When Salvatore heard this, he hesitated.

He thought for a while and finally said to Annan:

"Then can you give me a copy and your contact information?"

...No, I want to give it too.

But this is really not the case...

Annan smiled bitterly and shook his head, explaining: "That won't work. They have a contractual relationship with me...the one you saw before."

"The contract that can be resurrected?"

Thinking of the life-and-death incident that day, Salvatore suddenly wondered: "Is the one that's so far away from you effective?"

"It's effective as long as I'm not dead, but since they are so far away from me, resurrection may consume a lot of curses. It will also make them weak for a while.

"But if it's really dangerous, you can ask him to explore the way for you."

Annan reminded Salvatore: "After all, they will not really die."

...In other words, it reminded me of Salvatore's shadow.

Annan also knew very well that even if he told Salvatore that the player could be resurrected and could be pushed out to take damage and die at the critical moment... Salvatore would definitely not do that.

He has a better understanding of this fool's personality.

This is a real idiot.

He is obviously different from Annan.

If Annan did good deeds, it was only because he did something based on morality, common sense and his own judgment, without hesitation or regret, and at the same time, the result of this thing was evaluated as good.

Salvatore, like Annan, does not care about ordinary evaluation standards of justice and evil, right and wrong. This may be the reason why the two of them can quickly become friends.

But the most different thing between Salvatore and Annan is that he has an extremely strong sense of compassion and the autistic idea of ​​not wanting to trouble other people.

As long as he sees others encountering real difficulties, it will be difficult for him to step out and leave alone. Salvatore is the kind of person who, when encountering a beggar asking for money, even though he knows that the money will not be retained at all.

Instead of being in the hands of street children, they will be confiscated into the hands of the gang members who control their begging...the kind of people who will also give them money.

But he won't give too much, just to satisfy the begging task of the day. He also won't eradicate the gang, because he doesn't know if he will mess things up.

This is because of Salvatore's inferiority complex.

He always thinks that he lacks talents, so he never fantasizes that he will become a hero, nor does he think that he can save others... So he will not meddle in other people's business, nor will he do things that he thinks he can't do. Just

He will do his best to save the people he sees.

This is because he simply doesn't want to see other people suffer because of his own reasons.

I can't bear to see him alive, I can't bear to eat his flesh when I hear his voice.

As for how the people who were saved because of him will think of him, and how the people who were not saved will think of him...that doesn't matter much to Salvatore.

——But the shadow is different.

Shadow is the opposite of Salvatore, an extremely selfish personality.

She will not take the initiative to harm others, because it is meaningless - what Salvatore has always pursued is "meaningless kindness that treats the symptoms but not the root cause". But this "meaninglessness",

But it becomes meaningful in front of the shadow.

Because of this, she can only pursue "meaningful" evil.

Apparently, Salvatore was unaware of his true talent.

In other words...he has not noticed until now that Shadow's state and personality will change at any time according to his state.

Because that's just his "reflection".

Based on the restriction that "what she does must have meaning", she can only actively use others to achieve her own goals——

Efficient, selfish, confident, doesn't trust anyone.

...just like a lone wolf playing high.

Annan believes that she will be able to make good use of "Longjing Tea", a player with immortality, at critical moments.

This is the tacit understanding between Annan and Shadow.

Even if there is a person between the two people, even if the two people do not talk directly, they can still send messages to each other.

Yes, Longjing Tea is indeed Annan's "mobile real eye" that broke into the Black Tower of Zedi, and it can also be regarded as the "spy" that copied the wizard tower's library.

But he is also the amulet and early warning device that Annan gave to Salvatore to save his life.

If something happens to Annan, Longjing Tea will indeed find a way to notify him...

But Salvatore never thought about it, what if something happened to him?

When that time comes, Shadow will definitely make the right choice.

Whether it's to let Longjing Tea delay time...or let Longjing Tea ask Annan for help.

"Then I'll leave, Annan."

With the help of Annan and the players, Salvatore quickly packed his luggage.

"Don't you need to take the Philosopher's Stone with you? There's still one left."

Annan asked: "You made this yourself - it is evidence that you used bronze steps to create the Philosopher's Stone."

"It's just a semi-finished product. It can't be considered a philosopher's stone..."

Salvatore smiled bitterly: "And I'm afraid they won't believe it easily if I take it back."

"How can you still not believe it?"

Annan raised his eyebrows: "If you do it in front of them again, won't you be able to prove everything?"

Hearing this, Salvatore shook his head repeatedly: "Forget it, it doesn't make any sense. And I really don't have the confidence to replicate it perfectly... I was able to do it this time, and it was... with the help of external forces. It's all my luck.

That’s fine, there’s no need to waste materials.”

When he mentioned "external force", his tone was vague.

But Annan still knew what he meant.

These three Philosopher's Stones are all transformation products of shadow.

After all, the material of the Philosopher's Stone is the marrow of the wizard.

Whether these materials come from the bequest of the wizard of this tower or the trophies left by the executed dark wizard...each material is equivalent to a human life.

Without confidence that he could complete the Philosopher's Stone, Salvatore did not dare to use these materials at will.

This is also the reason why his previous research and development has been in a deadlock - although he has achieved the best in theory, he still feels that there may be a problem with his formula. He has been reluctant to add this material... until he sleepwalks

.

Shadow used his body to successfully synthesize the Philosopher's Stone.

If the shadow is summoned, it is indeed possible to create the Philosopher's Stone again.

And Salvatore's self-esteem...or responsibility, or something else, he didn't want to rely on Shadow's outstanding achievements to be recognized by others.

He kept a distance between himself and the shadow, and remained fearful of the shadow.

——This shows that even though Salvatore successfully cooperated with Shadow once after being injected with the Philosopher's Stone, he is still wary of Shadow and plans to continue to seal his own shadow.

"It's up to you to take this Philosopher's Stone."

Salvatore told Annan: "Nicolas Flamel is very likely to be of the gold level. After living for so long, his strength is probably not just an ordinary gold level. If he is indeed using

If the Philosopher's Stone is still alive... you have the Philosopher's Stone in your hand. Whether you use it or get close to it, it may save your life at a critical moment.

"In addition... although it is a bit unbelievable, I have always felt that you are about to advance to the next level one month after becoming a transcendent... Here are the ways to advance that I have summarized in the past few days that you may be able to use."

With that said, Salvatore handed Annan a piece of paper: "Be careful, Annan. Don't die."

Annan put it away solemnly without even looking at it.

He nodded seriously to Salvatore.

"I will."

"...I will try my best to complete the exam in May, and then I will go to the capital to find you. Goodbye, Annan."

"See you in May, Salvatore."

Annan responded softly.

Watching Salvatore and Longjing Tea go away, Annan sighed softly.

Prepare for a while, and then prepare to advance to Silver.

Nightmare: There are not many available times left in the gallery, and now the player's wasteland development team has almost finished exploring the mechanism.

At that time, you must leave the "gallery" at least once to advance to silver.

After all, this dungeon, Annan, is very familiar with it, and the various cool operations used to complete advanced tasks cannot be better.

The novice copy is almost ready for players to clean up.

Then it's almost time...
Chapter completed!
