There's a big problem with dreams in this world.

For example, when making plans, prepare escape routes in advance, place haystacks in some places in advance, or choose places with rivers or ponds as routes of action.

A normal enemy would never imagine that someone could jump from a great height and not die.

"Little Deer, your card character is an assassin, right? You look like one just by looking at your clothes."

Fang Qingrou glanced at Lu Qing's hood and laughed, "Little Lu, you look just like an assassin now."

"After all, they can't win a direct fight, so they can only hide in the back and launch sneak attacks." Lu Qing subconsciously touched her hood and said.

"By the way, Xiaorou, what's your card character?" Lu Qing asked curiously.

"I?"

Fang Qingrou smiled mysteriously and said:

"My character on the card is a fortune teller~"

"A fortune teller?"

Lu Qing looked at Fang Qingrou with a puzzled expression. She never expected that the other party's card character would be a fortune teller.

"You didn't use... uh."

Lu Qing glanced at the sword sheath on Fang Qingrou's back and was about to say something when she remembered that the sword sheath was also a newly acquired item, and she didn't know anything about Fang Qingrou's skills.

"Puch."

Fang Qingrou couldn't help but laugh out loud and said, "You guessed right, I'm a warrior-type player. The reason I chose the fortune teller card is because I can never find the hidden clues in the dream. I always just brute force my way through. I just wanted to make up for my weakness."

When Fang Qingrou got to this point, her expression became somewhat resentful, and she said:

"Moreover, most of the items I obtained are things that are for mages. Even if I wanted to make a warrior card, I simply couldn't. I don't want to put the sword sheath that I finally obtained into it."

"I see."

Lu Qing nodded, then asked, "When we get back later, Xiao Rou, would you like to use your fortune teller character to do a divination for us?"

"Yes." Fang Qingrou nodded and said, "I was planning to do this anyway, but now is not the time."

"Let's talk about it when we get back," Lu Qing said.

After speaking, Lu Qing walked towards Belis. Since the weapon shop owner was working diligently, Lu Qing didn't want to disturb him and could only ask Belis for advice.

With a thought, Lu Qing took out the design drawings for the hidden sword.

The design blueprints provided by the cards can be freely retrieved in the dream world, since not everyone can memorize the blueprints and then draw them for the characters in the dream world.

In this respect, Lu Qing felt that the dream game was quite humane.

“Um, Miss Bellis, there’s actually another item I wanted to make, but I forgot to mention it. Could you please give this design to your father later?”

Upon hearing Lu Qing's words, Bellis frowned subconsciously. She took the design from Lu Qing's hand, a look of surprise on her face.

"What a sophisticated weapon!"

She carefully examined the entire design drawing, then looked at Lu Qing seriously and said:

“I will show this design to my father. I believe he will be interested. However, the precision of this weapon is too high, so the price may be a bit expensive, and the production time will be a bit long.”

"By the way, how many of these weapons do you plan to make?" Beris suddenly asked.

“One is enough,” Lu Qing replied.

Hidden blades and dual hidden blades are different. Although Lu Qing didn't know exactly what the difference was, the design drawings sent by the system stated that ordinary hidden blades could only be carried in one hand and could only be worn on the left hand.

As for what kind of structure was added to the dual-wielding hidden swords, Lu Qing wasn't quite sure.

Thinking about it carefully, you actually need to decipher the secret letter first to obtain a two-handed hidden blade in the game, so there might really be some difference between a two-handed hidden blade and a one-handed hidden blade.

"But if that happens..."

Lu Qing thought of her only remaining gold coin, and a troubled expression appeared on her face.

I wonder if she'll exit the dream after the opera performance. Hopefully, she'll be able to pay back the money once she receives her full commission. Otherwise, even if this is a dream, Lu Qing will still feel guilty.

After explaining to Bellis that he still owed money, Bellis did not ask Lu Qing for the gold coins and, after expressing her understanding, let Lu Qing and the other person leave.

For Belis, being able to forge a weapon she had never seen before was far more precious than gold coins.

Moreover, since her father was willing to believe the two silver-haired girls, she was also willing to believe them.

After leaving the weapon shop, Lu Qing and her companion did not return to the hotel immediately, but instead went to the Feng Hua Opera House first.

After all, we'll be practicing here tomorrow, so it's necessary to come and check out the venue beforehand.

At the entrance of the opera house, a staff member was sitting at the counter, looking bored. He yawned as he sat there.

The opera house tickets sold out three days ago. People who came later naturally didn't come after they knew there were no tickets left. Those who wanted to see the opera went to scalpers who were selling tickets at high prices.

So he had a lot of free time here, just keeping an eye on the gate and preventing small animals and children from entering the opera house to avoid damaging anything before the performance started.

"That person must have a lot of influence. The higher-ups actually lent them the venue for free, for a whole month," someone in the stands thought.

Just as he was thinking this, two silver-haired girls suddenly walked towards him.

He quickly came to his senses and subconsciously said, "Sorry, the tickets are sold out."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the two people in front of him and was immediately stunned.

