Chapter 290: Fate Tracking
Pulling the power of fate feedback, Avis carefully controlled the weight of the inscription pen, engraving a series of strange black metal runes.
After a moment, a prophetic magic circle shrouded in a faint sense of distortion appeared on the mirror stone floor in the center of the room.
In the center of the large pitch-black magic circle, two distinctive double-moon patterns emit a silver and purple eerie fluorescence, which is particularly eye-catching.
This is a special fate diversion array. Avis plans to use its power to briefly explore the surface of the web of fate and investigate the ins and outs of the whole matter.
He wanted to see if there was some high-level prophet behind this matter.
Taking out a specially treated mystical crystal, Avis lightly touched its surface. The elements of ice and light suddenly surged, crushing it into the finest powder and sprinkling it throughout the magic circle.
When the crystal particles shining like stardust fell, the originally pitch-black lines of the magic circle were suddenly covered with a layer of starlight-like color.
Following Avis's action, the entire ritual array was immediately fully activated.
A strange and mysterious atmosphere slowly spread out from the magic circle.
The other light sources in the room gradually dimmed, and the air began to feel blurry, twisted, and distorted.
Only the faint starlight of the magic circle itself was still radiating without any interference.
Sensing the power of destiny operating in the room, the densely packed amplifying inscriptions on the walls of the room also lit up.
In Avis's perception, as time passed, the interior environment gradually became more distorted and empty, as if it had fallen into the endless dark space.
The ritual circle was like a lonely full moon beneath his feet, and the runes on the surrounding walls were like distant and dim stars against a dark background.
Under the illumination of the moonlight and starlight, Avis saw that his body suddenly became as transparent as crystal.
A line emitting brilliant starlight extended from his body and spread to somewhere far away.
Along this line of starlight, Avis's consciousness seemed to suddenly leave his body and shuttle towards the other end of the line at an almost unimaginable speed.
When Avis' consciousness 'left' his body, the light of the ritual array on the ground suddenly became brighter. The magic crystal placed at the core burned with a magical flame that seemed to have substance, and the magic power contained in it began to be consumed rapidly.
However, Avis could no longer see all of this. In his perception, after a very short period of time, everything around him suddenly changed from pitch black to colorful.
One after another, illusory lines appeared and disappeared in the air, and the line that brought Avis here was one of them.
This is the surface space of the web of fate, the private land and back garden of high-level prophets.
Avis's own ability as a prophet was not enough to support him to enter here. But with the help of secret rituals and a large number of amplification inscriptions, he was able to "smuggle" in briefly.
The price is to transfer the pressure of the Web of Fate completely to the magic circle. He must find the traces of fate he needs before the pre-placed magic crystals burn out, and then leave here.
Otherwise, the huge backlash of the web of fate might cause him to lose the ability to predict forever.
Floating among countless lines with completely different appearances, Anvis began to guide the secret method recorded in the "Mercury Prophecy" to find the line he needed.
After a moment, he suddenly felt something in his heart, and with a thought, his figure disappeared out of thin air.
When he appeared again, he was already in front of a very short azure line.
This is exactly the destiny line of the vortex crystal, and the reason why it is so short is because it is an outsider.
Without wasting any more time, Avis's consciousness lightly touched the line and began to trace it towards its past.
Gradually, he seemed to see the moment when the crystal egg hatched, saw himself putting the egg into the magic circle, saw himself raising the price little by little, and finally succeeded in bidding for the crystal egg...
etc!
After checking here, Avis suddenly stopped.
This paragraph seems to be a little wrong.
When he bought the crystal at the auction house, the line of destiny bent slightly, and then an extra transparent line separated out.
Avis looked gloomy as he watched the thin transparent line extending into the distance, eventually intertwining with another line shrouded in thick fog, representing Fiona.
It was a very sophisticated technique, with no signs of any forced connection, and the two were entangled together naturally.
It even triggered a deep space fluctuation that seemed like a coincidence, causing the space protection array in his laboratory to fail at the critical moment.
But unfortunately, everything that happens will leave traces.
The prophet seemed to have done it perfectly, but that unique sense of manipulation could not be completely erased.
From that transparent line, he sensed a familiar style of prophecy.
At this moment, Avis noticed that the magic circle alarm mechanism in his mind sent a warning.
This was a reflection of the fact that the remaining magic power in the magic circle was less than 20%. After taking a final look at the line, Avis followed the wave of the magic circle without any reluctance and quickly returned to his body.
In the secret room, Avis, who was standing on the side of the magic circle, suddenly moved and slowly opened his eyes.
At the core of the magic circle in front of him, the last bit of magic power in the magic crystal core was completely burned out, turning into a transparent crystal with no magic power.
Someone was indeed involved, and the cleverness of their choice of timing and the sophistication of their manipulation were far beyond those of ordinary high-level prophets.
The manipulator did not choose either Avis or Fiona, but started with the crystal to maximize concealment and avoid the backlash of fate.
Facing the southwest wall, Avis's eyes seemed to penetrate the thick walls and rocks and saw the huge sky city in the distant sky.
"Stargazer..." . ….….Three magic hours later, Avis received the girl who came with two pets in the laboratory.
"Thorium, activate all detection arrays and prepare for scanning. At the same time, call up the hatching records of the crystal eggs."
After letting the two pets return to the hatching area, Avis pulled out a magic light screen to show Fiona the entire process of the crystal egg hatching.
Less than half a day after sneaking out to play, he returned to his familiar room, looking listless.
I'm so angry and cold. When will Longlong be able to stand up?
On the other side of the protective barrier, the little kitten Kate curled up and shivered.
What had it done wrong? Why was it being treated this way?
"Brother, this won't hurt them, right?"
Outside the protective shield, Fiona looked at the two creatures in the shield with a worried look on her face.
"No, Fei, believe me."
Avis grinned and gave her a thumbs-up, while manually inputting instructions to Thorium on the magic light screen.
“Perform a comprehensive ultra-high-density scan and control the detection fluctuation power to below the lethal level.”
Regarding the dragon, since there was only one initial summoning slot, the protagonist had already planned to prepare a better one for himself, so he didn't care much about the experimental subject and just kept it in the laboratory.
If the protagonist does not sign the initial summoning contract with it, its growth rate will inevitably not catch up with the protagonist, and it will be of little use afterwards. It is better to give it to Fiona to raise, so that it can appear later, instead of staying in the laboratory forever.
