Salvatore hesitated when he heard this.
He thought for a while, and then said to Annan:
"Then can you give me a copy, your contact information?"
... No, I want to give it too.
But this is really not...
Annan shook his head with a wry smile, and explained, "This won't work, they have a contractual relationship with me...the one you've seen before."
"The contract that can be resurrected?"
Thinking of the life-and-death one-by-one that day, Salvatore came to a sudden: "Is the one that is so far away from you effective?"
"It will work as long as I am not dead, but they are so far away from me, resurrection may consume a lot of curses. And it will be weak for a while.
"But if it's really dangerous, you can ask him to scout the way for you."
Annan reminded Salvatore: "After all, they won't really die."
... Or rather, a reminder of Salvatore's shadow.
Annan also knew very well in his heart that even if he told Salvatore that players could be resurrected, and that they could be launched at critical moments to take damage and die instead... But Salvatore would definitely not do this.
He has a better understanding of this idiot's personality.
This is a real idiot.
He is obviously different from Annan.
If Annan did good deeds, it was only because he did something without hesitation or regret based on morality, common sense and his own judgment, and the result of this matter was evaluated as good.
Salvatore, like Annan, does not care about the ordinary evaluation criteria of justice and evil, right and wrong. This may be the reason why the two of them can quickly become friends.
But the most different thing about Salvatore and Annan is that he has a very strong compassion and autistic thoughts that don't want to trouble others.
As long as he sees other people really encountering difficulties, it is difficult for him to walk away alone. Salvatore is the kind, when beggars ask him for money, even if he knows that the money will not be left in the hands of these vagrants, but will be confiscated into the hands of the gang members who control their begging... He is also the kind of person who will give the other party money.
But he will not give too much, just to meet the begging task of the day. He's not going to root out that gang either, because he doesn't know if he's going to screw things up.
This is because of Salvatore's inferiority complex.
He always thinks he lacks talent, so he never fantasizes about being a hero, or saving people... so he doesn't meddle in his own business, or do things he doesn't think he can do. I will only do what I can to save the people I see.
This is because he simply does not want to see other people suffer for his own reasons.
Seeing his life, he couldn't bear to see him die, and hearing his voice, he couldn't bear to eat his flesh.
As for how those who were saved because of him would think of him, and how those who were not saved would think of him... That didn't matter much to Salvatore.
— but shadows are different.
Contrary to Salvatore, Shadow is an extremely selfish personality.
She will not take the initiative to hurt others, because it is meaningless-what Salvatore has always pursued is "meaningless goodness that treats the symptoms but not the root cause." But this "meaningless" has become meaningful in front of the shadow.
Because of this, she can only pursue "meaningful" evil.
Apparently, Salvatore was unaware of his true talent.
In other words... He has not noticed until now that the state and character of the shadow will change according to his state at any time.
Because it was just his "reflection".
Based on the limitation of "what you do must have its meaning", she can only actively use others to achieve her own goals—
Efficient, selfish, confident, trusting no one.
...like a lone wolf playing high.
Annan believed that she would be able to make good use of "Longjing tea", an immortal player, at critical moments.
This is the tacit understanding between Annan and the shadow.
Even if there is a person between the two people, even if the two people are not talking directly, they can send messages to each other.
Yes, Longjing tea is indeed Annan's "moving real eye" that broke into the Black Tower of Zedi, and it can also be regarded as a "spy" that copied the library of the wizard's tower.
But at the same time, he is also the amulet and early warning that Annan gave Salvatore to save his life.
If something happens to Annan, Longjing Tea will indeed try to find a way to notify it...
But Salvatore never thought about it, what if something happened to him
At that time, Shadow will definitely make the right choice.
Whether it's Longjing Cha to delay time...or Longjing Cha to ask Annan for help.
"Then I'm leaving, Annan."
With the help of Annan and the players, Salvatore quickly packed his luggage.
"Don't you need to take the Philosopher's Stone, there is one left."
Annan asked: "You made this yourself—it is evidence that you made the Philosopher's Stone with bronze steps."
"It's only a half-finished product. It's not yet a Philosopher's Stone..."
Salvatore smiled wryly: "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 repeatedly when he heard the words: "Forget it, it doesn't make any sense. And I really don't have the confidence to make a perfect copy... I can do it this time, too... I used external force. It's just my luck. , there is no need to waste materials."
When he said "external force", his tone blurred a bit.
But Annan still knew what he meant.
These three Philosopher's Stones are all transformation products of shadows.
After all, the material of the Philosopher's Stone is the bone marrow of a wizard.
Whether these materials come from the bequest of the Benta wizards, or the spoils left by the executed dark wizards... Every material is equivalent to a human life.
Without the confidence to complete the Philosopher's Stone, Salvatore did not dare to use these materials at will.
This is also the reason why his previous development has been at an impasse—although he has done his best in theory, he still feels that there may be something wrong with his formula. Been hesitant to join this material...until he sleepwalks.
The 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 responsibility, or something else, he doesn't want to rely on the outstanding achievements of the shadow to be recognized by others.
He separates himself from the shadow very much, and still keeps fear of the shadow.
—This shows that even though Salvatore had successfully cooperated with the shadow once after injecting the Philosopher's Stone, he was still wary of the shadow and planned to continue to seal his own shadow.
"You should take this Philosopher's Stone."
Salvatore told Annan: "Nicholas Flamel is very likely to be of the golden rank. After living for so long, his strength is likely to be beyond the ordinary golden rank. If he is indeed using If the Philosopher's Stone is alive until now... You have the Philosopher's Stone in your hand, whether you use it or use it to get close, it may save your life at a critical moment.
"Also... Although it's a bit unbelievable, I always feel that you are about to advance to the next level one month after you become a superhuman... Here are the advanced paths that I have summarized in the past few days that you may use."
As he spoke, Salvatore handed Annan a piece of paper: "Be careful, Annan. Don't die."
Annan didn't even look at it, so he put it away solemnly.
He nodded earnestly to Salvatore.
"I will."
"...I will try my best to finish the exam in May, and then I will go to the capital to find you. Goodbye, Annan."
"See you in May then, Salvatore."
Annan responded softly.
Watching Salvatore and Longjing tea go away, Annan sighed softly.
Prepare for a while, and then prepare to advance to silver.
Nightmare: There are not many available times left in the gallery, and now the player's land reclamation team has almost finished exploring the mechanism.
At that time, at least one "gallery" must be left for advanced silver.
After all, this dungeon is very familiar to Annan, and the various operations used to complete advanced tasks are also perfect.
The novice dungeon is almost cleared up by the players.
Then it's about time...
Time to let the players out.
