Annan and the others' previous battles were all fought in the barrier summoned by the demon in the virtual world.
The Gray Tower was not damaged because Annan summoned the noble false body.
The building was not broken, so no alarm sounded. The wizards and ritualists studying in the Gray Tower were not aware of what happened on the top floor...
It is also impossible to know that their fake "Lord of the Tower" is dead.
And there is no whole body left.
Therefore, after leaving the barrier, Annan and his team stayed peacefully on the top floor and searched around, but no one came to trouble them.
As for Professor Gray, who should theoretically be "resurrected"...
"He shouldn't be too far away."
Longjing Cha analyzed: "He doesn't just want to change his body. He wants to take this opportunity to use Annan's name as 'Heavenly Car' to complete his own sublimation ceremony.
"Since Professor Gray knew that the boss was here and did not stop him, but stood at the door to greet him... then it can be considered that he has completed other preparations.
"Then, if he leaves too far, he may leave the ceremony site."
Any ceremony has a ceremony venue.
As long as the key components leave the ceremony site, the ceremony will be ineffective. This component is not necessarily the ritual master himself... For example, for the ceremony of the Skeleton Duke, what he needs is the tombstones buried under the Principality of the Song of Songs, not himself.
.
Professor Gray can indeed be reincarnated into a body far away from him.
For example, "Professor Wolf".
Although the relationship between them has been completely severed, in essence, it is more like a "fake divorce". They can completely become one person again under Professor Wolf's advice.
This is also the reason why it is difficult to completely kill the high-ranking idol wizard.
They are just like cockroaches... when you see one cockroach, there is actually a cockroach nest in your home.
"But if he is resurrected from Professor Wolf," Ah Dian gradually came to his senses, "then his sublimation ceremony will have failed!
"Because as long as he leaves the Gray Tower and is reborn under another name, it means he has left this ritual site. Then this ritual will automatically become invalid."
The sublimation ceremony of the man in the mirror at that time was to set up mirror symmetry in time and space at the same time... It actually opened the second ceremony place in another place, rather than escaping the original ceremony place.
He was still a fetus and had to be born in Roseburg in the North Sea Territory in order to complete the second half of the ceremony.
Since Professor Gray needs "Annan" to be present during the ceremony, it means that this is his ceremony venue. He must be reborn near Annan - and before he can sublime, he must meet Annan again!
...But as long as he doesn't take the initiative to show up, it will still be very difficult for Annan to find him.
This "stealing of names" by the idol wizard is not just an illusion or a modification of other people's memories, but a modification of the laws of the world.
Even if Annan is a gold-level transcendent, he cannot be immune to this effect and directly recognize the essence of Professor Gray.
Unless he takes the initiative to use the extraordinary ability of the gold level, or he unconsciously does something that he should not do due to the "status" of the owner of this body... Only then can this pretender be found out through logical analysis.
.
Even if you rely on memory to distinguish, it is useless.
Because the moment Professor Gray replaces him, this person's past will also be modified by him. In this case, we have to search for the only "suspect" from the entire Gray Tower... This kind of 100 people and 1 wolf
Game, it plays like minesweeper.
Of course, Annan still has a last resort.
That is to take action directly and kill the entire Gray Tower from top to bottom - when Professor Gray is killed, he will naturally be exposed.
This is definitely the best way to use it.
In this case, Professor Gray would not even be able to quibble... The only problem is that this would be too unjust.
If Annan really did such a thing, he would be no different from Cheng Ling Monk.
——Thanks also to those mirrors.
It was precisely because of their existence that Annan, who was already weak in emotions and relied solely on his own moral standards to manually restrain himself, saw a clear "red line."
That is, "I don't want to do" and "I don't want to do" things.
However, it seems that there is no need to use such violent methods...
Annan thought for a moment and asked Nefertari: "Do you have any ideas? After all, you should be the strongest ritualist taught by Professor Gray.
"In this case, it will be difficult for him to hide the traces of his unique knowledge when teaching you. So in your opinion, what kind of sublimation ritual will he adopt? In other words, if you were him, what would you do?
What kind of ceremony will be adopted?"
After all, she was once a student of Professor Gray, and she was also the type who specialized in rituals. With Nefertari’s knowledge of rituals, she even knew what the prayer to the sky wheel was... So what about the ritual that Professor Gray is using now?
, she should know more or less some information.
At least it can provide some ideas.
"...I may actually know something."
Nefertari thought for a while and said seriously: "If we follow the teacher's style, then the one with the highest priority in his ceremony should be Nieussel."
Hearing this, Neusser's expression became a little nervous: "But, I really am..."
"I know."
Annan interrupted him and added: "I have also thought of this possibility. So I have already dealt with it - you and Neuser are both my apostles now, and it is impossible for him to occupy the position of an apostle.
grid."
"So that's it, have we begun to enter the 'history of ascent'?"
Nefertari suddenly understood.
Annan nodded: "This is the minimum employee benefit."
"Then that's not bad. I thought of a few rituals that can only be used by high-level beings... But let's not mention these for now."
The red-haired girl with flaming eyes coughed slightly, and her expression became serious: "This is about a concept that the teacher admires most..."
"'——[Only hatred can give people lasting strength].'"
Annan and Nefertari said in unison.
Seeing this, Nefertari was startled.
She looked at Annan in surprise: "You know?"
Annan nodded: "I have indeed heard this sentence before...but I still guessed it. But after you said it, I can almost confirm it."
That was what he heard Professor Gray say in his nightmare.
In the nightmare... After that sentence, Professor Gray actually added another sentence -
