[Comprehensive Classics] Killing the Classics

Anya has never seen the true face of the system, and it seems too rash to conclude that this is the system.But after this idea broke into her mind, it became lingering.

She held up her long, hanging hair to keep it from touching the board.Under the sunlight, the mysterious substance on the wooden board shone brightly.About an inch or so in front of it, the strange pattern stopped spreading, as if it was stopped by some mysterious force.

This is the system?But why...

Anya glanced at the place where Claude and Quasimodo disappeared.In the blink of an eye, she seemed to understand something.

Claude trapped Belle with the alchemy formation set up in this room, and stripped the system attached to her soul; and this board cannot be written by Claude, he will never make the system like this Escaped easily... Then, Quasimodo was the one who did it?

As the adopted son of the archdeacon, Quasimodo has been with him for so many years, so it is understandable that he knows some alchemy methods.But why did he mess with the vicar's affairs?Anya didn't believe there was no reason for this.

In fact, the feeling between the archdeacon himself and Quasimodo is also a bit strange... With her own sensitivity to distinguish people's hearts, Anya found that Claude really hated Quasimodo, and even wished for him to disappear , but never acted with his own powerful strength. Even last time, when Quasimodo was tortured, Anya was asked to deliver things instead of him... And what about Quasimodo?To Claude is simply obedient.

According to Gringoire, the archdeacon himself was kind, that's why he adopted the ugly Quasimodo; however, the experience of the past few days has overturned this view.If Claude was really kind, he wouldn't have thought of killing Anya and pulling the system out of her soul alive.

Quasimodo's tolerance for Claude also seemed weird. He seemed to be restraining himself not to hurt Claude, but since he dared to secretly destroy the alchemy circle and rescue the system from the house today, he would It means that he and Claude are not in the same mind...but why?As an abandoned baby with a disability, shouldn't Quasimodo be very dependent on Claude?

Reminiscent of Claude's body odor that cannot be concealed, the truth seems to be about to come out.Anya couldn't find the answer.This matter may be answered by asking Claude or Quasimodo alone, but Claude's attitude is unpredictable. Since he dared to use the point of answering Anya's question to deceive her into a trap, he may not be able to truly fulfill it now. Own promise; and Quasimodo?Maybe the boards just got in by accident?Maybe he was just playing with the archdeacon?

Anya dared not take risks.

However, the shining things on the wooden board are too eye-catching.Anya stretched out her hand again and again, and withdrew her hand again and again.After finally getting out of danger, if she is boarded by the system again and found by Claude...

The breeze blew past Anya's ears slowly.She squatted anxiously in front of the door, not knowing what to choose.She doesn't want to be restricted by anyone...

There seemed to be some smell of rotting corpses in the wind, and Anya was so sick that she almost wanted to vomit.Claude's face flashed in her mind, and Quasimodo's clean eyes appeared again... After a moment of hesitation, she finally stretched out her hand to the board.

The bone-cold liquid touched Anya's fingers, and slowly squirmed around her fingertips.After a while, Anya's fingers felt a tingling pain, and a drop of blood fell from her index finger.The transparent and invisible liquid "swallowed" the drop of blood, and crawled along the wound into Anya's finger.Anya couldn't help shivering violently. The coldness spread from her fingertips and gradually spread to her whole body... She gritted her teeth and stretched out her hand, pulled the wooden board out, and staggered down the stairs.

After the wooden planks left the door gap, the grain on the whole cabin returned to its original appearance.Anya casually threw it into a dark corner, went down a few more steps, and finally lost her strength and fell down on the stairs.

The unbearable biting cold seemed to spread from the body to the soul. Anya seemed to have returned to the time when she was floating in the river of consciousness. Every time she tried to think, she would feel an unbearable sting.She held her hands tightly, opened her mouth and screamed silently, but seemed to have difficulty even breathing... She didn't dare to make any movement, for fear of attracting Claude's attention.However, if Quasimodo is really doing it for the sake of making trouble, or for her...he will definitely hold Claude as long as possible...

Anya tried her best to think, even though she was tortured by severe pain, she tried her best to keep herself awake.The smell of rotting corpses, mysterious liquids, strange emotional changes... Who is Claude? Anya has completely lost her desire to know.She just wanted to leave this world quickly... But since she couldn't leave, it proves that the task has not been completed... Among the four, Phoebus has already entered the full set, Gringoire has been ruled out, and Quasimodo Then there is no such possibility at all... Then the rest, the rest is...

