The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 118: The unfortunate will die in the furnace of misfortune
Three times?
Anan was stunned for a moment.
Even if both sides are true, that means dying twice... Where does the third time come from?
Still...
Annan gradually reacted.
Multiplayer cooperative games such as Break Up Kitchen, Moving House, Super Bunnyman, Battle Brick Theater, and Adventure are all multiplayer cooperative puzzle games with relatively fair conditions for both parties.
In other words, the difficulties and puzzles they face are the same. Anyone can solve it.
But in fact, in all cooperative games, the puzzles and difficulties faced by both parties are not necessarily the same or symmetrical.
There are also some cooperative games in which the puzzles and difficulties faced by both parties are not the same, but each faces different difficulties, such as Forest Ice and Fire Man, Twin Legend, Bomb Disposal Simulator, Tick Tick and Escape.
For example, Forest Ice and Fire, Twin Legends and Escape, at least they are still on the same screen... Of course, because the difficulties encountered in Escape are almost synchronized, even in split-screen mode, it may not work. There is no way to be distracted and pay attention to the situation on the other side.
As for "Bomb Disposal Simulator" and "Tick Tock", as well as the famous offline simulator "WeWereHereToo", they all need to obtain intelligence and help through the other party's narrative and interaction-any one of them The gaming experience is strictly speaking only half of that of this game.
Let's name this nightmare "phantom heat".
If this "Nightmare: Phantom Heat" is also a "two-player cooperative game" in this mode, then the two people playing Frederick and Justus... it is entirely possible that the levels they face are not at all Same!
For example, Frederick only has two paragraphs: "past" and "future". But there is a third plot on Justus' side. The "other" Justus who "betrayed Frederick" should come from this third plot!
——This is probably why Nefertari woke up a little later than Annan.
Annan understood.
Unfortunately, Nefertari cannot be like a player, who can retain consciousness from dreams before he has advanced to become a transcendent. She will lose consciousness after falling into a dream. As soon as she wakes up, she will forget a large part of the nightmare experience and cannot describe the plot in the copy to Annan.
And I don’t know if it was a deliberate setting by “Bone Healer” Seti... This nightmare is the type that will not improve the level.
This means that even if Nefertari clears the level a few more times, he will not advance into a transcendent.
Annan recalled the words "Professor Gray" said when he saw through his identity, and his heart suddenly shuddered.
...Is this also included in your calculations?
Annan narrowed his eyes slightly and fell into thought.
If Annan guessed correctly.
"Bone Healer" Seti, the former "Grey Professor" of the Gray Tower.
His true identity... is probably that [Trissino].
That is, the Pope mentioned in the introductory plot of "Future Segment", the **** of murder and conspiracy "The Tragedian".
In the introduction to the plot, it is mentioned that Justus, the "Immortal Shield", accepted a contract from Pope Trissino, asking him to bring an idol wizard to the Cinder Barrens. Let him feel the "gap between dreams".
According to their relationship.
As long as Justus said he needed Frederick's help, Frederick might not help him.
But Justice still didn’t say anything to Frederick until the end.
The amount of information here is huge.
——It’s still a secret group.
Annan said heartily.
On the other hand, as long as you learn Justus' secret. All mysteries are solved.
Who is Trissino to make Justus be so obedient?
From the plot of "Youth", we can see that Justus admires Professor Gray very much. Moreover, the magic wine he drank was the wine used by Gray Professor Seti to seal the holy relics.
Just in time.
Annan not only knows the properties of wine soaked in holy relics, he even has a bottle of [Holy Bone Extract (Justice)] himself.
Even if Justice’s bottle of dragon sleep potion lacks dragon’s blood as the main ingredient. But after all, Professor Gray is an idol wizard who can complete the "Supreme Crown". He might be able to optimize this formula.
Although this is some kind of medicine, it is not synthetic. Therefore, the Transformation School understands it better than the Idol School.
