"Where's the professor? Where's the captain? Where are the other members of Night Blade? Why us." Wang Yu ran wildly in the "gap" and quickly rushed to the location Edward told him.
In fact, if possible, Wang Yu plans to bring Aviya or a few followers of the Night Church to help. After all, there is strength in numbers. Group fights are more powerful than single fights at any time, but only he can pass." "gap" and couldn't bring anyone else with me.
At the same time, Wang Yu could understand not to drag Charles with him. After all, they all belonged to the Ryder family. But from Edward's tone, this incident seemed to be very serious. What about the professor and Captain Shuguein?
They have obviously come back. The last vampire incident was handed over to Wang Yu and the others because they were away. But now they have come back. Moreover, why is only Edward going with him? If it is in the royal city, then it shouldn't be done. There will be no other reinforcements.
"Wang Yu, you probably don't know the secrets of the Ryder family. Let me tell you briefly." Edward's voice sounded a little intermittent, and it sounded like he was running.
"good…"
There must be a reason for everything to be abnormal. There must be a reason behind this unreasonable situation. Wang Yu is a commoner among commoners. Regarding the secrets between noble families, except for what he learned a little bit about in the library of the cabin in the forest. If you know almost nothing outside, just listen to what Edward has to say.
"First of all, today most of the Night Blade's organizations have been summoned by the royal family. Today is the review and commendation day with a one-year cycle, so almost all the normal Night Blade teams have gone to the palace. In order to ensure The review went smoothly and there were no accidents, and the palace has been closed to the outside world."
"Our special operations team does not need to conduct a review, but the last time the professor and Edward went there was to deal with a certain existence called the "God of War" that is similar to the source of life. They are now studying and processing the derivatives of the "God of War" at the bottom of the Abyss. thing."
"In other words, it's a coincidence that we are the only ones who can take action now." Edward's voice was very heavy, even more serious than when he faced the ridiculously powerful blessed vampire.
"Coincidence?" Wang Yu frowned. This was too coincidental. It was just him and Edward. Not to mention the total number of Night Blades, there were more than a few hundred people. Are all of them busy today?
Moreover, this review day of the Blade of the Night was actually a completely random date to prevent the enemy from knowing about it. Only Edward, the son of the Grand Duke, could know his high-ranking status. Wang Yu, he was not worthy at all. It happened to be today. ?
"Wait, fate spy..." Wang Yu chewed on the meaning of this madman's identity, and it seemed to make sense.
"Yes, the Ryder family is actually called the fortune teller family. The people in their family all have very good wizard talents. In the inheritance, they use this power to spy on fate and rewrite it, so they are called Fortune teller."
"Ciel is an anomaly. His wizarding talent is not outstanding among the family. At the same time, he refuses to pry into his own destiny. That's why their family cut off contact with him and expelled him from the Ryder family."
"The power of the Ryder family is very special and valuable. As the top old family in the kingdom, they have done a lot for the kingdom with their abilities and avoided many disasters, so they have a very high status. At the same time, their family's abilities are also listed on the list. To keep it secret, you don’t know it’s normal.”
"The Life Stalker is the name given to the most powerful fortune teller in their family. Therefore, the reason why only the two of us have the opportunity to arrive is probably because this Life Stalker has already seen the possible results. .”
Edward sighed, his tone filled with deep helplessness. An opponent who could see the future would be a very difficult enemy to deal with. If he could, he really didn't want to face this guy, but he had no choice but to go.
"Spying on fate?..." Wang Yu didn't particularly care about the secrets of the Ryder family. After all, it had nothing to do with him as a civilian wage earner. Instead, he was more concerned about the meaning of the ability to spy on fate.
After being in this world for so long, the most powerful force he has seen should be the giant creature he saw that afternoon in the forest cabin, the Ossuary. The power it displayed was even comparable to the gods in Wang Yu's opinion. .
However, it is just pure power and oppression, and is not merged into the flow of cause and effect and metaphysics. So far, Wang Yu has never seen any abilities such as prophecy and destiny, and has not been associated with them. There is only the power of "stopping time".
But this time, Wang Yu knew that this world also has the ability to predict and even control destiny. This made Wang Yu a little irritated. Once these super-standard powers are involved, things will become troublesome.
