The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 251: I will take action myself

"...ritualist?"

Annan frowned slightly and his expression became serious.

He did not ask Citalopram "Did you really hear this name?" or "Are you sure?" or other useless questions - if there really was an old ritual master there, Citalopram would be alive. Coming back is not easy.

The Road of Ritual... This is another way for this world system to obtain extraordinary power.

There is no doubt that they are far more dangerous than the superhumans.

There is always only one end point on the path to transcendence - to master the truth and sublimate and grow as a living person.

But in this world, there are always some people who are nostalgic for the human world, addicted to the luxurious life and the benefits that are visible to the naked eye and within reach, but do not hope for the distant eternal life, truth and authority.

For them, extraordinary power is just a useful tool to gain glory and wealth.

Since it is a tool...it is natural to consider cost-effectiveness.

The iron rule of this world is that if you want to gain power, you must endure the corresponding curse.

But if you only rent it for a short period of time, you can pay a lot less.

——Yes.

Ritualists are not like extraordinary beings who choose to sublimate their souls and improve their life levels. They will not even step into the path of transcendence at all... In this case, the gray mist cannot stop their actions.

They just use mysterious knowledge to satisfy their endless desires.

Use those unspeakable secrets about the true names of the gods, their rituals and the secret relationships between them to "rent" extraordinary power through rituals.

During the entire process, the curse will not flow into their bodies; the effects of the ritual can be used as raw materials for other rituals.

Therefore, they will not become short-lived or long-lived; they will not fall into nightmares, nor will they have the desire for mutation. They even understood how to use the influence of the gods to eliminate the contamination of their own souls...and how to contaminate the sanity of others and drive them insane without even realizing it.

They are just mortals, but they hold incomparable power in their hands - power that is completely uncontrollable.

Extraordinary people fully understand the price they must pay to obtain power, and they know that those with insufficient abilities are not allowed to touch the taboos of stronger curses.

After the soul is sublimated, the extraordinary person often has room for failure in the ritual...but the ritualist does not.

The power they control is far higher than their own level.

This makes them fearless.

For them, the difference between failed rituals at different levels is like "explosives that are close at hand that can destroy a building" and "explosives that are close at hand that can destroy a city."

As long as you lose control, you will die anyway, there is no difference.

The only difference is how much trouble the remaining aftermath of the ritual will bring to others after one's own death.

It is impossible for people who take this path to care about these things.

Because if you want to become a ritual master, you must first have the awareness to pay any price and take advantage of anyone--and there is often the possibility of offending the righteous god.

The ritualist has no respect for power at all.

Therefore, all ritual masters are naturally wanted criminals.

Even if they have not committed any crime, they must always be monitored, arrested and even assassinated silently. Because everyone knows that once the ritual gets out of control, the ritual master has no ability to eliminate or suppress the ritual.

It is different from the transcendent beings with distinct levels.

No one knows how much mysterious knowledge is stored in a ritualist's mind - because they have no way of knowing when they became a ritualist and when they started collecting mysterious knowledge.

Maybe when I was very young, I read the forbidden books collected by my parents; maybe when I was young, I got the secret book recording a certain ritual from the belongings of the deceased old ritual master; maybe even in middle age , when I was old, I was lucky enough to touch this world.

Contrary to the official attitude...the so-called barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, the False God Church, which has no fixed abode and wanders around, will not be afraid of the danger of ritualists.

They often hire ritualists to help them perform rituals.

Different from the extraordinary road and the ritual road...the road of faith is the fairest road.

There is no emphasis on talent, talent and morality, and there are not so many internal and external dangers. As long as you pay, you will gain, as long as you work, you will be rewarded.

But the price is loyalty.

It is not a mortal loyalty to the monarch, it is just a three-sentence promise that all gods have in common.

For example, the priests of Silver Siren swear this when they join the association:

"I swear to never destroy and try my best to continue the symbol of Silver Siren - the silver coin;"

"I swear to try my best to follow the path of trade and walk on the road that Yin Jue has walked;"

"I swear never to betray or get close to other Eternals."

——That’s all.

The first two are just "try your best", but only the third is mandatory: you can use your own original rituals, you can use the rituals of the gods you believe in or the gods you follow (if it is a true god), but only Du cannot use rituals left by other gods.

As for why this is, Annan still doesn’t know yet.

After all, this is not too harsh...and this is not a requirement for "believers", but a requirement for "priests".

It is roughly equivalent to a non-competition agreement.

If there really is a ritual master in Fort Ross, Annan's previous plan will be completely overturned.

Because this means that there may be no followers of Rofu in Roseburg... The previous "ritual: your heart will ring without being touched" and those summoned objects may even be summoned by the same person.

And he was just employed by the rotten man.

Then the corrupt forces in Fort Ross may not be as big as Annan imagined - they may even have all evacuated. ~IndoMTL.com~Things are starting to get complicated..."

This is no longer just a novice trial for Si An Ke and Citalopram.

It is even related to the safety of the entire Roseburg, the survival of the Geraint family in the royal capital, and even the change of throne of the Kingdom of Noah——

"I'd like you to run an errand again...go call Jiu'er back first. Then notify Si Anqi that the trap can be set. Once the trap is set, retreat directly and use the trap to delay their departure."

Annan narrowed his eyes slightly: "I'll go back to get some things, you guys just wait for me here... I'll try to come back within forty minutes. If they leave, you and Si An Ke should at least be adorned with that ritual master ——You can ignore others.

"Your test is temporarily over, and I will make other considerations later. In order for you to follow boldly and effectively, I will first give you the ability to contact each other and resurrect."

Following Annan's words, two reminders flashed before Citalopran's eyes: resurrection and forum functions were unlocked.

Annan plans to take action personally - he wants to capture them alive.

Of course, it is also necessary to gather the players online, send out a temporary main quest, and grant temporary unlimited resurrection privileges...

If nothing else, at least it can help Annan share the firepower.

And these two new players with stealth assassination capabilities...maybe be a surprise to Annan.
