The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 911

[Chapter 433 The test of the heart]

I’m afraid it’s because Nicholas II’s purpose was not just to “enter the Valley of the Blood Butterflies”.

Instead, go to the Blood Butterfly Valley “with enough test items”.

Destroying this nameless village is just to obtain materials.

If attacking human gathering places in the outside world – unless it is underground, it is almost impossible to obtain so many “materials”.

Before he started experimenting, it was bound to be discovered.

This nameless village itself is on the edge of civilization.

Even if the entire village is destroyed, it will not be discovered within two or three days; and even if it is discovered, it will not necessarily be reported by the person who discovered it.

Annan has inspected the entire village.

Nicholas didn’t take any belongings – they were all piled up in the middle of the village, in an empty square.

So it wasn’t burnt either.

Anyone who enters the village can see this pile of property.

As long as they take any of them… they don’t necessarily dare to report the news, otherwise they themselves will be regarded as “suspects”.

Therefore, after they took these treasures, they might artificially help Nicholas II to cover up the traces and disguise the traces of the villagers leaving.

The people who would have come here were either businessmen or adventurers.

They probably won’t turn a blind eye to this wealth.

And the other way around.

Even if they do turn a blind eye to them – will the people who come to investigate turn a blind eye?

The village is not poor.

They monopolize the magical material of the whole mountain, and there are many wild beasts to hunt.

This is not a hunting area… They can even be called wealthy, and all the wealth gathered together is enough to make the little nobles who can act as “guarantors” tempted, let alone enforcers.

On the other hand –

how can they prove that they did not take part of the property?

How can they prove that they do not know the perpetrators of the “robbers”?

Even the enforcers may be shaken by the lure of this treasure.

Will want to silence the reporter here… ——After

all, as “agents”, what they lack is money.

As long as they have enough money, they can get rid of the identity of the agent, become their own guarantor, and become a superior person.

What’s more, this is a windfall that is enough to change the fate of the entire family.

Moreover, this is in the deep mountains, and no one will see it.

And no one cared about the villagers – they were probably all dead and kidnapped.

Rather, it would be better if he died.

This is “extreme wealth”.

There are even “Nata County people” who can be used to carry the pot not far away.

Annan must admit that although Nicholas II is only a thought body, his control of people’s hearts… is indeed accurate enough.

The things that are at your fingertips, the things that are clearly placed on the ground… It seems to be a “gift” that the witnesses who “use it to seal and help me finish” are clearly telling him.

At that moment, the desire to get rich overnight, the desire to change fate, will be soaring.

At the same time, the mentality of being too troublesome will also occupy a high ground.

No one wants troubles that have nothing to do with them to affect them.

I am even more afraid that others will be suspicious of myself if they know about this.

Afraid of gossip, but also afraid of causing trouble.

I am afraid that I have not done anything, but I have to bear the blame –

if the “leak poet” who always claimed to be Annan’s partner came to leak the secret immediately, I am afraid that when they learned about this, it would have been Several months later.

“…I know.”

Annan looked ahead and muttered to himself, “His idea is correct.”

Even Annan can’t ask, other people will not be moved when they see this wealth on the ground.

It is indeed a money that is not so safe to hold, but it is neither stealing nor robbing.

Just need to “keep silent”.

As long as you don’t do anything, turn back and leave with the money… You can get money that you can’t earn in ten lifetimes, and you can become a superior person overnight.

You can also avoid yourself and your family from falling into a vortex of trouble and disaster.

Who can resist such temptation?

Annan can indeed.

He said he wouldn’t take it if he didn’t take it.

But Annan also knew that he could not ask others to do the same – that was moral kidnapping.

Not to mention, they had no idea what Nicholas was doing and what the consequences would be if his research was successful.

Those who do not know are innocent.

From this point of view, Nicholas II has won half the game.

He broke the seal of this ceremony and set up this “scene”, which is normally enough to delay for several months.

At that time, perhaps Annan and the others were still investigating the traces that were manually erased by those behind.

Wasting precious time amidst waves of gigantic lies that messed with each other—until Nicholas was done researching.

But the faceless poet broke the first time stamp of this lie.

He gave Annan an opportunity to “mantis catching cicadas”.

If Annan guessed correctly, the Faceless Poet would have wanted to see himself abandoning the children who had lost their homes and all their families, waiting for Nicholas to study the results.

I’m afraid he has already thought about his cold-blooded words, or yin and yang words like “As expected of you”.

But Annan chose another path.

This is not against the faceless poet.

If Annan guessed correctly…

The “partners”, “accomplices” and “colleagues” of the faceless poet were not himself from the very beginning… but the “Black Annan” of the first week.

“I’m really disappointed.”

Annan murmured in a low voice, took a deep breath and walked forward.

“Your Majesty, where are you going?!”

Jacob, who was standing behind Annan and staring at the treasures, suddenly raised his head in shock and looked at Annan who was walking alone to the Blood Butterfly Valley: “You don’t want to Waiting for reinforcements?”

“They are already coming.”

Annan replied: “They are a little slower than us – because they teleported to Natta County first. But they are already on their way, and the fastest should be in You

‘ll be here in three minutes.”

“Then, Your Majesty, wait here for a few more minutes…”

“—I’m going to save people first.”

Annan said, glancing at the mountains of treasure: “And these Things, should be considered the property of those children.

“If they die, then naturally it can be regarded as the reward for us avengers.

But if they’re not dead, these things still have owners.

“You can take some, and they can also let them take some when they arrive. But in the end, it can only be taken with the consent of these children. When the number of them is a little larger…you can follow them with them.”

Annan calmly Looking at Jacob: “You can find my footprint, right?”

After looking at Annan for a while, Jacob lowered his head in shame.

“…Yes, Your Majesty. I can…”

he realized.

This is because Annan noticed his greed, but he didn’t want to be with him… So he chose a way of “turning a blind eye” and left quietly.

I’m afraid those reinforcements are also greedy for these treasures.

Annan didn’t want to stop them, nor did he want them to “dare” to touch these treasures because of Annan’s face and authority… He knew people’s greed, admitted this desire, but was unwilling to join it.

aware of this fact.

However, Jacob realized that… the fire of greed in his heart seemed to be mostly suppressed by guilt.

“—I will definitely catch up.”

Jacob raised his head again and said firmly.

The corner of Annan’s mouth rose slightly.

He knew Jacob was a smart man.

He already knew what he was going to do when he left at this time.

Just to save face for him and those players.

Don’t point it out, don’t expose it – like a parent who is aware of their child’s self-blame.

“Then I’ll be in charge. UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com saves the children.”

Annan said, then turned around.

He walked quickly to the Blood Butterfly Valley and waved to Jacob behind him.

It’s just that Jacob doesn’t know…

other than that.

Annan also wanted to talk privately with Nicholas II before the players arrived.

Some things that are unnecessary for players to know and add to their psychological burden.

Players, as righteous heroes, only need to defeat the Demon King.

As for who the Demon King used to be and what the Demon King wanted to do, there is no need to understand, let alone discuss.

For example…

Annan wanted to know why Nicholas II suddenly did such a thing.

At first, Annan thought he was a harmless and easy-going person.

What is he trying to do?

As Annan approached the Blood Butterfly Valley, he felt his left shoulder gradually heat up.

The “infinity” symbol on his shoulder and the depths of his pupils began to light up.

He even felt that his heart was gradually getting hotter.

Annan wanted to question the other party from the bottom of his heart.

——He wants to sanction something, judge something.

Not for the sake of righteousness…and possibly, just for myself.
