Super Doctor of the Universe

Chapter 195 You are my greatest fate

On the rostrum of the auction house, a white man wearing a white curly wig was presiding over the auction: "On my left is a Louis XV gold-inlaid stand clock. The starting price is 1.8 million pounds."

"Two million pounds, thank you."

"Two million one million pounds."

Link and Laura walked straight in together. The auction that would be held here at this time was all attended by nobles from the British upper class.

There is a saying that the upper-class British aristocrats have strict aristocratic etiquette. When they eat, they use not one pair of knives and forks, but seventy-three. There are strict rules for the use of each knife and fork.

The process of eating a meal is more troublesome than a complicated craft, and this complicated etiquette has been practiced since childhood. This is an etiquette only known to the British aristocratic circle.

In a conservative country like the United Kingdom, the aristocracy still controls a large amount of the country's resources, so if you want to do big business or get into the upper class, you can't do it without dealing with the aristocrats.

But if they find that you are not from the circle, they will reject you.

Link and Laura found a seat and sat down. Laura gestured to the archaeologist Wilson on the podium.

At this time, he had just finished appraising the Louis XV clock. After seeing Laura, he also made a gesture to Laura.

But Laura's action was thought by the auctioneer on the floor to be a bid, so the man with white curly hair shouted: "Two million and four hundred thousand pounds! This lady bids two million and four hundred thousand pounds!"

Several people looked in Laura's direction, and Laura was slightly surprised. She was not interested in antique clocks, and she didn't want to buy this expensive antique clock. Fortunately, another person made an offer soon.

Sure enough, a middle-aged woman soon raised her hand and won the auction for 2.5 million pounds, which also made Laura slightly relieved. Although she was a rich woman, she was not willing to squander her wealth like this. .

At this time, Wilson, the archaeologist who was at the auction, had already stepped down from behind, and Link and Laura followed.

Mr. Wilson was an old man in his sixties. He was holding a notepad in his hand and said hello: "Laura."

The two became more familiar and hugged each other gently. Wilson glanced at the auction scene that was still going on behind him and said, "Go to my study. It's quieter there."

Wilson's study is filled with clocks almost everywhere. Various swing clocks and similar gadgets filled his study, which made people wonder whether his profession was an archaeologist or a clockmaker.

Of course, this actually shows that he is a top expert in the field of antique clocks, which is why Laura came to him to inquire.

Wilson carefully opened the cloth bag Laura handed him on his desk. Inside was a palm-sized disk with a hollow eye in the middle.

Because it is hollow, you can see flames swimming like water under your eyes, as if there is a soul inside.

After Wilson looked at it for a while, he slowly said: "Laura...this is really rare in the world."

Laura looked serious. She stretched out her hand to open the cover of the disk and said: "There is only one disk that rotates and shines, just like an eye."

Wilson looked at the opened lid. There was a pointer that was slowly turning, with marks around it.

Laura paused for a moment and then continued: "I think it seems to be getting brighter and brighter. And it is different from the clockwise direction of the clock we often know. It seems to be turning counterclockwise. I feel that it is not used to keep time, but instead It’s used to count down the time.”

"you're right……"

"And look at the back of it." Laura turned the Eye of Eternity over in front of Wilson, revealing a tooth-like triangular shape on the back of the disc: "I think it is like some kind of key, this kind of gap It seems to correspond to some kind of mechanism.”

Wilson was silent and didn't know what he was thinking. He stroked his fingers on the tooth-like gaps and said nothing.

Laura said at this time, "I remember my father once said that the Triangle of Divine Power has the Eye of Eternity engraved on it. He said that whoever owns it will have extraordinary power to control time."

Laura paused for a moment and asked, "I found some records from my father. It's called the Triangle of Divine Light, but it didn't say its specific origin. Have you heard of it?"

The old man hesitated for a moment, then said, "No, I haven't heard of it."

He shook his head, put down what he was holding and then stood up and said, "Your father always did things his own way. He was very independent and amazing."

Link looked at Wilson from behind, confirming in his heart that he did have some connection with the villain. He said too many polite words, which showed that his psychological activities on this matter were very complicated. It was not like he had never heard of it.

Wilson walked to the wine cabinet, then picked up a bottle of red wine and asked, "Would you like some wine?"

After Laura shook her head, he put down the bottle and said, "I don't think I can help you, Laura. I don't know anything about this thing. It's a mystery."

Laura and Link said goodbye together. After that, Laura didn't speak. When she went downstairs, her straight breasts were shaking up and down.

Link was calculating the wave function and said with a smile: "Many times, puzzles are like looking for something. Maybe you can't find it when you want to find it. But when you don't look for it deliberately, it will automatically come to you. I call this fate. You are my greatest fate."

Laura's mood improved. She smiled at Link, her black eyes shining like gems: "So you planned to meet me?"

"Of course," Link said with a smile: "In order to see you, I traveled through time and space."

Perhaps just as Link said, after Laura returned home, Wilson called her and introduced Powell to Laura. His official identity was the Royal Legal Advisor, so Link and Laura rushed to the Royal Law School again.

"Miss Laura Crawford, it's my honor to have you here." Powell, who looked to be in his thirties and wore a black suit, introduced himself: "My name is Powell, Royal Counsel."

Laura nodded and asked directly: "I heard that you have a deep study of ancient gods. Mr. Wilson introduced that you are an outstanding archaeologist."

"He flattered me." Powell said: "I once had the honor of meeting your father, and later heard that he passed away. It's really a pity."

The other party was deliberately being polite, but Laura didn't want to talk to him more about this, and directly handed over a stack of photos: "This is the clock I was talking about."

Wilson is an elder that Laura has known for many years and a friend of her father, so Laura gave him the real thing, but facing Powell, even if Link didn't remind her, she was still very cautious.

Powell looked at the pictures and said with some regret: "It's a pity that you only brought pictures."

Then seeing that Laura didn't say anything, Powell continued: "This is really amazing. Did it start ticking when the nine stars were aligned?"

"Yes."

From Laura's answer, Powell confirmed that this was what he was looking for. A smile appeared on his face, and the whole person seemed to relax. He moved back a little and lay on the sofa to look through the photos carefully.

Laura looked at his expression and had doubts in her heart: "I heard that you are a lawyer?"

"Yes." Powell replied.

"So studying clocks is your hobby?" Laura continued to test.

Perhaps he noticed something, Powell said: "Studying clocks is my specialty. We often deal with some antiques, and I have always been fascinated by this kind of clock..."

Realizing that there were some problems with his words, he smiled and changed his words: "But I really don't know the origin of this clock. It's a pity that you only brought photos.

I have never seen such a beautiful thing. But I know nothing. Ignorance is a torture to me, but ignorance brings me happiness."
