Black... In Fortune, this means that you will encounter Calamity related to your own death... The color is not rich enough, which means that this Calamity may only bring death but is not inevitable, or is there some hope of solving it? Well, look at other people's pictures in the future, maybe you can find the rich color Black, that may mean that as long as the corresponding tributary is selected, the dead Destiny will be Predestination... Lumian maintained its own observations of Franca and "Hella" Destiny, and made corresponding guesses.

Because the tributaries are constantly at Change, Lumian cannot grasp the target Future Destiny very clearly. He can only glimpse one or two of them. The black "marks" allow him to confirm the key points very intuitively.

This is something that the Mysticism knowledge that comes with the power of "Fate Hunter" has not mentioned. Lumian deeply suspects that after "observation Fortune" was sublimated to "observation Destiny", it can be blended with "Weakness Detection" of "Reaper" to form this unique ability:

Just like discovering the weakness of the target's body and soul, discovering the weakness of the opponent's Destiny level, which is the tributary leading to death!

As I speculated before, "Hunter" and "Fate" Pathway's two abilities that also use eyes to observe have merged... Lumian took advantage of the situation and looked at "Hella" "River of Destiny with Franca, found that I could grasp their Past and the current part Fragment of Destiny, just like when I used "Fallen Mercury" to hunt others Destiny.

The difference from that time is that now you can directly see it without extending your spirituality. With the help of corresponding abilities, you can touch the Illusory Long River that glows with Mercury-Colored waves and is made up of complex symbols.

In other words, you can "see" part of the target's Destiny without him noticing.

Of course, compared to touching the corresponding River of Destiny through abilities, seeing with the eyes is obviously limited - most of the life scenes in the Mercury-Colored river are very blurry in this case, and the closer they are to the present, the clearer they appear. Similarly, the less high-level things are involved, the clearer they become.

In this matter, the life fragments of Franca and "Hella" form a sharp and powerful contrast:

"Hella" Past and the current fragment highlighted in the Mercury-Colored wave of River of Destiny, part of it seems to be shrouded in fog, and part of it seems to be hidden in Evernight. It is not clear at all. Only a few can peep, and Franca is much clearer, especially in the past week or two. Except for the fragments involving "Night Kingdom", "Judgement" Lady, "Black Witch" and other High Sequence, Lumian can be seen.

During the experimental observation, Lumian was suddenly stunned.

After two or three seconds, he looked away uncomfortably.

"What's wrong?" Franca asked with curiosity and concern, "If you don't want to tell me the specific ability, you don't have to tell me."

Only then did she realize that she had been too eager and actually asked directly about "Fate Hunter"'s situation and possible blending ability in front of "Hella" and "Lady".

Lumian swallowed his saliva unconsciously, calmed himself down, looked at "Hella" and said, "There is nothing that cannot be said.

"I can no longer just observe Fortune, I can directly see your corresponding River of Destiny, from the main trunk to the tributaries, but most of them are unclear. Only when you really use the ability of Hunt Destiny can you clearly sense it, and that has a time limit.

"Well, among the River of Destiny tributaries I saw, one should lead to death..."

Lumian briefly explained his initial speculation, and the color of Eyes gradually returned to normal.

"Since it's not Certain Death, it should be called Death Calamity." Franca's attention was drawn to the symbolic meaning of "black".

Death Calamity? Lumian and "Hella" both looked at Franca, waiting for her explanation.

Franca laughed slightly awkwardly:

"To put it simply, if Calamity, a crisis or event that can bring death is handled well, it is possible to survive it alive."

That's it... Lumian thought for a moment and said, "Then this ability is called 'Eye of Calamity', and you can see the eyes of death Calamity."

He doesn't care too much about the name of the book. The most important thing is that it is useful and easy to use.

Lumian then digested the Mysticism knowledge that followed the power of "Fate Hunter" and entered his body:

The core of "Fate Hunter" is actually Fate Hunting, but it is divided into three abilities.

The first ability is "Hunt Destiny". By touching the target's River of Destiny, you can directly "hunt" the desired section of Destiny.

This is somewhat different from the ability of "Fallen Mercury". You can "hunt" the target's Destiny without killing it, but this takes a certain amount of time. The lighter the corresponding Destiny, the faster it will be completed, and the heavier the Library, the slower it will be.

--The importance of Fragment of Destiny refers to the importance of Destiny to the overall target.

Of course, Lumian can also "hunt" his Fragment of Destiny by killing the target, and since the entire target Destiny is fixed at this point, there will be no other Change, so the time required to complete the "hunt" is very short.

And as "Fate Hunter", Lumian can hold two Fragment of Destiny Accumulation on itself longer than one of "Fallen Mercury".