"Alfonso the Thief Saint" relied on the transformation mixture made from the extract of the Bone of Courage to obtain the qualifications to accommodate the [Skeleton of Courage].
If at that time, it has not been decided that Alfonso will use [Skeleton of Courage].
In other words... [Skeleton of Courage]'s forced adaptation technology has been perfected until Alfonso can successfully apply it.
——It should have experimental products from the previous generation.
Thinking of this, Annan felt a sudden chill in his heart.
Strung together.
Everything is connected——
"A brief moment of anger. A never-ending regret."
This is what Justus said at the beginning of the nightmare.
When you think of courage, you think of recklessness, and then of rage.
Perhaps Justice's drastic change in temperament is not really because he is completely opposite to the outside rumors - Judging from Justice's childhood state, he does not seem to be that irritable, irritable, and like-minded person. A person who takes anger out on others.
On the contrary, he is more like a standard hot-blooded male protagonist...reckless, cheerful, values friendship, and not too smart.
He would vent his anger on the cold winter, perhaps because the extract from the Bones of Courage had changed his mind.
Ingrid's death did have something to do with Winter. But it is also very reluctant - the Daughter of the Storm will choose to sacrifice herself, which means that she can no longer hold on. At that time, Ling Dong really had no better choice to succeed the Daughter of the Storm.
Even if the wise man is to blame...it's not really to blame.
Disregarding the judgments of the wise men at the time, there was indeed nothing wrong——
After all, an earthquake occurred half a day after receiving the news. If they were evacuating, there might be more casualties.
And in the short twelve-day protection period, only the Spotted Bone Forest suffered an earthquake, while the other places were safe and sound. Moreover, only the Stone Forest was destroyed because of this.
There are not even a few cracks in the houses in the city.
The total number of dead and injured may be less than ten...
Justus, who was also in the Spotted Bone Forest, had stayed in the barbecue restaurant and was not injured at all. If the person who followed Ingrid into the alley was not a frail wizard like Frederick, he might have just hugged her and ran out... Or even a normal wizard with [Fossils to Mud] or [Location] Transformation and other spells can also be used to escape smoothly.
It happens to be Frederick. It happens to be Ingrid.
The reason why Ingrid was killed was because she happened to be hiding in an alley to answer the phone, and she couldn't run out when something happened. It's even more because the buildings around her are some of the few super-tall buildings in the city.
The real responsibility of the wise men is why they did not notify the residents to stay in a relatively safe place after the earthquake occurred in the "Spotbone Forest"~IndoMTL.com~. Although this problem was solved because no earthquake occurred in the subsequent eleven days... there was indeed a problem with their handling.
——However, their conclusion has nothing to do with Ingrid.
So why did Professor Wolf choose to take revenge on the Principality of Winter?
What if... Professor Wolf is neither Justus nor Frederick?
Can Justus' self-healing ability really restore the "poisonous wine" that is the extract of the holy bones taken in large quantities?
Since this extract can change Alfonso's mind...
Why can't it change Justus' mind?
——Unless Justus's mind has already been changed by it.
Annan seriously suspects that Ingrid's death is related to "Grey Professor" Seti.
Can't he find a quieter place to send the recording?
Obviously it is such an important matter, but it is not something that can be said in just one or two sentences. But he insisted on recording so much in a noisy place... Maybe he had calculated that if Ingrid couldn't hear clearly, she would go to a closer place to answer the phone.
And he also calculated that there would be an earthquake in Spot Bone Forest.
He guessed that Ingrid would die. I also guessed that Justus would see all this but survive safely.
If he really is the pope of tragedians.
Then... maybe he can really do this kind of thing.
"Could this mean, 'Unfortunate people will die in the furnace of misfortune'?"
Annan murmured in a low voice.
And if Ingrid's death was planned by him.
Then Justus accepts this contract and goes to the Cinder Barrens.
I'm afraid it's exactly the same as what happened in Spotted Bone Forest many years ago.
