Chapter 278 Fighting Ritual with Ritual
The directionality of this nightmare is very clear.
Annan needs to find a way to cancel the ritual, not continue it. Then it means that this nightmare did not come from Philip's camp... or rather, the extraordinary people of the Roof camp.
Other than that, there are only two camps.
That is, the official forces of the two countries headed by Dmitry and Elizabeth.
In the original history, Annan must not have the buff from the immunization ritual added to him by the old Vasily. In other words, this ceremony was under the circumstance that everyone was monitored by the ceremony... but it was still destroyed.
As we all know, Ferdinand did not die at this moment, nor was he wanted or exiled.
Then the one or the few leading stones that were destroyed in the original history must not belong to Ferdinand.
Who can detect a problem with a ritual and disrupt it without causing anyone to be alarmed?
He must be a very observant man. And his whereabouts will not arouse the vigilance of others...
Only one person can do it.
It was old Merlin.
— Merlin Manning.
He is a lame and a mute-at least in the eyes of outsiders, he is a mute. As the most reliable protector, he will inevitably follow Annan forward... Because only Merlin will know that at this time Annan's " value" has trumped Dmitry.
As a protector, he wouldn't look suspicious wherever he appeared...as long as Annan wasn't far away.
His younger brother, Vasily, is a ritualist himself; as an elite of the Hand of Winter, one of his tasks is to arrest illegal ritualists-how could he not know the knowledge of rituals?
If it is said that there is a person who is related to Annan, who can see through and destroy the ritual in a short period of time, whose actions will not arouse the vigilance of others, who hopes to destroy the ritual... and most importantly, hope that "Annan Winter", "Demeter" Lee Winter", "Elizabeth Noah", and "Kaffine Noah" were able to survive.
Then the answer is self-evident-
This could only be a nightmare born of Merlin Manning who died in Michelangelo's ritual!
"...But he's just a silver-level superhuman, can he give birth to a distortion-level nightmare?"
Such doubts appeared in Annan's mind for a moment.
This is the only thing Annan can't explain.
Merlin...is he that strong?
Generally speaking, only the death of an extraordinary person above gold can give birth to a distortion-level nightmare, right?
However, even if this part is ignored, the information Annan has obtained is enough.
If you want to use the third method to attack the nightmare, you must get Merlin's support...
The second would provoke the wrath and scheme of the "tragedy writer". So is there a way to unravel this ritual under the condition that He is satisfied?
--existing.
The tragic writer is the god of murder and conspiracy...but he is not the patron of murderers and conspirators, but their "accomplice" and "secret".
He is tight-lipped about all murders and conspiracies,
And very much like "Perfect Crime". The "perfect crime in plain sight" itself is one of the tragic writers' favorite rituals.
--yes.
Annan decided to make a sacrifice to the "tragedy writer".
He is going to murder the criminal who intends to murder others, steal power, and cause war, in full view!
The third prince, Philip Noah.
Negating sacrifice with sacrifice, covering ritual with ritual, preventing murder with murder.
- Covering up another explosion with an explosion.
Presumably the "tragic writer" will not only not stop, but will be very excited...
But if Annan intends to do so, he will have to get Merlin's cooperation. Because during the whole process, Annan could not reveal his identity.
He couldn't arouse suspicion either—he couldn't make people think that the murderer was Winter, especially not Merlin.
"So be prepared with both hands."
If all goes well, murder Philip Noah just before the "opening". Otherwise, just use the first method and pass the customs first - this kind of difficulty nightmare, there must be no hesitation for a moment.
It's like if a teammate hangs on a tree and can't be saved, and the door has opened again, then they must still be able to run or run...
The point is, the murderer must be Annan. In other words, it must be Annan in the form of "David".
Because when Annan enters the "David" state, not only his appearance will change...his name will also temporarily become "Ghirlandaio David Buonaro", and he can unconditionally deflect gold "Prophet", "Idol" school spells below rank.
This allows "David" to bear this crime. No matter how to investigate with magic, it can only be investigated that a person named "Ghirlandaio David Buonaro" killed the person.
But as we all know, there is no such person in this world - this is the name Annan gave to the last statue in Michelangelo's life.
"I will heal you."
Looking at Ken Carter who was a little uneasy, Annan nodded and said in a deep voice.
Saying that, he did not withdraw the gun in his left hand, but just held the rapier in his right hand to his mouth, and took out the last silver coin in his pocket.
He wiped the gunshot wound on Ken's thigh with a silver coin - the wound was wiped off by Annan as if it had been erased with an eraser.
Ken's expression also improved significantly.
He thanked in a low voice, "Thank you very much, Father.
"I won't attack you, and I won't reveal your identity... If you don't worry about me, you can lock the basement. I'm not going anywhere."
"That's the best way to go."
Annan nodded gently and raised his sword again.
There was a slight flash in the depths of his pupils.
In his mind, a picture suddenly appeared:
Ken Carter sat in the empty basement with a hesitant expression on his face. He frowned, looking down in thought.
In the end, he slowly got up from the ground. Found a few pigeons in the kitchen basement with wings removed...
The screen stopped abruptly.
--really.
Annan didn't need to read it, and he knew that he wanted to set up a ceremony to tip off the news. This is understandable, and Annan has long expected.
But Annan didn't intend to really let him go, so he didn't get frustrated by the betrayal.
He was just a little surprised:
... Could this be the "prophetic experience" of the Prophet School wizards?
This is so cool!
Annan warned casually: "By the way, Ken... you'd better stay here honestly and don't think about anything bad. If only I could live to know...
"—No matter how far, I will come back and kill you."
He said flatly.
Ken smiled and replied in a low voice, "No, no..."
"Not for the best."
Annan nodded calmly.
He turned and walked out of the basement—but in no hurry to get out.
He just walked out slowly at the door of the basement, silently aiming the muzzle at Ken's position behind him across the shelf.
Four rounds of dialogue, and a somewhat vague "death announcement" were given.
Let's see if this level of death announcement can trigger the special effects of "Miss Quiet"...
Annan pulled the trigger silently without looking across the shelf.
The extremely low recoil of the gun body shook slightly in his hands, but it failed to shake David's marble body in the slightest.
But no bullets flew out of the muzzle - the shelves were naturally not penetrated by bullets.
But Annan did feel the gun body shake.
...is it "that kind" that must be hit?
Without thinking, Annan took two steps back and walked out of the shelf.
I saw Ken had been shot, lying on the wall in pain, struggling silently and violently - blood was flowing from his heart.
"...As expected."
Annan nodded in satisfaction.
The distance from the "muzzle" to the "target" is directly erased - this level of certainty is indeed valuable. If only to the extent of automatic tracking, an activation curse can be completed.
The experiment is over.
Immediately, Annan stepped forward and raised the "sharp thing" in his right hand, intending to give this NPC a pleasure.
I saw a flash of silver light, and with the support of "David"'s powerful physical strength - Annan cut Ken's throat without hindrance.
The head flew out.
- One-shot kill.
