Faced with Salvatore's question, Annan replied without hesitation:
"Naturally keep fighting."
He first came to Rossburg just to kill Viscount Barbour.
He first sent mercenaries to plunder the Frozen Water Port, and then planned to assassinate Annan and Salvatore. Even if Annan relied on common sense, he knew that this grudge could not be overturned just by repeating the story.
He had no hatred, no hatred or anger towards Viscount Barbour.
But if we say it the other way around, when Annan thought about "should I kill Viscount Barbour?", he could clearly feel the joy in his heart.
——Then, I should hate this person.
"Alvin Barber..."
Annan muttered the name in an erratic tone.
There was no special expression on his face. He didn't say any harsh words such as "You pissed me off" or "You actually hurt my people".
His eyes just ignited with very pure joy and joy.
Want to kill. Want to kill very much.
Just imagining the pleasure after killing him, Annan could feel that his face was slightly red and hot, as if he had drunk too much wine.
"...How about I go with you, Don Juan."
Salvatore frowned, not too surprised by the answer: "How about you wait for me a little longer? I will disperse all the black fire here and go with you. It is easy for you to go alone.
dangerous.
"Besides, you don't actually need to take risks. You can just endure it for a while. After I return to the Black Tower, I will have a way to solve this trouble for you..."
"Thank you very much...I know you are worried about my safety, but I don't want to tolerate it."
Annan interrupted him: "Just like what you said before - this is what I have to do. It's not that I have a deep-rooted hatred for him personally, nor that I want to take back what he stole. Originally,
The power that belongs to me as lord.
"I just simply wanted to kill him."
His eyes seemed to be shining with light, and his tone was sonorous and powerful.
Annan's words were filled with the upright spirit of a hero, and strong positive emotions arose, as if his body was wrapped with holy light.
This even gave Salvatore some illusion:
It seems that Annan is not going to take revenge and kill people, but to give up his life to save the world...
"...But even if there is only one transcendent beside Mr. Viscount, it will not be easy for you to deal with just that person."
Salvatore advised tactfully: "Give me six hours...I will disperse all these black fires, and then you and I will go find him. He will definitely not run too far."
After all, the guards around him are just ordinary people and have no resistance to curses. Whether they are mentally controlled, frozen, blown to pieces, or directly restrained and trapped, there are dangers.
possible.
Salvatore thought with some worry.
Don Juan can only rely on me...
These guards are really too young.
Even if they can come back to life, they will always be afraid of death and pain, right?
Even if they are really not afraid of death or pain, they still look like they are only in their twenties or thirties.
What can these thirty-odd young men accomplish?
Although it is indeed very important for a swordsman to have a young and healthy body, it also means that he is short-sighted and has a simple mind. If he has not met many people, read many books, or experienced any hard battles, he will
It's easy to do something reckless. When facing a strong enemy, it's easy to have mental problems...
These are fatal.
But Annan just shook his head indifferently.
"I believe them, senior."
Annan's words were affirmed without hesitation: "They are all my most loyal and powerful guards. Each of them is an absolute elite."
Even the players can hear it. This is by no means a false flattery, but a heartfelt trust.
They were also a little moved by this for a while.
They suddenly realized that they had gradually fallen in love with this aristocratic young man who had a cold face and a warm heart, and refused to admit the kindness in his heart.
He will panic and fear because of the injury of the "mere guard", will abandon powerful reinforcements in order to prevent the fire from spreading, and will take risks to fight against powerful wizards who are far more powerful than himself in order to help others.
——He wants to kill Viscount Barbour now, probably to protect his own people.
Unlike Salvatore, players think so.
After all, the rule of the game for nobles is compromise.
Salvatore doesn't understand this, but players from modern society can understand it.
"Don Juan Geraint" jumped out of the rules of the nobility and fought with a weak body against powerful enemies... It should be for the light in his heart.
