The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 353: 0-change person
“…”
The delicious wind goose stared at the old man who had been dead for many days.
His body is as skinny as wood, but his abdomen is slightly bulging.
It’s very cold here and underground, so I don’t hear the buzzing of flies, but I can still see gray-white moths covering the old man’s face.
Delicious Wind Goose felt as if his throat was blocked by something.
Is that sadness? Or is it fear?
He didn’t think too much and turned back as if nothing had happened.
“…Yes, I have thought about it. There is no need for me to waste time here.”
He turned back to Klaus and replied respectfully and humbly: “Whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you.”
“Very good.”
Klaus nodded slightly with satisfaction.
His eyes were still wary.
Standing outside the cell, he asked: “What do you know?”
“The ‘Don Juan Geraint’ of Frozen Water Port, our lord, is not the real Don Juan Geraint.”
The delicious wind goose quickly replied: “This is what the Viscount of Rossburg said personally.”
“Alvin Barber?”
Klaus frowned slightly and called the deceased by his name: “What did he say?”
“He called ‘Don Juan’ ‘His Royal Highness Annan’.”
Delicious Wind Goose lowered his voice and replied seriously: “And I have investigated… there is only one His Highness Annan——
“And I have seen Don Juan Geraint use frost swordsmanship. I am a swordsmanship instructor myself, and I can recognize that it is definitely frost swordsmanship. Although there is no more evidence, I think this is enough to prove, That ‘Don Juan’ is actually ‘Annan Winter’.”
“…Annan Winter.”
Klaus frowned slightly and murmured in a low voice: “No wonder…well, this can also explain that…”
He was silent for a while, then raised his head and said seriously: “Can you take responsibility for what you said?”
“You can find the edict wizard. I can swear for anything I said above.”
Delicious Wind Goose replied with certainty: “Because I have no reason to lie at all.”
He has indeed seen Viscount Alvin address Annan as “Your Highness”; he has indeed seen Annan use frost swordsmanship. Even if he comes to ask for the order wizard, he will answer like this.
Klaus frowned slightly.
Feeling Yummy Feng Goose’s ample confidence, he also hesitated a little.
“…You are quite straightforward. Why didn’t you say that before?”
“It’s not that I don’t want to say it.”
The delicious wind goose replied calmly: “To tell you the truth, I want to sell this information at a higher price… You are showing off to me, so why am I not showing off to you? After all, this information is important to me. It has no value to me, but it may affect His Royal Highness Philip’s decision-making.
“After all, His Highness Annan is not the real ‘Don Juan Geraint’, he is a winter man… and I am Noah’s transcendent. His favor towards me and my loyalty to him have no value. Unless I have to, I can’t serve him.”
Yes.
Klaus couldn’t help but nodded.
——He is right.
Because if Annan’s identity is exposed, Delicious Wind Goose will never be able to leave Noah alone.
Transcendents who want to cross the border can only use the Theocracy’s steam airships or underground railways.
This means that even if he has been serving Annan and devoting all his loyalty…if Annan completes his secret mission and evacuates, it will definitely be more convenient not to take him with him; and if Annan’s identity is exposed, he will inevitably be Also wanted.
It is impossible for a wanted extraordinary person to leave Noah by any means. Even if the authorities don’t hunt him down, he still has to be wary of hunters while living in hiding in the country.
On the other hand…
After all, His Royal Highness Philip is one of the only royal heirs currently, and he also has a considerable advantage. If he becomes the new king, then he can rise to the top immediately; to say the least, even if His Royal Highness Philip fails, as long as he can advance to silver or even gold, he will still be recruited by the new king.
The moment he surrendered, he already received better treatment than before.
Klaus couldn’t help but take a second look at the delicious wind goose.
I knew before that this guy had a very good brain… Now it seems that he is really very good at it. I’m afraid all of this had already been considered when he was captured, or even before that.
Smart people can easily advance because they can conquer nightmares more quickly and perfectly.
But generally smart people like to play tricks to make themselves appear smarter than they actually are.
The Delicious Wind Goose made no secret of his plan – he even told Klaus directly about his plan.
He can see the value of the information on his body, and he also knows his value to His Royal Highness Philip as a calm and composed young extraordinary person. So even if he was left alone for two days, he didn’t have the slightest fear; he told himself the key information directly, and he didn’t worry that Klaus would kill him to silence him…
Because Yummy Feng Goose knows that there is no way he will die here.
