Chapter 230 Nightmare: Reflection
When the skeleton was sent away, Annan leaned against the pillow and looked back at the moon outside the window, narrowing his eyes slightly.
Although the skeleton did not refuse his call, and did answer his questions... But the "secrets" he said very cleverly avoided those key issues - especially, may touch himself part.
For example, what kind of organization is the Necronomicon Alliance, how he and the pale princess know each other, what they plan to do, and why they are scattered now...
These questions that may touch Duke Bone himself, including the pre-existing questions that may lead to these questions, he just pretends to be stupid and doesn't mention a word.
But when He spoke about the information about Princess Pale and the Half-Dead Daughter, he said it very carefully-especially when it came to information such as "How to Identify the Half-Dead Daughter" and "Princess Pale's Personal Habits and Preferences". It's as if he deliberately left himself and the Necronomicon out of the way, and drew Annan's attention to Princess Pale.
"That's all..."
Annan shook his head lightly, leaving this matter aside for the time being.
This scumbag has already made him a little used to it.
If he directly involved himself this time, Annan would have wondered if he wanted to do something.
However, Duke Bone also revealed some secrets about Princess Pale to Annan...
The head that Princess Pale held in her arms was not her lover, but her followers.
Yes, while Princess Pale's priests are all half-dead daughters, her followers have no such restrictions.
After all, He has an extraordinary beauty and an extremely beautiful singing voice, and many believers are obsessed with wanting to follow Him, whether male or female...
What she was looking for was truly "an interesting soul". It has nothing to do with wealth, appearance, age, gender...even race.
The highest ritual that Pale Princess believers can perform is to sacrifice their heads to Him. If Princess Pale thinks this is someone with enough interesting thoughts, He will accept it, and keep the head of this person by his side, whispering with his-or her soul day and night, singing for his lover, and kissing his lover.
—until she meets another, more interesting soul, or tires of this one's soul.
But she will not abandon these souls,
Rather, he will pull it out and take it with him.
Over time, a phenomenon called "Pale Tide" occurs wherever the Pale Princess walks. That is, at night, along with the strange singing, a white smoke will suddenly roll up in the sky, passing slowly from mid-air like a gust of wind.
There are some legends in the folk... If you are unfortunate to see the pale tide, you will be seriously ill afterwards.
The statement of the skeleton man, which confirms this legend.
As long as it is exposed to the light of those ghosts, it will slowly absorb its vitality. For ordinary people, the suddenly drained vitality is enough to make people sick, but because they see the tide of paleness, they will immediately hide, but there is nothing to do; but for extraordinary people, this vitality will not Too much damage for them...and maybe even get some erosion for it.
Those superhumans who are on the verge of madness will even take the initiative to look for traces of the pale princess and ride the tide.
And if you indulge in the pleasure of the soul being gradually purified, you may lose your strength and fall on the road... Eventually you will become corpses lying under the pale tide, adding a fire to the continuation of this legend. .
besides.
Annan also got another very important information——
Pale Princess, there is another alias.
- Throat of Death.
The singer who brings death.
yes.
The "influence of the throat of death" on Annan came from Princess Pale.
"...Alright."
I didn't ask in vain, at least I knocked out some bone marrow...
Annan sent the skeleton away politely for the time being.
However, the pale princess...
Annan was lost in thought.
I don't know what kind of nightmare he will enter.
"...Forget it, go to sleep."
Annan finally closed his eyes and fell backwards.
As he fell asleep quickly, Annan felt that his body seemed to become a little light.
He seemed to be floating in the clouds, and there was a strange singing looming in his ears. But listening to the song, Annan felt that his limbs were getting colder and colder...
It's like being immersed in ice water, the cold and clear feeling, but you can't wake up completely.
When he was entangled in this nightmare and was awake, Annan's consciousness suddenly woke up and saw a few lines of prompts appear in front of him:
["Primary Influence: Remnants of the Mouth of Death" has reverberated]
【Entering the dream world】
【Dream key not detected】
[Searching for nightmares, the keyword is "dead"...]
【Nightmare found】
[Falling into a nightmare, the copy is being generated...]
[Dungeon difficulty is difficult]
[The total erosion of the squad is 2%, the difficulty of the copy increases by 2%, and the probability of nightmare distortion increases by 2%]
[Warning: Relevant elements detected, the nightmare has been distorted——]
[This dungeon has no save points, each death increases the erosion degree by 12%, and the dungeon is forced to quit after 1 death]
[This copy provides the introduction of the plot, with decryption rewards]
[Dungeon Clearance Reward: Occupation (Wizard) increased by 3 levels]
【Loading completed】
When Annan woke up again, he noticed that his body was shaking.
Not out of fear...but out of humidity and cold.
Annan realized that he was curled up in a damp dungeon.
The left hand was locked by shackles, and the other end of the chain was fixed to the wall. There were some obvious scars on the wrist of the left hand, which seemed to have just started to inflame... It should be left when I broke free from the chain not long ago.
And his right hand was intact.
In this position, he can only sit or kneel at most, and he can't lie down at all... I'm afraid he can't fall asleep because of this.
Annan didn't know how long it had been since this body slept normally. He could only feel a strong sense of exhaustion.
Strangely, other than that, there was no trace of torture on him.
Even health is as high as 94%.
This means that he basically has no wounds... even eating and drinking, he has never been hungry.
"……Well?"
When Annan checked the injury, he noticed that it should be a female body.
Judging from her skin, knuckles and palms, her age should be no more than thirty years old at most, and she should still be very young. Moreover, there are no calluses on her palm, the skin on the back of her right hand is relatively smooth, and she is not a peasant woman.
Annan lowered his head and checked his clothes with his right hand in the extremely dim light.
Somewhat surprisingly, her clothes were quite neat and not messy at all. It doesn't look like a prisoner's uniform...but the fabric isn't the kind of high-end fabric that nobles would use.
Working in paperwork or entertainment? Or is it simply not working yet?
The person who tortured her here and prevented her from sleeping peacefully did not torture her. That person's purpose... what is it?
At this moment, Annan felt a familiar slight dizziness, and new words appeared in front of his eyes again:
[Evelyn Miller was supposed to be a natural dancer. She was born with a soft and powerful body, extraordinary beauty, and a heart that is extremely sensitive to art and music. She should be the one loved by Javon. 】
[But when she was fourteen years old, she lost almost everything because of an unfortunate accident. Her path was thus completely terminated. 】
[Since then, she has never danced in front of people. 】
[Until one day, she accidentally saw the dance of "Dancer under the Moon"... The dance that grabbed her soul made her unforgettable. 】
[She tried to talk to him, but suddenly lost consciousness the moment she spoke]
[When she wakes up, she finds herself in a damp and cold dungeon]
[She realizes that she may have been kidnapped]
After these traces faded, new words appeared in front of Annan's eyes again:
[Main quest: Go home]
Immediately, a large piece of small characters quickly appeared below this line of words:
【Keep your body intact】
【Don't talk to anyone】
【Back to reality】
