The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 234: Gray
In fact, this was the first time for Annan to arrive at the bone raising ground in his own body.
In the nightmare of "phantom heat", that is, the nightmare of "Gemini", he once arrived near the bone raising ground.
Of course, the bone raising ground at that time was not called this name.
It is instead known as the "Grey Tower".
You need to know here that the word "ash" also means reflection and shadow in the Elvish language - the logic is also very simple. If black is "darkness", then gray as "impure black" is the next-level "shadow".
Another name for the Gray Tower is the Tower of Reflection.
The so-called reflection must have the original body before it is reflected in the lake.
If you think of the ground as a lake, then the Gray Tower is the "Wizard's Tower in the Shadow".
Because the birth of the underground city was later than the destruction of the Elf Empire, and much later than the era when the Wizard Tower fell on the ground. The underground people, who were just a group of refugees in the beginning, could not possibly have a wizard tower belonging to them.
Wizard Tower has formed a symbiotic relationship with the surrounding society and resources.
Just like the black fire and green fire produced by the Black Tower in the Swamp, it has something to do with the swamp they live in; the technology of using gemstones to cast spells developed on the Diamond Island is also related to the raw gemstones all around them. .
The Tower of Storms is able to produce jade pieces in batches because they have a "giant wind-powered photolithography machine"; the Tower of Thousand Faces landed directly on Miss Good Luck's temple.
At the end, although more and more people poured into the underground... their social structure had already taken shape.
Since they have not left a special place for the Wizard Tower, they have no intention or ability to provide special resources for the Wizard Tower; the Wizard Tower will naturally not destroy its existing social relations and risk offending the original The risk of the area leaving.
Similarly.
Except for wizards, the best in other professions really have no reason to go underground. They themselves do not belong here...they will go underground, that is, those who are against the winter or the crew of the treasure ship "Silver".
What they have in common is that they are all losers in the earthly world. This is basically the case for people who would choose to go underground.
Who would want to leave their hometown if they didn’t have no choice?
Even with the blessings of the two goddesses, they will not starve to death, have a place to live, and even have subway technology, a unique asset that allows them to travel around the world... But their "heritage" Still not enough.
In this case, Professor Gray, an "aboveground person", can come to the underground to "run a school", which will naturally gain the respect and praise of everyone.
Gray Professor Seti cannot compare to the master of the tower in terms of knowledge, ability, or personal character. But people in underground cities don't have a choice anyway... So it's better to brag him a little bit more, so that at least he can feel better when he goes to school.
It’s true to deceive yourself and others.
However, Professor Gray obviously did not indulge in this false reputation.
Although he is respected as the "Lord of the Tower of Reflection"...
But according to Annan's understanding, he was actually performing a ritual - the ritual of devouring students' dreams.
He cultivates young girls with bright dreams.
And then gradually misled their outlook on life, leading them astray...but in the end they became happy because of the abilities he taught them. Therefore, I had to take the initiative to give up my "immature childhood dreams".
These dreams will then be harvested and stored by Professor Gray.
One of the reasons why he later transitioned into the holy bones industry was that he just happened to catch it... By chance, Professor Gray happened to get the broken "Fearless Bone" and was really capable of repairing it.
But actually the biggest reason... is because he no longer needs to "collect dreams."
This is why Nefertari survived.
It's not because Professor Gray is particularly merciful, or because there is any use in keeping her.
It's just not necessary anymore.
Professor Gray changed the name of Gray Tower to Bone Raising Ground just to avoid taboo - he was worried that continuing to use the name "Tower of Reflection" might make the wizard tower above feel nervous and confused, so he sent people down to check .
And if so, his plan may be exposed.
So after Professor Gray's goal was achieved, he immediately removed the name of "Grey Tower" and changed it into a bone raising ground. This is meant to avoid being noticed.
However, although the name has been changed, the building has not.
After Annan and the others teleported over, what they saw when they looked up was a tall gray tower reaching the sky.
That is really the "Tower of Babel" in the physical sense.
This tower is connected from the "ground" to the "sky dome" - that is, the wall of light. The top part did not tighten or disappear, but was buried in the light ant layer. From the outside, it looks like a section is hidden in the sky.
While the five people from Annan were carefully looking at the tower from the outside.
The door of the tower suddenly opened on its own.
A man who looked familiar to Annan was waiting at the door.
The man's gray messy long hair fell behind his shoulders. It looks like hair that hasn't been combed after waking up, but it doesn't feel greasy or dirty.
He was wearing a purple toga robe, and his dark gray pupils were like stagnant mercury.
His feet are also wearing gray cloth shoes, and a dark gray sash is draped diagonally from his left shoulder to his right waist. He had a bright smile on his face... As soon as he walked in, you could smell the faint smell of alcohol emanating from him.
There is no doubt that this is Professor Gray.
He seems very friendly.
Annan's pupils suddenly shrank!
Because Annan had seen Professor Gray from decades ago in his nightmare.
And he is exactly the same now as he was then!
It’s not that the clothes and the style of wearing have not changed; it’s not that after more than fifty years, there is no problem of aging at all.
But even the color of his clothes, the angle at which the belt was worn, the smile on his face, and even the smell of alcohol on his body... were completely consistent with the image in the nightmare at that time!
Annan can understand whether they are similar or even completely different. But being completely consistent is a little scary.
——Fortunately, Annan is now a gold-level transcendent. His memory was also greatly enhanced.
Recalling it carefully, Annan realized a more important detail:
That's Professor Gray's hairstyle.
Other parts are completely consistent and can be said to be deliberately maintained.
But his hair, which is messy and messy, is exactly the same as it was back then even though there was no hairspray on it!
"...Is this Professor Gray?"
Annan was silent for a moment, then turned to Nefertari beside him and asked indirectly.
Nefertari nodded vigorously: "Yes...what's wrong?"
She was very smart and quickly realized Annan's hesitation.
"Nothing. Has he always been dressed like this?"
"Yes," Nefertari affirmed, "the teacher has never changed. And even the smell of alcohol on his body has not become stronger or lighter. We all say that teachers are free from time. , that’s why I wear such ancient clothes.”
Indeed.
This is the clothing style of the Elf Age - or at least the end of the Elf Age.
It is possible that Professor Gray survived from Philip's time~IndoMTL.com~...
Seeing Annan arrive, Professor Gray greeted him with a smile.
The intoxicating aroma of wine overflowed from his mouth.
But this time, Annan did not feel dizzy again.
"——I just said, why do you feel that the spinning thread is touched. It is actually a distinguished guest..."
Professor Gray looked like a drunk old man, showing a genuine and cheerful smile to several people.
Like an exaggerated dramatic actor, he put the **** and ring finger of his right hand against his chest, leaning forward slightly: "The crane... Your Majesty. I send you my regards."
No one else noticed, but Annan frowned.
Because of Professor Gray’s greeting...
Even one word is exactly the same as the greeting he said to "Annan" in his nightmare!
