Chapter 4 The Arrival of the Lion
"Prophet? Are you a prophet?"
Sani exclaimed.
Predictors, or prophets, have similar occupations in most worlds, but basically they only exist in rumors, and it is rare to see living people.
Of course, Sani and Hamu have also heard the rumors of the prophet, but after learning magic, they are actually in touch with the truth of this world. Witches do not believe most of the rumors about the prophet, even if someone has predicted The occurrence of certain events, they also think it is a coincidence, or some kind of speculation.
After all, if he could really predict the future, this kind of power would be terrifying. No one in this world would be his opponent, his enemies would be easily killed, and it would not be difficult to dominate the world.
Chen Bing said that he was a prophet and he was still so young, Sani didn't want to believe it from the bottom of her heart.
But Chen Bing was right in front of her, learning magic from scratch, and instantly gave birth to a magic to the magic guide level, which was much more amazing than the deeds of those rumored prophets.
"If you don't believe me, let me tell you one more thing. In the world that I prophesied, Hamu, I saw your past, and I got to know you, knowing your hidden past."
Chen Bing continued.
Naturally, he said these not to pretend or explain why he could learn and upgrade magic so quickly, but to want Hamu and Sani to be his assistants.
Time was still too tight, he was the one to do everything, and Chen Bing couldn't leave.
But the three had just met, and they wanted Hamu and Sani to help him, but ordinary means would not work.
In the last game, in order to gain Ke Jielia's trust, Chen Bing took the initiative to tell him his origin.
In order to gain the trust of the two of them this time, Chen Bing also considered telling him the real origin directly, but after thinking twice, he decided to fabricate the identity of a prophet.
The reason is very simple. Chen Bing actually doesn't know much about Hamu and Sani. The last time the two separated after they arrived in Verona City, he hardly understood what they did afterwards.
Chen Bing was worried that the two of them might reveal his background without knowing it. After all, Hamu was being targeted by Gerald, and it was very possible that Gerald would let someone get in touch with them again.
So Chen Bing used the identity of a prophet. In this way, many problems can be solved. As long as Hamu and Sani believe, they will follow Chen Bing's command.
In case they accidentally revealed his identity, the mastermind behind the scenes might not take it too seriously.
After all, the prophet, in the eyes of those who control their own destiny, is a liar. Even if he believes a little, he will find a way to confirm it, so that Chen Bing will have time to react.
"You know my past?" Hamu stared blankly at Chen Bing, his breathing became short of breath and his chest heaved.
Her past is only known to very few people.
"Yes, you told me yourself, I can tell you if you don't mind." Chen Bing nodded.
"Hamu, let's go, don't get involved with him."
Looking at Hamu's gradually pale face, Sani said in a little panic.
"Let's go? I advise you not to do this. Don't talk about Hamu's past. I know exactly what the Warrior will encounter next. Let's put it this way, Hamu, the Warrior will encounter a storm. To Sea-Monster, it’s actually because of you!”
Chen Bing knew that Sani was frightened, but instead of letting them go, he said heavily.
"Because of me? Why?"
Hamu couldn't help asking.
"I fell in love with your magical talent. You are a rare witch genius and proficient in ancient languages. If I don't come this time, the Warrior will be blown to pieces in the storm, and you will fall into the sea, and then there will be a ship named Lion The big ship of the "Lion" just sailed here and rescued you. You were rescued in a desperate situation, and naturally I would be grateful to those who saved you. At that time, the captain of the "Lion" will ask Hamu to help him interpret a picture with the legendary witch " The secret map of the Crimson Eye."
Chen Bing told the two of them what was going to happen next.
"The Lion will find us at midnight,
Then you will know whether what I said is true or not. "
...
"Sister Hamu, do you think that person is really a prophet from another world?"
Sani and Hamu had gone back to the room to change their wet clothes and rest. Sani couldn't help but ask Hamu who seemed a little silent.
"I have seen or heard of some liars who claim to have the ability to predict. Their greatest ability is to perceive words and expressions, say some specious things, and mislead you, making you think that he predicted the occurrence of events. And like I've never seen or heard of someone who articulates what's going to happen next like this."
Hamu said slowly.
A liar will not deceive people like this. After all, when the time is up and the things he said do not happen or appear, it is tantamount to telling others that he is a liar.
"Or the Lion was actually found by him, and he was with him?"
Sani questioned.
"What about magic?" Hamu smiled wryly, "His magic book was activated by myself, I can be sure that before that, he hadn't activated the magic book, nor had he learned magic, so it can't be faked. "
"I'm also a magic genius, but compared with him, that's the gap between a giant and a baby. With such amazing magic talent, I can't think of any reason why he needs to lie to me so painstakingly. Don't say a prophet, as long as He showed his amazing talent in magic in front of us, and then said that he was willing to accept us as apprentices and teach us, I think we would be willing to go with him and help him do anything."
After hearing Hamu's words, Sani also remained silent.
Hamu was right. As witches, they put all their energy into learning magic.
There is such a talented person who said to teach them, that is a huge temptation that no witch can refuse.
Time passed, and the pale midnight moonlight shrouded the Warrior.
Sani and Hamu didn't sleep, they waited silently at the stern of the boat.
"Sister Hamu, look over there!"
Suddenly, Sani shook Hamu's shoulder violently.
On the distant sea, under the pale moonlight, there was a hazy shadow of a ship, and this ship was heading straight towards them.
"Hey, the storm was very violent before, your boat didn't move, are you okay?"
The boat came quickly, and the people on the boat were the first to see Sani and Hamu at the stern, and immediately shouted.
"Something went wrong and we might need your help!"
Before they could answer, Chen Bing came over and said to the people on board.
"No problem, it's rare to meet at sea, and it's right to help each other. Don't move your boat, our Lion is approaching you."
Under the call of the sailors on board, the Lion gradually approached the Warrior.
A rope ladder was thrown from the Lion and landed on the Warrior, and several crew members climbed up the rope ladder from the Lion.
"Hello, I'm Yassin, the captain of the Lion, what's wrong with your ship?"
One of them stepped forward and asked with a smile.
