Chapter 178 How to assassinate face to face and still fail
Just as Annan was thinking about Salvatore, Salvatore took the initiative to contact Annan as if he was in tune with each other.
"Annan? Can you hear it?"
Salvatore's face appeared in the floor-to-ceiling mirror of Annan's bathroom.
It can be seen that Salvatore is a little nervous.
He moved a small stool and sat upright in front of the mirror in formal attire. His body leaned forward slightly, with his hands on his knees.
He glanced at Dong Zhi's hand standing behind Annan's side, only half of his body exposed, and seemed a little embarrassed: "There are still people over you..."
"That's just an elder who is taking care of my daily life."
The water on Annan's body had not been completely wiped dry, and his hair was a little wet. His upper body was covered with heavy, furry clothes.
He smiled tenderly and harmlessly: "My family is very insecure. They always feel that maybe I will be suddenly kidnapped... So when I am at home, there is usually at least one person staring at me."
"That must be very uncomfortable."
"This is also a kind of good thought."
Annan replied.
He tilted his head: "Is there anything wrong with me suddenly? Or... experiment with this new ceremony?"
"Oh, by the way, Annan!"
Hearing Annan's words, Salvatore reacted: "This is my newly developed ritual. What do you think?"
“In the mirror field?”
"That's right!"
Salvatore's eyebrows were full of fatigue, but his tone was quite excited: "I thought before that the teacher is now the pope of the mirror... So can I see the mirror with my own eyes?"
"What's the result?"
"The result is really OK!"
Senior Salvatore shared his experience happily: "Before the sublimation ceremony of the person in the mirror, he was my idol! I admire and envy his ability to give golem life and his superb skills in controlling time... But I don't have the adaptability of the idol school, so I can only envy it.
"This time I'm going to get the signature token of the person in the mirror - it can be used as an infinite number of real names, and it also has a considerable degree of power. With this token providing a continuous stream of 'infinite overlapping echoes', I can experiment with new rituals in the mirror field!"
As a result, you made a video call?
Annan's expression was a bit strange.
But this thing is indeed very convenient...
"What is the name of this ceremony? How is it consumed?"
"I call it [Reflection of Friends' Mirror]."
"It's a pretty straightforward name."
"I couldn't think of any cool name for a moment... The material is very simple. In addition to the influence of the person in the mirror, I just need to paste my friend's painting on the back of the mirror, add the snake's egg liquid, hawkeye extract and the tears of the white calf, and add the curse objects that provide the power of the curse - I temporarily use my own blood.
"As for what cheaper and stable performance curse objects to be used in the future... I will find another way to optimize it."
Speaking of this, Salvatore showed a bright smile: "After all, I sleep less than ordinary people... You know it too."
"Well, after all, I am your secret keeper."
Annan nodded.
After Clarence died, Salvatore's secret guard was transferred to Annan.
Because of the trouble of the spell [Reflection of Sleeplessness], Salvatore is forced to stay up late every day. He can only go to bed at three in the morning and wake up at nine o'clock...
The second spell he obtained when he advanced to Silver also prevented him from sleeping for more than six hours every day. Every time he slept for more than one hour, his appearance age would be reduced by one year, but his life span would not increase accordingly.
...But in general, there are ways to avoid it.
After all, in terms of judgment, coma is not considered sleep.
So Salvatore's mood calmed down instead - as long as he stayed up late and was unconscious, he could make up for his sleep naturally.
Once you accept this setting, this is a reasonable excuse for staying up late to work overtime.
"But you came to contact me in particular, just to test the effect of the ceremony?"
Annan asked.
"I have actually tried it twice in the case of 'long distance' and 'changing name' - this time I mainly try it out, whether this ceremony can cross the big barrier and achieve foreign communication. The result is obviously good."
Salvatore was in a good mood: "Also, let me tell you the news about Noah... You are leaving too clean, I can't even contact you if I want to find someone to contact you."
As he spoke, he began to complain.
"Okay OK," Annan comforted him, "What news? About Kaphne?"
"...It's considered to be there, but that doesn't matter. There is a fallen man named Blood Demon in the capital. You know? He has become very demonized, and the [appendix] has almost formed, which is about the golden level without awakening elements."
Salvatore recalled, and said slowly: "But he was killed not long ago."
"That [Ritualist Killer]? Didn't he be killed long ago?"
"Originally, Philip thought he had killed the Blood Demon, but he didn't expect that the Blood Demon had only one head left, but he was still not dead."
Salvatore explained: "Later he was attacked by the Blood Demon in his room...it seemed very embarrassed, and his lover was also killed by the Blood Demon. But he was lucky enough to be safe in the end."
"... Philip is not dead?"
Annan was very surprised: "How did he do it?"
He was not surprised that the Blood Demon was not dead.
Because the one who took action against the Blood Demon at that time was Delicious Fengge - he deliberately did not kill the Blood Demon.
This was originally a cooperation between them. It was just that very few people knew about it.
But what surprised Annan was... why did the Blood Demon not kill Philip who was unprepared to his guard?
Philip is not a golden rank extraordinary person.
He is neither a transcendent nor a fallen person. He is just a senior ritualist.
How can you fail to assassinate the big crispy skin with your face? This damage is so damaging.
Are you embarrassed?
However, Salvatore vaguely figured out something from Annan's attitude.
"...So the Blood Demon is your person?"
Salvatore's expression suddenly became very strange. His upper body raised greatly backwards and made a difficult tactical backward.
"Be careful not to fall over."
Annan reminded: "Also, the Blood Demon is not my person. It is the delicious Fengge who brings the Blood Demon to Philip's house."
"I see……"
Salvatore suddenly felt a little regretful.
After knowing that it was Annan's idea to assassinate Philip, he immediately changed his mind and stopped pity Philip, but he began to turn around, but unfortunately Philip was not dead: "That should be because you didn't communicate well.
"The Blood Demon actually did not jump out to assassinate Philip on his own initiative, but his existence was noticed. So he was forced to jump out to assassinate - but he still failed in the end."
"He was discovered?"
"Yes."
Salvatore replied: "He is the saint of sacrifice, the 'one who is opposite to himself'. He went to the royal capital to search for the blood demon... Any depraved person with the trait of 'fruit' as his abilities will be found and killed by him. This is the most he has done in the past decade.
"His purpose is to prevent the sacred bones of 'Flesh and Blood of Sacrifice' from falling into the hands of the fallen."
