Chapter 49: Alchemy City Flying in the Sky
If Amber was still human, he would have prepared a suicide note after seeing his head being ripped off. But for the undead, losing a head does not necessarily mean death, not to mention that he is a lich, so losing his head is nothing unless his life box is broken.
The question is, who is this beautiful woman as white as a sheet of paper in the picture?
Was it the murderer who cut off his head, or a possible friend in the future? If possible, Amber would like Harvey to predict the future again, even if he spent more coins. However, the goddess of fate is like a high-class green tea who only flirts but never marries. Occasionally, she will lift her skirt to show you some benefits, but if you take the initiative to want to see more, she will instantly become pure and innocent, and then slap you hard.
No prophet can withstand the slap of fate.
Therefore, people with the ability to predict the future follow the same rule: you can never predict the same thing twice in the same time period. Don't even think about finding a bug, changing the angle or detail, because all of these are provocations to fate, and the slap of fate will come as expected.
This is also the rule for predicting the future. I’ve shown it to you, so you have to believe it.
No one can break this rule except the Supreme God.
Therefore, whether Amberxiu was willing or not, he could only continue to check the remaining six fragments.
After experiencing the two extremes of becoming rich overnight and losing his head, Amber was finally able to understand the third fragment.
This is the Iron Slag Embers Bar on South Cross Street in the Alchemy City, but in this future it has become a ruin, as if it was crushed by some huge monster. It was not only completely shattered but also left a deep pit.
"Tsk tsk, this is the price for marrying into the Bone Dragon family and then cheating on her, right? But what does this have to do with the secret of the sewer?"
Amber Xiu was very confused. The family conflict of Headless Brother should not be related to the secret of the sewer, unless, this bar was not smashed by the Bone Dragon Miss.
It was another confusing segment, and Amberxiu could only continue to skip it.
The fourth prophecy fragment is still simple and straightforward. Amber appears in the sewer of the Alchemy City, and seems to be performing some magic ritual, but the picture is fragmented and it is unclear what he is doing. Although the scene is clear, it can only be said that Amber has returned to the sewer. There is no need for prophecy, and you can guess it.
"What a loss! This fragment cost me tens of thousands of gold coins."
Holding back the heartache, Amber looked at the next prophecy fragment again.
The fifth fragment was much less clear than the previous ones, but Amber recognized the person inside.
It was the druid girl who hired Amberxiu to rescue people before. What was her name... Amberxiu recollected and finally remembered the druid girl's name - Naomi Woz.
The main reason is that this surname is a bit special, and it seems to be related to an ancient wizard family, but she is a druid, so it is very likely that it is just a coincidence.
Naomi's future doesn't look good. She is lying in an unknown place covered in blood, and the murderer is standing next to her with a long knife. What makes people feel uncomfortable is the murderer's dress. From the back, he seems to be a druid.
A druid internal conflict? Or did this girl break some rules and was honor-killed by her tribe? And the location of this murder is very strange and looks very familiar.
"Something's wrong. This girl died in the Hall of Wisdom in the Alchemy City?"
The City of Alchemy is managed by the Council of Alchemists, and the place where these high-ranking councilors meet is the Hall of Wisdom. How did this druid girl end up in such a place? Even if there was an internal conflict among the druids, it would be impossible for them to commit murder in such a place.
"The druids who were tricked into the sewers, the murders in the Hall of Wisdom... why are things getting more and more complicated? What on earth are these lunatics planning?"
The last two prophecy fragments seemed to be coherent, and the content displayed on them shocked Amberxiu.
Because the Alchemy City is flying.
It was a city on the verge of collapse, lifted up into the air by some unknown force.
Most of the city has been reduced to ruins, with all kinds of debris, broken buildings and living people constantly falling to the ground.
If there is any difference between the two fragments, it is that a person from the Ryan Empire appears on the last fragment. He should be a holy warrior. He stands at the highest point of the Alchemy City, and people from the Alchemist Council stand beside him, but their faces are blurred and no one knows who they are.
These two fragments undoubtedly contain the most information.
It is not impossible for a city to fly to the sky. Long ago, the goddess of magic allowed mortals to use many high-level spells. At that time, wizards liked to build their own floating cities. However, an accident occurred later, and these floating cities fell one after another, causing a disaster more terrible than a meteor shower.
Amber was not very clear about the specific reason, as it happened before he traveled through time. He only knew that after this historical event, mortals' ability to cast spells was greatly restricted, the goddess of magic would no longer generously share her power with mortals, and things like floating cities disappeared.
Do those crazy people want to turn the Alchemy City into a floating city?
"It doesn't make sense. What's the point of flying in a city like this?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Amber thought this speculation was unreasonable. Those crazy alchemists should not have any idea about flying cities. This was a path that their predecessors had taken, not an innovative move. Without creativity, they could not show the greatness of their alchemy, so they should not spend their time thinking about these things.
Besides, this is a city that focuses on academic and alchemy production. What's the point of flying it, except to increase transportation costs? It 's impossible for such a small city to provide a stable supply of various alchemy materials. It still needs the surrounding small lords to pay taxes to support these alchemists. These invisible ropes firmly bind the alchemy city. Flying it is pure nonsense.
"Unless the Alchemy City is forced to fly... Wait, is it because of the secret of the sewer? Is this thing so dangerous that the entire city needs to fly to avoid it?"
Amber felt that his idea was very likely to be true.
Whatever these lunatics managed to conjure up in the sewers, they ended up screwing up and had to launch the entire city into the air to avoid total destruction.
“That means they’ll screw up in the end.”
Amber felt that he had grasped the key to the matter.
Amber asked Harvey to clean up the laboratory, and he ran to the library, took out some dusty ancient books, and began to read them carefully.
When the news comes from the Alchemy City, a member of the Alchemist Council will come to Ambershu's castle in person to discuss with him how to deal with the Paladin Alan Watson.
When Amber heard the news, he remembered that the headless brother was in a bad mood and wanted to "spar" with Allen. So many hours have passed, is Allen still alive? Is he not disabled?
