Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 556 Chapter 134 Follow the trend of fate

“I think we’re getting close to finding Him.”

A clear voice sounded, and the young man wearing a monocle stopped and turned his glasses slightly before saying:

"Why do you say that suddenly?"

"Feeling," the voice said bluntly, "It's just a feeling... In fact, I seem to have started to have this feeling a few days ago."

"A few days ago..." The young man smiled slightly and did not respond.

These two people were Will Auceptin and Amon. After a false heart-to-heart talk, Amon really began to show his sincerity to Will Auceptin - He really began to look for Ouroboros.

Of course, this was useless. Even after Ouroboros had gone through untold hardships to kill the former "God of Luck", the Sequence 1 characteristic was picked up by Will Auceptin at the time. Will Auceptin had not been found for thousands of years, but this could not change Ouroboros' luck.

At this moment, when the positions of the pursuers and the pursued were exchanged, this luck finally came in handy, and neither Amon nor Will Auceptin could find Ouroboros.

Most of the time, Ouroboros stayed with the True Creator. Amon didn't have the courage to knock on his door, and when Ouroboros occasionally went out...

Sometimes they really got the news, sometimes it was a revelation from fate, and sometimes it was a sense of the ripples of fate. In short, they followed various sources of news to look for Ouroboros, but always missed him.

——Obviously, fate still recognized His luck.

After taking a few more steps, Amon laughed and said with a sigh:
"Sometimes I really feel that you two are like gifts carefully selected by fate. It is picking and choosing between the two of you, not knowing who to send away... Now it seems that you are the one chosen?"

Will Auceptin retorted: "...Are you a courier?"

Amon pinched his monocle and smiled jokingly and proudly:

"Why, did I poke your wound? I apologize to you?"

No one paid any attention to Him.

……

"Come in." In the dim herbal shop, the fat pharmacist Darkwill said listlessly when he heard the knock on the door.

After the "Dice of Probability" was taken away by Alice, and after the news that Miss Fate had swallowed the "0" level seal of the "School of Life" spread across the sea, he finally remembered the letter his teacher left him.

When he walked to the convenience store and found out that the dice he wanted to buy had already been bought by someone else, he realized that the clues the teacher left for him had been taken away in advance.

Darkwill was extremely panicked by this. Being a cautious person, he did not have the courage to contact his companions, so he kept hiding, running the herbal medicine shop around, stopping at one place for a while and then changing places.

Darkwill, who had been hiding for several months, thought that he could live like this forever, but who would have thought that today's guest was actually someone he knew.

Roy King, his teacher, a "winner".

Darkwill looked at the person who walked in with surprise. It took him more than ten seconds to react. He then jumped up and called out in surprise:
"Teacher! You, what are you doing...?"

The "winner" who had spent several months to successfully escape from prison glanced at his students and sighed:
"Although I knew you were not smart, I never expected...

"Has it never occurred to you that I might be a fake?"

Darkwill's joy suddenly disappeared. He hesitated and stopped moving. He looked at Roy King with a wary look.

Roy King shook his head, walked into the store, closed the door and said:
“After a while after I was arrested, around February, the supervision of me gradually eased.

"Half a month ago, I managed to escape during the shift change thanks to my accumulated luck. I immediately went to find Councillor Richoide and learned of his death."

“Dead?!” Darkwill, who hadn’t been in contact with the organization for several months, opened his eyes wide, as if he had seen a ghost.

"That's right," Roy Jin looked at him deeply. "Besides that, I also heard that there is a lady of destiny on the sea who swallowed a '0' level seal that belongs to us. Darkwill, do you know what this is about?"

Darkwill gave an awkward smile.

Roy King knew the answer as soon as he saw it. His expression darkened and he asked:

"Has anyone else contacted you? Or have you contacted anyone?"

Darkwill's expression became even more embarrassed.

"This is really..." Roy King was speechless for a moment, "I originally thought that His Highness was watching all this, and fate would take care of it, so there was no need to worry about you and... But I didn't expect that His Highness now looks a little..."

“Your Highness?” Darkwill’s expression was a little doubtful.

Even though he had joined the "School of Life" for a long time, Darkwill was still quite unfamiliar with the top leaders of the School of Life. He vaguely guessed that the top leaders of the "School of Life" were in a civil war, but he didn't know who the two sides of the civil war were.

Of course, Darkwill thought that this was not his fault, and all the blame should be placed on his teacher who implemented a laissez-faire policy, the one in front of him.

His teacher, Roy King, was a person who had great faith in fate. After giving him the formula for the Sequence 8 potion, he never paid any attention to him again. Even if he asked about it one day, he would only tell him to seek guidance from fate.

He seemed to have fully grasped the true meaning of "winner".

Darkwill was expecting some explanation from his teacher, but Roy King had no interest in explanation. He just sat in the herbal shop, glanced at the owl on his shoulder, and asked him:

"You're already Sequence 8? How's your potion digestion?"

Darkwill was a little uncomfortable with the change of topic. He nodded and spoke nervously:

"It has been digested, but..."

"This is your Sequence 7 potion formula," Roy King interrupted the conversation directly. "I could have provided you with some potion materials or a complete potion, but unfortunately, after being controlled by the Loen military, my things were also taken away. Only the formula I memorized in my head is still there."

"You don't blame me?" Darkwill asked subconsciously.

"Why should I blame you?" Roy King shook his head. "Since even Senator Richoide paid the price of his life in the process of stopping him, and His Highness lost contact as a result, it means..."

He paused, then raised his head and said devoutly, "The direction of fate is irreversible. I have seen our fate. We will be swept away by the tide of fate and flow towards Miss Fate. Anyone who tries to resist will be drowned by the tide of fate."

