Chapter 602: Signs of the Stars

Messistar's hands trembled, but now was not the time to speak. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"When the Red Moon falls, the world will be plunged into a catastrophe from which it will never recover. 」

Naturally, he knew the significance of this prophecy.

After taking a deep breath, the chief astrologer cautiously raised his head, fearing that he would lose this hard-won star because of his superfluous movements.

Even though he could find the position again with his eyes closed.

"Recorded, at the beginning of summer, in the third eastern region, between the six stars and the blazing stars. ”

"Yes," Meteor fumbled with the notebook, then drew a circle in the corresponding position, which meant that there was an extra star on the chart, "What about the name?"

"Not for now. ”

"Teacher?" was slightly stunned.

"Do as I say, and don't remember my name yet. "Gather all the Masters on the Stargazing Platform and let the apprentices leave...... Immediately!"

His last voice was almost a low roar.

"I'll do it right away," Meteor was startled, and ran off to the other astrologers.

May the gods of heaven bless us, thought to the diffuse star.

In a few moments, all the Bachelors gathered around the Chief Astrologer.

From his serious expression, everyone seemed to realize something—since Roland had visited the Astrology Society, rumors of the Extinction Star had ceased to be a secret among astrologers. The young king even suggested that the chief should give the gold tablets of the ancestral inheritance to all the scholars for their purpose, and to give them a sense of duty and honor. I don't know if it's an illusion, but Diffuse Star always felt that His Majesty's tone when he mentioned the end of the world was a little disapproving.

"Chief, don't you ......?"

He nodded, "I found a red star." ”

This made everyone gasp.

"But I don't know if it's a spot of light, or if it's an illusion......," said the diffuse star, waving his hand, "This phenomenon is very common in stargazing, so ......"

"So it's up to us to do the review. Void Star answered.

"That's right," he nodded, "Let's start with you." ”

......

Half an hour later, all eight astrologers had seen it - and to rule out equipment problems, they had replaced their telescopes twice, as well as an old-fashioned stargazer.

Except for the latter, which was indeed unable to observe the red star, no matter which astronomical telescope was used, everyone clearly saw the faint star.

One person may be dazzled or delusional, but it is impossible for all eight of them to be like this.

Among them, the Rose Star Bachelor, who has the best eyesight, also claims to have seen the outline of the stars.

The existence of the Red Star has been confirmed.

Then the astrological observatory fell into a strange silence.

The Diffuse Star doesn't know if this is a blessing or a punishment from the gods, but since they joined the association, all their efforts have been for this day, in order to find this star of destruction that heralds misfortune and disaster. But when he actually found it, he suddenly felt a wave of panic in his heart.

Their efforts paid off, foreknowledge of catastrophe could save the lives of tens of thousands of people, and from this moment on, the Astrology Society would be completely above the Alchemy Society, a result that could not even be measured by the Golden Dragon, but their warnings were in a sense tantamount to the most vicious curse.

Predicting the end of the world would be a heavy responsibility for astrologers.

"What are we going to do?" someone asked after a long time.

"It stands to reason that the matter should be reported to the king. ”

"You mean Roland Wimbledon? will he believe it?"

"He doesn't even believe in the stars. ”

"No, I'm saying he probably wouldn't believe the prophecy about the Extinction. ”

"I'll have to try it, after all, he gave these instruments to the astrological platform, and it's impossible to scoff at our words. ”

"Who knows, he was notoriously stubborn when he was in the royal capital. ”

"If he had been stubborn, he wouldn't have left us in the first place!"

"That's enough," Diffuse Star raised his hand to interrupt everyone's discussion, "Don't reveal the news of the red star for now, let's observe for a few more days." ”

He looked around at everyone gathered around him, "It's not enough to know that it exists, I need to know its trajectory, how fast it travels, and how soon it may come to the world." The more clues we gather, the more convincing our prophecies will be, understand?"

"As you wish, Lord Chancellor. Everyone bowed in unison.

......

After a week of observation, the diffuse star felt that the star was becoming more and more incredible.

It won't move.

All the stars are in motion, sometimes they appear on the horizon, then slowly rise into the air, and some disappear after midnight, and this change shows a regularity, otherwise there is no trajectory.

But the Star of Destruction showed no signs of moving.

Seven days tilt the six stars a little - when autumn comes, it will gradually change from six horizontal lines to six vertical lines, so that the red stars are moving away from the center of the two constellations.

It is in this contrast that the diffuse star realizes that it has not changed, as if it were not a star, but a fixed background in the night.

Since it can't move, it can't get close to the Four Kingdoms.

According to the prophecy, the star of destruction must be born, that is, anyone can directly observe it with the naked eye, for the catastrophe to come. If the inscription on the gold plate is correct, does that mean that the end will never come?

The second point is that its light is changing.

This conclusion comes from the Rose Master, whose record indicates that the stars are getting brighter and brighter.

At first, she was the only one who mentioned this, but the diffuse star didn't care, after all, the star is a very stable thing, unlike the moon, which changes shape and luster all the time. But on the seventh day, the Celestial Masters, who had returned from their illness, made the same opinion, and the fact that the two of them were the two most eyesighted astrologers in the association made him take it seriously.

After convening everyone to discuss it that night, the female bachelor's whim made everyone present shudder.

"If coming into the world means that all the people of the kingdom can see it, is there such a possibility that even if the star of destruction does not move, the brighter and brighter light will eventually make it surpass the morning star and become a torch hanging high in the air, so that everyone can see it?"

These words exploded like thunder in the heart of the diffuse star.

People just don't know how to recognize the constellations, but that doesn't mean they can't see the stars.

Some of the stars are almost as bright as the Quarter Moon, and they can always be seen on a clear night.

What if that star had a unique and striking color?

The answer is no doubt.

"I will write to Your Majesty Roland now," said the chief astrologer, in a cold sweat, "and I hope it will not be too late." ”
