Although I know that Bernardino will most likely go to Nicholas after his resurrection.
But Annan and Zhiji did not directly go back to block him.
Because this is completely unnecessary.
There is a saying that if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves. As long as Nicholas is alive, Bernardino can go to him at any time.
But Annan can't always have Zhi Ji by his side. After all, he can no longer run around the world...
If Bernardino has a grudge and keeps following Annan...he really doesn't have any good ideas.
But Annan has another place to go——
In front of Noah's First Bank, a large amount of white dust gathered in the air, forming a pile of Annan and Paper Princess.
"This is it."
Zhi Ji replied.
Naturally, she held Annan's hand again.
When Annan held her hand, even Annan's sense of existence was erased by the ritual wrapped around her body.
Because she is a god with the element of "beauty", Paper Princess usually does not deliberately reveal herself when she is on the road rather than looking for someone to sell her paintings. Otherwise, the impact she will have will also have on many ordinary people.
cause some damages.
This is what Zhi Ji doesn't want to see.
So she used an original ritual called "Shadow in the Painting" to eliminate her own sense of existence.
She also gave this ceremony to Annan.
To put it simply, when Paper Princess makes no sound, anyone who sees her with their eyes cannot detect that she is a "three-dimensional" existence in this space. Just like Paper Mario turning sideways.
Same...become a real paper man.
No matter from any angle, she is just "a piece";
Only people with outstanding perceptual abilities can capture the three-dimensional existence of Paper Princess through perception.
This ritual might be used in the future, so Annan wrote it down.
Although as its material, it needs to consume the influence from Paper Princess...it is also very limited and is ineffective against wizards and priests; it can only last until it "makes a sound".
But on the other hand, if you don't make a sound, then this ritual can remain non-consuming and continue forever.
Maybe it will have special use in nightmares.
As a material that can have an impact at any time, Annan got Zhi Ji's real name.
"My name is [Lisa Gradini]. This is the name given to me by my lover, the person who gave me life."
Zhiji said: "If you use up this knowledge, just call me during the ceremony. I will recharge it for you..."
Because it was told to Annan by Zhi Ji herself, it also belongs to the mysterious knowledge of the Eight Classics and has its own special power:
[Acquire mysterious knowledge: the true name of the God of Painting and Illusion, "Pajihime"]
[This mysterious knowledge can be used as "divine descending ritual: calling the 'Paper Princess'", "golden mantra (idol school): reflected in the painting", "primary influence: the residue of the most beautiful thing"]
[This mysterious knowledge will be forgotten after using it "1" time, and you need to "listen to the voice of 'Paper Princess'" before you can recall it again]
This is the third real name given to Annan.
Apart from Grandma's [Ligredo] and Fufu's [Artabanus], there is only Paper Princess's [Lisa Gradini].
Moreover, this is a name that makes Annan feel somewhat familiar...
Just like "Michelangelo" and "Nicholas" before.
Annan happened to have heard of this name.
——"Lisa Gradini".
This name has another widely known identity.
It is also the prototype of the famous painting "Mona Lisa".
...In every sense of the word, it is a name that suits her very well.
After Annan and Zhiji used the ritual to hide their bodies, they sneaked directly into Noah's First Bank.
Of course they weren't trying to rob a bank...
That’s it for other countries or cities.
The bank in Noah's capital was personally guarded by the Silver Knights.
That's a bank...
The Silver Knights who are fighting a defensive battle here gather together as a team. Even if they form a team of gold-level extraordinary beings, they may not be able to defeat them.
They will enter here just because Annan is looking for someone:
This is what Old Bread told Annan before, a senior Silver Knight he knew.
He is not a bishop. He has personally killed gold-level hunter extraordinary beings without high-level magic and blessings.
The extraordinary person's profession is "Shadow Hunter", which is very difficult to deal with. It is a special profession that can jump and walk freely in the shadows, and by attacking other people's shadows, causing imprisonment, curses, poisoning and physical damage to others. It can be said that it is the right person.
People specialize in types of careers.
But such a hunter was killed by the silver knight overstepping his rank.
His name is Alexander Robin.
Now this silver knight is the chairman of Noah's First Bank, and a director of Noah's Second Bank and Iris Bank. Old Bread had already written to Annan before he set off to inform him of the Annan meeting.
He came to visit and heard that he would appear with Zhi Ji; and he wrote a letter of introduction to Annan.
Old Bread told Annan that if you encounter any inconvenience and don't want to tell the Crow family about the trouble, you can use this letter of introduction to find Old Robin; if there is a conflict with the Crow family, you can also go to Noah's First
The bank defected to him and sought his asylum.
If you have nothing to do for the time being, you can go to him to learn swordsmanship.
Alexander's swordsmanship level is very strong. He changed his profession to the Silver Knight at the Silver level. Before that, his Bronze level profession was called "Champion Swordsman". Before entering the extraordinary world, he had to compete in the Kingdom of Noah in a certain year.
It is a rare profession that only by winning the swordsmanship competition can you get the "Championship Medal" and get a job.
This is the legacy of the "god of swords and duels" Iris before he became a god.
He is a false god born in the third generation, the holder of the most famous book of truth in the world, "The Sword of Victory and the Crown of Glory". A rare elf god, he is now the only three followers of the Red Knight.
One of the gods.
When he was still a mortal, he received the title page of the Book of Truth.
Then he officially traveled around the country as a mortal in the name of "Future God". He participated in all the swordsmanship competitions he knew, using the power of the Book of Truth to eliminate the opponent's power that was higher than his own, or his own power that was higher than the opponent's.
Strength, when the attributes of both parties are completely consistent, a fair duel can only be carried out with swordsmanship.
And he won the championship in all competitions and was even made a prince by the empire.
——Later, after he became famous as "the strongest man in swordsmanship", he quickly advanced to the gold level, and entered the desert as an elf, embarking on a lonely journey eastward in search of the legendary missing person.
Headed to the Western Oasis, but stayed with the remnants of Orser in the desert.
That was the empire that the ancestors of the elves once lived in but had abandoned.
No one knows what happened to him in the desert of the east.
But when he returned to Yasselan again, he had become a god.
Among his four favorite medals, the traces of Iris Marquis' swordsmanship are engraved on them. If you win a national-level swordsmanship competition and enter the nightmare with this medal, you can advance to become a "Champion Swordsman".
Of course, such a formal charm cannot be given directly to the winner... After the advancement is completed and the power accumulated from the sword competition ceremony is exhausted, the medal must be returned to the country.
But even so, Noah will only give birth to one "champion swordsman" every year.
Old Bread hopes that Annan can learn this swordsmanship from Alexander.
And Annan also happily accepted——
Although his commonly used weapons now are boning knives and hammers, he doesn't have too many of these good things...
