Annan narrowed his eyes slightly.
Everything is connected in series.
If Annan guessed correctly, Klaus's cursed mirror was enchanted by Dr. Gerald.
The murderer who killed the real Don Juan Geraint was his captain of guards, Klaus;
But in fact, the chief guard belongs to the third prince.
Also standing in line with the third prince was the eldest son of the Geraint family... Don Juan's elder brother. The old wizard Benjamin's curse was revealed to Klaus by him.
In order to ensure that he can defeat the silver-ranked great wizard Benjamin before landing, Klaus still asked for the cursed mirror even after knowing Benjamin's curse, and used the ritual "Tongue in the Mirror" that he had learned before on the ship.
This ritual requires a cursed mirror containing a large number of curses, and it must be smaller than Klaus' head... such a mirror must be very difficult to find.
But if you don't need the amount of curses, and just a cursed mirror will do, the difficulty will be much lower.
According to Salvatore, one of the main tasks of the Transcendent and the Church is to recover cursed objects from the secular world. After all, even for ordinary people, it is not impossible to clear the nightmare. With such a huge population base, there are always the lucky ones... or the unlucky ones who clear the simpler nightmare.
After clearing the nightmare, there is a chance to get the curse item.
Charms are always magical. This is true.
But cursed objects are entwined with curses. To extraordinary people, these curses are like nourishment, but to ordinary people they are no different from poison.
Long-term coexistence with the cursed object will make the owner's body obviously weak; if the cursed object is a little stronger, it may infuse a considerable area, and even follow the owner's obsession and desire, causing simple nightmares, and the unconsciousness of the surrounding people. pull in.
Weak spells such as "combs that turn hair white", "mirrors that can't reflect faces", "gloves that are covered in blood after taking them off", are also within the scope of recycling. They are basically useless, and they are all used as sacrifices or materials for opening high-level spells or performing rituals.
That is to say, the person who the third prince helped Klaus complete the "Tongue in the Mirror" ceremony...is Dr. Gerald.
And he is now in Roseburg, and has correspondence with the Viscount's steward.
The Viscount of Roseburg was still planning to murder Annan a few days ago...
"It's connected in series..."
Annan murmured.
He was silent for a while, then asked, "What is his rank?"
"Silver, the year he defected was just silver," Salvatore said affirmatively, "It's only been four or five years, it's impossible for him to advance to gold... and the previous news can also prove this .
"Gold-rank soul-snatching wizards will get the iconic spell [Comprehensive Control]. This is a more advanced and enhanced version of [Manipulation of the Heart]. The controlled creature will be taken away silently like a marionette Will. Even if the opponent is far away from you, the spell can still be effective.
"But [Manipulating the Heart] is different... it is a halo effect, and it will take away the will of humans within his vision range under certain conditions. It is also ineffective for animals and ghosts."
Salvatore replied affirmatively: "If your guards can wake up from the other party's soul-snatching spell, it means that he must not have advanced to gold. In this way, we have a chance of winning."
"... Listening to you, you seem to be planning to fight him to the death."
Annan couldn't help laughing.
But Salvatore didn't laugh.
He just fell silent suddenly, and after a while, he said softly: "I'm sorry, Don Juan. I may not be able to help you guard the frozen water port."
"Aren't you planning to go back and advance?"
Annan frowned.
You are ahead of a big item, do you go to gank with residual blood if you don't go home and get equipment
If you were in our Zaan, you would be interacted with, boy.
Salvatore just shook his head:
"...he is a Soul Reaper, the chance to catch him is too rare.
"So it's not that I intend to go, but that I have to go. There are some things that I want to break with him. I have a curse on me, so I can't tell you too much. You just need to know that the relationship between me and him There's only one left alive—and I have to admit...he's grown up a lot faster than I have."
Speaking of this, the young wizard who always looked tired slowly opened his eyes that were always squinted due to exhaustion.
This is the first time Annan saw his pupils clearly:
Those are very gorgeous, but extremely weird eyes.
His eyes have very obvious traces of circles, the outermost circle is silver-gray, and the color gets heavier the closer to the middle. At the very center, it became a dull, pure black.
It looks... like a downward vortex, or an upward tower.
Salvatore's eyes were very firm:
"Once he enters the golden rank, I will no longer have the possibility of personally revenge.
"The soul-slayer can read minds freely in a wide range, and it is basically impossible to catch them. Moreover, he seems to have reached some kind of agreement with the Viscount Roseburg... Once he gets the protection of the nobles, or controls the Viscount, I will There is no possibility of revenge.
"Even if I also advance to gold, it is impossible for a transforming wizard to defeat a soul-reaping wizard in a one-on-one battle. Don't worry, Annan, I have put in a lot of effort for this matter, and they will never be in vain — For example, I know his spells. I also know what spells he has, I know him well.
"As long as I kill him, I can return to Frozen Water Port with peace of mind, and I don't need to go back to the Black Tower to advance. After all, this is my hometown..."
Salvatore kept talking.
But Annan suddenly interrupted him: "Okay, senior. It's ready."
He had to cut him off.
… Salvatore's lines sounded too scary.
The death fgs stood up one after another, and after finishing this series of lines, Annan suspected that he was about to die on the spot with a bang.
"I believe that your efforts so far will not be in vain."
Annan said in a deep voice, "But you said one thing wrong."
"… What?"
"You still have to help me continue to guard the Frozen Water Harbor."
Annan's face was flat, and he uttered an immature and clear voice: "You will never die here.
"Because I will walk with you."
"... You don't have to, Don Juan."
Salvatore was a little touched.
But he still rejected Annan: "You are still young. This is not your battle... let alone your hatred."
"No, this hatred is indeed related to me."
Annan said flatly.
By now, he finally understood who the enemies Don Juan faced were.
The powerful heir to the kingdom, His Royal Highness the Third Prince;
Viscount Roseburg, who controlled the heavy troops on the border by some unknown means;
A silver-rank wizard who can manipulate people's hearts, and has a high-level spell in the name of a false god in his hand;
The elder brother of Don Juan Geraint, the blade from behind who betrayed the Geraint family;
There is also a twenty-five boy.
This is indeed not only the enemy of Salvatore, but also the enemy of Annan. It can even be said that the other party did not need to kill Salvatore, but planned to murder Annan...
In fact, this is not that Annan is helping the senior to fight against the deadly enemy, but is using Salvatore to help him defeat a terrible enemy in advance.
Of course, these can not be mentioned.
After all, he is just an innocent, innocent and righteous boy.
"Also, I don't intend to go with just you and me."
Annan said slowly: "As you know, my guards are very powerful..."
Salvatore was taken aback: "You mean..."
Annan replied affirmatively:
"To fight against a strong enemy, it is natural to use all your strength."
Let all the players go with him... and give them the power of short, infinite resurrection.
The power of the so-called cutscene CG and plot killing...
Yes.
—Annan is going to drag his family and talk about it.
