Merlin VI made a prophecy before his death, a prophecy known as "The Curse of the Tarot."
The secrets of the world lie within.
The path to liberation lies within this.
Go and find it!
[The twenty-two Major Arcana cards have been found!]
At the same moment, whether it was Sophie kneeling on one knee before the skeletal king, Shirin observing the palace, or the other contestants hiding and fleeing.
Their expressions changed slightly after hearing the announcement.
However, the reaction this time was much smaller compared to the first announcement.
Having learned from their previous experience, the participants did not get excited immediately, but instead carefully considered whether there were any loopholes in their plans.
They were so scared of being scammed that after being brutally beaten, they all became very obedient.
Although there weren't any hidden pitfalls this time, the hints given were still too stingy, not even clearly explaining what the "curse of the tarot" was.
This even made some contestants who originally wanted to use tarot readings feel uneasy, wondering whether they should continue with the readings.
Even with few hints, some information can still be gleaned from them.
There are quite a few smart people.
Even during the strategic shift, the participants did not forget that they were in a competition.
What brought them here?
Is it for experiencing a massively multiplayer role-playing game?
That wasn't the case back then!!!
It's all for winning!
The most common way to win the "Star Chaser" competition is to find the "star" in that competition.
After thinking about tarot cards, I quickly discovered something delightful.
In the Major Arcana of the Tarot, the seventeenth card is "The Star"!
Now, things are clear.
There is a very high chance that as long as we find that "star", we will win!
The atmosphere of the game has changed.
The contestants, who were initially confused, suddenly found their direction and were no longer running around like headless flies.
This is similar to someone suddenly finding a plot item that triggers a world event and drives a version update.
Andrew, who made this great contribution, frowned slightly upon hearing the announcement, but quickly relaxed.
The current situation seems unfavorable to him, the one who discovered the secret, and he appears to have lost a significant advantage.
But in fact, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
The map is too big, and the contestants can only do so much.
Ordinary people have too little impact on the world, and awakened beings can do very little as well.
Even with hints, it would be extremely difficult for Andrew to find the people corresponding to those cards if he were to rely on only one person.
Therefore, even if the authorities don't notify others, Andrew, who has this information, will try every means to release it and pass it on to others.
Only when others muddy the waters can he more easily fish in troubled waters and gain his own benefit.
Andrew knew very well that one person's strength was very limited, and he would inevitably seek allies.
He actually has other advantages as well.
So far, he is the only contestant who knows the full contents of the prophecy book, which is a huge advantage.
"However, when it comes to choosing allies... who should we choose?"
Analyzing the intelligence he had seen earlier, he was somewhat unsure of what to do.
There are indeed a few outstanding contestants among the participants, who are worth recruiting, but there is a possibility that they could be turned around and have the upper hand.
He felt somewhat resistant to both Jia Silin's and Yin Lai's families, always feeling that the other must have some secrets and that he shouldn't get too close.
And the contestants who were weaker than him could only achieve so much...
"Wait a minute, should we go find him?"
A sudden inspiration struck him, and the image of Ning Feng came to mind, bringing a sense of clarity to Andrew.
Its apparent strength is only at the second level, making it easy to manipulate, but it has certain secrets, and its true strength is definitely much greater than that.
and……
"However, what exactly is the background of the identity of the [Sword Bearer]..."
Andrew recalled this perplexing matter.
"If Ning Feng is the [Sword Bearer], then who is the [Sword Bearer] who appeared on the cruise ship as the honorary judge?"
Andrew didn't believe there was anyone who could remain unscathed in front of a group of legends and archmages; that person must be a true legend.
But he was also very clear about the connection between Ning Feng's identity and the swordsman...
"So, the identity of 'Sword Bearer' is a shared identity, and the one who actually appeared in the Inquisition and on the cruise ship was that legendary figure?"
However, whatever the truth may be, that's not something we should be considering right now.
"Let's decipher the mystery while searching for Ning Feng. Hopefully, he hasn't been eliminated yet."
...
...
The moment this announcement appeared, all the live stream viewers saw the same message.
At the same time, they also saw the prophecy "The Curse of the Tarot" that Andrew had discovered:
"The Fool is the beginning of everything."
...
The world is the end of everything.
Compared to the contestants who were completely clueless and just wanted to find the star cards, the audience, with their God's-eye view, were much better able to understand the meaning of the task.
"I understand! So, the mission is to gather all twenty-two people and then summon the dragon, right?"
"There's no rule saying that all twenty-two of them are people, is there? Some of the descriptions don't even look human."
