Chapter 500 The Disappearing Grandpa
This is a double-edged sword, and Amon also dared not trust the High-Dimensional Overlooker.
The reason why He let Pallez leave this time was that he was worried that the High-Dimensional Overlooker would suddenly block His way back. In this way, He might really not be able to leave.
Hasta thought about various possibilities, then sighed softly, leaned back on the chair, and looked around at Backlund under the Hall of Stars.
He needed to create an avatar that could exist in the Hall of Stars for a long time to help him monitor at all times.
The stars watched everything, but to do this, it was only possible to stay in the Hall of Stars.
And the main body could not stay in the Hall of Stars every day.
The Star Container was not a good choice either. After all, He took it from the real Creator, and it was not pure enough.
If He awakened his consciousness in his body and took over the Hall of Stars, that was definitely not what he wanted to see.
"You must not have self-awareness, and you don't have to be limited to avatars..."
Hasta thought for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a better solution.
When he heard someone calling him in the real world, Hastur left the Hall of Stars, got up and opened the door to go out.
Leonard was frightened by Amon's stop, and he could not think of a good place to go, so he had to turn back. Pales followed Leonard back.
"Hasta, I was really scared just now. I almost never saw you again."
Leonard trembled slightly, and there was still fear on his face and eyes that could not be dispelled for a long time.
"Have a cup of hot tea first to warm up your body." Hastur asked someone to prepare hot tea, indicating Leonard to put aside his worries.
"Amon, I will not give up this opportunity. He will come again." Pales was also worried about his future.
"Is there no good way to deal with Amon?" Hastur asked.
"It's difficult. The extraordinary path of a thief is full of fraud, decryption, deception, fate, etc. from Sequence 9 onwards. Amon is proficient in these. It is difficult to plot against him, even with the secret protection provided by the Goddess of Night."
"He can always use an inconspicuous little flaw or loophole to easily see the overall situation. In addition, he has a bad personality and is a loner, so it is even more difficult to plan against him."
"Otherwise, with his character, he would have been dealt with by the Lord of Storms and other gods. The reason why he was let go is that the cost of dealing with him is too high and may not be effective."
Hasta listened silently to Pallez's introduction to Amon, which was not comprehensive enough.
Amon also has Adam and the True Creator behind him. This is why the three true gods, the Lord of Storms, the Eternal Sun, and the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, have never been able to deal with Amon.
Even if the Goddess of Night is willing to provide them with secrets, they will doubt whether the Goddess of Night is teaming up with Adam and Amon to hunt them down.
In addition, the three of them are hostile to each other and are full of vigilance.
In short, in dealing with Amon and Adam, the three of them can only be used as extras, not as the main force.
Counting the combat power on his side and Klein's side, it is still very difficult to encircle Amon.
After all, Amon is not the incarnation of an outer god, but the mortal enemy of all true gods, and he must be eliminated.
There are many hidden existences who are still willing to bet on Amon to become a god and have the hope of competing for the position of the future Lord of Mysteries
At night, Leonard, who stayed in Hasta Villa to rest, finally waited for Klein's dream.
In the dream, Leonard seemed to hear someone muttering: Don't wake others up in the middle of the night every time.
Leonard deeply understood this sentence.
"Amon is here. I just met him today. It was his real body." Leonard briefly explained the situation.
"I understand." Klein just nodded calmly.
"Can the Fool provide shelter for the old man?"
"It can only provide a certain degree of shelter."
Klein said this with a guilty conscience. As a Beyonder of the same adjacent path, Amon is also his natural enemy.
However, he is still preparing for the promotion to Sequence 4 Trickster, so his strength is relatively weak, and he generally won't attract Amon's covetousness.
As for Mr. Fool, despite having Sefirah Castle as his trump card, he himself does not have the ability to confront Amon head-on.
Among the people he knows, only Will, the mercury snake, has a certain ability to fight Amon, but he also has his own natural enemy Ouroboros.
The other messenger ladies and Mr. Azik are only Sequence 2, and it is still very difficult for them to face Amon, the king of angels.
"Does Mr. Fool have a way to deal with Amon?" Leonard asked this question with hope.
It's so direct... Klein could only find a temporary excuse to evade this sharp question, "The thoughts of a person like Mr. Fool are not something we can speculate."
"Alas..."
Leonard sighed heavily and didn't ask any more questions.
After the dream ended, Klein, who had temporarily left Backlund and was collecting extraordinary materials needed to promote to Trickster in the distance, also sighed heavily facing Backlund.
He really wanted to help Leonard and Pales overcome the difficulties. After all, Amon was too terrifying. Once He took away the Sequence 1 Time Worm from Pales, Amon would be just one step away from becoming a god.