"Wait...Am I taking this too seriously?" Wang Yu suddenly realized something and blinked.
While running wildly, Wang Yu's brain was spinning rapidly, peering into fate. This sounds like a terrifying and powerful force. Being able to predict the future means being able to avoid mistakes countless times, try to complete the goal countless times, and finally achieve it. own purpose.
However, is this really impossible and fanciful? It seems not. Changes between things affect each other. Under certain conditions, it is possible to know what will happen.
Without setting other conditions, if an ordinary stone hits an egg hard, the result of the egg breaking can be predicted.
So is this also a kind of predicting fate? It should be. That is to say, as long as the conditions are extended to the entire world for speculation, then it is true that fate can be predicted.
Of course, this requires huge computing power to simulate the changes in the entire world, which is probably impossible even for supercomputers. But there may be something that can be done in this world, and the results can be obtained by skipping the process of the problem... Wang Yu knows one , that is void.
"Is it any wonder that the Ryder family are all powerful wizards who use the special characteristics of the void to predict the future? I don't even know that their genius relies too much on the void."
Wang Yu now has a general guess, and based on his knowledge, this guess is probably close to ten.
Aviya also has a similar magic, the eye of weather, but it is done by magic. It is by virtue of this that Wang Yu predicts the weather in Mayin Manor and completes the rainy night massacre.
But that is just a vague speculation, and it is only a conclusion obtained by analyzing data such as air humidity.
And the Ryder family's fortune teller can actually predict the two of them accurately. The difference is a bit too big. Without the help of the void, this is really unrealistic.
"Madmen come out of the void. Wizards are all potential madmen." Wang Yu murmured, but at the moment he didn't even know what Edward said about the madness of the life-watchers. Let's talk about it when we get there.
…
"Hoo ho ho." Edward's heavy breathing echoed clearly in the alley. The narrow street gap could not allow carriages and the like to pass through, so Edward had no choice but to run.
The dilapidated and messy buildings around it and the disorderly piles of garbage all indicate the location of this place, the city wall area. This place is not even covered by the "gap", and Edward cannot use the "gap" to move quickly.
The more he ran, the more powerless Edward felt. He had felt restrained three times now, once when he tried to call other Night Blade members for help, once when he wanted to ride over on horseback, and once when he tried to enter the gap again just now.
The result was all failures. These inexplicable failures seemed to tell Edward that all of this was within the plan of the life-peeper. He failed because the life-peeper had already seen through what would happen in the future. This kind of being seen clearly It feels very bad...
Frowning, Edward didn't know what the spy wanted to do, but the Ryder family crest on the letter was real, and what happened along the way also showed that the guy's identity was indeed real.
Then the plan to summon the devil should be true, but why?
"Kacha!" He kicked a wooden board blocking the front of the city wall to pieces, and Edward rushed out of the crowded and narrow streets and came to a slightly open place.
Looking around, it seems that this is where the poor people in the city wall area usually set up stalls and trade. The remaining small stalls are still on the ground, but no one is seen. Where have these people gone?
His attention shifted to a building next to the open space. No one was seen in the open space. This building that looked like a warehouse was the most likely hiding place for the Ryder family's spy.
This is where the signpost of the magic envelope pointed. The moment Edward stepped into this open space, the slight guiding force on the letter dissipated.
Staying vigilant, Edward took out a Tarot card with the Wheel of Fortune from his pocket. Ciel's Tarot card magic was the best way to locate him at this time.
The tarot cards turned into light and disappeared, and the shimmering footprints extended from the door of this multi-story stone building. It seemed that they were indeed inside.
I looked at the pocket watch at hand. It was now around one o'clock in the afternoon. It would take about five minutes for Wang Yu to arrive from Wangcheng Duanying. However, something like the Demon Summoning Array couldn't withstand delays and had to be fast. Even a minute difference might cause harm. irreversible consequences.
Carefully walking into the door of the stone building, Edward held a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. He followed the guidance of the glowing footsteps and leaned into the building little by little. With the guidance of the Wheel of Fortune Tarot card, he could avoid risks very well.
