The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 1211 Gryanznuha (two in one)

Gryaznuha.

Annan heard this name for the first time when he first entered "Nightmare: Gallery".

He was in Amos's study and saw some banned books.

Among them, in "The Danger of Belief in These Gods", Annan saw the name Gryaznuha Lindong for the first time.

In this book, Gryanznuha blows up the Skeleton Lord as an ancient god of the third era.His original words were "false gods emerging in the Third Epoch"—in fact, if the history of the entire kingdom of giants is counted, it almost did start from the Third Epoch.

However, as an individual, the bone bone man actually only lived for a few hundred years.

This kind of disguise is obviously to create a sense of security for readers that "he has lived for so long, there must be other people who have used this ritual, and if something happened, he should have become an evil god."

After that, Gryanznuha described in this book that "the rituals of the Skeleton Lord are all deceptive, and every time the ritual is performed, the price will be paid more next time", while on the other hand he wrote "every time the ritual is performed How to choose the strategy with the highest income during the ceremony, and how to cut off after the ceremony takes effect.

This gives people an illusion—although the ritual of Lord Skeleton is very dangerous, if I follow the content of this book and strictly follow the strategy, then it is equivalent to being able to prostitute for nothing without paying the price.

But of course that is impossible.

If there is such a good thing, it is definitely not something that newcomers who have just come into contact with mysterious knowledge can understand; to take a step back, if the content of this book is correct, but the bone bone is not a fool——

This print version of the "bestseller" has long since spread to all parts of the world.It is not an original handwritten version. When you see that it is a printed version or even has a publishing house, you should know that many people have tried it and tried to squeeze the wool.

He is not a unique genius. After seeing the alluring descriptions in this book, wouldn't everyone do it, but he is the only one who is special?

And if so many people have successfully plucked the wool, wouldn't Mr. Bones modify the conditions of the ceremony?

——This skeleton man is not a wool man, and his power is not unlimited.How can a mortal who can become a god be an idiot who has been deceived infinitely?Where did he get so much wool to squeeze?

But these bewildered ceremonial masters, of course, don't think about it.

In a sense, on the one hand, this book is spreading the ritual of contacting Skeleton Lord, and on the other hand, it is also doing preliminary screening.

Those who come into contact with Mr. Bones because of the contents of this book are mostly arrogant and brainless people who think that "I am the only one in the world who is special".

Either they never thought that other people could also get this knowledge; or they thought that they were different from those people, and if they were themselves, they would not be deceived.

Therefore, the above knowledge is completely correct as far as the content of the text is concerned.Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to pass the review and have a regular publishing house publish it on his behalf—this means that the publishing house is responsible for the content of the text.

In fact, there are indeed similar rituals and divine arts, which can directly judge whether others have lied or not, and whether they have really mastered a certain ability.

Since the book can be published, it means that its author has passed the review.Then he does have similar knowledge, and at least "literally" it is true.

But as for whether there is a part hidden...

That is inevitable.

According to the rules of mysticism books, books that can be published publicly must not fully describe all mystical knowledge... The specific bottom line is that after reading this book, at least no new wild ritual masters can be cultivated.

This means that Gryanznoha has processed this knowledge.Make newcomers unable to use the contents of this book at all.

Then, it is actually not an "original canon", but a "pseudo-canon".

If Amos had realized this, he would not have held the ceremony so rashly.

However, its title of "banned book" deceived him.

This is obviously because some people realized that the book was full of lies more than ten years after it was published.In order not to let other people be deceived, this book was banned.

As a result, Amos confirmed that—since it was banned, then what was written in it must be a good thing!
Therefore, Amos did not share the contents of this book with anyone.

Before holding the ceremony, he didn't ask any professional...whether it was any wizard or ritual master's opinions and suggestions, just for fear that others would snatch the book.

After all, Amos himself is a mortal, which was found in the relics of his wife, the dark wizard.

Although here, Amos's stupidity and greed cannot be washed away.

He also paid for what he did.

However, the blame cannot be placed on the victim because of the foolishness of the deceived.The culprit of all this is, after all, the mastermind of the scam...that is, Gryanznuha.

The one who was "delisted" was the cold winter of a certain generation.Being able to have one's surname removed is already a first-class crime in Lin Dong... not only legally, but also morally.

