MTL - Lord of the Mysteries-v6 Chapter 15 Brand of death
Salinger, who is wandering blankly in the "Eternal Dark River", looked at Klein wrapped in a gray "silk cocoon".
His pair of pale flames, whose eyes are about to extinguish, instantly reflected the bird-shaped golden ornaments on Klein's chest.
The next second, a low roar came from his decaying mouth, echoing over the river, causing the entire city of Calderon to shake visibly.
The one sometimes rolled up, sometimes fell, sometimes dark, and sometimes the pale tributary rose up, towards the end of the stone staircase, crazy towards Klein.
In this process, the illusory tide is more combined with the gray fog, showing a similar color.
The gray torrent beat Kline's body wave after wave, but he couldn't destroy the "silkworm cocoon" around him.
"Death" Salinger's decaying body stepped to the edge of the tributary step by step, but he couldn't get away from it, he could only stand there and roar wildly.
Klein's gaze passed over him, and he looked at the indistinct, fuzzy figures hovering on both sides of the tributary.
Some of them have been swept up by the rising tide to the center of the tributary, and it is difficult to contain and sink to the bottom of the river, melting like frost.
The remaining ones did not have any fear, remained in a state of confusion, and walked back and forth forever.
At a glance, Klein saw many familiar figures.
They all belong to the same person, belong to the bronze of the complexion, and the facial features are soft.
The "death governor" seemed to split into multiple selves, wandering blankly between the pale stone pillars on either side of the "Eternal Dark River".
This ... while Klein's heart moved, his right leg suddenly felt cold.
He lowered his head subconsciously and saw a pale palm.
The palm penetrated the gray "cocoon" and caught him on his calf.
And the owner of this palm sinks and flows in the torrents, like a water ghost, to pull Klein into the deep water.
Its attack can ignore the breath of "Yuanbao"!
Sensing Klein's gaze, the owner of the pale palm raised his head, revealing his face.
He has black hair and brown eyes, ordinary facial features, and a little bookishness.
Klein Moretti!
This "water ghost" is Klein Moretti!
The next second, Klein's left leg, right shoulder, and left arm were also caught by different pale palms.
This made him cold, the spirit seemed to freeze, all the extraordinary abilities could not be used, and even the struggle was difficult to manage.
The three pale palms belong to different fuzzy figures, and these different fuzzy figures have the same face.
Klein Moretti's face!
Under the drag of these four "water ghosts", Klein's body gradually detached from the gray "cocoon" and sank into the torrent.
His body is getting colder and colder, his thoughts are gradually quieter, his vision is a little bit darker, and finally there are only swaying, lightless waves.
Above the fog, in the ancient palace, Klein's consciousness returned to the body.
Then, without hesitation, he protruded his palm and used the power of "Yuanbao" to steal an item from the latter through his connection with the historical projection.
A flash of gold flashed, and Klein grabbed the bird-shaped gold ornament.
At the same time, he lifted the maintenance of historical pore images.
The figure of "drowning to death" in the ever-dark flood disappeared.
"You can ignore the breath of" Yuanbao ", which shows that the four figures are really me ... But how can I be trapped in the tributary of the" Eternal Dark River "and wander endlessly? Four figures, four figures Figure ... "Klein tapped the edge of the mottled table with a dignified expression, inspired by Tuk Tuk's voice.
Corresponding to the "four" and "soul," "death" fact is that he has died four times, resurrected four times.
Of course, after becoming a "hidden waiter", the four resurrection opportunities have been reset.
"Every death, regardless of whether it is successfully resurrected, will leave a mark in the" Eternal Dark River "? I died four times, so there are four figures wandering around the" Eternal Dark River "?" Klein roughly grasped When it came to the key, he sighed in his heart, "'The River of Eternal Darkness' deserves to be the source, deserves to be a symbol of death, eternal sleep, end point, end, darkness, etc ... This is what the goddess said. In other words, is there an unusual danger? Well, when the historical projection was drowned just now, I suffered a certain level of mental damage. If my mental state is unstable, there may be a problem now. "
Based on this inference, Klein has a new understanding of the numerous Aztec figures and the wandering "death" Salinger:
They are all the corresponding brand of death.
"Mr. Aztec did die many times during the 'undead' phase, and later in the process of searching for memories, but only survived each time. According to the current situation, although the 'undead' don't die, there are also many There is a big hidden danger. When there are more deaths, maybe one day the body will be attracted to the river of eternal darkness. It has become one of the eternal wandering figures ... Salinger has only one figure ... This shows After containing the uniqueness, his own brand of death will also be unique. "Klein thought of teleporting, some worried about the future state of Mr. Azik.
There are two ways to solve the hidden dangers in this respect. One is to fill the soul of Azik so that he will not repeat it. The other is to help the "Goddess of Night" become an old day and control this "eternal darkness". River".
"Oh, maybe this is a two-in-one choice: the goddess has become an old day, so there is no need to use Mr. Azik's half of his soul." Klein concentrated his thoughts and turned his attention back to this time. on.
