Chapter 288: It's Time to Release the Player (Third Update)

Salvatore hesitated when he heard this.

He thought about it for a while, but then he said to Annan:

"Can you give me a copy of that contact information?"

…… No, I want to give it too.

But this one is really not......

Annan shook his head with a wry smile and explained, "This can't work, they have a contractual relationship with me...... It's the one you've seen before. ”

"The contract that can be resurrected?"

Thinking of the dead and alive that day, Salvatore suddenly realized: "Is that one so far away from you also effective?" ”

"As long as I'm not dead, it works, but they're so far away from me that resurrection can consume a lot of curses. And it will be weak for a while.

"But if it's really dangerous, you can ask him to explore the way for you."

Annan reminded Salvatore: "After all, they don't really die." ”

…… Or rather, a reminder of Salvatore's shadow.

Annan also knew very well in his heart, even if he told Salvatore that the player could be resurrected, he could launch it at a critical moment to carry the damage and replace the death...... But Salvatore certainly wouldn't do that either.

He has learned more and more about the personality of this stupid person.

This is a real stupidity.

He is clearly different from Annan.

If Annan does a good deed, it is only because he does something without hesitation or regret based on morality, common sense and his own judgment, and the result of this matter is evaluated as good.

Salvatore, like Annan, does not care about the ordinary criteria of justice and evil, right and wrong. This may be the reason why the two of them were able to become friends so quickly.

But what is most different from Annan is that he has a very strong sense of compassion and an autistic mind that does not want to trouble others.

As long as he sees that others are really in trouble, it is difficult for him to leave alone. Salvatore is the kind of person who, when a beggar asks for money, even though he knows that the money will not go to the street children at all, but will be confiscated from the gang members who control their begging...... The kind of person who will also give money to the other party.

But he won't give much, just to meet the day's begging task. He's not going to eradicate that gang either, because he doesn't know if he's going to mess things up.

This is because of Salvatore's inferiority complex.

He always thought he lacked talent, so he never fantasized that he would be a hero or that he could save others...... So he doesn't meddle in his business, and he doesn't do things that he thinks he can't do. will only do what he can to save the people he sees.

This is because he simply does not want to see other people suffering for his own reasons.

I can't bear to see his death when I see his life, and I can't bear to eat his flesh when I hear his voice.

As for what he thinks of those who are saved because of him, and how he is considered by those who are not saved...... That didn't matter much to Salvatore.

— but the shadows are different.

Shadow, as opposed to Salvatore, is an extremely selfish personality.

She doesn't take the initiative to hurt others, because it's pointless - what Salvatore has always pursued is "meaningless, palliative, not curative". But this "meaninglessness" has become meaningful in front of the shadow.

Because of this, she can only pursue the evil of "meaningful".

Apparently, Salvatore was not aware of his true talent.

Or rather...... So far, he has not realized that the state and personality of the shadow will change at any time according to his state.

Because that's just his "reflection".

Based on the limitation of "what she does must have meaning", she can only take the initiative to use others to achieve her own goals-

Efficient, selfish, confident, and trusting no one.

…… It's like a lone wolf playing high.

Annan believes that she will be able to use the "Longjing Tea", a player with an immortal body, at a critical moment.

This is the tacit understanding between Annan and the shadow.

Even if there is one person between the two, even if the two do not have a direct conversation, they can pass messages to each other.

Yes, Longjing Tea is indeed Annan's "mobile true eye" to break into Zedi Black Tower, and it can be regarded as a "spy" who copied the Wizard Tower's library.

But at the same time, he was also a talisman and warning device that Annan gave Salvatore to save his life.

If something happens to Annan, Longjing Tea will indeed find a way to notify him......

But Salvatore never thought about what if something happened to him?

At that point, Shadow will definitely make the right choice.

Whether it's to let Longjing tea stall for time...... Or let Longjing Tea ask Annan for help.

"Then I'll go, Annan."

With the help of Annan and the players, Salvatore quickly packed his bags.

"Don't you have to carry the Philosopher's Stone, there's still one left."

Annan asked, "You made it yourself—evidence that you made the Philosopher's Stone out of bronze." ”

"It's just a half-finished product. It's not a philosopher's stone yet......"

Salvatore smiled bitterly: "And if I take it back, I'm afraid they won't believe it easily." ”

"How can you not believe it?"

Annan raised his eyebrows: "If you do it again in front of them, won't you be able to prove everything?" ”

Salvatore shook his head again and again when he heard this: "Forget it, it doesn't make any sense." And I really don't have the confidence to replicate it perfectly...... I can do it this time, too...... External forces were used. It's all my luck, there's no need to waste materials. ”

When he spoke of "external forces", his tone was vague.

But Annan still knew what he meant.

These three philosopher's stones are all the products of the transformation of shadows.

After all, the material of the Philosopher's Stone is the bone marrow of a wizard.

Whether the material comes from a bequest from a wizard of Benta, or the loot left behind by an executed dark wizard...... Every piece of material is worth a human life.

Without the confidence that he would be able to complete the Philosopher's Stone, Salvatore did not dare to use the materials at will.

That's why his previous development has been at an impasse – even though he has done his best in theory, he still feels that there might be something wrong with his formula. Hesitate to add to this material...... Until he sleepwalked.

Shadow used his body to successfully synthesize the Philosopher's Stone.

If the shadow is summoned, it is indeed possible to create the Philosopher's Stone again.

And Salvatore's self-esteem...... Or is it a responsibility, or something else, and I don't want to be recognized by others for my shadow's outstanding work.

He separates himself from the shadow, and remains jealous of the shadow.

- This shows that even though Salvatore has successfully cooperated with Shadow once after being injected with the Philosopher's Stone, he is still wary of Shadow and intends to continue to seal his Shadow.

"You should take this philosopher's stone."

Salvatore instructed Annan: "Nicholas Flamel has a high probability of the Golden Rank. After living for so long, his strength is likely to be more than just an ordinary golden rank. If he had indeed used the Philosopher's Stone to survive until now...... You have the Philosopher's Stone in your hand, whether you use it or set it closely, it may save your life at a critical moment.

"Also...... It's a little incredible, but lately I've always felt like you're about to advance again a month after becoming a transcendent...... Here's what I've summarized in the past few days, and you may be able to use the advanced path. ”

As he spoke, Salvatore handed Annan a piece of paper: "Be careful, Annan. Don't die. ”

Annan didn't look at it, so he solemnly put it away.

He nodded earnestly to Salvatore.

"I will."

“…… I'll try to finish the exam in May, and then I'll go to the royal capital to find you. Goodbye, Annan. ”

"See you in May, then, Salvatore."

Annan replied softly.

Looking at Salvatore and Longjing Tea in the distance, Annan sighed lightly.

Prepare for a while, and then get ready for Advanced Silver.

Nightmare: The gallery is running out of uses, and players are almost running out of mechanics by the time they open up their party.

When the time comes, you will have to leave at least one "gallery" for advanced silver.

After all, this copy Annan is very familiar with, and the various operations used to complete advanced tasks are also very good.

The newbie dungeon is almost clean for players.

Then it's almost time......

It's time to let the players out.
