Chapter 424: Astrology, "The Imperial Book of Scriptures", Destiny
After killing the wizard, Mo Cheng took Theresa away from the gathering area.
It's not that he didn't have the idea of rescuing other dragonborn to improve his prestige and favor, but he rationally suppressed his thoughts.
Because Erica was present at the scene, although Mo Cheng didn't know how Erica had raised her strength to the seventh level [Hero], he was very clear that with Erica's current strength, plus her spatial ability, she had enough spare energy to block the strong men from Rothal City while transferring other dragonborn away.
The abilities of the space series are extremely powerful in terms of practicality and versatility. Even Mo Cheng is wondering which dragon inherited that level of space power from.
With Erica's presence, the Dragonborn will basically not be in any danger, unless an eighth-level [Legendary] level mage suddenly appears in the city of Rothal, and he is a great mage who studies space.
Only in this way can it be possible to interfere with Erica's spatial operation . Otherwise, even if it is a legendary warrior of the eighth level, as long as Erica is not completely pulled into his own domain, the opponent will be able to transfer by relying on spatial ability.
The current situation does not require her to take action. Even if she really saves some dragonborn, under the premise that Erica also takes action, the dragonborn will only be more grateful to Erica and think that it was Erica who saved them.
Not only would his efforts be thankless, but at least 80% of the gratitude would have to go to Erica, and he would also be in danger of being exposed.
The loss outweighs the gain.
After the space blockade was lifted, Mo Cheng took Theresa away very decisively, carefully walked around the city a few times, and then left the city, changing his form and secretly returning.
The idea of relying on the power of the Dragon Cult can only be put on hold for the time being. It is unknown whether Erica can conceal the existence of the Dragon Cult. Although according to Mo Cheng's understanding, the top leaders of the Dragon Cult have reached some kind of cooperation with the Kingdom of Bezeko, this cooperation is obviously carried out in secret and cannot be seen in public.
Will the exposure of the gathering place of the Dragon Worship Cult this time cause the Kingdom of Bezeko to react and thus affect the cooperation between the two parties? It is even unknown whether the Dragon Worship Cult has contacted the Kingdom of Bezeko during this time.
Mo Cheng planned to wait and see for a few days before seeking help from the Dragon Worshiping Cult. Before that, he would have to conduct the investigation of the instruments on his own.
Well, searching for a batch of hidden instruments in a city is not that difficult.
It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Theresa, you should follow Isabella in the next few days. Don't worry about the disciplinary group. After discovering the presence of the Dragonborn, Rothal City may conduct a large-scale search ."
Theresa nodded. "No problem, Captain. When we joined the cult, we also received corresponding training. Once the gathering place is discovered, we will go silent until someone summons us again."
Since the situation of dragonborn on the continent of Khorvaire is generally not very good, it is understandable that the Dragon Cult came up with such training.
However, thinking of the Dragonborn's skillful and regular escape from the gathering point before, Mo Cheng couldn't help but wonder how much patience and cost the Dragon Cult had spent in teaching this group of emotionally excited and easily impulsive Dragonborn to know when to run away?
When Mo Cheng and Theresa returned to where they lived, the moon had risen quietly. The stars were particularly bright tonight. It had been a long time since we had seen the sight of the Milky Way hanging in the night sky on Earth.
The two returned to where they lived, only to see Lilia and Taisai standing outside the door. Lilia was pacing back and forth anxiously.
"What are you doing here?"
Seeing Mo Cheng coming back, Lilia hurried over and pointed to the closed room, "Teacher Dorothy seemed to have discovered something when observing the stars just now. Let's leave the room first and let her interpret it quietly."
Interpreting the stars?
Mo Cheng was a little surprised to hear this, and then he realized that although Dorothy's combat ability was average, the Star Mage itself was not a profession that specialized in combat, and [Interpreting the Astrology] was considered a high-level skill of the Star Mage.
As for the effect of [Interpreting the Astrology]...
Look at the person.
Some people can predict historical trends and important events as accurately as using the Tui Bei Tu by interpreting the astrology.
For some people, the biggest purpose of [interpreting the astrology] is to see whether it will rain tomorrow and whether they need to bring an umbrella.
"So, has she finished interpreting it?"
"I don't know." Lilia spread her hands and said helplessly, "I just heard no movement in the room, so I knocked on the door to ask Teacher Dorothy if she needed help, and the answer I got was not to disturb her."
It can be seen that Lilia was obviously worried that something had happened to Dorothy. At the same time, because Dorothy asked people not to disturb her, the girl did not dare to really go in and disturb her.
She was waiting at the door, waiting for someone who could make a decision to come back.
"Well, I'll go see what Dorothy found."
When I pushed open the door and walked in, the first thing I saw was a pile of manuscript paper covered with densely written words.
Not only are there common characters, but there are also Elvish, Dwarven, Halfling characters, and even more strange things that look like pictures.
Dorothy sat on the ground without caring about her image at all. She picked up the manuscript on the ground, looked at it, and threw it away.
At the same time, some of the things recorded on the manuscript paper made her discoveries, which Dorothy put aside and folded up.
"Ahem, do you need any help?"
After coughing twice, Mo Cheng's question disturbed Dorothy's thoughts. The Starry Sky Mage looked at him with a frown.
"I didn't say don't bother me...it's you."
When she saw clearly that it was Mo Cheng, Dorothy changed the subject immediately, "How is the matter going?"
"Because some emergencies were handled poorly, it will probably take some time to complete."
"You also encountered unexpected troubles?" Dorothy didn't seem surprised that Mo Cheng's things were not going well. "It seems that there is nothing wrong with the astrology this time, but this kind of astrology is worse than nothing."
It seemed that the interpretation of the stars was not a good one. Mo Cheng sat down next to Dorothy, picked up the manuscript paper and started reading it. He asked, "So, what did your [Amazing Wisdom] see from the stars? Do you need me to lend you a copy of the [Imperial Book of Scripture]?"
Mo Cheng's suitcase was filled with COSPLAY props for his friend, and there happened to be a copy of "Huangji Jingshi Shu". That was the prop his friend used to COS a certain white-haired, one-armed guy's second uncle.
Of course, that book is just a book about Yi principles and Yi numbers.
"What are you talking about?"
"I want to ask you something." Dorothy looked into Mo Cheng's eyes and asked, "Do you believe in fate?"
