The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 981

[Chapter 24 The Dying Man]

The Hugo tower master finally succeeded in persuading Annan.

If he didn’t want to imprison Salvatore in the black tower, but to let him recharge and sublime into a god…

There is no reason for Annan to refuse such a good thing on behalf of Salvatore.

Although after the torch is handed over to Salvatore, he will temporarily stay in the Black Tower for a while.

But it’s not for long… It’s not a prisoner of the Black Tower, and it’s not like the other tower masters who will be locked in the wizard’s tower for the rest of their lives.

With the blessing of the holy fire, he can finally be sublimated into a god.

And such a future is not far away… At most three or four years, Salvatore, who no longer endures the debuff of “long-term insomnia”, will be able to digest the income after completing the golden rank superhuman.

With his literacy, he will definitely be able to obtain the Book of Truth.

When Salvatore sublimates into a god with the help of the power of the holy fire, he will be able to graduate from the identity of the “Lord of the Tower”.

When the time comes, Salvatore will leave another holy flame for the Zedi Black Tower, and the inheritance of the Zedi Black Tower will not be cut off.

As long as the holy fire is burning, even without the protection of the tower master, the Zedi Black Tower can function normally.

Just like Maria doesn’t need to look at the Tower of Storms all the time, as long as she can regularly absorb the amount of violent violence that the Tower of Storms cannot control, the rest of the time is very free.

Of course, the Tower of Storms is also very special among all wizard towers.

The Tower of Storms has not recruited new apprentices for a long time.

After all, strictly speaking… it is no longer a teaching institution for training wizard apprentices, but a “front line” in the confrontation of large-scale natural disasters.

The environment here is too dangerous, so that parents dare not send their children here.

The wizards who work in the Tower of Storms also don’t want to mess with the rambunctious children.

Every time a new one is accepted here, it has to go through thousands of selections.

In most cases, it is the successor of a certain wizard or tower master… So they will experience the extremely high treatment of “many tutors only teach one student” that is difficult to see in other wizard towers.

That’s why Maria grew up so fast.

As a local superhuman in this world, she also maintains the attitude of “if you can’t enter a nightmare, you won’t enter a nightmare”.

She was able to be promoted to gold at the age of 16 or 17 without gaining experience in killing people and basically not brushing nightmare copies… Part of the reason was her talent, and the other part was the super high-standard education she received.

If the concept of Storm Tower is “storm”, the concept of Howling White Tower is a “door” formed by two symmetrical white towers that are linked to each other at a high place. “Brilliant” manifested.

Then, the core concept of the Zedi Black Tower is the burning fire.

And that’s what fire is – the most fiery fire, the brightest light, not the oldest, nor the most sacred.

Just like the flames worshipped by those sacred fire platforms in the past.

Those flames are much stronger than the primordial fire guarded by the Zedi Black Tower, both in size and strength.

The primordial fire preserved in the Black Tower of Zedi is only conceptually sacred.

The flame placed on the flame platform can cover a maximum radius of 20 kilometers; but the flame stored in the Zedi Black Tower has only one tenth of the radius.

Fire is fair and not authoritative.

Only the places with the most fuel and the strongest winds have the most violent fires.

Fire is always burning and always new.

The fire after each fuel change can be said to be the previous cluster or a new fire.

— just like Salvatore.

But Annan is also a little curious…

With the character and talent of the senior, what type of book of truth will he get?

Or was it directly targeted by the unowned holy skeleton before that?

“Did you make a special trip to call me here just to let me keep Salvatore’s secret for you?”

“That’s just incidental.

The main purpose is to hope that Your Majesty Annan will not interfere.

”

The tall and thin ghost controlled by the Hugo Tower Master shrugged: “I once read such a sentence in a book, called ‘Fate is the rut of the sky’. Probably your every move will have ‘Fate’. Bonus. I don’t think I can go against fate.”

“Then what’s the truth?”

Annan ignored the answer and continued to ask.

Of course he wouldn’t believe this kind of nonsense – just like he wouldn’t believe those bigwigs who called themselves “Mengxin”.

This is probably just a humorous self-deprecation.

If the tower master thinks that he is vulnerable in the face of the so-called “fate”, most of them will not be promoted to the golden rank.

And Hugo Tower Master just chuckled in a low voice.

Seeing that Annan also had a dismissive attitude towards “Fate”, he became a lot more friendly: “Then it’s no joke, Your Majesty.

“Simply put, it’s just that I have lost my spirit.”

This is a more prosaic, but at the same time more true speech.

“If I were still young, even if I was one or two times older than you are now, I’m afraid I wouldn’t bother to explain it to others, let alone to win over allies so humbly – even in the winter. What about the Grand Duke? I’m not from Winter, and I don’t have to make money from Winter, and I don’t have any relatives and friends in the Principality of Winter.

“But it’s different now. I’m old and dying… I can see through the rest of my days. Any unexpected situation will disrupt my plans and leave me with something to do.”

Hugo’s voice was so calm that it was almost humble: “If we fight, whether we win or lose, the time I can stay in the world will be greatly shortened. I prefer to have a heart-to-heart after a pointless fight is over. Before, a dispute was settled by means of conversation.

“It’s like the conversation we’re talking about now, and it does have an effect, doesn’t it?”

“really.”

Annan nodded in agreement.

He has understood the thinking of the Hugo Tower Master – this may also be a kind of “people who are dying, their words are also good”.

Tower Hugo has about two months left to live, but that’s when he doesn’t engage in any high-profile battles and doesn’t use elemental power at all.

He is indeed a proud man.

Just as Hugo directly defeated “Isaac”, the owner of a certain generation of the jade tower, who was subdued by the spiritual monk.

Even though Isaac was the founder of the profession of modern transformation wizard, Hugo fought against him without the slightest fear.

But now, facing a grand duke who is only fifteen years old and has not yet advanced to the golden level, he is using honorifics from beginning to end.

But Annan doesn’t really think that this is Hugo’s death is approaching and his heart is weak.

It may be another greatness to be able to let go of dignity and pride in the face of the mission.

Also worthy of respect.