He could guess that Klaus must have reported this information to His Royal Highness Philip – since then, no matter what he said, Klaus could not kill him, or even take action against him. Violence.
Otherwise Klaus himself would be under suspicion.
This is why Klaus stood at the door from the beginning and did not get close to the delicious wind goose at all.
He was worried that the delicious wind goose would suddenly attack him, and he would be forced to subdue him – not to mention the hatred left behind, this injury alone might make His Highness Philip doubt himself.
Of course.
The premise of all this analysis is…
——If the Delicious Wind Goose is really a Noahide.
“I believe what you say.”
Klaus’s tone became much gentler: “You are really smart… This is really great. After you join us, His Highness Philip will definitely have less trouble.”
“Does His Royal Highness Philip have no staff?”
“Of course there is, but not everything can be said to the staff. Ordinary people’s brains are not protected at all, and they don’t even have the right to know the deeper secrets.”
Klaus approached the cell of Delicious Wind Goose, opened the cell door, pulled Delicious Wind Goose up from the ground, and flicked the bullets for him himself.
He said very sincerely: “You may become our colleague in the future. But for safety reasons – really for safety reasons, I can’t return your load to you yet. After all, His Highness Philip still wants to Personally verify your intelligence and abilities…but I think you must be fine.”
“Thank you for your kind words, senior.”
Delicious Wind Goose responded politely.
After he walked out of the cell, he glanced at the cell next door casually and asked casually: “Speaking of which, who is this old man? I think this is not an ordinary prison, right?”
“Of course not. Don’t look at it. There are only two cells here. There are barriers here – if someone tries to break the wall and escape, he will be killed by electric current. All the extraordinary people are imprisoned here… Oh, Not that old man.”
This is not a secret, so Klaus replied readily: “He is a ritualist.”
“Ritualist? What crime has he committed?”
Delicious Wind Goose asked: “Can you tell me, I’m a little curious.”
After all, I had been looking at his body for several days, so it was normal to be a little confused.
Klaus nodded and explained: “Actually, he doesn’t seem to have committed a crime.”
“No crime?”
“Yes, he was sent by the patrol team. According to the law, ritualists can be arrested without committing a crime – because they possess dangerous knowledge. Weapons can be disarmed, but what about possessing knowledge? ”
Klaus shrugged: “If you don’t want to be purged of this knowledge, you can only go to jail. Of course, hiring soul-snatchers also costs money, so usually they are locked up. Delicious and good You will be served even if you drink.
“Maybe one day we will need one of the ritual masters in the prison.”
“But he didn’t even collect the body…”
Delicious Wind Goose had a thoughtful expression on his face: “Is it to cause me psychological pressure?”
“Ah, that’s not the case.”
Klaus couldn’t help but smile and replied casually: “I only noticed that he was dead when I asked you that day. I was thinking about disposing of his body after I went out, but Because there are so many things to remember, I forget them after I go out. It’s really not intentional.”
“Yeah, I think so.”
Delicious Wind Goose smiled: “Who can this scare?”
“Yes, we are all extraordinary beings, not mortals. No one has killed a few people. Putting a corpse here has no meaning other than disgusting people.”
Klaus responded casually.
The delicious wind goose glanced at the old man’s body.
…I always feel like something is wrong. ~IndoMTL.com~ Forgot?
A Silver-level transcendent… His personal abilities have undergone transformation long ago. Whether it is memory or logical thinking ability, they are completely different from the mortal stage.
Does he forget something easily?
Would it be better to say that his thinking has been reversed?
And this old man knows so many rituals, so even if he is imprisoned, he shouldn’t be imprisoned here, right? Why are there no traces of torture on his body?
After being reminded by himself, why hasn’t Klaus realized that something is wrong here?
Didn’t he see the five apples? What about the bowl? Why didn’t the meal delivery person see the old man, but didn’t drag the body away?
This looks unnatural no matter how you look at it…
But the delicious wind goose just took a deep look at the old man’s body, then turned and left.
Shortly after he left.
The old man, who had been dead for a long time and his body was rotting, moved slightly and calmly opened his eyes.
“…Hmm.”
He reached out and picked up the top fresh apple, took a bite and chewed it slowly.
After finishing the apple, the old man got up.
The long-dead traces on his body disappeared without a trace at some point. And his face melted silently, turning into another person in the blink of an eye, and then changed again, and his skinny body became plump again. .
His face was still moving, but he was just frowning in thought and muttering to himself: “Annan? When did he come to Noah?
“…Why didn’t you write to inform me?”
