Chapter 292 Sacred Objects and Prophecies

"If you come to me as a friend, I will do my best to help you without even asking for a reward, because your enemy is also my enemy.

But it's a pity that you don't regard me as a friend, but choose a deal. "

"Do you think I'm short of money? Or something that you can't afford at all? I just want to give you a chance after getting acquainted.

but what about you "

Lance looked down at her, his dissatisfaction was undisguised.

"Let me down again and again, without respecting me even a little bit, and taking the opportunities I gave you for granted, have you forgotten who you are?"

Lance's words directly exposed her little thoughts, and the blunt words did not give her any face, and directly made her fall into a state of embarrassment.

The source of Tamara's overly "shrewd" character was that she fell from the altar by accident, and then escaped and was hunted down by the Roma.

The organization that was originally her backing, with a sense of belonging, suddenly became an enemy. This living environment left her with nowhere to rely on, and she had to live on her own. For this reason, she did not hesitate at all costs. Only pediatrics.

Because in her conception, the organizations that raised her and grew up can "betray" herself, so feelings are all fake, and only benefits are real.

But in fact, her behavior of not trusting anyone is just a manifestation of her lack of security, and it is her desire for security that is why she is so extreme.

It seems contradictory, but it is reasonable, because only what is lacking will always emphasize something.

Lance's words made her fall into reflection.

How does this man treat himself?

And how did you treat him?
Tamara knew very well that she knew the man in front of her was a big fish when she first met her.

Because there are ordinary people who are curious about the occult every day, just need to use a little tricks, and throw out a few pieces of garbage with stories to empty their wealth, and I am grateful to Dade for this.

Not to mention that ring made her even more excited, and many of her collections were obtained in this way.

Originally, she had imagined that he should be able to hand over the ring with a few words, but she didn't expect her tricks to be seen through, and she suffered a big loss instead.

Tamara was actually ready to do it when she was found out, but she didn't expect that this person was not angry and invited herself instead.

Naturally, she didn't believe these things, so she hurriedly threw out some well-known information to confuse him, and then ran away.

It was already a life-and-death crisis to meet again, and he was rescued and sent here to recuperate, and he didn't mention what happened at that time to threaten and force him along the way.

On the contrary, he was ignorant of current affairs and entangled him many times, so he was not angry, and he was too good-tempered.

Except for the teacher, it was the first time someone treated her so well, but she took his kindness for granted and didn't cherish it.

He was right, it is completely self-inflicted to be reduced to today's situation.

Regret and guilt shouldn't have appeared in her heart, but at this moment they all came to her mind.

Once there was an opportunity in front of me but I didn't cherish it. I didn't know until I lost it...

"Okay, get up and talk about business." Lance held out his hand to her.

This move made Tamara's face full of surprise, and she hurriedly stretched out her hands to grab it firmly.

"We're still friends, right?"

Lance was somewhat speechless hearing her words, and climbed up with a stick.

But he still pulled her up casually, and then corrected: "No, my friend is not so cheap, this is a deal."

As he said that, he wanted to withdraw his hand, but found that Tamara didn't even think about letting go. Looking up, it was her tear-stained, red and watery eyes, a face that I still felt pitiful for.

But Lance still opened her fingers with a blank expression, pulled out his hand neatly, and then staggered away from her to carry those things.

"I will do what I promised. If I promise to help you as a middleman, I will naturally do it well. But I must have something, and you have to add money for your deception just now. Except for the collection, the money is also mine."

I'm just talking, why do you take it seriously?

Brothers in the real world have to settle accounts clearly, and you are not mine, so how could you not give me money if you ask me for help.

Although most of them are rubbish, the [Sunshine Ring], [Unholy Buster], and [Legendary Bracers] are extraordinary equipment with practical value, which can directly enhance the strength of the team.

And although the [Saint Torch] lost most of its power, it is still possible to recover, which is also a good thing.

And who would think less money?There are at least a thousand gold coins, not too many, but definitely a lot.

Do you want to renege on a "friend"?

What are you kidding...

Tamara also knew she was wrong, so she could only let Lance empty the things.

"By the way, tell me about the situation of the Omen Seekers organization, so I can help you talk about it." Lance picked up the gold coins scattered on the ground while getting back to business.

When Tamara heard this, she didn't speak directly, but seemed a little hesitant.

Her reaction was caught by Lance, who couldn't help but reminded with a sneer, "They are the ones who want to kill you."

But suddenly she realized that she was no longer a member of the Omen Seekers, she was a defector.

Tamara is actually a very entangled person. She got her most glorious time at that time, and people always miss the glory of the past unconsciously.

For this reason, she poured all the hatred she encountered on Amanda, thinking that this bitch harmed her and took away everything that belonged to her.

Instead of placing hatred on the Roma group, it has not been placed on organizations.

So subconsciously, she still thinks that she is a member of her organization and still has feelings for the Roma.

But Lance's words also made her understand that the fantasy she had was unrealistic.

"The Omen-Seeker is a Roma..."

She just mentioned it briefly before, but now she explains the organization in detail.

The main business of this thing is to sell information, and it also works part-time as an intermediary to communicate with all walks of life and resell extraordinary items.

And the Omen Seekers with a solid foundation of Roma are also very powerful, spreading all over the world, but there is also a drawback that they are relatively conservative, and their members are only Roma.

However, thanks to this structure, the interior of the Omen Seeker is still very stable, and Tamara's behavior is purely accidental.

"There are departments with different divisions of labor within the Omen Seeker. At the top are several elders. Amanda's extraordinary talent is actually average, and her department is dedicated to strengthening combat capabilities and is responsible for solving the most difficult tasks."

Tamara can admit defeat to Lance, but she must not admit defeat to Amanda, and she still doesn't forget to complain about her talent at this time.

