Chapter 470 Chapter 49.10-A: Numbers and Miracles
·
When the stone golem opened the dice cup with its heavy hand, you and Master Helaran showed the notes you had written at the same time. The guessed numbers were completely different.
He wrote 3,5,5,8.
You wrote 1,4,6,9.
The three dice are 2, 3, and 4 respectively.
The air seemed to freeze, causing everyone onlookers to fall into a long silence. Someone asked in a low voice: "This means who won?" Someone quietly replied: "It means no one won." If strictly speaking,
In order, you and he both guessed the number of the dice wrong. If one is correct, it counts, and you and he each guessed one correctly. Perhaps, the outcome depends on the mysterious extra number.
Why is there such an embarrassing situation? It's probably like two swords striking each other, and both are shattered. The final full-force divination and the final full-force luck fight were both extremely seriously interfered with.
Shaking the note in his hand, Master Helaran looked very nervous. Predicting the results was related to his life and death. For someone who has devoted most of his life to the illusory career of divination, he gritted his teeth and endured his peers, family, and friends.
For a person who has finally passed a road full of thorns and gained both fame and fortune through incomprehension, persuasion, disappointment, and blood, "inaccurate divination" is enough to make him lose everything. He must win.
In other words, if the loss is too ugly, it is better to end it on your own.
He suddenly waved his hand and knocked all the dice away from the distance: "At this point, dice and other things are no longer enough to prove that I am an absolutely accurate fortune teller! You must think so too, right? But if you really guessed wrong
Yes, haha..."
"This is the first number! "3"! I am guessing how many trolls your guild's adventurer team "Long Strike in the Morning Sky" and "Spiritual Stone Ladder" killed during the mission!"
He grinned and stared at you intently. There was panic hidden in his confident smile. He really couldn't afford to lose. "What did you guess?"
Coincidentally, your first number "1" also guessed their two teams.
With that said, the two teams rushed over from far and near. They had just returned from completing their mission, and before they even entered the town, they came directly to report to Hathaway. Seeing the formation, they thought they were going to fight, so they came to support aggressively.
"Did the mission go well?"
"Yes, Miss Secretary! After a fierce battle, we defeated three groups of orcs in the nearby mountains and forests, and killed three trolls. Oh, they are really difficult to kill. They are really tenacious and are real monsters."
All members of the two teams survived, but their tired expressions revealed the joy after victory, and they were in good condition. Master Helaran breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and could no longer shout as loudly as before. Silently, he enjoyed it
This is a sweet first victory, but it is too early to feel relieved.
Obviously, no number is your "1".
"I won the first victory. The second number, "5", I guessed..." Mage Helaran paused and looked in the direction of the town, "The number of casualties among Mage Zhai's men. Did he resist?"
It was secondary, but he immersed himself in research. There would be no response until he learned that law enforcement agencies came to knock on the door. Of course, the guards would resist. Only ordinary mercenaries could defeat the law enforcement team. Five of them would be dead or injured.
Number of people.”
After listening, the captain of the law enforcement team folded his arms and smiled beside you without saying a word.
People around were talking in low voices. Is there really an idiot who dares to refuse the law enforcement team to enter and search? Maybe, it is true. Because the law enforcement team is directly under the jurisdiction of the king, but in fact it is driven by Rand. Not only are the selected people the second son and third son of the noble.
The power and force are extremely strong, and they can be said to be the elite of the elite. Almost every mission they perform will encounter very complicated situations, which results in the entire team's experience and quality being extremely high. The important thing is that civilians have nothing to do with the law enforcement team. Zhai Mage is just a mere one.
Common people in the world, I'm afraid they never dreamed that under your protection, there would still be law enforcement teams kicking in the door... To put it bluntly, we should kick out Noomi, Melanie and the like first.
The law enforcement team coming? Nonsense. The personal guard of the home mage will definitely not believe it and will most likely take action.
"Ah, I finally caught him."
The captain of the law enforcement team waved to the distance, signaling his subordinates not to rush away the otaku mage. Soon, the paladins held up two swords and bound the disheveled otaku mage and five personal guards, and squeezed into the crowd, squeezing into you.
Very close to you.
Some things don't need to be said.
It's the right time to employ people. Catching Noomi, Melanie and even Elizabeth will greatly anger you, but arresting the peripheral members is a just right blow. By the way, it may be able to dig into your other crimes as a basis. What's the matter?
Is it more appropriate to control the civilian nobles who are capable but have advocated uprisings and have been repeatedly rebellious? This is the management experience accumulated by feudal society for thousands of years.
The next one is the retired old bishop. He can be charged with whatever crime he wants. If you disobey.
Where is your number "4"?
No.
There was no number "4" in the matter of the House Mage, which made the fortune teller's shoulders relax completely with relief. He fanned his cheeks with the palm of his hand, even though it was not hot at all near where the Mistress of Frost was stationed.
.
Energized, excited, and motivated, the fortune teller was as radiant as if he had fought back despite the catastrophe. His eyes were shining and his chest was puffed up. "It's not your fault. Luck is mysterious and cannot be controlled by people. Divination
It is a science, a technique of the wise, which requires the integration of many other complex knowledge such as intelligence collection, logical reasoning, behavioral psychology, etc. It is not your fault."
