Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

The "Cinderella" at the angel level can not only change her appearance, image and temperament, but as long as she masters enough and correct knowledge, she can also gain part of the ability to change her goals as her image changes.

In this state, he noticed the changes in the environment under the influence of the "ugly duckling". The rules around him became extremely conspicuous, and it seemed that he could easily deceive it and tamper with it.

Renekton reached forward, took out an illusory hat from the void, and put it on his head.

His figure then disappeared, disappearing all traces.

Amon, who maintained the form of a mythical creature, did not restrain himself. Instead, many insects of time separated from his body and merged into the light and shadow that were swimming and wandering around him, making it difficult to tell which one of them was real and which one was fake.

After a moment, a transparent figure emerged from the shadow of the distant building ruins and gradually became solid.

He looks very similar to Amon, in terms of his clothing, appearance and temperament, except for the fact that he doesn't have the iconic monocle on his right eye.

Several phantoms of the Time Worm wandering in mid-air suddenly merged and turned into the image of Amon with a monocle. He put one hand behind his back and held the other hand forward while speaking:

"Why don't you also put on the monocle, so that you can be closer to me and this unique spell of yours can have more effect."

Renekton chuckled and said:

"Then I was parasitized by you in an instant?"

While speaking, his figure flashed rapidly and appeared in various places in the ruins of the city, but the figure that stayed in front of Amon never disappeared.

More and more Amon figures appeared around, and they all reached forward to grab hold of them. From time to time, gravel, rusty iron pieces and other items appeared in their hands.

His confrontation with Amon devolved into a constant process of stealing and having stolen locations, twisting and tampering with stolen targets.

Amon's clones kept appearing around him, some were busy stealing, some were looking around, and some were chatting with Renekton:

"You have the talent to be a 'thief', do you really not consider changing your career path?"

"The True Self can help you steal the characteristics of the 'Sage' and below in your body, and you can safely jump to a new path."

"The 'Stealer' and the top of the adjacent path are still empty, and the top of this path is still the pillar-level 'Old Days'. Are you really not tempted?"

Snapped!

Renekton, who had been unable to successfully steal his position, suddenly raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The sound was amplified and distorted into an air cannon that could destroy a huge sailboat.

The one who was attacked by the air cannon was the Amon standing in front of him. At the same time, all the surrounding Amon's bodies showed signs of tearing, like a newspaper torn apart by the strong wind, instantly falling apart.

Renekton distorted the target of the attack, turning it into all the Amon present. They were essentially one person. This distortion was easily completed.

In mid-air, the torn apart Amons became illusory and erratic, turning into the light and shadow of the insects of time again, wandering around.

"Interesting, it turns out that you carry a magical item from the 'Black Emperor' pathway. No wonder you dare to confront me on the rules level."

"I remember that this magical item didn't exist when I saw you last time. Where did you find it? Or did you rely on the 'Fool' to get it from the outside world?"

"Oh, it seems to be the latter."

Amon's voice seemed ethereal and unreal, echoing from the dust in the air, the shadows in the corners, and the stone slabs and soil on the ground.

Renekton did not answer Amon's words, but raised his head slightly and looked at the sky where lightning flashed from time to time. The deep blue and almost purple glow in his eyes brightened for a moment, and he recited in a low voice:

"Light!"

His body was dyed with a touch of gold, and countless golden light spots emerged around his body, radiating out circles of pure, clear, warm white light.

The moment this light emerged, every corner of Chernobyl was illuminated, leaving no blind spots or shadows.

Under the pure and clear light, the shadows of the Time Insects swimming and wandering in the air quickly became fainter until they disappeared.

The affected environment returned to normal instantly. Renekton took a step forward and disappeared instantly.

The next moment, his figure reappeared on the gray street hundreds of meters away, and returned to his original appearance.

Less than five meters directly in front of him, Amon, wearing a white coat, walked out of the void. He raised his hand and pinched the monocle on his right eye.

Boom! Boom!

Silver-white electric snakes jumped out of the air, carrying a violent and destructive aura that was as strong as real substance, and landed around Renekton, drowning his figure.

On the ground, silver-white electric snakes were scurrying around, making crackling sounds.

This state lasted for about two or three seconds, and the dazzling silvery white faded away. Renekton still stood in the same position as before. Under his feet, there was a scorched black pit with some red and fine electric current.

Renekton was just here and there out of thin air, as if he didn't exist at all. He looked at Amon calmly, and his figure suddenly twisted and reappeared, directly behind Amon.

