The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 121: Anchor
Taking in so much information.
And it is completely different from the education and information I have received... It can even be said to be completely opposite.
Whether Nefertari cannot accept it and becomes confused, or is so desperate that he is hysterical because he has been deceived so far, or he simply does not believe their words - it is all understandable.
Annan and Benjamin have already made corresponding preparations.
But they didn’t expect...
Nefertari accepted it all calmly.
"...Is it really so?"
She murmured quietly.
A bright fire flashed in his eyes.
"Have you expected this?"
Annan asked with interest.
——That’s not what you said before.
Nefertari just shook his head.
"No," she looked at Annan and replied seriously, "To be precise, it was after we came out of the nightmare... From that time on, I suddenly felt a sense of violation.
"Although I didn't directly become a supernatural being because I gained power from the nightmare. But I seemed to get something from it. It greatly strengthened my intuition."
Nefertari stretched out his slender index finger of his right hand and pointed at his temple with a calm expression. He just bit his lip slightly: "Although the teacher lied to me a lot...but the talents I have developed are not the same. It's not in vain. But my mind will not become stupid because of it.
"And after I woke up, I took the potion to strengthen my thinking ability as soon as possible. Although I almost forgot all about the scene in the nightmare, I instinctively had some doubts about the teacher... I trust my own intuition.
"I must have seen something."
Nefertari said solemnly: "The fact that it can make me doubt the teacher means that it must be strongly contrary to something I know. Even if I have forgotten that thing, since This feeling remains in my heart...it is the 'trace' left by the past me and the 'clue' that leads me to doubt."
"That is the power of [understanding]."
Annan replied.
He said slowly: "This nightmare does not give people the power of curse, but it can directly give people the adaptability of the [understanding] element. In other words, it can directly make a person who does not have extraordinary talents , directly get the gold level ticket."
"I understand."
Nefertari nodded: "Not everyone can extract elements from their souls. Strong and pure desire itself is also a talent.
"This represents people's 'directivity'... This is also the result of the teacher's research. Damn it, I should have thought of it..."
Human thoughts are scattered and desires are changeable. It is ordinary people who are distracted and unable to control themselves... Exuberant desires themselves will cause them to lose control.
The ability to always solidify desires in a certain direction, and to continue moving in a certain fixed direction based on desires, is the adaptability of factors.
For example, those who are "painting demons", "harp demons", or "people who are obsessed with power", "people who will do anything for justice", the "desire" of such people is the advanced gold Qualifications.
It can indeed be formed.
But most of them cannot be cultivated artificially.
No matter how weak a mortal is, as long as someone gives them a complete strategy and a ritualist or priest stabilizes their mind, they can overcome the nightmare and become a transcendent. After that, as long as you keep feeding "nightmares with strategies", you can easily level up all the way.
At least up to the silver level, they can all be piled up through resources.
Those little wizards who study in the Wizard Tower basically just hope to become great wizards and change their lives.
But there are some people whose lives do not need to be changed by the power gained by extraordinary beings.
——Not all powerful people will become extraordinary.
It’s just that they know more than ordinary people.
They knew from the very beginning... that gold level requires talent.
Whether you have this kind of talent can be called "whether you have the talent of an extraordinary person."
For example, Annan’s brother Dmitry.
He has known for a long time that he is unlikely to have the elements to adapt. No matter how strong his desire is, he will only become a madman.
Since it is impossible to advance to the gold level, there is no possibility of sublimating into a god.
Then there is really no need to become an extraordinary person.
"Directivity...?"
Thinking of this, Annan was silent for a moment.
He and Nefertari looked at each other, and their eyes became heavy.
He finally figured it out.
"Dream Eater" Trissino, what are the "bright dreams" that he swallowed as sacrifices...
——That is the "talent of awakening elements" itself.
Those children, their original bright dreams were changed. They also became mediocre because of this... The biggest difference here may be that their original "element adaptability" was robbed by Trissino.
That is indeed an extremely precious "sacrifice".
Although children with this kind of talent have a low chance of embarking on the extraordinary path - only one in ten will choose this path, and even fewer will survive to the Silver level. At that time, those whose original intentions have not changed will have to be screened out... After all, even if Trissino doesn't take action, the "original intention" itself may change.
And if they can go through these many ups and downs, they can reach the position of dyeing. Become a true transcendent.
"In this case, the reason why Justus suddenly upgraded from a mortal to a gold level in five years has been found."
Nefertari said seriously: "It is impossible for normal people to advance so quickly——"
Hearing this, the silent plate of Longjing tea suddenly raised its head and silently glanced at the cat sitting on Annan's lap.
Annan's face did not change color, there was nothing strange about it.
"And there was almost no obstacle for him to go from the silver level to the gold level. At first, I thought it was Justus who was outstanding. Now it seems that he may be like an older brother..."
At this point, Nefertari paused.
Annan understood what she meant.
If we say that the "Saint Thief" Alfonso is a "man-made Saint".
Then Justus may be the "artificial golden level".
Annan has already seen it from the nightmare.
Lianeng Messenger is not Justus' family profession at all, nor is it a job transfer controlled by "Gray Professor". It is a profession held by Justus' childhood sweetheart "Alison", the eldest lady he married.
Justus himself also has the talent to become a transcendent, at least he cannot be looked down upon by his father-in-law. In fact, his father-in-law had even begun to prepare to find a mortal son-in-law... How could such a person be so picky about Justus? Not to mention that they were childhood sweethearts, and they were even Justus whom Alison pursued.
Alison's family even has a powerful curse passed down from generation to generation. In other words, they don't actually need a "powerful son-in-law", but an "heir".
This shows that they must have the corresponding training knowledge of extraordinary beings.
——So, here comes the problem.
Since Justus didn't go to see Professor Gray because of the vulgar reason of "not being worthy of his childhood sweetheart's family". ~IndoMTL.com~ Why does he go to Gray Tower to study?
What can he learn?
Professor Gray is not a stalker at all, nor is he a courier of the United Energy. It is even more impossible for him to have a gold-level career inheritance of Lian Neng Messenger...and Allison's family only needs a successor, and the silver-level is the best situation.
If you advance to gold, your life may be short-lived and you may not be able to leave more heirs.
Therefore, it is impossible for Alison to want Justus to advance to the gold level.
——The answer is self-evident.
What Professor Gray gave him was some kind of "power of elements" that had been hatched.
Just like the [understanding] that Annan and Nefertari gained.
It directly adds a talent to people out of thin air.
Like [understanding], Annan and Nefertari's intuitions become sharper.
The elements that Justus obtains will definitely change his behavior and thinking habits——
"Everything is right."
Annan looked at Nefertari.
Only Nefertari is special.
There are two possibilities here.
"...Or, it's because you refuse to become a transcendent. You may not have the talent for the power of 'elements'. After all, your reaction after getting [understanding] is much greater than mine, so this possibility is not considered Too low."
Annan narrowed his eyes: "But this means... your specialness was decided before you entered school.
"Then, there is a second possibility——"
"——My value is because I don't have this talent and I don't want to be an extraordinary person."
Nefertari continued.
She made a low and slightly magnetic voice: "I am an 'anchor'.
"——This is the proof that Seti, the Bone Healer, truly exists in the world."
