Chapter 813

"Because 【Fate】 is really too difficult to obtain."

Iluna complained in a low voice.

Luweiya agreed with a smile:

"Yes, 【Fate】 is the most difficult spiritual rune to reach."

But the purple-eyed girl's four core spiritual runes 【Noble】, 【Fate】, 【Destroyer】, and 【Doom】 included 【Fate】. Luweiya is a so-called "natural fortune teller", and her core spiritual runes simply point directly to the profession of "fortune teller". Otherwise, the Fortune Teller Association would not have given her the precious joint training qualification.

Iluna said to Xia De again:

"Tomorrow morning, the Midhillburg diocese will hold a ceremony for me to sublimate. In this way, I can officially become a middle ring, so I am one ring higher than you again."

"Since I met you, you seem to have always been one ring higher than me."

Xia De was also very happy for her. As for Luweiya, she looked at the two with a smile:

"Although there were many accidents in the middle, the matter of the third Chosen One has finally come to an end. Xia De, you need to talk to Sister Devlin next week to inform her of what we are doing. Although the relationship between Sister Devlin and us cannot be like Iluna, that is also a friend who can be trusted."

This passage made Iluna look even happier. The three were still three, and she was still the only Chosen One among them, which was very important to her.

"This trip to Midhillburg was really tiring. I really hope that the fourth Chosen One will not appear so soon."

Iluna leaned on the sofa, looking at Xia De's house very comfortably:

"When I return to Tobesk, let's go to the opera together? It's been a long time since we went to relax and rest together."

She proposed, and Xia De and Luweiya of course both agreed.

"Speaking of which, how is Father Augustus now?"

Xia De asked again.

"I know this. The old priests transferred from the Old Continent returned to their original dioceses in batches on Thursday. The church was worried that the rich death aura in Midhillburg would affect them. Although I will take the steam airship tomorrow, Father Lat Augustus may return here earlier than me."

Xia De nodded, he hadn't forgotten that the priest wanted to talk to him about the topic of "angels".

Iluna and Luweiya continued to talk about the Chosen One. Sister Devlin did not appear again after the Battle of Midhillburg, but the church already knew that this contemporary leader of the 【Spiritual Cult】 was the Chosen One of Death based on Iluna's description.

Although the 【Spiritual Cult】 acts strangely, it is generally a ring warlock group of the kind camp. According to Iluna, the church is trying to contact the cult - this is not difficult, and Sister Devlin, who is likely to be in contact with the Witch Council at present, should not mind contacting the church again.

They were talking about these things. Xia De took out his Rod card deck from his pocket. 【Founding Death】 flew out automatically and then hovered in front of Luweiya. The purple-eyed girl adjusted her focus before she could see the card at close range and reached out to "pick" it off:

"Xia De, how many times do I have to say, even if you have gained the power to manipulate the cards of all things, it is absolutely impossible to be..."

"No, I mean, I will go to the Fortune Teller Association with you in a while. This card needs to be appraised before it can be taken out for use, right?"

Iluna could not stay in Tobesk for long, let alone leave No. 6 St. Deran Square to wander around the city, and soon returned to the ruined tower in Mount Sikar from the basement.

Xia De held Little Mia and went to eat on Silver Cross Avenue with Luweiya, sent Luweiya back to the Fortune Teller Association to work at 1:30 in the afternoon, and then found Vice President Mark of the Association.

The Fortune Teller Association on a rainy day was still bustling. The Rod card appraisal office on the first floor was queuing up just like when Xia De first came in the summer.

Many people recognized the champion of the big city players and waved to him. Vice President Mark was originally dealing with a fake Rod card on the first floor. Hearing that Xia De was here, he temporarily put down his work and walked upstairs with him:

"Mr. Hamilton, haven't seen you for several weeks, what have you been busy with recently?"

Vice President Mark was still so enthusiastic, inviting him to sit in the office upstairs.

