Chapter 310 The Fearless Saint
"Player Super Justice ()"
Will Dmitry and Maria be back together tomorrow?
Hearing this news, Annan was also a little surprised.
After all, the two of them were not on the same road at all. And with Maria's character, she will probably come back as soon as she finishes her work as the Daughter of the Storm.
She who can transform into a storm is enough to fly from the Tower of Storms back to Frost Whisper Province in just a few breaths.
I have to go to Dmitry specifically and come back with him. This is obviously taking care of Dmitri's footsteps and body - in fact, she directly carried Dmitri, and she could also directly wrap Dmitri in the storm like "a black wind swept away Tang Monk". return trip.
...But considering that Dmitry is not a transcendent after all, his body cannot bear this level of torture. Maria probably kept her hand.
Now that Annan has just succeeded as the Grand Duke of Winter, the two brothers and sisters get together and rehearse in advance, so as not to tear each other down when they meet Annan... This is also very understandable.
But before they came back, Annan happened to be able to deal with some other things.
——For example, Saint Alfonso who just arrived in Frostwhisper Province.
Because Alfonso's purpose was unknown, Annan asked Selicia to hide upstairs first. To prevent the two from fighting when they meet—although Annan heard from Selicia that she and Alfonso have no grudges, but just in case.
However, most of this vigilance has dissipated when he saw Alfonso, whom people scornfully called "the saint of thieves".
... The reason is also very simple.
This man-made saint who holds the holy bones of [Courage], that is, the "Fearless Saint" St. Alfonso of this generation, as soon as he saw Annan, he saluted Annan very politely and deeply.
"Your Majesty came to visit you suddenly without prior notice... It's very rude."
Alfonso's voice was unexpectedly young, a clear boyish voice that hadn't changed yet.
He has crimson hair reminiscent of rose petals, and beautiful vermilion pupils that sparkle like fire.
Facing the cold gaze of the Hands of Winter, Alfonso had a helpless smile on his face.
As soon as they met, he spread his hands and raised them, raising his shoulders as if in surrender: "I don't have any hostility, Your Majesty. Otherwise, I don't think these master wizards would have brought me here.
"From the moment I revealed my identity to them, until here. During this journey, I have not shielded or protected my thoughts... Although the soul-recapturing wizard is not a high-ranking one, he should have seen it a long time ago. Clear."
Hearing this, Annan looked at Shisanxiang calmly.
Thirteen Xiang nodded slightly with a serious expression, indicating that Alfonso was right.
... What the hell.
During Thirteen Fragrance's journey, she never thought of peeping into Alfonso's thoughts with the soul-snatching spell.
On the one hand, it is because he is currently only bronze, and his level is too low. He is afraid of being discovered by this saint, and the green-named NPC will directly turn red; use of spells.
When encountering the enemy's sudden attack, Si An Ke was able to immediately shout out [Quickly dodge] instead of scurrying around or standing still. This is the proof that he already has combat experience and spell knowledge.
Among the newly recruited players, Huskies are the ones who adapt the fastest to the different world...
This may be the instinct of spinal cord players.
"Sit down anyway, Monsieur Alfonso."
Annan nodded, clenched the scepter in his hand, and leaned forward: "You came here specially to find me... May I ask what's the matter?"
"Ah, it's not a big deal."
Alfonso picked up the milk tea that Zhuoya poured for him carelessly, drank it without hesitation, and poured himself another cup, apparently a little thirsty.
"It's mainly because there are several things piled up together. And if I write and send these few things in a letter,
Maybe there will be some changes in the meaning I want to express that I don't want to see..."
"I see."
Annan nodded: "The carrier of information will undoubtedly affect the expression of the information itself. It is entirely possible to even change the content of the information."
"I wish you could understand, Your Majesty."
Alfonso smiled happily.
He immediately took out a box and put it on the table.
