Chapter 17 The Gift of Fate

Chapter 17 The Gift of Fate

In the cellar of a manor on the outskirts of St. Leiden, a beautiful girl didn't care that the dust in the cellar covered her skirt.

She frowned, and put down a seemingly gorgeous ceramic bottle, her mouth was full of dryness:
"Another fake! The antiques that my father bought with a lot of money are all worthless rubbish. If we can't get the money to be cashed next week, our Storrs family will be ruined! God, we can't come A miracle, give me an extraordinary power, let me get back my legitimate profits from the group of vampires in the Church of Fortune?"

Just as she picked up a copper plate that was as clean as a mirror without any hope, and saw her delicate face in it, suddenly a cloud of gray mist burst out of the mirror, covering her...

……

Amidst the starlight, Daisy Storrs regained her sight, looked around in horror and confusion, and was surprised to find that she was like a small snack on a white dining table, while a taller person On the fifth floor, like the mythical Titans, a mysterious giant whose whole body is composed of starlight and astral lines, is staring at her.

Those star-like eyes seem to be able to see through her heart and soul.

Even though she also has a faint mist covering her appearance, it doesn't give her a sense of security.

"Your Excellency, where is this?"

"Why did you pull me here?"

"What do you want to do?"

A weak young lady who had never been threatened with death was suddenly captured by an extraordinary existence. The fear and anxiety could not be concealed.

After subconsciously asking three times in a row, she found that this was too unfavorable for negotiation, so she forced herself to remain silent.

The atmosphere became eerie.

In the field of vision, the star giant who outlined the sideline of his body with star rays crossed his fingers, resting his chin on the back of his fingers.

His voice was not as rumbling, majestic and stern as Daisy had imagined, but instead had a vague sense of mystery.

The voice, which sounded a little too young, also had a strong sense of indifference: "I heard your prayers, and I answered your prayers. That's all."

Suddenly hearing what Mark said, Daisy's reaction was wonderful.

The first is panic and fear, followed by vigilance and awe.

As long as anyone has enough common sense about the power of gods, they will know that it is not only gods who will answer the prayers of believers, but also demons and devils.

She, who was passively drawn into this strange sea of ​​stars, was even more shocked on the spot and completely confused.

She tried to drive her brain to rotate, trying to find a more appropriate way to deal with it, at least to let her understand the situation.

Before she could open the conversation, the star giant opposite asked.

"You yearn for extraordinary power. Then you... really know what [anomaly] is? How do human beings get extraordinary power?"

The star giant seemed to ask Daisy questions like a teacher's attention to students, but Daisy was determined: at least, this does not seem to be the way of demons and devils.

Like a good student trying to answer questions, she didn't dare to hide anything, and said a series of words:

"[Anomalies] are often caused by a failed extraordinary experiment, or the existence of an out-of-control extraordinary order."

"It is said that in the chaotic era when the gods fought fiercely 1000 years ago, the gods came without warning. In order to encourage more people to believe in themselves and let more outstanding mortals become their assistants, the gods appeared one after another and descended many [ Slate of divine power] in various human settlements, convenient for mortals to study."

"In the wild, there will also be lucky people who find the slab of divine power that has a vacant position in the god. After a lot of hard work and hard work, they succeed in enshrining the god with a human body, just like the twin goddesses of light and night."

"Regardless of good and evil, all the gods began to allow outstanding believers who have studied their own divine power to rub the [Divine Power Slate] to attract more believers."

Speaking of this, even if it was covered by fog, the anger of the merchant lady could be clearly heard.

"The problem also lies in this-since 300 years ago, the gods rarely issued oracles, and even the divine revelations rarely appeared. The high-level leaders of the major sects began to add their own spells to the rubbings of the divine power tablet. to force subsequent trainees to obey their orders."

"In order to monopolize extraordinary divine power, these guys gathered together and forced all neutrals and dissidents to hand over the [Divine Power Tablet] and all rubbings in their hands. This is the source of the 'Suzheng War' that has lasted for more than 200 years. "

Ms. Businessman so clearly and concisely stated the secrets that would never be written in this history textbook, which shocked Mark, the author of the question.

Well, the teacher doesn't need to understand it, as long as the students understand it.

This business lady is definitely a top student.

On the other hand, Mark began to understand why the Church of Light and Night treated the Destiny family so courteously. It was obvious that his grandfather was one of the members holding the slate.

Mark, who turned into a star giant, nodded slightly, noncommittal.

Miss Merchant made a ladylike salute to Mark: "Dear Your Excellency, our family is indeed in difficulty, but our family has enough good goods. All we need is a 'clean' rubbing copy of E-rank wealth power, no, As long as we can get a supernatural item and keep those damned vampires from commercial prying eyes, that's enough."

Mark smiled. Sure enough, the target he had screened out through layers of screening was exactly the power of [Fortune].

Originally, he could summon three lucky ones (big wronged species) in one go, but after thinking about it carefully, he gave up.After all, there are three different forces, and Mark can't let them form vicious bidding and profit from it.

Instead of making the situation confusing, it is better to come one by one. He can also take the opportunity to collect information, carefully distinguish its authenticity, and eliminate the possibility of the other party colluding.

