The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 156: A journey by boat
The complex and extremely difficult substitute replacement spell is turned into a spell that everyone can use.
This can also be regarded as a kind of black box processing of spells-the user does not need to know the complicated principles to use it smoothly.
This idea of turning spells into curses did give Annan some ideas...
"However, since it is a curse, it is possible to break it, right?"
Annan raised his head and asked Nefertari.
They are not real spellcasters after all.
If something goes wrong, there is no way to make fine adjustments - for example, the man in the mirror can of course modify the appearance and body shape of "Ghirlandaio", and can also deprive or grant more power. But Annan himself could not do this.
Because he is just a user.
"That's right."
Nefertari responded: "All substitute curses can be changed back. But the conditions must be different... This is determined by the person who transformed it into a curse."
[The last work "David"] is a curse made by the man in the mirror, so its rules are related to "mirror" and "time". That is, the cooling time is the same as the use time. This is also specially optimized for Annan's use.
The state of Dove and Chocolate can be restored by passing through the elf portal again; as for the elf leather gloves, it should be more difficult... Annan guessed that it may be necessary to chop off the hands or peel off the skin.
This basically means there is no going back.
But based on the creator's thinking - this kind of substitute spell in the third generation was originally intended to rob other people's lives. They never thought about how to change back in the first place.
"How Celicia can transform back into Solonik may be something only Professor Wolf knows."
Nefertari thought seriously: "If you need information about the Winter Defender... why don't you find Professor Wolf and Selicia together?"
"It's very suspenseful. Professor Wolf will definitely avoid me, and I can't just catch a gold-level idol wizard."
And look at the completion level of "Celicia".
Professor Wolf may have perfectly combined the abilities of the two main departments of the Idol School.
The original "Frederick" was particularly good at the law of similarity, and the "Dream Eater" was good at the law of contact. Then he is equivalent to the all-powerful wizard of the idol school, mastering the abilities of the entire school.
It might be more troublesome to catch him than to find the Winter Defying Man directly.
"If she never changes, I can't convict her."
Annan shrugged and said helplessly.
After all, Selicia is not a nobody. She is even considered a star... and has close connections with high-level officials in many countries.
After replacing the name, whether it is the edict school or the idol school...all the spells, rituals and divine arts that rely on the "true name" will also be offset accordingly.
This is also the reason why the ritual masters of the Principality of Winter have been unable to locate Solonik for so many years.
Because when Solonik is "Selicia", "Solonik" as a whole will be regarded as not existing in the world.
That is, "This user was not retrieved."
The tragedy writer can know this because it is part of a "conspiracy", and the person who carried it out is his "new pope" Wolf Professor Frederick. So He saw it with His own eyes.
But the tragedy writer is not the Twelve Righteous Gods.
Even if Annan believes his words, his words cannot be used as evidence.
But apart from these words of the tragedian, Annan has no evidence to prove that "Selicia" is "Solonik"...unless "Selicia" is changed back.
Without clear evidence, it is impossible to arrest the other party.
Although her power relies largely on the treasure ship "Silver", she is more or less a gold-level transcendent who has mastered the power of elements. It would be difficult for the Silver-ranked Hands of Winter to kidnap her silently... And if the army is dispatched, regardless of losses, the resistance from the underground city will only become more intense.
Originally Solonik was not a particularly valuable person. His value is that he is the icebreaker with the weakest counterintelligence capability.
The other members of the Icebreaker Army are all from the Hand of Winter. They came from a spy agency, let alone catching them. It would be difficult for the other Hands of Winter to find them.
Although Solonik is the leader of the Icebreaker Army, he is not from the Hand of Winter.
...It's shameful to say that he is the only person in the Principality of Winter that can possibly be captured.
If you can catch him, you may be able to follow the clues and catch other remnants of the Icebreaker Army. You may even get key information about Vladimir the Winter Reverseer.
But this is only "possibility" and "maybe" after all.
