The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 178: How can a face-to-face assassination still fail?

Just when Annan was thinking about Salvatore, Salvatore took the initiative to get in touch with Annan, as if he had a telepathic connection. https://

"Annan? Can you hear me?"

In the floor-to-ceiling mirror in Annan's bathroom, Salvatore's face appeared.

It can be seen that Salvatore is a little nervous.

He moved a small stool and sat in front of the mirror in formal clothes. He leaned forward slightly and put his hands on his knees.

He glanced at Winter's Hand, who was standing behind Annan, with only half of his body exposed, and seemed a little embarrassed, "There are people over there..."

"That's just an elder who takes care of my daily life."

The water on Annan's body has not been completely wiped off, and her hair is a little wet. The upper body is covered in thick, furry clothes.

He showed a gentle and harmless smile, "My family is very insecure. They always feel that I might be kidnapped suddenly...so when I am at home, I usually have at least A person is staring at me."

"That must be very uncomfortable."

"This is also a kind thought."

Annan replied.

He tilted his head and said, "What do you want to see me for suddenly? Or... try this new ritual?"

"Oh, yes Annan!"

After hearing what Annan said, Salvatore reacted, "This is my newly developed ritual, what do you think?"

"In the mirror realm?"

"That's right!"

Salvatore's brows and eyes were full of fatigue, but his tone was quite exciting, "I have thought before that the teacher is now the Pope of the person in the mirror... Then can you let me see the mirror with my own eyes?" The middle man?"

"What's the result?"

"The result is really good!"

Senior Salvatore happily shared what he saw, "Before the man in the mirror held the sublimation ceremony, he was my idol! His ability to give life to the demon and his superb technology to control time , I admire and envy them very much...but I don’t have the adaptability of the idol school, so I can only envy them.

"This time I want to get the signature token of the man in the mirror - it can be used as an unlimited number of real names, and it also has a considerable degree of power. With this token, it provides a steady stream of 'infinite overlapping echoes' influence , I will be able to experiment with new rituals in the mirror realm!"

As a result, you made a video call?

Annan's expression was a little strange.

But this thing is really convenient...

"What is the name of this ritual? How much does it cost?"

"I call it [the mirror of friends]."

"What a straightforward name."

“I can’t think of any cool names at the moment... The materials are very simple. In addition to the influence of the man in the mirror, you only need to paste the friend’s painting on the back of the mirror, plus snake egg liquid, eagle Eye extract and white calf tears, plus a spell that provides the power of the curse - I am temporarily using my own blood for this part.

"As for what cheaper and more stable performance magic should be used to replace it in the future... I will find another way to optimize it."

At this point, Salvatore showed a bright smile, "After all, I sleep less than ordinary people... you know it."

"Well, after all, I am your secret keeper."

Annan nodded.

After Clarence's death, Annan became Salvatore's secret keeper.

Salvatore is forced to stay up late every day because of the curse [Sleepless Reflection]. I can't go to bed until three in the morning and wake up at nine...

The second curse he obtained when he advanced to Silver also prevents him from sleeping more than six hours a day - for every hour he sleeps, his apparent age will be reduced by one year, but his lifespan will not increase accordingly. Increase.

...But in general, there are ways to avoid it.

After all, in terms of judgment, coma is not considered sleep.

So Salvatore's mood calmed down - as long as he stayed up until he was unconscious, he would be able to catch up on his sleep.

Once you accept this setting, it is a reasonable excuse to stay up late and work overtime.

"But you came to contact me specifically to test the effect of the ritual?"

Annan asked.

"I have actually tried it twice in the case of 'long distance' and 'change of name' - this time it is mainly to try to see if this ritual can cross the great barrier and achieve communication with foreign countries. The result is obvious It’s good.”

Salvatore was obviously in a good mood, "In addition, I want to tell you about the news about Noah... You guys left so cleanly that I couldn't even reach you if I wanted to find someone to contact you."

As he spoke, he began to complain.

"Okay, okay," Annan comforted him, "What news? About Kaifni?"

"... There is, but that's not important. There is a fallen person called the Blood Demon in the royal capital, right? You know? His demonization is quite deep, and his [appendages] have almost taken shape, roughly equivalent to There is no golden level with awakening elements."

While recalling, Salvatore said slowly, "But he was killed not long ago."

"That [ritualist killer]? Wasn't he killed long ago?"

"Originally Philip thought he had killed the Blood Demon, but he didn't expect that the Blood Demon only had one head left, but he was still not dead."

Salvatore explained, "Later he was attacked by the Blood Demon in his room... He seemed to be in a very embarrassed state, and his lover was also killed by the Blood Demon. But he was lucky to be safe in the end."

"...Philip is not dead yet?"

Annan was very surprised, "How did he do it?"

He was not surprised that the Blood Demon was not dead.

Because it was Delicious Wind Goose who took action against the Blood Demon at that time - he deliberately did not kill the Blood Demon.

This was originally a collaboration between them. It's just that very few people know about it.

But what makes Annan strange is...why didn't the Blood Demon kill the unsuspecting Philip?

Philip is not a golden-level extraordinary person.

Neither transcendent nor depraved. Just a senior ritualist.

How could you fail to assassinate Big Crispy in the face? This damage is overwhelming.

Aren’t you embarrassed?

It was Salvatore who vaguely figured out something from Annan's attitude.

"...So the Blood Demon is yours?"

Salvatore's expression suddenly became very strange. His upper body was raised significantly back, performing a difficult tactical lean-back.

"Be careful not to fall over."

Annan reminded, "Also, the Blood Demon is not mine. It was just the delicious wind goose that brought the Blood Demon to Philip's house."

"So that's it..."

Salvatore suddenly felt a little regretful. ~IndoMTL.com~ After learning that it was Annan's idea to assassinate Philip, he immediately changed the subject and stopped pitying Philip. Instead, he began to regret that Philip was not dead. "Then it should be that you didn't communicate well.

"The Blood Demon actually did not jump out to assassinate Philip on his own initiative, but his existence was noticed by others. So he was forced to jump out and assassinate - but failed in the end."

"He was discovered?"

"Yes."

Salvatore replied, "It is the Saint of Sacrifice, 'the one who opposes himself'. He went to the capital to search for the Blood Demon... Any fallen person who uses 'flesh' as ​​their special ability will be killed by him." Find and kill. This is what he has done most in the past ten years.

"His purpose is to prevent the holy bones of the 'blood and flesh of sacrifice' from falling into the hands of the fallen."