But Gryanznuha still named himself "Winter", which means he thinks he is not wrong.

In terms of specific seniority, he can probably be regarded as Annan's grandfather - he was of the same age as Ivan's father.

Gryanznuha has been living in exile for so many years, he should have given birth to some children... These children all have the blood heir curse of "Heart of Winter", and theoretically they can also pick up the Three Sirens.

As early as when the Northland Alliance rebelled, Annan actually suspected once... The reason why those guys made troubles was not to grab power from Demetrius, but to defect to the Duchy of Winter claim guy?
After all, because of the old grandmother, it is unrealistic for someone other than "Rin Dong" to be the Grand Duke.When the old grandmother wakes up, the usurper will pay the price immediately.

But if Duke Lingdong's surname is still Lingdong, then this is just a family matter - they just defected to one of the Lingdong family, not a rebellion to seize power.This means that even if they are liquidated, they can only use family law, not national law.

And from another point of view...

According to the news from Euphemia, Annan learned that the Melvin family relied on Silu to continuously draw power from the bone bone.

When Skeletal Lord disappeared from this world, Annan thought for a while—would it be possible that the Melvin family would not be able to draw any power because of this?
But if it is said that the backstage of the Melvin family has been Gryanznuha from the very beginning...

That means, they are not enemies but allies.The process of them stealing the power of the bone bone, the bone bone is not unaware of——

"……I see."

Annan suddenly recalled the first time he met Mr. Bones.

After he found out that Annan was a Frostborn, his tone became friendly.He also called Annan "Annan Shuangyu", and said that "sooner or later it will be Shuangyu".

This is indeed true-when Annan dies, he will change from the people of winter to the dragon of frost whisper.

But if it is said that this good impression is not because of his good relationship with the old grandmother, this title is not based on the perspective of the deceased, but because the Pope of the Skeletal Lord, from the very beginning, is Gryanznuha Lindong, or ...Gryanznoha Frostwhisper?
【My deal with my old grandmother led me to follow the young dragon to this place】

【He asked me to protect the descendants of Frost Whisper】

The content of this transaction was approved by Sir Silver.And Sir Silver said it was something he had "just heard a few days ago".

Then the problem is coming.

The old grandmother knew many gods, why did she entrust Annan's safety to a false god?
And why is it the skeleton man?
This "following the young dragon to this place" obviously refers to asking Skeleton Lord to go from Frozen Water Port to Roseburg-to protect Annan from the hands of the rotting man.

But Annan remembered very clearly that there was no snow in Frozen Water Port at that time.That is to say, the old grandmother who is half asleep and half awake should not be able to contact the skeleton man who has no direct relationship with her.

How did Lord Bones know about this?
"finally, I understand……"

All these clues were connected in series, finally allowing Annan to understand everything.

The old grandmother's order was obviously not passed directly to Skeleton Lord, but to Gryanznuha!

Gryanznuha dared to call himself the surname of Lindong, obviously approved by the old grandmother-those "elders" who gave orders to the Lindong family were not squires in small villages.It's not a problem that he can solve by hiding and not returning to Lin Dong.

It's the upright god, the ancestor of the dragon!

This shows that he should have committed some sins that are unforgivable in the eyes of the Lindong family and the Lindong Principality, but to the old grandmother, it is not a big crime.So much so that now, someone has pulled up a "rebel army" in his name.

Whether it is the nobles of the Northland or Melvin... they have obviously defected to Gryaznuha!

In other words, Gryanznuha himself has the idea and ability to become the Grand Duke of Winter.There are no idiots in the Melvin family, and they can be recognized by them; it shows that the possibility of this plan is not weak.

—Gryanznuha himself must be found.

Such a thought appeared in Annan's mind.

Only by finding Gryanznuha himself can we truly end everything facing Winter—let Winter usher in the decades-long spring.

Then the problem at hand has changed from a "little matter" of nobles being stupid and trying to elevate their status to a big problem of "the former prince's seizure of the throne".

"I thought that if Skeletal Lord died, his influence on the world would disappear completely..."

Annan lowered his eyes.

Bright light shone from his eyes.

"I didn't expect that I would ignore such important news."

He walked up to Earl Melvin, reached out and patted his forehead, and said softly, "Relax, I don't want to kill you here... You should accept the justice of the law in front of the people.