Darkwill looked at Roy Jin in confusion and said hesitantly:
"So, we should go find Miss Destiny...?"

"That's right," Roy King showed a teachable expression, "We should follow the trend of fate, get close to Miss Fate, and lend a helping hand when She needs it."

Darkwill finally understood what Roy Jin meant, and he blurted out:

"You are planning to rebel!"

"We are following the trend of fate," Roy King's expression was focused and pious, without any change. "This is unchangeable. Submission is the best choice for us. All we can do is obey."

Darkwill opened and closed his mouth several times before saying with admiration:
"You're right."

Unfortunately, the owl on his shoulder seemed to be deliberately trying to sabotage him. It had never spoken before, but at this moment it finally spoke, saying something that made both of them very embarrassed:

"Why are you like this now? You would always complain in this situation before, but because this is your teacher, you can only complain secretly in your heart? Hurry up and speak out your thoughts!"

“Shut up, you damn bird!” Darkwill gave the owl a fierce look.

This really ruined the situation. When the owl heard this, it was like a chicken with blood injected. It screamed and fluttered its wings, saying:
"Someone, help! Someone is saying that if you can't win, you have to kill the bird!"

Roy King glanced at the bird and praised: "It seems that you have raised a very smart bird."

Darkwill smiled awkwardly again and remained silent.

Roy Jin did not insist. He took the initiative to change the subject and asked Darkwill:

"Have you seen Miss Destiny? Do you know how to contact her?"

Darkwill paused, then told the truth:

“I have, but not in the way you think… When I met her, she was just coming to my herbal medicine shop normally… Oh, right.

"Initially, He asked me how to contact the 'School of Life'. I... I was very scared at the time, so I rejected Him and ran away..."

"Very good," Roy King nodded, "Maybe you should have chosen 'Monster'. It seems that this really suits you. You have mastered something that many people have not mastered. I mean, you have learned to obey your inner choice."

Darkwill hesitated to speak, but Roy King shook his head and said:

"Seeing that you are walking on the path guided by destiny, I feel relieved. I will also go to find my own path."

Having said this, Roy King left the herbal medicine shop.

Darkwill was stunned for a moment before rushing out of the herbal medicine shop. He watched Roy King's back go away, then muttered to himself:

"No wonder the teacher is the 'winner'..."

……

After obtaining Adam's unilateral consent, Alice slept well.

When Alice woke up the next day, she began to think about what she should do now.

The news about the River of Destiny was not actually that urgent. Alice thought about it and decided that there was no need to rush. Perhaps she could consider playing the role of "Chaos Walker" while looking for the news.

Literally speaking, "Chaos Walker" means "a person walking in chaos". The meaning is concise and the key words are also clear - one is chaos, and the other is walking.

What kind of chaos is chaos? Or what is the chaos of? What are the specific manifestations?
How do you walk? Is it a literal walk or does it have a deeper meaning? For example, witnessing, for example...

Thinking of the influence of the angels of the Destiny Path, thinking of what Cassandra did, thinking of the ability of the Prophet, and thinking of the Sequence 2 promotion ceremony, Alice muttered to herself:

"When we walk in chaos, do we mean being a bystander, a passer-by, or...

"Bring chaos and then walk by like a passerby?"

Alice frowned and sat there. She didn't have many thoughts of her own, but she really didn't expect it to be the latter kind of acting. That didn't sound like a good thing. Even if Alice didn't care too much, she knew that what she was doing was not the same as a prank.

Besides, it wasn't that she didn't care at all - at least right now, she couldn't let Alice do this to the people of Silver City and Moon City, the Night Watchmen, and the members of the Tarot Club.

Because these people had been "seen" by her.

This thought gave Alice some inspiration. She patted her head and realized that the "Chaos Walker" might not only travel through chaos, but also witness something.

Alice leaned back in her chair and muttered to herself again:
"Besides that, I might also be able to refer to the acting method of another sequence called 'something walker'...

"Well, in that case, can we use 'Chaos' as a reference? I seem to remember that there is a sequence in the 'Black Emperor' pathway that contains 'Chaos'..."

Alice, who was good at finding reference answers, secretly remembered this incident and then decided to do something she hadn't done for a long time - she wanted to tell fortunes.

After deciding on "clues to how the Chaos Walker would perform" as the purpose of divination, Alice closed her eyes and fell asleep.

In her dream, Alice saw a familiar, shimmering river. The river came from an unknown distance. The rippling light spots formed waves, which suddenly fell and turned the tributaries into an entire spacious river channel.

Then, new waves surged up in the river and fell into the next tributary, and the original river channel was transformed into several tributaries again as the waves receded.

This process repeated itself over and over again. Alice didn't know how long she had been standing there watching. She only saw that, at the very end, she lifted her foot and stepped into the river.

Before she raised her second foot, the dream disappeared before her eyes. Alice was stunned for a moment, then sat up from where she was, frowning and saying:
"I am playing the role of a clue in the long river of fate???"

This was undoubtedly an extremely outrageous answer. Alice looked as if she had seen a ghost. She sat up straight and muttered:
"This is as outrageous as the requirement for the promotion ceremony to be a 'time traveler'... It can't be true, right? Who can fulfill such an outrageous requirement?

"No, that's not right. I just divined my clues. Maybe this is the most convenient way? At least it's the most convenient for me...?"
"But this doesn't make sense. Could it be that I can't find clues anywhere else? Why is there only this one hint... No, I have to try it. After all, it's still early for Klein Sequence 2..."
