Chapter 542 God of Prescience
Lin Yu frowned and continued to ask, "So...as guardians, do you all know each other?"
Aglaya paced lightly, as if organizing his thoughts. After a moment, he slowly said, "We know each other. After all, we belong to the same system and shoulder the same mission. There is an invisible connection between us. This connection is like a big net hidden behind the world, which tightly interweaves us together."
She raised her head slightly and looked into the distance, as if lost in memories. "However, the actual situation is much more complicated than this. In order to avoid being caught by those forces who secretly covet the power of the gods, most guardians choose to hide their whereabouts. Moreover, each guardian has his own protection area and responsibilities, and they rarely interact with each other on weekdays."
Ji Zi nodded slightly to show her understanding. "This is also to better protect the seal and prevent it from being broken by the enemy's concentrated forces. It's like fortresses scattered in various places, defending themselves independently but also responding to each other."
"Yes, but in certain special circumstances, we will still have special induction, such as when the seal experiences drastic fluctuations, or when a powerful external force threatens the balance of the world, this connection will be activated."
"Then if the other person hides his or her appearance, or changes the way you perceive his or her appearance, can you still recognize each other?"
Aglaya smiled slightly and raised her wrist, only to see a faint star-shaped mark on her wrist.
"This is the Guardian's mark. Every Guardian has one. When we meet, the mark will glow faintly. This is a way to confirm our identities. However, this mark can be easily hidden, so we cannot rely on it completely."
Sanyueqi's eyes lit up, "Wow, what a cool mark! Do Tibao and the others have one too?"
Aglaya nodded. "Of course they have them too, but their marks are in a special location, on the back of their necks. And because the three of them are derived from one body, their marks have a special resonance effect. When the mark of one of them is activated, the other two will also feel it."
"And I have an ability that allows me to see the trajectory of fate. No matter if I have seen them on books or murals, as long as they are still alive, I can use this ability."
"Just like this." Aglaya said, and the golden thread that she used when she was looking for Tibao appeared again.
Those silk threads were like golden rivers, flowing slowly in the air, flashing strange light.
They poured out from in front of Aglaya, no longer from her fingers, and gradually spread on the ground. Wherever they went, it seemed to light up a mysterious area. The golden threads meandered forward, bypassing the stone pillars, passing through the corridors, and finally stopped at the feet of Lin Yu and the others.
Everyone looked down at the golden thread gleaming at their feet, their hearts filled with amazement and curiosity about Aglaia's magical ability.
Generally speaking, they cannot see this thread, but Aglaya used some tricks to let everyone see this golden thread.
However, at this moment, another golden thread suddenly appeared and spread outside the church.
"What...is going on?" San Yue Qi asked in shock.
"It seems that a guest has arrived." Aglaya narrowed her eyes slightly, waved her hands lightly, and took back the ability that allowed everyone to see the golden thread.
A moment later, a figure slowly appeared in everyone's sight.
He was a white-haired man, his white hair fluttering gently in the breeze.
His left eye was covered by a unique black eye patch. The eye patch was not made of ordinary cloth, but seemed to be made of some special fabric material.
An exquisite chain was connected to the bottom and back of the blindfold. The chain was engraved with runes. As the man walked, the chain swayed slightly, making a crisp and ethereal sound.
In the middle of the chain, a bright red crystal was embedded in it like a burning heart. It emitted a fiery and deep light, as if it contained endless energy.
There is a striking red mark on the man's hand. The shape of the mark is like a rune, complex and exquisite. In the center of the mark, there is also a red crystal similar to the one on the chain. The two crystals echo each other, as if constructing some special energy cycle.
On the chest of his clothes, there was a striking octagonal star-shaped gap. That gap was not an ordinary hole, but seemed like an entrance to another mysterious space.
There is no flesh in it, it is like the deep cosmic void, blue-green starlight is like stars, flickering and moving in it, as if it is a miniature cosmic galaxy slowly rotating.
If you look carefully from the front, you will find an ancient book floating quietly in the octagonal star.
"Nakexia, nice to meet you again, although I just asked you for help not long ago to inquire about the origins of these people." Aglaya said to him.
At that moment, Xia raised his head slightly, and his eyes swept over everyone one by one, finally landing on Aglaiya, "Aglaiya, you seem to be in some trouble."
Aglaya frowned slightly and responded calmly, "It's just a small situation. I can handle it myself. You came here suddenly, not just to say this, right?"
