Chapter 209
It was the cry of a very clear and bright baby.
What is very strange is that it did not come from a certain direction, nor was it a single sound.
Instead, it sounded in all directions, overlapping and overlapping from the void.
Like thousands of babies hanging in the air, crying at the same time. The completely unanimous cry was divided into several parts, and it sang in turns like a symphony, with a strange sense of sacredness.
The moment Lin Yiyi heard the voice, she felt a strong humming in her brain, a strange cool feeling penetrated from the top of her head and went straight to her tail vertebra.
A few lines of prompts suddenly flashed in front of her eyes:
[You listen to the Holy Voice, the erosion degree has returned to zero]
[You got a new tag "Lower-Order Effects: Echoes of Infinite Overlaps"]
[If you don't remove it in time, you will fall into a random nightmare with the keyword "mirror" after seven days (difficulty: hard). 】
And such a reminder flashed before Annan's eyes at the same time.
Even the children and liquor on the other end heard this strange echo.
It resounded throughout the city, like a sacred cry proclaiming something.
All those who heard this strange echo while awake were affected.
"—What's new here?"
"—This should be the reward book, I'm envious."
"—Why do I think it's punishment Ben..."
"—I want to beat the punishment book too! This gallery can beat it with its eyes closed now, and I'm about to vomit."
"—Then don't just brush the first three floors, you go to the fifth floor to open up wasteland?"
"—No, no, that hurts the body..."
"—One thing to say, I didn't expect this Kaizisa to be quite handsome."
"--I said one by one, isn't this the venomous body? Isn't Salvatore standing all the way?"
"——There is no need to move at all, what is the need to move blindly,
Standing and reading articles is the best mockery, do you understand? "
...reset erosion?
Unlike the players who watched the intensity of the live broadcast discussion, Lin Yiyi paid more attention to this.
Not a concern for the importance of erosion.
But what level of power does it take to just hear the sound, enough to reset one's own erosion?
Lin Yiyi murmured, "That baby..."
Is it something divine?
Only then did she realize... the players didn't even know the real purpose of this main quest and what the boss they were about to encounter was.
From Salvatore's preparation, he and Annan obviously knew.
——This must be because they did not buy intelligence!
Lin Yiyi felt some regrets in her heart.
Good feelings should not be saved.
Sure enough, everything Annan sells is useful.
At least you have to mobilize the players to empty the common pool together...
"...We are, have we succeeded?"
Salvatore muttered.
Annan just narrowed his eyes slightly: "Not yet..."
For some reason, his heart was throbbing without warning, as if he was out of breath, and his breathing became a little short. This made Annan have to start taking deep breaths to keep his mind clear.
With his own intuition and experience, Annan guessed - this may be a strong "fear".
Because Annan knows that his perception ability is very keen.
But what did he... feel?
Obviously Michelangelo has been successfully born.
And the most dangerous Soul Eater was also expelled by them.
What can a group of mortals do?
"Oh yeah."
Suddenly, Annan heard a light laughing voice: "Can you already detect me... You have grown up, Annan."
It was a very gentle voice that did not distinguish between males and females, the same gentle and patient tone of a kindergarten teacher coaxing a child.
But Annan tasted a very strong arrogance from it.
Moreover, his body began to tremble more violently.
——Suddenly, An Nan was enlightened.
It's not that he's afraid.
Rather, this body is spontaneously afraid of something...
Following a sudden enlightenment, Annan slowly turned his eyes to his side.
In the empty space that was originally empty, a person was standing at an unknown time.
His height is not very high, only about one meter seven or so.
He was dressed in a pure white loose robe that looked like a filial robe and silk pajamas, and wore a white ivory crown with five pointed horns on his head. The white gauze more than a meter long on both sides of the crown was like ears and wings, hanging down from the ears and floating behind him.
He has no hair at all, and the upper half of his face is completely obscured by a silver mask, completely invisible. Both the nose and the eyes are sealed inside, and the mask is engraved with green runes, as if something is being sealed.
The lower half of his face was exposed outside the mask, showing a mysterious smile, and his skin was fair and healthy. His feet were bare, stepping on the ground, with a strange scent of incense on his body.
Apart from this white silk robe, he does not seem to have any clothing. The whole body is not stained with any dirt, and there is not a single body hair.
His whole body reflected a silvery white brilliance, like a moonlight engraved on the ground.
Annan felt a strong sense of trembling wandering around him.
But fortunately, he had felt a stronger pressure from the skeleton man before, and his performance now is not ugly.
However, whether it is two players, or Salvatore. They were all forced to bow their heads in a strong sense of fear, not daring to look directly at His figure.
Even seeing it for the first time.
Annan also immediately realized his true identity.
"...Your Excellency Rufu."
Annan was silent for a while, but decided to say hello to him.
And the rotten man just smiled lightly on the spot, touching his chest with his right hand and doing an audience salute.
"His Royal Highness Annan."
He whispered softly: "You and I have been away for many years, but we meet here today...
"Your father, did you know you were here?"
Even for mortals, the rotten man, who is regarded as a god, also uses the honorary title.
But Annan didn't feel the slightest respect in that honorific title... That soft whisper like a lover made Annan a little creepy.
He couldn't see Roof's eyes.
I can't even see Rufu's expression...
The corners of the raised mouth, showing a kind smile—like an open bow.
Facing the silent Annan, the friendly smile on Roof's face remained unchanged.
"—His Royal Highness Annan."
Roof called out Annan's name softly again, and slowly approached Annan: "I thought you were thrown into the sea before.
"But how did you survive the Black Sea?"
He was getting closer and closer to Annan.
Annan could only stare at him in a daze, unable to answer, act, or think.
He wanted to step back, but his body wouldn't obey. Later, even "thinking" itself became blurred and slow.
There is a very strong smell of tulips in the rotten's breath.
In the fragrance of the flowers, Annan felt that his consciousness gradually evaporated and the world in front of him became blurred.
Like aromatherapy when you are extremely sleepy, an intense soothing, relaxing warm feeling emerges in the heart.
But the next moment, a cold current flowed through his heart.
Annan's whole body trembled suddenly, and he instantly woke up.
His eyes widened.
Looking around the rot, looking at the position behind the rot——
A giant duke nearly three meters tall wearing a crying golden mask. Appeared behind Roof.
"We haven't seen each other for a long time, [Artabanus]."
A low, old voice with heavy echoes sounded.
