The Righteous Player(s)

Hugo is not closely related to the gods. Those who know that Annan is a crown block are basically righteous gods, false gods, or people directly related to gods.

Even if it is a god, it is impossible to know anything that has nothing to do with him. Their ability to grasp Annan's intelligence is related to the connection between "Black Annan" and the righteous gods during the week.

Logically speaking, the owner of the Hugo Pagoda shouldn't know that Annan is a crane.

But Annan quickly realized...this should be the Hugo that Bernardino told. The relationship between them does not seem to be completely hostile.

Just as Annan explained to Shisanxiang before—the young wizards’ friends are basically based on “talent”. Because there is too much difference in talents, there will hardly be any intersection in the lives of the two people after graduation.

Considering that Hugo and Bernardino both became the golden rank in the future. And they are about the same age.

Maybe they were in a good relationship when they were young... but as they grew older, they eventually took the opposite path.

"...Since the books of the crown block have been collected, it means that the light of the seventh lunar is finally coming."

Hugo was silent for a long, long time before whispering: "Unfortunately, I couldn't catch up."

Annan knew what he was talking about.

With Hugo's desire and ability, he should have been recognized by the Book of Truth long ago. But just like the reason Annan came here-the old truths stored in the crown block are no longer enough to be compiled into a book.

But... it's too late.

If he hadn't fought with Bernardino, he might be able to wait until Annan completed the sublimation ceremony. As long as Annan is sublimated into a new crown block, he will definitely be able to get the shards of truth in the first place... and immediately promote to the rank of truth.

Even if one becomes a god, it is only a matter of time before gaining eternal life and immortal authority.

But it was too late.

"I can live up to two more months."

The lanky ghost said calmly: "This is a maximum. Because the soul is emptied, after about forty days, I will gradually lose my mind because of the lack of soul.

"Even if you can immediately become the golden rank and quickly ascend... it is too late. The remaining life of me is not enough for me to gather all the books of truth.

"In other words...I can't keep up."

Hugo is about the same level as the man in the mirror.

Whether it is talent, desire or anything else, it is the highest line.

The difference between them is that the person in the mirror can put down the inheritance of the White Tower of the Wind—using the inheritance of the Wizard Tower as a bait to lure other wizards to help themselves complete the sublimation ceremony.

For the person in the mirror, it is undoubtedly worthwhile to use his life, future, dignity, inheritance of the wizard tower and everything he can give to verify the correctness of his ritual.

This ritual was originally invented by Skeleton and once used by corrupt husbands. People in the mirror think it has room for optimization. But this kind of ritual to replace the Book of Truth can only be completed by the highest of the golden ranks, who have completed all the accomplishments except for the "prototype of truth".

There is no possibility of his theory being practiced.

The person in the mirror thinks-it's better to experiment with yourself.

Fortunately, he finally succeeded.

If he failed at that time... I am afraid his soul would have been floating in the gap between life and death, entangled in the pain of immortality for life. Until I was tortured to forget everything and became a resentful soul that never rested.

For the person in the mirror, he is first a wizard, a ritualist, and secondly the master of the tower.

But for Hugo, this is the opposite.

He is the master of the tower first-a wizard second.

It was only later that Annan learned from Salvatore... the sacred fire that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Black Tower of Zedi, and it even has characteristics similar to the Stone of the Sage.

It can directly use "wisdom" as fuel.

This means... if the Hugo Tower Master at that time could be cruel and burn all the wizards of Zedi Black Tower to death.

Not only will they not be the material for Bernardino to make the "Sage's Stone".

On the contrary, the soul of the tower master Hugo could be burned... easily defeated Bernardino.

But Hugo Tower Master, in the end, still failed to be cruel.

He would rather watch the wizards he taught, be killed by Bernardino, and then go to Bernardino desperately... and he was reluctant to burn them to death in advance as his "fuel".

"Sister Vattore" thought this was a senseless act of weakness.

She believes that it is human "feelings" that restrained the Hugo Pagoda Master and made him make judgments that were not rational enough and should not belong to the superiors.

But both Annan and Salvatore believe that the Hugo Tower is correct.

Although in terms of results, you can undoubtedly get better results if you start by yourself... But not everything in the world can see the results~www.wuxiaspot.com~ This is a typical tram problem.

If it is only for the "better fruit", one will personally deprive some people of their lives to save others. In fact, it is to transform oneself into a balance and the supreme judge, instead of Tianli to judge right and wrong.

That is undoubtedly an act of arrogance.

The fundamental reason is that these students and tutors are not the "property" of the Hugo Pagoda master. He has no right to sacrifice what is not his own to save others.

They can indeed choose to sacrifice themselves, but Hugo cannot sacrifice for them. Although in terms of outcome, there is no difference... But killing people for the sake of saving is still different from saving people for the sake of killing.

It is precisely because of this that Annan will sit here calmly, discussing with the Hugo Tower master "something that cannot be heard by Salvatore for the time being".

"I'm sorry, I can't help you."

Annan slowly said, "It's too late... it's too late."

There is no guilt in his voice, but a real and rational regret.

It's not because Salvatore's mentor lost the opportunity to become a god.

But this world has lost a reliable "living pillar".

Annan was sorry for the world.

"It doesn't matter."

Hugo just shook his head, and took his own death indifferently: "A person is alive to die. Even if I can't become a god, it doesn't mean that my life is meaningless.

"The fire is passed down from generation to generation-as long as the first flame is still burning until the end, we who are in the middle of the "fire follower" are valuable.

"I invite you... to seek a certain possibility."

He said seriously: "Do you know, Your Majesty. The next generation of [Fire Stealers] should have been inherited by Benjamin Foster."
