Chapter 533: God's Throne Collection Formula, an Important Lesson for Astrologers

It is said that the most painful thing for ordinary men is to go shopping and drink tea with chattering women.

Sariel's real status is actually something that cannot be realized, and there is no need to go shopping. Now, I have realized it.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Sariel felt every second was like an age.

Finally, after the mermaid and Mary had tasted all the snacks, they called the boss.

Sariel was cheered up and looked forward to it. Could it be that she really had saved another tea artist and wanted to give him a recipe?

The boss said respectfully: "Master Shenzuo, please give us your valuable suggestions for our store."

The mermaid coughed dryly. "Well, could you give me your store's recipe so I can study and improve it?"

The boss was confused!

Sariel was even more confused: "She actually asked the boss for the recipe?"

The chatterbox laughed in surprise: "Is her bread recipe still the same?"

Sariel didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "It's very likely, isn't it?"

Anyway, since the mermaid had spoken, Sariel had to chime in: "Boss, with the improvement and approval of the Lord of the Throne, your store's business will be ten times greater than before!"

The shop owner immediately understood: "It is an honor for our shop to be respected by the Lord of the Gods."

The mermaid laughed heartily after obtaining the recipe. "I heard that tobacco shops are just as profitable as tea shops?"

Sariel was shocked again. Did she even want the cigarette formula? But then he understood. She had obviously benefited from the profit from the bread formula. So this was a mermaid, ambitious! But she clearly didn't understand the situation.

Mary explained, "Master Shenzuo, tobacco shops don't produce cigarettes. They only sell processed finished cigarettes. There are no tobacco factories in Black Iron City either."

The mermaid was quite disappointed: "Ah, there is no recipe..."

The teahouse owner became excited: "Master Shenzuo, I do know a few old men who can make loose local cigarettes. Although they are far inferior to the packaged cigarettes sold, they are cheap and have some characteristics, which are very suitable for the poor."

The mermaid was happy: "Okay, boss, please introduce them to me!"

The teahouse owner was excited: "I'll go find it right away!"

Seeing the mermaid's ambition, Sariel's heart moved: "Boss, wait a minute!"

The boss asked, "What instructions does the wise master have?"

Sariel, however, said to the mermaid, "Lord God, wine is also very profitable!"

Mary said, "There's no winery in Black Iron City."

Sariel laughed and said, "But rum is very simple. Even pirates can make it with simple equipment and sugarcane. Boss, do you know anyone who can make rum?"

The mermaid was amused: "Sugar cane?"

The boss smiled and said, "I really know him. That old man really was a pirate in the past. I'll go and call him right away! Master Shenzuo, continue drinking your tea..."

The mermaid laughed and said, "Okay, Boss, please walk slowly. There's no rush!"

The boss was so happy that he didn't even turn his head: "Your Majesty's time is as precious as gold..."

Sariel was suddenly enlightened by this sentence! He was right. He was impatient to accompany her shopping. This was actually the superficiality of a self-righteous man!
Since valuable things like cigarettes, alcohol and tea are involved, just keep going!

Sariel said, "Lord God, the medicine is also valuable!"

Gabriel in the chat group immediately became anxious: "Sariel, you are stealing my business! If you steal it from those nobles, it will probably be detrimental to the development of mermaids!"

Sariel smiled and said, "Then you must have some hard-to-sell medicines?"

At this moment, the mermaid perked up: "I know how to make anti-epidemic medicine! It was my medicine that wiped out the plague in Silver City last time."

Salih Khan said, "This is possible as an emergency measure, but it's very difficult to build a brand. It will also affect the interests of some noble chambers of commerce that also sell epidemic prevention drugs. If they get angry, the throne will lose their faith."

The mermaid snorted, "Then I'll cure the harpy's dysentery!"

Sariel also felt that it was very troublesome: "Lord Shenzuo, harpies are very rare. We may not be able to sell this kind of medicine."

Raphael smiled and said, "My Blue Ash Village is used to test drugs for pneumoconiosis. This incident happened because of this drug, but it's really hard to sell. The rich don't have this disease, and the poor can't afford it. Why not let the mermaid try? If her research is successful, she will be loved by miners all over the world, and her faith will increase dramatically. At the same time, she will offend the mastermind of this incident and lure him out!"

