After a short meal, everyone exchanged greetings and the atmosphere became brighter again.
"Heath, you came just in time!"
Campbell stepped forward, grabbed Heath's arm and pulled him inside: "Come here and tell you the good news!"
Heath asked, "What?"
Arriving at the center of the big account, there was a long table with a letter on the table.
Campbell handed the letter to Heath.
Heath took the letter. The coat of arms on the seal was two crossed battle axes.
He asked doubtfully: "Battle ax emblem? Letters from all over the world?"
Battle Ax Coat of Arms, this is an earldom in Gray Woodland, and its lord, Earl Chris, is also one of the most powerful noble families in Gray Woodland.
Campbell said: "Open it and take a look."
Heath opened the letter and read it, and his eyes immediately lit up when he saw it.
This is a letter of persuasion, which means that Campbell can inherit the position of Duke as soon as possible, and the letter clearly states that the Quartet is ready to pay allegiance to the future Grand Duke of Gray Castle.
'No wonder this guy is so happy...'
This letter was sent in a public manner, which means that when the letter was initiated, Earl Chris also expressed his attitude to other nobles in Gray Woodland.
This move is of great significance!
The Sifang District has always maintained a neutral posture before and is one of the representative forces belonging to the neutral faction. If they can get their allegiance and endorsement, it will definitely be a major benefit to Campbell's political group. You must know that these princes have been fighting for so long.
This is the first time that a noble noble of this level has made a formal statement.
Campbell has recently won several major victories in a row, including White River Valley, High Plains, and River Land... He just defeated the fourth prince Matthew and won control of the Shepherd Plains. Now he has basically opened a gap with other princes.
If he can gain the allegiance from all over the world, then there will basically be no suspense about the ownership of the Lord of Gray Castle in this war.
Heath was also very happy: "Congratulations, Your Excellency, peace has taken another step forward."
"Lord of Graycastle!"
"Lord of Graycastle!"
Everyone shouted in unison.
Campbell was so happy that he forgot about himself: "Hahaha!"
After a pause, he patted Heath on the shoulder and said: "To be able to achieve this result, Heath, you have contributed most. Half of the land I captured is yours. The wealth, women, and land here are mine."
, and it’s yours too!”
There was silence in the big account.
"cough!"
A slight cough broke the silence. Baron Barrow stepped forward, pulled Campbell, and changed the subject: "Now is not the time to talk about these, lest the night becomes long, Baron Mundo should hurry back to Gray Castle to hold the inheritance ceremony.
"
Campbell nodded, and then issued a series of instructions, leaving some troops to clear out the remaining forces, regain the Shepherd Plains, etc., while the others followed him back to Gray Castle to hold the inheritance ceremony.
Before the meeting ended, Campbell, who was in high spirits, suddenly asked: "Heath, I heard that you wizards are all divination prophets who can tell the future by predicting the future. So, can you give me a divination to see if I can successfully inherit the title?"
Heath's eyes widened and he looked at him as if he had seen a ghost.
Campbell asked doubtfully: "No?"
Heath said: "That's not the case... I just think... it's a coincidence..."
If Campbell had made such a request a few months or even a few days ago, Heath might not have had any good ideas, but now he really has something in this area...
Just a few days ago, he just completed the condensation of the eighth rune of will. The name of this rune is [Analytical Construction]. As the name suggests, it can analyze and construct things. It has many functions, and the most common one is that it can
Make witchcraft tools and magic props.
After the fire in the learning tower last time, he asked the Glory of the Sea of Trees for some books on fate, curses, etc. to study. This time, after the eighth rune was condensed, he made some divination and fortune-telling gadgets.
'This guy is really good at pinching, right?'
Remembering that the last time he performed the Eagle Eye Technique was like this, Heath couldn't help but look weird for a moment.
Campbell was stunned: "What a coincidence?"
Heath shook his head: "Nothing."
After a pause, he continued: "If you want to do divination, it's not impossible, but I don't have much knowledge in this area. I can't guarantee the accuracy of the divination results."
In the field of magic, fate is one of the most mysterious knowledge.