But this kind of "average" is only a relative term. From the fact that she can't beat Amanda after the difference in the growth environment between the two, it can be seen that the talent gap between the two should not be too big.

Under certain circumstances, she can only talk to this one now to save herself some embarrassment.

Lance was also lazy to expose her, but after thinking for a while, he asked: "What about the sacred object, how important is it to them?"

Tamara didn't make any small moves this time, and took out the things honestly.

It was a palm-sized metal disc with a unique shape, and the flat mirror surface was carved with complicated lines, and ordinary people could not understand the meaning contained in it.

"This is an astrolabe called [Astrologer]. According to legend, this thing was made of a piece of meteorite iron with magical power found by the ancestors of the Roma from a place where a meteorite fell. It is matched with this piece. A crystal ball called [Stargazer], according to legend, the combination of the two can spy on the truth of the universe."

Speaking of this, Tamara let out a sigh of relief, and talked about the accident that year.

"My supernatural talent is very good. For this reason, I was trained by a teacher who specializes in astrology, and my studies went very smoothly. Among the few people I was with, no one could catch up with me. In wasting theory.

Until I borrowed this set of relics from my teacher, I wanted to use the power of the relics to start a formal astrology ceremony and become a real astrologer, which also represented that I officially became a member of the omen seekers. A perfect ending.

The ceremony went smoothly at first, but..."

Speaking of which, Tamara stopped suddenly, and there was a sense of fear in her expression.

"But what?" Lance sounded right, how uncomfortable it is to be stuck by you?

"I..." Tamara hesitated a little, but finally said it out, "I saw a sphere suspended in the black void shatter, and an indescribable mass of flesh and blood emerged from the sphere..."

Hearing this description, Lance suddenly felt startled, his body felt like an electric shock, and the muscles of his limbs went numb for a while.

Fortunately, he held back and didn't show too obvious a reaction.

Now he understood how terrifying the talent that Tamara had been boasting about was, because the sphere she saw was the planet under her feet, and the mass of flesh and blood was the sleeping ancient god.

That is the object that the ancestor coveted, committed so many crimes, and always wanted to replace him.

And the broken planet is the ending screen that must appear in the game.

It shows that no matter whether you kill the ancestor or stop his actions, the ancient god is destined to wake up when the stars return.

This planet will inevitably fall into destruction in the end, no matter how you resist, you will eventually fall into deep, dark despair.

She actually predicted this.

I don't know why a sentence came to Lance's mind subconsciously: That's why she came to Hamlet!
And these words echoed uncontrollably in his mind.

Yes, she came to Hamlet because she saw it.

A certain kind of fatalism came to Lance's mind, and he felt that Tamara's being here was an arrangement of fate.

Lance suppressed his cluttered thoughts. It was still too far away to destroy those things. It might be tomorrow, or it might be millions of years later.

The same fate, destiny, and mission are too illusory.

Now Lance only understands one thing, that is, Tamara is a talent and a key to salvation.

After realizing the importance of Tamara, he originally just wanted to take the opportunity to collect her collection, but now Lance is going to include her in the big plan.

"...that scene just passed away in a flash, and then I lost consciousness. When I woke up, I found out from them that I was out of control. Fortunately, several elders were also present to control the situation, but I stopped soon. When I got the news, I was..."

When Lance was brainstorming, she was still talking about what happened at that time, but Tamara soon noticed his strangeness.

"Any questions?"

"You can't return the sacred object!" Lance came back to his senses, looked at Tamara with determination, and threw out a word.

"Huh?" Tamara was a little caught off guard.

If you don't return the sacred object, how can you make the omen seeker give up chasing and killing you without this precondition?

This was the request you had been emphasizing just now, why did you deny it in such a short while?

Tamara's ability must be related to those two holy relics, and if he really wants to return them, there is no possibility of touching them again, unless he really leads troops to kill the Roma and snatch them back.

But this is very impractical for the wandering people all over the world. There are not many branches. How do you find the exact location of the opposite side?
Therefore, one part must be kept in hand to have the opportunity to seek another part.

Moreover, he had to keep Tamara, because no one knew what role she would play.

Damn it, Lance suddenly realized that what he just said was too full, instead he took the initiative to cut the relationship between the two, and for a while there was no excuse for not cutting in, and he didn't know how to explain it for a while.

"Well... I was thinking about one thing." Lance paused for a while before explaining, "I underestimated the power of the omen seekers before, if they are really as powerful as you said, when you return the holy object It is your time of death, even if you don't kill you directly, but you can kill you with a spell from afar, then even I can't save you.

On the contrary, things in your hands can make them feel afraid, because they don't know the exact situation of the holy object, and your death means that the clues are completely lost. "

When the relationship between the two is estranged and there is no entry point to bring the relationship closer, the easiest way is to establish a common enemy.

Obviously that's what Lance did, putting all the blame on the Omen Seeker, even if the reality is not that simple.

Tamara, who didn't trust Amanda in the first place, agreed after hearing this.

"That's right, I think so too, but isn't there no possibility of easing up between me and them..."

Tamara was really tired. She defected to steal the holy relic in one breath, and after so many years of hunting, she wanted to stop, but it was not up to her to decide.

"Have you ever killed a sign seeker? Or a Roma?" Lance looked at her and reminded, "Don't tell me lies~"

"No!" Tamara hastily denied, "No matter how I say it, I am familiar with their methods, and with the cover of a sacred object, only Amanda can catch up with me when I am performing missions outside."

"That means that you and the organization don't have too serious a conflict in essence." Lance understood why Amanda was so indifferent to Tamara.

Because perhaps for the omen seekers, Tamara is just a little mouse that escaped, and no one inside even remembers this former genius.
