Chapter 1232 I'll tell your fortune
"Want me to have my fortune told?"
Upon hearing this, the chess and card player was slightly taken aback.
Even Murong Yan, Yue Fei, and Elizabeth, who were standing to the side, looked completely bewildered.
They all thought that Lin Zhen would ask this unfathomable old monster to deal with that Oda Nobunaga.
But to my surprise, he just wanted me to tell his fortune.
What kind of amazing move is this?
Could it be that the outcome of their eastern expedition could be determined by divination?
"Boy, you're not joking with me, are you?" Chess Buddha looked at Lin Zhen with an extremely strange gaze. "You went to all this trouble to bring me out of that godforsaken Gobi Desert, just so I could tell your fortune?"
“Of course it’s not an ordinary divination.” Lin Zhen smiled and shook his head, his deep eyes sparkling with a dazzling and mysterious light, like stars.
"What I wish to ask you to divine is the secrets of heaven."
"A secret?" The Buddha's expression finally changed slightly.
His cloudy old eyes stared intently at Lin Zhen, as if trying to see right through his soul.
"Boy, do you know what you are talking about?"
His voice became incredibly hoarse and solemn, "Heavenly secrets must not be revealed. Anyone who forcibly tries to pry will surely be punished by Heaven!"
"Even I, an old man, dare not easily touch the thread of cause and effect in the dark!"
"I understand." Lin Zhen nodded, but his face remained calm and composed.
"But I also know that you, senior, are not an ordinary diviner."
"Your mysterious chessboard that can predict the future is not, in essence, divination."
"It is a kind of extreme deduction and calculation based on the entire world, all information and data."
"What you're calculating isn't some vague and ethereal destiny."
"Instead, it's a foregone conclusion, the future!"
Lin Zhen's words were like bolts of chaotic divine thunder containing supreme heavenly might!
Once again, an unprecedentedly monstrous wave was stirred up in the once calm and still heart of the Buddha of Chess and Cards!
He was completely dumbfounded.
He stared blankly at the young man in front of him, who seemed to know everything and be omnipotent.
For the first time, a look of fear appeared on that disheveled old face!
How...how could he have known?!
How could he possibly know the true secret of his own chessboard?!
This is his greatest and only reliance in his thousands of years of life!
It is he, the one who can play the game of life and watch the world go by with ease, his greatest trump card!
Besides himself, there is absolutely no other person in the world who knows this!
But this kid in front of me...
What kind of monster is he?!
“You…” The chess and card Buddha pointed at Lin Zhen, his lips trembling, unable to utter a complete sentence for a long time.
He felt like a pathetic wretch, stripped naked, in front of this kid.
There are no secrets.
"Senior, there's no need to be so nervous." Lin Zhen looked at his astonished expression and comforted him with a smile, "This junior has no interest in your secrets."
"I just wish to borrow your chessboard, which can be used to calculate the future."
"Help us figure out the weakest link in Azuchi Castle's defense system."
"Also, help us calculate Oda Nobunaga's most likely next course of action."
"As long as we can obtain this crucial intelligence in advance."
"That so-called 'most fortified city in the world' is nothing more than a paper lantern riddled with holes in our eyes."
"At that time, we can strike at the heart of the enemy and deliver a fatal blow!"
"You say, is it or isn't it?"
The Buddha remained silent.
He looked at Lin Zhen's handsome face, which was full of absolute confidence.
He glanced again at the stunningly beautiful woman beside him, who, though silent, exuded an aura of imperial dominance stronger than ever before.
for a long time.
He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.
On that disheveled old face, a bitter, resigned smile appeared, more painful than a cry.
"That's it, that's all."
He shook his head, like a pathetic gambler who had lost everything.
"I've been defeated by you, you little monster, in my entire life."
As he spoke, he reluctantly took something out of his tattered robe.
It was an unremarkable, rustic chessboard made of an unknown type of black wood.
Along with a box of warm, smooth chess pieces, also made of an unknown jade in black and white.
However, the moment this chessboard and pieces appeared.
The air in the captain's cabin seemed to freeze at that moment.
An ancient, vast, and terrifying aura, filled with supreme divine might, that defies description in any language.
It spread from that small chessboard.
This allowed Yue Fei and Elizabeth, two iron-blooded and valiant generals who remained unfazed even amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
In that instant, everyone felt a tremor and surrender that came from the depths of their souls!
What they saw was no longer an ordinary chessboard.
Rather, it is a vast Heavenly Dao that is slowly operating and encompasses the entire universe, all stars, and all cause and effect!
Murong Yan's face was also deathly pale.
She gripped Lin Zhen's arm tightly, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with disbelief, shock, and horror.
The Phoenix Descent Dress she wore, which served as her only nightgown, moved even without wind.
On the extremely dark black Suzhou brocade, the towering phoenix embroidered with real gold thread seemed to sense the terrifying pressure from a higher dimension!
His phoenix eyes were wide open, filled with vigilance and hostility!
It's as if they're always ready to engage in a fateful, ultimate showdown with that mysterious chessboard that can turn the world upside down and reverse cause and effect!
"Let's all go back."
Just then, Lin Zhen's voice slowly rang out.
He held Murong Yan tightly in his arms, then waved lightly at Yue Fei and Elizabeth, who were already terrified.
What happens next is not for you to see.
"Don't ask, don't say."
"Just pretend nothing happened."
Yue Fei and Elizabeth, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, scrambled away from the terrifying captain's cabin that had made them feel so suffocated.
Only after they had run a long way did their hearts, which were about to leap out of their chests, finally calm down a little.
“My God…” Elizabeth patted her ample chest, her face still shaken, and said, “What the hell was that old monk and that chessboard?”
"I feel like I was almost crushed to pieces by that force just now!"
Yue Fei remained silent.
He simply glanced back at the tightly closed door of the captain's cabin with a complicated expression.
On that bronze-colored, resolute face, besides lingering fear, there was an unprecedented, immense shock and upheaval!
He knew that today, he had probably witnessed the birth of a myth that mortals could not even imagine!
And their prince, that man who always manages to create all sorts of incredible miracles.
Perhaps, he wasn't even a mortal at all.
Rather, it is a true, supreme deity from the heavens above!
