Chapter 302 Back then

Mr. Doom has always believed that the death penalty can exist in this world, but it cannot have any other uses other than punishment and warning.

When a country begins using death row inmates to create the gates of hell, the next step is to use serious criminals, then ordinary criminals, and finally just anyone to be the criminal.

The bottom line is broken step by step, and once you start, there is no turning back.

Mr. Luck could not accept this behavior, so he sabotaged several criminal sacrifices by killing all the death row prisoners before the sacrifice.

But because of this behavior, he became a wanted criminal in the Kingdom of Unholy Carols.

However, for a legendary prophecy wizard, if he doesn't want to be caught, it is impossible for him to be caught.

This time he appeared in public just for Harvey.

After listening to Mr. Bad Luck's explanation, Harvey also felt the cruelty of war.

If Ryan hadn't pressed on step by step, Tiefling wouldn't have had to go this far.

After understanding this, Harvey took the initiative to say goodbye. He needed to inform his teacher of Mr. Fortune's message as soon as possible.

But just as Harvey was about to leave, Mr. Fortune called him back: "Wait, take this with you."

Mr. Fortune handed a metal coin to Harvey. No one knew what material the coin was made of. It didn't look like ordinary steel, but it didn't have any magical effect. It looked like a simple handicraft, and the workmanship was not very fine. It looked like a cheap product no matter how you looked at it.

Harvey asked curiously, "What is this coin?"

Mr. Misfortune said with emotion: "Take the bet I made with your teacher back then back to him. He will understand what I mean."

Harvey quickly put the coin away and said goodbye again.

This time, Mr. Bad Luck didn't stop him.

Harvey left the small house and headed straight towards the teleportation array.

It was clearly a heavily guarded military base, but Harvey walked right in without being noticed by anyone.

Those eyes that looked at Harvey were either blinded by the wind and sand or covered with bird droppings. Anyway, all kinds of strange things happened, making Harvey disappear from everyone's eyes.

Harvey looked at the tieflings and could vaguely see many traces of transparent silk threads.

Harvey reached out and fiddled with the threads, but he felt nothing at all, as if it were an illusion.

"The power of destiny is truly miraculous."

Harvey sighed, walked into the teleportation array, adjusted the direction of the teleportation without anyone seeing, and then returned to the desert.

Harvey didn't dare to delay at all. He returned to the underground factory as quickly as possible and found Amber Xiu who was looking at the information.

Catherine's records of the drow's behavior in recent days were very detailed. As Amber watched, he figured out many ways to "educate" the drow, but it would just take some time.

Seeing Harvey coming back, Amber Xiu said strangely: "You're back so soon? He was waiting for you, right?"

Harvey smiled and said, "Teacher guessed correctly. I just arrived at the Tiefling's territory and Mr. Doom is waiting for me."

Amber Xiu couldn't help but complain: "Mr. Doom... this old guy is still quite childish. He uses such a childish name at his age."

"childish?"

Harvey didn't think there was anything wrong with it. There was nothing wrong with a legendary prophecy wizard calling himself Mr. Doom.

Amber Xiu did not explain, and went straight to the point and asked: "What did he ask you to bring back? Was it a verbal message or a handwritten letter?"

Harvey said quickly, "Mr. Misfortune asked me to bring you a message, saying that if you go to him in two months and three days, you will get what you want, teacher. In addition to the message, there are also these two things."

Harvey took out the slate and coins and placed them in front of Amber.

Amber Xiu looked at the two objects in front of him, as if they were still, without any movement for a long time.

Harvey waited quietly by the side. It was ten minutes later that Amber recovered from his memories.

Amber handed the slate to Harvey and said, "Take the slate. This is not for me, but for you."

Harvey said curiously, "Ah? What on earth is this slate?"

Amber Xiu said calmly: "Back then, he and I picked up this stone tablet, and then we became prophecy wizards."

"Is this... something so important? But I can't see anything."

"Of course, because this stone tablet is originally a very ordinary thing." Amber said with emotion: "What really made us two become prophecy wizards was not this stone tablet, but the moment when this stone tablet appeared.

"At a certain moment in life, you encounter something, and then your life takes a major turn. The key is not this stone tablet, but me and him at that time. This thing is a token, which means that the old guy wants to take you as a student. Giving it to me is just to ask if I agree."

Harvey was shocked and said quickly, "Teacher, I haven't thought about this."

"Don't worry. It's normal for a student to have multiple teachers. I've had more than a dozen teachers in my life. There's no rule that says a person can only have one teacher in their lifetime."

