At the end in a blood-red light, Shia covered the crystal ball with linen cloth to announce the end of the divination.
"Senior, what did you see?" She was almost exhausted from the unknown fear. The expression on Villafa's face was something Artolis had never seen before. As an absolutely powerful person with extensive knowledge of ancient times, Artolis could not imagine it. He didn't know what kind of scene could make him so embarrassed.
"It was a disaster, the specific details are difficult to describe." Villafa explained, shaking his head with sweat. Although he tried his best to recall, the scene just now was still like waking up from a dream, and it was unimaginable. It quickly escaped from my mind.
In just a few breaths, Villafa had completely forgotten the previous fear.
"——Final Beast!" After calming down, at the end when all his memories were about to escape, he caught the most crucial word and said it.
"What is that?" Artoris expressed confusion upon hearing this.
"My memory is lost too fast. I don't know yet, but judging from the expression on my face just now, it seems that he is a very powerful being."
Having said this, Villafa winked at Artolis, and Artolis immediately understood what the other party meant.
After all, there were some things that were difficult for outsiders to discuss in detail. Artoris naturally knew this and stopped asking further questions.
"Noon has not passed yet, do you two plan to continue?"
Like an outsider, Shia, as a fortune teller, has not shown any more emotions since her surprise. Just judging from her meaningful smile, Artolis knew that the woman must be hiding something. . Because of his position or other reasons, he did not want to explain it clearly to the two of them.
"It's my turn next." After Villafa withdrew, Artolis took a step forward without hesitation and came to Shia.
"Like him, gaze at the crystal ball and meditate, and silently recite the content you want to divination in your heart." Shia took out the crystal ball again and held it in the palm of his hand with a linen bag.
"I want to know the outcome of the war, about the war that belongs to mankind to take back the future."
The girl recited her prayer in her heart, which fulfilled her sincerity that deserved to be praised. Apart from that, she had no excessive expectations.
However, what was surprising was that the light of the crystal ball quickly responded to her expectations, but then completely dimmed after turning on and off three times.
"Oh? What about a situation I've never seen before?" Compared to Artoris and the other two who were confused, Shia's lips showed an interesting smile.
As soon as her eyesight flickered, there was a square table between the two. The square table was also covered with a black tablecloth similar to the surrounding environment. If Shia hadn't set up a mirror on both sides, Artolis wouldn't even be able to Be aware of the table's presence.
Lowering her head, Artolis saw that the crystal ball in Shia's hand had disappeared and was replaced by a pair of cards. After being shuffled, she placed them evenly on the table with her back facing up.
"This is……?"
"Let's change the approach. Since the crystal ball doesn't work, let's use tarot cards for divination."
"Uh...then what should I do?"
"As you can see, there are seventy-eight tarot cards here, twenty-two of them are Major Arcana cards, and the remaining fifty-six are Minor Arcana cards. The number of flashes of the crystal ball just now was three. , then we will choose the "Holy Triangle" card array in the sequential card array. "Shia explained the rules seriously.
"Then first choose a card from the deck according to your subjective consciousness."
Artoris followed what the other party said and tried to touch one of the cards. However, as soon as her hand touched the card, a strange feeling poured into her brain like hundreds of rivers flowing into the sea. Her consciousness washed away.
At that time, you were in an endless wilderness, and your vision was filled with falling white snow. As a member of the Diffry scientific expedition team, you were walking at the forefront of the crowd with a detector. The detector sounded like a wild monkey warning that the battery was running out.
"This harsh environment is simply fatal!"
Behind him, a scientific expedition team member who was wrapped in six layers of cotton clothing and whose face looked exactly like a snow leopard protested.
The Snow Leopard was undoubtedly right. Under his instigation, people dropped their devices and, like extremist believers who had lost their faith, began to list the "crimes" of those in power.
You didn't care about it, countless memories came to your mind, your spirit began to overheat, and you stopped even complaining about why the narrator was in the second person.
"A professional scientific expedition team member."
You are so encouraging that you throw away the ineffective team members and move towards the daytime world alone...
"..." Awakening from the hallucination, Artolis turned over the cards in her hand.
The card shows Mercury, the messenger of the gods in Roman mythology. He has a confident smile and piercing eyes. There is an infinity symbol on the top of the head, and the belt is a snake connected end to end. Artolis understands that it is a symbol of spiritual eternity.
"——Magician!" Shia explained the meaning of this card.
"His right hand holds the scepter and points to the sky, and his left hand points to the ground, which represents the exchange of power and the gift of spirit. Under his feet are roses and lilies, which represent human motivations, reflect God's will, and command heaven and earth."
"What does this have to do with me?" Artolis wondered.
Let’s not talk about why divination in this world is related to the Tarot card system in this world. Does the fortune teller in front of him really understand the character Mercury?
However, in the face of Artolis's question, Shia did not give an answer. With the same mysterious smile on her face without a face, she guided Artolis to touch the second card.
Because she had learned from the past, Artolis was on guard this time, and carefully moved her outstretched hand towards another card she liked.
One coin!
Like a seasoned gambler, you tossed up the remaining coins in your pocket, then reached out your right hand to cover the fallen coins on the back of your left hand.
You're thinking that if time could go back fifteen years, this action would be very cool, at least it wouldn't be ridiculed by the security personnel watching not far away like it is now.
"Hey, you moneyless clown, please get out of the casino!"
He looked exactly like Mr. Potato, and his words and deeds were almost as polite as his appearance.
You look up and see that the surroundings are magnificent, with squirming banknotes forming a spiral staircase leading to the sky. At the highest place is a quite powerful quantum computer.
But your intuition tells you that it is a slot machine.
"Okay, you discovered it, it's a gambling machine, and now you can throw your coins into it, and you have a 0.0114514% chance of winning a multi-million jackpot."
That's a pretty stinky probability, but you choose to give up your coins because people can't see the same things as slot machines.
"Dulu, doo, doo, doo-!"
"Dang-rang-dang-rang-dang-rang—?"
You won the grand prize of ten million and flipping the coin was really cool.
"..."
Artolis turned over the cards in her hand, and she saw a little boy holding flowers in a golden vessel in a colorful garden. He seemed to be offering it to the little girl in front of him.
"——Six of Holy Cups!" Shia also explained the meaning of this card.
