Chapter 2213
A palm-sized crystal ball like this is quite convenient to use.
"You can take this crystal ball away." Fate Steinbeck suddenly reminded.
Dak nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
This crystal ball is a gift.
Take it if you want it.
…
The whispers gradually disappeared.
After a while, all the prophets in the front row sat down.
Everyone's attention was naturally focused on the open space in the middle of the platform.
Then, a ray of starlight suddenly fell from the dark and boundless night sky.
In (transfer group \⊥:⑧≤五'_七[⑹⒍^〔三♦,4≈<四陑When the starlight appeared, it was only a dot, but when it fell to the [Star Drop Platform], it was already the size of a person.
The starlight suddenly gathered, and the figure of the owner of the [Star Tower] emerged in the middle of the platform.
The owner of the [Star Tower] is called Edgar Swift, a name that is not easy to remember.
He is over seventy years old, with white hair and beard, but he is full of energy and has a "majestic" aura.
Everyone who looks at him will have the illusion that he is also looking at himself.
After his figure was fully condensed, Edgar Swift, who was wearing a suit, took off his hat, bowed to the people in the field, and said loudly: "Welcome to the Night of Prophecy, I am Edgar Swift."
After speaking, he waved his hand gently, The hat disappeared.
Suddenly, the starlight gathered again behind him, forming a huge book half a meter thick.
"What is that?"
There was a faint sound under the platform.
Dak had the same doubts at that moment, but realized it in a flash.
That book was the [Book of Prophecy].
After unfolding the [Book of Prophecy], Edgar Swift began to talk at length.
His words were exquisite and his words were precise, but they could not cover up the fact that it was a "long and boring" prologue, which was meaningless in itself.
Dak continued to hold [Magic Beast: Eevee] in front of his chest, and his other hand reached down, and there was an extra book in his palm, which was naturally the [Magic Secretary].
Putting the [Magic Secretary] on the table, Dak began to record the whole process.
Then he found that many of the prophecies present The Yan family was actually "fascinated" by what they heard.
There must be something in Edgar Swift's speech.
The prophet benefited a lot from listening to his speech.
But Dak himself was not a very professional prophet, and his interest in divination was not as strong as he thought at the beginning. He could not listen to his speech again.
But among so many people present, except for some followers, he was probably the only one like this.
He observed a little and found that even senior Gina Grant listened very seriously.
"Why don't you pretend? Otherwise, wouldn't it seem out of place?"
Dak rubbed the flesh under the chin of [Magic Beast: Eevee] and thought seriously.
"Boo!" Eevee made a sound of resistance, but Dak still did not stop.
After half an hour, little Eevee Duck kneaded Eevee until he was limp and lay on his knees. Edgar Swift stopped his long speech.
The next moment, there was thunderous applause.
Duck was a little embarrassed, so he grabbed Eevee's paw and clapped it a few times in a pretentious manner.
The applause lasted for a long time, and it was Edgar Swift who took the initiative to signal that it slowly stopped.
He looked around with great satisfaction and gave his speech 99.9 points.
The remaining 0.1 points were deducted from himself for not letting laymen listen carefully.
After the applause completely disappeared, Edgar Swift opened his hands and said loudly:
"Everyone, speak freely! The prophecy night officially begins!"
...
[Prophecy Night] is essentially a multi-person gathering.
There is no set theme or rules, and everyone who is qualified can speak freely.
The only rule is that everyone has to make a prediction, and it is not a mandatory rule.
When the [Prophecy Night] started, the prophets immediately started to discuss.
Edgar Swift's speech was a warm-up, and those who knew the subject would basically have a very strong desire to express themselves after listening to it.
Some even used a crystal ball to soundproof and started divination on the spot.
If the fortune teller is an astrologer, he can even get the right time and place, and it is not impossible to break through the bottleneck.
The atmosphere on the scene was very warm.
Even the audience under the platform actively discussed.
[Prophecy Night] is going perfectly.
…
A quarter of an hour later.
Some people began to stand up and walk to the front of the stage to announce their divination results.
Using a crystal ball, even if the people around are extremely noisy, you can hear his explanation very clearly.
The first prophet who came on stage to speak was well-behaved, and the predictions he made were also common catastrophic predictions. The prediction method was to observe the stars at night, estimate the climate, and thus infer a disaster in a certain place.
Prophecies like these, which are alarming in nature, will be transmitted to the place where the disaster occurred after the prophecy night ends, to remind local residents to prepare for disasters in advance.