Harvey said curiously, "In this case, it refers to different fields, right?"

A person can learn carpentry from a carpenter or learn blacksmithing from a blacksmith, and both can become apprentices, but if there are two teachers for the same job, it will be considered an ethical issue.

Amberxiu and Mr. Fortune are both prophecy wizards. If Harvey also becomes Mr. Fortune's student, then Harvey's reputation will be very bad if the news gets out.

"Don't worry about it. Do you know how rare prophecy mages are? Including my senior brother and you, I have seen less than ten prophecy mages in my life."

Amber Xiu is considered a well-informed man, and he has lived for hundreds of years, but he has only met less than ten of his peers. This shows how rare this profession is.

This is not surprising, as it is unimaginably difficult to get started as a prophecy mage.

Destiny is something you can’t understand, no matter how much you teach it, it’s useless. Just like some people can’t understand that 0.999… is equal to 1, there’s no way to talk about deeper things.

Harvey was very talented. In Amber's opinion, as long as he was not killed, Harvey's achievements in the profession of prophecy mage would far exceed his own. With his extremely high talent and the scarcity of prophecy mages, it was normal for the old man to want to take him in as an apprentice.

"That old guy must have taught you a lot, right?" Amber asked.

Harvey nodded. After seeing the thread of fate, he vaguely grasped this power... No, it should be said that he understood another way to use the power of fate.

Amber Xiu did not ask any further questions, but just warned Harvey: "Don't be greedy, don't do anything reckless. The power of fate can be used, but it cannot be abused, otherwise it will really kill people. Now I can't save you."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Harvey smiled and said, "Don't worry, teacher. I've died once before, so I won't do anything rash."

"Apart from these, is there anything else?" Amber asked.

"Mr. Doom didn't say anything else, but he mentioned that the Tiefling Kingdom is now using criminals as sacrifices to prepare to build more Hell Gates to resist Ryan's invasion."

“Is the situation so serious?”

Amberxiu didn't expect the tieflings to be so impulsive. This is a door that cannot be opened casually. If they continue on this path, they will soon collapse.

Harvey had no specific information and could only repeat Mr. Fortune's words word for word.

"Okay, I get it. You go and do your own thing. I will go find that old guy in two months. Be ready and come with me then." said Amber Xiu.

"I understand, teacher." Harvey agreed, then hesitantly said, "But I have another question."

"What's the problem?"

"I want to know what you guys bet on back then."

Harvey was very curious, how do prophecy wizards make bets? Do they predict each other's future? When Amber heard Harvey's question, he rubbed the metal coin with his fingers and said, "He and I both took out a special item and hid it between each other. Whoever finds the other's hidden item first wins. He gave me his family emblem, and I gave him a special coin. I put his family emblem on the carriage that was leaving the city. It took this guy three days to finally catch up with the carriage, and then he spent another two days to come back to find me."

"So how long did it take you, teacher?" Harvey asked curiously.

"Me? I didn't find it." Amber said frankly.

"ah?"

How can you win without finding it? Harvey was a little confused.

"That bastard threw the coin into the sea in order to win. I know he threw it in, but how can I fish it out?" Amber Xiu said angrily.

“Ah, this…”

It looked like Mr. Luck really wanted to win, but this was a bit unfunny.

"No, since you didn't find it, teacher, how did you win?" Harvey asked.

"Because I have two identical coins, I just took out this coin and said I fished it out of the sea, and he admitted defeat," said Amberxiu.

Harvey: ...

It sounds like the teacher was planning to cheat from the beginning. How insidious.

"Didn't he think you had two coins?" Harvey asked.

An Boxiu smiled and said, "He figured it out later, but the bet was already over by then. In this respect, he is just like you, always a step behind and not very quick-witted. No wonder he wanted to take you in as his student, you two are quite similar in this respect."

Harvey: ...

Why does this sound so unpleasant? "Then what was the bet between you and Mr. Fortune about?"

Two prophecy mages who have both comprehended the power of destiny from the stone tablet, what a wonderful fate. If the two work together, two legendary prophecy mages... it's terrifying to think about it. In this way, the teacher wouldn't have to wander around for most of his life.

Amber Xiu said with emotion: "He was born into a noble family, belonging to the top tiefling family. He invited me to work hard for the whole world, to use this power for everyone, and to repay this gift from fate. But I just wanted to make myself comfortable. We had a fight, and he made a bet with me in order to make me become a great man with him.

“And then he lost.”
