Mystery: Lucky

Alice watched the lightning storm reel in the snake that bit her, and quietly licked her lips.

...it smells so good.

The tip of her nose twitched twice, and the smell of burnt fragrance gradually died down after the lightning exited, but Alice couldn't help but swallow her saliva and looked at Rachel's body with a longing look.

She subconsciously took a step forward, and then stopped vigilantly. Her appetite was mixed with the instinctive desire for extraordinary characteristics. Alice was no longer able to distinguish what it was. She knew that she had to leave here immediately.

As for the extraordinary properties of precipitation...hey, isn't there Klein?

Just send Klein here and let him send the things above the gray fog, and then I will take him back... Oh, by the way, there is that thing like a water pipe... Is that Will's snake slough? No matter, let Klein take it back first...

Before the extraordinary characteristics were released, Alice used her last sanity to appear in Mr. Fool's bedroom.

This was not the first time that Klein had done this kind of favor for Alice, but after listening to Alice's description of the delicious smell of snake meat, he still couldn't help but ask:

"...Is it your character or instinct to put everything in your mouth?"

Alice looked up at the ceiling.

Since she didn't cooperate, Klein naturally couldn't continue to explore this problem alone. He cooperated with Alice to retrieve the extraordinary characteristic - a piece of paper covered with ghost symbols.

With the help of the gray mist, Alice stared at the entangled lines on the paper for a while, and then she had the feeling of getting up at five in the morning and studying mathematics for thirteen hours straight.

She threw the piece of paper into the garbage pile without mercy, and then said to Klein with eyes blank:

"I'm going to go back and get some sleep."

Then, before Klein could say anything, she escaped from the gray mist and fell asleep.

…

On Friday morning, in a double ward in a hospital in Backlund.

"By the way, Selena," midway through the conversation, Velma suddenly seemed to have thought of something and asked the burgundy-haired girl on the other bed, "What was the result of your last divination? "

Selina was stunned for a moment, and she realized that what Velma was asking was exactly the result of her interruption before she had time to report it.

That was really not a wonderful result. Selina looked at Velma and frowned, feeling embarrassed again.

What should I say? Tell her that the outcome of this baby might not be good? No, no, this won't work. Can I find a reason not to tell her...

After changing her mind, Selena quickly thought of an idea. She looked at Velma with an awkward attitude:

"This... to be honest, I am very unfamiliar with the Intis card array, and the divination was very informal. I did not open the card array after your accident, so I don't know the result of the divination..."

After hearing the reasonable answer, Velma looked disappointed. Selena said sorry in her heart and secretly applauded herself.

Unfortunately, before she could be happy for a long time, Velma continued to ask:

"Selena, do you have any familiar card formations?

"I, I want to ask you to divine again..."

Seemingly embarrassed by this request, Selina clearly saw Velma's embarrassed look. She knew that she would not say anything even if she refused Velma, but after hesitating for a few seconds, Selina still couldn't bear it. Zhu said:

"OK.

"Let me try to calculate the past, present and future. This is the simplest algorithm."

So Velma breathed a sigh of relief and showed a tired smile.

That smiling face made Selina feel inexplicably uneasy. She lowered her head covertly, spread out the tablecloth, and shuffled the cards.

For orthodox tarot divination, some gems should be placed around it to increase the accuracy, but since she was already using her legs as a table and the environment of the hospital, Selina didn't say anything.

She gathered the tarot cards casually, shuffled the cards in confusion, randomly picked out three cards in sequence, and then revealed them from left to right.

The first card on the left is the upright Wheel of Fortune, which is the past and symbolizes a favorable change. This is easy to interpret. Selena immediately thought of Velma and Allen's concern for this child. She guessed that they You must be so happy when you find your child.

Thinking of this, Selina couldn't help but think of the current situation. She sighed sadly, and then opened the card that represented the present.

Her expression hardened.

That's a reversed wheel of fortune.

How come there are two Wheels of Fortune in a deck of cards? Selina was shocked, but she didn't like tarot divination in the first place. Maybe she really pretended to be wrong, not to mention that she had never carefully counted the deck of cards since entering the hospital.

Her strange expression was noticed by Velma, so Velma asked:

"What's wrong, Selena? It's the result..."

Velma's voice paused, and a worried look appeared on her face again.

Selena knew that she should not continue to be in a daze. She took a deep breath, but she was inexplicably relieved in her heart. She tried not to let her relief show, and said after careful consideration:

“No, it’s not what you think.

"It's a card..."

She paused, then pointed to the two Wheel of Fortune cards and said apologetically:

"Have you seen these two wheels of fortune? Well, I know you don't know much about tarot cards, but you should know that this is different from poker. There will be no duplicate cards in a deck of tarot cards. Right?"

Wilma nodded and then asked:

"I know.

"So this is..."

Selena sighed softly: "I'm very sorry, madam, I'm afraid there's something wrong with my deck of cards... I blame it for not checking my cards properly."

When she said these words, Selena breathed a sigh of relief, and the last bit of trouble in her heart disappeared. She didn't have to worry about untimely results of her divination for a while.

Velma pursed her lips and looked at the cards on Selina's lap. After a few seconds of silence, she suddenly spoke out when Selina was about to collect the cards:

"I'm sorry, but...

"Selena, can you also reveal the last card?"

Selena was stunned for a moment, but this request was not too much. She could not find a reason to refuse, so she once again revealed the last card with uneasiness.

That's another reversed Wheel of Fortune.

Selina couldn't help but take a breath. The probability was too small. She was so shocked that she lost her voice and said:

"How is that possible?!"

