Chapter 388: Amon's Explosion
Above the gray fog, Klein used Derrick as a window and, through the authority of the Source Castle, clearly saw the situation inside the City of Silver.
Originally, he intended to check if Mr. A had any means left by the True Creator so that he could remind Little Sun to be cautious of any danger.
Unexpectedly, upon looking, he saw that the entire City of Silver was densely populated with Amon's avatars, centered around the eagle standing on the central plaza's statue.
From tiny dust particles to larvae, moths, spiders, and rats, these creatures appeared normal on the surface, but in his eyes, they were all miniature versions of Amon!
He couldn't help but recall Will's warning: When one Amon appears, there are definitely many more hiding in the shadows.
Using an avatar as a center to continuously transform all living beings into versions of Amon was a common tactic of Amon.
Now, Amon was using this method against Mr. A, or more accurately, he was using Mr. A for amusement.
Although he had no fondness for Mr. A, Amon's target was his ally. Perhaps when Mr. A was in danger, the True Creator and Amon would counterbalance each other.
So, in a seemingly relaxed and teasing tone, he informed Little Sun about Amon's arrival in the City of Silver.
...
Amon came to the City of Silver again!
Derrick was extremely anxious. He still remembered the terrifying scene of being entangled by Amon last time. If it weren't for Mr. Fool's help, he would have become Amon's puppet long ago.
Now, Amon appeared once more.
And from Mr. Fool's tone, Amon was currently targeting the City of Silver!
"No, I must inform the Chief as soon as possible!"
"Mr. Fool, thank you for your warning."
After thanking Mr. Fool, Derrick hurriedly pushed the door open. He had just taken a few steps when he heard the city's alarm bell ringing.
The Chief and the others had already discovered Amon!
Derrick breathed a sigh of relief, tightly gripped his weapon, and followed the other combat personnel to the gathering point.
In the central plaza, the eagle standing on the statue quietly observed the chaos in the City of Silver.
It originally intended to use Mr. A's torment to stir up the entire City of Silver.
Weren't they expecting the True Creator to save them, bringing light and hope?
Today, it would show them what an ugly existence the True Creator was.
Starting with this follower of the True Creator.
Amon had no patience for playing cat-and-mouse games anymore.
Just as it was about to force Mr. A to pray to the True Creator, Mr. A had already knelt down, pleading to his master for salvation.
Unfortunately, the True Creator did not respond to his prayers. He merely glanced from afar and then withdrew his gaze, ignoring his pleas.
Mr. A could only turn to another master for help, feeling bitter. He believed his lack of devout faith had led the True Creator to abandon him.
In the past, he could claim to wholeheartedly believe in his master, but now, his faith had gradually tilted. Even a slight deviation made his faith impure.
"Unwilling to appear?"
Amon sensed the distant glance of the True Creator. Seeing that the True Creator was unwilling to appear, a mocking smile appeared on its lips, and the disdain in its eyes deepened.
The eagle-shaped Amon slowly took out a monocle and hung it on its right eye.
This scene was also seen by Demon Hunter Colin, who immediately recognized which one was the real Amon tonight.
At this moment, Derrick hurried over to Chief Colin's side and whispered, "Chief, Amon is here."
"Prepare to seek help from the entity behind you. We cannot withstand the real Amon," Colin said with a worried expression.
If Amon's true body came here, even if everyone in the City of Silver combined their strength, they wouldn't be a match.
The gap in strength and rank was too vast.
"Chief, I..."
"You don't need to explain. As long as we can protect the City of Silver, everything is worth it."
Colin kindly glanced at Derrick and then stopped Elder Lovia from acting.
Their actions would only anger Amon and achieve nothing else.
Now, it depended on whether the master of Mr. A's devout faith would appear to save his faithful follower.
Like Mr. A, he also awaited the descent of the master.
Unfortunately, the True Creator did not descend.
But the stars did!
The dark sky, torn into strips by lightning, now had another kind of light besides the lightning's glow.
The light of the stars!
