As soon as he finished speaking, Iveliya rushed to his side like a gust of wind, and hugged Lucius's other arm, imitating Sanita's posture.
Although her barren chest could not give Lucius the same soft and warm feeling as Sanita's, this did not affect her confidence at all. She raised one of her long eyebrows and gave Sanita a provocative look, as if declaring her territory.
Sanita: ...
Sanita couldn't help but find it a little funny when she saw this scene. She sighed softly, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and said softly:
“Only you can bring me a sense of security, so please allow me to stay by your side.”
His tone was gentle yet firm, his eyes gleaming with unshakable determination.
"Hahaha, Aetherion is the territory of the Bourne family. How can a lord just stand by and watch? Lucius, I'll go with you."
Ferdinand also expressed his attitude with a hearty laugh.
"Tomorrow I will lead others to conduct simultaneous investigations in the city to ensure that nothing goes wrong in the rear."
Reinhardt did not choose to go with him, but instead prepared to stay behind for Lucius.
Tight, rational, and loyal, this is exactly why Lucius is willing to put his back on Reinhardt.
"I'll stay in the city too. The Gordon family has many businesses here. If needed, we can deploy supplies in a timely manner."
Victoria also chose to stay behind.
"very good."
Lucius's eyes were full of approval. "Then everyone should get some rest early. We will set off early tomorrow morning."
In the end, only Lucius, Iveliya and Sanita were left in the room.
"Brother Lu, where do you plan to start your investigation tomorrow?"
As soon as she sat down, Iveliya couldn't wait to ask.
"Hehe~"
Lucius smiled triumphantly and reached into his pocket mysteriously:
"This time, I intend to use some extraordinary means."
He opened his palm, and lying quietly in his palm was the fragment of "Echo of Fate" obtained from Sanita.
"It seems that the young lord has already mastered its use?"
Sanita raised her eyebrows, her eyes filled with surprise.
"of course."
Lucius whistled and began to activate the artifact fragment:
"[Fateful Echo], activate!"
"[Destiny], get up and answer Brother Lu's question!"
——As the words fell, the pink pupils in the bead suddenly opened.

60-Direct Dialogue with Destiny (4K)
"[Fateful Echo], activate!"
"[Destiny], get up and answer Brother Lu's question!"
The pink pupils suddenly opened, and the light emitted illuminated the entire room as if it were in a galaxy. Billions of stars rushed in the pupils, and countless tiny and ancient whispers poured into Lucius's mind like a tide. Those voices were both distant and close, both strange and familiar, as if they came from the other side of time.
Iveliya squinted her eyes due to the sudden brightness, while Sanita looked at the scene thoughtfully with a mysterious smile on her lips.

Lucius: Buhao!
When Lu Ge played the complete version of Fateful Echoes, he didn't make such a big fuss. How could a mere fragment produce such an exaggerated and colorful effect?
There won't be any problem, right?
A sense of uneasiness rose in Lucius' heart.
[Huh? I've already dismantled that thing, so how can someone still use it to contact me from the Prime Material Plane?]
A clear and tender loli voice sounded in Lucius' ears, mixed with a bit of sleepiness, as if he had just been pulled back to reality from a long dream.
Lucius:? ? ?
Damn, little female ghost!
Lucius was stunned, staring at the ball in his palm in disbelief, his brows furrowed, his lips slightly parted, his face full of disbelief.
At this moment, he would rather believe that he had dialed the wrong number.
The great weaver of destiny, the lord of all changes, the supreme ruler of heaven [Destiny] is a loli?
This is so far from the image he had constructed in his mind. How could Brother Lu have such a dream?
At this moment, the pink eyes in the bead moved slightly, met Lucius's gaze, and blinked, as if confirming something -
【Oh, so it's "Quan Yi"? That's all right then.】
【Ahem! 】
The voice cleared its throat, and the brief pause was filled with dramatic changes.
Just as Lucius was puzzled, the other party spoke again:
Welcome, my friend, what do you want to know? And what price are you willing to pay for it?
The voice suddenly changed drastically, becoming deep and mysterious, full of unquestionable majesty and subtle teasing, resonating directly in Lucius' mind.
The voice was as if millions of people were whispering in his ears at the same time, yet it was strangely clear and distinct, and every syllable was imbued with irresistible power and transcendent divinity.
In short, use a reverb voice changer.
"..."
Lucius was silent for a moment, then he asked tentatively:
"【destiny】?"
【Guaranteed authenticity.】
The answer is short and affirmative.
"Who was that loli voice just now?"
[…It’s Amatras, you’ve seen him before. (Huh?)]