Wilma said nothing, but confirmed:

"I remember this card. It's the same card you revealed the last time you gave me a divination, isn't it?"

"...Yes." Selina admitted this, and the lingering uneasiness intensified again.

"What does it symbolize?" Velma then asked, "Is it some bad outcome?"

Selina opened her mouth and was speechless. Velma smiled as if she saw something:

"Tell me...I'm mentally prepared."

Selina looked at Velma blankly.

Realizing that Wilma's breath was inexplicably calm at this moment, as if she had figured out something, her smile gradually became peaceful and calm.

She seemed to be no longer worried... Selena realized this in a daze, and she gave the answer absentmindedly:

"Yes... this is the reversed Wheel of Fortune, which symbolizes that things will develop in a bad direction. This card symbolizes the future, so..."

"So, things will not go well in the future, right?" Velma calmly accepted Selina's unspeakable content.

Selina finally confirmed Velma's indifference at this moment. She was confused, but she nodded.

So Velma lowered her eyelids, and Selina saw her lowering her head, stroking her belly gently and sadly, and asked softly:

"Selena, can I ask you a favor?"

"Say." Selina straightened her back.

"If..." Velma spoke in a soothing tone, Selina straightened her body and listened carefully, "If something happens to me..."

As soon as these words came out, Selena was shocked. She was shocked and wanted to speak to stop her, but Velma raised her head with a smile as expected, and shook her head gently.

Velma's pleading eyes fell on Selena's face, and she blocked what she was about to say.

Then, Wilma lowered her head again, stroked her belly and whispered:

"If something happens to me, please remember to help me advise Alan... don't be too sad.

"It's not good for your health."

These last words were like a thunderbolt, shocking Selina to the point of being stunned. She couldn't react at all. In the silence, Allen pushed the door open and entered.

"What are you talking about?" The surgeon gently came to the door and asked them.

"Just chat...are you here for ward rounds?" Velma asked Allen as if she hadn't said anything just now.

Selina opened her mouth but couldn't say a word. She suddenly remembered what she had heard in the past - dying people can feel their own death.

She looked at Velma absently, thinking about the authenticity of this rumor in her mind.

…

Alice slept well. She didn't wake up until Friday night. When she first woke up, she looked at the night outside and almost thought she hadn't slept very long.

Fortunately, she woke up quickly and realized that she could not turn back the time she slept in anyway. She got up again, got up slowly, and ate.

There was not a lot of food to choose from at this point, and Alice was happily chewing on the pie, which reminded her of Klein again.

She had just confirmed that she had not slept for more than a day, so today should be Friday, and Klein should be assassinating Mr.

Therefore, the "magic mirror" that impressed her so much must be pretending to be Klein.

So with a thought in her mind, she appeared in Klein's bedroom with a familiar face, and as expected she saw a vision on the bed.

This illusion was false in Alice's eyes. Alice shook her head, dragged a chair to sit beside the bed, and said to the illusion or Arrodes who dared not speak:

"I have something to ask you."

"What is your problem?" Arrodes said respectfully in a voice that belonged to Dwayne Dantès.

After Alice was silent for two seconds, she first made a meaningless sigh:

"If there is a tape recorder in this era, I must let you call me master, and then record it and play it to Klein."

Arrodes didn't dare to speak. Alice glanced at it and didn't expect it to respond. She just thought about a question:

"The magic potion formula of 'Chaos Walker', the auxiliary material is called 'all the fragments of a broken prophecy'. How to collect it?"

She should have asked Arrodes what it was, but then she thought of the mirror's question-and-answer feature, so she decided to change it to how to collect it.

After all, Alice could probably guess what it was, but she just couldn't give an accurate definition.

This question didn't stump Arrodes, after all, the number of "Chaos Walkers" was not small, and Arrodes easily gave the answer:

"It depends on the carrier of the broken prophecy.

"For example, a prophecy written on paper can burn the paper to ashes.

"For example, a prophecy in the form of various paintings can scrape off the paint.

"The prophecy in the crystal ball can smash the crystal ball..."

"In addition, this prophecy is best related to the user himself, or broken by the user himself, so that the power it carries will be more perfect..."

Alice looked at Arrodes' detailed suggestions and fell into deep thought.

Alice actually knew a prophecy related to her and broken by her - although that prophecy had not actually been broken.

That was the dream she had when she first met Will Auceptin.

Alice was deeply impressed by the scene in the dream where she climbed to the top of the tower and was eventually swallowed by another giant white snake. To this day, she has realized that it was the mercury snake, the mythical creature form of the "destiny" path.

But prophetic dreams are symbolic. At first, Alice thought that the snake was Will Auceptin, and she was the material for Will Auceptin's potion.

Later, Alice regarded that dream as a revelation of an opportunity to become a god, and she might have to escape this inevitable death through death.

Just now, after Arrodes asked for a prophecy, Alice remembered the dream again. She was forced to peek into her own dead end twice, and the result was that dream, so it must be a prophecy about a dead end.

But can Will Auceptin really push her to that point?

To this day, Alice has actually doubted this matter - there is Ouroboros, who seems to be watching but actually has a slightly crooked tendency, there is the future Lord of Mystery, there is the current Goddess of the Night, and Will Auceptin, who has not yet been born, what is the basis?

Alice suspected that the snake that intended to swallow her in the prophetic dream was someone else, such as... a real "incarnation of fate".

Her eyes darkened as she looked at Arrodes pretending to be Dwayne Dantes, and asked a question without thinking:

"If the carrier of the prophecy is a dream... how can I get the fragments of that dream?"