This was his future opponent. If He grew too fast, he would definitely be like Pales, hiding from Him everywhere like a little mouse.
"It's almost time. By the end of the year, I should be able to find all the extraordinary materials, finish my role, and be promoted to a Sequence 4 Trickster."
Thinking of this, Klein felt a little more relaxed. At least he was catching up step by step.
As for how to solve the Amon matter, he didn't have any good ideas. He could only place his hope on Hastur, who was still in Backlund.
Well, all the respect to Mr. Hastur.
…
In the early morning, the fog in Backlund's sky had not yet been dispelled, but most of the haze in Leonard's heart had been dispelled.
After thinking about it all night, Mr. Hastur finally gave him a relatively feasible solution to his current situation.
That is to let Pales continue to hide.
It sounds like this is just a very simple and negative method, but it can prevent Pales from being found by Amon in a short period of time and buy some time.
Catching Amon is by no means a simple matter and requires long-term planning to have a chance.
Another reason is that Hastur doesn't want his home to become a battlefield. Amon is watching his life from outside every day. This feeling is really uncomfortable.
Moreover, the behavior of hiding is in line with Pales' character. The key question is where to hide to be safer.
At present, in Backlund, the goddess of the night is no longer reliable. The God of Steam and Machinery will not offend Amon and Adam for Pales.
As for the Lord of Storms, he is indeed hostile to Amon, but if Pales is allowed to enter his church, maybe he will directly take away the extraordinary characteristics of the Time Worm in Pales and bring it to his own kingdom of God, so that he can Amon will never be able to get it together and become a god.
The three gods are unreliable, and the current Fool is a parallel import. The stars don’t want their doorstep to become a battlefield.
Therefore, the option Hastur suggested to Pales was to hide in the history of the Fourth Age.
Zaratul is also hiding there, just repaying him with retaliation.
Although Pales's condition is not very good, Zaratul cannot deal with it casually. In addition, there are also star containers that block the history of the Fourth Age with the fog of history.
Once Amon is really found, he will definitely not be able to get around the star container.
Pales was happy when he heard this, "Hahaha... This bastard Zaratul caused me to be targeted by Amon. I want to cause some trouble for him, so I will go to the fourth era of history!"
Although Leonard was reluctant to give up, he also knew that this should be the best solution at the moment.
"Old man, please pay attention to your own safety." Leonard's eyes were slightly red, as if he was about to send his own grandfather away.
"Boy, you should worry more about yourself. Amon has already seen you. If nothing happens, try to stay in St. Samuel's Church. Archbishop Anthony is not bad."
Pales emerged from Leonard's body as a phantom, clearly the image of an old man, but his facial features were covered, as if shrouded in a layer of mist, making it impossible for Leonard to see clearly.
Hastur could clearly see that Pales' overall temperament was similar to that of Leonard, but it was just a little more accumulated over the years. Although his facial features were old, he could still see that he was definitely a person who could not be defeated when he was young. Leonard's handsome boy.
It is estimated that Palles had a similar temperament to Leonard when he was young.
This may be the reason why Palles has always chosen to be a parasite in Leonard's body. Watching Leonard grow up is like watching himself when he was young.
Pales originally wanted to pat Leonard on the head, and then laugh and mock: Such a big man is still crying like this.
But in the end, He just stroked Leonard's head gently, like a kind grandfather saying goodbye to his beloved grandson.
Before Leonard could react, Leonard entered the fourth era of history with the help of the star container, and was under the same historical sky as Zaratul.
The difference is that Zaratul is hiding in his own secret piece of history.
When the mists of history cover up and once again block the way to the history of the Fourth Age, the star containers merge silently into the mists of history.
After sending Pales away, Hastur looked at Leonard with a solemn expression, "In order to conceal Pales's whereabouts, I need to erase your relevant memories of knowing Pales' movements. This is a complete erasure and cannot be done anymore. recover."
Leonard opened his mouth, and finally nodded silently, allowing Hastur to erase this part of his memory.
In order to prevent Amon from retrieving the corresponding memory fragments from Leonard's memory, Hastur first completely erased this part of the memory and then used his secret authority to process it.
When the memory erasure was completed, Leonard was stunned for a moment, then looked at Hastur with a blank expression and said: "Old man, where did he go, old man? Why can't I sense his presence?"
Leonard put his hands on Hastur's shoulders and shook them eagerly, "Could he have been captured by Amon?"
He just felt like there was an empty corner in his heart, and a silent sadness flowed from that empty corner to all parts of his body.
"This is for your own good."
Hastur finally gave Leonard only this answer.