"I heard from my lovely sister that you are also one of the candidates who can inherit the [Bone of Fearlessness]. Especially since your bloodline is superior and your talent is outstanding, the possibility of accommodating the Holy Skeleton will be much higher. Or That's... that's how it should have been."
"original?"
"Yes, Your Majesty... We have indeed discussed with you before, and we will go to the Bone Farm for testing at the end of June. But at that time... we didn't know your identity very well. Now that you have succeeded to the Dukedom of Winter, we Only then did I finally know, 'It turns out that Ghirlandaio is the Duke of Winter'.
"... But Your Majesty, the ceremony of inheriting the holy bones is not absolutely safe. It's fine if you didn't know it at first, but now we know that this is your fake body. We dare not let the Duke of Winter risk his life. Participate in the ceremony..."
He said, and respectfully pushed the small box on the table to Annan: "This is an apology for you, just pretend you haven't heard of the previous agreement... Naifei made this agreement with you without authorization. I didn't know your identity at the time, please forgive her."
Annan reached out and opened the box.
Inside is a row of seven test tubes—this is the extract of [Fearless Bone]. It is a dark red colloid with white flocs that can be seen with the naked eye, shining like a ruby by itself.
"Let me ask you a little bit."
Annan asked: "If I don't go... will someone go?"
"...I am afraid that only those against the winter will go."
St. Alfonso hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully: "Ms. Selicia abandoned the treasure ship 'Silver' and returned to the Duchy of Winter with you. It has been spread in the underground world...she is no longer a Gold rank, presumably it is no longer acceptable [Bone of Fearlessness]."
"Does that mean that if Vladimir the Winterbreaker can survive the ceremony...he will become the new fearless saint?"
"Is such that."
"Very well, I see..."
Annan pointedly said: "I don't blame you for this matter... Nefertari is also my friend, and she would raise this matter with me for my own good and yours.
"My original goal was to find [Heart of Justice], not [Bone of Fearlessness]. Since I can't be used now, I will naturally go back and look for Heart of Justice."
"I will bring your reply truthfully."
San Alfonso nodded seriously.
The next moment, his temperament suddenly changed.
It was as if the flames in his eyes were suddenly ignited——his whole body was suddenly filled with a strong aura of going forward.
"Next is a private matter... I have a personal question, and I hope His Majesty can answer it."
"what is the problem?"
"My sister Nefertari's boyfriend, that man named Niwusel."
Alfonso stared at Annan, and asked without fear, word by word: "Is he the person you sent to her?"
Annan was silent for a moment.
He brought the scepter in front of him and clasped it with both hands.
He gave a very positive answer: "Niusel is indeed one of us, but we haven't activated him yet... If you wish, we can never activate him again.
"I mean—if [you] wish, it has nothing to do with your teacher."
"...what can I do."
The indomitable aura on Alfonso's body immediately dissipated.
He smiled helplessly, and shrank back into the sofa: "Although I have the holy skeleton, I am just a thief who stole the power of the saint. The meaning of my existence is to prove that the power of the saint is Can be stolen'... I'm just a display stand, a mannequin."
"I know."
Annan said slowly: "I knew from the very beginning... [Bone of Fearlessness] was sold to Vladimir a long time ago, right?"
"..."
Alfonso was silent, frowning slightly.
"It's not what Nefertari said, she probably didn't think of it. This has to do with lack of IQ, but with intelligence. Because she didn't know that Vladimir has a treasure that can buy the 'Holy Skeleton'...and I Know."
Annan said slowly.
Buying the activated "Bone of Fearlessness" from Seti the Bone Healer, directly becoming a saint and gaining the power to fight against the gods... This is probably one of Vladimir's plans.
And what he used to exchange for the holy bones, with equal or even higher value, was already on the verge of coming out.
——It is the blood of the world he squeezed out by borrowing the power of the worm to destroy the world!
Take Alfonso's arrival as the final piece of the puzzle.
Annan gradually restored the truth of Vladimir's plan.
