The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 414: The fugitive joint overlord

Text Chapter 414: The Fugitive Joint Overlord

Under what circumstances can a person's head not belong to him?

"...This is really confusing."

Annan complained.

"That's not surprising."

Maria shook her head: "Perhaps the knowledge you are exposed to now is too 'clean'. Betting or dedicating a certain part of your body is not strange in the extraordinary realm."

"...for example, rotfu?"

Annan's expression became strange.

If you lose the bet, you have to cut your throat or something...

"So, if you lose the bet and don't admit it, you can entrust the 'Return House' to get it back for them."

Annan suddenly realized.

When he was in Fufu's nightmare before, he felt a little strange... If someone loses a bet, but is very capable of forcibly defaulting on the bill, how can he get his money back in this case?

At that time, he thought that this should be a "contract" to call Sir Silver. The ritual is enforced by Sir Silver's divine power... and there's nothing you can do if you don't make a contract.

It seems now that even if no contract was signed at the time, as long as something belongs to you and nominally belongs to someone else, it will be taken away sooner or later.

“But I don’t think Philip is someone who would make such a bet with others.”

Annan said slowly: "Even if he really made this kind of bet and lost... I think he would kill the winner directly instead of sending him away."

He knocked on the table and proposed a new idea: "We assume... that Philip's head was indeed taken away by followers of the 'Stealer'.

"So, the lower half of his body was completely necrotic due to blood loss because there was no hemostatic treatment at all? His head is still in a state of temporary preservation in a certain magical space. He has even left the royal city Noah far away.

"So he is not dead, so his soul or thoughts cannot be evoked from his corpse - don't you think there is something very inconsistent here?"

"...I understand."

Realizing what Annan wanted to say, Victor immediately blurted out: "Philip's soul is not a mortal!"

"That's right."

Annan nodded: "He is indeed a mortal, but his soul is not completely mortal - he was once a gold-level transcendent, which means that his soul has been 'dyed'. Even if he is reincarnated, , will also leave traces belonging to him."

[Dyeing] In alchemy, it is the final step in turning pure "silver" into eternal "gold". In the path of sublimation, it refers to the moment when the pure soul steps into eternity.

After completing the "dying" of the soul, you may not immediately gain incomparable power. But from now on, they can permanently purify themselves, constantly eliminate impurities in their bodies and souls, and thus achieve a great extension of their lifespan...

But at the same time, it also means "exclusion."

The soul that has completed dyeing will no longer be able to awaken the elements that it has not yet obtained - it can only become stronger, but cannot gain new possibilities.

Even if you "cut it off and train again", that is, use a certain ultimate method to reincarnate and be reborn, this aspect is still solid.

"Even if Philip has not absorbed the power of the curse at all in this life, so his soul has not even completed the 'corruption' of the bronze level, it cannot even be called as thin as smoke... But he does have a soul. And the soul has color."

Annan said with great certainty: "The human soul is evenly distributed in the brainstem and spine. If Philip's head was suddenly stolen when he was unprepared, then just check his spine , one can easily discover this dyed soul - the soul is instantly split into two halves. This is also the reason why extraordinary people with tenacious vitality will be beheaded and suffer heavy injuries."

But apparently, those who examined the body did not find Philip's soul.

This means that Philip first performed or was performed a certain ritual to concentrate all his soul into his brain before sending his head out.

"And he died in bed."

Annan asked: "What does this mean?"

"This means that there is no one in the room."

Jacob quickly replied: "Because if you are attacked while lying in bed, there will be no room to hide."

It's like when you enter a gang's land, you will be asked to sit on the sofa instead of standing aside. This is of course not because you are worried that the other person's legs will get sore after standing for a long time... but because when a person is standing, he can use his anger and force at any time.

He can move in four directions, squat and jump.

But it's different on the sofa - the only option is to "stand up" on the sofa. He couldn't move back, couldn't rush forward quickly, couldn't dodge left and right, and couldn't squat down.

The same goes for lying in bed.

Lying on the bed is even more dangerous than lying on the ground - because it means you are always at a height where the other person can easily exert force. No matter what weapon the opponent holds, it will become difficult to resist.

Based on Philip’s experience, it was impossible for him not to know this.

When talking to someone, if the other person sits down instead of sitting down, you are always in danger.

"There is another possibility."

Maria shook her head and added: "There may be someone in the room, but Philip doesn't care whether the other person will be detrimental to him.

"That's right."

Annan nodded.

"You may not know...Although Philip is not an extraordinary person, his physical fitness is also very strong after he has been taking the blood of demons for a long time."

This is the information Annan collected from the previous nightmare of the "Great Hunt".

The barrier prohibited wizards from entering, and Philip's own physical condition made it impossible for him to be killed instantly before he could even call for help.

"In addition, Philip used rituals to concentrate his soul on his head... When these pieces of information are combined, the facts become clear."

Annan said clearly: "It is not to win the throne, but to do something else - he would rather pay the price of his own life and soul ~IndoMTL.com~ to complete it.

"If someone issued a task with 'Philip's head' as the designated lost object... and could complete it without any noise, it would also allow Philip to take the initiative to shrink his soul into his head and fall into dormancy, or even Neither the murderer nor Philip's head can be found at all..."

Annan gave the final answer:

"——Then this person must be Philip himself."

It must have been something Annan said to him that touched him.

As a result, he found a "return house" himself and entrusted the other party to transport his head to a certain place.

As for whether he planned to use this head to resurrect himself, or to lift some seal, or to summon some monster, or to "connect" with whom somewhere, Annan was completely indifferent.

Unpaid debts are not so easy to escape.

Say that he will die in "a grand tragedy", but there is no way he can escape by committing suicide. Sir Silver would never turn a blind eye and watch a great-level curse fall into the hands of others.

——Philip will eventually be found.

Because when he was about to escape, the enemies he faced were no longer Kafni, Elizabeth or even Annan... but the Silver Siren, the tragedian and the cup-holder.

Even if Sir Silver suddenly disappeared, he might have followed him all the way to find him.

...But.

Annan frowned slightly.

Maybe it's an illusion.

But he also thought of a possibility.

...But that possibility, if Annan said it, would probably become inaccurate. So Annan could only pretend to be stupid and stay here...waiting for Yin Jue's return.
