Chapter 121 Anchor
received so much information.
And it is completely different from the education and information that I have received... or even the complete opposite.
Whether Nefertari became bewildered by unacceptable, or hysterical in despair because of being deceived so far, or simply didn't believe their words - it was understandable.
Annan and Benjamin have already made corresponding preparations.
But they didn't expect...
Nefertari accepted all this calmly.
"...is that true?"
She murmured in a low voice.
There was a bright fire in his eyes.
"You had expected this?"
Annan asked with interest.
- You didn't say that before.
Nefertari just shook his head.
"No," she looked at Annan and replied seriously, "To be precise, after we came out of the nightmare... From then on, I suddenly felt a sense of disobedience.
"Although I didn't directly become superhuman because I got power from nightmares. But I also seemed to get something out of it. It greatly strengthened my intuition."
Nefertari stretched out his slender right index finger and pointed to his temple, with a calm expression, but he just bit his lip slightly: "Although the teacher has lied to me a lot... but the talent I have cultivated has not been in vain. My mind doesn't get stupid because of it.
"And after I woke up, I immediately took the potion to strengthen my thinking ability. Although I almost forgot about the scene in the nightmare, I instinctively had some kind of doubt about the teacher at that time... I believe me own intuition.
"I must have seen something."
Nefertari said solemnly: "It can make me doubt the teacher, which means that it must be violently contrary to something I know. Even if I forget that thing, since this feeling Remaining in my heart...that's the 'trace' left by me in the past, and it's also the 'clue' that made me suspicious."
"That's the power of [understanding]."
Annan replied.
He said slowly: "There is no curse power in this nightmare, but it can directly give people the adaptability of the [comprehension] element. That is to say, it can directly allow a person who does not have extraordinary talent to directly obtain Tickets to the Golden Tier."
"I see."
Nefertari nodded: "Not everyone can extract elements from their own soul. Strong and pure desire itself is also a talent.
"This represents the 'directivity' of people... This is also the research result of the teacher. Damn, I should have thought of it..."
People's thoughts are scattered and their desires are changeable. It is ordinary people who are distracted and unable to control themselves... Exuberant desires themselves will get out of control.
The ability to always solidify desire in a certain direction, and to move forward in a fixed direction by virtue of desire, is the adaptability of elements.
For example, those "painting demons", "qin demons", or "people who go into trouble for power", "people who will do whatever it takes for justice", the "desire" of such people is the qualification for advanced gold.
It can indeed form the day after tomorrow.
But most of them cannot be artificially cultivated.
No matter how weak a mortal, as long as someone gives a perfect strategy and a ritualist or cleric stabilizes their minds, they can clear the nightmare and become a superhuman. After that, as long as you keep feeding "Nightmare with Raiders", you can easily upgrade all the way.
At least until the realm of silver rank, it can be piled up through resources.
Those little wizards who study in the wizard tower basically just want to become a big wizard and change their lives.
But there are some people whose lives do not need to be changed by the power gained by the extraordinary.
——Not all those in power will not become extraordinary.
It's just that they know more than ordinary people.
They knew from the very beginning... the golden rank requires talent.
Whether you have this kind of talent can be called "whether you have the talent of an extraordinary person".
Take Annan's brother Dmitry, for example.
He knew for a long time that he was unlikely to have the elements to adapt and hope that no matter how strong he was, he would only become a lunatic.
Since it is impossible to advance to the golden level, there is no possibility of sublimation into a god.
Then there is really no need to become a superhuman.
"Directiveness...?"
Thinking of this, Annan was silent for a moment.
He and Nefertari looked at each other, and his eyes became heavy.
He finally figured it out.
Trishino the "Dream Eater", the "Bright Dreams" he devoured as sacrifices...what are they?
——That is the "ability to awaken the element" itself.
Those children, their first bright dreams were changed. They also become mediocre as a result... The biggest difference here is probably that their original "elemental fitness" was plundered by Trissino.
It is indeed a very precious "sacrifice".
Although a child with this kind of talent may not have a high chance of embarking on the path of transcendence - one in ten of them will choose this path, and it is even rarer to live to the silver level. At that time, if the original intention has not changed, another batch will be screened out... After all, even if Trisino doesn't do it, the "beginning intention" itself may change.
And if they can go through these many ups and downs, they can reach the position of dyeing. Become a true superhero.
"In this case, the reason why Justus suddenly upgraded from mortal to golden rank in five years has been found."
Nefertari said seriously: "It is impossible for a normal person to advance so quickly—"
Hearing this, a silent plate of Longjing tea suddenly raised its head and glanced silently at the cat sitting on Annan's lap.
Annan didn't change his color, there was nothing unusual.
"And he has almost no obstacles from the silver level to the gold level. At first I thought it was Justus who was outstanding. Now it seems that it may be like a brother..."
Speaking of which, Nefertari paused.
Annan understood what she meant.
If we say, "thief saint" Alfonso, is "artificial saint".
Then Justus may be the "artificial golden order".
From the nightmare, Annan has already seen it.
Lianeng messenger is not the family profession of Justus at all, nor is it a career transfer mastered by "Professor Gray". It was the occupation held by Justus' childhood sweetheart "Alison", the eldest lady who married him.
Justus himself also has the talent to become an extraordinary person, at least not likely to be looked down upon by his father-in-law. In fact, his father-in-law has even begun to prepare to find a mortal son-in-law... How could such a person pick on Justus? Not to mention that they were childhood sweethearts, and even Justus, whom Alison chased back.
Alison's family even has a strong curse that has been passed down from generation to generation. In other words, they don't actually need a "powerful son-in-law", but an "heir".
This shows that they must have the corresponding training knowledge of the extraordinary.
-Then here comes the problem.
Since Justus was not the one who went to Professor Gray for the reason of "not worthy of his childhood sweetheart's family".
Why did he go to the Grey Tower to study?
What can he learn?
Professor Gray is not a stalker at all, nor is he a courier. It is even less possible for him to have the golden rank professional inheritance of the courier's direct promotion... and Allison's family needs only the successor, and the silver rank is the best situation.
Advanced to gold, but may be short-lived, unable to leave more children.
Therefore, it is impossible for Alison to let Justus advance to the golden level.
- Then the answer is self-evident.
What Professor Gray gave him was some kind of "elemental power" that had already hatched.
It's like the [understanding] that Annan and Nefertari got.
It directly adds a talent out of thin air.
Like [Understanding], the intuitions of Annan and Nefertari were sharpened.
The elements that Justus got will definitely change his behavior and thinking habits——
"Everything is right."
Annan looked at Nefertari.
Only Nefertari is special.
There are two possibilities here.
"...Or, it's because you refuse to become a superhuman. You may not have the talent for 'element' power. After all, your reaction after getting [understanding] is much greater than mine, and this possibility is not too low. "
Annan narrowed his eyes: "But in this case, it means that... your specialness was decided 'before admission'.
"Then there is a second possibility—"
"—My value is because I don't have this talent, and I don't want to be extraordinary."
Nefertari continued.
She made a low and somewhat magnetic voice: "I am an 'anchor'.
"—It's Seti the Bone Healer, a real proof of his existence in the world."
