Chapter 3: Divination

The sky was already white, and Li Bai was lying on the bed in the hotel, calmly staring at the ceiling.

Stayed up almost all night...... Her mind was filled with the letter and the gifts it contained.

【Eclipse Pterodactyl】

Dragon/Light, LV4, Attack: 1600, Garrison: 1000

Effect: When this card is sent to the graveyard, you can remove a light or dark dragon monster LV7 or higher from the game; After that, if the Graveyard card is excluded from the game, you can get the monster that is excluded from the card's effect back from the exclusion zone.

At first glance, it seems to have a very obscure effect, but as a girl who has mobilized this monster countless times, no one here is more familiar with this card than she is.

As the core accelerator and core operator of the Chaos Dragon deck, the Eclipse Pterodactyl is a hurdle that the Chaos Dragon user cannot overcome, and the powerful retrieval ability it brings is by no means explained by the few words shown on the card, at least in the girl's memory, I don't know how many times she has done a kill with the use of the Eclipse Pterodactyl.

It's incredibly valuable as a gift, but it's not a card that's supposed to be here.

For example, some cards do not involve harmony and excess, but they cannot appear in the original plot, even if it does not affect the balance, the appearance of the eclipse pterodactyl gives her a sense of crisis, and it is impossible for Becas to create this card now - even if this card does not appear in the future plot, let alone now.

But if so...... How did I get this card in my hand?

Could there be another contractor like me who can obtain cards by unconventional means?

"Uncle Fried......"

Muttering indistinct words, Nit, who was lying on the other bed, rolled over, curled up sideways to lie semi-flat, and her arm, which was originally nested on her chest, happened to be thrown on Angela's nose with a muffled sound.

"Hmm!" Poor Angela was sleeping with Zhengxiang, but she was smashed by Nit, she struggled to cover her unusually sore nose, and tears couldn't stop sliding out of the corners of her eyes.

......Seeing this scene clearly, Li Bai's eyelids jumped a few times, she didn't know whether she should vacate the bed for Angela to sleep on, after all, she didn't feel sleepy now.

Angela covered her nose and raised her paws at the dazed black-haired girl, intending to give this guy who was not honest in sleep twice, but seeing the other party's sleeping brows, she slowly put her hand down again.

"When did they get on such a good relationship?" Watching Angela shrug her head and lay back on the quilt after covering Nette, Li Bai finally couldn't help but vomit in his heart.

"Is she a shaky M inside?"

The gloom in my heart was dispelled a lot by this episode, leaning on the head of the bed and thinking for a while, the clueless girl finally fell asleep slowly.

…… Thanks to such a few hours of remedial sleep, her mental state when she woke up was quite acceptable, after all, no matter how little time she had, there was always a difference between sleeping and not sleeping.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Bai stood in front of the courtyard gate at No. 27 Notting Hill Street.

The house in front of her was three floors, the façade was painted ivory white, the two sides were covered with fine vines, so that this white was not dazzling, the shrubs in the front yard were very neatly trimmed, and the lawn was planted with some flowers that she did not recognize.

The girl rubbed her eyes that couldn't be opened, and glanced at the two girls behind her who were in diametrically opposite states with the corner of her eye.

Nate seemed energetic, and would turn her head vigilantly every once in a while - this was to get a fuller view of her surroundings, and Angela was more miserable...... A listless look, although her professional ethics cheered her up, the half-shrugged eyelids proved that its owner had not rested well at all.

"Now that we've bought the gifts, let's go inside." Although she was snickering in her heart, Li Bai couldn't see anything wrong on the surface, she beckoned the two of them to get ready, and then reached out and rang the doorbell on the side of the courtyard gate.

Because they had been notified by phone before departure, the servants in the house were not surprised by their arrival, and the group was welcomed in.

"There seems to be a lot of people here today." After entering the living room and looking around, Li Bai found that they were not the first guests to come, there were already people in different positions talking privately, obviously belonging to different circles.

