Chapter 355: Both soft and hard tactics
The sudden sound of noisy drums and powerful strumming strings made the fortune teller frown.
"WTF?"
He walked in front of Lin Yu and saw that the clothes on his chest were shaking slightly.
That's also where the sound originates.
The fortune teller had an ominous premonition in his heart. He hooked his finger, and then Lin Yu's coat was turned open.
A cell phone floated out from the inner pocket of Lin Yu's coat.
That phone doesn't look like it belongs to "Lin Yu".
This is a small mini phone with a light pink appearance.
The reason it was playing music was because a phone call came in.
The screen displayed "Unknown Caller" and the green answer button was flickering.
The fortune teller hesitated for a moment and pressed the hang-up button.
But there was no response.
No matter whether he touched or dragged it, the red hang-up button was just a decoration, like a beautiful gourmet model in a food display, without any real interaction with him.
This silent attempt seemed to be a voice from somewhere warning the fortune teller...
"You have to pick it up right away."
The fortune teller sighed and pressed the hands-free button to answer the call.
"Hello, who is it?"
He asked helplessly.
A mechanical laugh came from the other end of the phone: "Ha, ha, ha... didn't you expect it?"
"At least you should be able to guess it, right?"
The fortune teller heard the electronic synthesized voice and gently rubbed his temple. "If it really is you... I said, a 'Robin' and a 'First Order' shouldn't allow me to calculate an 'unlucky' or even 'dangerous' hexagram."
"So you're behind this... What? You're also interested in the legacy of the Psychological Society?"
As the fortune teller spoke, the person on the other end of the line laughed again.
"Ha, ha... not really."
"I'm calling because I hope you'll give me some face and let the two people around you go."
The fortune teller narrowed his eyes when he heard the movement coming from the speaker.
"What if I don't give it to you?"
"That doesn't matter, but I will do my best to show my sincerity..."
As the voice on the phone spoke, a noisy electrical sound was heard - as if the signal was being interfered with.
But the "sizzling" sound of electricity soon came not only from the speakers, but also around the entire island.
Above the sky, dark green numbers flowed like a waterfall, as if an invisible dome opened and closed.
The noisy snowflakes and dancing garbled characters covered the ground, causing the fortune teller to change color slightly.
"[Digital Barrier]... What are you going to do?"
As he spoke, a cursor appeared out of thin air in the center of the sky under the dome in response.
"RULE ONE: There is no DEUS."
One leaping letter after another appeared, accompanied by an unquestionable voice coming from the phone.
"Rule One: Higher-dimensional beings are prohibited from entering this area."
Then, a ball of fur flew out from the cracks in the island's rocks and was thrown out of the green flowing screen.
"Wow!"
The voice on the phone rang again: "How is it, fortune teller, my sincerity is good, right?"
"At least until I agree, those gods, demigods, and other miscellaneous things will not bother you."
The fortune teller pondered for a moment, then began to move his fingers.
"This girl from the Night's Watch... well, not her."
"What's your relationship with this guy?"
The voice on the phone laughed: "It doesn't matter, I just think highly of him."
"Oh, really..."
The fortune teller pondered for a moment and said, "Then we can't keep him here any longer."
As he said that, he threw his phone into the sea.
The little pink phone drew an arc in the air, but soon turned back strangely and flew in mid-air.
"That's so rude, but luckily I'm on airplane mode!"
A voice of relief came from the phone.
The fortune teller's eye twitched. "What kind of flight mode is this?"
"Anyway, anyway, it seems like you don't want to eat soft things and want to eat hard things?"
The pink phone brought the topic back on track and said with a hint of threat.
"I've never been easily persuaded," the fortune teller said calmly. "Once I've decided to do something, no one can stop me."
"I know you have many skills, 'hacker,' but you lack only 'positive' skills."
"Even if you can prevent the gods from entering this place and throw the 'Fragment of Fate' out, but if I'm already prepared to make certain sacrifices, can you really stop me?"
The fortune teller asked back, and there was silence on the other end of the phone.
"You really hit a sore spot. You're such a nuisance. You're always exposing other people's shortcomings."
"Are you absolutely going to kill him? No room for negotiation?"
The voice on the phone asked, and the fortune teller nodded.
"If you didn't want to keep him so badly, I wouldn't have such a strong desire to get rid of him..."
"But then again, your ban on the gods actually helped me. This guy seems to be quite 'favored' by the gods."
The electronic synthesized voice on the phone sighed.
"Of course I know, idiot. I just don't want him to owe those guys any more favors... He has to choose his own path."
The fortune teller sneered, "But now he has only one way to go, which is death."
"Not always."
The voice on the phone said.
"Why, you're still planning to come in person?" the fortune teller sighed. "But even if that's the case, it's too late."
"No, not me. Besides, there's still time."
After saying that, the phone was hung up abruptly.
The fortune teller frowned as he listened to the other party's last incoherent rebuttal.
"He's talking nonsense."
He cursed, then threw the phone aside again, ready to step forward and completely end Lin Yu's life.
But just as the fortune teller took the first step, he stopped.
On the one hand, it was because his intuition felt very "dangerous" - as a "fortune teller", his "intuition" itself is part of his ability, so naturally he couldn't ignore it.
On the other hand...
He didn't hear the phone fall to the ground.
The fortune teller turned around immediately and saw an unexpected figure that was completely beyond his expectations.
Since becoming a fortune teller, he has rarely encountered "unexpected" situations.
But today, he encountered too much.
And all those things combined were not as surprising to him as the scene before him.
The girl in white training clothes caught the falling phone steadily with her toes, then steadily put the phone in front of her and put it in her pocket.
Then a kind smile appeared on her healthy face.
"Greetings, Fortune Teller."
Although he was greeting her in a calm tone, the opponent stepped forward with one foot, pushed one hand forward and hung the other hand behind him, assuming the starting posture of Kaimen Bajiquan.
The fortune teller closed his eyes, his expression slightly painful.
"Why is it you, Grandmaster?"
