Chapter 3752 Calamity Card - A Strongman's Legacy
"The sun and the moon are both round, although this is a bit far-fetched, it is indeed worth trying."
Luvia said this.
After the War of the Lustful Ones, the [Breeding] arc transformed into a ring, but the witches gained other things in that war, so now Shad still has six arcs left: [Corruption], [Luck], [Fool], [Ice], [Poverty], and [Beast].
He took out the golden "Luck," first summoning moonlight, then shaping it into new arcs. Currently, although all the arcs are different colors, they are roughly one-third the size of a complete circle, making it easy for Shad to control the size of the "moonlight arcs" he created.
After matching moonlight with [luck], nothing happened:
"I tried it this morning while eating breakfast, but it didn't work. Even if I went to Iluna and asked her to bend the sun gun into an arc to match the curve, I don't think it would work."
Luvia was not disappointed either:
"It would be strange if it worked. Fate isn't so easily restored. The witches' coins won't arrive for another two days. Why don't we go and discuss it with the Prophet Association? They might have a solution."
The idea you dreamt of is very valuable. If we can't find a way to realize it before the coin arrives, I'll use the coin to do a divination later. The Grand Symphony of Fate is scheduled for tomorrow, which will conclude Act Six. There's still a week until the deadline given by the serpent; there's enough time.
Shad nodded, then took two more "Star Dewdrops" from his pocket:
"Here, I made a few more with my own blood last night."
After saying goodbye to Adele last night, he did not leave Vistalin immediately.
Luvia raised an eyebrow:
"Were you that busy last night? First Sylvia and Megan, then you went to the woods, and after that you had to dream for inspiration."
She smiled and said:
“Sylvia told me this morning that although you didn’t have a strange perfume smell when you came back after going out in the middle of the night, you changed your clothes before coming home.”
That was because Adele's scent lingered so strongly on Shad that he had to go to the Moon Sanctuary to wash himself before returning. Thinking of this, the image of Adele kissing his neck and expressing her reluctance to part seemed vivid in Shad's mind, and he quickly tried to banish it from his thoughts:
"With the great battle approaching, it's understandable that we're busy. Where is Claire? I need to talk to her."
As he spoke, Shad took a card out of his pocket. Luvia saw that the back of the card had the image of the Rhodes card, but when Shad flipped it over, it was not the Rhodes card.
The card is inscribed in gilded Dera Rion script at the top:
The Last of the Fatu People
The image below the text is a banquet hall in a snow-covered mountain hall piled with countless strange corpses. However, the banquet hall is very dilapidated, and there are even the skulls of two giant snakes on the edge of the card.
In the very center of the card is a small hill made of corpses and bones, with a wooden staff stuck in the hill and a cow-horned hat hanging from the staff.
Below the front, there are three lines of text:
The tribespeople at the foot of the snow-capped mountains perished as the snow melted.
[He manipulated ice and mountains to slay the powerful being who brought about his own calamity; he hailed from the town of Kyle-Todd.]
Although the tribe's traditions ended here, their indomitable spirit in the face of wind and snow has not been extinguished. These are the last of the Fatu people.
"what is this?"
Luvia asked curiously, then guessed:
"It seems this card presents a very bad ending and is related to that 'what if'?"
Shad neither nodded nor shook his head; the brand-new card in his hand was his haul from the previous night. Previously, the [Calamity Card] could only summon sealed evil entities, and once summoned, it would affect the world.
The new [Calamity Cards] do not seal away evil entities, but rather the power of those strong individuals who left their mark on the apocalyptic era. Since Rhodes cards can be divided into different deck series, then the "Calamity Cards" can naturally also have a second series besides "Apocalyptic Evil Entities".
Last night, after saying goodbye to Adele, while checking the cards, "she" clearly explained to Shad the purpose of these cards:
[Stranger, you have acquired the second Calamity card set - Legacy of the Strong.]
[Place these cards under your pillow, and you can battle powerful opponents in your dreams.]
[By entrusting such cards to suitable individuals, there is a chance that they will acquire the power inherited from a powerful figure.]
Unlike the "Doomsday Evil" series of calamity cards, which cannot be used lightly, "Legacy of the Strong" is not as powerful as the former, but it has no side effects when used.
According to "her," the second series of cards represents the hope left behind by the powerful who survived after civilization was destroyed. This power should have been buried by the yellow sand, but it was given a chance to play a role again because of the arrival of outsiders.