"Huh?" Just as Edward was carefully following the traces of the Tarot cards, the light in front disappeared and was replaced by a piece of broken ground. The place where the footprints were left was destroyed, and the guidance of the Tarot cards became ineffective. .
"Damn it..." The veins on Edward's forehead jumped involuntarily. This feeling of being calculated every step of the way was really too bad. Even Charles's Wheel of Fortune tarot card was calculated by this fortune teller. Went in.
"Ah, is it Ciel's magic? I have to say that the little guy's magic is very interesting. It's a pity that as a holder of the surname Ryder, it would be really sad if he can't even control his own destiny."
The voice sounded from nowhere, but a bad premonition came from behind, coming from the knight's sixth sense.
"!" Edward suddenly looked back, only to see that the way he came had been blocked by a wall without any warning or sound. A stone wall completely blocked the passage where Edward entered.
Looking back again, a figure suddenly stood in the middle of the floor where Edward was, looking at the alert Edward with a smile.
"Destiny asked me to introduce myself to you. Hello, my name is Pernia Ryder, Peeper of Destiny. Destiny has decreed that only you will come to see me today."
With a breathtaking face, smooth skin, towering breasts, and a gorgeous dress made of silk and translucent materials, the woman opposite her didn't look like an enemy who was about to be at war with Edward, but rather like a socialite walking into the ballroom. In fact, It may be because he is a member of the Ryder family after all, and his status will never be low.
Raising his shield, Edward narrowed his eyes. Is there such a person in the Ryder family? It seems that he has not been seen on the list. Could it be some hidden ancient person?
"Did you write that letter? Where are the residents of these walled areas? And where is the demon summoning array you mentioned?"
Edward did not dare to act rashly, ruling out the possibility that the person opposite him was mentally retarded, and dared to stand in front of Edward openly, which showed that Purnia had her confidence.
"Oh, how rude. Fate has led you here, but it has never shown you that abominable future."
Purnia patted the pair of peaks on her chest gently, sighing with a hint of helplessness. It must be said that the beauty was unsettling, but Edward had no time to pay attention to this at this time.
"What on earth do you want to do?" Edward frowned, and the words on the other side were without beginning or end, just like the pure Riddler.
"The Lord of Fear will eventually come, and even the angels of the abyss cannot stop it. Therefore, I need some changes. The demons from hell are a good third party, and they need a small reward."
Purnia flicked her fingers gently, but there was a bloody flame on her white fingertips.
"It seems that you are really crazy. Did the devil bite off your brain..." Edward raised the blade and couldn't wait any longer. This guy couldn't explain it. Hellfire, this madman really colluded with the demons in hell. On.
He raised his shield and sprinted. Edward's fighting spirit was running, and he rushed towards Purnia who seemed to be standing there without any defense. His footsteps broke the ground and stone fragments exploded. Regardless of whether there was a trap or not, a wizard is best when he is approached by a knight. The timing of the kill.
"If a great knight came, I might still find it a little troublesome, but fate tells me it's you, so there won't be any problem..." Youyou said.
The next moment, Edward's foot suddenly hit a bump under his feet. His full sprint made this small impact have a huge impact, causing him to lose his balance and stagger.
"Damn it, how could such a low-level mistake happen?" Annoyance flashed past, Edward gritted his teeth and adjusted his posture in the air to maintain balance.
"Cang!" The shield vibrated, and Edward's eyes widened. In disbelief, he found that there was a pillar next to him, and it collided with the shield. The force of the shock caused the balance to collapse again, and Edward fell out.
"Boom", his head hit something on the back, like a stone. The stone shattered, and his brain was buzzing.
Damn it, it was the secret power, the secret power of this unknown wizard, and Edward's alarm rang loudly.
"Only you, it won't work. Destiny only allows you to appear. You can't stop me." The words rang from my ears, and a stone fell from the top of my head at the same time. It seemed that it fell off normally due to years of disrepair, but it happened to hit Edward's head.
"..." There was no response. Edward also had some idea of Purnia's secret ability. He didn't do anything else. He turned on the Iron Sun and a layer of shield appeared, directly blocking the ceiling fragments that fell down. At the same time, he continued to be alert to the surroundings. "
"Wait, am I the only one who will come?" Edward thought for a moment, and suddenly realized something was wrong.
