The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 1231

[Chapter 255 The 2-in-1 ceremony]

Neither Longjing Tea nor Annan likes the kind of dawdling.

After Longjing Tea asked about the situation from Sir Silver, he sent the video directly to Annan.

After Annan had a showdown with the players before, Annan also “added friends” with many more active and close players.

In this way, if Annan needs to find someone, he will save a long time to find a player, and then let them call one by one to pass the message… Even if they are not online, Annan can talk to them directly.

And after getting such critical information from Longjing Tea.

Annan did not hesitate for long, and immediately made a decision.

He decided to welcome “Black Annan” back.

Because Annan himself knew very well that when he cut off his old self, he actually wanted to “reawaken his righteous heart”, not that his past self was evil.

What he really needs is to “get a new Annan”, not “to get rid of an old Annan”. The means cannot be regarded as the end.

Now that this goal has been accomplished, it is time to make yourself whole again.

But what really makes Annan unable to ignore is not that he may gradually lose his humanity, and his personality is filled with divinity.

Although Annan has always felt that he is an ordinary person, he has never felt that he is normal. From a long time ago, even when he was on earth, he was forcibly using “morality” and “rules” he made to constrain his own life. Behavior.

Otherwise, he might even become a pleasure criminal.

Annan certainly does not think that this kind of behavior has anything to do with “human nature”.

If you can achieve better results and make people all over the world happier, it doesn’t matter if you give up your humanity.

This is a simple utilitarian philosophy of pursuing “the greatest good”.

The motives and means are not considered, only the effect of the result is considered.

Just like what the elves believe in, the pursuit of “the best life” and the “best death” good way].

What really moved Annan’s heart and decided to make himself whole again was that Annan suddenly thought of a possibility.

Before because of Zhi Ji, Annan and Worm met.

The worm stole all Annan’s talents and created a “replica of Annan” as his human form.

Objectively speaking, it is impossible for Annan to defeat an enemy who is exactly the same as himself, has the same thinking mode, the same wisdom and strength, but at the same time has an extra part of the power that belongs to the “worm”.

Because any thinking of Annan is in the calculation of the other party.

They are too similar, and instead can guess what each other is going to do… In this case, whether it is resourcefulness or hard work, it doesn’t make any sense.

But if the forgotten self is brought back, the situation will be different.

In this way, Annan and Worm are half similar and half different.

Annan is back on the same level as the worm!

This may be the only chance to defeat the worm.

As for the difference between the heart of justice and the silver lord and what the players think.

Annan has absolute confidence.

This confidence comes from Annan’s understanding of himself.

Even if he holds the Heart of Winter and has survived in this world for more than ten years… but if it is Annan, he will never fall.

Even if he regains the “Black Annan” part, it will not change Annan’s current determination.

That’s a very simple, heartfelt thought.

Just like other gods…

He wants to make the world a better place and make people happy and healthy.

He wants to maintain justice, so that the good will be rewarded with good and the wicked will be rewarded with evil.

But at the same time, Annan does not intend to deprive “people of their ability to do evil” and turn the world into a utopia.

Because people also have the power of atonement and regret, as well as the ability to correct mistakes and learn from mistakes, that is people.

The only thing that made Annan hesitate was about the Three Sirens.

According to Bai Professor Chiron.

At the peak of the Elf Empire,

Even the Elf Emperor without the Heart of Winter can forcibly hold the Three Sirens by his own will.

This means that it is indeed possible for a complete personality to control the three sirens.

Annan actually felt that his willpower was not weak.

But he was unable to hold the three sirens in the form of “Dark King”… Even if the current three sirens have become “two sirens”, and the curse wrapped around them is missing one-third, it is the same. .

And Greysmith suggested a possibility:

“It’s probably because of an imbalance in your personality.”

“Out of balance?”

“Yes. Because of the influence of Heart of Winter, whether it is reversed or not, Heart of Winter makes you extreme and incomplete.

“You either can’t feel happiness, or you can’t feel fear and pain, just like the human body loses its ability to regulate balance.

“The so-called strong will is not a heart as cold and ruthless as steel, but the ability to overcome when you feel fear, and to suppress when you feel joy.”

“In other words… do I have to wait until I dig out the heart of winter and transplant the heart of justice before I can realize the two in one?”

Annan asked.

The gray carpenter shook his head: “That’s not necessary. Because what you once forgot was a complete personality… Even if he stayed in your body for a while, as long as it wasn’t too long, he wouldn’t be reversed and assimilated by you today. .And in this case, it is very simple, even without the ritual, I can put the ‘past you’ back into this body.

“But I don’t think what you really need is for two completely different personalities to exist in the same body, but for a complete fusion of them, right?”

“yes.”

Annan nodded: “If it’s just to find the past me, then it’s meaningless. Because the ‘I’ chose self-sacrifice back then, then I don’t expect to be rescued and resurrected by the future ‘me’ must have its meaning. ”

It’s as if the senior and senior have completed the fusion.

Annan also hopes to complete that level of integration with “Black Annan”.

“In that case…you need a more complete ritual.”

Graysmith thought for a moment, opened a secret door, and entered a secret room.

Annan politely waited outside and did not follow.

It seems that after a series of complicated authentication, Graysmith took out a book from it.

It was a thin, withered, yellow book whose pages felt like moth wings covered in dust.

“This is……”

“Egg of Dream Congealing. Its full name is “Egg of Dream Congealing: Never Falling Sun, a puzzle-solving type of otherworldly nightmare,” Graysmith sighed, “Trisino once hoped to use it to complete the sublimation ritual. , Take the sky train and enter the Hall of Merka Baha to kill me completely.

“And you killed him… Or, the act of dissolving did indeed save me. At the same time, it also prevented Trisino from using this Dream Congealing Egg, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Complete the Ascension Ritual.

“That’s just enough to keep it alive and have one last chance to use it, and now I’m giving it to you.”

Graysmith said gently: “I have the memory of Trissino using this Dream Congealing Egg before, I can start the ritual, modify the content here, and distort this nightmare…

“To be precise, it is to turn the ‘past you’ into a part of this otherworld-level nightmare and the final reward. When you successfully clear the nightmare, it is equivalent to ‘digesting’ your past self and completing your personality. unity.

“But in the same way, if you die from the inside, then the past you will occupy your present body and be reborn… Although the past you and the present you have no grudges, but I think, that should not be what you want to see the end.”

“In other words,” Annan repeated, “it’s just a matter of one life, right?

“Besides that, I remember that Professor Hui’s improved sacred bone transplantation ceremony also needs to enter into a nightmare… and Zhi Ji has already helped me find the Heart of Justice.

“Otherwise, after my holy skeleton arrives, we will combine the two rituals? Will this affect the effect of the ritual?”

“No. It doesn’t matter, because these two rituals belong to my domain. Rather, if you can purify the nightmare successfully, it may be smoother.”

The gray carpenter thought for a moment and emphasized: “But the premise is that you can survive from the nightmare. Otherwise, if it is the past you who came out, I do not guarantee that the heart of justice will recognize him.

“Furthermore, I can’t tell you the plot here, or it will destroy the ceremony.”

“Ah, it’s all details. It doesn’t matter.”

Annan smiled and said, “It’s just a nightmare to solve puzzles… I’m the best at this.”
