The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 82: Vladimir, the Defying Winter
The former of the two saints is a transformation wizard who came from the Jade Tower of Denisoya Kingdom.
He did not inherit the position of tower master, but instead chose the profession of "Forbidden Doctor"...learning spells across schools.
At the same time, he also studied the path of ritual. Collected a lot of mysterious knowledge.
He is a great wise man who has reached the end of both the road of sublimation and the road of ritual.
It is said that he has mastered all the rituals in the world and can use all spells... Of course, it is only "supposedly".
No one would be surprised that he was recognized by the [Eye of Patience]. After all, he is the one who can directly become the pope of the mysterious lady if he wants to. To be able to do this, one must be a "very patient" person.
The holder of [Skull of Honesty] is the opposite.
If the "Extremely Wonderful Man" is a great person with outstanding abilities that everyone recognizes, then the "Silent Man" is a guy who is so low-key that no one knows why he became a saint. .
But he is indeed a saint.
Saint Peter is Mr. Yao’s pope, and one of the very few who can become a saint.
On the outside, he is a short man with a gentle temper and low-key behavior.
He is so low-key that no one understands what the "Honesty Skull" is capable of and why he was chosen. He never came forward to answer people's questions.
After all, compared with attributes such as "patience" and "courage", "honesty" is really difficult to judge. It is even more difficult to deduce what qualities he possesses that can be recognized as a saint by the holy bones.
If honesty means not lying, even some monks whose foundational power is related to the field of "truth" will spend their entire lives without telling a lie.
In fact, decades ago, there was a gold-level monk who had a knot in his heart because the "Honest Skull" chose such a weirdo instead of himself. Even until his soul was exhausted and he died, there was still no release.
This Saint Peter has never even shown the power of his elements, let alone fought with others.
——The strangest thing is that he never prayed in front of others.
It is not like other righteous popes who always hold meetings and organize various grand blessing ceremonies and festivals several times a year. It is also not like them who are gentle and polite to everyone, and treat others like a spring breeze. It can also maintain its majesty.
If this kind of thing was not true, some people would have long suspected whether he was the Pope of Ms. Jingjing instead of Mr. Yao.
He is just too "quiet".
No matter what he does, whether it is a festival or a service, he will hide in a place where others cannot see him.
As a leader, doing nothing will definitely make things worse. But every time we encountered a crisis, things always somehow got back on track.
At first, people just thought that the pope was lucky and could turn disaster into good fortune.
A less polite way of saying it is, "Stupid people are blessed with stupid things."
But after decades of good luck...that's not right.
So people regarded it as an unpredictable method - after all, he was the longest-lived gold-level transcendent, an old turtle who lived for more than a hundred years. It’s normal to not understand the means.
What is even more concerning is that after he obtained the Honest Head, he never said a word in front of others.
He did not become mute. At least the internal cardinal meetings and the "Pure Hall" can still speak, and several generations of popes have taken turns. But he was too taciturn.
It is the duty of the pope to bless people, the priests under his command, and those who encounter misfortune.
Not to mention that he is the Pope of the God of Purification...His priests are always fighting on the front line of fighting nightmares, and their mortality rate is very high.
But he never said a word, shed a tear, or even attended their funerals.
Even if it was just words to acknowledge the dead and comfort the living, such as "He was a great man", "He was a good boy", "I feel sad for their passing", etc., he never said Pass.
This also made the Theocratic people have some long-standing dissatisfaction with him.
However, although some people think that the method of "maintaining honesty through silence" is really ugly, he has indeed served as a saint for nearly a hundred years.
The popes of his generation have changed six times, and the sons of his friends have all died of old age, but he is still sitting on the throne of the pope, as stable as a mountain. The connections accumulated over the years have gradually grown.
He doesn’t need to say a word, and Mr. Yao’s church can continue to operate tacitly. 139
Though St. Peter was always scolded, he was certainly a well-known figure.
Can "Alfonso"...
"In my impression, there seems to be no one named Alfonso."
Annan doesn't mince words.
Nefertari was silent for a moment.
"My elder brother is the saint who was given the holy bones of 'courage' by the teacher."
She explained tactfully.
...The thief saint?
Annan frowned slightly.
"I don't want to be too rude..."
He said slowly: "But is your brother still alive?"
Annan had heard some knowledge about the holy bones in Pofisi's nightmare.
According to his understanding, souls that have not reached gold are simply unable to carry the power of the holy bones. Once the holy bones are forcibly used, the soul will soon collapse and disintegrate...the lifespan will not exceed one month at most.
Ghirlandaio ignored Nefertari’s awkward smile, lightly knocked on the table and said slowly:
"According to my understanding, the person who would satisfy the Holy Skeleton the most would not actually be a gold-level transcendent. Not even a transcendent...but someone who has not embarked on the path to transcendence or the path of ritual. Ordinary people. They will probably die in less than a month.
"Or is it that the 'Bone Healer' can allow a Silver-level transcendent to use the power of the holy bones without dying?"
Hearing this, Nefertari’s eyes lit up——
"You really know this!"
Most people would never know that not all gold-level people could master the holy bones. Because the top officials of various countries, in order to prevent people from competing for the holy bones, have never mentioned this knowledge in any records!
Because the power poured into the holy bones can instantly elevate ordinary people to gold-level strength. And after they die, they will turn into a huge twisted nightmare.
That's why the Holy Skeleton, in addition to being an extremely rare treasure, has also become a trouble that is difficult to deal with.
——Even elves with magical powers must make dragon sleeping potions to let their hearts of justice sleep.
In order to collect enough dragon blood to make dragon sleep potion, Porfis's mother even sold a painting to the dragon who was willing to sell the blood - this painting later became the "Paper Princess". And the dragon clan who sold blood back then also gave his life and soul for Zhi Ji.
If it hadn't been for this, maybe the current God of Falsehood would no longer be Paper Princess. ~IndoMTL.com~ From this perspective, the price of temporarily sleeping the heart of justice was even the life of a god.
Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is enough to prove the troubles of the holy bones.
"The teacher's experiment...actually failed half of it."
Nefertari answered honestly: "As you said, my brother's body is on the verge of collapse. Even if a teacher is repairing it, I'm afraid he won't survive this year.
"But if my brother is allowed to deviate from the path of courage and abandon the holy bones, he will die immediately and turn into a terrible nightmare. Those ignorant people who come to seek the cause of fearlessness have no idea that they inherit [the fearless spirit] What will happen after the bone].
"But [Fearless Bones] are multiple holy bones. If someone can inherit the way of courage, they can be transplanted in batches. In this case, my brother may not have to die."
Nefertari explained seriously: "We have previously contacted the 'Daughter of the Storm' Maria of the Principality of Winter, and the 'Lightcaster' Gregory VII of the Theocracy, as well as our underground 'Captain in the Stone' Selicia and 'The Winter Defender' Vladimir asked them if they wanted to inherit the [Fearless Bone], but except for Vladimir, they all refused.
“But Vladimir the Winter Defiant once betrayed the Principality of Winter. There is no guarantee what he will do after becoming a saint... We don’t want to offend the Principality of Winter, but we don’t want Alfonso to do this either. Die and become an irresolvable nightmare."
When she said this, she looked eagerly at Annan Lindong:
“——Since you are here to find the Heart of Justice, you must have reached the golden level.
"If I have a way to allow you to master two kinds of holy bones at the same time. Are you willing to test... the compatibility with [Fearless Bone]?"
