Chapter 961 Twenty-eight. Divination Shadows
The warm and bright morning sun shone into the auditorium, and tiny floating dust drifted away.
The students were amazed to find that although the New Year's arrangement was cleared in the middle of the night, the old professor's sunshine creativity was preserved.
Fodot hurriedly rushed into the auditorium, regaining her grace and pride, raised her chin, stared at the dark-haired figure bathing in the sun from the corner of her eye, and sat down as usual.
"That's just my cousin."
"what."
Lu Li, who was eating quietly, moved his black eyes slightly.
"The one who danced with me..." Fordot tried her best to maintain her pride.
Lu Li's black eyes fell silent again, chewing the food silently.
Fodor asked Xiang Xiang, the first dog who arrived, "What happened to Lu Li?"
"It seems that I haven't woken up yet." The dog meat is in good condition. The food at the New Year's dinner was impeccable in texture and taste: "It's the same when I'm too sleepy."
"Lu Li is not you." Fudot couldn't hide his disgust for dog meat.
She didn't know that the dog meat was right.
Lu Li was still immersed in the effects of the Sweet Dream Potion, or the side effects.
After waking up, everything that happened in his body gave Lu Li an unreal sense of illusoryness. It was as if he was still sleeping in a dream and had not woken up yet.
Maybe it was a side effect of the Sweet Dream Potion, or maybe it was Lu Li's awakening that the effect of the medicine had not yet passed.
Until the end of the first mystery class, Lu Li regained his weak thoughts amid Professor Hagrid's worries.
The first-level trial in the real world that was going on today was temporarily put on hold. Except for the necessary courses, Lu Li spent most of his time reading in his bedroom.
A day of confusion passed, and Lu Li, who fell asleep that night, fell into a chaotic dream of sinking.
When a new day came, Lu Li regained his sanity, no longer in a daze, and had never been so awake.
And the knowledge learned yesterday is completely engraved in my mind.
So for the next two days, Lu Li passed the Level 1 trials of Strange Knowledge and Botany one after another.
Now, the last 2 credits before the promotion to the middle grades are only the first-level trial of fortune-telling, and the fortune-telling is still a little warm.
"Meditate...perceive...the answer comes to mind..."
In the darkness and nothingness, the haunting whispers of the unnamed lady rang in my ears.
"Your will travels through nothingness... Your eyes see the truth behind the card... Your ear whispers the answer... Your hand writes the truth..."
When the blue candles dim, the light of the oil lamp gradually lights up, making the divination classroom brighter again.
"Let me see...Mondo...Raphael...oh, there are seven little guys who didn't write anything." The Unnamed Lady turned to the other students. "Larue...correct; Vasili...well...surely correct; Mendy? Your handwriting is getting worse...let your hands practice how to write...Fodort...you're talented aren't you? ……"
"And then our Mr. Lu Li... I'm sorry, you're wrong again."
Divination, which obviously requires perceptual thinking and inspirational talents, did not spread the wings of blessing to Lu Li.
Lu Li couldn't waste too much time on divination that only required level 1.
He needs a special way.
On the second day of the divination class, Lu Li sat in the amphitheater, which seemed to be the same as usual, except for a book-shaped chess piece placed on the table.
Today's divination class is still guessing tarot cards. In the dim blue candlelight, the nameless lady with a pale face like a ghost flipped out the tarot cards and guided the students into a state of meditation.
"An answer emerges in your mind... Your will travels through nothingness... Your eyes see the truth behind the card... The answer whispers in your ear..."
In the gap between the unnamed lady's guiding words, a voice pierced through the misty nothingness and murmured in Lu Li's ears.
"The Hanged Man..."
"...your handwriting the truth..."
Bright light replaced the darkness, Lu Li wrote the answer "The Hanged Man" on the parchment and put down his quill.
He looked around, but couldn't find the outline he was thinking about day and night, and silently picked up the Doomsday Apocalypse.
The unnamed lady continued to comment, and it was Lu Li's turn: "...Mr. Lu Li...you succeeded...by chance or necessity, the answer will be revealed tomorrow..."
At lunchtime, Lu Li appeared in the auditorium with a stack of tarot cards.
Lu Li needs dog meat to help him practice divination.
"He just wants to eat, so I'll help you." Fudot stared at the dog meat he wanted to say, and pulled out a tarot card and buckled it.
Lu Li put down the doomsday apocalypse in the curious eyes around him, closed his eyes and immersed himself in inspiration.
The noise faded away, and nothingness enveloped the world.
"tower……"
murmured through the fog, and sounded in the distance.
"Tower." Lu Li calmly narrated.
"Right, then the next one."
The flop and the noise faded away again, Lu Li listened quietly... He heard a lost whisper: "The Wheel of Fortune... Where are you?"
"The wheel of fate."
"That's right again, do you want to continue?"
"continue."
In the chaos where everything is nothing, a murmur sounded slowly.
"The Hermit... Continue... Continue..."
Lu Li gradually frowned, and got closer because of the voice...
He opened his eyes at this moment, the nothingness faded away, and the bright sun shone between the tables and chairs.
"It's a 'bystander', you should stop." Fudot pursed his lips slightly, staring at the bloodshot that appeared on the edge of Lu Li's black pupils.
Because of relying on low sanity to bring inspiration, Lu Li slightly fell into a negative state called "bystander" by divination, and continued to divination, Lu Li's body may be temporarily occupied by some existence...
These disappeared when Lu Li picked up the doomsday apocalypse book, although inspiration disappeared.
At noon the next day, Lu Li fulfilled the words of the unnamed lady: by chance or necessity, the answer will be revealed tomorrow.
Divination Level 1 Trial, only Lu Li and the freckled girl named Vasili participated.
Vasily, who was praised by the unnamed lady for his talent, was surprised that Lu Li appeared here and waved at him.
Lu Li nodded in response and took his seat.
The icy gatekeeper handed out parchment papers, most of which are the same as other level 1 trials, only theoretical knowledge is required.
Only the last question changes: a tarot card is printed on parchment on the back.
【Divination of its card face】
Lu Li took out the apocalypse book, released his palm, and closed his eyes.
perceive...listen...contact.
"die……"
The lingering whispers of the cold breath sounded, and they approached quickly.
Lu Li opened his eyes suddenly, held the doomsday apocalypse book, and the coldness brought out from the nothingness quickly faded away.
In a short time, Lu Li is not suitable for divination again, but it is no longer necessary. After writing the answer on the parchment, Lu Li left the divination classroom.
A few minutes later, outside the rest area, Lu Li knocked on the door of the mysticism office.
"Professor Hagrid."
Professor Hagrid behind the door had mixed emotions with emotion and excitement.
"I know why you're here...can you give us some time to discuss it?"
