On this continent of the main world, there is a saying: the stars in the sky are the reflection of the soul itself. Every soul born in this world will have a star that corresponds to its own destiny and power.
It should be noted that this is not an old story or a romantic legend circulated among astrologers, but a fact.
A fact.
Every person on this continent has a star corresponding to him or her when they are born, and these stars will be recorded, saved and used to verify their identity. In Fang Zheng's eyes, this method is no different from the fingerprint and DNA verification in his own world, but... there are still some differences.
And now, Fang Zheng is here to verify his idea.
According to the memories of the original owner in his mind, Fang Zheng can be sure that if the Holy Kingdom issues a wanted order, it will definitely include the "star pattern" of this body. Just like catching a fugitive, fingerprints must be compared. If your "star pattern" matches that of the wanted criminal, then no matter how you dress up or what you transform into, you will not be able to escape the eyes of the executors.
After learning this, Fang Zheng came up with a very bold idea.
If the birth of a soul corresponds to a star, then the soul of this body itself has died. Does his rebirth mean that a star belonging to him will be born again in the starry sky?
If his guess was correct, then as long as he could obtain the Star Emblem, he could completely eliminate any remaining problems with this body. By then, even if the knights of the Holy Kingdom found him, as long as the Star Emblem didn't match, they wouldn't be able to arrest him - the Holy Kingdom believed in the Goddess of Order, and they couldn't blatantly overturn their own laws and beliefs.
This is the same reason why the prosecutors in his own world cannot bring criminals to court if they cannot find the corresponding fingerprints and DNA. Of course, if you want, you can make it a false case, but then don't blame Fang Zheng for being ruthless.
This was another reason why Fang Zheng came to this city. Formal star emblems were only issued in the city hall. It was also a necessary step for outsiders to live here. After all, not everyone would carry their identity documents around with them. Sometimes, as long as they verified the star emblem and confirmed that they were not on the wanted list, they could at least get a "good citizen certificate."
Fang Zheng clearly remembered the "star pattern" of the original owner of this body, and now all he had to do was to confirm whether his "star pattern" was consistent with that of the original owner. If not, then the plan could continue. If consistent, then Fang Zheng could leave in the shortest possible time. Although it was not Fang Zheng's original intention to run to the wilderness and join those cultists and mercenaries, if it really didn't work out, this was the only way for him to go.
This is it.
Looking at the heavy wooden door in front of him, Fang Zheng took a deep breath, then he reached out and knocked on the door. Soon, an unclear voice came from inside the door.
"Come in."
Hearing the other party's response, Fang Zheng reached out, pushed open the heavy wooden door, and walked into the room.
The room looked a little dim. There was no ceiling above, but a round glass dome. Bookshelves filled with heavy books were placed on both sides of the wall, making the entire astrology room look more like a small library. In the center of the room, there was a heavy and wide desk. Behind the desk sat a short figure. He was wearing a black robe and looked... not much different from those fortune-telling wizards.
"I'm here for astrology certification."
Fang Zheng came to the desk and handed the document in his hand to him. The other party sat on the chair, looked at the document Fang Zheng placed on the desk without moving, and then nodded.
"Please put your hand on the crystal ball and you can start."
The astrologer's voice was a little low, but Fang Zheng didn't care much. He followed his instructions and placed his hands on the crystal ball in front of him. Then, the astrologer also stretched out his hand, placed it on the other side of the crystal ball, and then whispered a few spells.
“Buzz——”
The next moment, the originally transparent crystal ball flashed with light, and then gradually a dark mass emerged. Then, a lot of stars appeared in it. From a distance, it looked like the star map of the Milky Way that Fang Zheng had seen on TV. However... Fang Zheng himself had no idea what this meant.
But the astrologer in front of him didn't seem to be like that. After seeing Fang Zheng's horoscope, he even screamed and stood up.
"Why?!"
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Seeing the astrologer's actions, Fang Zheng's heart tightened, but he still put on a curious expression, stared at the other party and asked. At the same time, Fang Zheng began to silently calculate what he should do next. If his identity was exposed, should he leave directly? Or should he kill the astrologer before leaving?
"Ah, no...it's nothing...it's just..."
The astrologer was completely unaware that his life was in danger. He bent down, stared at the crystal ball carefully, and then muttered to himself.
"This astrological phenomenon... is very rare... um... sir, would you allow me to record it?"
"this……"
After hearing the other party's answer, Fang Zheng finally let go of the worry he had originally raised. He frowned and pretended to be hesitant and thoughtful, but finally asked reluctantly.
“Is this a necessary step?”
"Ah, no, no, no, no, sir."
Hearing Fang Zheng's question, the astrologer waved his hands hastily.
"It's just that this rare astrological phenomenon is very valuable for research, so I wanted to ask if you would allow me to record it."
"Um……"
This time Fang Zheng did not answer immediately. He pretended to be thinking, and secretly recalled the role of astrology. For ordinary people, astrology is something like "fingerprint" and "DNA" verification. For those professionals, astrology is also the source of their power. There are also rumors that some very rare ancient astrologers can predict a person's fate through the trajectory of the stars.
The so-called rare astrological phenomena are actually a bit like those astronomical phenomena that rarely appear in the Founder World, such as supernova explosions. It can be said that these things will not have any impact on the outside world except in professional circles. It's like people in the Founder World are discussing gravitational waves, but for 95% of the general public, it makes no difference whether there is such a thing or not.
"All right."
After thinking for a moment, Fang Zheng nodded. Upon hearing his answer, the astrologer seemed very happy and stood up quickly, thanking Fang Zheng while walking towards the bookshelf next to him.
"Thank you, sir. You are such a good man. I promise that I will never pass on this astrological record to anyone else. By the way, where is my record book... Wow!"
Perhaps because he was too excited, the astrologer accidentally stepped on his robe. He screamed and fell forward, but Fang Zheng, who was next to him, was quick to catch him.
It was not until this time that Fang Zheng realized that something was wrong.
Because he clearly felt the soft touch - it was a touch completely different from what he had imagined.
“Well, that…”
At this moment, the astrologer also raised his head, and the hood fell off his head, revealing a thick, dark brown curly hair and a fair and cute little face.
She was a young girl. From the looks of it, her age was not much different from that of the owner of the body that was being reborn.
Maybe a little smaller.
At this moment, the girl's face was flushed and she was staring at him blankly.
"Are you all right, miss?"
Looking at the other person's expression, Fang Zheng coughed and let go of his right hand. The girl stared at him blankly, and after a moment, she suddenly cried out softly, crouched down and curled up into a ball, holding her head.
“…”
“…”
For a moment, the air became quiet again.
What is going on here?