His heartbeat seemed to slow down for a moment. Even though he had seen many beautiful actresses, he had to admit the beauty of the two girls in front of him.

That wasn't the kind of sexy beauty he was used to; it was a kind of beauty that made people feel like they couldn't have any thoughts about her and wanted to protect her.

"Um, we're not here to buy tickets. We'd like to go inside and see what it looks like, is that alright?" Lu Qing asked the man in front of her.

"Forehead......."

After hesitating for a moment, the man in charge of the counter nodded and said, "You can go in, but don't damage anything inside. Come out as soon as you've seen enough."

"Thank you!"

With a delighted expression, Lu Qing grabbed Fang Qingrou's hand, and the two walked into the opera house together.

Watching the two girls' retreating figures, the counter manager, who had agreed to their request for some reason, was somewhat stunned. He seemed to understand what he had just felt.

"I feel, well... in short, she's very cute."

Chapter 59: Divination

"I'd like to try my luck with a fortune telling here."

After entering the opera house, Fang Qingrou, who was following behind Lu Qing, suddenly spoke up.

“Sure, I’m not a fortune teller,” Lu Qing replied.

Although somewhat surprised by Fang Qingrou's decision and unsure why she wanted to perform divination here, it didn't matter, since Fang Qingrou was her teammate.

Lu Qing was willing to believe the other person, and Fang Qingrou was also willing to believe her, just like when she climbed to the top of the tower and jumped off.

Although Lu Qing did not ask about the original state, Fang Qingrou still explained why she wanted to perform divination here.

"Yes, the card's attached skill is basic divination. Although the level isn't very high, it allows me to sense the special nature of this place."

As she spoke, Fang Qingrou's attire also changed.

A light purple suit appeared on her, and Fang Qingrou stood in front of Lu Qing, holding a straight, jet-black cane.

Blinking gently, Lu Qing asked, "Isn't your character a fortune teller? Why are you wearing a suit?"

"As a famous detective, what's wrong with knowing a little bit of divination?" Fang Qingrou winked playfully at Lu Qing and said.

"........"

"There's no other way. It's really too difficult to create a background setting for a fortune teller character. Besides, I often just don't notice the details. Now that I have detective skills, I can find a lot of details. If I really can't find anything, I can just use divination. Aren't I smart?"

"Yes, yes, very clever," Lu Qing said with a smile.

Fang Qingrou's idea was not wrong; the detective is indeed a very good card class, but the problem is...

What use is a detective's skill if you don't have a detective's mind?

Fortunately, when fully activated, not only do all the card's skills take effect, but even the card's personality will be affected. If you ever encounter a situation where clues are right in front of you but you can't figure it out, using full activation is a good option.

"I'm going to start the divination!" Fang Qingrou said solemnly.

"Okay, let's begin."

Lu Qing took a few steps back. Although she didn't know what was needed for divination, she felt it was better to stay away so as not to disturb the other person.

Just after Lu Qing stepped back, Fang Qingrou took out a stack of cards from her pocket, the brand of which was unknown.

This is, after all, another world. The cards that Lu Qing knew in her previous life do not exist in this world, and even knowledge of mysticism is completely different in this world compared to her previous life.

Unfortunately, many of Lu Qing's memories from her past life were deeply hidden. Normally, apart from feeling different, she couldn't recall the specific details at all. Otherwise, Lu Qing would have liked to bring out some things that interested her.

Fang Qingrou skillfully shuffled the cards, then quickly drew out five cards and placed them on the ground.

Then, she held the black cane upright in the middle of the five cards and slowly released her grip.

A miraculous thing happened: the cane stood upright on the ground, showing no sign of falling down without any external force.

This reminded Lu Qing of a famous great man from her previous life. As everyone knows, gravity in other worlds is not under Newton's control.

The next moment, the cane began to shake strangely. Under Lu Qing's gaze, the pitch-black cane finally fell slowly to the ground and began to spin on the smooth floor.

Finally, it stopped in front of one of the cards.

Fang Qingrou picked up the card and looked at its contents. At that moment, her purple suit disappeared, along with the cane on the ground and the card in her hand.

It looks like it's time for full activation.

However, judging from Fang Qingrou's expression, she had already deciphered the contents of the card.

"How is it?" Lu Qing asked as she stepped forward.

Upon hearing Lu Qing's question, Fang Qingrou looked puzzled and said:

"According to the divination, there will be no danger during the thirty days of practice. What we really need to pay attention to is when the opera performance begins. Strangely, according to the divination, it seems that no one is paying attention to this opera performance at all, but the danger will indeed happen on the day of the performance."

"Is there any more information?" Lu Qing asked.

Shaking her head, Fang Qingrou said, "There's no more information. Although the characters in the card game are very powerful, my mental attributes are still relatively low even with the card's enhancement, so the information that can be obtained through divination is limited."

“Okay, but according to the divination, there will be no danger during the thirty days of rehearsals before the performance, right?” Lu Qing said.

“Not necessarily. The information obtained through divination is not very detailed. Most of the time, it requires analysis. Therefore, sometimes the analysis based on the divination results can be wrong,” Fang Qingrou explained.
