The old man led Alison out of the city hall and took a special carriage to the palace, now called the Consul's Residence.

"Take off the mask!"

Heng Ax, the guard who was guarding the door when he entered, warned.

"Go away." Alison said politely.

"Bold!" The guards were furious when they heard this, and they all raised their axes to kill her on the spot, but Alison remained motionless.

Seeing that the tomahawk was about to hit Alison's face, the old man behind him snorted fiercely, "Stop!"

The battle ax stopped after hearing the sound, and several guards returned to their positions instantly. The old man glanced at Alison, "Does your identity have to be hidden?"

"Yes." Alison looked at the old man and nodded, "But I can guarantee that I'm just here to make money, and I definitely don't have any bad intentions."

"That's it." The old man frowned, and then looked at the guards, "Let her in. You all know these days that those who can do divination are some shady guys."

"Of course we won't doubt the people you brought." The guards nodded.

"Then what were you doing just now?" The corners of Alison's mouth twitched behind the mask. From the village to the capital, everyone had to listen to what they said.

The old man thanked the guards and led Alison directly into the Executive Yuan. After entering the second city wall, he stopped and saw that the place was full of people, at least more than a hundred people.

They have wizards, necromancers, astrologers, and even invisible alien monks. It is obvious that she is not the only one who has been recruited.

"You wait here, I'll go report." The old man said, and then walked towards the place where officials gathered in front.

Alison looked from behind to the front and vaguely noticed that the people standing there were all knights and a very few magicians. Obviously they could be officials here and were professionals themselves. After all, they worked in important positions in the kingdom and could not change people every day.

.

"Your Majesty Duke, I found a fortune teller, she."

The old man told the Duke who was sitting in the first place all the information he knew about Alison. The Duke nodded slightly after hearing this, and then looked at the old man, "They have been very honest recently. Is there any need to participate in this matter?"

"I haven't said it, but according to the source, it seems that the reason is just that the fortune teller wants to make money." The old man smiled bitterly, "In addition, the organization also wants to sell well."

"So she is very capable?"

"According to my analysis, yes." The old man nodded.

"Yes." The Duke nodded slightly when he heard this, and then waved his arm, "Let the test begin."

Then everyone saw the guards bringing a box.

"Quiet! Now I want to test your abilities first. Please predict what is in this box!" The guard glanced at the diviners and prophets below and shouted loudly, "If you guess ten items correctly, you will be promoted directly. If you guess five items correctly, you will be promoted directly.

The pieces will advance to the next round. If you guess three pieces correctly, you will be eliminated and kicked out of the mansion. If you guess three pieces or less, you will be killed!"

"What? How could such a thing happen!"

"If your divination is wrong, you will kill someone. How can there be such a reason?"

"You are so overbearing. No one told me this when I came here!"

"I quit, I want to go home!"

The crowd immediately became excited when they heard the guard's words. Everyone was just trying to make a living, saying some nice words to make the big shot happy, making prophecies or something like that. They are not the guides of destiny.

A group of masters who were frightened by the consequences of failure immediately ran back. However, when they were about to run out, the city wall gate was suddenly closed, and then everyone heard various screams coming from the city gate hole.

"ah!"

"ah!!!"

The screams stopped almost instantly, and then with a creak, the gate of the second city wall opened, and a group of servants pulled a cart and began to throw corpses up.

This scene made the observing masters feel a little chilly.

"6768, fortunately there are 68 masters present." After the guard counted the number of people, he waved his hand, and a servant immediately sent them pens and paper.

"Don't worry, everyone, we are just expelling some liars so that there will be fewer people who ruin the reputation of future prophets and diviners."

The guard looked at the masters below who had all distributed the items, "If you feel the distance is too far, you can apply and you can do divination at close range with the escort."

The guard said, took out an hourglass, put it upside down on the cabinet, and glanced at the people below, "We can start now."

After the guard finished speaking, a phantom flashed next to the cabinet, twisting and dissipating in the white light. This scene shocked everyone, and at the same time, a wizard fell directly to the ground and died suddenly.

"I forgot to remind you. Although we want to know what's in the cabinet, we need divination methods instead of sending ghosts like this." The guard hummed, "Hurry up, time is running out."

