Chapter 380 Interference with Divination
"'Anti-divination'? Could it be that this box contains..." Xio said in disbelief:
"Fors, you went to rob gold pounds? Which bank? Why did you go alone for such a thing?"
Fors held his forehead and said:
"Xiu! Is that the kind of person I am in your impression?!
"I just seem to have run into someone from Mrs. Anlisa's family... well, the old lady who helped me a lot and led me to extraordinary things. I suspect that she can use divination to confirm some things.
“Although I didn’t lie, I also didn’t confess about the Beyonder characteristics.
"So I want Klein to help... What's your answer? This should be a piece of cake for a professional 'fortune teller', right?" Fors's last sentence was obviously directed to the only fortune teller among the three.
Klein placed the plate on the dining table, lifted up his apron and wiped his hands, and said with some embarrassment:
"That depends on the opponent's strength. If he's at the demigod level... I might not be able to do it..."
“Fuck! Are you showing off? Hurry up! There aren’t that many demigods!” Fors stepped forward and was about to pull his ear hard, but considering the sumptuous dinner and the fact that she needed his help… she showed mercy and just pinched it.
Klein shuddered and said hurriedly:
"Okay! I understand!"
He was about to take out the divination tools, but suddenly he thought of something and said:
"Um, is it 'counter-divination' or 'divination interference'?
"Well, the former means to hide your information by mysterious means, so that if someone tries to divine, the result will be a blank, and no valid information can be obtained.
"The latter is to disguise your information, which manifests itself as a false answer when you are divined...
"Of course, the former requires a very high level of strength. As for me... I can do it, right?" Klein thought of the "Master of Secret Puppetry" in his glove and said confidently.
Fors was surprised and said:
"So many considerations? Which one do you think is better?"
Klein analyzed:
"The former seems ideal and very useful, but for a professional 'fortune teller', not getting any information from divination is an anomaly.
“When I was handling cases in Tingen before, when I really did divination blanks… I encountered extremely horrific and bizarre incidents involving extremely high-ranking items.
"If you just don't want to expose your Beyonder identity, I recommend the second option. It will be enough for me to help you with some interference. What do you think?"
Fors listened very carefully and took note, because her next promotion would be "Astrologer", and the name would have to do with "divination"! If she learned some knowledge early, then she would only have to apply it! She nodded and said:
"Okay, then you can help me interfere. Thank you for your help."
“No trouble!” Klein smiled and took out an extremely pure crystal ball that seemed to be sparkling with starlight from the “traveler’s bag” in his pocket. This was what Fors won in the last card game at Hall’s house. Since she didn’t need it for the time being, she gave it to Klein “first”.
"..." Fors stared at the crystal ball and said unhappily:
"There are so many divination tools, why do you have to use this? Can't a pendulum work?"
Xio, who was standing by, had already taken the plate of braised prawns and was peeling the shells and eating them while watching the two people interacting. Wow, this is so appetizing!
Klein laughed dryly:
"Isn't this the gift you gave me? Wouldn't it be perfect for you to use it? Don't you like me to use it?"
Fors pursed her lips and said, "That's what I said... Forget it, just do your job quickly, and I'll settle the score with you later..."
"Okay!" Klein took out the crystal ball stand and placed it on the table. He then placed his hands on the crystal ball and muttered to himself like a wizard in a TV show. He had wanted to try this divination method for a long time! However, a good crystal ball was very expensive, and he was unwilling to make do with a poor quality one...
Buzz! The crystal ball actually emitted a not-so-strong light!
Klein removed his hands and said confidently:
"Okay, the interference is complete! The other party doesn't have your items, so they definitely can't tell anything!"
"Really?" Fors believed in Klein's divination skills and asked playfully:
"If you were to do the divination, what would you be able to predict?"
"Ah? I don't need to divine for you..." Klein saw Fors's strange expression and added hurriedly:
"Since I did the divination, it shouldn't affect me. Well, if you want to see it, I'll tell you the divination!"
After saying that, he once again placed his hands on the crystal ball and muttered something.
After a while, the sound of water splashing seemed to come from the crystal ball...
"..." The expressions of the three people changed, and Xio said directly:
“Wow, could it be that Klein predicted the scene of Fors taking a bath?”
Fors's face flushed, and then she became extremely angry. She pulled Klein's hand away. However, although a soft light appeared in the crystal ball, no images appeared. She immediately pinched Klein's ear and said,
"You pervert, tell me! What do you usually do with this thing? Peeping? I didn't expect you have this hobby?!"
Klein swallowed and explained:
"What a shame! I swear, I never did anything so obscene! I was just doing a normal divination! Normally, there would be images on the crystal ball, just like the magic mirror divination... but now there is only sound? Is the crystal ball broken? No way, this is the highest level...
"Well, Fors, it may be that I interfered with the divination too much and the effect was too good, causing the subsequent divinations on you to fail! This is a good thing! A good thing!" He always felt that the "crashing" sound was somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he had to explain.
"I'll trust you again!" Fors said fiercely, then she let go of the fortune teller's ear, picked up the old suitcase beside her and walked to the second floor.
"I'll go clean up first. Um, call me when it's time for dinner!"
Xio held the shrimp in one hand and waved the other towards Fors's back, saying:
"Don't worry, I will keep an eye on this guy and prevent him from going to the second floor to peek at you! Just go ahead and take a shower!"
Boom! There was a loud noise coming from the stairs leading to the second floor, as if... someone missed a step and fell. Then a female voice came from there:
"Damn it! Xio, stop doing unnecessary things! I'm fine! I'll be down in a minute!"
Klein and Xio looked at each other, neither knowing what to say.
Fors covered her left calf with a distorted expression. She felt... her bone was broken again. She endured the pain, gritted her teeth but silently took out the seal from Old Blue from her pocket, the "Mutated Sun Holy Emblem", injected spirituality into it, and healed herself again.