"Is this what you want?"

When a clean rubbing copy of [Fortune] Introduction to Extraordinary Divine Power appeared in front of Daisy, she became short of breath.

The voice of the business lady almost whispered: "There is no inscription of a certain priest, not even the name of the goddess of wealth. My God! This is the most primitive version of rubbings!"

Is it?

Mark himself was also confused.Fate Dice asked him if he wanted to purify these things.He agreed.

Who would have expected that after a simple purification and removal of redundant inscriptions, these things would become more valuable?
The merchant lady trembled: "What price do I need to pay for this?"

The star giant in her eyes spread out her hands with a smile, and the next moment, a gleaming golden balance appeared in front of her.

"All the gifts of fate have already been secretly priced. But I just put a price on it."

Miss Merchant's reaction was quite intense. Ever since the top leaders of the major churches monopolized the extraordinary power, all mortal regimes have to succumb to the extraordinary power.If you want to gain extraordinary power, you must bow your head to the church, or pray for that one-of-a-kind opportunity.

But the so-called opportunity is often an out-of-control [abnormality]. The consequence of using this kind of power is that you will become the next abnormal existence.

How can there be such a reasonable exchange?
As a businessman, you are never afraid that the goods are too expensive, but that the goods are fake.

As long as this thing really works, then today is undoubtedly her lucky day.

She also keenly noticed that since the other party took out the rubbings of the original [Fortune] power, they sold it instead of handing it over to the Church of Fortune, which meant that this mysterious existence didn't care about offending the three major churches.

This discovery made her tremble with excitement.

Looking at the rubbings on the tray at the other end of the balance, there was an imaginary word [12] in the sky, and she carefully added the chips bit by bit until the rubbings were slightly heavier.

She changed several chips in a row, and the only one was [11], but if she added more chips, she would suffer again.

Unwilling, she tentatively asked: "My lord, is this okay? If it's not enough, I'll add more. But I still hope to leave more bargaining chips to deal with the crisis at home."

As soon as she finished speaking, Daisy realized that she had made a serious mistake.A businessman instinctively hopes that every transaction partner is a big vengeful, but the other party is too mysterious, and if he goes too far, he will get burned.

None of the possible consequences of flipping the table could be tolerated by her little mortal woman.

Daisy decided to buy an insurance: "I can put another transcendent item here as collateral, or as a bargaining chip for the next transaction, is that okay? I really don't intend to offend the great you."

Mark squinted his eyes, and finally nodded: "Yes, but next time if there is a deal, I will ask for a higher price."

"Follow your will." Daisy's heart was beating wildly, and being able to take advantage of the first transaction made Daisy's evaluation of the other party a little subtle.

Forgiving, but definitely not dumb.

She must be careful!careful!Be careful!

After carefully judging the character of the other party, the business lady shrank her neck slightly, and finally dared to ask tentatively: "Excuse me, if I get something more valuable in the future, can I replace it with the one I pressed today?" Where are the chips?"

"As long as the balance of fate accepts it."

It sounded like an unnutritious answer, but it reassured the merchant lady.

It can be exchanged for chips, which means that most of the star giants do not come from hell or the abyss, and they are not the kind of evil existence that cannibalize people without spitting out bones.

At least now she's safe.

Once the deal is done, it's time to end.

She suppressed the excitement in her heart: "Great existence, if I still want to find you, how can I contact you?"

"I'll contact you in about a month. If I'm happy..."

This is the art of language, not saying the words to death, but also giving her a feeling of moodiness and inscrutability.

After all, the two parties are not in a subordinate relationship. Even if Mark has Miss Puppet as his hole card at this time, the dice will not show him the appearance of the other party.He is pretending to be a god, and the other party is also in a fog!
That is to say, most of the dice will not allow him to cross the space to find trouble for the opponent.

That being the case, it is meaningless to speak harshly casually.

Well, the seeds were planted.

"Last question. Can you tell me your name?" Daisy asked in a low voice.

The star giant in front of her crossed his fingers and pressed his fist against his lower lip. He smiled: "You can call me [Mr. Yinhe]! However, remember to keep my name secret."

Galaxy?

What is a galaxy?

This extremely unfamiliar term made Daisy a little confused.

With the short answer, the stars in the sky began to quickly disappear in her field of vision, and even the final sound of the last word became like the sunset bell from a distant church, ethereal and illusory.

This name was like an echo, echoing in her ears non-stop, stirring up ripples in her heart circle after circle.

Correct!
Such a strange, powerful, and omnipotent existence deserves such an unheard of mysterious title.

Daisy instinctively lifted the hem of her skirt, bent her knees, and gave a ladylike salute to the disappearing giant's projection.

After recovering, Daisy found that she had returned to the storage basement.

Two seconds later, there was a moving exclamation from the business lady.

"Oh my God! If this is a rubbing copy that exists in the material world. I can even use it to go to the Church of Fortune to be a regional priest and protect the entire Storrs family."

But the business lady immediately became worried.

"What Mr. Yinhe is planning must not be so small."

With the unique vigilance of a successful businessman, she began to carefully calculate her own gains and losses...
