Chapter 203 It can also be defeated from the outside
That voice is——
Annan turned around in shock.
But on that TV, I saw the side face of a silly white-haired girl.
She was yelling something while being dragged forward by the people around her.
Because it had been too long since he had seen anyone else. Annan was even dazed for a moment before he recognized that the silly face belonged to the husky.
——It’s the players!
But...why are they here?
Annan was a little surprised.
They shouldn't be able to advance to gold.
Players' desires are extremely shallow, and they don't have the adaptability of elemental power. It's not difficult to advance to Silver, but almost no one has the adaptability of Gold level.
Annan originally planned to wait for this incident to end, then return to Winter to help the players defeat a few virtual world demons and advance them.
What the players have are false souls.
Their real souls have always been stored in the Book of Heavenly Carts, and those who control their bodies are just illusory artificial souls.
It is impossible for them to withstand creation-level extraordinary knowledge.
unless……
Annan turned around and looked at the players blankly.
The more than twenty people who originally murdered each other and held them back were all replaced by players.
They are all very familiar faces to Annan.
Lin Yiyi, Si An Ke, Longjing Tea, Delicious Wind Goose, Dove, Husky, Shisanxiang, Ah Dian, Jiuer...
——They formed a mighty group of twenty-five people and entered the "Hell of Motion".
They are...
Are you here to save me?
Annan's pupils, which had become somewhat hollow, regained some color.
In the camera lens, Longjing Tea said in a deep voice: "Long time no see, Annan. I know you can see it - at least that's what Sir Chiron said."
"Don't you call me His Majesty Annan anymore..."
Annan murmured helplessly.
But in response to the rude behavior of the players, Annan's lips turned upward again.
He couldn't remember...the last time he laughed.
He looked at this group of players with great concentration and nostalgia.
Like a mother, a grandmother watching her children.
"Listen to me, we already have a rough idea of the dilemma you're facing -
"After you entered the nightmare, you never came out. It has been more than a month now.
"A week after you entered the nightmare, Mr. Salvatore detected that your soul was not reacting properly, so he called us over and we went to find Chiron together.
"We found a way to free Chiron and let him predict your current situation. We also learned about the problems you are facing——
"If Sir Chiron has not made a mistake in his judgment, you should be in a state of 'the sacrifice has not been filled', right?
"You still need some souls who have reached the gold level, or possess creation-level knowledge, to enter this nightmare... Only then can you fight the real enemy, right?"
……Roughly the same.
Although the essence is a bit different, fortunately the meaning is not wrong.
Annan nodded.
His somewhat stiff brain has been awakened again in these conversations.
He realized what this meant.
——This is indeed a cage that cannot be opened from the inside.
As long as "Seven Echoes of Despair" are not completed, Annan's main mission will never be able to begin.
But on the other hand...
What if we continue to put some power into it from the outside?
"Look at us—"
Lin Yiyi said firmly: "It's not because of the 'main mission' you assigned us."
Husky continued: "It's because you brought us into this world——"
"Because you do regard us as friends, not leeks and tool people."
"We are not fools. Since we advanced to the Silver level, our memory has become more than ten times stronger, and our bodies have become healthier..."
"One of my abs turned into eight pieces out of thin air!"
"And now that you are really in danger, we can't turn a blind eye."
"——If you don't give in to the BOSS, are you looking down on your brothers?"
...How can I not shake people? I can’t shake them because I don’t have a signal.
Annan thought so and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
He understood how the players came in - they did not advance to gold, nor could they possess the knowledge of Genesis.
So they divided a piece of creation-level knowledge into many parts - and tried to pour in in the name of a group!
In this way, other copies also...
Annan's eyes slowly lit up.
He endured the growing anticipation and finished watching the video tape marked "147".
He then opened another videotape.
First is the blue world labeled "369".
Floating on the ice, frozen in it... Which players can enter that world?
Are they planning to just hang up when they are trapped? But I can't open the forum here, can they really log out normally?
What if they stay in this otherworldly nightmare for too long and something goes wrong with their bodies?
Annan pressed the remote control while worrying about them.
Then his pupils widened.
——Because it is not the player who enters this world.
But his sister, Maria Winter.
She was standing tall and majestic, frozen in the ice.
She couldn't open her mouth, so she couldn't say a word. She just looked at the distant town indifferently.
The surrounding sky gradually darkened, and the storm rolled with thunder, accelerating the ice ship and blowing it forward.
That is the "storm element" that belongs to Maria, the daughter of storms of all ages!
"...Did sister come to save me too?"
Annan first felt a burst of joy.
But then I felt scared again.
He could almost imagine how he would be scolded by his sister when he left this nightmare.
He couldn't help but shrink his neck and murmured in a low voice: "Why do they keep talking about everything..."
The next moment, Annan couldn't wait to open the [white] videotape code-named "258".
This nightmare comes from the senior who once wrote "Praise to the Name of the Sky Crane" and passed the level and left before the nightmare was deformed... But now after the nightmare has been deformed, it also belongs to the vacant one.
But Annan saw an unexpected figure inside -
"Kafni?!"
Annan's eyes widened and he blurted out in surprise: "What is she doing here? Does Noah want it? If she is really trapped...!"
"My lord..."
Kafni, wearing a gray cloak, raised her head and looked at the sun, murmuring to herself: "In the past, even though no one praised, even if no one knew, the hero saved us all..."
The sun shone on her face - she couldn't open her eyes since she hadn't seen the sun for a long time.
The shadow under her skirt automatically stretched out and blocked her eyes, forming a translucent smoke-colored baffle similar to sunglasses.
The sun in this world is not as gentle as Mr. Yao.
As a shadow demon, she is even gradually melting under such strong sunlight. She must constantly extract the shadows from the outside world in order to repair herself.
But she was never afraid of the burning pain.
Physical pain is better than mental anxiety.
In her pupils, crimson blood flashed across her eyes.
Kafni murmured softly: "This time it's my turn to save you.
"No matter what, I will take you out."
"Kafni..."
Annan murmured softly.
It's just crazy.
The tower master abandoned the wizard tower, and the queen abandoned the country. Players who did not live in this world even temporarily abandoned their bodies...
Annan had almost guessed who the friend in that green world was——
As Annan opened the videotape code-named "456".
A man wearing a black and red robe with a stand-up collar, with calm eyes but full of anger, was holding his pockets with his hands, standing upright in the blazing sea of fire.
His right eye turned into a dark golden vertical pupil, and there were cracks around the eye socket, as if one-third of his cheek had been burned.
His right arm turned into a completely demonic hand, and a ferocious and huge third hand, inlaid with gold and crimson jewels, extended from his shoulder.
He relied on the raised third hand to automatically cast spells, constantly burning this infinitely expanding green sea.
"——I thought you wouldn't fall into such a trap."
The man replied briefly: "If you want to know something, just go see Longjing Tea and the others. I don't want to say anything right now."
"I'll teach you a lesson with Ms. Maria when I get back."
Although his temperament has changed greatly, and even his tone has changed slightly.
