"To be honest, I'm a little nervous now." After finishing the preparations, Klein exhaled softly and said in a low voice.
"Do you need me to cheer you on?" Lin Ruo, who had come back to his senses, no longer dwelled on what the Evernight Goddess's actions meant, and said with a smile.
"If possible, wish me success!" Klein said, exhaling softly, his eyes then becoming firm.
He took a step and began to walk the square counterclockwise.
"The Immortal Lord of Heaven and Earth for Blessings;
"The Sky Lord of Heaven and Earth for Blessings;
"The Exalted Thearch of Heaven and Earth for Blessings;
"The Celestial Worthy of Heaven and Earth for Blessings."
Each step was accompanied by a title of reverence. Lin Ruo watched him complete the four steps, and then saw a hint of pain on the other's face.
He was naturally not surprised by this, he simply blinked his eyes and instinctively wanted to stir up trouble using the connection between himself and Klein... Huh? Stir up trouble?
Lin Ruo, who had already instinctively begun a certain operation, was stunned for a moment. He then sensed with some astonishment something that had appeared in his perception after his instinctive action.
Almost at the same moment, sharp and noisy murmurs rang in his ears, as if countless people were speaking, and all of them were speaking words of madness.
A slight mist appeared before Lin Ruo's eyes, as if something was about to appear.
But the next second, as if the video being played had been paused, everything disappeared.
At the same time, a thought arose in Lin Ruo's mind—
The Sefirah Castle refused to establish a connection with him!
Wait, was he just instinctively trying to establish a connection with the Sefirah Castle?
Lin Ruo reacted, and then was filled with astonishment.
Because his actions just now had really scared him. Not to mention that he had no intention of snatching the Sefirah Castle from Klein, the fact that he had tried to connect with the Sefirah Castle as casually as eating a meal was terrifying. The mere fact of his actions just now had a point that Lin Ruo couldn't understand at all.
How could he do such an operation?
Lin Ruo couldn't help but frown. He almost immediately searched his memory, but no matter how he searched, he couldn't find the source of this knowledge, as if everything was so natural. When he wanted to do something, his brain acquired the knowledge out of thin air.
But how was that possible?
"Did I... forget something?"
Lin Ruo frowned. His memories were still the same as before, but the bizarre situation he was now facing made Lin Ruo suspect that his memories were missing a part. For example, he hadn't actually just arrived in the world of 'Lord of the Mysteries', but had already been here for some time and had learned the corresponding knowledge, but had forgotten it for some reason.
But after exploring his brain for a long time without finding even a shred of evidence, he could only put this matter aside for the time being. He glanced at Klein, who had obviously entered the Sefirah Castle. Although he was a little sorry that he couldn't witness the birth of 'The Fool' and the establishment of the Tarot Club, he wasn't swayed by this regret for too long, and instead began to think about other things.
Without a doubt, according to the development of the original plot, Dunn and Leonard, the Nighthawks of the Evernight Church, would come to him because of the Fourth Epoch notebook that had caused the original Klein Moretti and his classmates to commit suicide. Then, after experiencing a series of trials and reflections, Klein would join the Nighthawks and officially begin his journey to become a god in three years and save the world from the Outer Deities in five years.
Lin Ruo was happy to see this development. After all, even if he didn't mention the Goddess's attention, simply joining the Nighthawks could bring a lot of help to him and Klein—the various mystical basic knowledge that could be systematically learned in the Nighthawks was much more than what a wild Beyonder could learn. This was undoubtedly a good thing for both Lin Ruo and Klein.
After all, for the two of them, Klein, of course, was a complete newbie who had never been exposed to the Beyonder world. And Lin Ruo was seriously specialized—having read the original work, he understood many secrets, but he knew very little about the many mystical basic knowledge that wouldn't be written in detail in the original work, and also needed to make up lessons.
But making up lessons was making up lessons. Whether it was him or Klein, they obviously had to leave the comfortable environment of the Nighthawks later.
After all, limited by various factors, Klein couldn't become a Lord of the Mysteries if he stayed in the Nighthawks all the time. And Lin Ruo didn't think that he could find a way to get rid of his spiritual body state if he stayed in the Nighthawks all the time.
Of course, Lin Ruo knew that if he didn't intervene next, Klein would almost certainly embark on the same path as the original plot, and after dying with the captain due to Ince and 0-08's schemes, he would be resurrected by the Sefirah Castle and embark on a journey of revenge alone.
But Lin Ruo really didn't intend to stand idly by.
He didn't consider himself a partner of justice, but he respected the lives of the innocent, respected heroes and guardians, and hated those who didn't treat the lives of the innocent as lives. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to engage in revolution in his previous life to change the status of ordinary people.
Meeting Ince, a dog who caused the descent of the offspring of the evil god and promoted the Backlund smog incident for his own selfish desires, and killed countless people, his heart to kill him could be said to be ready to move.
Not to mention that now he was bound to Klein and was being watched by the Evernight Goddess, he had already stepped into this vortex. Under such circumstances, Lin Ruo wouldn't naively think that he could avoid everything by doing nothing.
Compared to being pushed forward by fate by then, Lin Ruo preferred to take the initiative to meet it and grasp fate in his own hands.
"Well, with the Concealment Badge, there's no need to worry about being detected by that pen." Tossing the Concealment Badge in his hand, which was playing its role, Lin Ruo's eyes were somewhat deep.
To deal with Ince, the first thing to consider was naturally 0-08, which was a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact in Ince's hand.
0-08 was not an easy guy to deal with. First of all, its characteristic of 'You know it, it knows you. The more you know it, the easier it is to enter its story' could make more than 90% of the people who wanted to deal with it feel numb. However, now that Lin Ruo had the protection of concealment, he didn't need to worry about this aspect.
Secondly, there was the scope and strength of 0-08 when arranging the fate of others.
From the information given in the original work, Lin Ruo knew that the range that 0-08 could affect was basically as large as Backlund, and the strength could be referred to the event in the original work where 0-08 had caused an angel to fall in the Fourth Epoch.
However, it was fortunate that, because of the incompetence of Ince, the user, 0-08 was likely unable to exert its peak abilities now. Moreover, it couldn't increase Ince's frontal combat power much, otherwise, why would Ince need to use the offspring of the evil god as a knife? He could just take 0-08 and kill his way into the Tingen Nighthawks team.
Moreover, to be honest, as a veteran in arranging others, Lin Ruo had never been afraid of anyone in this field. The Transcendents of that year were all arranged by him clearly, and they were also existences that could destroy a city alone.
However, he couldn't be too impulsive. He still had to consider it carefully!
Lin Ruo continued to toss the Concealment Badge, falling into deep thought.