--Normally there are three, but Lumian has neither become Dancer nor Acting Mendicant Friar, and has not even signed up the number of special Contract. In other words, when he was in the first three stages of the "Fate" field, he almost never moved closer to the giver of power in daily life, and his integration with power was poor.

If he hadn't implemented the core spirit of "Ascetic" well, there might only be one Fragment of Destiny that could be stored at present.

The second ability is "Exchange Destiny", which uses Accumulation to exchange a section of Destiny on the target for a section of Destiny.

It is best to match the weight of Fragment of Destiny, light to light, heavy to heavy, otherwise the exchange speed will be very slow, maybe five or six minutes.

The light-heavy matching is on the one hand, and the importance of Fragment of Destiny itself is on the other hand, which will also significantly affect the speed of exchange, but in general, it is faster than directly "hunting" the corresponding Destiny - except for the "hunting" that kills the Hunting target.

Whether it is "Hunt Destiny" or "Exchange Destiny", there is currently a restriction that the target cannot be attacked again before completion.

At this point, it is not as convenient and flexible as "Fallen Mercury".

The third ability is "Push Destiny", which means spending a lot of spiritual energy to directly push the target Future to develop into a certain tributary.

This ability was not originally like this. It was more about influencing the Destiny development of the target Future through Ritual, Curse, etc., but after being integrated with the characteristics of "Reaper", it became a direct promotion.

This paired with "Eye of Calamity" allowed Lumian to see some possibilities.

Of course, he evaluated it and felt that with his dual spirituality of "Reaper" and "Fate Hunter", he could only push it twice at present.

"The core capabilities of 'Fate Hunter' are the deepening and simplification of 'Fortune Transfer'..." Lumian starts with the overall assessment.

After becoming "Fate Hunter", the upper limit of Contract he can endure as "Contracted One" has reached twelve, and the endurance ability brought by "Ascetic" has also been greatly enhanced.

This makes Lumian consider signing two or three more Contract Ability to enrich his Combat Style and increase his corresponding trump cards.

But he won't really sign twelve, not even ten, because that will make the intensity and type of negative effects exceed "Ascetic"'s ability to endure. Lumian doesn't want to become Parish Priest Guillaume·Béné, those shoddy Beyonder whose weaknesses are easy to be caught and whose tendency to act is guessed.

Another big Change of "Ascetic" is that "Accumulation" has been upgraded to the point where Accumulation can be imported from Fragment of Destiny, and it has truly become an important part of "Fate Hunter".

"Animal Transformation" and other Ritual can be more simplified. For example, Ritual must be used before Lumian. Only by wrapping the target with Sheepskin can the target be turned into a sheep by saying Incantation. Now, the prerequisite can be achieved by covering the target with Sheepskin, which is more symbolic.

The flexibility of "Dancer" has also been greatly improved. Lumian can now make all kinds of shocking and incredible movements. If you only see the corresponding projection, Ordinary Person will think that it is Monster.

In addition, Lumian's spirituality has increased significantly. The simplest measure is that he can use "Spirit World Traversal" sixteen or seventeen times.

But whether it is "Fate Hunter" or "Reaper", the improvement to his physical strength is quite limited.

After confirming his own changes, Lumian thanked "Hella" Lady, asked about the time of the next "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society" gathering, and returned to the real world with Franca.

After returning the "The Fool" Gold Coin to Jenna, Lumian briefly mentioned the ability of "Fate Hunter" and finally said, "Now that I have the ability to directly see part of Fragment of Destiny, I will wait until I observe Moran Avni up close before deciding on a specific plan."

"Okay." Franca fully supports any measures that can reduce risks.

Lumian immediately stood up and said to Franca and Jenna: "Then I'll leave first. During this time, remember to help me ask on your Occult Gathering if there is any Potion Formula of 'Harvest Sacrifice Priest' and the corresponding extraordinary materials."

"No problem." After Franca sent Lumian away, he turned around and said to Jenna doubtfully, "Why is he a little weird? Don't you usually have to make people angry and make jokes before leaving?"

Jenna also felt that this was not normal and fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, her expression was slightly Change.

Jenna lowered his head, looked at the book in his hand, and said thoughtfully, "Maybe I just got Gift Power, and my condition is not very stable, so I need to go back and rest quickly."

"Yes." Franca was immediately relieved.

She didn't think too much, and she didn't bother to think too much. How wonderful the night was, she couldn't waste it on such unimportant things.

Boulevard District, Champs Grand Hotel except Rose Conference Hall.

Many reporters stood in front of Hotel's most iconic indoor Golden fountain, waiting for Minister of Ministry of Industry Moran Avni, who had completed cooperation negotiations with the Kingdom of Loen delegation, to come out.

Lumian put on the long-prepared black woolen coat and put on Medium-Height Silk Top Hat. He was holding a rented new black and white camera without a stand in his hand. With an ordinary appearance like a passerby, he mingled with these people as a fake reporter.
