Chapter 76 Divination
“The former”Watson District” was not so chaotic. It was once a vibrant and thriving area.”
“This place was once a beautiful home until the arrival of the Arasaka Corporation. When
Jack Wells was not here, Misty, as the host, not only served a cup of hot tea to Ali and Lucy, but also told them some stories about the area.
“During the reconstruction of the former”Watson District”, some wealthy Japanese companies made grand plans for the area and invested millions of dollars.”
“But after the end of the United War, Saburo Arasaka returned to Night City with his company, and all the prosperity of Watson District came to an end.”
“Arasaka Group has its own plans for Watson District. In order to implement the plan smoothly, they must get rid of these competitors. No one knows whether it is because of the old grudges of the motherland or just because of business disputes, but Arasaka’s lawyers and bankers let their opponents bleed in the mall one after another.”
“As a result, the Watson District changed like this. The industrial area almost no longer provided jobs, and many people became unemployed. The Arasaka Group also took over the Arasaka Beach in Watson to ensure that their business could expand overseas.”
“Now Watson District has become the garbage dump of Night City and is planned to be a living area for the bottom-level factory workers. This is because it is much easier to control the residents of Watson District within the jurisdiction than to be responsible for them. In other words, other areas of the city have abandoned this place.”
“In short, the rich and powerful don’t like to see poor people wandering around the city center. You know, when they look down at the city through the shiny glass towers, it ruins their mood.”
Misty talked about the problems that the”Watson District” is facing now, and the people here live in”dire straits”, which has also caused many people to have”diseases” in their hearts. Misty’s psychic house is a good place for these patients with”mental diseases”.
She is an immigrant of Polish descent. She grew up in Heywood and has lived in Night City. She is very similar to Lucy. Just like Lucy wants to leave Night City and go to the moon, Misty in the game’s ending also planned to leave Night City and return to Poland.
In the cyberpunk world, the disintegration of the Soviet Union did not happen, and Poland was still in the period of the Polish People’s Republic. At the same time, in this world,”Poland” has replaced the”Vatican” as the new”Catholic” center.
So to speak,”Misty” has the blood of”Catholicism”, which is no wonder that she would open a”psychic house” and become a mysterious”Tarot card fortune-teller”.”
“You have also seen the door of my psychic room. That is the”Chakra” that I believe in. It comes from”India” and refers to the energy field of the human body. This means that I can see the”energy” radiated by everyone.””
“The energy of the human body is like a constantly rotating”air vortex”. Everyone has seven such”chakras” in the body. They connect people’s luck, fortune, and future. They can calculate the past, present, past regrets and future outcomes!”
“How about Ali and Lucy, do you want me to calculate your”destiny”?”？”
Misty smiled slightly, she went back to the counter and took out a plate of”Tarot cards” and lit some incense.
“You! How do you know my name? I don’t think I’ve ever told you.”
Lucy looked at Misty with wide eyes, as if she was surprised that she had revealed her name.
“Misty is a very good fortune teller”
“She always knows a lot of things inexplicably.”
A Li shook his head. In the game,”Misty” once predicted for”Jack Wells”. Before meeting”Dexter (the black fat middleman who asked Jack and his friends to steal the chip from the”Cyan Building”)”
,”Misty” predicted the death of”Jack Wells”.
Misty reminded Jack Wells, saying”I saw your negative energy field. Please worry about red, avoid red, avoid red, any red!” Misty’s calculations were very accurate. The logo of”Arasaka Corporation” was red, the chip of”Relic” was red, the”Cyan Building” in alert mode was red, the”Delaman” in combat mode was red, and finally in the”Delaman” car, the bloody corners of Jack Wells’ mouth before his death were also red.
That day, everything in front of Jack Wells was red, and only that day would Jack suddenly realize it. Before he died, he smiled bitterly and said to V:”In fact, Misty knew it a long time ago. She has always known everything.”
Anyway, the Tarot cards are mysterious and weird, and Ali doesn’t want to get involved in them. He waved his hand at Misty and refused her divination.……
“Forget it.”Destiny” is too mysterious and difficult to change. Sometimes knowing too much will only add to your troubles and is useless.”
“So I still prefer to”take one step at a time” and use”action” to write and see my own”destiny” rather than being”predicted” by others.””
“But Lucy, you can try it.”
“Anyway, it’s not a bad thing to”have fun””
“By the way, Misty, is Victor here?”
Ali stood up happily. Jack Wells hadn’t arrived yet. Since he had come to Misty’s psychic house, he also wanted to find”Victor” who was not far away, to meet him and reminisce about the past.
“Yes, he is in the clinic and he complained to me earlier that he has too few clients.”
“But Victor is like this. He complains, but I think he hopes that no one gets hurt so that he can always be so”free”.””
“That’s true.”
Ali nodded, then said goodbye to”Misty” and went to chat with Victor. However, Lucy did not follow Ali. Instead, she came to Misty’s counter with”interest”.
She looked at a stack of tarot cards on the desk at the front desk, and then looked at Misty, who was smiling”gently”.
“Can you help me calculate it?”
“What will be my fate?”
On the other side, Ali came to the door of Victor’s clinic. Just as he was about to open the door of Victor’s clinic, the pleasant”sign-in” sound of the system suddenly rang in his mind!
【Sign in!】
【Ding, congratulations to the host for signing in for three minutes with the plot character Misty and obtaining the exclusive survival skill [Basic Divination】】
【Basic divination:”A fortune teller who has achieved some success has already touched the thread of the law of”fate” and”future”. He needs to get close to the person being divined, and use”incense” and comfortable”massage” to make the person enter a”peace of mind” before he can perform divination.”】
【Divination is also divided into five levels: basic, intermediate, advanced, epic, and legendary!】
【Basic divination can predict a hint of the”past” and a hint of the”future”, but can only sense complex”murderous intentions” and cannot accurately predict or tell the key”fate”. However, even if it can only tell a hint of”murderous intentions”, it is enough for those who”obey the divination prophecy” to avoid”disasters”, including a”death disaster”.”！】
