The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 600
I was doing well, I didn't do anything or purify any nightmares, but I was suddenly rewarded with ten marks of holy light by Mr. Skull...

This made Annan very confused and at a loss.

Although this nightmare does contain a lot of "betrayal" elements.

...But the purifier of this nightmare is not Annan.

You old man is not doing business, came here to watch my broadcast... By the way, you also tipped Void.

Judging from the rewards given by the person in the mirror, the amount of rewards is quite a lot.It is half of the person in the mirror.

Is there something wrong with this?
"You don't really want me to be Pope..."

Annan showed a complex look.

Needless to say, Annan is really the holder of the holy deed that betrayed the angel Angelo.In fact, he is one-half of the Pope of the skeleton... although he himself does not want to take this job.

Sensing that the ceremony was over from the back room, Nefertari walked out of the room.

Her expression is a little complicated.

Looking at Annan, Nefertari asked in a low voice: "Is it over?"

"everything is over."

Annan replied.

He looked at Nefertari, who was frowning and restrained, and couldn't help laughing: "You don't have to be like this. This is not your problem, and it doesn't even have anything to do with you."

Annan is not going to push all the people who are slightly close to Trissino to the other side.

Although Nefertari still refers to Trissino as a teacher to this day, they are not on the same side.Nefertari herself is also innocent... She is also the one being used, but her relationship with Trissino is deeper.

Even though she knew that she might be used or even deceived by Trissino, she couldn't completely forget the teacher-student relationship for a while.

This is normal.

If she can completely abandon the old relationship in the blink of an eye, Annan will be wary of her instead.

Rather, everything was just fine.

"Bonesetter Seti, that is, Professor Gray. He is also the soul in the body of the current 'Professor Wolf'."

Annan said slowly: "The two of them are the same person, but they are not using the same name...you understand what I mean."

"……I see."

Nefertari nodded slightly.

She even knew more than Annan.

Idol's self-sliced ​​name—it's not Tricino Seti's first, and it's not even bothersome.It's just that the name that has been cut out can still survive...it's not easy.

Normally, the split name would become a lifeless spell.I can use these spells at any time to switch my mind.

She hesitated for a moment, but made up her mind.

"Teacher, he...isn't actually a native underground man."

Nefertari said softly: "He grew up in the Theocracy... and he graduated from the Tower of Mystery of Thousand Faces. When he was a silver-ranked great wizard, he also served as a 'croupier' for several years. "

"...The Illusory Tower of Thousand Faces?"

Annan frowned slightly, and murmured in a low voice, "No wonder."

He knew that the spell that splits the name and identity was inherited from [Thousand Faces Illusory Tower].

This is the wizard's tower that primarily teaches the School of Idols and the School of Shaping... but it's not known as a wizard's tower.

Except for wizards, other extraordinary people and ordinary people call it the "Tower of Lies".

And the apprenticeship period in this wizard tower was extremely long.

As long as you don't advance to the silver level, you will always be an "apprentice".And when you reach the silver level, you have to serve the wizard tower for several years before you can leave.

——It was a wizard tower as dangerous as the "Forbidden Lava Tower".

Compared with the Illusory Tower of Thousand Faces, the Black Tower of the Swamp, which exists in the depths of the poisonous swamp full of methane, is even considered a safe zone.

Except for the Zedi Black Tower, Jade Tower and Azure Diamond Tower, the other wizard towers are more or less dangerous.

The most dangerous thing is to destroy the most mainstream inheritance of the school - Lava Forbidden Tower.

If the apprentices of the lava forbidden tower are too close to the core area, they may be killed by the spell aftermath of the high-ranking wizard at any time; if they are too far away, they may be licked and swallowed by the activated magma elements; There will be a classmate who suddenly realizes something...and then explodes.

And the classmates who sat with this enlightened classmate would die at random.

The Tower of Thousand Faces is not as dangerous as in the Lava Forbidden Tower, but it is about the same.

That is the Wizard Tower that inherits the ["Dark Side" of Wisdom].

Mentors, or "dealers" teach apprentices not just spells.And intrigue, trickery, murder, fraud.

It is not only used as a teaching institution, but also an "entertainment place".It attracts many gamblers who are eager to "change their fate against the sky".

It is a life casino where you can use your own "luck", "span", "loyalty" and other illusory things as bets or rewards to gamble or trade with others.

In addition to a complete ban on "direct attacks" of any kind.

Whether it is using rituals to curse the other party, using soul-destroying spells to increase the favor and trust of others, or using shaping spells to become another person, using prophetic spells to predict the future, and other tricks to make a difference in the game— —As long as it is not discovered and exposed by the other party, it is allowed.

The Magic Tower of Thousand Faces has only three absolute rules.

First, the chips of each game must be of equal value, that is, the chips of both parties must be judged to be of the same value by the wizard tower before the game can be played; and only apprentices can initiate gambling, while outsiders can only choose to accept or not.

Second, outsiders entering the Tower of Illusion of Thousand Faces must win at least one gamble before they can leave; and if any kind of debts of outsiders are not settled, they will never be able to leave the Tower of Illusion of Thousand Faces.

Third, all wizards belonging to the Tower of Thousand Faces, whether they are apprentices or "croupiers", must wear "masks" when they are in the Tower of Thousand Faces.

It's some sort of protection mechanism.

As long as others find that they are "not wearing a mask" and report to the tower owner for verification, they will be immediately deprived of the status of "apprentice" or "dealer" and regarded as "outsiders".

Apprentices can leave the Tower of Thousand Faces at any time, but they cannot come back after leaving; and if an apprentice reaches the silver level, he can choose to become a "dealer", that is, a mentor.

"Dealers" cannot participate in any form of gambling as initiators or responders, but each game must have at least one dealer present as a supervisor.According to the prior agreement of the three parties, the croupier can draw any percentage of the winner - usually around 5%, but there are a few exceptions.

When the croupier leaves the Magic Tower of Thousand Faces, he needs to send the mask back, and pay himself "one-third of the chips he won this time" as a deposit for the mask, and he can still receive the mask when he returns next time.

Otherwise, the next time you return, you will be treated as an outsider.

Generally speaking, the Tower of Thousand Faces is a sacred place for wizard apprentices to deceive outsiders and use their wisdom to plunder their life, luck, memory, skills and other illusory things to grow themselves.

That's where smart people with bad intentions go.

But it would be false to say that there is no deception between apprentice wizards at all—apprentice wizards can also initiate a "duel" like other apprentice wizards, as long as the other party is willing to accept, they can still gamble.

The only thing that is absolutely fair is just a "chip".

There are even a few gods who "play" in the Tower of Thousand Faces and also follow the rules.Because the chips provided by both parties must be of equal value, unless it is the top, otherwise it is still very safe for the gods.

In order to prevent some gods from getting angry, the Holy See of "Miss Luck", one of the twelve righteous gods, was built at the entrance of the Tower of Thousand Faces.

In other words... the entrance to the Tower of Thousand Faces is in the backyard of Miss Lucky's house.

"...Including the 'tragedy writer' himself, he has been waiting in the Tower of Thousand Faces for a long time, pretending to be an outsider. Waiting for the blind apprentices to start a gamble with him. Naturally, there is no camaraderie among the apprentices of the Magic Tower... ...The seniors are also happy to watch this kind of excitement."

Nefertari said so.

The usual image of a tragedy writer is a middle-aged werewolf who is obsessed with gambling or drinking, wears a purple robe, smells of alcohol, and has a decadent and sloppy face.

If we say, when did Tricino Seti begin to believe in tragic writers...

"—that can only be then."
