The Whispering Verses Chapter 1852: Amazing talent
Chapter 1852 Amazing Talent
In the town with thick fog floating under the night outside the window, the miserable howls of evil spirits made the deep night even more weird. The firelight dancing in the indoor fireplace did not make the two people talking feel happy.
Laplace Klein Howard, wearing a monocle, stared at Shad:
"So, are you Shad Hamilton?"
Xia De still didn’t answer:
"Is [Impermanence and Space] in your hands?"
The fortune teller shook his head again:
"I'm looking for it too, but I don't have the honor, at least not yet. Want to play a game of Rhodes?"
This sentence is usually said by Shade to others.
"I came out to find someone this time, but I didn't bring my own deck."
In fact, I brought it with me, but whether I use the spare blank deck or my real deck, my identity will be exposed.
"It doesn't matter, I can lend you a deck of cards. We will only play one round, and whether we win or lose, I can tell you a piece of news."
He handed Shade the deck, which contained no special cards. And there are actually 13 special cards in his own deck.
There was no need to shuffle the cards and check each other, they just put the deck on the coffee table under the light of the fireplace and drew cards together.
The two did not communicate, they just squinted at the suit of cards in their hands.
Laplace Howard drew two cards and stopped:
"The King."
He reveals the second card.
Xia De drew three cards:
"Blackjack, I won."
He showed the sun 1, the stars 10 and the moon 10.
The fortune teller was not disappointed and threw his cards on the table:
"I want to tell you that the end is coming and the world is going to end. This is not a ridiculous prophecy, this is reality."
Xia De asked dissatisfiedly:
"Is this why you came here to talk to me?
What kind of secret is this? You are not the first person I have met who thinks he has seen the future. I have certainly heard of the end of the world. The chosen one with crazy knowledge and wisdom today probably has many things in common with you. ”
The fortune teller signaled him to be patient:
"Then do you know when the end will come?"
"I don't know, do you know?"
"I don't know either."
"you"
"No one knows the specific time, but it's very close, really very close. In addition to you and me, there are many people who are already silently preparing for that day, even the world is at the end At this moment, a special individual like the princess was born. Her existence is not a conspiracy of anyone or any existence. Her birth is just the last choice before the end of the world. It is a natural phenomenon.
He looked at Shade, and there was no madness in his eyes, so this was definitely not an ordinary madman:
"I have never regarded myself as a savior, just like you don't seem to simply want to change the world.
Beyond you and me, before you and I were born, preparations for the last day had already begun. We are not the only ones who can know the future, and we are definitely not the only ones who are willing to pay and sacrifice and have already taken action. Ring magicians pride themselves on seeing more than ordinary people, but they don't know that what they see is just the surface of the lake. We are the ones who can see the truth of the world. ”
Xia De frowned:
"Although you seem to have said a lot, there is no substantive content in it. I am not playing cards with you just to listen to what you say. Please tell me specifically what preparations people made in the past, What is so special about Lecia Cavendish?"
The fortune teller nodded:
"I can't say this now, but this is my bargaining chip when I face you. People only think that I am very powerful, but they don't know that as long as you want, you can completely eliminate me even if I am not in front of you now. ”
This diviner is still quite capable, but Shade is unwilling to waste his divinity. Moreover, he cannot rely on divinity for everything. It is not a power within the rules, and he should not interfere too much in this world. Moreover, the road to the sublimation of the twelve divinities still has a long way to go before it reaches the end. Foreigners have this caution.
"However, I can indeed say something substantive. Do you feel that this is really the sixth era?"
Xia De looked at him, his eyes were very strong, but his expression did not change at all:
"You don't want to tell me that it's still the fifth era, right? If that's true, both of us are actually witches?"
The fortune teller laughed at Shade's little joke:
“I didn’t realize this at all when I was in the Thirteenth Ring, but when I listened to the truth from [The Door in the Bottle], and continued to make various attempts in the past two hundred years, trying to communicate with time and space, I unexpectedly There was a discovery."
