A strange world

Chapter 1061 Section 292. Under the prophecy

Annan felt that his guess was very close to the truth...

But there is no reason why the mysterious wizard who could come up with such a good thing as the Fruit of Corruption and predict the future could not predict that he would interfere, right? Or did the mysterious man think that he would give the thing to Barbatod?

Annan didn't think so, because he thought of a suitable candidate.

In front of the little bat, Anan opened the portal to the kingdom of the dead and asked the Skeleton King if he needed the Fruit of Corruption.

The Skeleton King declined, and the little bat was secretly discussing Anan's behavior of giving away treasures casually-why not give it to himself?

"I'm glad you remembered me, but I don't need it."

The Skeleton King nodded to the uncomfortable little bat and continued: "Coldness and death have become a part of me. Without these, my power will disappear together."

"Okay..."

It seems that the Skeleton King is not the "correct answer".

After thinking about it, Anan had to take the Fruit of Corruption to the dungeon to meet Barbatod.

"I... I have said everything I should say..." Babatod looked bitter.

Annan did not come here to continue to exploit Babatod: "I got the fruit of corruption"

"What fruit of corruption..."

"Something left for you by a mysterious person."

Babatod's eyes lit up, and he remembered that the thing was in Annan's hands, and he became disappointed again: "What is the use of this fruit?"

"It is to turn the lich into an undead. Do you have a secret that can transform the lich?"

Babatod did not answer. He seemed to think of something, and he was stunned there, with emotions between ecstasy and loss, joy and sadness constantly squeezed out of his face.

After a long time, he regained his composure.

"What did you think of?" Annan asked.

Babatod sat there quietly, regaining a bit of his former temperament: "You are not a ratman, right?"

Annan did not comment.

"It's okay to tell you... Do you know the second prince?"

"He also colluded with the ratman?" Annan was surprised. This Rekanel Palace was simply rotten to the core.

"What..." Babatod quickly denied: "No, no, he is very clean. The ratmen just can't do anything to him, so they turn to support the eldest prince."

"His life box is in the empire. We just need to send the fruit of corruption to revive him, and everything will get better..."

Annan looked at him: "Like you said before, you and the king joined forces with the ratmen to kill him. Why do you think he will save you after getting the thing?"

Babatod was a little amused: "Because I gave him the life box..."

You can say that Babatod still has some conscience, or you can say that he is betting on both sides. While working for the ratmen, he also left a seed for the royal family.

So here comes the question.

"If the mysterious man thinks that the Fruit of Corruption can save you, but it is in my hands... why should I give it to the second prince?"

Babatod said: "You have plundered all the wealth I have accumulated, isn't it enough?"

Annan shook his head: "I know how to count. One Fruit of Corruption is worth one Arcane Energy Core, your wealth is not worth it."

"Master Olme, you and the Councillor are loyal to the kingdom, and Vitalig is the only clean royal family."

That's true, but Annan is not Master Olme. He has no loyalty to the kingdom, only hatred.

"Can the kingdom accept a dead soul taking over the country?"

"It's better than being taken over by the rat puppets and being destroyed." Babatod said desperately.

"I need to think about it..."

Annan and Vitalig have some friendship, but it is limited to some small favors they helped in Xingyue Bay. Talling Lilith and Asimov... wait a minute!

Annan suddenly remembered that Asimov's soul also came with Vitalig's life box.

Asimov is a prophecy school, and the mysterious man is also a prophecy school...

The mysterious man said that the fruit of corruption will save Babatod, and after he helped Vitalig to resurrect, Vitalig is indeed likely to let him go...

Talling Lilith is the reward that Asimov paid to Annan in advance, asking him to hand over the fruit of corruption to Vitalig in three years.

Is this impossible...?

When Asimov sent the phylactery to Xingyue Bay, Annan thought they had no way out, but if they really had no way out, why didn't they go to the Empire, but to himself who was still a small lord at that time?

But he predicted the future three years later...?

Annan hurriedly left the dungeon without saying a word and ran to the Purification Court Tower.

"What else!"

Kyle began to miss Babatod, at least he would not disturb him for no reason.

"Let me tell you a secret."

"Secrets are good, I like secrets."

Kyle's complaints were gone, and he listened quietly to Annan telling the story of himself, Vitalig, and Asimov.

"Finally, I got the fruit of corruption and connected everything."

"As expected of the former director of the Great Library..." The little bat sighed.

"Is this magic?" Annan couldn't help asking.

"Why not magic?"

"He predicted the future and knew all my actions..."

Does this mean that his life is being manipulated?

Kyle pondered for a moment: "I'm not surprised that you think so, but prophecy is not as omnipotent as you think. Asimov only saw certain nodes in the future."

"For example, I predict you now, I see what you do, see you return to Liberty City, and see you give me a lot of money."

"Why should I give you money?"

"For example!"

But Annan understood what the little bat wanted to say. Knowing that his fate was not determined like in the book made Annan feel much better.

"But Mr. Asimov is really amazing. I'm afraid he was not far from being a legend at that time." Kyle sighed at his acquaintance.

Annan was thinking, if he didn't give Vitalig, would he break Asimov's prophecy?

But just as the prophecy was only a fragment of the future, everything was still driven by will: Annan was hard to do a treacherous act after getting the tower spirit reward that was more precious than the arcane energy core in advance.

Asimov was really good at judging people.

"I'll ask Montreal Mountain." Annan made a decision.

"Here?" The little bat said in a daze.

"What else? Only you are the safest here."

Kyle always felt that something was wrong, as if his relationship with Annan was getting deeper and deeper...

On the other side, Annan had opened the portal to Montreal Mountain.

"Olin, this is Little Bat, the legendary wizard. Little Bat, this is Olin, the imperial royal family."

After introducing each other, Annan and Olin told each other what happened: "I need Vitalig's phylactery."

"Vitalig's phylactery is in the Royal School of Magic."

"Can you bring it out?"

"I'm afraid not... The School of Magic is guarding it, and no one is allowed to get close, not even me."

"What about sending the Fruit of Corruption?"

"I don't see that the Royal School of Magic wants to revive Vitalig." Olin said bluntly.

This is troublesome...

When Annan was at a loss, a shadow condensed by light quietly appeared beside him, picked up the wooden box containing the Fruit of Corruption, and whispered: "Leave it to me."

Annan's black eyes suddenly shrank.

"Senator?!"
