Chapter 23: The Key to Eternal Life

Medium.

When An Ling adapted to this sudden change, these two words popped up in her mind.

She felt that if Dean Fang was not cheating, he should be the mysterious group of people mentioned more than once in the "Adventure Manual".

In fact, there have been records about psychic media around the world, but in different regions, people call them differently. Here, people in ancient times usually called psychic media witches.

In some books that An Ling read, the witches described as strange powers and chaotic gods. In a more popular way, they are villains who wrote in ancient Chinese language when they were young and always wanted to capture young men and women to jump into the river to worship the gods.

The only difference is that in ancient Chinese, witches are often a character who confuses the public, and actually do not master the supernatural power, so that several villagers who learned the truth can easily capture them and send them to the guillotine.

But in fact, Marian mentioned in the "Advisor Manual" that the innate ability of the psychic medium is far higher than that of the witches, and many spells created by Marian later actually refer to many psychic magic techniques. Those people are definitely not equipped with hoes with only 3 attack power to deal with characters.

Of course, the main job of the real psychic media is not to catch people and sacrifice to the gods. They are one of the earliest groups in the records to deal with various supernatural phenomena. Therefore, before the witches formed a climate, the psychic media generally looked down on these people who became monks halfway.

In the 16th century, Marian was defeated by Green Winchester, which directly led to the Witches' Association being persecuted by the Holy See. In that chaotic era, the media also suffered unprecedented persecution, and later almost disappeared, and the only survivors also surrendered to the Witches' Association.

Whenever An Ling reads this history, she can't help but think of "Plastic Sisters".

She would like to call these two groups of people the first representative sisters.

Once the trouble came, the psychics immediately regarded the witch's last straw as the best sister, and they didn't remember how much they looked down on the witch before. However, it was precisely because of the plastic sisterhood that the witches had the most complete understanding of the psychics.

Although after the 16th century, witches and psychics were integrated with each other and the spells and magic used were almost the same, psychics still had advantages that witches did not have.

Among them, the most significant and most popular one is to predict the future.

Unlike Wang Lu's fortune telling that he can see luck by looking at the aura, some powerful psychics can use various ritual props to calculate the other party's fate in the next few years or even decades. Of course, it is extremely difficult to see these powerful psychics. An Ling heard that many wealthy businessmen may not be able to seek favor from the psychics.

In this era, the medium is an identity that has mastered the code of wealth.

What she is now in seems to be where the media once "worked", and the blonde young man sitting in front of her is waiting for her next sentence.

Just now, the blonde young man asked her a tricky question.

"Ms. Fang, what is the result of divination?"

After asking this, the blonde young man was very cultivating and did not continue to urge him, and waited quietly without saying a word.

First of all, Ms. Fang has been dropped.

Secondly, I am not a psychic and do not have the function of predicting the future.

However, when An Ling looked at the clouds and mists in the divination ball, some of the judgments of the pictures poured into her mind at the same time - these pictures were not the style of oil paintings, but the scenes that actually happened.

She saw that she seemed to be standing next to a wheat ear, looking up at the sky where the cracks kept appearing.

White beams of light continued to fall from the cracks, and one of them fell on a busy farmer beside her.

The farmer waving the hoe suddenly stopped the hoe. He left the farm work in his hand, and walked towards Anling with a fierce momentum as if he had suddenly become a person.

At the end of this segment, An Ling saw the white flame condensed in the farmer's palm. In an instant, it seemed that every cell in her body was burning like she used it.

The burning sensation was very short and lasted for less than a second.

An Ling kept gasping for breath. When she came to her senses, she returned to the world formed by oil paintings. Her creepy just now seemed like an illusion. When she looked at the crystal ball again, a fog fell into the crystal ball.

"Something has come down."

An Ling said with difficulty. She didn't know whether it was Dean Fang or the scene she had seen herself, but no matter what, the crystal ball reflected in it was not a good sign.

The beams of light landing from the cracks were dense, and she could not count the total number of light columns. She witnessed with her own eyes that the farmer who was shining by the white light column immediately became a monster that could use white flames to attack people.

and……

An Ling always felt that the white flame was a little familiar, and she must have seen it somewhere before.

"I'll feel relieved if I come here."

The young man opposite the table was not afraid, but smiled slightly and breathed a sigh of relief, "Although I don't believe in the ability to predict the future, it's okay to try it occasionally - but this also shows that your ability is true. It seems that hundreds of years ago, there were indeed some fish that escaped here."

A fish that misses the net?

An Ling didn't care about random thoughts. She was so energetic that she was so excited that she told her that this blonde young man who couldn't see clearly was definitely not an ordinary person.

"It's a pity that your ancestors didn't find what they were looking for on this continent."

An Ling's surprise was from the bottom of her heart. She felt that her tone and expression should perfectly match Dean Fang's performance at the beginning, "What are they... looking for?"

“The key to eternal life.”

The young man said, "That key is neither in the Witch Club nor here."

When the young man said this, An Ling immediately recalled another characteristic of the media.

Although the talent of the psychic medium and the ability to comprehend mantras are far higher than that of witches, they have an innate disadvantage - the spell of witches' eternal youth is not effective for the psychic medium. Not only does the psychic medium not live for eternity, but its lifespan is much shorter than that of ordinary people. For psychic mediums, forty or fifty years is a long life, and there are many psychic mediums who cannot live for thirty years.

Any talent is in secretly indicating the price. In Marian's words, the innate talent of the medium is exchanged for a short life span.

The deeper you know the spell and the more you predict the future, the closer they will be to death.

If Dean Fang is a psychic medium, then she is probably the longest-lived psychic medium in history.

"As you reward me for divination, I will tell you one thing."
