The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 25: Isaac II
"The most important things have been discussed," Hugo Tower Master's mentality was obviously much more relaxed, "I still have some good things to share with you."
"Is it a good thing? Then take it out and take a look!"
Annan's eyes lit up and he teased Hugo half-jokingly.
Hugo and Chengling Monk were from the same era. Although he looked like a young man in his early twenties, he was actually about seventy or eighty.
From the perspective of Master Hugo Tower, most of the things that can be mentioned to Annan at this time are extremely rare treasures elsewhere.
Although Annan didn't have much interest in his legacy - after all, he was "built into" the Black Tower in the Zeland when he was in his twenties, and he was childless all his life. In the end, all his legacy had to be left to Sal Vatore.
For Salvatore, Annan can basically get everything he wants.
"——It is indeed a good thing."
This is not what Hugo said.
A somewhat unfamiliar yet familiar voice sounded outside the door.
As the "elevator" door was pushed open, a tall young man with white hair and green eyes walked out of the transparent pipe.
His milky white curly hair gives people a soft feeling, and his green pupils are reminiscent of cats. He was not wearing the iconic "black and red" robe of Zedi Black Tower, but a pure white slim-fitting dress that reminded people of the "prince" in the fairy tale.
Pure white jacket, pure white slim trousers, pure white boots - it looks like the whole person is sparkling. Apart from a small amount of silver runes on his body, he was only decorated with many gemstones hanging on his body.
They are all made of thin slices of emerald, and the edges have even been specially polished to look like some kind of brooch.
Triangle, square, five-pointed star, six-pointed star, seven-pointed star - using these five shapes as templates, many thin and thick gemstones about the size of breast pieces were hung on his collar and waist with thin silver chains. With right hand cuff.
It's like the wind chime has become a spirit.
When he walks, he makes a crisp collision sound.
Annan looked at the young man's face and suddenly realized after a few seconds: "Are you... Sir Isaac?"
This is one of the trophies I got from him when I fought against the Spirit-bearing Monk in the past.
The body of thoughts pulled from the grave of Isaac Flamel, the world's first transformation wizard, Nicholas's mentor and adoptive father, "Jade Record" - the spirit-bearing monk used this body of thoughts to construct an artificial spirit body .
"The real soul of 'Cuiyulu' has long since disappeared."
It was Isaac himself who spoke and explained at this moment: "I am just a false counterfeit. I have part of the memory of the former 'Jade Record' Isaac Flamel, filling it with many worn out souls. ...It’s nothing more than a human skin doll stuffed with cotton wool.
"It just happens that there are still people who can make use of a funny doll like me. So under Mr. Hugo's skillful hands, I can still barely survive in the world..."
Issac commented harshly on himself: "Fortunately, the wizard who made my body is quite skillful. His life is not too ugly."
He unceremoniously crossed one leg and sat on Hugo's table.
Looking at Annan, Isaac felt a little nostalgic for a moment: "Looking at Your Majesty, I think of Miss Zhiji..."
"Have you seen Paper Princess too?"
Annan raised his head and looked at Isaac sitting at the corner of the table to his right
"Yes, I am her admirer."
Isaac smiled and his tone became gentler: "But I really have no artistic talent. So I just admire him."
"...I have a question."
Annan was silent for a moment, then asked softly: "Sir Isaac...are you staying here voluntarily?"
"Don't call me Sir. I'm not Sir Isaac Flamel, I'm just a puppet with some of his memories."
Isaac stretched out his index finger in front of his lips.
The corners of his mouth raised, revealing a charming smile: "I named myself Isaac II - does it sound a bit familiar?"
"...You look quite energetic."
Annan was a little helpless.
"That's natural. Doing some odd jobs in Zedi Black Tower is at least much better than living under Lord Chengling Monk. You're not so confused, and you can also do some research...read books and play with some mechanisms. ”
Issac sighed: "The times are developing so fast. More than a hundred years ago, I was the wisest person in the world... But now, I seem to be unable to compare with those children."
After he finished speaking, he organized his words and then spoke softly: "Of course I stayed voluntarily. To be precise, I came to ask the owner of Hugo Tower to buy me a tower that is enough to accommodate my soul.' utensil'."
When Isaac said this, he showed a somewhat melancholy and lonely smile.
"...Although it is meaningless. But I still want to repay something for my son...for Nikolai."
He liked to call his adopted son Nicholas Nicholas.
Sir Isaac, like the owner of Hugo Tower, had no children.
In other words, this is the case for many tower owners - they can be selected as successors by the Wizard Tower. These "talents" are not just differences in intelligence and talent. Passion, perseverance, determination...these are also part of talent.
Repay Nicholas' debt...
Annan was thoughtful.
"After you finish teaching this month's courses and give the children exams, you can follow His Majesty Annan first."
Hugo gave instructions to the puppet named "Isaac II".
Later, he explained to Annan: "The inheritance of Zedi Black Tower is not achieved overnight. He should need to sleep for a long time...at least half a month. And by this time I was already dead.
"As for Isaac II, he has the authority of a high-level teacher and can call upon the resources of the Zedi Black Tower during this period; he also has the gold-level 'Jade Record' profession, which can protect you and The Black Tower of the Zeland can also teach Thrall how to use the ability of 'Fire Stealer' for me.
"If you need a trustworthy transformation wizard, you might as well try asking Isaac. He is not the real Sir Isaac, so you don't have to feel any psychological pressure... You don't have any objections, right?"
This last sentence was when Hugo turned to ask Isaac.
Isaac said with a smile: "Of course not...I'm honored.
"Your Majesty Annan is a good boy at first glance. Even if I risk my life, I will never let others hurt him."
He said with great certainty.
That was definitely not an oath made out of courtesy and ceremony. ~IndoMTL.com~ Annan couldn't help but take a breath and pursed his lips.
Is it an illusion?
I always feel that Mr. Isaac’s initial favorable impression of me is a little high...
"One last thing...that's it."
Master Hugo Tower whispered.
The slender ghost bent down and reached out to take Annan's hand. He gently placed a strange gem in Annan's hand.
The moment he bought it, a prompt suddenly appeared on Annan’s side:
【Unpurified Nightmare Fragments Detected】
[Level requirement: Silver level]
[Professional requirements: Hold a wizard profession]
[Special requirements: Must master soul-stealing spells and have your own spiritual servants]
[If the requirements are met, you will fall into a nightmare in ten seconds, ten, nine...]
Annan immediately put it on the table.
——He recognized what it was at a glance.
This is exactly the right eye of "Spiritual Monk" Bernardino - it is not an eyeball made of flesh and blood, but a spherical gemstone embedded in the eye socket.
"This is Bernardino's nightmare."
Hugo whispered: "I'm sorry, I made a mistake. This nightmare has special properties. I can't enter this twisted nightmare... I can only use special skills to greatly reduce its difficulty. Now this Even if the nightmare fails, it will not cause any harm - this is the limit of what I can do."
"It doesn't matter...it's better to say it."
The corners of Annan's mouth raised slightly: "I prefer to explore nightmares by myself. This will help me understand their lives better.
"I have always believed that the purifier of nightmares... is the tombstone with the life of the deceased engraved on it. I am willing to be such a tombstone."
