Chapter 129 Reflection
The dead in the ceremony five years ago.
A pregnant woman who died in childbirth two and a half years ago.
Now, the new born baby...
"...If the Black Sea is used as a mirror."
Bishop Daryl pondered for a moment, and said with a serious expression: "The positions of Fort Rose and Howling White Tower are almost symmetrical."
Obviously, the fat bishop was also persuaded by Salvatore's speculation.
and……
Annan frowned slightly, thinking seriously.
The information he got was actually more than Darryl——
Nottdam's new house, 12 Rusty Water Street, is actually next door to Gerald's dentist's office.
If it weren't for the murder, the great wizard Benjamin should have arrived at the frozen water port. Frozen Water Harbor is only a few hours away from Roseburg.
Plus... Annan who looks exactly like Maria Winter in five years ago.
--what does this mean?
Annan's pupils contracted slightly.
According to Salvatore's intelligence, Michelangelo went awry at the end of the ceremony. And the news that Annan got from the nightmare is... The ceremony will end when there are only four people left no matter what.
Then, the final survivors should be "Michelangelo", "Maria", "Benjamin" and "Gerald".
In other words...
When Michelangelo died five years ago, Maria, Benjamin, and Gerald were all by his side.
And now.
If there is no accident... Except for Maria, who cannot be reproduced, Annan, Benjamin and Gerald should all reunite here.
Annan's brain was spinning rapidly.
Think about it...
If Annan is not the transmigrator himself,
And Benjamin didn't murder, what's the situation now?
- Benjamin and Don Juan will arrive while he is unconscious on the beach. Benjamin, who has seen Maria, will recognize Annan's identity as soon as possible and protect him.
—— Knowing that Benjamin, a well-known great wizard, guards the Frozen Water Harbor, the Viscount would naturally not attack himself with Salvatore's black fire. But the viscount and the captain of the guard Klaus are in the same group, then he will know the identity of Annan.
——In order to deter Don Juan from acting rashly and quietly complete his reincarnation ceremony, he will invite Benjamin, Don Juan and Annan to hold a banquet in the Viscount's mansion.
The Viscount Mansion is adjacent to the old house in Notre Dame.
Just as Notdham's new home is adjacent to Gerald's dentist's office...
"Now that I think about it, something is really wrong."
Salvatore looked at Annan with a serious expression: "His Excellency Notre Dame told us before... If in our battle with Gerald, Gerald wins in the end. Then Notre Dame will Go and invite Gerald, instead of the Viscount, make a friendly gesture to him.
"But we have overlooked one thing. Nottdam is just an ordinary tax collector, not even an extraordinary one. Why did the Viscount send such a person? Is it really just for the sin? Listen to him, he has been in I worked so hard for the Viscount, and I didn't offend the Viscount..."
"He's telling the truth."
Annan took over Salvatore's words and said seriously: "At least Notdam was at a loss when he said those words before.
"He doesn't know why the Viscount is targeting him. But besides that, there is another possibility...
"That is, Notre Dame really knew Gerald. But at 'this time', he didn't know about it."
——If we say that there are two tax collectors, Nottdam, everything can be explained.
Annan remembered that when he was sending Annan and Salvatore back to the Viscount Mansion, he had inadvertently mentioned that his wife, Meris Notedam, was an apprentice of the Black Tower and knew what a reincarnation wizard was. Know about the supernatural.
Salvatore had told Annan that apprentices at the Wizard Tower were generally young people. Once they reach the age of twenty-four and have not learned their first spell, they are usually dismissed because it means they do not have the talent to learn spells.
In the ordinary stage, learning the first spell is the most difficult. This means that they perceive and control a part of the curse, sorting and absorbing it according to complicated and non-contradictory rules. The whole process is roughly similar to programming with your imagination.
And if they have mastered a spell, they are considered to have obtained the profession of "Sorcerer's Apprentice", which is called "Apprentice". They can be allowed to study until they are thirty-six.
By then, they must have learned enough spells. If 12 years have passed and they have not successfully advanced to the Bronze Rank, then it means that they either have a deep understanding of the misfortune of entering the supernatural road in the process of learning, and are afraid of becoming supernatural... or it is their The mind is too stupid to successfully purify even a single nightmare.
Only then will they be dissuaded. Before that, if any apprentice decides to give up the path of the wizard, or no longer wants to step into the supernatural through the path of the wizard, he can leave at any time.
The only constraint is that once you leave, you can't come back.
Melis Notedam is an apprentice to the Black Tower of Zed, which means she must have mastered one to four spells.
And the schools of magic taught by the Black Tower of Zedi are only transformation, shaping, and soul capture. Before Salvatore entered the school, the apprentices who were converted were all killed by Gerald.
In other words, Merris Notedam, probably knew Gerald.
Judging from her age, she is likely to be an apprentice taught by Gerald.
It may even be a chess piece buried before Gerald left the Black Tower of Zedi—
"If I'm not wrong," Annan said slowly, looking at Salvatore, "The key point may be that you closed the doors."
Looking back now, it was weird that all the doors were open from the outermost door to the inside.
And Annan and the two of them walked in from the outside and barely touched anything.
The only thing that moved was that Salvatore, based on his habit, closed the door at will... and closed all the doors.
And after all the doors were closed, the "Noteddams of two and a half years ago" suddenly appeared.
"I suspect it may be the same on the other side."
Annan looked at Bishop Darryl and lowered his head slightly: "Please take a look. Whether this ceremony is related to the opening and closing of the 'door'. Then it is to confirm again... If our previous speculation is correct, then the two Can the 'Notdam' of two different timelines appear at the same time?"
Bishop Darryl's true identity is the cardinal of the Silver Sir.
There is no doubt - although his appearance is not impressive, his strength must be the strongest person Annan has ever seen...or at least the strongest group of people.
This kind of thing, still have to ask the boss to find a way.
It's not cowardice, it's prudence.
"These can be given to me."
Bishop Darryl nodded, not feeling that something was wrong.
If Annan is desperate, he will worry about how to hold Annan and keep him from dying...
It is also a very worry-free thing to have good teammates who do not like to send.
"However, it sounds..."
The fat bishop looked at Annan strangely: "Do you two have other arrangements?"
"yes."
Annan and Salvatore looked at each other and replied: "We plan to go back to the frozen water port to make some preparations. In the next few days, please check the information again to see if the day of dystocia is used as the The dividing line... Then what is the real date of birth. Then you can send someone to notify us a day or two in advance."
"Oh, that's not necessary."
Bishop Darryl smiled, his face not too nervous: "I just did a mental calculation, the final date should be December 14. You two should come back before the evening of the 13th.
"If you two have any plans, go back quickly. I'll take care of the matter on the Viscount's side too...
"Sir Silver is right, things need to be prioritized."
The fat bishop smiled and showed a kind smile:
"It just so happens that those mortals who are obsessed with greed, those petty power struggles... are the most irrelevant ones.
"If they dare to make trouble at this time, I will let them know the price."
