Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 244: Chaotic trump card

"The flop? What card? Do we have a card to flip?" The three of Stant, including Beth, looked at Saul with a bit of resentment. At the same time, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Obviously Saul didn't really do nothing, he was ready to come back empty-handed.

Saul didn't care when he heard the three of them, and waved his hand with a smile.

"Tomorrow, we will deliver these letters in person. This is the last one. I mean we still find someone to deliver. We don’t show up, but we must personally follow behind to ensure that the letters are delivered accurately and whether the territory has any money. It depends on the day after tomorrow."

"The most dangerous part of the whole plan is also the day after tomorrow. After all, there are so many smart people in this world. If the whole thing is to help, then the next thing you may face is to hunt and escape. In short, friends, I need your help."

Saul opened his hands and smiled as if he was about to hug everyone, but the three of Beth's eyes rolled.

Just now Saul said that it is possible for smart people to see through this matter, but until now, the three of them as participants in the whole process have still not understood it. Doesn't it mean that they are not as good as fools.

The key is that now the arena matches have ended for three days, and the various gambling stalls have already closed. The three of Beths really couldn't figure it out. You didn't move when you should shoot the most. Is it useful now that everything is over?

Turning her eyes, Beth felt that the answer should be in the last letter. She decisively reached out and picked out a letter from Sol, looked at Sol’s expression and then opened it, Sol did not refuse, and just sealed it after reading it.

So the three heads eager for an answer just stared at the content of the letter and fell into thinking.

The content of the letter is not too mysterious.

It roughly means that the great astrologer Buu is about to leave Byron Bian, but because his body is getting older, he plans to recruit a group of young apprentices with excellent qualifications in the imperial capital before leaving, and personally teach them the great prophecy.

These young apprentices will be selected from major families, and the number of places is limited. Then, on the day after tomorrow, the intentional family owners are invited to bring two thousand golden eagles to a certain place to talk. It is purely voluntary whether to come or not.

The letter also stated that the Academy of Astrology will be responsible for the safety of the apprentices in the future until the children are returned to the family ten years later. In addition, regardless of how many disciples are recruited in the end, the fee of two thousand golden eagles will be used as the student's board and lodging and tuition in the future.

The extra part will be used to rebuild the eight-pointed astrological tower that has long been buried in the history of the mountain on the top of the Anubis Mountains north of Byron Bian, where the mainland is closest to the sky.

After reading the entire letter, the cheeks of Diller, Beth and others kept twitching, with toothaches on their faces.

Because the story is really...too nonsense and too rough.

Big prophecy? The top of Anubis Mountain? The closest place to the sky? Eight-pointed astrological tower? Two thousand golden eagles? The appetite is not small, but the question is, can those patrons who are comparable to humans be fooled? People are afraid that it's not a pig Or is there too much money to spend?

Stanter and others thought they could finally see the answer, but it was clear that Thor, the **** guy, hadn't gotten to this point yet.

"What the **** did you predict? Why should others believe you?" Beth dangled Thor's arm around him, making Thor's head dizzy.

"I don't know if others will believe it, the answer will be the day after tomorrow." Saul shrugged in Beth's white eyes.

The next day, the four people found two messengers, and one handed them ten letters, and then agreed on a silver coin for the delivery of letters. After the two messengers set foot on the journey, Stant and Diller followed one by one and watched the letters arrive one by one.

Osteen ended his busy day and returned to the smile of his family.

Sitting at the dining table, he hugged his favorite little son on his lap and asked if he had listened to his mother.

After a lot of laughter, Ostan subconsciously glanced behind him.

During the days before the Arena Competition, the old butler would send a mysterious letter from that direction every day.

There are a total of eight letters before and after, exactly corresponding to the eight semi-finals. Each letter will always arrive on time the day before the semi-finals, and then the content of the letter will make predictions about the upcoming matches the next day.

However, what shocked and terrified Osteen was that the predictions in the eight letters were all accurate, even if the tournament progressed to the next sixteen, eighth, four, and won the championship, there was no error.

After the initial predictions of the first three or four letters were verified, Ostan still didn't take it seriously. But as the prediction progressed, and the following events continued to unfold, Ostan suddenly felt a sense of horror.

Take any game out and watch it independently, and the outcome is 50-50, which means that you have a half chance of guessing right. But it's impossible to justify the correct guesses in eight consecutive games and even the accurate prediction of the championship game.

This is not a coin toss. A copper coin has a shield on one side and a garland on the other. Through some practiced techniques, it is not unusual to throw the shield eight times in a row.

