Chapter 328: Klein: Did I Break into the Aurora Order's Lair?

Klein had a deep impression of the Ouroboros, Ouroboros. Just the mural left behind by this being had trapped Little Sun and the Silver City expedition team in the River of Destiny.

Now, the deity itself was here, undoubtedly a Sequence 1 Beyonder, practically a demigod. As a Sequence 7 Beyonder, Klein had no chance of escaping.

As Klein felt increasingly anxious and desperate, Ouroboros's gaze fell on him again, scrutinizing him for a moment. "There are many inconsistencies in your fate."

Klein's heart sank further, feeling that he could not avoid this disaster today.

"You have encountered another Mercury Snake!" Ouroboros's tone heightened, and his emotions showed slight fluctuations.

Another Mercury Snake? Was he referring to Will?

It turned out that it was this Ouroboros, Ouroboros, who had forced Will to hide in Backlund.

Klein opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

Mr. A's gaze followed Ouroboros's scrutiny of Klein and then laughed, "So it's you, a Night Watcher of the Church of the Evernight. Shouldn't you be in Backlund?"

Sigh, I've been found out.

Klein sighed heavily. Since he couldn't avoid this disaster, he decided to stop pretending.

"Mr. A of the Aurora Order, haven't you also left Backlund and come to the sea?"

Before Mr. A could respond, Ouroboros, with a cold expression, said, "So he is indeed still hiding in Backlund!"

After saying this, Ouroboros ignored Klein, tore open a portal to the spirit world with his light wings, and flew away.

Judging by his demeanor, he was undoubtedly heading to Backlund to find and devour Will.

Mr. A looked Klein up and down before saying, "You're quite something, even Lord Ouroboros was alarmed by you."

"This has nothing to do with me," Klein said, as he backed away.

Now that Ouroboros had left, and although Mr. A was a Sequence 5 Shepherd, Klein had a slim chance.

Before Ouroboros returned, Klein planned to deal with Mr. A and seize the ship to leave the deserted island!

Without hesitation, Klein suddenly attacked.

While retreating, he snapped his fingers, firing air bullets, and threw several pieces of white paper transformed into flying knives with his left hand.

These were items he had asked Miss Justice to bring during a feeding session.

"You think you can survive in my hands just because Lord Ouroboros isn't here?"

Mr. A was indifferent, his feet swirling with a fierce wind. With just a few flashes, he dodged Klein's attacks and closed in within two meters.

"Light!"

Klein threw out an unused Sun Flame Talisman.

Blazing light flashed, causing Mr. A to squint momentarily. Klein aimed an air bullet at Mr. A's heart.

The air bullet hit Mr. A's chest smoothly, but nothing happened afterward.

Mr. A merely sneered, as such an attack couldn't cause him any real harm.

He approached again, delivering a mental shock like a heavy hammer smashing Klein's mental world!

Klein groaned, blood flowing from his nose and mouth, his vision blurred and dazed.

Countless flesh tentacles emerged from the ground, about to entangle him completely, but a part of his clear mind used a paper substitute to escape this calamity.

Mr. A glanced disdainfully, "Freeze!"

Using the extraordinary power of a Witch, he instantly froze the space around Klein, covering his legs with a thick layer of ice.

Mr. A then summoned a ruthless wind sharp enough to cut flesh, converging from all directions to tear the immobilized Klein apart.

Klein quickly pulled out a Destiny Talisman given to him by Will before his departure, said to change his fate at a critical moment.

He swiftly and calmly recited in ancient Hermes, "Destiny!"

As the Destiny Talisman emitted a bright light, an illusory Ouroboros appeared in mid-air, restarting fate.

Klein, initially in a desperate situation, escaped danger, returning to the moment before his body was frozen. He threw a cigarette case towards Mr. A and snapped his fingers, using the flames from a fire ten meters away to create distance.

He couldn't win; there was no chance of victory.

Klein panted heavily, cold sweat streaming down his temples. Just a few exchanges had brought him close to death multiple times.

The combat power of a Sequence 5 Shepherd was terrifying, with versatile extraordinary abilities and the Roselle Bishop's control over flesh. His attacks couldn't truly harm Mr. A.

Unless Mr. A went mad and killed himself.

Normally, this wouldn't be possible, but with external factors, there might be a slim chance, as members of the Aurora Order were inherently crazy, always on the verge of losing control.

Sure enough, the pollution in the cigarette case made Mr. A cry out in pain, his body swelling, with black viscous liquid oozing from his ears and eyes.

"Heh, nice trick, but do you think you can kill me with just this? Aren't you too naive?"

Mr. A cut off the polluted flesh himself, his sinister tone making Klein's heart sink.

He had nothing left to threaten Mr. A.

The gap between a Sequence 7 Magician and a Sequence 5 Shepherd was too vast. Surviving this long was already quite an achievement.

But he wouldn't stay and wait for death. He started running towards the island's center.

Although it had been flattened by Ouroboros, there might be something that could change his fate.

At that moment, everything suddenly quieted down, space became stagnant, and time seemed to pause.

Klein's face showed increasing surprise and fear.

When he regained control of his body, a tall figure appeared in mid-air.

The figure was barefoot, with a handsome face, eyes like deep abysses, and a slight smile as if encountering something amusing.

Klein's breathing quickened, his heart sinking completely.

One Mr. A was already overwhelming, and now another terrifying enemy appeared, leaving him with no hope of escape.

The successive waves of hope and despair confirmed what Will had told him before leaving, "This is a rough and rugged journey."

The previously fierce Mr. A now looked down, gazing at the mysterious newcomer with admiration.

Could it be another angel?

Klein felt bitter. How long had it been?

First, encountering the Lord of Storms at Banshee Harbor, and now meeting two angels in a row. This fate was more than just rough and rugged.

He should have stayed in Backlund and not ventured out.

Hastur looked at Klein, whose face was filled with despair, and slowly spoke, "Traveler stranded on a deserted island, your experiences are truly fascinating."

"…"

Klein could only respond with silence.

"Lord, he is a Night Watcher of the Church of the Evernight, somehow stranded on this island from Backlund," Mr. A briefly introduced.

Lord?

A bolt of lightning flashed through Klein's mind, followed by thunderous roars, making his hair stand on end and his body stiffen.

The only one Mr. A would call Lord was the True Creator!

This mysterious newcomer was the evil god known as the True Creator!

No wonder the Destiny Angel Ouroboros and Mr. A were on this ship.

He had indeed broken into the Aurora Order's lair!

Klein's mouth went dry, unable to speak.

His already desperate heart sank further into an abyss.

But the awaited death did not come. Instead, he heard, "Take him aboard."

"As you wish, Lord."

"??"

Klein was filled with confusion. Was he being let off so easily?

"The gift of destiny must be repaid in the future."

The mysterious figure, possibly the True Creator, left this final sentence before disappearing.

The gift of destiny? Was that directed at him? Or his future self?

Klein felt that the figure seemed to see through him, looking at another version of himself yet to appear.

Though he didn't understand, leaving the deserted island was a good thing.

"There is no second chance for the Lord's grace."

Mr. A's voice was cold as he ordered Klein onto the ship, setting rules that he could only stay in the stern and not venture elsewhere.

Klein had no objections, still pondering the mysterious figure's words.

From the first moment, it felt like the figure saw through his origins and future fate, like being stripped naked and scrutinized from above, unable to hide anything.

Klein shook his head, dismissing these thoughts, and began worrying about Will's situation.

The power of the Destiny Angel Ouroboros was terrifying. He wondered if Will could escape this disaster.