The crackling sound of the burning flame was once again suppressed by the cry of the space distortion in the distance outside the window, and the two pairs of eyes looked at each other powerfully:
"I still have some talents. Of course, it is also possible that I followed my destiny and walked towards the path of the chosen one, so I saw more. However, I am still not sure whether it is an illusion, nor whether it is me. Really crazy."
He smiled:
"Looking at your expression, you seem to think I'm really crazy. I don't have the slightest evidence for the truth of time. I only rely on imagination and experience. I just discovered that the first time in an accident happened There seems to be an annihilated time and space between the fifth era and our current era.”
"Hmm, so you are actually the chosen one of time?"
"You have a great sense of humor."
He continued, looking at Shade with inquiring eyes, as if he wanted to see something from his expression:
"If my crazy and unprovable point of view is correct, then it means that someone has tried and failed, so there is this second chance. The end is coming The day cannot be restored by the strength of one person, nor can it be solved by completing the poem of murmuring poems.
Did those departed ancient gods and gods really just go to sleep? I know a lot, and because I know a lot, I can’t stop, I have to do something, I have to, I have to”
His voice became lower and lower until it was drowned out by the crackle of the fire in the fireplace.
Both sides were silent for a long time before Xia Decai suddenly said:
"So, you actually want to cooperate with me?"
"Yes, and it's not us, it's everyone. The dangers in the future need to be borne by everyone. And my ritual, the Edwards Den Magic, will be my most important attempt."
"As long as you can give up being the chosen one in space and giving up fusing your descendants, I can consider cooperating with you. You know many things, and this is what I need."
What he said was half true and half false. Laplace Klein Howard shook his head in disappointment:
"I know you have your thoughts, but I also have mine. I won't say 'sacrifice is necessary', something that only the villain in the story would say, but do you really think that change can happen without sacrifice? , don’t you have to pay anything to save our world? You don’t look like such a saint.”
"I just think that I'm on the right path and you're on the wrong path. Maybe you really want to save the world and do it in the form of becoming the Chosen One, the Edwards Den Magic, but I don’t think this is the right approach. I can do what you want without you and without your plans.”
The stranger pointed to the sofa where he was sitting:
"I have met many chosen people and all kinds of people. You know what? Although I have been involved in everything, I still sit under the stage. I could have watched everything quietly Happened, I could have done nothing, sold my most valuable possessions and enjoyed life in this era, but no, I saw a story I didn’t like, so I wanted to change it, even if it couldn’t be completely changed, I would never let it. , those tragedies continue to happen.
Howard, today’s conversation has changed my impression of you, but I don’t agree with you, and I won’t deny my path. ”
"Arrogance and arrogance are our original sins. People outside of destiny, I wish you success, because you and I have the same purpose. No matter who succeeds, it is our luck. But I will Prove to you that I am right, I saw everything and realized how naive your idea is."
He stood up and prepared to leave, but while looking down at Shade who was still sitting, he said two more words:
"There must be someone who guides you and puts you on the path of pursuing the chosen one. Maybe as you keep moving forward, you should slow down and think about whether the person who first led you is really right. direction? ”
Shad did not speak. The other party said this once on the night of hunting the devil, but Shad would not doubt Luvia. Even Luvia didn't seem to know everything, but the person in front of her certainly didn't know everything either.
"There is another piece of information I want you to know."
His words continue:
"The Sixth Era is now, lasting for 1854 years, but it has already shown signs of decline;
The Fifth Era lasted for 5,793 years in the data records. This is a fact recognized by the Five Gods Church and the three major academies. Even if there is an error, the error will not be large;
Continuing to look back to the turbulent fourth era of the Dark Age, the most secret information of the Prophet Association usually uses "ten thousand years" to describe that sad and tearful era, but also full of various heroic legends;
I once asked my demon friend who was captured by you. It was a slippery man who helped me but was wary of me. Although it refused to tell me the time of the third era in detail, it told me that it was a hundred thousand years. Level of long years.
The Second Era has long been unverifiable. As for the First Era, it is the original era."
He paused deliberately, and Shade sat there looking at him. The sound of crackling flames was so obvious in this situation. The pause was long, quite long, but Shade waited patiently.