The maid on the side crooked her chin, and the girl motioned for Nate to hand her the wrapped gift box, and she unceremoniously nestled herself into the soft sofa.

Anyway, Vane hadn't come yet, and she didn't want to get over to the other people to talk about something, so it seemed like a good choice to take the opportunity to squint for a while.

Provided that no one comes to harass her.

"May I ask ......" two boys who looked to be only six or seven years old cautiously approached, "Are you ......" The older boy took out a poster and pointed to the high-spirited white-haired girl on it, the meaning was obvious.

“…… If there isn't a second person with that name, then that person should be me. Seeing that it were two children, Li Bai did not get angry, but gently responded to their request by signing the boys' white shirts and posters, and giving them a Leyaka card each...... The girl didn't know that she had stabbed the hornet's nest this time: seeing the vanguard win the first battle, the other children who had been staying on the side and watching all swarmed around to ask for gifts, most of them had just come into contact with card duels, and their enthusiasm for this game was one of the hottest stages.

The children were all very young, the oldest was only six or seven years old, and Li Bai guessed that they were all friends or playmates of the girl named Shanklee.

"Sister Bai~ Is there a more powerful card? Can you teach me how to be so powerful? ”

"Sister Bai~ You smell so good!"

"Sister Bai~ Let's duel!"

shit…… I knew that I would have pretended to be indifferent.

Although I really want to find an excuse to send away this group of bear children, but their parents are staring at the side, and the girl has to temporarily act as a nanny for this group of children, which is far from easy, especially since there are two ghostly guys who like to drill into her arms, and she has to always be careful not to be eaten by the little children.

This is the bad thing about being famous, the white-haired girl thought miserably.

"I've heard for a long time that the King of Duels is a cute girl, and now it's not wrong to meet at all." A flirtatious voice came from the right.

He was about forty or fifty years old, and he looked good, and the slight wrinkles on his face did not destroy his original handsomeness, but added to it, he wore a white shirt with a hot, straight, fitted black gown, a tie tied to his chest in the most elaborate way, and a walking stick that was 4.5 feet long.

"My name is Siro, beautiful young lady, and you may call me Sir Siro." He owed a bow, politely, but Li Bai was not easily deceived by the appearance—she noticed that since the man appeared, the children gathered around her had fled quickly, and the expression of horror on their faces was as if a slow step would be tainted with some curse.

"You don't look like you're popular with kids." The other party's eyes were like a precise scalpel, and Li Bai, who was staring at him, instinctively rejected him.

"Of course...... Naturally, my affinity can't be compared to yours. Ciro didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in the girl's words, he seemed to be used to being said that, "In fact, not only children, but also many adults don't want to see me. ”

"Oh?" Li Bai raised her hand and signaled that Nette and Angela should not be nervous, she began to become interested in this direct attitude, "Can you tell me why this is the case, Sir Ciro?" ”

Even in the 21st century, when the aristocracy lost power, the canonization of a knight is not so simple, he must have made outstanding contributions to the country or society to obtain such a title, such a person should usually be very popular and respected, no matter how bad it is, it should not be as miserable as the other party describes, so it is natural for her to wonder if this is a lie.

Or is he not a knight at all, just a liar?

"My identity is absolutely real, and you can consult Mr. Thomas about that later." Observing the expression on the girl's face, Ciro hurriedly explained, he attached great importance to Li Bai's opinion of him, "As for that reason...... I'm sure he'll tell you the same too. ”

"Is it......" Li Bai frowned, she hated that others stopped selling guanzi halfway through, "I can see that you have something to do with me, can you tell what it is." ”

"I guess you're going to keep this a secret from me?"

"Not bad at all." Ciro was shocked when he heard her inquiry, and simply sat down on another couch, leaned his cane to the side, and reached out to take out a stack of cards from the inner pocket of his dress.

"My profession may seem a little strange to you." He said, "I'm a soothsayer. ”

"Divination?" Li Bai raised his head and exchanged glances with the other two, and as expected, he was at a loss.