The difference between guessing the winner and flipping a coin is that the two things seem to have the same probability, but the nature is different.

The letter predicted that the first game between Bolant and the Zonar Cavaliers would be won by the Zonar Cavaliers, and then the prediction was fulfilled.

If the focus of the second letter is still on the knight Zonar, then there is a possibility that the knight Zonar will be bought off and will deliberately influence the outcome of the event by winning or losing, so as to achieve the purpose of some people behind the scenes.

Osten originally thought so, but the strange thing was that two new contestants were replaced in the second letter, and they made accurate predictions, and the same was true for the third until the final championship.

What shocked Ostan was that the letter made predictions about the eight pairs of different contestants. If the results of the event were to be forced to conform to the predictions in the letter, unless someone bought the eight pairs including the winners. Different contestants.

If in the early years, you paid enough money to hire people to fight the match-offs, this kind of thing would not be impossible.

But Osten knows very well that the current political atmosphere in Byron Bian simply does not allow this to happen, and no family can do it or dare to do it. Unless the king controls everything behind his back, it is impossible and impossible for the king. Meaning to do so.

Moreover, this guy who claimed to be the great astrologer Buu seemed to be an outside force.

By the time of the seventh semi-final, Ostan was already half-believing in this so-called astrology, because even if it was a conspiracy, he couldn't see through the fog behind it.

By the time of the finals, looking at the prediction results in the letter, Ostan couldn't help but placed a 100 Golden Eagle bet on the winner pointed out in the letter. Although it has been emphasized in the letter, if the great astrology is used for profit, it will be invalid.

Osteen’s bet was actually because he wanted to lose. This might prove that this set of so-called astrology was nonsense, but it turned out that his bet was easily doubled.

In the end, Ostan suddenly became a little confused. Does this set of astrology really exist? Can predict the future? But now the whole continent is in darkness, where are the stars? What horoscope do you rely on? If the future can really be predicted, what a terrible power is that?

Another thing that makes Osten puzzled is that if this is all a scam, what would the liar do? He never asked for money from start to finish until the end of the contest.

As of today, the contest has been over for three or four days, and the mysterious letter has never appeared again. But in the past few days, when he came home every day, Osteen would still subconsciously look behind him, wanting to see if the old butler had any new letters in his hands.

Maybe...I won't have it again in the future, right? After all, he disregarded the warning in the letter in the championship game and won by betting. Osteen also couldn't figure out his feelings, whether he was expecting or resisting?

Until today, at the dinner table, Osteen glanced back subconsciously. Then seeing the old butler holding a delicate envelope in his hand, his eyes suddenly condensed, and he couldn't wait to take it in his hand.

Osteen quickly browsed through the contents of the letter, and then fell into deep thought.

Ignoring half of the dinner, he suddenly got up and went to his study, and began to pace around in circles.

The great astrologer recruits apprentices? This seems a bit like a scam, after all, the other party has made a clear request for the amount. Although the use of funds has been listed, Ostan himself is also a story king for such things as empty-mouthed storytelling.

The problem is that others have already shown you the so-called astrology ability through eight matches that are impossible to control, so should you believe it?

It seemed that everything went back and forth and went back to the far point, because if you couldn't see what was going on in those eight events, it was naturally impossible to overthrow the theory of astrology.

The letter said very clearly that the recruitment of apprentices will be carried out in some large families, and the number of places is limited, and it is very intriguing whether they come voluntarily or not.

At least Ostan could see that he was not the only one to receive the letter, nor did he receive any special favor.

It's very simple to end this matter, it's over if you don't respond.

But what if this astrology is true?

Think about it, just send a heir to study for a few years, even if it's just a little bit of fur. You are not required to predict the changes in the continental structure, as long as you can predict your own birth, old age, sickness, death, or family crisis, the investment of two thousand golden eagles is not worth mentioning.

The most important thing is, even if you are not involved in this matter yourself, what if another family sends an heir? A few years later, who knows whether the gap between family and family will be reversed because of this set of **** astrology.

Wandering around in the study until nightfall, Osteen felt that he hadn't thought of anything clearly, instead, there was a mess in his head.

Finally, he recruited the old butler.

"Go get ready..." Osteen hesitated to speak, he suddenly realized that once he got on the boat, his favorite young son was likely to be away from him for about ten years and drifting away alone...

"Prepare two thousand gold coins and give it to me tomorrow morning." In the end, Ostan made a decision. He was going to visit the great astrologer tomorrow according to the statement in the letter.

What Osten didn't know was that on the same day and night, there were nineteen families of the same size who made the same decision with him.
