Chapter 178: How can a face-to-face assassination fail

Just when Annan was thinking about Salvatore, Salvatore took the initiative to get in touch with Annan as if he had a heart.

"Annan? Can you hear me? ”

In the floor-to-ceiling mirror of Annan's bathroom, Salvatore's face emerges.

It can be seen that Salvatore is somewhat nervous.

He moved a small stool and sat upright in front of the mirror in his formal suit. He leaned forward slightly, his hands on his laps.

He glanced at Dongzhi's hand, which was standing behind Annan, only half of his body was exposed, and looked a little embarrassed: "There are still people over there......"

"That's just an elder who takes care of my daily life."

The water on Annan's body had not been completely dried, and his hair was a little wet. The upper body is draped in heavy, furry clothes.

He smiled softly and harmlessly: "My family is very insecure. They always felt that maybe I would be taken away at some point...... So when I'm at home, there's usually at least one person staring at me. ”

"That must be uncomfortable."

"It's also a good thought."

Annan replied.

He tilted his head: "Is there anything wrong with me suddenly?" Still is...... Experiment with this new ritual? ”

"Oh yes, Annan!"

Hearing Annan's words, Salvatore reacted: "This is my newly developed ritual, what do you think?" ”

"Mirror realm?"

"That's right!"

Salvatore's eyebrows were full of exhaustion, but his tone was quite excited: "I thought before that the teacher is now the Pope of the Man in the Mirror...... Can I see the man in the mirror with my own eyes? ”

"The result?"

"It turned out to be really good!"

Senior Salvatore happily shared what he saw: "Before the Ascension Ceremony of the Man in the Mirror, he was my idol!" His ability to bring golems to life, as well as his skill in manipulating time, are something I admire and envy...... But I don't have the adaptability of the idol school, so I can only envy it.

"I'm asking for a signed token of the person in the mirror this time - it can be used as a real name an infinite number of times, and it has a considerable amount of power in itself. With the effect of this token providing a steady stream of 'infinitely overlapping reverberations', I was able to experiment with new rituals in the mirror realm! ”

And as a result, you made a video call?

Annan's expression was a little strange.

But it's really handy......

"What's the name of this ritual? How does it consume? ”

"I call it [Reflecting the Mirror of Friends]."

"That's a pretty straightforward name."

"I couldn't think of any cool names for a while...... The material is simple. In addition to the influence of the person in the mirror, all I need to do is attach my friend's drawing to the back of the mirror, add the snake's egg liquid, the eagle's eye extract, and the tears of the white calf, plus the curse that provides the power of the curse - this part of which I use my own blood for the time being.

"As for what kind of cheaper and stable spells to replace in the future...... I'll find another way to optimize it. ”

Speaking of this, Salvatore smiled brightly: "After all, I sleep less than ordinary people...... You know that, too. ”

"Well, after all, I'm your keeper of secrets."

Annan nodded.

After Clarence's death, Salvatore's keeper was transferred to Annan.

Because of the curse [Sleepless Reflection], Salvatore was forced to stay up late every day. I can't go to bed until 3 a.m., and I have to wake up at 9 a.m.......

And the second spell he received when he advanced to Silver also allowed him to sleep no more than six hours a day - for each hour of sleep, his apparent age would shrink by one year, but his lifespan would not increase.

…… But in general, there are ways to circumvent it.

After all, in terms of judgment, coma is not sleep.

So Salvatore's mood calmed down - as long as he stayed up all night until he fell into a coma, he would be able to catch up on his sleep logically.

Once you accept such a setting, then this is a reasonable excuse to stay up late and work overtime.

"But you're specifically here to contact me, just to test the effects of the ritual?"

Annan asked.

"I've actually tried it twice in the case of 'long distance' and 'name change' - this time mainly to see if this ritual can cross the Great Barrier and achieve foreign communication. The results are clearly good. ”

Salvatore was obviously in a good mood: "In addition, I would like to tell you about the news from Noah's side...... You're so clean that I can't get in touch with anyone. ”

As he spoke, he began to complain.

"Alright, alright," Annan comforted him, "What's the news?" About Kaphne? ”

“…… Yes, but it doesn't matter. There is a fallen man named Blood Demon in the royal capital, you know, right? He is quite demonic, and the [Appendages] have almost been formed, which is about equivalent to the golden level without the awakening element. ”

Salvatore reminisced as he said softly, "But he was killed not long ago. ”

"The [Ritual Master Killer]? Wasn't he killed a long time ago? ”

"Originally, Philip thought that he had killed the Blood Fiend, but he didn't expect that the Blood Demon only had a head left, but he still didn't die."

Salvatore explained: "Later, he was attacked by the Blood Demon in his room...... Seemingly very embarrassed, his lover was also killed by the Bloodfiend. But he was lucky to be safe in the end. ”

“…… Philip isn't dead? ”

Annan was surprised: "How did he do it?" ”

He wasn't surprised that the Blood Demon wasn't dead.

Because at that time, it was the delicious wind goose that dealt with the Blood Demon - he deliberately did not kill the Blood Demon.

It was originally a collaboration between them. It's just that very few people know about it.

But what makes Annan strange is ...... Why didn't Bloodseeker kill the unsuspecting Philip?

Philip wasn't a gold-level transcendent.

Neither transcendent nor degenerate. It's just a veteran ceremonist.

How can you stab the big crispy in the face, and how can it still fail? This hurt is poured to death.

Are you ashamed?

However, Salvatore vaguely figured out something from Annan's attitude.

“…… Is the Blood Fiend your man? ”

Salvatore's expression suddenly became very strange. His upper body lifted back sharply and made a difficult tactical backswing.

"Be careful not to fall over."

Annan reminded, "Also, the Blood Demon is not my man. It's just that it was the delicious wind goose that brought the blood demon to Philip's house. ”

"I see......"

Salvatore was suddenly a little regretful.

After knowing that assassinating Philip was Annan's idea, he suddenly changed his mind and no longer felt sorry for Philip, but began to turn around but pity that Philip was not dead: "It should be that you didn't communicate well."

"The Bloodseeker didn't actually jump out to assassinate Philip on his own initiative, but his presence was discovered. He was forced to jump out and assassinate him – but failed. ”

"He's been discovered?"

"Yes."

Salvatore replied: "It is the sacrificial saint, 'the one who is opposed to himself.'" He traveled to the royal capital in search of the Blood Demon...... Anyone who uses 'flesh' as a trait will be found and killed by him. This is the one thing he has done the most in the past ten years.

"His purpose is to prevent the holy bones of the 'sacrificial flesh' from falling into the hands of the degenerate."