"The third number, I guess, is the number of pixies or goblins captured by your guild's "improvised map". 5!"
Hathaway was stunned and blurted out: "Their mission is to drive away, not..." She suddenly stopped mid-sentence, as if she realized that she was not absolutely sure about this new team. In fact, they had not done anything before.
Got into trouble and didn't perform the task accurately.
What is desperate is that the "Improvised Map" has come all the way. Even if they are far away and cannot see their faces clearly, they can still see five light spots that sway with their steps...
Sure enough, they really caught three goblins and two pixies, a total of five. Hathaway was anxious at the time: "You idiot! Why did you catch them!"
"No, we were in self-defense." The bard looked aggrieved, "They flew too fast and kept shooting. Don't worry, Miss Secretary, we didn't kill any of them."
No, this is not a question of whether to kill or not!
Hathaway raised her forehead and confirmed seriously: "Ask a question. If you go to a village that believes in deer as the local deity to perform a mission, and if the deer butt you, will you catch them?"
"No!" the bard replied resolutely.
"We'll bake them and eat them until they succumb! Don't worry about how much we eat!" added his warlock girlfriend.
The dwarf captain was very unhappy: "Just knock him unconscious. Don't offend the villagers."
The halfling murmured that he could safely leave the skinning job to him.
The hahaha laughter came only from the fortune teller, who rose up from the empty river and disappeared into the sparkling water. Need I say anything else? He guessed all three numbers correctly, except for the last number. In fact,
It doesn't mean much anymore. Generally speaking, you may have won this victory, but in the end, he perfectly proved his strength, which was enough. He restored his reputation in front of little Kyle and many audiences.
It once again demonstrates what 100% accuracy is and what true technology is that mere luck cannot compete with.
Things will be much easier to handle later on.
You have won two out of three games, and he has proven himself. Go home and have a good rest first, and then carefully consider whether to work for Little Kyle. Although he is more willing to follow Little Kyle, he first needs to go home and lose himself.
Take back all his reputation, take it back forcefully. That is the foundation of his world.
"...Wait a minute." The captain of "Long Strike Morning Sky" on the side raised his hand and said, "We are also new here, not quite... Let me confirm. The guild does not allow taking prisoners?"
Hathaway waved her hands repeatedly and explained that because the pixies and goblins have special circumstances and serve as mascots, capturing them may cause the druids in the elf homeland to protest. "What do you mean? Did you capture the troll prisoners?"
?" Hathaway found it strange that a large creature like a troll could be captured so easily?
"No, we captured an orc warlord and handed him over to the guards at the gate of the town."
You silently ticked the first number "1" on your note.
Everyone was in an uproar, especially the fortune teller who looked extremely shocked.
It’s not that the orc warlords are so powerful. Since they have defeated the enemy, it is not impossible to capture prisoners, but the point is that there are elves in both the "Long Strike Morning Sky" and "Spiritual Stone Ladder" teams, with a total of four.
Humans and elves never capture orcs.
Hathaway blinked and stared at the adventurer: "Why do you want to take prisoners?"
"We found some strange evidence in the walled city, which is very subtle. Although there are many difficulties, we still hope to pry open this guy's mouth and get some useful information. This is very important." The captain looked at the many outsiders around him.
, implying that it is inconvenient to say more, as the inside story is complicated.
Under special circumstances and with humans and halflings in the team, the elves capturing the orcs became a miraculous result.
"Why is it okay if they catch orcs, but we have to be punished if we catch bugs?" The bard rolled his eyes, "At least I tricked six tree people into coming to the territory. Those are free guards, large and violent maniacs."
The bard asked for Hathaway's praise.
Hathaway whispered something to the sorceress.
The sorceress suddenly went crazy and grabbed her boyfriend's hair. The two of them started fighting in public, leaving their head badly bruised and bloody. It was very ugly.
You silently put a check mark on the third number "6", causing great shock to the onlookers.
No matter what the situation, the tree people are neutral and live in the forest. It is impossible to defend the territory for the humans. This kind of miracle is extremely rare. But in fact, this thing is not unprecedented at all, because the bard is above his head.
There is a corolla that can control fey creatures, so it is possible to capture clever ghosts such as Pixies who are always invisible, and also has the opportunity to fool the tree people, although it is impossible to know what was said specifically at that time. After all, the negotiation skills are bards.
The poet's profession.
The fortune teller found out that you didn't turn the tables on the second number, and was secretly relieved.
The Master Zhai has his head lowered, his mouth is gagged with a rag, and he looks at you feebly from time to time. His eyes seem to be telling you, it doesn't matter if I am taken away, I won't say anything, I will definitely be able to persevere, but no matter how long you can
You have to find a way to get me out. He also saw that if you were in a favorable situation now, you would never let the law enforcement team arrest him. Obviously, the situation is already out of control.
In fact, what Master Zhai thought was right. At this point, you can only let the law enforcement team arrest the person first, and then find a way to fish him out as soon as possible. The purpose of the law enforcement team is not to target small people like Master Zhai, but to
I want to intimidate you and arrest you, and the goal is achieved. It is difficult for you to get people, but imprisonment is completely unimportant. There is a high probability that you can find a way to bail out the otaku mage. If everything goes well, you will still owe one of the five giants.
To be continued...