Campbell laughed: “I’m interested in that!”
So... do the math?
Heath nodded: "Okay."
Immediately, he ordered someone to bring a low table, and went to the tent to get the utensils and books he would use. Then he took out the magic stone and drew a magic circle on the low table, and finally covered it with magic stones.
I got a piece of black cloth.
Heath sat down cross-legged in front of the low table, and then invited Campbell to sit across from him.
Then, he took out a deck of cards.
"Tarot cards?"
"Wizards also use this?"
Someone recognized the identity of the cards in Heath's hand. They were Tarot cards that were widely circulated around the world. In busy markets, you would often see some women wearing veils using this method to tell people's fortunes. They would never do it even once.
A few copper plates.
Campbell quipped: "I thought only those swaggering Pseleith women would make a living in this pretentious way."
Heath shrugged: "In fact, Tarot divination was passed on to them from wizards. However, ordinary people do not have magic power. Using Tarot divination no matter how sophisticated the performance is is just deception. Don't believe it."
After a pause, he got to the point and said: "Then let's get started, concentrate on asking your questions."
Campbell said: "Luck!"
Heath placed the card in the center, then raised the five fingers of his right hand and bent them into claws and placed them on the card. At the same time, he slowly recited a spell: "The light trails of the intersecting stars, please guide the direction of fate, so that
Being able to see the road ahead clearly on a dark road..."
Accompanied by the chanting of spells, the magic array under the black cloth suddenly began to shine brightly, and the light and shadow reflected through the black cloth on the cards reflected a large six-pointed star magic array.
"Crash!"
The cards seemed to be automatically spread out in an umbrella shape under the pull of some invisible force, and began to automatically rotate in a clockwise direction.
Soon, the shuffling was over, and dozens of cards were scattered and covered with black cloth.
The sound of the curse also stopped.
Heath made a gesture of invitation to Campbell on the opposite side: "Draw three cards."
Campbell randomly drew three cards and handed them to Heath, who then emptied the black cloth, leaving only these three cards, and arranged them on the black cloth in order.
He continued: "Let's open the cards, turn them left and right."
Campbell then opened the first card in order, which was a knight riding on a white horse with a sword held high.
Heath took out the divination book and opened it and quickly found the answer: "This is the Knight of Swords, which means moving vigorously and resolutely. Do whatever you think of quickly, and move and think as fast as possible, so that good luck will accompany you.
Helping you achieve success.”
Everyone was overjoyed!
"Haha, it's true!"
"God is hinting!"
Campbell cracked his lips and turned over the second card. There was still a knight on a horse on the card. The difference was that the knight was not holding a sword but a shining golden sword.
cup.
Heath flipped through the book and continued to answer: "This is the Knight of the Holy Grail, which means the help of noble people. It means that you will get the support of important people when you do what you want to do."
People cheered again:
"Count Chris!"
"The land in all directions is ours!"
Campbell looked calm and continued to turn over the third card. This was a free and easy man standing on the edge of the cliff with the sun behind him, a bag of luggage on his shoulders, and a dog at his feet.
Heath was startled: The Fool's Card.
Seemingly noticing the change in his expression, Baron Barrow next to him asked: "What does this card mean? Your Majesty the Wizard?"
Heath explained: "The Fool card has a different meaning. It means that you have a free and unrestrained attitude in your career, which makes you not care about any negative emotions and can always maintain a relaxed and natural attitude.
Meet any challenge."
Campbell laughed loudly: "Hahaha, Heath, I think this one of your divination techniques is the most accurate. As for the others? Are you sure these things of yours will work? I really can't see how it works with the Psellis woman.
What is the difference between deception and abduction?"
All the nobles also laughed in agreement. Indeed, after reading this passage, Heath felt that he said everything, but at the same time, he felt that he said nothing.
Heath shrugged: "I have said before that the accuracy of divination spells is unpredictable. After all..."
"Destiny is unpredictable, isn't it?"
His eyes fell on the Fool card on the table. The meanings of the cards he told Campbell before were all explained according to the book, and there was absolutely no lie at all.
