Chapter 1236: The Best Support

May 29, 2021 · 6 min read · 1,180 words

The three-tiered jewelry box, silver-black and inlaid with multiple gems, was quickly opened, revealing the scene inside the second layer.

It was profoundly dark, as if even the surrounding barrier had merged into it, giving a feeling of having no boundaries or bottom.

In the next instant, countless brilliant specks of light lit up in that darkness, turning it into a miniature starry sky, a miniature universe.

These brilliant points of light spun rapidly, causing the scene around it to change multiple times in a single second.

Klein's plan was to transfer the "Divine Abomination" , the Rose School's "Witch King," and a large number of believers and vassals within range to the God War Ruins, removing them from the Southern Continent so they couldn't immediately detect that Karaman was also under attack and provide effective assistance. However, the second layer of the "Box of the Old Days" had an element of randomness. It could only "release" a specified scene a small fraction of the time. In the vast majority of cases, the chosen location would inevitably undergo a strange mutation. This couldn't be influenced by accumulating luck, at least not by anyone below Sequence 0.

So, after opening the second layer of the "Box of the Old Days," Klein had no idea what would happen, and his heart was filled with anxiety, like pushing all his chips to the center of a poker table without relying on supernatural powers to cheat, purely based on observation. Of course, he wasn't overly worried. No matter where the "Box of the Old Days" took him and Miss Messenger, it couldn't substantially harm him. After all, Reinette Tynakol was fake, the "Box of the Old Days" was fake, and he himself was also fake.

Considering this, even if the "Box of the Old Days" threw him into the depths of the earth, facing that terrible corruption, Klein could instantly dispel the Historical Void Projection, enter the Sefirah Castle, perform a thorough "disinfection," and sever the connection.

On this basis, he had the ability to help Miss Messenger's original body resist the corruption. He wasn't bearing it directly; with the layer of the historical projection in between, it was relatively much better.

The only thing Klein had to worry about was if the random scene chosen by the "Box of the Old Days" was exactly the place where Miss and Emlyn were attacking the "Witch King" Karaman. If so, he would be leading the enemy's main force straight to their own headquarters. He would have to consider abandoning the operation, dividing the work with Reinette Tynakol, and leading the other participants out of the battlefield to flee the Southern Continent.

The probability of this happening was very low, but he had to guard against it.

At this moment, due to the influence of the "Divine Abomination" Suah's aura, Klein's spirituality had "congealed" considerably, as if binding his body and soul, but it still surged violently into the "Box of the Old Days," maintaining its opening.

In the blink of an eye, the scene inside the second layer of the "Box of the Old Days" changed, revealing a miniature, vast sea of sand.

Klein, Reinette Tynakol, the "Divine Abomination" Suah, the hooded "Witch King," and a large number of Rose School believers and vassals all saw the endless yellow sand and felt the extreme cold of the night.

Except for the projection of the "Bound God," all living creatures on this battlefield were instantly transferred to a desert!

And that projection, due to the departure of the "Divine Abomination" Suah, lost its connection and could no longer penetrate its power into reality.

Without bothering to examine where they currently were, Klein dispelled the "Box of the Old Days," snapped his fingers, and summoned streams of crimson flame out of thin air, jumping continuously among them.

He did this to avoid the gaze of the "Divine Abomination" Suah and seize the opportunity to complete the summoning of the Historical Void Projection.

Just then, an extremely evil and strange roar echoed in his ears, his mind went blank, and he briefly lost all thought.

The crimson flames he was in came to life, like a cage, tightly binding him in place.

With just a roar and the influence of some aura, the "Divine Abomination" Suah had initially restrained Klein.

If not for having a full-strength Reinette Tynakol as a teammate, Klein's projection would have been effortlessly dealt with next, and his original body might have even been affected.

At this moment, the castle-sized giant cloth doll took a step forward and opened its tightly shut mouth.

No sound came out, but the twisted "tree" covered in black liquid seemed to be hit by a flood from a burst dam, swaying backward, raising arms covered in strange protrusions.

This was the curse that Reinette Tynakol had accumulated and stored up during her long silence, stemming from the rage, hatred, and malice that emerged after the brutal attack she suffered!

However, the "Divine Abomination" Suah did not show any obvious changes. It merely swayed for a moment, stiffened for a second, and then returned to normal.

High-level existences on the same Pathway always had a special advantage over lower-sequence Beyonders, and could even exert a certain influence from a distance!

Seizing this opportunity, Klein broke free from the flames, switched to "," and flashed to the other side, dodging the "Blood Moon Arrow" created by the Rose School's "Witch King."

He didn't dare look directly at the "Divine Abomination" Suah. Seizing the time, he stretched out his right hand and reached into the void ahead.

This time, he didn't summon anything.

Klein continued to "flash," repeating the previous action. Then, he successfully pulled out a figure. It was the leader of the ascetic order of the , dressed in a simple linen robe with a tree-bark belt, the Angel of the Concealed domain, !

So the previous report was effective… Klein thought for a flash, then activated "Creeping Hunger" again and "teleported" somewhere else.

The pupils of Arianna's projection moved, her gaze instantly turning profound, and then she joined the battle of Reinette Tynakol against the "Divine Abomination" Suah.

With her help, Reinette Tynakol, who had been in a difficult situation and was trying to create opportunities for Klein, finally caught her breath and was not possessed by the consciousness of the "Divine Abomination" Suah, turning into a real ragdoll.

The Rose School's "Witch King" displayed his comprehensiveness in the domains of "Darkness" and "Moon," trying to restrict Klein's movement with spells like "Abyss Shackles," but short-distance "flash" was simply too useful. Without the influence of the "Bound God's" projection on the surrounding area and the interference of the "Divine Abomination" Suah, Klein was like a fish returning to the sea, swimming freely and comfortably. It was only during the intervals between two "teleports" that he had to consider countering the enemy's spells.

However, that "Witch King" couldn't predict where he would appear next, making it difficult to effectively stop him.