"Of course not. I sensed an unusual power fluctuation that is related to the gods. You and I both know that this is no small matter."
"I came here to see if this power fluctuation will attract those gods. If so, then the action plan will change."
Aglaya said seriously, "Nakexia, don't talk nonsense. We must find a way to stabilize the seal instead of expecting any turmoil. If you are willing to help, then stay. If you just come to cause trouble, please leave."
"Aglaia, I can't wait any longer. I only have seven days left. If I can't kill Him within these seven days, then who will deal with the God who can predict the future?" Na Kexia's expression instantly became distorted and hideous. He clenched his fists, and the red marks on his hands jumped like burning flames. The book in the empty space of the octagonal star on his chest also trembled slightly, as if responding to his inner frenzy and anxiety.
The atmosphere around them instantly dropped to freezing point. Everyone was shocked by his sudden crazy words and didn't know what to do. Aglaya frowned even more. She knew very well that once Na Kexia fell into this crazy obsession, it would bring unimaginable changes and dangers.
Lin Yu flashed a trace of surprise, "A god who can predict the future? What are you talking about? What is going on?"
Aglaya said quickly, "Lin Yu, this is Na Kexia. Although his style of doing things is a bit unpredictable, he does have unique insights and abilities in some aspects."
Xia took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement. "The target I am tracking is a god who has the power to predict the future, and I am the successor of this god's descendants. However, I do not have the so-called foresight, but prophecy. I can only see the ending of a concept."
"When I learned that I only had seven days left to live, I also saw the end of the God of Prescience, which was death! And I could also break the 'short-lived curse' that has been passed down through the ages to gain this predictive ability. Although I am not afraid of death, I don't want to die like this. At least I have to do something."
"But now, it is hiding behind thick fog, manipulating the development of many unknown events. I have been making plans in secret, trying to find its weakness and break it in one fell swoop, but time is running out and the fluctuations of the seal make everything more complicated and unpredictable."
"Then why are you so sure that this power fluctuation is related to the god you are looking for? Maybe it's just some other factor that caused the seal to become unstable."
At that moment, Xia glanced at Ji Zi coldly, "What do you outsiders know? I am very familiar with the aura of this power. It bears the unique mark of that guy. If it really regains its power with the help of the seal fluctuations, the consequences will be disastrous. He can foresee various possibilities in the future, so he can cleverly avoid all dangers and guide the world towards the path he expects."
Lin Yu frowned and said, "Even so, you can't act blindly. If the seal is broken, wouldn't it be right in its hands?"
"Of course I know my limits. I don't want to destroy the seal, but I want to use this last chance to trap him before he completely gains power. But I need help, Aglaya. If you and these people cooperate with me, the chances of success will be greatly increased."
Aglaya pondered for a moment and said, "I can't decide to cooperate with you based on your one-sided statement. You must tell us everything you know about this god, including its weaknesses, hiding places, and your detailed plans. Otherwise, I can't trust you."
Na Ke Xia hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke slowly, "His name is Sonas, he often hides in the cracks of time, and only appears briefly at specific times."
"His weakness is... every time he uses his precognitive ability, there will be a split second of energy fluctuations going back. If you can launch an attack at this time, you may be able to hurt him."
"My plan is to set up a special confinement array around the seal. Once he appears, we will trap him inside, and then we will work together to launch a fatal attack."
Walter analyzed, "This plan sounds feasible, but there are too many variables. First, how can we be sure that he will show up near the seal? Second, can this imprisonment array really trap a god? And, can our attack cause substantial damage to him?"
"I have considered all these issues. The fluctuation of the seal is the most likely cause of his appearance. As for the magic circle, I am fully confident. This is what I have learned from years of research, combined with the power of the ancients. As for our attack, as long as we grasp the right timing and everyone's strength is gathered, we will definitely have a chance to inflict heavy damage on him."
San Yue Qi muttered quietly, "I always feel that this person is a little unreliable, but it seems that there is no other way. After all, we can't always analyze this and that here, right?"
Lin Yu patted her shoulder and said, "Don't jump to conclusions yet. Let's see what Aglaya decides."
Aglaya looked at Nakesha with a scrutinizing look in her eyes. "I need some time to think about it. During this period, Nakesha, you must not act on your own, otherwise I will regard you as an enemy."
"Okay, I'll give you an hour."