Sariel was shocked, but said angrily: "You are putting my mermaid baby at risk!"

Gabriel smiled and said, "I think what Raphael said makes sense. It's completely feasible! After all, the mermaid is the guardian of the two cities. She's strong enough to handle the risks!"

Sariel became excited: "What do you think, Boss?"

Michael smiled bitterly. "Even the most talented NPC I've ever seen is that clown Heiwa, but he can only learn math, not astrology. You want a mermaid to improve tea, tobacco, alcohol, and medicine at the same time. Even if she's a god, I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to handle it, right?"

Gabriel laughed and said, "We don't know the limits of God's intelligence. Perhaps only by training her can she fight against the Emperor's intelligence?"

Michael thought for a moment and said, "We can try! But seeing as she's playful, don't force it."

"understand!"

Sariel said to the mermaid, "Lord God, we can develop medicine to treat pneumoconiosis!"

The mermaid was startled and stared at Sariel feeling strange.

The mermaid asked, "What kind of disease is this?"

"It's a miner's disease..."

The mermaid asked again, "But I haven't heard anyone coughing in Silver City and Black Iron City?"

"Because the mines in the main city have been mined for a hundred years, the dust concentration is not as high as it used to be. However, it is more common in some remote villages and towns."

The mermaid asked in surprise, "Which remote town?"

Sariel felt a little strange. Why would a playful girl like her ask so many detailed questions?

But he still answered seriously: "For example, the Blue Ash Village in Gem City..."

The mermaid finally understood. "I see. Although there's no ready-made recipe, it involves the faith of miners around the world. I will try my best!"

Mary praised: "Lord God is wise!"

Sariel was even more relieved and decided to give her a magical artifact as an apology based on her sincere attitude.

As he was talking, the tea shop owner led a few old men in and said, "Everyone, come quickly, the Lord of the Gods wants to see you!"

The old men bowed down and said, "Greetings, Lord God!"

The mermaid was delighted: "Great, great, the recipe..." The old men were excited: "We are embarrassed to call our craftsmanship a recipe. It is our honor that the Lord of the Gods has taken a liking to it!"

The formula was quickly agreed upon, and Sariel was extremely relieved.

The next part of the day was spent shopping with the mermaid. But the mermaid seemed to be preoccupied with playing again, never mentioning the formula again. It seemed her limit was developing four formulas.

Sariel was relieved and chatted in the chat group: "Gabriel, how is the situation over there?"

Gabriel smiled and said, "Not bad. I specifically asked the professor to arrange a few patients for her, and she was able to cure them all. Her method is quite different from the one used in the academy. She's a talent!"

Xila was happy: "I must focus on training tomorrow!"

Gabriel chuckled: "Tomorrow? Classes will continue in the evening!"

Xila asked again, "Where's the tartare curry?"

Gabriel said, "He contacted Master Crow on the outskirts of the city, and then he moved around the city. I don't know what he's doing."

Xila smiled. "Tata should have received this quest from the Holy Mother of the Black Iron Church. I want to know what the relationship is between the Holy Mother and this Master Crow."

Gabriel said, "Of course they are all colleagues from the Animal Protection Association. The Virgin Mary triggered the stray dog ​​mission in Tata War God. They are all related to animals."

Xila was amused: "So Master Crow has a lover in Black Iron City. That gives us another chance to win him over."

Gabriel said angrily: "What lover? It has nothing to do with me!"

Xila laughed and said, "As long as I spread the news everywhere in the tavern, it will be the same!"

Michael smiled and said, "I have good news for you all. My astrology skills have reached a high level while I'm busy!"

Everyone cheered: "Boss, we need red envelopes to celebrate!"

Michael smiled and said, "No problem! I'll go to the observatory right away and ask Hubble to guide me in predicting the weather."

……

Michael came to the observatory and saw Master Hubble still looking at the void through the telescope.

"Master, I have advanced astrology skills and I am here to ask you a question."

Hubble was amazed. "As expected of a sage, you've reached this level in such a short time. Excellent! Please ask."

Michael asked, "Master, if it were you, how many days in advance could you predict the weather?"

Michael's motivation for studying was the torrential rain that disrupted the attack on the southern canyon village. Although his initial reaction was based on Dachun's astrological predictions, Dachun had already been imprisoned for over ten days, and there was no way he could have predicted what would happen ten days later.

