Chapter 125: Divination House "People who wear white clothes will die."...
"Welcome everyone to watch this episode of the divination column! This time, we have invited the very effective swamp witch!"
"He has obtained the wizard badge many times, and his accurate predictions have saved countless people from suffering..."
A huge mushroom man appeared on the screen. It was brightly colored, with grayish-white dots dotted on its red cap and two pitch-black eyes in front of it.
The human limbs emerge from the branches and are relatively short compared to adults, which looks quite harmonious.
As the mushroom took two steps to the side, a person with a long nose, triangular eyes, and bumpy skin appeared in the middle of the screen. The other person's gender could not be seen, and he wore a pointed wizard hat on his head.
“Ah…”
The swamp witch closed her eyes, waved her hands that were as dry as branches, and made an old whimpering sound from her mouth, as if she was praying for something.
The ugly right hand stroked the transparent crystal ball, constantly changing its movements. After a while, it slowly opened its eyes.
"Anyone who wears white today...will die."
A hoarse voice uttered a prophecy, and the terrifying eyes stared straight at the screen, as if staring at someone in front of the screen.
"Wow! Did you hear that, human friends? The swamp witch gave a very amazing prophecy!"
The mushroom people clapped their hands and cheered exaggeratedly, as if there was nothing wrong with the other party's death prediction.
"This...divination columns usually don't say such scary things..."
Looking at the screen, the short-haired girl muttered softly, "Generally, fortune-telling programs only tell simple fortunes. For example, be careful with water or don't confess your feelings. It's too scary to directly predict life and death..."
She looked at the screen suspiciously, while the only person in white in the room was shaking her legs nervously.
"Die? Will I die?"
She was a young girl, wearing a white high school uniform. She curled up in a corner, biting her nails subconsciously, until her fingers were bleeding.
"Oh, don't be afraid, little girl. These are all lies."
The old man next to him waved his hand and tried to calm the high school student down, "Your most important task now is to study hard and not listen to these nonsense."
"... Then, at the end of this divination column, I will read out the column host's interpretation of today's fortune!"
The mushroom man jumped up and down and moved closer to the screen actively. It took out a crumpled piece of paper and cleared its throat solemnly.
"Aries is not suitable to go out today, and it is likely to have conflicts or quarrels with others. Scorpio should be careful of black things. As for Cancer - you will have good luck today."
At the end of his speech, Mushroom winked playfully and waved at the screen.
"Now, this episode of the divination column ends here. We will see you at the same time tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, the TV screen went black.
The room instantly fell into deathly silence, and no one made a sound.
It really looks like that...
Cecia secretly complained that there was no living thing in this room. She was afraid that the character on TV was the so-called NPC, or the owner of the room.
The black cat said, don't just pay attention to what's in front of you, maybe it was hinting that the owner of the room was on the TV?
"You don't really believe this kind of thing, do you?"
A girl in black came out and looked coldly at everyone in the room.
"These are just tricks for children. They are just ghosts. How old are you? Are you still scared by such things?"
Seeing no one answered, she sneered, put on the headphones hanging around her neck, and then found a corner to sit down, with an attitude that she didn't want to talk to anyone.
Are you playing tricks?
She didn't understand the modern world, but the divination in the Western fantasy world was very effective. The prophecy about pollution was mentioned thousands of years ago.
As for the copy...
Cecilia took a few steps forward and walked in front of the TV.
Since this is a game, they must abide by the "rules of the game". If everything is real, then they shouldn't be here.
The name of a room is usually closely related to the rules of the room. This room is also called the Divination Room...
What is said in the divination column is by no means nonsense.
She raised her hand and tried to touch the TV.
"etc!"
A sound suddenly came from behind her.
"The rules say this TV is important. Are you trying to get everyone killed?"
Cecia turned around and saw a thin young man wearing glasses.
She glanced at the other person, not even bothering to explain, then turned around and touched the TV again, checking it from beginning to end, but found no switches or buttons.
Of course, there was no remote control.
This TV most likely cannot change the program, and they have no way of turning it on or off... Perhaps, this TV exists specifically for broadcasting divination programs.
This way it all makes sense.
The man with glasses felt resentful for being ignored by her, but due to the extremely high fighting power displayed by Cecilia, he did not dare to provoke her and could only swallow his anger.
Secretly praying that Cecia would die for breaking the rules.
Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished.
After checking the TV, Cecia turned around, intact, and looked at the other humans in the room for the first time.
In addition to the man with dreadlocks who was just knocked away by her, there were six other people in the room.
They are: the short-haired girl who is worried about the guy with dreadlocks, the old man who just handed over the handkerchief, the girl in black with headphones, the high school student in white who was predicted to die, the thin guy with glasses... and the middle-aged man with a gloomy face who has never spoken.
