"Final Destiny", outside the Star Forest.

Spider lair.

Silk screens are everywhere here, but there are faint signs of being damaged.

If you stop and listen carefully, you can still hear the sound of spiders crawling on the silk web.

Lan Shi bowed his waist, stood on tiptoes, and walked cautiously inside.

Next to him, the young man in red clothes and blue trousers straightened his back and stepped directly through the silk net with his feet, turning a blind eye to the spiders around him.

"Little guy, do you have any common sense? The first half of this nest is full of blue-striped spiders. They like to set up webs at high places. As long as they don't hurt them, they won't attack you at all. Don't go so... sneaking."

He turned to look at the young man wearing headphones beside him, and there was helplessness that could not be concealed in his words.

"Besides, there is me - if something goes wrong, I will protect you."

He said, pulling off the headphones of the boy next to him.

"It's not good to cover one's ears and steal the bell."

Stopping in his tracks, the Fool grabbed the boy with headphones who was nervous and about to continue walking forward.

"Ah! Ghost!!"

Lan Shi immediately screamed. This sound was particularly harsh in the dark and damp cave.

If it weren't for the Hanged Man pulling him, he might have had a close contact with the wet ground.

The Hanged Man shook his head, feeling even more helpless now.

Who knows that his chosen one in this world is such a timid and cowardly person. It was really difficult for him to muster up the courage to use that God-given ability that might really hurt him.

I'm afraid that when I used that ability, I was scared to death, right?

This is not okay.

So as soon as this guy appeared, he was released and took the Chosen One to visit the spider lair.

It can also be regarded as...a kind of exercise.

"Don't keep screaming. The real threat has not yet appeared, and I will be scared to death by you."

The Hanged Man straightened Lan Shi upright, and used his other hand to pick out his ear in an imageless manner.

"But I'm just scared! Do you know why although the spider lair is outside the Star Forest, few people set foot there?!"

"Because some players have really been scared crazy by the things inside! Scared crazy!! Do you understand the horror of this lair?!"

Lan Shi screamed louder.

Along the way, the Hanged Man had heard him emphasize this no less than ten times.

"You don't understand at all! You just think there's nothing to be afraid of. You don't understand. Maybe if I go on this trip with you, I will be affected too!!"

"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what may happen, right?! I can't go on anymore!! If you force me again, I will...I will log off and never appear in this world again!!!"

This was considered a threat, but fortunately, although this little guy was very timid, he didn't say anything wrong and ran away.

He could do it, but he didn't do it. Instead, he emphasized it over and over again.

The Hanged Man was silent for a moment, then looked at Lan Shi, who seemed to be trembling all over, and finally relaxed.

"Okay~"

He shrugged and said.

"Then we have to...retrace our steps."

Lan Shi's eyes lit up and he looked at the young man beside him, "Really?"

He saw the Hanged Man nod quickly.

"Then - then I count three, two, and one, and we all have to turn back?"

He said, holding on to the earphones that had fallen off his neck, a little cautiously.

The hanging man holds his forehead, which is quite ceremonial.

But he nodded anyway.

Lan Shi breathed a sigh of relief and cleared his throat, "Then-"

"three--"

"two--"

"one!"

As the words fell, he turned around impatiently.

"Ah! Ghost ghost ghost!!"

A figure stood quietly in front of him. In the dim light of the lair, the white robe from head to toe was vaguely visible, causing his brain to shut down instantly.

His body leaned back uncontrollably, and the Hanged Man wordlessly reached out his hand and pulled him back.

He didn't expect that such an action of falling on the ground with a sense of beauty lacking in the cerebellum could be seen on his chosen one many times in a short period of time.

It's a bit embarrassing.

But fortunately, he is not a face-saving person.

Just throw it away.

"Don't think everyone is a ghost...can you take a closer look?"

The Hanged Man glanced at the person in front of him and asked Lan Shi to calm down.

Wiping his eyes, Lan Shi suppressed the fear in his heart and looked at it from the player's perspective.

"Female...priestess? Are you...priestess? If I remember correctly, this should also exist in the tarot cards. She...why, how come she appears here?"

The priestess had a calm and gentle aura around her, which made him take a closer look, and most of the fear in his heart was reduced.

Pulling the Hanged Man beside him, Lan Shi asked curiously.

The priestess had a vision of the surrounding environment, and when she looked at the Hanged Man, she was already a little surprised.

"Is this... a spider lair? I really didn't expect you to come here and bring a... player with you."

According to her inquiry about the Book of Pure White, in this spider lair, there is a prop that may harm the player's core - the Eye of Terror.

She didn't know the details, but it could be classified into the same category as "slave Gu", and in her eyes, they were all "taboo items".

Did the Hanged Man choose to come here to destroy the "Eye of Terror"?

This conjecture quickly emerged in the mind of the priestess.

Just... why bring such a timid... player?

This doesn't seem to provide any help.

The Hanged Man smiled, and his attitude towards the priestess was much better.

"Priestess, if you don't mind, we can talk while we walk."

"Maybe you have a lot of questions, maybe we don't communicate often, but what you want to know...I won't hide it."

He said it very politely.

The priestess was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the cobweb-covered nest, and nodded.

Lan Shi glanced at the Hanged Man and said softly.

It turns out that this guy can also soften his attitude... He has to be a priestess, right?

But when the Hanged Man's sight swept over him, he lowered his head and acted like a turtle.

Don't make this guy unhappy and change your mind again.

"I want to know why you appeared, because you know, you are not in the sequence where you are supposed to appear."

The priestess gently lifted the cobwebs in front of her and asked.

The cobwebs inevitably wrapped around her robe, but the next moment, they seemed to be attached to something smooth, staying briefly before sliding to the ground.

The Hanged Man's answer was very quick. He pointed at Lan Shi beside him.

"because of him."

Lan Shi's feet paused, and then he was pulled forward by the Hanged Man.

The priestess looked at the boy with the headphones, thoughtfully.

"This will introduce a new concept - the Chosen One."

"Lan Shi is the chosen one to succeed the Hanged Man Card."

"That is, my Chosen One, and all Tarot Card Successors have their own Chosen One. If the Successor of Tarot Card Power is summoned, the exclusive Chosen One can be regarded as an ordinary player."

"If the successor to the power of the Tarot cards has not yet been summoned, and his exclusive chosen one meets the opportunity of a certain 'God-given skill', driven by the power of the world, he can achieve the purpose of unlimited summons."

"Priestess, what I can tell you is that existences summoned by order and existences summoned in response to opportunities have different rules to abide by."

"This is a hidden rule."

As the Hanged Man spoke, he leaned close to the priestess's ear, and while telling the hidden rules, he did not forget to complain.

"You know, the world always likes to make these external and internal rules, which is really unpredictable."
