The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 9: What bad thoughts can a kitten have?
Although he has not yet spoken to Hugo Tower Master, Annan has already roughly guessed... Hugo Tower Master may not want to pass the position of Tower Master to Salvatore.
During the previous battle with the Spirit-bearing Monk, Master Hugo Tower burned too many souls in order to further stimulate the power of his elements.
Based on frontal combat power alone, even with the Philosopher's Stone, "Spirit-bearing Monk" Bernardino is completely unable to fight against "Fire Stealer" Hugo.
Master Hugo Tower is not just an ordinary gold-level wizard.
He is the most powerful transformation wizard in the world with the most direct combat effectiveness. The eternally burning holy fire fueled by wisdom and will can directly burn the soul regardless of all defenses.
Any matter that tries to block him will be distorted into other forms by his transformation spell.
Rock formations that cannot burn will turn into dry trees, and solid metal walls can turn into corals - and after the holy fire falls on you, as long as you are still thinking and have a clear will, this high-heat holy fire will Burn your soul forever.
Therefore, even the Spirit-bearing Monk, who brought a bunch of targeted spirits back then, never thought of directly defeating Hugo.
Even in that situation, if Hugo is a little cruel and burns all his students to death with holy fire... As long as they are not made into materials for the Philosopher's Stone by the Spirit-bearing Monk, the fully-equipped Spirit-bearing Monk will The monk will even be killed directly by Hugo, unable to escape.
At that time, the spirit-bearing monk who obtained the infinite blue, all he could do was wait until Hugo's life burned out.
...But using your own limited elemental power to fight against the spirit-bearing monks who can be continuously replenished is still a very draining act for the Hugo Pagoda Master.
According to Sir Silver at the time, Hugo's offensive of burning his soul to maintain his heyday could last approximately fifty-two hours.
It only took Annan one day to prepare everything and fight to the Black Tower of Zedi.
The owner of Hugo Tower also told Annan at that time that he could live for at least several years.
At least he can survive until Salvatore advances to gold and can protect Salvatore to complete the inheritance ceremony.
It has only been half a year now.
...Did something unexpected happen to Master Hugo Tower?
Although Annan didn't want to casually think of others as dying... but Hugo suddenly asked Annan to come to him and didn't want Salvatore to know, that was probably the case.
Annan has never been a person who likes to do unnecessary things.
Since Hugo told him this, Annan really did not mention this matter to Salvatore.
Hugo is an elder, Salvatore’s mentor, and he is also a top strong man. Most importantly, he is the inheritor of Prometheus, the "Fire Stealer" and one of the guardians of this world.
Just like Maria.
As the tower masters of the wizard tower, they are probably guarding something, inheriting something, and guarding something.
When the elder called, Annan naturally did not dare to refuse.
He and "Imbalanced Beauty" Vasika made some plans and planned to slightly advance the plan originally scheduled for mid-July.
So some adjustments need to be made.
Maria and Dmitry cannot leave Winter for the time being, otherwise the Rasputin family will not be stable now.
But Annan can indeed leave first.
Maria has returned to the Tower of Storms - she has to go back there from time to time. Then the only candidate left to replace Annan in working overtime is Dmitri.
In fact, in terms of government affairs, there are not many things that require the Grand Duke’s personal signature.
The Hand of Winter, a supervisory organization with extremely high powers and responsible only to the Grand Duke of Winter, can supervise the political power as the [Acting Grand Duke] to a considerable extent.
Annan has only succeeded to the throne for three months now, and has had little communication with the Hands of Winter.
They have not yet realized that Annan has lost control of the Hand of Winter's life, death and plunder. Moreover, Annan has begun to arrange for players to join in - many of the newly recruited players in the same batch as Shisanxiang Husky can be transferred to the Hand of Winter.
So even if Annan leaves the principality directly, there is no need to worry about any problems in a short time.
Annan had long expected that he might leave the Principality of Winter often - except for the holy days in December every year and Annan's birthday on March 14th, he had to stay with him in the Principality of Winter... …Other times it wouldn’t be a problem to leave.
