Annan looked at the wolf's paw and felt a little distracted for a moment.
He is actually very familiar with this claw...
As early as in the "Wolf Kiss" nightmare, Annan had appeared in the nightmare as Bella. At that time, he looked down at his hands after turning into a werewolf. It hadn't been too long since that time, and Annan had not forgotten it.
Now that he saw one of the hands falling into his own hand, still in the form of a canine paw, Annan immediately felt a strange sense of familiarity in his heart.
It’s not like, “I just want to live a quiet life.”
It's more like "come and shake hands"...
After holding the "dog paw", Annan's eyes immediately showed the system prompt:
[Unpurified Nightmare Fragments Detected]
[Nightmare fragments are bound]
[Level requirements: Must be at the same level]
[Occupational requirements: None]
[Special requirements: Three people need to enter at the same time, and the relationship between two of them must be close enough; and at least one of the three must be a female and at least one of the three must be a male]
Because his needs were not met, even if Annan held it, there was no reminder that he would fall into a nightmare ten seconds later.
...a three-person nightmare book?
Annan frowned slightly.
If it needs to be at the same level...then it needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
If Annan advanced to the gold level, it would be very difficult for him to find two people to advance with him.
"I have used rituals before to carefully explore the theme of this nightmare."
Maria explained: "This nightmare is the scene when you and Dmitri had a bet with the rotten man. It takes three people to enter this nightmare, and they are responsible for playing you, Dmitri and Bella respectively.
"If you can't find the right people now, after you advance to gold... you can enter this nightmare with me. I will help you find the right people."
Maria said calmly.
But the excitement in her words was not hidden at all.
——You actually just want to play duo queue with me, right?
Annan thought to himself.
But he wouldn't be stupid enough to tell the truth.
He would be beaten... although most likely it would not be Annan who would be beaten, but Maria who would find an excuse to beat Dmitri again.
According to Dmitry and Aunt Zoya, it seems that in the past, whether Maria or Annan made a mistake, Ivan would beat Dmitri. When Maria grew up, it became "
"If Annan makes a mistake," then Ivan and Maria will beat Dmitri.
Although the so-called "beating" was probably the same as when Dmitry wanted to smoke in front of Annan, Maria slapped him on the arm.
However, Ivan's beatings would be relatively painful - because the old man had very little strength, he would usually hit him with a three-color scepter.
"Because this nightmare involves the time when Dmitri lost a bet...and the time when Bella betrayed him, so I don't plan to let Dmitri know about it."
Maria whispered: "Nightmares are false after all. If he uses his control of the future to win, it will only make him feel empty; but if he fails, it will be a repetition of his fear. No matter what the outcome... for him
In other words, it will be secondary damage.”
What was reflected in her ice-blue pupils was a well-hidden concern: "Dmitri has gradually let go of that incident. I hope he won't be reminded of it again..."
"So when Dmitri comes back, remember to keep it a secret."
Maria said this, stretched out her slender white index finger of her right hand and put it in front of her lips, then slowly moved it away and pressed it on Annan's mouth.
She did not smile, but stared intently at Annan's eyes - especially Annan's left eye, which had no reflection and was as clear and transparent as a gem, an emerald green prosthetic eye.
"How are you doing, Annan?"
Maria whispered softly, just as the two of them were lying on their sides and chatting face to face before sleeping: "Do you feel a lot of pressure when you are alone? If you feel sad or lonely, will you?"
Do you want to cry?"
...Ah, that won’t happen.
Annan thought silently in his heart.
Sister, you may not know that in the past six months, I have accumulated hundreds of brothers here...
And I can actually get two friends to work with me to open up wasteland...for example, Lin Yiyi and Si Anke. He can even get a trio of people to open up wasteland for him now - those three people live next door now
guest room.
Let alone a three-person team, if necessary, they can do it a hundred times without changing. In this way, there will probably still be people who can't take their turn.
It can be said to be quite unfair.
The chance of teaming up with Annan to lead a farm is basically equivalent to a monkey rush...
"If there are three of them, I have someone I can trust."
Annan said casually: "I have three friends here who just meet this condition-a man and a woman, and the relationship between the two people is definitely good enough."
"How did you meet them?"
Maria was a little wary and asked casually: "Where is the remaining one?"
"Um……"
Annan fell into silence: "The remaining one is probably a woman."
In fact, he doesn't quite know how Huskies should be counted.
What made Annan's expression most subtle was that the three of them had rented two rooms in the Grand Duke's Mansion.
But Husky lives in a house with Shisanxiang, not with Aden. This is understandable. After all, Aden is a genuine teenage girl, but Husky is essentially a male social animal...
...and the player characters do not need to take off their clothes when sleeping, they only need to lie on the bed and log off.
However, it still sounds weird.
"As for how we met...they are actually visitors from another world summoned by the "Book of Heavenly Cars"."
"Are you talking about those kids?"
Dmitri's voice came from outside the house, and Annan quickly stuffed the dry "dog paw" into his arms.
This is also the unique gentleness and considerateness of this elder brother - speaking up before entering the door, in order to give the two people inside a decent chance.
Since Maria had something to talk about and behavior that she didn't want him to see, he simply signaled from further away that she was coming back soon, so as not to feel embarrassed when he saw something he shouldn't have seen the moment he entered the door.
After that, a few more seconds passed - it was obvious that Dmitri had deliberately waited at the door for a short time before he walked into the house.
He directly took off his coat and walked into the house wearing only his shirt.
He held a tray with two jugs of drinks, a barrel of bad wine and many snacks in one hand, and bowed to the two of them in an exaggerated manner with the other hand.
"Fortunately, I lived up to my fate——"
He bent down and asked Maria with a smile: "Excuse me, this distinguished lady, can I have a drink here?"
"You can drink by yourself, but you are not allowed to drink too much, and you are not allowed to drink with Annan."
Maria raised her head and said seriously with a straight face.
She said, sniffing slightly.
"And you still smell like smoke!"
"Hey, hey, I've already taken off my coat!"
"Who told you not to change your clothes properly? Your chest is not covered! It still smells of cigarette smoke!"
"Then why don't I go change my clothes first..."
Dmitri said with a grimace.
Maria was silent for a moment, then turned her head and looked at Annan.
Her tone also became slightly softer: "Forget it.
"Today is a day worth remembering. A little pungent taste may make the memory deeper."
With three people sitting at the table.
Maria was holding a golden, sparkling mead.
Even before she drank it, a slight blush appeared on her cheeks.
Dmitri also poured himself a glass of bad wine and poured Annan a glass of sparkling water. At the same time, he was still muttering: "Actually, Annan is an adult now. According to the rules of the old grandmother, he can already drink."
"Then we have to wait for Annan to choose the wine he likes."
Maria habitually talked back to Dmitri.
Immediately, she and Dmitri raised their wine glasses and looked at Annan.
They couldn't feel the joy and love, but sincere smiles appeared on their lips.
——It was as dazzling as the light in the hands of a blind man.
"Annan," Maria said softly, "the first time we met..."
"besides……"
Dmitri continued, while raising his glass steadily: "Long time no see."
