But it's worth the challenge.
The twelve ancient shadows that looked like a wall clock appeared behind Amon, and the huge aura shook the entire house, making the entire Queens tremble.
But at this moment, everything around him was disillusioned. There was no house, no Queens, and no place like a study. Only Hastur quietly held 008 in his hand, standing in a void and empty world.
This is the spiritual world.
In the spirit world, the shadow of the ancient wall clock behind Amon became increasingly mottled. There was no need to worry that the aura of the King of Angels was also fully blooming at this moment.
When the hands on the twelve-digit clock began to rotate, and time was reshaped at this moment, Amon gently reached out and grabbed 008.
But the 008 he held in his hand soon became illusory, and finally disappeared into thin air.
Also disappearing were Hastur and the real 008 in front of him.
This is not a simple spiritual world...this is the underworld deep in the spiritual world!
This is the Kingdom of God opened up by the ancient Phoenix, a place of death. Although it was once broken, it has now been gradually repaired and improved.
"The gods should stay away from the earth and return to the stars."
Amon whispered, and the mottled pointer of the ancient shadow behind him quickly turned around. He stretched out his hand and when he pulled it back, a 0 appeared in his hand again.
08.
His stealing does not just stop at the inherent destiny. The moment Hastur and 008 disappeared, he used his authority to steal this time.
Hastur is indeed an empty concept that is not affected by fate and cannot be stolen, but 008 does not have this ability. It is a concrete existence.
And what exists can naturally be stolen,
"No stealing here!"
008 started to save himself crazily. At this time, a pair of eyes rose from the depths of the underworld. The eyes glowing with golden flames just glanced lightly.
Amon's body and 008 were on fire.
"Ugh."
Amon sighed, and when he wanted to hold 008 tightly and leave, the surrounding space and time suddenly solidified. Even Amon was frozen in place in an instant.
The golden eyes became brighter and brighter, and the entire underworld formed a huge prison, completely confining Amon here and unable to go out.
Amon noticed an abnormality in the time and space around him, and the phantom hands of the ancient wall clock behind him reversed again, returning to the time when the golden eyes had just risen.
He opened a crack and threw 008 out, wanting to send 008 away from here.
"It's back to its original owner. It seems you can't take it away yet."
Outside the crack, Hastur caught 008 easily, glanced at Amon, and blocked the crack. At the same time, he held 008 in the air and wrote, "Those who steal will be punished by prison!"
"Those who steal will be punished by thunder!" Thunder struck down violently.
Amon, this young man wearing a black classical robe and a pointed hat of the same color, was chopped into powder by thunder, leaving only three Worms of Time in place.
In the study, 008 was still lying in the pencil case, and Hastur was still sitting in the armchair.
There was a ripple in the space in front of him, and Amon's figure appeared here again, without any depression on his face.
When he was sucked into the spirit world just now, he changed his position and let a clone of himself enter it.
"How many clones do you have?"
Hastur whispered, the surrounding stars flashed, and the world changed again. This time, what appeared in front of us was no longer the spiritual world, but the starry sky!
Amon didn't hesitate at all, turned around and left here. Even so, he once again left behind four worms of time.
"A false starry sky can make Amon retreat quickly. It can be seen that the starry sky is still extremely terrifying for existences like them."
Hastur whispered, and put away the four Worms of Time.
As for Amon, no matter whether the person appearing in front of him tonight is his true body or a clone, he needs to be peeled off before he can leave here.
In order to prevent Amon from accidentally injuring innocent people, Hastur had already remodeled his study to form a space similar to multiple spaces.
Unfortunately, the authority he learned from the high-dimensional overlooker was limited. Even with the blessing of the Palace of Stars, it was still unable to compare with the real multiple dimensions.
Otherwise, he could make Amon fall into a world of illusion forever, unable to distinguish reality from fiction.
When Amon left completely, Hastur had three more translucent Time Worms in his hand.
Tonight, his loot was quite generous, especially the process of peeling off the Worms of Time layer by layer from Amon's body, which was really a relief from stress and anger.
As for Amon, who knows where his true form is hiding. Maybe he is staying with Adam and being a good baby.
In the real world, 008 is writing on a blank piece of paper: "Master, my master, you are so witty and brave. You have protected me again, woo woo..."
On Hastur's shoulder, Phoenix Greycarrie was standing quietly.
In order to prevent any accidents, Gray Carrie has been guarding this study.
Regardless of whether Amon comes in person or not, he cannot snatch 008 away from Gray Carrie.