Lucius didn't know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to hear a puzzled crow's cry, and there was a strange awkwardness in the air.
[You don't have much time, my friend. If you have any questions, please ask them now.]
[Well, let me see, the fragment in your hand can probably hold out for another minute.]
I'm interested, we have to hurry up.
Lucius took a look at the bead and found that it was just as Fate had said. The cracks on the already broken bead were becoming more and more obvious, and tiny lines were spreading at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a spider web that was breaking apart.
"Tell me, what is this turmoil in Ethelion? How can it be resolved?"
The current situation is a little urgent. If it is not resolved quickly, there will probably be a big mess.
Therefore, Lucius was not going to play the detective game with the Chaos Cult in a conventional way. Since it was the Chaos Cult that was causing the trouble, why not go directly to the Chaos God to solve it?
This is called fighting poison with poison.
[These are two questions. I can tell you the answers, but what are you going to give me in exchange?]
"Speak now, Egypt! If you want to speak, speak now. If you don't want to speak, get lost. It's like Brother Lu can't settle the matter without your help."
"It's because of you that those insects came to provoke me. Shouldn't you be held responsible for this?"
"Tell me the answer. You are atoning for your sins to me, understand?"
bargain?
No, Brother Lu wants to get it for free!
Anyway, after hearing the loli voice of [Destiny], Lucius had already assumed that the other party was a soft persimmon.
To deal with a weakling, one must naturally display the spirit of a bully. If not now, when?
【? ? ? 】
"Why are you yelling so loudly? Aren't you asking me to do something for you?"
[If you want to ask for help, then treat it like one, you bastard!]
Like a thunderclap, Lucius felt a sharp pain in his eardrums, and the ball in his palm began to flash with an unstable light. The cracks seemed to spread faster because of the wrath of fate.
"Okay, okay, please, great supreme [Destiny], help me~"
"Is it ok? Hurry up and tell me! The Fateful Echo is about to break!"
Seeing the crack getting bigger and bigger, Lucius became anxious.
【whispering sound.】
[No reward, no answer]
[But just consider it a gift for meeting you. I can tell you three clues.]
The Heretic God's voice suddenly became solemn and mysterious, as if he had plucked a few key threads directly from the tapestry of time. Each syllable carried unimaginable weight.
[Prosperity, Water, Pure Fire]
As soon as the last word fell, the bead completely broke into two parts, and the divine light dissipated. Now it was not even as beautiful as a beautiful stone that can be seen everywhere on the roadside. It just lay quietly in Lucius's palm, lifeless.
"Ouch, the echo of my fate."
Lucius put away the fragments with a distressed look on his face. It was all Fate's fault. If it hadn't been so fussy, the Fateful Echo could have been used at least once more.
Damn evil god, he really has control over you.
Exhaling, Lucius began to think about the three clues given by [Destiny]. It was like a carefully designed puzzle, and also like a key to the truth.
"Brother Lu, are you done?"
Iveliya came closer curiously, and a strand of soft hair swayed gently beside her cheek as she moved.
She tilted her head, her emerald green eyes like gemstones sparkling with curiosity. She blinked and met Lucius's gaze, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, with a hint of girlish playfulness:
"Was it really the Fate of the Groove that you just spoke to?"
The evil god's reply can only be heard by the holder of the Fate Echo, so from the perspective of Iveliya and Sanita, what they saw was Lucius madly attacking the ball in his palm with a domineering and powerful attitude.
"It must be Him."
Lucius nodded, and then, as if he had thought of something, he looked at Iveliya with an apologetic look in his eyes:
"Sorry, Xiao Ai, time was tight this time, so I didn't ask that guy about you."
"But Splenda must have other fragments. Wait for me next time..."
Before Lucius could finish his words, Iveliya gently pressed her warm, slender white fingers against his lips.
Her fingertips carried a faint fragrance, and her movements were gentle but firm.
The girl's eyebrows are curved, and her smile is brighter than the spring sunshine:
"It's okay, Brother Lu. There's no need to worry about these little things."
"Seeing you scold Him so bluntly, I feel so relieved. Brother Lu, you've already been my hero~"
The girl's attitude towards "Fate" had long since changed from hatred at the beginning to a slight gratitude. If it weren't for it, she probably wouldn't have met Lucius.
If she had not given herself the identity of a saint, she would have had complete respect for fate.
To be honest, this evil god has bad intentions but ends up doing good things. Sister Ai has always been magnanimous. When Sister Ai achieves complete victory, I will open a separate table for you, and no one else is allowed to pick up their chopsticks unless you come!
"In the entire Prime Material Plane, I'm afraid that only the young lord can face the Supreme Lord of the High Heavens so powerfully?"