Only in the name of justice, do righteous things——
This is a mentality that is not afraid of the sky or the earth, which can only appear in the teenage stage of twelve or thirteen years old when they have begun to roughly understand the truth and know right and wrong, but are still disobedient to reality and unwilling to understand reality.
The players were a little disappointed.
Because they have passed this age.
Even if their current work is relatively in line with their wishes, they have begun to succumb to the rules of reality and understand that everything cannot be perfect.
But that's why.
Instead, a determination to "help Don Juan" arose in their hearts!
That is not charity, nor is it so-called loyalty, but it is not benefit either.
But their youth. Or rather, the lost youthful feelings——
--certainly.
Annan still knew their mentality very well.
They have such thoughts because they are under the guidance of Annan.
Before they entered the game, they had seen the promotional CG carefully selected and produced by Annan for them. The person in it was a person who fought for the sake of the people, for the sake of justice, without giving in to coercion and inducement, and with swords drawn against powerful enemies.
positive image.
He is more like a heroic knight than a nobleman. But this knight fell into the situation of being persecuted by the evil nobleman.
They will subconsciously sympathize with Annan. This sympathy will shorten the spiritual distance between them.
After all, Salvatore couldn't even think about the idea of "sympathy". It was impossible for him to sympathize or pity a nobleman.
But players are different.
They subconsciously believe that their status is higher than "NPC", even though they have now realized that this may be a real world.
But after all, they came in through games, and this arrogance will be rooted in their hearts and difficult to eradicate.
And Annan took advantage of this arrogance. In other words, with the help of this sympathy and scrutiny born from arrogance, it allowed them to have "empathy" with Annan.
The so-called empathy is the ability to understand the emotions and thoughts of others, understand the positions and feelings of others, and think and deal with problems from the perspective of others.
In other words, they unconsciously talked about Annan.
When Annan really leads them to defeat the Viscount, this empathy will be transformed into a beautiful shared secret, and they will have a beautiful memory.
Therefore, Annan could not let Salvatore get involved in this matter.
Only in this way can it become a date between "Don Juan Geraint" and the "player", rather than a gathering of three people.
This kind of "love marketing" is also one of the skills that Annan has mastered. People's IQs tend to drop when they are in love, because they will subconsciously entrust part of their thinking to another person.
And controlling other people's decisions is undoubtedly equivalent to controlling their minds.
"I will never let Alvin Barber live to see the sun tomorrow."
Annan turned around and said to the players in a deep voice: "Everyone, I plan to find trouble with the Viscount. He is undoubtedly an unjust party, and I have no intention and unwillingness to succumb to him.
"But after all, you have family and friends... My matter may make them offend some other forces. They may be more powerful than me and the Geraint family.
"So you don't have to get involved in this matter. If you want to leave, I will pretend that you have never been to Roseburg today and erase all your records today. Everything here has nothing to do with you - this is my decision
Promise of."
The implication of Annan's words is: Anyone who does not participate, I will reduce your favorability to zero.
The players also understood this meaning. Each of them had a resolute face and murderous intent in their eyes.
Annan looked at them and nodded with satisfaction.
He made a childish and cold voice: "Those who are willing to go with me, sheath their swords."
The next moment, a series of sheathing sounds were heard in a messy manner.
Although it is not neat, there is no naughty person.
They didn't even think about it.
There is no doubt that their concern for the safety of their relatives and friends, as well as their own safety, cannot compete with their loyalty to Annan.
This scene deeply shocked Salvatore.
He was silent for a while, then walked over and took out the hammer from his pocket, carefully handing it to Annan.
Salvatore whispered worriedly: "I'll lend it to you first. Remember to come back alive... and give it back to me."
"That's natural. I will definitely come back."
As Annan spoke, he opened the shoulder bag containing the kitchen knife and put the hammer in with a natural expression.
There was no fear or hesitation on his face:
"Because this is an act of justice - Yin Jue will definitely help me."
That kind of complete confidence is as bright as the sun.
