Chapter 570: The Foresight of the Scale-Feathered Lord

"... Lord of Scales and Feathers?"

Pure White was obviously very surprised by this answer.

She had never thought of this name.

In her opinion, it was normal for Aiwas to choose the Silver Crown Dragon, after all, he was the future Prince of Avalon; it was normal for him to choose the Candlestick, after all, he was the chosen one of the Devotion Path whose speed of mastering divine arts was miraculous; it was even normal for him to choose the Twin Mirror, after all, as a saint, she could see that Aiwas was branded with the blessing given by the Twin Mirror.

But only the Lord of Scales and Feathers - she had no idea where the connection between Him and Aiwas would be.

But since Aiwas had already been determined, she would not try to make changes to Aiwas on her own initiative.

Although the biggest threshold for high-level divine arts is to master this skill, drilling a hole in the soul and leaving space for one's will to hide is also a craft.

The former is like getting a piece of high-quality jade, while the latter is like unraveling this piece of jade and carving it into different ornaments. The former is either there or not, while the latter depends on personal level - and for jades of different materials and sizes, even the top masters have a limit.

Take Chunbai herself as an example... If she had signed a contract with any other celestial officials or apostles in the middle, then with her qualifications, it would be impossible to complete the achievement of connecting the nine pillars. There are also some cardinals who have exhausted their potential after completing two or three or four contracts, so every choice is important, not just the order.

This is something that only you can decide - only you can take responsibility.

So Chunbai just mentioned the risks of high-level divine arts to Aiwas again. After Aiwas confirmed it again, he began to teach Aiwas the ceremony of signing the contract with the Lord of Scales and Feathers.

After explaining the general process, Chunbai simply took Aiwas to the ninth floor.

She led Aiwas to find another cardinal in a room deep in the ninth ring -

When they found him, the other party was sitting cross-legged inside a complex ritual array.

Aiwas had never seen such a complex ritual array - the ritual array shining with flowing light was like the starry sky, covering the entire room of more than 20 square meters. On the ground, walls, ceiling... In addition to the parts that looked like they were painted, there were also metals and jades embedded in the walls.

This ritual array was humming and surging, and the nine-color path power visible to the naked eye turned into rainbow-colored fragments of light, overflowing in the space.

When Aiwas saw the other party, he was shocked.

Because the other party didn't look like a living person at all -

It was an old elf.

From his old and withered face, you can still clearly see his handsomeness when he was young. The amber pupils were bright and energetic, as if there was a flame burning at the bottom of the pupils.

He had two long hairs hanging down from his temples and a long goatee on his chin. He sat cross-legged in the center of the ritual array, with his hands crossed in front of him and hanging naturally, looking like he was meditating.

If he hadn't been wearing a mercury-colored cardinal robe, Aiwas would even feel that his temperament was very similar to that of an old Taoist priest.

But contrary to this bright and vibrant feeling.

The old elf stretched out his two intersecting hands, one of which was completely withered and black, and very obviously woody; while the other turned into a beautiful gem that gradually changed from deep red to amber.

——Treeization and amber.

The two terminal diseases of elves appeared on one person at the same time.

"This is Cardinal Cyril."

Pure White introduced Aiwass: "The cardinal in charge of the Ninth Circle.

"In fact, generally speaking... if you wait for the other bishops to arrive before learning advanced divine arts, you will also come to the Ninth Circle to receive the teachings of Cardinal Cyril."

"I know."

Aiwass nodded: "Cardinal Matilda told me. Although our accommodation is in the Fifth Circle, the place of study is in the Ninth Ring."

"It's good that you know, Aiwass."

Pure White nodded with relief: "Cardinal Cyril is one of the very few elves who mastered the ritual technique. It would be safer for him to preside over your first ceremony. ”

Hearing the name "Evans", the old man who had been silent all the time suddenly spoke slowly: "It's been a long time since we last met. Or should I say, first meeting?"

Evans was stunned for a moment.

This sentence inexplicably reminded Aihuas of the Lord of Scales and Feathers.

When the other party saw him in his dream, he said this sentence. Almost word for word.

... Could he be the incarnation of the Lord of Scales and Feathers?

Seeing Aihuas stunned. The corners of the old man's mouth slightly raised, revealing a happy smile.

He laughed heartily: "Or should I say, I have heard of your name for a long time... Mr. [Fox].

"——I am Huoyin. We have met before... I knew at that time that you were a genius and would definitely come to the Church. But I didn't expect that you would master the advanced divine arts so quickly. You will be in the Church for at most two or three months."

"... Mr. Huoyin!"

When Aihuas heard this name, he immediately thought of it, and his uneasy heart was relieved.

He saluted politely: "Long time no see, Mr. Huoyin."