The masters below raised their eyebrows upon hearing this, and then started using their respective abilities.

Among them, there were those who prayed silently and took out astral rods, and there were also those who drew arrays on the spot to make the devil appear. Later, there were tarot cards, crystal balls, and everything else, and there were even those who peeked at the answers next door.

Time passed quickly, and the sand in the hourglass was about to drain away. Several wizards who could not bear the pressure immediately shouted, "I have an opinion!"

"Speak." the guard shouted.

"Divination and precognition are about quietness, environment, and no interference. With so many people present, I can't do the divination!" an old man shouted.

"Understood, we are not unreasonable, there are needs like this." The guard nodded, and then looked at the people below, "Which of you is in the same situation?"

So a dozen more people raised their hands. Seeing this, the guard led him to a room next door.

At this time, a group of masters had finished their divination, and they all looked at the person who was being led away and whispered.

"This old man is not a saint. He has no magic and has not been mutated. He is just an ordinary citizen. He is just a cheating character."

"The other ones are not that good either. Even if the scammers are not so disturbed, their accuracy is not very high."

"How many will come back after we divine it?"

"I'm not interested. I still have to keep my spirituality and wait for the second round."

While the masters were discussing, they heard several screams coming from the room. After a while, they saw the guard leading the old man out, leaving no one behind him.

"I really underestimated the liar's courage and ability to keep his composure." The guard walked back with bloody footprints and looked at everyone, "Don't move, everyone. I will start checking the results."

The guard said and left the field in person. He saw that most of the predicted ones were ten, and the remaining seven, eight, five, six had ten people, and there were more than twenty people below three, and even those

They were also the ones who picked the three out of ten, until he walked to the next row, next to Alison, and looked at the answers in her notebook, and couldn't help but be slightly startled.

"You wrote this wrong. It's a peach, not a peach stone. Please erase it and rewrite it quickly." The guard looked at Alison and said in surprise. He wanted to see Alison's level, but because of the mask, he couldn't see it at all.

"Come with me." He couldn't remember which one it was, but the guard still waved his hand and said, then reached out and ordered twenty-two more people, "These are all chopped down."

Upon hearing this, the guards immediately stepped forward, picked up their swords, and slashed at him.

"Puff puff puff~"

"Ah, no!"

"Bang~"

"Please give me another chance!" Seeing the tragic death of a large number of his colleagues, an astrologer with a low score immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying in panic, "Prediction is subtle, I only follow the general trend."

"Poof!" With one stab, the panic on the astrologer's face solidified on the spot.

Alison, who had been promoted directly, had already walked forward with her guards and stood with other masters who had perfect scores.

"Your Excellency, thirty-eight people, one and one nine points." The guard frowned when he saw that Alison did not change.

"Yes." The Duke nodded after hearing this. He put away their answers and looked at them for a while, then looked at the guard, "We are the only two who know what is in this box. Open the box."

"Ah, the key is with you." The guard was surprised.

"With a sword," said the Duke.

The guard frowned slightly when he heard this, and then cut off the lock with a sword.

"It's open, Your Majesty the Duke." The guard saluted.

"Well, take a look at what's inside." The Duke ordered. After hearing this, the guard opened the wooden box and saw the same things inside, apples, cabbage, and peaches. Where were the peaches? Why was there only the peach core left?

The guard broke into cold sweat when he saw that scene. The next second he threw down his sword, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, while the expressions of the masters changed drastically when they saw this scene.

"Do you want them to advance directly? Who asked you to do it?" The Duke asked in a deep voice. Although the voice was not loud, it sounded like a roar of tigers in everyone's ears. In an instant, all the masters retreated.

, the ones with low strength even fell to the ground.

"Who?" asked the Duke again.

"Yes, eldest son." The guard whose head hit the ground said tremblingly.

Just when the guard was scared to death, Alison walked to the cabinet and checked the test object.

She shook the parchment in her hand and looked at the Duke, "I get full marks for this."

"Hey, shut up!" the old man who brought Alison over shouted, "I'm afraid today's test won't work, so you can't go for divination."
