Chapter 2231

The goblin is a long-lived species. Not only is it favored by time, but it also stays young forever. It is a perfect race that is closer to fantasy than its close relative, the elves.

If there had not been a prior investigation, Dak would not have thought that under that amiable face, there would actually be a mischievous goblin!

But thinking about it this way, it is understandable that she put on a skin and concealed her identity.

After all, the "mischievousness" of the goblins is as famous as their "eternal youth".

If everyone knew that Grandma Maggie of Norwegian Forest was actually a goblin, then her hard-earned personality would completely collapse.

…

"Forget it, just pretend that you know nothing."

Dak looked at Gina Grant and reached a consensus with her with his eyes.

The two stopped talking about Grandma Maggie and waited wholeheartedly for the start of [Prophecy Night].

Dak reached out and grabbed the crystal ball on the table, one in each hand.

This crystal ball is only the size of a palm. Grab it in your hand and inject magic power, and the surrounding sounds will disappear completely in an instant.

"Soundproof crystal."

Dak's heart moved, and he knew the origin of the crystal ball.

Using this crystal ball, you can selectively reduce the sound in some areas and focus only on the specified range.

This is very convenient for concentrating on listening to the leader's speech in a multi-person meeting.

In addition, it can also be used as an ordinary crystal ball.

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 were seated.

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.

When the starlight appeared, it was only a dot, but when it descended 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 completely 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 saying that, he waved lightly, and the hat in his hand disappeared.

Behind him, the starlight suddenly gathered again, and it turned out to be 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 is the [Book of Prophecy].

After unfolding the [Book of Prophecy], Edgar Swift began to speak at length.

His words were exquisite and his words were precise, but it could not hide the fact that it was a "long and boring" preface, which was meaningless in itself.

Dark continued to hold [Magic Beast: Eevee] in front of his chest, and reached down with his other hand. There was a book in his palm, which was naturally the [Magic Book].

Putting the [Magic Book] on the table, Dark began to record the whole process.

Then he found that many prophets present were "fascinated" by it.

There must be something in Edgar Swift's speech.

The prophets benefited a lot from listening to his speech.

But Dark 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.

After a little observation, he found that even senior Gina Grant was listening very seriously.

"Why don't you pretend? Otherwise, wouldn't it seem out of place?"

Dark rubbed the flesh under the chin of [Magic Beast: Eevee] and thought seriously.

"Boo-yi!" Eevee made a sound of resistance, but Dark still did not stop.

After half an hour, the little Eevee was rubbed soft by Dark and lay on his knees. Edgar Swift stopped his long speech.

The next moment, there was thunderous applause.

Dark was mixed in, a little embarrassed, so he grabbed Eevee's paw and clapped 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 a score of 99.9.

The remaining 0.1 point was deducted from himself for not being able to make an amateur listen carefully.

After the applause completely died down, 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 are no established themes and rules, and everyone who is qualified can speak freely.

The only rule is that everyone must make a prophecy, and it is not a mandatory rule.

When [Prophecy Night] begins, the prophets immediately start discussing.

Edgar Swift's speech was a warm-up. After listening to it, people who know the subject will basically have a very strong desire to express themselves.

Some even used a crystal ball to soundproof and started divination on the spot.

If the divination person 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 on 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.

This first prophet who came on stage to preach 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.

Such alarm-like predictions will be transmitted to the place of the incident after the prophecy night is over to remind local residents to prepare for disasters in advance.

He stood on the stage for two more minutes, and when he saw that no one objected to his question, he walked off, which was very smooth.

But the first person who came on stage to preach was just demonstrating.

Once the demonstration was over, the problem came out.

The second person who came on stage announced his prediction with great confidence, but was refuted and humiliated.

Dake also saw the aggressiveness of this group of prophets for the first time.

Prophet is a profession of talking, and every prophet is proficient in ventriloquism and can say anything he wants.

The mistake of the second person on stage did not cause stage fright, and another prophet came on stage to preach.

The third prophet on stage was confident and announced his prediction with full confidence, asking everyone to evaluate.

He spoke meaningfully from beginning to end, and although he received a lot of different reviews, most of them were good reviews.

…

The atmosphere of [Prophecy Night] was established little by little.

Every prediction made by a prophet will be recorded in the [Book of Prophecy].

Even the predictions that were exposed on the spot were recorded.

If you look carefully, you will find that this [Book of Prophecy] is simply a database of black history, and even records many things that cannot be called "prophecies" at all.

However, in tonight's [Prophecy Night], this situation is almost non-existent.

Even the second prophet who went on stage for the second time (Daily Update)〗 Group: "≯㈧５７liu鲁∵×弎⒋""四二, only had a small problem, which led to the final inference error.

Later, he returned to the stage, updated the prophecy, and won a lot of recognition.

…

The stage was full of spit.

The discussion below was intense.

[Prophecy Night] proceeded in an orderly manner.

During this process.

Edgar Swift, the tower master of [Star Tower], stood on the stage from beginning to end and perfectly controlled the scene.

However, the prophecies published on the stage before were just appetizers.

Most of them were just regional disasters, and they were mainly "natural disasters".

"Natural disasters" sound scary at first, but they actually refer 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 they are predicted in advance, professional magicians can be sent to govern or do post-disaster treatment.

Not to mention saving lives, at least it can save a few lives.

They are naturally small compared to doomsday prophecies such as the destruction of heaven and earth and global freezing.

But the help they bring in actual situations is not small.

On the contrary, those doomsday prophecies have been heard so many times that people's ears are calloused, and they are becoming less and less valued.

Prophets will not easily pay the price to spy on the trajectory of fate.

There are fewer and fewer dry goods that can be taken out.

This situation continued until a prophet suddenly triggered [Apocalypse] on the scene, and changes occurred.

[Apocalypse], as the name suggests, is a revelation that cannot be manipulated by subjective will and is guided by a trace of guidance from the dark.

Once the prophet triggers [Apocalypse], it is a formal divination.

At the same time of divination, a price must be paid.

If the price is unbearable, it means death on the spot.

When the prophet triggered the [Apocalypse], someone was still on the stage announcing his prophecy.

But after a moment, no one paid attention to him anymore - even he himself stopped and stared at the prophet who triggered the [Apocalypse].

She was a female prophet in her early thirties, and she was dressed like a standard fortune teller, with a hood from head to toe, revealing only her eyes and straight nose under heavy makeup.
