Chapter 1075: Post-Apocalyptic Book

~10 min read 1,875 words

Hearing Mr. "Fool's" words, Lady "Justice" was suddenly a little happy.

She felt that Mr. "Fool's" state was a little better.

Lady "Magician" heard this, said no more, and nodded gently:

"Obey your will."

If she were really allowed to pick the spoils of war, she would also choose "Solomon's Mask." The ability of this Grade "0" Sealed Artifact was a good supplement and enhancement for both her and "Judgment," and besides, it could be used as a choice for "Judgment" to jump pathways and become an angel in the future.

As for the potion formula for Sequence 2 "Duke of Entropy" of the "Black Emperor" pathway, Mr. "Fool" had it—he mastered the "Black Emperor" card in the Blasphemy Cards.

"The chaos of the situation in these years, the spread of evil god beliefs, and the frequent occurrence of various events have made Xio, as a 'Chaos Hunter,' digest the potion very quickly, and she is about to complete it. It is time to consider and prepare for the promotion to angel... Hehe, high-level beings of the 'Black Emperor' pathway seem to have the performance of body giantization. Nast is like that, and it is very suitable for Xio to jump over..." Lady "Magician's" thoughts gradually drifted away.

Mr. "Fool" turned to look at "The Hanged Man":

"What is your choice?"

"Respected Mr. 'Fool,' I want the Grade '1' Sealed Artifact formed by the 'Mystic' Beyonder characteristic." "The Hanged Man" had already thought of his choice when Mr. "Fool" introduced the spoils of war.

His ability characteristics and the "Hunter" pathway sealed artifact he got from the treasure vault of the *Cherished Revenge* were more than enough in strength, but lacked the kind of hidden goal achievement.

"Good, 'Merm's Magic Book' belongs to you." "The Fool" cast his gaze toward "Justice."

Although "Justice" did not directly participate in the operation, she wove the mobile phone from the dream for Lu Mian and was always ready to provide mental and spiritual treatment for the personnel participating in the hunt.

In addition, she also made a great contribution to waking up Mr. "Fool" in the dream city, and currently only obtained the revelation related to that ancient giant dragon.

Lady "Justice" smiled and said:

"Mr. 'Fool,' I want the Grade '1' Sealed Artifact formed by the 'Manipulator' Beyonder characteristic. I just happen to owe someone one."

"The Fool" nodded gently, and said to "Temperance" Lady Sharron:

"Protecting the new Silver City and protecting the Rorsted Archipelago is also a contribution. You represent the 'Temperance Faction' and take a share of the spoils of war."

"Temperance" Lady Sharron, wearing a small black soft hat, showed the paper she had materialized.

On it was written:

"Grade '1' Sealed Artifact formed by the 'Mystic' Beyonder characteristic."

Same as I thought... "Chariot" Lu Mian muttered in his heart.

This was based on two reasons:

First, since she was the representative of the "Temperance Faction," she would definitely think that the contribution made by her own force was small and should not choose the sealed artifact formed by the Sequence 3 Beyonder characteristic; second, between "Mystic" and "Alchemist," Beyonders of the "Prisoner" pathway would likely choose the former.

Lu Mian had cooperated with "Temperance" Lady Sharron and "Sword Knight" Maric, and knew what their fighting styles were. "Alchemist" was in the "Generalist" pathway, famous for manufacturing magical items and refining puppets, which didn't match the "Wraiths" very well.

This was not to say that they didn't match in ability. In ability, they were actually very compatible, mainly because the style was not very coordinated. Lu Mian couldn't imagine "Temperance" Lady Sharron possessing a giant robot, holding various postmodern weapons, and blasting enemies with *da-da-da bang-bang-bang*.

"Can, 'Eye of Ten Thousand Laws' will belong to the 'Temperance Faction'." Mr. "Fool" nodded gently.

The last one to make a choice was Mr. "Star" Leonard.

He said in a daze:

"'Alchemist.'

"I want to build a piano that can play by itself..."

What kind of wish is this? Is Mr. "Star" still a literary youth? "Chariot" Lu Mian was a bit puzzled.

Mr. "Fool" said after a few seconds:

"Good, 'Creator's Hammer' is yours."

Seeing that the Great Arcana cards participating in the hunting operation had all chosen their own spoils of war, Lu Mian helped Jenna ask:

"Mr. 'Fool,' how should the mid-to-low sequence Beyonder characteristics and magical items obtained by 'Holy Grail Seven' be distributed?"

The "Fool," shrouded in gray fog, had his voice return to its previous state:

"The 'Mystic' Beyonder characteristic and related materials formed after Ohaiz's death will be given to the three wizards who went to the depths of the Fog Sea. After crushing and reorganizing, this will just happen to help them each increase by one sequence."

This was a decision made before the temporary gathering—the "Mystic" Beyonder characteristic formed by Ohaiz's death was not on the list available for selection just now.

And "Professor" was now a Sequence 5 "Astrologer," and "Periodic Table" and "Prototype" were Sequence 6 "Scroll Professors."