For "security reasons" after being assassinated before, Annan, as a "frail boy of fifteen", refused any non-essential private meetings.
What is a necessary situation, you ask?
Then you should first ask His Highness Dmitry to see if His Majesty Annan’s brother thinks your situation is necessary.
- As a result, due to Dmitri's overtime work, almost all the work was blocked by Dmitri. Dmitry had complained to Annan before.
Because he has heard some strange rumors. It is said that His Highness Dmitri has alienated his young brother...
"Hey, did I ignore you? I actually ignored you, right? You let me make my own decisions about important things like that. Could it be that I am the Grand Duke of Winter? But what if it is you? , you don’t care about the winter government affairs at all...but why should I handle the government affairs for you to the point where I don’t even have a vacation?"
Are all the idlers working so hard these days?
Mr. Dmitri's voice was full of exhaustion and dissatisfaction.
Obviously, he is not as good at overtime as Salvatore.
But he will always grow.
Annan cast a loving look at his brother who was complaining like this.
——Sooner or later, Dmitri will adapt to this state of Annan not doing anything. He won't complain then.
Annan has not appeared in informal settings for a long, long time.
The next event that requires Annan to attend in person is the Humidity Day on October 10th. On this day, all farmers need to sacrifice some prepared rotten plants to the earth in the name of the moth mother to increase the fertility of the soil.
Because this is an important ceremony that directly involves the two gods, the rulers of various countries and the pope must attend and speak.
In other words, Annan can spend four months outside at the latest before returning home...
But Dmitri really doesn’t have to stay that long.
In another month, after Annan's problem in the underground city is resolved, he can pick up Dmitry and go on a "family trip" with Maria to the United Kingdom.
Leave the whole mess of the principality to Vasika and let her go fishing.
She would actually put on a good show and force out those people who were written down in Annan's notebook. When they become extremely arrogant, the old grandmother will wake up from her dream in a daze.
When she opens her eyes, she will see her innocent and weak offspring being laughed and bullied by a group of old people——
What bad thoughts can a kitten have?
Of course, Annan is not talking about himself.
It refers to Vasika instead.
Because Vasika is really a little kitten...
If Annan wanted to rebuild the Great Barrier and unite the five countries into one, that would be the best time. So Annan planned to make at least one trip to each country before the old grandmother woke up to see for herself what was going on.
The virtual world invasion may occur at any time, and the worm seems to have escaped.
It seems to be extremely peaceful now... but only a few people know that the crisis is approaching.
Theoretically, the Theocracy should have the best countermeasures... but it is obviously impossible for them to talk to the players.
Annan will still have to make a trip in person.
Anyway, there is nothing to do while staying in the Principality of Winter. Considering that Sir Hugo has already begun to summon Annan, his body may not be able to hold on for long - and Annan has been in the cold winter for two months since he returned from the Kingdom of Noah in early April, and he is indeed a little restless. .
So Annan made a prompt decision——
Go to Noah again... Bah, go to Noah on a business trip.
Annan himself can leave with the Winter Certificate that has degenerated into a "two-color scepter".
Dmitry was left behind to handle government affairs for him, while keeping the other organizers out. ~IndoMTL.com~ In order not to alert others, Annan did not bring any of the "Ten Fingers" or the Hand of Winter with him on this trip, but only followed two strange players, Shi Sanxiang and Husky, on the " Return Home” subway.
——Of course, Annan did not report this matter to Maria.
Because she will definitely not agree.
In order to avoid the eyes and ears of this ubiquitous "storm", Annan even put on the strongest makeup when he left the Grand Duke's Palace——
He transformed into the appearance of [Last Work] David after a long absence.
In the end, if he was accidentally discovered, Dmitry would be the one who got beaten anyway.
Just like an elder brother takes his younger brother to an Internet cafe, it is the elder brother who gets beaten; when the younger brother goes to an Internet cafe by himself, it is his elder brother who gets beaten.
At this point, Maria’s thinking has been flexible from childhood to adulthood...
