Chapter 238: The Tarot Crowd

Subtitle of this chapter: The Great Health ...... The King of the Great Sword

………………………………………………

"Neo, what card did you give to that brigadier general?"

"Hahaha......" Our Master Yuan took a sip of red wine and washed the braised beef brisket in his mouth.

He opened his mouth and showed six snow-white teeth, and asked with a smile, "John, let me test you." What cards do you think I should give Mr. MacArthur? ”

It was still May 15, 1921, but it was already dinner time and they had returned to their luxury apartment on the banks of the Hudson.

Before that, when Yuan's body was almost "recovered", Ms. Brooks' lawyer finally arrived.

Because the lawyers of both parties had discussed it beforehand, the transfer agreement was signed smoothly without any objections.

From then on, 404 on Fifth Avenue has been the property of the SCP Foundation.

However, if the property is converted into commercial use, Ms. Brooks and her heirs will receive a portion of the proceeds.

For example, in the future, this land will be built into a building, and the rest of the dozens of floors of the building will definitely have to be rented or sold except for the part used by the SCP Foundation itself. Some of these interests belong to Ms. Brooks.

Of course, there are many details to protect the rights and interests of both parties, such as transfer fees, property taxes, insurance, etc., which will not be repeated one by one.

After signing the transfer agreement, everyone naturally wants to make a meal together.

However, MacArthur, who had been preoccupied at this time, suddenly proposed that he, the principal of West Point, was rushing back to school, so he could not stay for dinner.

As soon as the "male host" said this, Yuan Yan and them, especially our Master Yuan, had to say goodbye and leave together for the sake of avoiding suspicion.

However, before parting, MacArthur still whispered a few words to "Master Fool".

"His Majesty the Pope" and the unconverted "His Highness the Devil" are not to mention, what a clever person the "Emperor Majestic" is, and when he sees this situation, he knows that their leader has fooled a new member.

"I guess it's a chariot."

Mr. McCall had not yet spoken, but Mr. Little Baker was the first to speak.

In fact, he is not stupid, even if he didn't realize it before, he really is a fool if he doesn't understand it when he hears this sentence.

Yuan Yanqian raised her eyebrows in surprise and said, "Oh, Louie." I didn't think you'd have studied tarot cards too. ”

"His Majesty the Pope" said as a matter of course: "I am already a 'Pope', of course I have to study this tarot card." Honestly, it's pretty much fun. ”

He's right, tarot cards are really fun.

Later generations believed that tarot cards were invented by the ancient Jews, as evidenced by the fact that the 22 large Arcanals correspond to the 22 letters of Hebrew.

However, at that time, the Jews were greatly influenced by the Egyptians, so the tarot cards absorbed many ancient Egyptian religious symbols. The swords, star coins, scepters, and chalices, which represent the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water, are very similar to the magic weapons held in the hands of the Egyptian gods

Later, when the Jews were conquered by the Roman Empire, Greek culture was very strong, and the Great Acarnal became the Olympian gods, or anything related to them.

After the dominance of Christianity and the collapse of the Roman Empire, the tarot cards were embedded with Christianity and feudal chivalry, and finally took shape in Renaissance Italy in the 14th and 15th centuries, which became what we see today.

Therefore, the tarot card is actually a cultural symbol that is synthesized and mixed with various major religions in the history of Euroaba.

It's probably a little worse than Ceris Mahjong, who has a three-thousand-year-old heritage.

His Majesty the Pope paused and continued: "Isn't the most suitable card for a soldier and a soldier with a bright future to be the chariot? ”

"Hehehe......" "Lord Fool" chuckled a few times and said, "My Majesty, you haven't studied deeply enough." The chariot card symbolizes the balance of instinct and reason. ”

The image of The Chariot is a chariot pulled by a black and white sphinx, and the two monsters symbolize the conflict within the human heart.

"Do you think Mr. MacArthur needs that balance?"

"Well, uncle. Could Mr. Brigadier General be the Grim Reaper? ”

Huang Zongyi, who was sitting on the side this time, said: "A soldier, a high-ranking soldier incarnates as a god of death, it is most appropriate. ”

"Hahaha, I can't imagine that you love learning so much, Very Good!"

He gave a thumbs up and praised his nephew, but immediately changed his tone and criticized: "You didn't read it either." The Grim Reaper, our Mr. MacArthur doesn't deserve it right now......"

"Because this card not only symbolizes death, but also the end."

"So far, I don't see what he can do......"

If Douglas MacArthur can really slaughter Japan to the ground and put an end to the emperor system of the eternal lineage, he will definitely be worthy of the 13th Grim Reaper.

But our Master Yuan can't guarantee that such a situation will definitely occur. What if he did not kill Japan and retained the throne of Emperor Hirohito, as in the original timeline, then what kind of death is he?

Also, the Grim Reaper card is very good for blowing. Yuan felt that there were some people in history who were better suited to this card than MacArthur, so he was ready to keep it and see how it went.

"Okay, no more guessing. I didn't give him the Grand Arcana, I gave him a ......"

"King of Swords!" "His Majesty the Emperor" on the side blurted out, "A person who is ambitious and wants to override everything." You must have given him a sword king! ”

"Hahaha......" "Lord Fool" laughed and raised his glass, "My Majesty, cheers." It seems that I gave you this emperor in the right place! ”

The fourth emperor is the archetype of masculine and logic, and he is also the first card for mankind to begin to develop the law and the social structure. This card represents the creativity and judgment of men.

Mr. John McCall really lived up to this card.

At that time, in order to win over the four friends around him, Yuan Yanqian gave them the status of Great Arcana at the beginning. There's not much to say, it's better to be more reliable than those historical celebrities, or these unknown acquaintances.

However, it was precisely because they were not famous, and history had not proven their abilities, so Master Yuan had to find a way to pull them along.

Not to mention, whether it was the two men present or the other two ladies who brought him surprises.

Now it seems that as long as these four friends can continue to realize their potential in the future, then they are the most important subordinates of the "Fool Lord".

"His Majesty the Emperor" is his important legal adviser.

"His Majesty the Pope" is the economic pillar of his own money.

Her Royal Highness is an important assistant in controlling American culture.

"Your Excellency the Priestess" is a shortcut to influencing American public opinion.
