Chapter 48: The Dice of Destiny Replaces the Future
The magic circle lights up, and the gold coins on the platform begin to melt rapidly.
Countless lights and shadows lit up, looking like a film of the Alchemy City from various angles, and there were many blurry figures constantly condensing and dissipating.
Harvey said excitedly: "Success! I'm connected to destiny!"
Harvey has indeed made a lot of progress, but it is still a bit difficult for him to control this powerful magic circle.
After these lights and shadows appeared, he felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on him. The huge pressure made Harvey's heart beat faster and his body seemed to tremble.
Amber Xiu immediately reminded him, "Don't resist. You are capturing a fragment of the future, not resisting fate. Don't you believe in fate? Death will come sooner or later. It doesn't matter whether it comes now or not!"
Harvey gave a bitter smile. No matter how much he accepted his fate, it was impossible for him to be indifferent to death. It was easier said than done.
Harvey could only try to concentrate and try to find what he wanted from these ever-changing images.
"The secret of the sewer..."
As Harvey silently recited this, the constantly flickering images began to slow down, the images of the city began to decrease, and the dark and damp sewers began to occupy more space.
"Well done!" Amber praised.
This kid is really talented. I don't know who his teacher is. It is very difficult to get into the school of prophecy. It is rare to have such a smart student. It is really a waste of talent to not keep him around and educate him well, but let him go to be a consultant for a poor little lord.
Thanks to Harvey's efforts, the picture changed more and more slowly, the light and shadow began to freeze, and turned into a fragment flashing with blue light.
Harvey said excitedly: "Success, this is destiny!"
This fragment seemed to be a small piece stolen from the long river of time, constantly playing the same picture.
A blurry figure appeared in the sewer, holding a glowing artifact in his hand. A powerful force descended from the sky, penetrated the earth, and fell into this man. The godhead began to condense, and the phantoms of countless gods appeared. Amid their blessings and curses, a mortal was promoted to a god.
It was a very detailed picture. Apart from the fact that the person who had become a god was blurry and his attributes of the godhead were unclear, all the other details were very real, as if they were really going to happen.
Harvey was about to disperse the magic and end the ritual, but Amber said, "Don't relax. This is a false destiny."
"False destiny?" Harvey said in surprise.
Amber explained: "Yes, the crazy people in the Alchemy City created a false destiny and misled all the creatures with the ability to predict. I met a group of druids and a witch in the sewer before. They were all lured into the sewer by the prophecy.
"Prophecy is a peek into fate. You can't expect every voyeur to see the same scene through the same peephole, unless someone deliberately falsifies it."
Harvey had never thought that there was such a thing as being able to create a false future and deceive all the prophets? What kind of magic was this? It must have surpassed the level of legend, right? "What should we do now?" Harvey asked. He couldn't even tell the truth from the false, let alone find the hidden truth.
"Use your power, the power of the School of Prophecy! Don't tell me that you haven't prepared anything these days. Whether it's for escaping from prison or for killing me, you should have prepared many futures!" said Amber Xiu.
Harvey suddenly felt very embarrassed. It turned out that all his little actions were under Amber's observation.
Preparing for the future is a very mysterious statement, and it is actually very mysterious.
A wizard of the school of prophecy can use meditation to materialize fate, such as turning it into a twenty-sided die.
Before the future arrives, throw the dice and fix the number.
Then, you can use the number of points cast by the dice to replace the future results. Use the dice with a large number of points to replace a bad future and turn it into a good future, and use the dice with a small number of points to replace a lucky future and turn it into a bad future.
What's even more outrageous is that this dice of destiny can not only replace your own future, but also that of others.
When Amberxiu encountered the witch in the sewer before, he used this method to replace the future that the witch randomly teleported to, so that she would always be teleported to a nearby location and could never escape.
This is the power of the prophetic school, to modify the results, just like a god.
No one can tell clearly whether this replaced future is a modification of destiny, or whether the act of replacement itself is destined.
Amber Xiu had done many tests before, but the results only made him lost and he didn't get any answers.
And now, Amber wants Harvey to exchange this future with his own dice.
If this is a false prophecy, it can be smashed with the dice of fate.
Harvey took a deep breath and began to gather his strength.
Dice emitting starlight appeared and began to fly around Harvey, which was his way of materializing his power of prophecy.
Seeing this scene, Amber Xiu was not very happy. He thought unhappily, "Tsk, only five dice... In my plan, at least seven dice are needed to safely shatter this false fate."
Harvey didn't know that Amber's opinion of him had dropped. He was now concentrating on controlling his own dice of fate, trying to use the power of the dice of fate to modify the prophecy fragments in front of him.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
A dice flew out and fell into the debris, causing only ripples.
The picture in the fragments remained the same, and the blurry figure became a god, as if nothing had changed.
Seeing this situation, Harvey made up his mind and threw the remaining four dice of fate over.
This time, the false prophecy fragments finally changed, a large number of cracks appeared, and then exploded completely.
Amber Xiu sighed, and dozens of dice of destiny appeared around him, blasting all the broken futures into even smaller pieces. The entire laboratory was like a rain of light.
Endless fragments of light re-condensed after collapsing and turned into seven tiny crystals, reflecting a different future.
Amber sighed, but finally he had to take action.
However, since he had already given up the way of prophecy, every time he used the power of the school of prophecy, it would become more and more difficult for him to embark on a new path, and he would always be a fake legend.
But now that he had used it, he had no time to feel emotional. Amberxiu hurriedly checked this new future.
On the first fragment, Amber saw a small gold mountain, and millions of gold coins appeared in his laboratory.
Very good, very good, it’s God’s will, you deserve to be rich!
But what does this have to do with the sewer? In the second fragment, a strange beauty with noble temperament but skin as white as paper appeared. She was holding Amber's head... only the head.
The thing that Amberxiu feared most happened.
A future that is favorable to me is God's will. As for a future that is harmful to me, does that mean that my fate is in my own hands?
