Chapter 686: Chapter 530: Divination for Lost Items, Two Windmills

But Michael immediately thought of a problem: "The Empire’s masters and the witch of a small street have a huge gap in status, he can’t possibly go."

Sariel laughed: "I have a way; I’ll bring the mermaid to her place to play, have her predict for the mermaid, and then it will cause a sensation. I don’t believe the master can sit still then?"

Michael agreed: "Okay, I’ll wait for the result..."

So Sariel immediately said to the mermaid: "Lord of the Divine Throne, I heard there’s an Astrology Old Lady in the Dark Alley District who’s especially accurate, do you want to go over and play?"

Mary also said: "Indeed, it didn’t seem impressive before, but suddenly she became amazing these past few days."

The mermaid treats everywhere as a playdate: "Alright, let’s go for some divination!"

At this moment, Sariel suddenly felt something was amiss: "Why did this old lady suddenly become so impressive?"

Sela laughed: "I know, you must be thinking this has something to do with Chun, am I right?"

Sariel snorted coldly!

So, the group arrived at Dark Alley Street, and there was already a long queue outside the astrology shop.

Sariel didn’t even need to use privileges, as the queuing citizens politely made way: "It’s the Lord of the Divine Throne!"

"Please, Lord of the Divine Throne."

The group entered the flashy little house, and the plump old lady under a black veil was inexplicably shocked, and she immediately stood up respectfully: "Barara greets the Lord of the Divine Throne, greets Mr. Sage."

The mermaid smiled: "I heard your divination is very accurate, did you predict I would come here?"

The old lady shook her head: "Mortals cannot predict the gods! Therefore, I could not predict it."

The mermaid was surprised: "So does that mean if I ask you for divination, you won’t be able to calculate it?"

The old lady said: "Yes, very sorry."

Sariel also looked stunned: "What if I ask you for divination?"

The old lady said: "You are Mr. Sage; although it’s somewhat difficult, I can still do divination."

Sariel asked: "So what do you divine for these ordinary citizens?"

The old lady laughed: "Mostly about making money, curing illnesses, and finding lost items."

Finding lost items?!

Sariel immediately became interested: "Last night, a Shadow Demon destroyed and took away my Divine Artifact, can you help divine its whereabouts?"

The old lady’s smile immediately became serious; she then lifted the cloth on the Crystal Ball and placed her hands on it, as mist swirled within the Crystal Ball.

After a moment, the old lady said solemnly: "Mr. Sage, this can’t be done for free!"

Sariel just wanted to see: "Name your price!"

The old lady said gravely: "100,000 Mining Coins + 20,000 Privilege Points! If divination fails, I’ll refund the 100,000 Mining Coins."

20,000!!

Sariel was shocked: "Why do you need Privilege Points as well?"

The old lady said: "Because it’s my operating cost! Therefore, even if it fails, it can’t be refunded."

Sariel was amused in the chat group: "Boss, what a con artist! Worse than that master! If I use 20,000 Privilege Points, I could easily inquire at taverns and find out, right?"

Michael said deeply: "However, you might not have her channels."

Sariel was conflicted: "I don’t have many Privilege Points left, I’m reluctant."

The group laughed heartily: "Sariel, you finally know what poverty feels like, right?"

Sariel said irritably: "Underestimating me, huh! Then I’ll spend 20,000, let it be an eye-opener for everyone..."

So Sariel said: "Deal!"

The old lady respectfully took it: "Within a day, Mr. Sage will receive the message."

Sariel laughed: "Good, if you succeed, the Lord of the Divine Throne will also acknowledge your ability; soon, you’ll be the most famous astrologer across the Five Cities."

The mermaid nodded repeatedly: "Mm-hmm!"

The old lady respectfully said: "I will certainly work hard and do well; I will never let the Lord of the Divine Throne and Mr. Sage down."

After the business ended, Sariel felt quite pained: "Boss, it’s up to you now."

"Alright!"

So Michael asked Master Hubble: "Master, just now news came from Black Iron City, Silver Sage accompanied the Guardian God mermaid to Dark Alley District to find that Barara for divining the lost Divine Artifact..."

Hubble was suddenly taken aback: "What Divine Artifact?"

"Eye of Omniscience!"

Hubble’s expression became serious: "A Divine Artifact of this level, I’m not confident in predicting the lost item!"

Michael laughed: "Anyway, the results come out in a day; let’s wait for a day."

Hubble said deeply: "Very well..."

Sela laughed heartily: "Alright, this old lady must succeed; with Hubble’s personality of seeking knowledge everywhere, he’ll surely come to challenge!"

Michael coldly snorted: "Then let’s wait for a good show."

...

Unnoticed, it turned 5 a.m.

Chun spent the whole night concentrating on researching the structure of the windmill. Having only the concept drawing online and no blueprint, it was entirely self-designed, leading to many problems, with Chun constantly making corrections.

Finally, as the windmill successfully drove the soybean press, a series of notifications appeared on the screen:

——System Notification: Congratulations! Your Grandmaster-level Module Skill successfully combined with Grandmaster-level Construction Technique, Master-level Mechanician, and Master-level Treasure Identification Technique, to successfully build the "Golden Windmill Bean Oil Mill". You’ve obtained the mechanical construction blueprint, and your related skill proficiency has greatly increased. You’ve acquired the Special Skill: Additional 100% grinding efficiency, increased 50% grinding quality, increased 50% mechanical durability.

...

Success!

Aileen and the dancing girls cheered: "Dear (Master), you’re incredible!"

Chun felt immeasurable satisfaction, his energy undiminished: "With the blueprint, building another one will be much easier. I still want to build another windmill, specifically for pressing sugarcane, and take the opportunity to further hone my skills."

Speaking of a blueprint, it was actually an album, with all kinds of components and creations contained within.

Aileen laughed: "Alright, then we will immediately prepare the gold for you, dear!"

Chun took a moment to rest, watching the stream, himself still parading. The more the Ten Lords waste my time this way, the more I secretly develop.

Then he looked at the Black Iron City streaming and found there were video compilations of the Ten Lords’ style. He then discovered they went with Mary and the mermaid to Dark Alley District to find the astrology old lady, with a long line of citizens queued outside the astrology shop, and an advertisement out front saying "Free Divination of Daily Fate."

Could it be... after the last battle dispelled the old lady’s deep Dream Realm curse demon, her powers improved? Then the Ten Lords come digging at my foundation?

But as long as the mermaid oversees, let them dig!

After resting for ten minutes, Aileen and the dancing girls prepared the gold: "Dear, the materials are ready! Usable bricks from the ruins are also prepared."

Then let’s begin!

Sure enough, with a blueprint, Chun’s progress was much faster; within just an hour, the mechanical build, fan blade creation, windmill construction were all in place and successful!

——System Notification: Congratulations... your related skill proficiency has slightly increased.

Uh... no proficiency left?

Well, the important thing is both windmills were built.

Chun checked the stream again; in the game, it was already dark.

I refuse to believe they would parade me even when it’s dark; aren’t they afraid I’ll escape?
