Lord of the Silver Crow

Outside Ashes Manor.

The two men pressed down the brims of their hats and stood a hundred meters away from Ashes Manor.

In the distance of their line of sight, in the center of the manor courtyard, a tall and thin Gothic castle with pointed peaks, which should look quite old, stands in the gradually thickening fog.

This strange scene added a bit of weirdness to the already gloomy, mournful and mysterious castle.

Looking at the huge castle in the distance, the young man in it said:

How should we infiltrate? The leader said that Viscount Diroud is a Extraordinary in the middle sequence.

Hearing his words, the other person, the middle-aged man, also had a serious face:

Be careful, Katesia's rose path and Bassatona's rose path have different abilities.

Once you are discovered, there is absolutely no chance of you ever stepping out of that garden.

Hearing his words, the young man shrank his body:

Then what should we do? How can we confirm whether the Dilude family is the Xingchen family? We can't ask directly, right?

Hearing this, the middle-aged man also sighed:

Most of the thirteen star families have declined, and only a few are left, and the other star family that Catesia can confirm—the Mercury family has also been confirmed to have declined. I didn't even find any occult books in their house and extraordinary materials”

Although it is possible to hide everything related to Extraordinary, it has reached the point of hiding things and cannot appear openly. Even if there are still some materials left, it will not be able to play a mysterious role.

Hearing his words, the young man muttered, It would be great if I could use divination spells, and it would be much easier to complete the task.

As I said, don't use it even once before you step into Sequence 7. Even if you enter Sequence 7, you must be very cautious.

The middle-aged man glanced at him:

Anyone who tried to use the divination ritual before Sequence 7 will die soon. They will suddenly fall to the ground inexplicably, the spiritual mist will be completely lost, and even the 'mystery' will disappear.

Hearing his warning, the young man twisted his mouth:

If only I had chosen the 'Wanderer' path before. Although the Wanderer in Sequence 9 and the Disaster Poet in Sequence 8 cannot actively use divination spells, at least they can passively perceive danger.

Hearing his words, the middle-aged man shook his head:

But apart from these, wanderers and disaster poets don't have any special extraordinary abilities, unless you like the ability to make people hate and retreat.

Forget it, I'm all a magician.

The young man murmured, and turned his gaze back to the strange castle that seemed to be submerged in a sea of ​​fog:

Let's think about how to sneak in. I don't want to be punished by the team leader to go through the fire ring fifty times. Do you remember that the last time Pattaya was punished to go through the fire ring? Zakir's contemptuous eyes were caught by a group of people. A winter dog despises it, I don’t even want it to die!”

Then you can call it Chukik, and let it despise you. It is a Catesia gray tiger, much better than a winter dog.

...Alright, then shall we retreat?

Nonsense, I don't want to do such stupid things as sneaking into the residence of a mid-sequence Extraordinary.

In the dull dream, Yago woke up suddenly with a strong sense of restraint that he couldn't even move his fingers.

Hoo-hoo--

After waking up, the dull feeling in his heart made Yago take a few breaths.

Even after waking up from the dream, Yago still remembered that horrible scene.

In the vast darkness where the stars hung high, the giant creature like a spider, like a black cloud, seemed to be resting on an invisible web with its disproportionately warped spider legs.

When he was surrounded by a sense of confusion, dozens of shining eyes were all looking at him.

The scene of countless mouthparts squirming like tentacles at the same time on the big mouth dripping with mucus is impossible to forget.

The creepy feeling still lingers in his mind, making Yago unforgettable.

Even though he had seen all kinds of monster images in the original world, this instinctive fear that seemed to be engraved into his genes made Yago even wish to use his persuasion skills to completely forget about that figure.

However, he didn't do that.

He didn't know what the creature in that image was, but there was no doubt that it was an important piece of information.

If you roll a big failure in the future, you will most likely see

Forget the lesson and risk repeating the same mistakes.

Never roll your luck if you don't start with a bad outcome.

Yago engraved this sentence deeply in his heart.

Gambling with dogs has absolutely no good results, me

Only halfway through Yago's soliloquy, his vision suddenly blurred.

Once experienced once, that strong sense of stickiness as if stuck in a quagmire came again.

However, this time, instead of sinking, he rose.

There was a sense of relief as if he was about to get out of the quagmire.

He finally understood the specific feeling of the vague sense of relief every time he imitated the gambler's behavior before.

Like coming out of a quagmire.

But at this moment, Yago suddenly realized that the power that allowed him to get out of the quagmire disappeared.

A small part of his body is still in the mud.

When he was struggling hard, trying to get himself out of the quagmire, a card the size of a poker card appeared in his blurred vision.

It's a meditation card!

It was the meditation card that disappeared before his eyes when he stepped into the gambler sequence!

The meditation card pattern sticking out from above, holding six playing cards!

Yago is clearly aware of this.

But at this moment, he suddenly saw that the pattern on the meditation card suddenly disappeared, dissipating like a disturbed mist.

No, it's not disappearing, only the pattern is gone, but the meditation card is still there.

Sure enough, a few seconds later, in Yago's vision, a new pattern appeared on the blurred meditation card.

It was a black top hat.

At the edge of the top hat, there is a right hand with a white glove and a black sleeve, lifting one end of the top hat.

From the sleeve, half of the playing cards with patterns on the back are exposed, and under the top hat, there is an open playing card.

Just as Yago was trying to see the pattern of playing cards under the top hat, the image in front of him suddenly disappeared in an instant.

The sticky feeling that seemed to be stuck in a swamp and the scene in front of him dispersed into mist and disappeared.

As if nothing had happened.

Sitting on his own bed, looking at the hazy dusk falling from the curtain on his quilt, and Elsa who was lying on his bedside, sleeping deeply, Yago fully realized something.

He has fully grasped the power of a gambler.

At this time, it seemed that because of his actions, Elsa opened her eyes and looked at him in a daze.

Good morning, Elsa.

There was a hint of warmth in his heart, and Yago smiled.