Stars, with light not belonging to the Forsaken Land of the Gods, shone brightly in the dark, lightless world.
After countless years, the starlight once again enveloped the Forsaken Land of the Gods.
The gentle light, unlike the violent lightning, twinkled like the cute descriptions of the starry sky in books.
For a moment, the residents of the City of Silver forgot about Amon's presence and stared blankly at the starry sky, tears streaming down their faces.
When the City of Silver lost the sun, the stars also disappeared.
Now that the starlight shone again, did it mean the sun would reappear?
Derrick also looked up, but he still had some rationality, continuously calling out to Mr. Fool in his heart.
In the last Tarot Club, Mr. Fool had said that not allowing George III to become a god was the common will of him and the stars.
Now, with the starlight shining on the City of Silver, did it have something to do with Mr. Fool?
Above the gray fog, Klein, who had not yet left, also saw the scene of the starry sky descending on the Forsaken Land of the Gods through Derrick.
He knew that for the residents of the City of Silver, the starlight was a guide and a hope.
"The stars... what kind of existence are they?"
Klein murmured. Although he had cooperated with the star believer Bernadette to deal with George III, he didn't know much about the stars.
He only vaguely felt that the stars were not like the evil gods such as the True Creator or the Primordial Witch, who acted cruelly and evilly.
They seemed more like powerful and mysterious orderly beings different from the current six gods.
What he didn't expect was that Mr. A had also become a believer of the stars.
No wonder the Aurora Order had issued a bounty on him. For the True Creator, this was a loud slap in the face.
His divine messenger had become a believer of the stars.
With the sudden appearance of the starry sky, Mr. A, who was kneeling and praying, had his eyes filled with starlight. At this moment, his faith in the True Creator wavered even more.
This made him feel uneasy and afraid, lying on the ground, not daring to look up.
Seeing this scene, Amon's lips curved into a joyful smile, "The stars actually stole the True Creator's follower. This is really interesting."
Amon laughed happily, then retracted all its avatars, and as an eagle, pressed its right wing against its chest, bowing to the starry sky.
With the stars descending and stealing the True Creator's follower, there was no need for it to stay here.
If the Fool had come, it might have stayed to duel with the Fool, but facing the stars, it had no such intention.
Although it had stayed in the Forsaken Land of the Gods for a long time, the sudden fall of the God of War had caught its attention, making it aware of the stars' existence.
Facing the mysterious stars, it had no intention of provoking them without reason.
As Amon was about to fly away, a boom sounded!
A heavenly fire fell towards Amon.
This made Amon's eyes narrow. It sensed a breath similar to the Eternal Blazing Sun from this heavenly fire!
It wanted to escape and let the City of Silver bear the brunt of the heavenly fire.
But the surrounding space suddenly changed, pulling it and its distant avatars into the air and sealing them in a space ball.
The space compressed and exploded, followed by the direct baptism of the heavenly fire.
All the avatars were destroyed, leaving only twelve time worms in the air.
The brilliant fireworks dazzled the residents of the City of Silver.
From the appearance of the stars to Amon's departure and explosion, all these events happened in a short time.
Derrick was stunned, and Klein fell silent.
Finally, he could only sigh, "The power of the stars is truly terrifying."
Amon exploded, and the starry sky began to dissipate. The Forsaken Land of the Gods, once enveloped by the starlight, was again dominated by lightning.
Many residents of the City of Silver, following Mr. A's example, knelt and worshiped.
The miracle the City of Silver had long awaited finally appeared today!
Mr. A was the true divine messenger!
As the Chief of the City of Silver, Colin's heart was filled with complex emotions. He finally bent down and deeply bowed towards the direction where the stars disappeared.
...
In the Hall of Stars, Hastur sat at the head.
His gaze moved from the light point where Mr. A was to the beings sitting on his left and right: the Mother Tree of Desire, the Lord of Superstars, the Lamp God, and the High-Dimensional Overseer.
Tonight, Amon was very unlucky.
When Mr. A sought his help, he was holding the monthly meeting of the stars.
