Chapter 591: Predicting the Future and the Savior

Chapter 591: Chapter 591: Predicting the Future and the Savior

"Our Twin Snakes’ president has a special ability to predict major future events," the person in a gray-robed explained, "He has foreseen that our Zone 014 will soon face an overwhelming disaster, which will result in many deaths and put Zone 014 at the risk of destruction. That’s why the president founded Twin Snakes, to prepare for this calamity."

"If that’s the case, your president should go to the Special Defense Department," Xu Huo interjected with a hint of schadenfreude, "The Special Defense Department has so many players; Twin Snakes can muster at most a hundred or so, right? Don’t tell me your president wants to be a savior?"

"Of course not!" the person in the gray robe responded decisively, "The president certainly considered cooperating with the Special Defense Department, but he also predicted that the turning point isn’t with the Special Defense Department, but with some players who haven’t yet made a name for themselves."

"Twin Snakes has held multiple gatherings to find these players, and among the eight present, there may be one who is the chosen candidate."

The players wearing white masks looked at each other. Although they were suspicious, their guard was now somewhat lowered. The player wearing Buddhist beads in front of the person in the gray robe raised his hand, "I have a question, how do you confirm the candidate?"

"Predicting the future can’t be precise enough to include facial recognition," he said, "Especially since we’re all wearing masks."

Yet the person in the gray robe spoke as if shrouded in mystery, "This is the guidance of the future. The president only told us to issue the invitations. The player who will be able to turn the tide and save Zone 014 will appear. We just need to wait."

"Is it because of the mask?" Huang Junjie asked, "The person you’re looking for will definitely choose a white mask?"

"But there are many people who’ve chosen the white mask," the female player commented, "Far more than just eight, right?"

"We certainly have other methods, but that is not something we can disclose," the person in gray-robed took out a crystal ball the size of a human head and placed it on the table, "Although we’ve roughly narrowed it down to eight people, that is still just an approximation. The savior who the president said will lead Zone 014 against disaster might not necessarily be among you, but an important follower to the savior will definitely be. Those present today as players might not end up being the one, but you can still join Twin Snakes and become the future’s guides."

"Your presence here is definitely not by chance. There must be destiny guiding you. I can assure you, once you join Twin Snakes, you will receive the best training, not just a steady supply of items and potions, but higher-level players will accompany you through instances until you can stand on your own."

This speech immediately quickened the players’ breathing, and soon someone stepped forward to ask, "Then how do you determine who is the future savior?"

"With a special item," the person in the gray robe pointed at the crystal, "As I said earlier, your appearance here isn’t by chance. This is a high-level item that can predict a person’s future vaguely and present it through certain special images."

As he said this, he approached the crystal ball and stood still for thirty seconds. Afterwards, the crystal ball cast a weak light upward, within which one could faintly make out the pattern of a dagger.

"Everyone casts a different pattern, which generally relates to their own style of actions and character choices, but the dagger has nothing to do with the president’s prediction."

"So what pattern represents the savior?" Xu Huo folded his arms and said, "You have to give us an explanation first. Otherwise, when the time comes, whatever you point to will be it. How can I know you’re not just making things up?"

"Good point," Huang Junjie added.

"What’s it to you!" A person in a black robe snapped impatiently.

The person in the gray robe raised his hand to stop his subordinate and then continued, "The three patterns have already provided enough clues. The savior, of course, is related to light. Please go ahead, everyone."

Of the eight players in white masks, half seemed tempted, and after some hesitation, someone stepped forward. Thirty seconds later, the crystal projected the image of a gun.

The person in gray-robed sighed, "No, that’s not it."

The player stepped aside, somewhat reluctantly, and was quickly followed by the second one, whose projection was a square, blurry shadow that was unclear.

"Is this it?" the player asked.

The person in the gray robe hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Are you willing to join Twin Snakes?"

It was clear to everyone that this player wasn’t the one either, and after some hesitation, the player replied, "If it’s really as you say, I wouldn’t mind joining Twin Snakes."

The person in the gray robe immediately took him on as a disciple and even gave him an item.

The third contender was the player with the Buddhist beads, who cast an interesting thing, a small mirror.

One by one, the players wearing white masks tried their luck, but it seemed none was the one Twin Snakes was looking for. The person in gray-robed visibly lost enthusiasm. When it was Sima Xiao’er’s turn, the crystal surprisingly projected a glowing sphere.

"It’s actually you!" the person in the gray robe exclaimed with joy and immediately bowed, "From today on, you are Twin Snakes’ White Envoy!"

Sima Xiao’er was utterly baffled and it wasn’t until his item effect was removed by the person in the gray robe that he said, "White Envoy?"

"The White Envoy is the player mentioned in the president’s predictions. Maybe you’re not the most central one, but you will definitely play a crucial role. The White Envoy’s authority in Twin Snakes is second only to the president. You can freely use Twin Snakes’ items and potions, and every instance will have players accompanying you to ensure your safety!"

Level D players can buy tickets, and it wouldn’t be too difficult to obtain tickets to the same instance.

Then two people in black robes carried a white robe over, respectfully draping it over Sima Xiao’er, and they all bowed their heads in honor, their attitudes having changed drastically compared to before.

Guan Zuhong and Xiao Zhang, who had come with Brother Liang to investigate the players’ disappearances, now suddenly felt that the disappearances might not be genuine and that the missing individuals could have been taken into protective custody as important figures.

Xu Huo watched this absurd scene and became even more curious about Twin Snakes’ motives. The white masked players they had selected were weak and easily swayed, not even worth the effort for basic robbery, and it wasn’t likely pure sincerity in wanting white mask players to join Twin Snakes... Could there be some special reason? Or was this just a ruse?

Moreover, his gaze shifted outside the window, where some players must have already left the resort. Those still here were either swayed to stay or were members of Twin Snakes. He had become separated from Guan Sheng and Qian Xuwen, and whether they were dead or alive outside, the Special Defense Department would have received the news. No one had come in to check yet—could something unexpected have happened?

Just then, a loud bang came from upstairs, shaking the entire building, and every window pane on several floors shattered. The person in the gray robe rushed forward to shield Sima Xiao’er, shouting, "Quick, through the hidden passage!"

A group of people in black robes surrounded Sima Xiao’er and entered the door in the dining area, with the remaining players in white masks hastily following. Xu Huo took a couple of steps forward, and called out loudly, "Are you taking those three with us?"

Sima Xiao’er turned back and said to the person in gray-robed, "They are my friends, bring them all!"
