A corner of the multiverse
Thunder Hill/βG75-...siw Thunder Tavern and Pan-Kendalvela Continent Multi-Civilization Exchange Center
The legendary card master, Cameron, sat in his own seat with a hint of sadness.
There was roaring thunder outside, as if an animated snake was snaking across the earth.
The many arrangements outside the tavern turned the anger from the sky into spherical light bodies coiling around the outside of the tavern.
When he first arrived at this tavern, Cameron would spend a lot of time admiring this wonderful picture outlined by thunder.
As for now?
Cameron frowned and looked at the scroll in the void in front of him.
This tavern was originally just a place for travelers from other civilizations to rest and trade in this world.
Its construction intention and original intention are quite idealistic and romantic.
The subsequent development is generally in line with the construction intention of the tavern.
However, recently, the area where the tavern is built has experienced a change:
A powerful god who chose his own destiny threw his staff into the void.
And perhaps, as fate reveals, it is impermanent:
The long staff did not fall into the chaotic deep sea of the void, but fell directly into this world...
This is truly a disaster.
Although there are many legends about ancient artifacts in this continent.
After all, a long time ago, this place was also part of an extremely powerful extraordinary civilization.
Until, like many civilizations, they encountered huge material upheavals.
But the world that was too huge was shattered in the thunder.
This world has also gained independence as a result.
It is precisely because of those ancient rumors that have not disappeared that have attracted generations of adventurers to search.
During this process, many people did discover some powerful ancient treasures.
But with the passage of time, until the past thirty years, as a native legendary professional here, Cameron has rarely heard such rumors.
But now, these ancient anecdotes no longer need to be traced back.
Because, the long staff that broke away was witnessed by countless people falling into this world...
At that time, Cameron had just had a drink and fell asleep after winning a passionate game.
It wasn't until the early morning of the next day that Cameron heard the news from the Roaring King...
His eldest brother, who has no blood connection, is now the king of the only ruling body in the world.
Cameron plays a role similar to that of a national advisor.
Of course, it is difficult to imagine how obsessed a poker player who has become a legend by playing cards can be with government affairs.
So Cameron, who was still looking tired under the influence of the hangover from the legendary liquor, naturally triggered another round of cordial greetings from the king.
Maybe it was just like what the guy said, if I had been awake that night and just picked up the long stick in my hand, there wouldn't have been so much trouble...
Even now, Cameron can't help but feel a fleeting feeling of regret.
But in the next moment, this trace of regret disappeared in the memory of that day.
That's a bloody counterattack comparable to a mortal combat game!
Such a wonderful match is enough to give everything for it...
I guess so?
Cameron looked at the message in front of him.
A true artifact is, of course, difficult to trace when it enters the ownerless stage.
Whether it will choose a new successor depends entirely on its own nature and the will of the original creator and holder of the artifact.
But no matter what, now this is a truly unowned artifact.
Its former holder has entered the end of his life as a god.
Compared with those artifacts that often involve a lot of trouble and involvement, the value of such artifacts can be said to be unquestionable.
To be honest, Cameron didn't actually expect to obtain this artifact.
Although his brother, the king, was quite critical of this.
But in fact, both of them knew that with Cameron's personality, it would be extremely difficult for him to be chosen by that artifact.
Because it is said that the original owner of that artifact was a fearless and meticulous judge of justice.
During the long years of exercising his adjudicatory authority, He was known to the world for his absolute fairness and due diligence.
The nature of the artifact cannot be said to completely replicate the characteristics of its creator.
But there is a huge difference between the two, which is also an extremely rare situation in the multiverse.
Now, because of the fall of this artifact.
This civilization, which was originally peaceful in one place, began to fall into some kind of turbulent situation.
This tavern, which originally had only a few civilizations around it, where people often came to trade and patronize, began to become very lively.
Fortunately, based on the nature of this artifact, the beings who can rush forward are often kind and lawful.
Occasionally there are some evil characters who try to take the wrong path.
But it is obvious that no one can benefit from the hordes of legendary or chosen characters related to the ruling...
Cameron actually doesn't like dealing with these guys.
Because of the arrival of these guys, although the tavern has become safer to a certain extent.
But its atmosphere has inevitably undergone some changes:
Most people were in groups of twos and threes. Although the tavern was crowded, it was in a relatively quiet environment.
Before this, this was not the case here:
The different creatures that come and go communicate happily and easily here with their own civilized language and etiquette.
Even if everyone has different forms, and it is difficult to communicate effectively even under the influence of relevant rules, the transmission of goodwill does not require complicated operations.
A glass of clear wine or pure engine oil, or viscous source material, or even sparkling data...
Cameron likes this harmonious and idealized atmosphere.
He is tired of conflicts and disagreements over interests.
But now, he must stand up.
Even from the face of it, this is a bad card that couldn't be worse.
But as all poker players on the road to greatness will probably understand, this is:
The theft of destiny and the selfish use of skills are ultimately just temporary dazzling.
Only facing the dangerous situation head-on and counterattacking with perhaps stubborn but perseverance is the more eternal truth between chess and cards.
For a true poker player, miracles are never about luck or luck...
"Pap..."
The ball lightning outside struck the bell above the tavern, making a perhaps not so subtle sound.
Cameron couldn't help but raise his head.
He knew that a new guest had arrived.
I just don’t know which noble Holy See this person comes from, or whether he is a powerful divine system.
Then, the door of the tavern was gently pushed open.
An ordinary young man walked in.
Or - he walked into the tavern...
Looking at the other party's fiery eyes that were like stars, Cameron's pupils shrank slightly.
The face of the great man is revealed, and it is the backside of the king...
