Admiral Raiders Diary

Fortune-telling has been a popular profession since the beginning of human records.Although the physiological structure of human beings is different from that of the earth age, it is human instinct to seek good luck and avoid bad luck, so this ancient profession is still very popular.

In fact, the empire has no restrictions on this kind of superstitious thinking. There are several famous numerologists in the capital planet, and these numerologists are deeply supported by dignitaries.But this person chooses to tell fortunes in the black market, so the calculations are naturally invisible.

Zhuang Wanwan nodded with her ugly mask on.Zhuang Wanwan behind the mask was a little excited. She herself liked to study these mysterious things, and she had never really seen a fortune teller before, so she was so curious.

The two walked towards the fortune-telling booth. The banners were very long and dense. Olivia reached out and pushed aside the scattered banners blocking the way, and walked in with Zhuang Wanwan.

There is a room behind the cloth strip, the door of that room is closed, and there is no sound.

Olivia and Zhuang Wanwan looked at each other, and Olivia knocked on the door, "Is there anyone?"

The two waited for a while, but there was no movement and no answer.

Olivia knocked on the door again, and raised her voice and asked, "Is there anyone inside?"

As soon as Olivia finished speaking, a gust of cold wind blew from behind the two of them, "Are you here for fortune-telling?" An old woman's voice sounded like she was pulling a broken bellows from behind them.

Both Olivia and Zhuang Wanwan were taken aback.The two turned their heads together, and saw a ragged old woman lift up the banners at the door and walk in.

The old woman approached tremblingly with a cane of invisible material, Zhuang Wanwan couldn't help taking a step back.

Olivia stood in front of Zhuang Wanwan, and said to the old woman, "Yes."

The old woman walked slowly to Olivia and Zhuang Wanwan while coughing earth-shatteringly.The two made way to the side, and gave up the position of the door.

The mother-in-law pushed open the door and walked in.After hearing a coughing sound from inside that seemed to cough up all the heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys, the old woman said in a broken voice, "Come in."

Looking at the dark room, Zhuang Wanwan took Olivia's arm with both hands.Olivia patted Zhuang Wanwan's hand lightly to make her relax, and the two stepped into the room together.

The two of them had just entered when there was a "squeak" and a small thing jumped over Zhuang Wanwan's instep.Zhuang Wanwan's hairs stood on end in fright, and she almost cried out.

"Little baby, come here, don't scare the guests." The old woman said in the dark.

"Crack——" With the sound of the voice, there was a glimmer of light in the darkness.A small flame appeared in front of the old woman.

"Squeak——" the sound of a small animal came from the old woman's shoulder, and under the faint yellow flame, Zhuang Wanwan realized that it was an animal with a small body and a big tail.

Then the one flame became two, and the two became three, and the whole house was lit with large and small flames.

"What is this?" Zhuang Wanwan stared at the quivering flames and asked.

Although there are many flames, they cannot fully illuminate the scene in the house.The unlit areas are dark, as if something is hiding in them.Such dim lighting made Zhuang Wanwan, who was used to all kinds of modern bright artificial light sources, a little uncomfortable. She felt as if she was in the scene of a ghost movie.

The old lady sat down at the table in the house, and said slowly, "This is a candle. I'm afraid I'm the only one who has this entire empire."

"It's too dark, why not use a lamp?" Zhuang Wanwan asked, holding Olivia's arm tightly.

"The ancestors don't like lamps." The old woman motioned for the two to sit down too.

Olivia looked around. Although the illuminated area is not large, it can be clearly seen that there is no modern atmosphere here.The furniture is all wood, and there are paper books that look very old on the shelves.This room can't even be said to be retro, it should be said that it looks like an old house.

The old woman took out a wooden box covered with cloth from under the table, and took out a round ball from it.The ball was crystal clear without any impurities.

Zhuang Wanwan stared at the ball intently.This is the legendary crystal ball?Zhuang Wanwan thought of the legends she had read in those strange books.

Legend has it that some ancient humans could perform divination through crystal balls, and see the past, present and future from the crystal balls.

Zhuang Wanwan has always believed that this ancient divination technique is either a lie. If it really existed in history, it should have been lost long ago.Could it be that this old woman is the descendant of this kind of divination?

"What is it?" The old woman wiped the crystal ball with a cloth made of a strange material.

"Look for someone." Olivia hadn't read those weird legends, and she felt a little chills looking at the old woman's long nails.

After wiping, the old woman put her hand on the top of the crystal ball and rubbed it while muttering something.

Under the dim light, the originally transparent crystal ball slowly glowed white.

Zhuang Wanwan watched and held her breath.She has been staring at the crystal ball closely, but there is nothing else in the crystal ball except for the light.Before, Zhuang Wanwan thought that the picture they wanted would appear in the crystal ball, for example, they could capture the appearance of that person, or the place where that person was.However, she saw nothing.