He went into the depths of Calderon, not to resolve the imprint of the death of Salinger, the "god of death", so that he no longer had the hope of resurrection, but to take some water from the river of eternal darkness.
"Obviously, the illusory tide flowing out of the river will not work, this is just a diffuse breath, not the river itself. Also, the river with the gray mist will not work, it is not pure enough, and it should not achieve the expected effect. Only when the tributary turns back into the dark state can the river water be taken. Oh, the trunk cannot enter at all, and the gray mist must be a solid barrier. "Klein quickly drew up a plan based on his analysis.
That is, not to be close to the "Eternal Dark River" and not to attract the attention of "Death God" Salinger, wait for the tributary to fall back, become dark, and then pass directly, letting your own four death marks drag on the historical projection Sink towards the bottom of the river.
In this process, the historical projection seized the opportunity to use the bird-shaped gold jewelry to fetch some river water, and then, the consciousness was transferred back to the "source castle", relying on the "stealing" ability and the close connection between the two, took the bird-shaped gold jewelry .
After refining the next steps, Klein returned to the spiritual city outside Calderon and summoned his own historical pore image again.
He repeated the previous process and quickly returned to the stone monument with the bronze giant bird statue, walking down the gray stone stairs step by step.
The atmosphere of "Yuanbao" around him gradually became rich, and turned into a thin "cocoon".
It didn't take long for Klein to reach the end of the stairs again, to see the "eternal dark river" flowing in the void, to see the pale giant pillars on both sides and the countless blurred figures wandering on the edge of the tributary.
This time, he didn't rush forward, stepped off the stairs, and waited patiently on the spot, waiting for the tributary river to fall back, fade away, and become dark.
It's now! Klein's figure flashed, stealing the distance, and appeared in a corner of "Death" Salinger who could not see.
No accident, as his body dipped into the water of the "Eternal Dark River", a pale palm immediately penetrated the breath of "Yuanbao" and grabbed his legs and arms.
His four death marks appeared around him, and he was to be dragged towards the bottom of the river!
The deep river flooded Klein's head, leaving him cold and silent.
Before completely losing consciousness, a transparent twisted worm was drilled out of Klein's neck. They quickly climbed to the bird-shaped gold ornament, surrounded it, and lifted it up, ready to absorb the "Eternal Darkness" River water.
At this moment, a huge shadow appeared in the unreal river swaying in front of Klein's eyes.
It was a giant bird completely submerged by the tributary of the "Eternal Dark River" and suspended in the water.
The body of this giant bird is covered with feathers woven by pale flames and mysterious patterns, but has been melted a lot by the "Eternal Dark River", exposing part of the dark, decaying skin with yellowish pus.
The eyes of the giant bird look like bronze casting, and there are layers of unreal gates hidden inside.
Gree Carrie, the ancestor of the undead bird!
The ancient grim reaper who opened up the underworld!
In Gregorian's eyes, the bronze light burst out, covering the bird-shaped gold ornament and Klein's historical projection at once, and they were to be dragged together.
After weighing the current situation, Klein made an instant decision and gave up the attempt to draw the river.
His consciousness immediately returned to the "Yuanbao" and stolen the bird-shaped gold ornament.
His historical projection dissipated accordingly.
There are also dangers in the water ... The ancient god, Gree Carrie, the ancestor of the undead bird, has completely sunk into the "Eternal Dark River" ... If the goddess really accommodated the uniqueness of the "death" way, if Salinger could not take the opportunity His resurrection in the body should also sink into the water like Grey Carrie, and Grey Carrie's death mark will be further melted ... Klein silently sighed a few words and modified the action plan accordingly.
Immediately afterwards, he summoned the historical pore image as before and returned to the end of the ladder.
After waiting for a while, until "Spirit" Salinger turned around and walked slowly and slowly towards the river, Klein suddenly stolen the distance and appeared in front of each other.
The next second, Salinger made a low roar, causing the water of the tributary to rise rapidly.
At the same time, Klein was caught by his own brand of death, and dragged to the bottom of the river, sensing the undead bird ancestor Gree Carrie.
As before, Gregor's bronze eyes glowed.
However, this piece of light shrouded not Klein and bird-shaped gold ornaments, but Salinger, the "death".
"grafting"!
Seizing this short opportunity, the "spirit bugs" crawling out of Klein's historical projection lifted the bird-shaped gold ornaments.
The bronze eyeballs of this ornament also radiate light and draw a small amount of river water.
In the next moment, Klein's consciousness returned to the "Yuanbao" and raised his hand to retrieve the ornament.
Huh, it's finally done ... Looking at the bird-shaped gold ornament in his palm, he exhaled slowly.
For the owner of "Yuanbao", this task is really not too difficult. As long as you do not recklessly enter with the body, you can rely on repeated failures to accumulate experience and figure out the situation.
And if there are two "death gods" in the tributary of the "Eternal Dark River", one wanders and the other sinks, Klein will not fail twice.