This combination is interesting.
Cecilia raised the corners of her mouth and scanned everyone's face.
"You all heard the divination just now. Now, tell us your zodiac signs in order, starting with you."
She pointed to where the short-haired woman was.
"I…I'm a Pisces, and my sign wasn't mentioned."
The short-haired girl still looked timid. She shrank her neck and answered Cecilia's questions carefully.
"Next."
The room fell silent again.
Except for the girl with short hair, everyone else pretended not to hear and no one stood up to answer.
"Are you all deaf? Or is she the only living person in this room?"
Cecia's cold voice rang out in the room, echoing in everyone's ears.
"Very good, you are silent, right?"
She sneered, took out an axe from the system backpack, and swung it out with all her might.
The axe flew out at an extremely fast speed, bringing up a whistling sound. It brushed past the cheek of the man with glasses and fell heavily on the wall of the room, landing accurately between the gaps between several buttons.
Accompanied by a loud noise, even the solid wall was cracked.
"In that case, I don't mind leaving her alone alive."
A cold light flashed in her scarlet eyes, and she slowly walked forward, heading in the direction where the axe fell.
"…Say…I say! Don't kill me!"
As soon as he had a close contact with the axe, a blood mark appeared on the face of the man with glasses. He seemed to have just reacted and fell to the ground in fright, with liquid gradually overflowing from his pants/crotch.
Tsk, that's disgusting.
Cecia took back the axe in disdain and deliberately stepped a few steps away from the other party. "Go ahead."
"I-I'm a Sagittarius, I wasn't mentioned!"
The man with glasses didn't dare to hide anything, he didn't know where Cecia got the axe from. But he knew that from now on, everyone in the room had to obey her orders.
"Next."
Cecilia urged, yawning, without even bothering to lift her eyelids.
"I'm a Capricorn!"
"...Leo."
"I was born on May 12, and I seem to be a Taurus..."
Everyone in the room reported their zodiac signs one by one. The strange thing was that everyone's zodiac sign was different, as if it was deliberately arranged.
"I...I also know his zodiac sign."
The short-haired girl looked timid, but she stood up again and pointed her finger at the unconscious man with dreadlocks.
"He and I were classmates! Although he may not remember me, I remember his zodiac sign... He's an Aries!"
"The fortune-telling column said that Aries is likely to have conflicts or quarrels with others, and his experience just confirmed the content of the fortune-telling."
The short-haired girl glanced at Cecia secretly and whispered, "I think this can also prove that the divination is correct. There are no other clues at the moment, so it is better to trust the divination..."
"She's right, does anyone else have any objections?"
Cecilia looked around, and when they met her gaze, everyone fell silent, and no one dared to resist her.
"Then continue."
"I, I don't know what constellations are. These are things that young people play with. I heard my granddaughter mention it before, but I'm old and can't remember it clearly."
The old man has a hunched back and his aged face is full of traces of time.
"Grandpa, do you remember your birthday?"
Seeing this, the short-haired girl kindly came over and asked.
"Birthday? It seems to be June 20th..."
"That's Gemini's!"
The short-haired girl came to a conclusion and helped her grandfather find a place to sit down.
"Lunar calendar or solar calendar?"
A cold voice suddenly sounded, and the woman in black in the corner had taken off her headphones at some point and was staring at them.
“It’s the lunar calendar.”
Hearing this, the woman in black showed an expression of "I knew it earlier" and continued to ask: "Which year?"
"It should be '43, 1943."
"Let me think..."
The short-haired girl counted on her fingers, trying to figure out the old man's zodiac sign.
"Cancer."
The woman in black gave the answer decisively.
"The lunar calendar is June 20, 1943, which is July 21 in the solar calendar. I am a Cancer."
"It seems so. Thank you, you calculated really quickly!"
The short-haired girl thanked the other person adoringly, and then walked over to the old man.
"Grandpa, you are a Cancer. The divination says that Cancers will have good luck today. Can you..."
The short-haired girl was interrupted before she could finish her words.
Hearing "Cancer", Cecia quickly stepped forward and grabbed the old man's arm.
"Come with me."
She gave the order in a cold voice, not giving any special treatment to the other party just because he was an old man.
"Hey, little kid, how can you be so rude? You don't know how to respect the elders and love——"
The old man swallowed the second half of his sentence.
The sharp axe blade flashed with cold light, less than one centimeter away from his throat. If the opponent just thought about it, he would be beheaded.
"How about you teach me what politeness is?"
When she met those cloudy eyes, a fierce look flashed in her eyes.