He stood on the stage for two more minutes, and when no one refuted the question, he walked off, which was very smooth.
But the first person to come on stage to preach was like a demonstration.
Once the demonstration was over, problems arose.
The second person to take the stage vowed to announce his prophecy, but was completely refuted and lost all face.
Dak also saw the aggressiveness of these prophets for the first time.
Being a prophet is a profession of words, and every prophet is proficient in ventriloquism, and they can spray whatever they say.
The mistake of the second person on stage did not trigger stage fright, and then another prophet came on stage to preach.
The third prophet to take the stage was confident and confidently announced his predictions for everyone to evaluate.
He spoke volumes from beginning to end, and although there were quite a few mixed reviews, most of them were praised.
…
The atmosphere of [Night of Prophecy] was established little by little.
Every prediction made by a prophet will be recorded in the [Book of Prophecy].
Even prophecies that were debunked on the spot were recorded.
If you search carefully, you will find that this [Book of Prophecy] is simply a database of dark history, and it even records many things that cannot be called "prophecies" at all.
But on tonight's [Night of Prophecy], this situation is almost non-existent.
Even the second prophet who took the stage only had a small problem, which led to the final inference being wrong.
Later he returned to power, updated his prophecies, and gained much recognition.
…
There was spit flying on the stage.
The discussion in the audience was intense.
[Night of Prophecy] proceeds in an orderly manner.
During this process.
Edgar Swift, the tower owner of [Star Tower], stood on the stage from beginning to end, perfectly controlling the scene.
However, the predictions made on stage previously were just appetizers.
Most of them are just regional disasters, and they are mainly "natural disasters".
“Natural disaster” may sound scary at first, but it actually refers to disasters caused by nature.
That is, earthquakes, floods, or heavy rainstorms, typhoons, etc.
It is difficult to prevent the occurrence of these disasters, but if it is predicted in advance, professional magisters can be sent to deal with it or deal with the aftermath.
Not to mention saving all lives, at least it can save a few people from dying.
Compared with doomsday predictions such as the destruction of heaven and earth and the freezing of the world, they have naturally
Of course it is small.
But the actual help is not small.
On the contrary, those doomsday prophecies have been heard so much that people’s ears are getting calloused, and they have become less and less taken seriously.
Prophets will not easily pay the price to spy on the path of destiny.
There is less and less practical information that can be truly obtained.
This situation continued until a prophet suddenly triggered the [Apocalypse] at the scene, and changes followed.
[Apocalypse] As the name suggests, it is a revelation that cannot be controlled by subjective will and is guided by a trace of guidance from the dark.
Once the prophet triggers [Apocalypse], it is a formal divination.
When divination is performed, a price must also be paid.
If the price is unbearable, he will die on the spot.
When the prophet triggered the [Apocalypse], there were still people on the stage preaching their own prophecies.
But after a moment, no one paid attention to him anymore - even himself stopped and stared at the prophet who triggered the [Apocalypse].
She was a female seer in her early thirties, and she was dressed in a standard diviner's attire. She was dressed from head to tail, only revealing her eyes under heavy makeup and her straight nose.
One moment she was talking to people around her, and the next moment she suddenly lay back on a chair, twitching all over and foaming at the mouth.
If she weren't surrounded by prophets, she would definitely think she was suffering from epilepsy.
But she did trigger the [Apocalypse], twitching and moaning at the same time, a thin, broken voice, like a devil's murmur, came out of her mouth, which was chilling.
"What is she talking about?"
The young prophets outside the platform couldn't help but ask.
But no one answered him.
Everyone was paying attention to the prophet who triggered the [Apocalypse], trying their best to hear the meaning of her sentence.
This situation continued until she fainted and finally stopped.
The prophet was immediately carried down for treatment.
"quiet!"
Facing the noisy people, [Sage of the Stars] Glinton Rossetti stood up.
He is a fifty-year-old man with a ferocious appearance and a high-pitched voice, which makes people feel very fierce as soon as he speaks.
But after people gradually quieted down, Glinton Rossetti said as softly as possible: "We all know the price of Mamie Willard's [Apocalypse]. She is fine. She is just temporarily comatose. The fastest is half a day, and the lowest is three days. She'll wake up. Then we can ask her what she saw."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone jumped up and retorted: "How long has it been? You are still thinking about this. Glinton, you have no heart!"
Glinton Rossetti said solemnly: "I have a heart, but it's just cold."
The man was suddenly speechless.
Glinton shook his head and asked, "Have you ever had an [Apocalypse]?"
