The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 441: So Annan, what’s the price?

Of course Salvatore knew.

The first tower owner of the Black Tower in the Zeland was Prometheus, the "Fire Stealer".

In the endless desert, the most dangerous thing is not the blazing sun.

But when night falls, the endless darkness.

That living desert will swallow the people inside when night falls. In other words...as long as [Light] is lost in the desert, it will be swallowed directly by the sand under your feet.

So if you want to pass through the endless desert over there, you must have enough lights and... fuel.

The most difficult part is the fuel.

Because ordinary flames can illuminate only a short distance in that desert. The darkness there was like something with texture and weight.

In order to solve this lightless dilemma, an elf named Prometheus chose to advance and became the "Fire Stealer".

He stole the "third ray" of the sun.

——That is, "the bright fire that burns forever".

He used his own flesh and blood as firewood and wisdom as fuel to extract the "endless fire"... which is what people call the "Holy Fire". A bright white flame that will burn forever as long as people think about it.

People rushed out of the living desert holding torches burning with blazing holy fire.

At that time, Prometheus' whole body was withered and like a walking corpse. He looked like a lanky ghost with an extremely thin waist. His legs and arms were even so thin that an eight-year-old girl could hold them with one hand.

At that time, the mysterious lady wanted to build twenty-four wizard towers all over Yasselan to support the great barrier.

In addition to the first responsibility of "just exist".

Each wizard tower has its own different meaning and mission.

The meaning of Zedi Black Tower is to produce the "holy fire".

The holy fire is one of the top cursed materials... It is the flame that Suifu needs when he creates the treasure; it can gradually transform the mortals within the range of the fire, making them clear-minded; at the same time, it can also As the fire of order, it protects the extraordinary people who hold the torch and rush outside the barrier.

Within the scope of the holy fire, the gray mist cannot enter.

During the heyday of the Yasselan Empire, there were holy fire towers throughout the empire. Each cauldron is a huge statue of a hero.

The elven sages sat in meditation in front of the statues of the sages, or had heated debates. Dedicate your wisdom and keep the holy fire burning brightly - but by then the great barrier has been built, and people no longer need the holy fire to resist the gray fog.

The more significance is to commemorate the sacrifices of the past saints by letting people not forget them.

But during the **** battle, all the sacred flames were extinguished.

War exhausts people's minds. The more important mission of wise people is to assist their lord in conquering the world, rather than to study knowledge.

Today, the holy fire can only be obtained from the fire thief.

And Hugo is currently the only fire thief.

Of course... there will be Salvatore in the future.

"Why does Bernardino need the Holy Fire?"

Salvatore blurted out subconsciously.

Why does a soul-stealing wizard who has advanced from "Necromancer" need to use the holy fire to complete the "work of creation"?

But he quickly reacted: "No, it's not important... where is the teacher! Was the teacher also killed by him?"

Salvatore's emotions were a little out of control: "Why can he defeat the teacher? The teacher is the most powerful transformation wizard in the world!"

His fingers were trembling.

Annan suddenly stretched out his hand and silently and forcefully grasped Salvatore's left hand. Feeling the warmth of Annan's palm and the pain in his finger bones from being pinched by Annan - Salvatore also calmed down a little because of the pain.

To be honest, Salvatore had no sorrow or pain in his heart.

There is only confusion, panic and disbelief.

Hearing this suddenly, he really had no real feelings.

"I don't know what he is going to do."

Sir Silver replied calmly: "As for Hugo Black Tower...he is still alive. And he has the upper hand. Even the entire swamp has been dried up by the aftermath of the battle, and the surrounding swamps for several miles have been Not a single living thing exists.

"Before Hugo's soul burns out, he may be able to suppress Bernardino. Because the Black Tower of Zedi will provide him with unlimited order mana... but the Wizard Tower cannot provide him with elements after all. power.

"Bernardino completely gave up his body and refined his flesh and blood into an unfinished version of the Philosopher's Stone. When he attacked Denton before, he obtained the extremely pure Philosopher's Stone. ...He also built an automatic transformation circle to automatically transform the people he killed into philosopher's stones, and thus completed the great achievement of [Four Wheels of Operation].

"If Hugo had made a decisive decision and burned all the wizards in the tower to death, he might have defeated Bernardino thirty-seven hours later. But he did not make a move until the end...so the wizards could not help. Any busy work can only help Bernardino.