This is the person he met from Pure White when he first saw her in his dream.

Jacaranda should be Cardinal Matilda, and Huoyin is Cardinal Cyril. That is, the one Topal has not seen in reality.

But...even the last sentence is exactly the same as what the Lord of Scales and Feathers said when he greeted him at that time.

...Is it a prophecy?

Evans thought of what he saw and heard after the promotion ceremony.

Although now, the memory in the dream has become much more blurred. He can't even remember the appearance of the Lord of Scales and Feathers... But those few words, and the touch of the handshake, are still very clear in Aihuas' heart.

He chose the Lord of Scales and Feathers, not just because he is the "God of Lightspeed Final Payment, the God of Generosity".

One of the big reasons is that Aihuas felt a kind of respect and importance from him.

This is also the reason why Aihuas subconsciously called the Lord of Scales and Feathers "boss"... He had a sense of déjà vu when he met the boss as a worker.

Although strictly speaking, this relationship is still not equal from a social perspective... But from a higher perspective, it is at least like two humans chatting.

Whether it is Sizhu, Silver Crown Dragon, or Twin Mirror, they are all very friendly to Aihuas. But that feeling is high and mighty, and there is no doubt that there is a gap in status between humans and gods - it is compassion, curiosity, and pity. Of course, because the other party is indeed an immortal god, Aiwass has never felt anything wrong.

However, the Lord of Scales and Feathers is an outlier.

Perhaps because of "adaptation", He is particularly good at speaking human words to people and speaking ghost words to ghosts... But He is at least willing to adapt to "humans" for Aiwass!

When talking with the Lord of Scales and Feathers, Aiwas felt like chatting with people... Just like when he met Tianluosha and Zhu Tiansi, the conversation was much more relaxed. There was no element of riddle man, the conversation was very clear and efficient.

And the last sentence.

"——I hope we will have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

Cooperation.

Aiwass likes this word.

In his previous life, he resigned voluntarily because he didn't like the condescending attitude of his previous boss. That guy treated Aiwas as a tool and arbitrarily disposed of unnecessary people; and when he needed talents, he asked Aiwas to find a way. In the end, he was the one who boasted, and he was the one who took the blame... In the end, he was not a human on both sides.

Rather than a tool, it's better to say that he is a dog. Throw some bones to tame it, let it bite when it should, and take it out for a walk when it feels good... Although the salary was good and Aiwas could reach a senior position before the age of 35, he still gave up the job.

He later applied for the screenwriter position of Faceless God Studio because he had a good chat with the well-known game producer, the boss of Faceless God Studio. With the introduction of his roommate, the boss read his resume and added his contact information personally, and chatted with Aiwas for an afternoon.

Although in the end, based on the salary and work experience, he still persuaded Aiwas to come to his side as HR.

But the feeling was completely different from the previous boss - even if it was just a performance, Aiwas did feel sincerity and respect. Even if he would never enter the screenwriter department in the end, when he proposed the plot and mechanism suggestions in the game to the boss, the other party also gave feedback very seriously, and talked for a full eight hours... and was extremely serious and enthusiastic, and at the same time very sensible.

It was a very strong, optimistic and cheerful infectious power. It seemed that just chatting with the other party could dispel the depression in my heart; it seemed that I could become friends with anyone, and I could become the strong cohesion of the environment and the absolute leadership center.

At that time, Aiwas even had an illusion that "I might be friends with the boss" - of course, he also knew that this was an illusion. After all, he had never even seen the other party.

This may be personal charm, or leadership.

The boss was like the Lord of Scales and Feathers, giving Aiwas enough respect.

... It was also because of the good conversation that Aiwas was hit by a mud truck and came to this world because he lowered his head to read the news while crossing the road.

- Even if it was just the kind of acting that came from "adapting to the way", at least the other party was willing to perform seriously in person, and Aiwas was willing to choose the other party.

Perhaps the Lord of Scales and Feathers understood the essence of Aiwas, so he said these words that were inconsistent at that time.

The first three sentences were the words of greeting when he met Huoyin.

"——When applying for a job, if both parties reach an agreement...what should we say? Congratulations?"

"——Then congratulations. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future."

The following two sentences are about Aiwass finally learning "higher divine arts" and choosing Him first.

Because only the ceremony of higher divine arts can be called "application".

And the Lord of Scales and Feathers' attitude is also very clear-He has agreed in advance.

When He said "happy cooperation in the future", He meant that Aiwass would use higher divine arts to reach a contract with Him.

——All these things happened in the Lord of Scales and Feathers's foresight.

He openly put his foresight in front of Aiwass.

In a way that would not frustrate Aiwass's self-esteem or make him feel dangerous, he laughed and showed off the power he possessed.

From the past, answer the question from the future.
