After more than ten minutes, Annan slowly lowered the blade in his hand.

His Excellency Ken Cartel was very cooperative.

Annan has already asked all the questions he should and can ask.

Directly related to this nightmare is the question of how the "Ritual: The Feast of the Great Hunt" should be destroyed, who is involved in the ritual, when and where, the code of the joint, and so on.

Add to that some questions that have little to do with this nightmare - for example, some personal secrets about royal heirs, the upper echelons of the kingdom...... Even about Noah's opinion of the Rindong people, and their understanding and cognition of the Rindong family, Annan has asked all the questions he can ask.

Of course, is this information itself correct...... Whether Ken is telling the truth or not, and whether there are all the inaccuracies in his own knowledge, there is no guarantee.

But in reality, Annan does not need so much "truth".

All he needed was "understanding", a direction in which he could investigate. Since it is understanding, there is naturally a possibility of remembering and forgetting.

This allows him to play Don Juan or Annan less easily...... As for the deeper things, Annan will check them one by one himself.

"Isn't it useful to break the primer stone......

Annan frowned slightly.

The ritual itself has been structured.

Even if there is no "primer" positioning, the ritual will still be activated - the difference is that this way the ritual is not limited to the "dinner". Rather, it will spread out......

For example, Ferdinand's position is the corner to the southeast of the hexagram. The point at the bottom left of the triangle.

And if this primer breaks...... When the ritual is initiated, the southeast corner will be relocated to the kitchen basement.

That is, everyone from the banquet hall to the kitchen will be locked by the ceremony......

There is no doubt that destroying the primer stone will not "save more people" at all. It may even cost many more lives – the primer stone is not meant to be used for the "initiation ceremony", but to prevent the dangerous ritual from harming itself.

…… Of course, this just can't be eradicated.

If the goal is simply to "reduce casualties", it is still possible. After those people realize that the stone has been destroyed and they are locked by their own rituals, they will only try to perform a few more rituals.

Suppose "those who speak the lines" befall their own people...... They can only choose to "end" and end the ceremony. Even to be on the safe side, they might close it as soon as possible.

Annan knew in his heart that this should be the easiest way to clear customs.

It is also the most preferred way for ordinary people to clear customs.

Annan reset his perception - if the decryption of ordinary people was followed, they could easily enter the garden and meet Kaphne at the beginning. And realize for the first time that Kaphne is a key NPC.

So far, it's basically the same.

But the rest of the people who enter the nightmare need to find a way to gain Kaphne's trust first. Then let her lead the way and find the six key points of the ritual - this is the necessary way to clear the level.

But if there was a problem in gaining Kaphne's trust, it would be a delay...... Then the redhead and Ferdinand will complete the handover. Ferdinand will also get the primer and leave as soon as possible.

And if they couldn't get rid of Merlin when they came to the kitchen, then they couldn't directly attack the redhead under Merlin's surveillance and protection.

In both cases, the Raiders will be able to get the most information that "Ferdinand" is a suspicious figure - either that he is observed leaving the area, or that they have completed the joint.

Ferdinand finished the joint, and there was still more than half an hour before dinner. In this short period of time, it can only be analysed by observing Ferdinand's movements in the ballroom...... And look for opportunities to steal or destroy the primer stone, and perceive the key.

Then find an opportunity to destroy the primer due north - this is the location of the king, and the original ritual must not have included Henry VIII.

Because of this conspiracy, it was apparently presided over by the third prince Philip. His aim was to reduce the number and strength of his siblings...... There may also be a purpose for the two brothers of the Winter family to make up for the knife to please the rotten husband. But he couldn't really kill King Noah.

The reason is also very simple.

The current first in line of succession is not Philip, but Elizabeth. Under Elizabeth, there is also the second prince who is not dead yet. If the two of them don't die first, then King Noah died suddenly without leaving a suicide note, and it will not be his turn to inherit the throne anyway.

So at that time, they can only force it to close.

This may be the original trajectory of history.

It directly led to the tragic death of several heirs, the gradual infiltration of the high-ranking members of Noah's kingdom by the rotten forces, and the death of many nobles and officials who participated in the banquet due to accidents......

But the raiders who go through this process ...... Unless you know this ritual yourself, it is impossible to know why you can clear it this way. Therefore, the solution density must not be high.

If Annan wants to complete the decryption and get the reward, he must use the best possible way to cure the root cause and perfect the strategy......

Annan has three options in mind.

The first is to transfer the four people you want to protect to a certain corner of the six-pointed star. Then quietly destroy the remaining five corners...... If you don't alarm the host of the ceremony and make them realize that something is wrong, they can only stop the ceremony immediately anyway, and they won't even have a fluke mentality.

And it's impossible for this ritual to kill anyone again. Because although it is said that it is random, the person who is going to die is after all named by the "tragic writer" himself...... In order to ensure dramatization, he might be the first to kill the king. But Annan suspects that this may not be too dense...... Because this is completely a way to clear customs that can be "blindfolded".

This is probably why Elizabeth was kept alive - as long as Elizabeth was not enclosed in the ceremony, and the king was enclosed in the ceremony, they could only be released immediately. This is the lightest customs clearance ceremony.

The second is to directly destroy the ritual itself, which must be the most perfect method. This ritual has been completed, and the "tragic writer" is summoned and watched from the spectators...... As soon as an explosion occurs and the "opening" condition is triggered, the ceremony will officially begin.

In this case, the forcible termination of the ritual is bound to clash head-on with the "tragic writer". The "tragic writer" is so angry that he may even send a few messengers directly to kill those who have broken the ritual. This must be the most difficult way to clear the customs - in this case, you have to ensure that your identity is not revealed, at least Annan has no confidence.

Annan could only choose the third way.

Think about it first......

The owner of this nightmare...... Whose could it be?