"That's right! Divination! When it came to the field he was good at, a gleam flashed in Ciro's eyes, and he began to explain the wonder of divination to Li Bai and his party, "This is a mysterious field...... A field that most people don't know about! ”

"It's not just a trick of a liar as the rumors say, the real divination is much more advanced, it is based on mathematics and physics, including astrology, earth and other academics, and it is an important way for us to ask for answers to the ethereal future!"

"I've always felt that divination suffers from too much prejudice, and in fact I hate the title too, preferring to call it a prophecy or a prophet ......"

It is estimated that no one has been willing to listen to him quietly for too long, once Ciro's conversation box is opened, it will be out of control, he starts from the constellation, and when it comes to excitement, he will even bring exaggerated body movements to compare, Li Bai was barely able to follow the train of thought at first, but as the other party added more and more professional terms to the conversation, she began to get dizzy.

(I think I already know why this guy isn't popular.) )

From the conversations during this time, she can see that this is indeed a person with real talent and learning, and his insights in many fields are very profound, which is a pity...... His talent was used in the wrong place.

"Excuse me, Sir Siro, can we suspend this discussion?" She looked at the clock hanging on the wall, and saw that the hour hand had unconsciously traveled more than half the distance between 4 o'clock, and was meticulously moving towards 5 o'clock.

“…… From this we can conclude that what did you just say? Xiluo really hasn't expressed his opinions with others for too long, he is still immersed in the mystery of introducing the physiognomy, and he didn't even hear what the girl said just now, no way, Li Bai had to repeat what she just said, not only that, but she also pointed to the clock.

"Ah...... Time is running out, I understand...... I understand, so let's cut to the chase. ”

(Thankfully, he's finally over.) )

Not only Li Bai, but also the two bodyguard girls who were standing aside to listen also had the same feeling - they couldn't sit, and it was simply torturous to stand and listen to something they didn't understand at all.

"The most important purpose of my visit to you is to be able to do a divination for you." He brought the stack of cards he had taken out to the girl again, "In the previous duel city battle, we were fortunate enough to witness the figure that can only be stored in legends, and it was from that moment that I became obsessed with these cards. ”

Ciro unfolded these cards, and Li Bai saw that they were indeed not the carrot cards often used in general divination, there were three kinds of monsters, magic and traps, and they were real dueling cards.

"I think these cards symbolize something...... Something we don't understand. Ciro mysteriously squeezed his eyes at the girl, and began to wash the cards in his hand, he shuffled the cards quickly, and switched at least five ways halfway, some shuffling methods that would obviously damage the quality of the cards seemed to have no side effects in his hands, and when the shuffled cards were placed in front of Li Bai with the back side up, she could see that the faces of these cards were almost intact.

"I don't like to fight with them, so instead of 40, there are 30 of them - 10 of each, which is fair." Ciro's expression became very stern, "Come, please pick one of them." ”

“…… Can I wash it again myself? The girl looked at the pile of cards in front of her suspiciously, it was the first time she had seen this strange way of divination.

"Of course, you can wash it however you want." Xi ** simply agreed to this request, "Remember, you can only pick one." ”

cut the pile of cards on the low table casually, and Li Bai twisted one of them casually.

"Let me see what card ......" Ciro took the card she picked out and flipped it over.

With an emerald green background, the card frame is a cross of the same color.

"Oh, the dead are alive, it's a magic card."

"Uh...... Does this have any special implications? Li Bai stared at the man in front of her curiously, she wanted to see what the other party could say.

If the previous conversation had convinced her of Ciro's talent, his current actions have deepened her suspicions about his mental condition.

"Naturally, there is something different." Ciro stared at this card with a solemn face, and raised his eyes from time to time to look at the girl in front of him, "The magic card is the mildest of the three categories, and being able to draw magic means that you are very kind." ”

(…… This tease. )

"But!" He changed his words, "The resurrection of the dead is not ordinary magic...... In every sense of the word, it's extraordinary. ”

"I would venture to ask." Ciro leaned closer, his voice lowering considerably.

"Have you been in contact with dead people lately?"