Xia De explained his work in the past two months with a smile:

"In the autumn, I was dealing with the last commission taken by Uncle Sparrow before he left. You can't imagine what problems I encountered. There were accidents in the middle. I was forced to fight indecently with a drunkard by the lake in the countryside, but in the end, he was kicked away by me, allowing me to find those two precious butterflies."

Xia De complained about his work, and Vice President Mark said with great emotion:

"The profession of detective is really not easy. Mr. Hamilton, you must pay attention to safety."

Xia De nodded and walked to the third floor with Vice President Cynthia Mark. Seeing no one in the corridor, he whispered:

"I'm here to appraise Rod cards."

The tall and thin middle-aged man blinked and stopped, leaning against the wall:

"You came here specially, so it must not be ordinary playing cards. Very old playing cards? Or very rare special cards?"

"Very old playing cards."

Xia De replied. Vice President Mark took a deep breath and then slowly adjusted his breathing frequency to suppress the rapid heartbeat:

"Is it older than that devil card?"

"Yes."

Xia De nodded again, so the gentleman in front of him widened his eyes;

"It seems this is another big business. Now, you can hand that card to me."

Xia De took 【Founding Death】 out of his pocket and handed it over. The gentleman saw the card face and his body leaned back immediately. But fortunately, there was a wall behind him that had been repainted by the association during the big city player period, so he didn't fall:

"Oh, this is really..."

Breathing heavily, his face flushed with excitement, his trembling hands raised the playing card under the gas lamp, as if he were holding a peerless treasure... Actually, the Founding series Rod cards are indeed priceless peerless treasures.

"Mr. Mark, let's put this card in the association for appraisal, and I will come to pick it up in three days. The association and I are so familiar, I trust you very much."

Xia De can draw 【Founding Death】 from the card pile anytime, anywhere, so balance, darkness, and death do not exist in the possibility of loss.

"No problem, of course no problem. Oh, Founding Death, really didn't expect, tsk tsk, it's really beautiful."

Xia De smiled and looked at the oil painting above Vice President Mark's head, which depicted a middle-aged professor imparting knowledge to students:

"This card is likely to be true, I hope the association can issue an appraisal certificate as soon as possible."

"This is of course. Mr. Hamilton, this is already the 4th Founding series Rod card in your hand, right? Silver Moon, Balance, Darkness, Death."

Vice President Mark groaned and continued to walk to the office with Xia De:

"Let's have two drinks to celebrate, I have good wine from the 1843 vintage produced by the Huntington City Winery in the 'Wine Capital' of Karsenrik."

"Yes, four cards. I want to inquire whether the two 【Founding】 series collected by the association have any plans to sell? Of course I can't afford it, but I still want to understand."

Xia De asked again, Vice President Mark was not surprised by Xia De's idea, but laughed:

"Detective, you are not the first Rod card player who wants to buy those two cards from the association, and definitely not the last one.

The playing cards are currently under the highest security level of the association in the Fortune Teller Association headquarters in Lyon, the capital of the Ragson Principality in the central part of the Karsenrik United Kingdom. The association has long stipulated that those two cards are non-sale items and do not accept any other form of barter."

Xia De was not surprised. If those two 【Founding】 were not non-sale items, they would have been bought long ago. There are many rich and fanatical Rod card players:

"In other words, there is no possibility that I can get those two playing cards?"

"Currently it seems so. However, I can ask President Stan, and we can write a letter to the headquarters together to inquire about the status of those two cards for you."

He opened the office door, the room had good lighting, but it was still raining outside the window.

"Please come in."

"Okay, I don't know what those two cards collected by the association are..."

Mr. Mark recalled:

"One is 【Founding Fate】 discovered from the notes of an ancient fortune teller."

The ancient fortune teller was Mr. Riddle, the "luckiest mortal" who once played cards with the God of Gambling with Xia De in the Terror Castle of the Fifth Era.

"There is also one, found by Mr. Chaneem Rod, the president of the Fortune Teller Association who created the Rod card gameplay a hundred years ago. That is 【Founding Knowledge】."