Mr. "Fool" continued:

"The mid-to-low sequence Beyonder characteristics and magical items in 'Holy Grail Seven's' hands will be divided into three parts. One part she keeps for herself, one part is given to 'Holy Grail Two,' and one part is handed over to the Church.

"If they are willing, they can exchange one of the two parts they kept for a Grade '1' Sealed Artifact."

"Yes, Mr. 'Fool'." "Chariot" Lu Mian felt that this distribution plan was very good and had no objections.

This took into account Jenna's lack of items of the same sequence, and also left room for the three witches to spread faith and develop subordinates.

Mr. "Fool" said to "Temperance" Lady Sharron again:

"Hand over the remaining items to the Church for safekeeping and use."

The Church mentioned in those words just now referred to the Fool Church.

"Yes, Mr. 'Fool'." "Temperance" Lady Sharron raised another piece of paper with text written on it.

After she finished responding, rays of light flew out from the gray-white fog behind Mr. "Fool" and fell in front of each Great Arcana card.

Lady "Magician's" was that black gold mask that was asymmetrical to the extreme, making people feel uncomfortable when they saw it, but also possessed a strange majesty;

Lady "Hermit's" was a fist-sized diamond shimmering with holy and wise light, and every cut surface of the diamond seemed to have indifferent and ruthless eyes refracting out;

Lady "Justice's" was an item covered with gray wrinkles, looking like both a brain and a heart;

Mr. "The Hanged Man's" was a thin book made of human skin with many mysterious patterns and symbols on the cover;

"Temperance" Lady's was a transparent, pure, vertical eye of a gemstone with different brilliance on each cut surface;

Mr. "Star's" was a gray-white metal hammer with a complex structure, as if it had multiple functions and was overflowing with mechanical beauty.

The one Lu Mian, "Chariot," got, besides the "Weather Warlock" potion formula in his mind and the "Mystic" Ohaiz Beyonder characteristic and related materials in front of him, was also a yellowish, slightly ancient book.

This book used the kind of parchment that was hard and thick. There were no symbols or characters on the surface, only a little mercury-like brilliance scurrying under the texture of the paper, sometimes emerging, sometimes retracting.

At the same time, information related to the "Post-Apocalyptic Book" suddenly emerged in Lu Mian's mind in a form different from official sealed artifact data:

"0: Perhaps it was formed by the death of a 'Prophet' of the 'Fate' pathway after prophesying a certain future and losing control, or it may come from a more ancient era.

"1: The appearance is an ancient book made of parchment, with mercury-like light spots, and the touch is rough.

"2: There are no characters on this book, but it will randomly display some prophecies. These prophecies are partially true and partially false. If one believes the false prophecy and makes preparations to avoid it or welcome it, it will become true;

"One can write content about different results of certain people and things due to bad luck and good luck on this book with intention, and they will likely become true. Even if the final result does not match the prophecy, it will be approximate;

"If the situation is chaotic, there are many choices, and only a few paths can lead to a good ending, one can open this book, and it will give a revelation. If this revelation can be correctly interpreted, it will lead the inquirer to the best end, otherwise it is very dangerous.

"3: A person without divinity holding this book will immediately be plagued by bad luck and die miserably or become a monster manipulated by this book in a very short time;

"A person with divinity holding this book will suffer misfortune within one hour after use. The degree of misfortune is determined randomly, but it will not lead to death in a short time;

"This book will randomly choose some living creatures within 30 kilometers to give them bad luck;

"This book will intermittently manifest various prophecies related to the holder, most of which are bad, some true, some false. If one believes the false ones and does some things because of them, the false ones will become true.

"4: The method of sealing is to create a space without any living creatures, with a radius of at least 30 kilometers, place this book in the very middle, and press a twenty-sided die on the surface."

Lu Mian, who knew that this information about the "Post-Apocalyptic Book" came from Mr. "Fool," thought with peace of mind about how he should use this Grade "0" Sealed Artifact:

"The misfortune after use can be resolved by a luck-turning ritual or the exchange of fate fragments, and the transferred bad luck can be 'gifted' to the Lucky Pirate...

"Just pretend not to see the intermittent prophecies. Whether they are true or false, just pretend not to see them. Before I had the ability to prophesy, didn't I survive? 'Hunter' and 'Witch' should believe more in their own brains and abilities...

"The problem of randomly giving bad luck to a large range, I have to ask Mr. 'Fool' or Lady 'Magician' for help. Hmm, either deceive the 'Post-Apocalyptic Book' and let it believe that there are no living creatures within a 30-kilometer range, or expand the 'Traveler's Bag' to the size of a city, but in this way, the materials for making the 'Traveler's Bag' must be very special and high-level..."

While Lu Mian was thinking, the "Post-Apocalyptic Book" suddenly flipped.

In the sound of *rustle rustle*, the book stopped at one of the pages, and a line of mercury-colored characters quickly appeared on it:

"In the year 1368, at the end of July, the deep red will descend from the sky."

Immediately after, the numbers at the very front changed, and those mercury wriggled to form new ones:

"In the year 1360, at the end of July, the deep red will descend from the sky."

This... Lu Mian's gaze narrowed as he watched.

It was already the spring of 1359!