"Before that, let me see - who is Gryanznuha and what is he going to do."

Behind Annan quietly emerged his sublime false body.

And under Annan's feet, the magic circle formed by the splendid brilliance bound Annan and Earl Melvin together.

The wings of light representing "understanding" shone and held up high, and Annan's pupils began to flow a lot of information——

The secret information mastered by Earl Melvin and hidden in his mind was quickly "understood" by Annan.Just like a computer with default firewall settings, it is generally powerless in the face of the world's top hackers.

It wasn't about using Imperius, controlling the consciousness of Earl Melvin, stealing or rewriting his memories.

but very simple...

It's like holding a credit card and swiping it on a POS machine-the "information" inside is read out.

Now Annan is the POS machine.

As for the knowledge in Earl Melvin's mind, he didn't even set up a "payment password".

After about five seconds of reading, Annan put his hand down.The light behind him was dim, and Earl Melvin still looked at Annan in fear—he probably understood something, but he had no sense of what happened.

If one wants to search for memories and knowledge that are not sure in which year they were stored in the vast sea of ​​memories at this age, even a master of memory will have to search for an hour or two.

Moreover, too rough and rapid reading and writing may burn the subject's brain.Just like the hard disk also has an upper limit of read and write speed.

However, the knowledge "understood" by Annan did not even pass through Earl Melvin's mind.He didn't even know what knowledge Annan saw, this memory had already been copied by Annan.

——This is the power of the power of the elements.

Those who have no elements and no truth are, after all, just fragile mortals.In the face of the power of the elements, any spells and rituals lower than the gold rank are invalid.

Even if the gap between a real mortal and a silver-level transcendent is so great... But for gold, they are still mortals who have not yet taken the first step.

And after a complete search of Earl Melvin's memory, Annan finally understood everything that had happened in these years.

His judgment was correct—

The Northland Alliance and the Melvin family, as well as some local officials, have defected to Gryaznuha.

His real name is indeed not Gryanznuha Rinwon.

It was Gryanznoha Frostwhisper.

As Lin Dong, who was of the same generation as Grandpa Annan, his body has died now, and he has become a dragon of frost language.

Anyone will think it is the spokesperson of the old grandmother.

But why doesn't it enter the realm of the old grandmother, but is still floating in reality?

The reason is also very simple.

——Because it is not the Frostscale Dragon.

It's an undead dragon.

Under the condition of voluntary, it was transformed by the bones...the only undead dragon in this world.

The reason why he will be recognized by the old grandmother is also very simple.

This is different from Annan's initial judgment——

Gryanznuha did not go to the worm.

Instead, I intend to use another means to fight the worm.

If worms irreversibly pollute and gnaw through this world.Then it can collect the souls of this world and enter the dream world as the carrier of this world.And in this process, he must become the apostle of the bone bone... so he helps the bone bone to speed up the acquisition of other people's souls.

Because Gryaznuha is already dead and cannot dream.

Therefore, he can directly travel through the dream world and find the next world suitable for living—as long as his body can withstand the pressure of the dream world.

After arriving safely, Gryanznuha can shape a body for the soul through the magic of the skeleton.Redevelop this civilization in the form of undead.

"—To put it simply, a defeatist strategist?"

Annan whispered: "What does he think he is? A Wallfacer?"

More than 100 years ago, this was indeed a feasible plan.

He needs to experiment with undead transformation.And that process requires a lot of...people.

That's why he was the only Lin Dong who was removed from the list.

But in the dimension of the old grandmother, he was indeed another possibility for the continuation of world civilization.

However, Gryanznuha's plan, and even his existence, completely lost their meaning after the birth of Annan, the new Skycar.

Because of the existence of the crane, the worm may not be irresistible.

Therefore, Gryanznuha, who was already close to madness, did not accept such a fate.He is stubbornly preparing for the end of the world, as if the sky train will fail by default, as if the sky train does not exist.

Therefore, in his plan... it is logical that he needs to get the Duke of Winter and become the Grand Duke of Winter.

He must have enough power before he can turn the people of a country into undead.

Just like the old Skeleton Lord.

——With the death of the Skeleton Lord and the relocation of the Betrayal God, the Skeleton God is still vacant.

"Worthy of the Pope of Midas."

Annan sighed:
"...This ignorance is exactly the same as he was back then."