Amon turned around calmly and asked at the same time:

"How did you discover my attack intention? Logically speaking, apart from detecting and evading this lightning attack in advance, it is difficult to dodge it by relying on one's own reactions."

"It's difficult, but not impossible." Renekton replied in a low voice.

Amon nodded thoughtfully and said, "I probably know what you are."

After saying that, he stepped forward, crossed Renekton neither quickly nor slowly, and walked towards the depths of Chernobyl. As he walked, he said:

"Deep in this city, there is a pit that goes straight to the depths of the earth. It is connected to the 'Sea of ​​Chaos'. Are you interested in taking a look?"

Amon's temptation was over, and Renekton was not interested in continuing to fight with him. Although he could rely on his special personality to suppress the opponent's 'stealing', he could not do anything to the opponent other than that.

Stepping behind Amon, he said calmly: "I'm more curious about the third piece of information about the characteristics of the 'Emperor of Knowledge'."

Amon put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and said in a leisurely tone:

"In the Second Age, the authority of the 'Hermit' and the 'Perfect One' was scattered in the hands of various ancient gods. Among them, Lilith, Angelweed, and Sunia Thorem had the most control. "

"As far as I know, from the Second Age to the present, there are only two 'Knowledge Emperors' who have definitely appeared. The first one is the god of the big lizard of Angelweed, who fell to the giants a long time ago. In the conflict with the dragon, his characteristics were missing. The second one should be familiar to you, he is very well-known."

"Roselle Gustave." Renekton whispered Russell's name. He frowned slightly, feeling a little incredible that there have only been two "Knowledge Emperors" from the Second Age to the present. .

Amon raised his hand and pinched the monocle at his right eye, twitched the corner of his mouth and said:

"I also think that without the birth of Sequence 0, the frequency of the 'Emperor of Knowledge' appearing is a bit too low. However, it does not rule out that the Extraordinaries on this path are unlucky. After all, 'Secret Peepers' are very easy to die. Dropped."

Renekton subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Amon. Let him steal my thoughts again.

The figures of the two people who stopped talking flickered for a few times. They stole the position and twisted the distance. In a few breaths, they arrived at the edge of the deep pit that connected to the underground "Sea of ​​Chaos".

This was an ordinary-looking, approximately circular hole, with the edge of the hole stained with a layer of pitch black that was difficult to wash away.

As soon as Renekton stood at the edge of the pit, there was a faint sound like whimpering wind or strange murmuring echoing in his ears.

He frowned subconsciously, with a look of disgust on his face. He lowered his head and looked down, seeing nothing but darkness.

Amon asked at the right time: "Do you hate the breath of the 'Sea of ​​Chaos'?"

"Except for those who are omniscient and omnipotent in the five paths, I don't think anyone would like the aura of the 'Sea of ​​Chaos', unless they want to be compatible with more authority."

Renekton took a few steps back while speaking, and the deep lavender slowly flowing in his eyes gradually faded.

The will of the "God" in the "Sea of ​​Chaos" is not too strong. He didn't even notice my existence. Well, that may be the reason why I didn't go deep.

Thinking of "God", he suddenly turned his head and looked at Amon on the other side and asked:

"Do you think your father knows the whereabouts of the third 'Emperor of Knowledge' trait?"

"He is all-knowing and all-powerful." Amon tilted his chin slightly, his tone a little arrogant, but he did not answer Renekton's question directly.

Renekton looked at Amon and sneered: "It seems you are not sure either."

Amon did not show any mood swings because of his words, and said in a very calm tone:

"Why don't you ask the existing 'All-Knowing One'? Don't you have a good relationship with the betrayal dragon?"

"Why, are you also worried that he will betray you at the right time, seize the power of knowledge and civilization, and become the new 'Demon of Knowledge'?"

Renekton shook his head slowly and said with a very firm tone:

"Absolute rationality allows him to make the decision that is most beneficial to him. This kind of blind and impulsive gambling behavior is not something that a born mythical creature like him can make."

"People change, and so does God."

Amon sighed vaguely, and his figure instantly turned into countless rays of pale white light, flowing into the void and disappearing.

Renekton glanced at the place where Amon disappeared, then looked down at the hole leading directly to the "Sea of ​​Chaos" deep underground, and said in a low voice:

"Your breath is as disgusting as ever."

As soon as he finished speaking, his body instantly became blurry and decomposed into streams of complex knowledge, rushing away into the distance.