Hubble thought for a moment and said, "Three days, 3 percent accuracy! Anything beyond three days is just an estimate, and anything beyond seven days is completely unpredictable."

3 days is very reasonable!
Michael recalled that the Royal Family team had indeed begun repairing the dam two days before the rainstorm, using the excuse of treasure hunting as a cover. However, the sudden downpour coincided with the monster attack on the village. This wasn't simply a prediction, it was a summoning of the storm!
Michael's most likely candidate at the time was Biliana, a siren who supposedly possessed the power to summon wind and rain. However, mermaids, even as guardians, didn't possess this ability, and Biliana wasn't even the primary siren, so it was unlikely she could reach that level.

When I thought about the fact that the villagers all had Dachun-like oil paint on their faces, and that Bilianna could dance, I made a comprehensive analysis: it was a primitive witchcraft rain-making ceremony or something like that, and it might also contain astrological event prediction skills. They predicted that monsters would attack the village, so they prepared two days in advance.

In short, this is all analysis. Michael now wants to ask a clear question: "Can weather prediction directly turn prophecies into reality and directly achieve the effect of summoning rain?"

Hubble said seriously, "Good question! The answer is yes! But it's not something you can achieve with your current level of skill. You need to keep working hard."

Michael was shocked! Although "self-fulfilling prophecies" can occur in market behavior, changing objective laws... could this be God?
Hubble continued, "Also, there may be another storm in the void in two days. Notify your expedition team to prepare for evasion."

Michael was shocked: "They are already far away from the asteroid belt. How can we avoid them?"

Hubble was puzzled: "Perhaps there is no storm in the area where they are?"

Michael suddenly had an idea: "Master, you just said that you can make predictions come true, so can you do the opposite and prevent the predicted events from happening?"

Hubble said seriously again, "That's not the other way around! Do you know the purpose of prophecy and divination? It's to predict disasters so that they won't happen."

Michael was genuinely shocked: "So, Master, can you prevent this storm from happening?"

Hubble took a deep breath and said, "I need 1 privilege points!"

Michael was stunned: "This?"

Hubble sighed, "This is nothing short of a miracle. It must have taken some effort."

Michael was incredulous: "Then can I learn it?"

Hubble said solemnly, "You can definitely learn it. Moreover, I guarantee that this is the most important lesson you will ever learn in astrology."

Michael really wanted to see it and was looking forward to it: "Master, please accept it!"

Hubble accepted it solemnly and said, "Then go ahead and get busy. I'll wait for news in two days."

This?
"Okay, I'll come back then."

After leaving the observatory, Michael felt more and more that something was amiss, so he posted the screen recording in the chat group: "What do you think? Is this astrologer really that powerful?"

Sariel was stunned: "Boss, although astrology is not a skill designed in the original version, no matter how it is developed, it shouldn't be to this extent, right?"

Xila was stunned for a long moment. "Boss, if a street charlatan said something like that to me, I'd suspect he was a liar. Is it possible that there wasn't any Void Storm two days later, and he deliberately said there was... so two days later, he'd naturally be right?"

Ah!! Such a low-level deception! The dignified Chief Astrologer of the Empire——

Michael couldn't believe it and immediately hurried back to the observatory, where he saw the old man shaking his hips and humming a song with a smug look on his face!

"Grandmaster!"

Hubble smiled and said, "You've come just in time! I've successfully avoided the storm that's coming in two days."

Michael found it hard to accept that the master he trusted so much could be so low-level: "Is there no storm at all?"

Hubble became serious again. "It seems you've learned the most important lesson. But there's a prerequisite: you can really predict that there will be no storms in the next two days!"

The chat group burst into laughter: "Even the boss gets fooled sometimes!"

Michael was furious: "I really want to kill him!"

Xila smiled and said, "Boss, I have a way to help you vent your anger. I've heard about that old lady who's doing astrologing in Dark Alley these past few days. She's offering free predictions for advertising, and they're incredibly accurate! Let this master go and compete with the old lady."

Michael was surprised and said, "That instructor of Dachun? Is he really that accurate?"

Xila laughed and said, "I don't know. I suspect he's a liar! I think this Imperial Master is a liar with real skills. Let two liars collide?"

Michael said bitterly, "Okay!"
