Although the rules of this nightmare have been roughly determined.

But when they were about to enter the other branches, they encountered an unexpected difficulty.

- That is, you can't lose even if you want to.

Under the rules of the Tower of Fantasy, challengers are not allowed to admit defeat.

And each time, before the end of the first round, the rotten man recognizes that he is in a nightmare. To be on the safe side, the rotten man will choose to throw in the towel in the first game every time.

This is not a new approach.

Annan could recognize the purpose of the rotten man at a glance.

No doubt...... He wanted to purify this nightmare quickly and put an end to it.

It's not about knocking all the enemies back.

Rather, they follow the enemy's train of thought, but they are powerless.

- This is indeed the unique style of the rotten man.

The first time Annan fought the rotten man, he was able to resist almost all of the negativity...... But he couldn't resist the bewitching fragrance of the rotten man.

Because that's not "malice" to hurt others.

Rather, it is a "harmful kindness" that can be easily indulged in.

The rotten man never believed that "fear", "pain", and "deterrence" could truly suppress others. His life experience has taught him the most effective and thorough way to control a person...... Not intimidation, but temptation.

He seduces mortals with immortality and rebirth, incapacitates them with relaxing fragrances, and shields others from their perceptions with warm touches......

He is deliberately getting used to others.

Just like when he controlled the Calamus King, he consciously and maliciously raised others and abolished them

Now, he wanted to hide some kind of secret that he had hidden in Game Three. But instead of using all his strength to resist the invasion of strangers and prevent others from purifying their nightmares...... Instead, the method of "helping others clear the nightmare quickly" is used to speed up the cleansing process of the nightmare and silently eliminate the total number of times the nightmare is eliminated.

I have to say.

Such a decision by the rotten man was very useful, but it brought a considerable degree of trouble to Annan and them.

Once a nightmare has been purified, it is almost impossible to refill it - it's fine to use it to make a new one, but the secrets hidden in the nightmare are not available. The rewards for clearing customs and decryption after purifying the nightmare will also definitely change.

After the Husky and Thirteen Incense purified the nightmare twice, they sealed it for the time being.

Because this nightmare can only be purified ten times in total.

Now a third of it has been used, but let alone entering the third game, I haven't even seen a new ending.

Out of an abundance of caution, Annan once again used the player's power.

Mainly relies on the analytical power of the three "wise men" of the Four Dark Carvings, Delicious Wind Goose and Longjing Tea, plus Annan himself to discuss - Annan is not because he is very smart, he will ignore other people's opinions of that type of wise man.

This is especially true for this kind of problem solving that is not a fixed way of thinking.

Annan believes in the possibility of "one more person, one more road". Even if the other person is not able to put forward any practical opinions, the "discussion about a certain possibility" itself will inspire others to do so.

And this inspiration will immediately return to the discussion as nourishment for new inspiration.

This is known as the brainstorming method.

After everyone's discussion, Thirteen Spices and the Husky finally found an effective way to lose the game in front of the rotten man.

The most fundamental idea was put forward by Annan, who knew Dmitry quite well.

- because Annan realized that in real history...... It should be Dmitry, not Annan, who should lose.

This is determined backwards from Dmitry's train of thought.

If Dmitry loses the first game and wins the second game with Annan's strong carry. In this case, he will boldly use the power of the werewolf Bella in the third game to completely relax.

And if he wins the first game, then according to Dmitry's trust in Annan's intelligence, he must be sure that Annan will win the second game as well.

So in this case, if Annan loses...... He will definitely be wary of rotten people. After Bella's backstab in the third game, it wouldn't have hit Dmitry so hard – he would have taken it for granted.

Because when Annan was defeated, he already had a premonition of defeat.

This is not a logical reasoning, but an emotional judgment based on Annan's understanding of Dmitry.

Other words.

If you can convince the rot man that Dmitry played by Thirteen Incense is real, and don't let the rot man realize that this is a nightmare for the time being. You can import it into real history.

- So that in the rotten man, he lost the first game smoothly!

Then regardless of the outcome of the second game, they can move on to a new ending.

If there is a win and a loss, the werewolf Bella's side will be able to activate.

And even if you are beaten by the serious rotten man, you may be able to see a new plot.

- The result did not surprise Annan.

The night before Annan prepared to leave for Noah.

Thirteen incense finally lost the first game through her excess acting skills.

Of course, it is impossible for a husky to win at the hands of a serious rotter......

So Annan just saw a new ending.

Because Mary did not arrange the dream ceremony in time, this was only seen by Annan himself.

And in this ending, Annan is in addition to the reason for Bella's betrayal.

I also saw my former self, with an unexpected person......

"Bella."

Vladimir's emotionless, ice-cold and colorless voice rang out behind the werewolf Bella.

Bella turned around in some panic, and immediately lowered her head when she saw someone coming.

"Teacher ......"

"Your voice hesitates."

Vladimir interrupted her: "Why are you hesitating? ”

"I'm thinking, about Dmitry......"

"You don't need to think, and you don't need to think."

The middle-aged man with frost hair said quietly.

As he spoke, white frost overflowed from his mouth.

It looked like when he took a hard puff of cigarette and spoke slowly.

"The Winter Hand is just a tool. It's the dog of winter, that's all.

"Don't think that just because Your Highness touched your head, he is in love with you. Humans are different from dogs. ”

There was no emotion in Vladimir's voice: "It is impossible for him to have a child with you and marry you." Because he was the eldest son of Grand Duke Ivan, he would eventually marry a Melvin or a Rasputin. If their children were girls, they would be in charge of guarding the Tower of Storms; If it's a boy, he'll join the Hand of Winter, and eventually I'll take charge of the Frostbeast Army.

"You're just—and can only be his lover."

“…… Don't have a chance? ”

"No, because that's fate. [People are different from each other], and bloodline is the proof of fate. ”

The middle-aged man didn't even look directly at Bella. Or rather, there was no Bella in his eyes at all.

He just looked calmly ahead, staring at the Grand Duke's Mansion, his pupils like ice fields without blinking: "Since birth, your fate has been sealed. ”

“…… But if my fate was really predestined, then I would have died in my hometown long ago. ”

Bella gritted her teeth and tried to be brave enough to distinguish with her teacher: "It is precisely because I have overcome my fate that I have been able to get here, to meet you, the teacher, and to meet His Highness Dmitry...... Acquaintance ......"

"That's also part of fate. Your birth determines that you will leave your homeland, your talents determine that you will be able to cross the storm, and when you come to the Frost Province, you are destined to meet me, and if you meet me, you will definitely meet His Highness Dmitry. ”

Vladimir's gaze finally moved.

He looked at Bella: "I saw today when I handed my cane to your homeless puppy.

"-So, why do you think I didn't stop you?"

With such a simple movement, Bella's legs were so weak that she could barely stand up.

At that moment, through Vladimir's eyes, she seemed to see the white wilderness.

It was a world with nothing but Blizzard.

Fear that nearly froze her mind flooded her mind.

Not the fear of death per se, but the fear of "all things to nothing" -

"Obey me, Bella."

Vladimir's voice still did not rise or fall: "Return to me." Come help me. ”
