Chapter 45

Tíngēn City, Zuótélán Street

On the sign of a building, a line of words was written: Blackthorn Security Company

Standing at the stairwell entrance, looking at the name on the sign, Klein momentarily lost himself

This company appeared to be an ordinary security company, but in fact it was the organization of Beyonders of the Church of the Night in Tingen City, the base of the Night Watch team

A few months ago, Klein, who had just 'transmigrated' over, due to having experienced a supernatural incident, coincidentally joined the Night Watch team and became a Beyonder

'Has it really been that long?'

A low voice sounded, looking at the familiar name on the sign, Klein's spirit became somewhat dazed for a moment

He didn't know why, but he always felt that in the past month or so, time seemed to pass quickly, and before he had any impression, it was already over

Clearly, in the past month or so, he had experienced many supernatural incidents, and his companions had consequently sacrificed several, allowing him to truly witness the danger and madness of the Beyonder world

But now, when recalling these things, Klein always had a feeling of being in a fog, subconsciously ignoring everything, as if all of this were like a movie he had once watched

'When did all of this start?'

This thought surfaced in his mind, and suddenly a figure wearing a hooded robe, dressed as a traveler, appeared in Klein's mind

'Did it start after that divination?'

Before he could deeply consider the details of that figure, a voice sounded in his ear: 'Klein, what's wrong with you?'

His train of thought was interrupted by that voice, and Klein subconsciously turned his head, seeing a familiar youth

'Leonard, you've come.'

After greeting the youth, Klein shook his head, dispelling the strange emotion that had just arisen in his heart, and softly said: 'I'm fine, I just suddenly felt a bit fatigued, possibly because I haven't rested well lately'

'Ah!'

Hearing Klein's words and seeing his expression, Leonard thought of recent events and couldn't help but sigh

Afterwards, he patted Klein's shoulder, Leonard didn't say much more, and walked into the gate

Looking at the companion's figure, Klein suddenly felt that the companion also seemed not quite right

'Perhaps I really need to rest a bit.'

As thoughts turned in his mind, Klein's spirit seemed to become dazed again

In an instant, everything around seemed to become a constantly changing scroll, with Klein inside the scroll, unable to control himself as he looked at everything around

In his daze, Klein saw the pitiful woman who had been deceived into pregnancy by the swindler Lan'lus come to the company

Before they could do anything, the pitiful girl suddenly underwent an aberration; it turned out that what she carried was the offspring of an evil god

If this evil god's offspring were to be born, the entire Tingen would be destroyed

At the critical moment, Klein and his companions fought desperately to prevent the evil god's offspring from descending

But right before Klein's eyes, his most respected captain, Dunn Smith, also died because of this

Although all of this was clearly so tragic, for some reason Klein had a feeling of being an outsider, his whole person in a dazed state, as if everything happening around were an illusion

When he finally came to his senses, the entire company had already been destroyed by the disaster of the evil god's offspring descending, and he happened to see Captain Dunn's pair of deep gray eyes lose all their color

'Captain!'

Indescribable grief welled up in his heart, but before Klein could act, his gaze was suddenly caught by a pallid hand

He subconsciously lowered his head and discovered that the hand had just pierced through his chest, stained with fresh blood

'Am I going to die?'

'What on earth is going on?'

'Why do I always have an unreal feeling?'

Before the thoughts in his heart could fully settle, Klein suddenly startled, his gaze drawn by a familiar gold coin

'This is the gold coin given to me by that mysterious traveler'

Hum

In Klein's dazed gaze, the gold coin that he didn't know when he had brought onto his person instantly transformed into a symbol resembling overlapping doors, which directly wound upward along the hand that had pierced his chest, as if forming some kind of seal

Klein's consciousness reached this point, and the next moment his vision became a sheet of darkness

However, for some reason, he had no feeling of fear; instead, he felt as if he wanted to wake from a dream

In his daze, he seemed to see again the figure wearing a hooded robe, dressed as a traveler, and truly saw the other's face

That was a handsome youth, with deep-set features, his light blue eyes like whirlpools, carrying a dreamy luster, seeming able to attract Klein's mind

At the moment he saw that youth, a distant voice sounded in Klein's ear: 'Mr. Moretti, life originally has no chance for a do-over, but you helped me with a divination once, giving me great aid, so I will repay you with karma, giving you a chance to start over; I hope you can cherish this opportunity and make up for your own regrets'

'Chance to start over'

This thought surfaced in his mind, and Klein's consciousness completely fell into darkness

Blackthorn Security Company

At this moment, this place had already become a ruin

However, as Fengyi's thoughts turned, the surrounding space continually shifted, as if time were rewinding, or as if the ruins were reassembling; fragments flew about and once again formed a complete house

After doing all this, Fengyi turned his gaze to a figure opposite and said with a smile: 'Mr. Ince Zangwill? I've been waiting for you for a long time!'

Opposite Fengyi, at this moment stood a middle-aged man with dark gold hair, holding a classical feather quill

He had only one good eye; that deep blue-near-black pupil contracted violently, incredulously gazing at the surrounding scenery

After a long while, he seemed to have received some information, then his voice slightly hoarse he opened his mouth: 'The world within the mirror?'

With a faint smile on his face, Fengyi had no intention of explaining to the other; instead, he lightly snapped his fingers

Seeing the action of the mysterious youth opposite, Ince Zangwill's pupil contracted violently, and he subconsciously looked toward his own arm

Hum

Countless symbols endlessly spread across his pallid arm, like a single wriggling worm, instantly covering the entire arm and then rapidly spreading to other parts of his body, utterly unstoppable

With the appearance of the sigils, he instantly felt that the spirituality within his body was like solidified cement, unable to be mobilized, as if directly sealed

"High-sequence powerhouse of the Gate Path!"

This thought arose in his mind; Yin Si. Zangewier showed no hesitation, quickly rotating the arm holding the classical feather pen, about to write something on his robe.

"Writing is forbidden here!"

A melodious voice sounded, instantly turning into some kind of rule, imprinted between heaven and earth.

In an instant, Yin Si. Zangewier's arm sank; his body seemed to be affected by some kind of rule, and the feather pen in his hand simply would not fall.

"High-sequence ability of the Arbiter Path?"

This thought arose in his mind, and Yin Si. Zangewier's eyes involuntarily showed a hint of despair.

Today's story was originally written for his demigod ritual, a ball for his ascension to demigod status!

But now, it seems to have become his own funeral.

Just who is this mysterious youth?

Why does he understand him so completely, calculating everything about him, leaving him no way to survive?

Just as Yin Si. Zangewier felt despair, the feather pen in his hand flew out, twitched, without his own control, automatically about to write something on his robe, completely unaffected by rule restrictions.

Obviously, seeing that his master Yin Si. Zangewier was unable, the 0-08 sealed item wanted to take over.