It is not cost-effective to lose friendly relations with the underground city or even provoke other forces just for the sake of a possibility. After all, the search for Solonik was because Vladimir’s alternative plan could not be found or captured.
"I always feel as if I have been ripped off by a tragedy writer..." 2018
Annan muttered.
Had he known it would be so difficult, he would have asked Philip about the situation there.
But it is precisely because he knows that the situation here is difficult enough that there is no need to continue asking players to search for Solonik in the underground world.
I'm afraid that will only alert the enemy.
Let them expand and build teleportation arrays with peace of mind. Let’s stop for a moment in the quest to find Zolonik and Vladimir the Winter Defiant.
"...That's it."
Annan thought for a moment and quickly formulated a new plan: "Change the main mission of the Hidden Eye from 'searching for Solonik and Vladimir' to searching for the 'ship in the stone' silver.
"——I want to go to the ship in the stone myself. As a 'passenger', I will approach Selicia and take the opportunity to initiate a transaction with her."
It would be very troublesome to convict Selicia.
Then it’s better to think the other way around and let her get off the hook completely.
It is undoubtedly credible to swear and make promises as Annan. Let her become a tainted witness against others in exchange for removing the wanted case against Solonik.
In this way, she doesn't have to worry about leaking information and being arrested or hunted down when she goes to the world above the ground. Then she would be free to go wherever she wanted - using this as a trade should be considered worthwhile.
Currently, among the three enemies Dmitri is searching for, Professor Wolf is just looking for a way to ascend; while Solonik, or "Selicia" already has a new life of her own.
The only danger is Vladimir the Winter Defender.
The biggest traitor in the Principality of Winter.
So far, Annan can't even find his motive.
He didn't even know why Vladimir suddenly betrayed the Hand of Winter.
"However, the 'Ship in the Stone' has been moving across the rock formations. How many people want to find clues to it but can't..."
Nefertari looked at Annan with some worry: "And even if you find it, you are alone on the ship. What if something happens?
"She is a gold-level transcendent, and there are many followers on the ship. But Your Highness, you are just silver.
"It is naturally a good deal to let her off the hook. But are you the only heir to the Principality of Winter, Your Highness? If Selicia is connected with the Winter Defying Man, the purpose of her traveling to various places is related to If it is related to the one who goes against the winter... then this is tantamount to a sheep entering a tiger's mouth."
As a wise person, she would definitely try her best to stop this bold and almost willful plan.
But Annan just smiled.
"If you want to break the deadlock, you have to take risks."
There was no fear in his eyes: "It is precisely because it is very dangerous for me to go there in person~IndoMTL.com~Celicia herself will know this. That's why it seems sincere."
Moreover, Annan is not without his back-ups.
As long as he wants, he can teleport players to him at any time. Once the resurrection power is activated...it's not necessarily whose home field it is.
Just this, there is no need to tell Nefertari.
"As for how to hook up with 'Silver'... let me go back to the winter first and hire the Hidden Eye in an official name.
"Then disperse them, along with the information itself. Selicia must know what I am implying... When she knows this, she will stop and let me go.
"Before that, let them follow the place where 'Silver' appears - start a journey with the ship."
And, at the latest, the latest...
At the end of June, Vladimir the Winter Defiant and Selicia the Captain of the Stone will go to the bone raising ground - in order to compete for the holy bones.
Before that... Annan will go to the Black Tower of Zeland and use Bernardino's nightmare that Hugo helped Annan purify and advance to the gold level.
And this quota is for "Girandaio" rather than "Annan".
That was probably Annan's first opportunity to see the unsuspecting Vladimir. Before that, everything must be prepared.
And May 1st is Noah’s day to choose the king. Kafni will definitely need his help by then.
I am afraid that from May to June, Annan will not have much time.
It is early March.
"In other words, there are less than two months left..."
Annan murmured: "I have to go back to Winter first. Spread the information about 'Annan's return to the country'."
It is best to finish Selicia's matter within a month...