Anya began to regret like never before, why did she choose to trust Claude in the first place?That's right, it's because of power... Anya feared and coveted his powerful power, so she decided to cooperate.As for Claude, he didn't pay attention to Anya's life and death from the beginning to the end, and it was also because he possessed great power... Under such circumstances, how could Anya complete the mission and win?Claude is not an outsider like her at all, but has existed in the body of the deputy bishop from the beginning...

Suddenly, it seemed as if something had been shattered.All the pain disappeared in an instant, Anya opened her eyes, and a white mist drifted past her eyes.This place looks familiar... This is... her consciousness space?

In the entire space, wherever the eyes can see, it is filled with white mist, which makes people feel warm and comfortable.Anya stretched out her hand, wanting to touch the fog in front of her eyes, but was surprised to see her fingers turned transparent.

In the depths of her consciousness, something seemed to be calling her.

Anya involuntarily obeyed the call and walked forward.

Claude came down from the bell tower, followed by Quasimodo.It can be seen that this conversation was not pleasant, because it is obvious that Claude's mood is arrogant now, but his behavior is full of anger.

Quasimodo followed behind in a submissive manner, acting the same as before.As they passed the hut, Quasimodo's one eye glanced at the door, and seeing the board disappear, he opened his mouth and laughed soundlessly behind the priest's back.

Claude walked to the middle of the stairs and saw Anya. She seemed to be bored because of the long wait, and she was leaning on the handrail to look out at the building of Notre Dame.

Because of his bad mood, Claude's tone of voice was also very bad: "What are you still doing there, miss? Stay there and wait for the Gondlaurier family to see that you are safe and sound?"

Anya glanced at him in surprise and shook her head: "I don't know what else I can do now. How are you going to arrange me?"

"Quasimodo, take her to find a place to live." Claude turned to the bell ringer, said coldly, and then added as if remembering something, "Stay away from that room, no matter what It's you or her."

Quasimodo stared at Claude's lips with one eye, and nodded slowly after the archdeacon finished speaking.

Anya frowned, with a disgusted expression: "Why did you let him arrange me? What if he let me live next to him?"

Claude sneered and said: "Your worry is completely unnecessary, the only thing Quasimodo will fall in love with is his big clock. Even if Frollo or Quasimodo is tempted by anyone, it will only be Esmera Da." After finishing speaking, he turned and left without looking back.

Anya pursed her lips.Unfortunately, she happens to be Esmeralda right now.And did the archdeacon forget that he asked her to deliver water to Quasimodo earlier, which just matched the description in the original book?

And Quasimodo... It seems that he is not what the archdeacon thinks he is.

Quasimodo led the way silently, his deformed body possessed peculiar agility.Anya followed behind him, constantly looking at his back.

The unknown object just now was indeed a system, and after the system merged into Anya's soul, although she didn't get her memory back, she accidentally merged with the system.The timing of Quasimodo's actions was a bit subtle. Most of the information in the system disappeared, and most of the original books only remained in fragments. The memories of the hosts that the system had experienced before were completely gone. No longer useful, for example, for jumping between worlds.

And now that Anya has become the system itself, it can be regarded as unexpectedly possessing a magical ability.Her calculation ability is more outstanding than before, and many subtle places can be quickly noticed and added to the analysis... She can also pretend to be a system and issue tasks to the "travelers", so that they can help her without knowing it... ...if you still meet "travelers".

What satisfied Anya the most was that if she failed to seize the body, she could change another body under the option of the system.This greatly reduces the chances of her mission failing.

In other words, if a suitable body could be found, Anya could escape from the vice-bishop.Regardless of whether it was the secret that the archdeacon inadvertently revealed, or the temptation just now, Anya had already confirmed that Claude could not actually feel the existence of the system autonomously.

After thinking more quickly and clearly, Anya realized another problem... Who is Quasimodo?

There is no doubt that Quasimodo will not be her enemy.But he has no hostility towards Claude at all... So, if she really confronted Claude, how would Quasimodo choose?

Quasimodo has secrets, and there are many secrets from Claude... for example, that he can hear.

After confirming that she was far enough away from the archdeacon, Anya looked at Quasimodo's back and asked softly, "Quasimodo, who are you?"