“This time he also brought ‘Emerald Record’ Isaac and ‘Dream Stealer’ Denton, as well as twelve Frost Whisperer souls – this is all his reserves, all of which are used for 'Countermeasures' to defend Hugo. Bernardino's preparation is also a protracted battle... and with the addition of the wizards from the Black Tower of the Zei, Hugo is no longer able to defeat Bernardino."

So, it was only a matter of time before Hugo lost.

Sir Silver calmly told the cruel truth: "In about fifty-two hours, Hugo's soul will be completely burned out.

"However, with the spirit-bearing monk's 'spiritual spell', he can probably still retain consciousness. With Bernardino's spirit-creating skills and filling it with other souls as nutrients, he can be resurrected at the soul level. If you can defeat him one day, you might be able to get Hugo back.

"——Oh, by the way, Bernardino also retained Clarence's soul."

Sir Silver said slowly.

He seemed to be hinting at something.

Salvatore gritted his teeth.

"I..."

I'm going - that's what he wanted to say.

But Salvatore's rationality told him that if there was an enemy that Hugo couldn't defeat even in the Wizard Tower, he might have no chance of defeating it.

He himself is an "alchemist", the weakest transcendent.

And the other party is someone who can even kill his own teacher...

Even if he goes, there is nothing he can do and nothing he can do——

"—Go, Thrall."

But at this moment, Shadow's extremely serious voice sounded hoarsely in his heart: "You want to go.

"So what if you die? You are the son of the Black Tower! If the Black Tower is gone, wouldn't your last name... feel absurd and shameful?"

"But I..."

Salvatore clenched his teeth, his fingers no longer trembled, but his chest felt tight.

That's when.

Annan turned around and looked at Sir Silver.

"If I want to ask you to take action..."

He looked at Sir Silver and asked slowly.

Sir Silver picked Annan and told Salvatore about it when he was here.

I just want to tell him all about it.

If Salvatore himself knew about this, he would definitely leave secretly in order not to involve Annan.

However, since Annan knew about this...he would not allow Salvatore to die on his own.

Seeing Annan asking this question, Sir Yin showed a true smile on his face.

It was as if he had been waiting for this question for a long time.

Make a clear voice and ask word for word: "So, Annan——

"What's the price?"

"The price..."

"Yes, we will protect your safety, and we will even make a mirror for you to speed up your birth.

"But I will not kill your mirror for you. This is your own mission. We can give you tuition, teach you knowledge, and help you review...but we will not help you take the exam. Don't want to, No, and cannot."

Sir Silver said calmly: "He is your mirror, Annan.

"Your first mirror is Don Juan Geraint. A boy with the same outstanding talents, wisdom, and gentle personality. He is also about to become the heir of the family, but he was murdered by a corrupt man in his infancy. The 'Third Son~IndoMTL.com~ is also a swordsman and a disabled wizard, and even has similar bloodline... There is no doubt that you are similar to him.

"——But your talents are far better than his, and your mind is stronger than his. The most pure, powerful and bright, dividing different destinies, this is the first light."

"Your second mirror was originally Denton. But he was afraid of the confrontation with you as a supporting role, so he ran away from his fate and took the unhatched fragment of truth that belonged to him. Put into the soul of Viscount Rossburg.

"——You are both people who have suffered from countless failures, but you have never given up hope. The hope that never fades and is always new is the light of the second light."

"Your third mirror is Henry VIII. Like him, you have never felt love since you were born...but you have a family that you cherish and a kingdom that you value, but he hates it. Your own bloodline and mission. You are more similar to him.

"——You are both people who have never understood love from the beginning of your destiny, but the love for the world and others in your heart will never go out. The fire that never goes out, this is the third day... …This is also what you are about to get, the third fragment of truth."

"...But you said, the price."

Annan said slowly: "In other words, there is still room here...right."

"Yes, after all, I am the God of Trade. As long as there is a price, there is nothing that cannot be negotiated."

Sir Yin's lips slightly raised. He patted Annan on the shoulder, stood up and turned his back to Annan, and said calmly: "Go to the funeral first. This is what you promised me. We will talk about the rest later.

"We still have a lot of time."

——At least, there are still fifty-two hours.