Therefore, even though it was brought from the past to the present, this power is still purely mortal and will not cause the present world to slide into the abyss.
Shad didn't explain the card's origin to Luvia, but the long-haired Luvia should understand. Soon after, Claire arrived at the unicorn's den, took the card from Shad, and paused slightly before even seeing the card itself:
"I have a strange feeling that I am very familiar with this card, just like I am very familiar with my hometown."
After seeing the design and text on the card, she looked at Shad with a puzzled expression. Shad said the following:
"This is something I obtained after contacting 'What If' and the Tower of All Things. Don't worry, this is definitely not a prophecy, just a possibility that will not happen. This card is temporarily in your hand; it may become the key for you to advance to the twelfth rank."
Claire said nothing and put the card into her pocket.
"It really isn't a prophecy, right?"
She then asked Luvia, who, of course, fully supported Shad:
“Absolutely not. But you might have some strange dreams tonight. Remember to write them down when you wake up tomorrow morning; it might be helpful to Shad.”
The "Grand Symphony of Destiny" is scheduled to begin tomorrow, so everyone is very busy today. However, at ten o'clock this morning, Shad still had Vanessa and Bella accompany him to the City Prophet's Association. President Lenorman wasn't there, so the three of them waited for twenty minutes with the old man Zarathustra before President Lenorman finally arrived.
"I'm so sorry, I just went back to headquarters. There's been some news there. A large number of snake-like plague infected people have appeared in Lomari City, which should be related to yesterday's second attack."
He shook his head and didn't continue the conversation.
"Summoner, is this visit for new news, or for something else?"
Shad then explained his idea of a "man-made ring of fate." President Le Norman was not surprised; the association had known the secrets of the ring, the arc, and the dice for many years, and similar ideas had been proposed in the past.
"The association has similar research records, but instead of completing a single arc, it used three arcs to piece together a ring. The reason for choosing three is that the volume of an arc is about one-third of a ring. Moreover, the chosen arcs are not of the same type, but are pieced together with different fates."
Bella asked:
"Has the association succeeded?"
"No, we used some methods, which caused a lot of trouble. So the record was sealed away and wasn't unsealed until the story of fate happened."
Mr. Zarathustra, who was formerly the custodian of the association, knows more about this:
"However, although the experiment failed back then, it was not without its gains. The appearance of those pseudo-ring beasts a few days ago further confirmed the feasibility of creating a man-made Ring of Destiny. The angel in death transformed the arc into a ring, which also proves that the arc still has the potential to transform into a complete ring."
Vanessa then said:
"The Summoner had a brief exchange with that angel, a situation that cannot be replicated. Even if another Death Curve is found, it would not be enough to transform it."
President Le Norman nodded, then asked Shad;
"Summoner, there are some things I'd like to discuss with you privately, things that involve the Association's secrets. Do you have time today? Let's find somewhere else to talk."
Shad certainly has time:
"Are we going to the headquarters of the Prophet's Association?"
"Yes, but it won't take long. The association also has remote teleportation capabilities, so I think we can be back in an hour or two."
Shad then stood up and said to the witches:
"You guys go back first, I'll return to town and meet up with you later."
Vanessa and Bella nodded, and Shad then asked Chairman Le Norman:
"Will Mr. Zarathustra come with us?"
Chairman Le Norman shook his head:
"No, it's just you and me."
Beneath the Time Wheel City Prophet Association branch, Shad saw a tunnel leading to an unknown destination, with railway tracks laid across it and a black locomotive on the tracks.
The locomotive is a typical design of an early steam locomotive from the steam age, but its strong whispering element suggests that it is clearly not a product of the Sixth Age.
"Sage-level Relic - [Locomotive of Roman Station], the relic is divided into two parts: the locomotive and the station sign. Once the locomotive starts, it will definitely reach the location of the station sign. Although the conditions for use are harsh, and the station scene must be built in advance, in today's world where space is so fragile, this is one of the few space-type relics that can still be used at will."
Chairman Le Norman invited Schade to board the locomotive. The interior of this old-fashioned steam locomotive didn't have many operable parts, and the primitive and simple mechanical devices were easy to understand.
"If it weren't for the possibility of other passengers appearing in the front of the vehicle while it's in motion, this relic would actually be the most convenient spatial movement relic. But don't worry, the divination indicates that the next time this relic will cause problems, it will be on the third use. Let's go."