Chapter 487 Trophies
The night was still silent, only a black cloud enveloped it. When he saw a figure that did not belong to Backlund sneaking out of the Queens District, a furious thunder fell, splitting the remaining clone of Amon into pieces. The slag left only four translucent insects of time in place.
Rumble!
Several more thunderbolts came, burning the four insects of time into powder and scattering them in the wind.
The dark clouds dispersed again, and the starry sky returned to its former calm and brilliance.
In the study room, faced with 008's flattery, Hastur admitted that he felt comfortable listening to it, but it was a trouble after all.
You can only be a thief for a thousand days, but there is no way to prevent a thief for a thousand days.
Both Adam and Amon already know what 008 is doing in their hands, and they will definitely come to snatch him in the future. Although it is not too difficult to protect 008, Amon's temperament is too changeable.
The lack of security will one day implicate innocent people, such as the housekeeper and maid at home, and friends like Sharon and Audrey, Greg, and Maric who care.
With Amon's ability, it is easy to investigate his interpersonal relationships, and it is also easy to deal with them.
For a born mythical creature like Amon, these emotions that he cares about are all places that he can make use of.
When he fails once, Amon may still regard it as a difficult game challenge.
But if he keeps failing, sooner or later he will take actions that affect other people, because in his eyes, there is no concept of innocence in the life and death of these people.
In comparison, Adam was easier to deal with.
He knows human nature well and will not push this matter to extremes unless forced to do so, but Amon is different.
I'm afraid this is Adam's real intention in asking Amon to help him visit Backlund.
He is telling himself that when you have concerns in your heart, don't hold on to 008, otherwise there is no guarantee of what will happen next time.
Admittedly, this is a threat, but I have to admit that it is very effective.
After all, I still can't protect Sharon, Audrey and others at the same time, even if I have the stars to rely on.
"Master, are you considering handing me over?"
008 is very smart. When it saw Hastur's silence, it roughly guessed what Hastur was thinking.
Use it to conduct a suitable transaction, which is the most reasonable choice.
"What do you think?"
"I, I want to get rid of this fate. Maybe the master can separate me from this extraordinary characteristic of a writer and let me become the new 008."
008 felt frustrated and slowly wrote his answer on the blank paper.
"It's indeed a good idea." Hastur nodded, "But it's not that time yet."
He also has something that makes Adam afraid. If he really wants to mess up, he will directly send 008 to the stars so that Adam will never become a god!
But as the end approaches, this deterrent will become smaller and smaller.
008's suggestion is actually the best solution. All Adam needs is the writer's extraordinary characteristics. It is not difficult to separate the extraordinary characteristics and retain 008's complete consciousness.
But if he wants to compromise, Adam must show enough sincerity.
Maybe it was foreseen
008 was not very interested in his final outcome, and he randomly drew wavy and twisted lines on the blank paper.
"How about combining you with that Yellow Document?"
008's brush strokes suddenly stopped, and after a while, it scrawled and wrote in the blank space: "Everything depends on the owner."
This scene gave Hastur a sense of déjà vu as if he had dreamed that the landowner rewarded his servant to the girl he liked.
……
Outside Berklund Street, Leonard had arrived at a safe area and felt that Amon's aura had disappeared, and the abnormalities in Berklund Street had completely returned to normal.
Pales asked Leonard to contact Klein and Hastur.
In the dream, the three of them reunited again.
"Are you all okay?" Leonard asked worriedly.
"It's okay." Klein responded, looking at Hastur, "Amon didn't come to see me."
"Well, He came to see me. Fortunately, I made some preparations in advance." Hastur did not hide this matter.
Leonard exclaimed: "Isn't that dangerous?"
"It's just a clone, not the main body. It's still within the processing range."
Hastur's calm words shocked both Leonard and Klein.
No matter how weak Amon's clone is, it should still be in Sequence 3, right?
Judging from what happened tonight, the battle on Berklund Street may have been a decoy, and what Amon really wanted to do was pinned on another clone.
Then the strength of this clone cannot be too low, and there is a high probability that it is also a Sequence 2.
And Hastur can survive in the hands of an angel and even gain an advantage. There are too many things worth studying in this.
But they were all smart people, and Hastur didn't go into details, so they didn't ask further questions.
After a brief chat, Hastur began to distribute tonight's spoils.
"A total of thirteen Worms of Time were obtained in the battle on Berklund Street. One of them is relatively large, and the other twelve are about the same size. I only want the largest one, and the other twelve will be divided equally between the two of you."
