Chapter 268: Major Arcana Franka, who was sitting cross-legged in the easy chair, seemed to have thought about this question a long time ago. After a little consideration, she smiled and said: "Mr. Fool's church is more like a relatively independent subsidiary of our Tarot Club." Seeing that Lumian was still a little confused, she elaborated further: "Every one of the Major Arcana cards in our Tarot Club is a big figure in the real world or the occult world. I suspect that the Pope of the Church of the Fool should be one of them. Other Major Arcana cards may lead other organizations. The people in those organizations may not necessarily believe in Mr. Fool, but they will provide assistance to certain actions of the Tarot Club. "To put it simply, the Tarot Club is the highest deliberative body directly led by Mr. The Fool. Every holder of the Major Arcana card has a very high status and has his own power, one of which is the Church of the Fool." Lumian probably understood what Franka meant, and asked: "How many Major Arcana do we have in total?" Franka shook her head. "I can't give you an exact number, because the identities of the holders of the Major Arcana are kept secret. The only ones we come into contact with the most are the ones directly under our jurisdiction. Mmm... mine is Ms. 'Judgment'." "Mine is Ms. 'Magician'." Lumian followed. Franka laughed: "It seems that the two of them often appear together. Well, we in the Tarot Club have a habit. After doing certain things, we will scatter the entire deck of tarot cards on the scene and place the card that represents ourselves in the most eye-catching position..." "Isn't this a waste?" Lumian interrupted Franka.
"It's just a deck of tarot cards, right? Don't you think this is cool?" Franca muttered. "You can also just keep the card that represents you, but what's the point of a tarot deck without a card? Don't you have to buy a new deck next time? If you go to a factory to order a large number of tarot cards with only one card, you'll be easily targeted." "I can draw it myself." Lumian had already thought of a solution. Although it was impossible for him to draw it exactly like the print, it was enough to show the main features of the "Seven of Wands". Franka was speechless for a moment, and after a few seconds she said: “My own paintings will have some connection with mysticism, right? Then won’t I have to waste energy on reverse divination? "Well, it's not necessary to release it. You don't need to release it when you're acting with non-Tarot Club members, when you're carrying out a covert mission like this, or when you're clearly a suspect. "Fuck! How did you divert the topic? What I want to say is that because we in the Tarot Club have such habits and customs, I learned about the more active Major Arcana cards through various newspapers and different occult gatherings: "Ms. Justice, who has appeared several times on the coast of the Sea of Interval, Trier, and Backlund, Mr. Hanged Man, Ms. Hermit, and Mr. Sun on the sea, Mr. Moon and Mr. Star on the southern continent. As for whether there are other holders of the Major Arcana cards, I don't know." Ms. Justice, Mr. Hanged Man, Mr. Sun, Ms. Hermit, Mr. Star, Mr. Moon... Lumian found that this row of titles put together was really mysterious and classy, unlike the "Seven of Wands" and "Two of Cups" which sounded like trash. After a little thought, he found that Franca mentioned a key point: The places where Ms. Justice appeared include the coast of the Sea, Trier, and Backlund. This is the only Major Arcana card that is definitely likely to be in Trier, aside from Lady Judgment and Lady Magician. Lumian remembered clearly that Ms. Susie had mentioned that people on the west coast of the Interstellar Sea might indeed be extraordinary people of the Audience Path. This in turn also shows that she has sufficient knowledge about the western coast of the Jianhai. Combined with the fact that she and the other "psychiatrist" were in Trier, their sphere of activities overlapped with that of Ms. Justice by at least two-thirds. In addition, Ms. Magician spoke of the two "psychologists" in a relatively equal manner and her own psychological problems involved higher-level matters, so Lumian suspected that one of them was Ms. Justice. Judging from the fact that both Ms. Magician and Ms. Judge like to refer to themselves by Tarot cards and hide their real names, the mysterious lady who has been sitting opposite is more likely to be the holder of the Major Arcana card "Justice", and Susie is like the Minor Arcana card under her. Thinking of this, Lumian looked at Franca, who had changed her sitting position, and said: "Were you planning to find a real 'psychologist' for Jana's brother from within our 'Tarot Club'?" Franka, who didn’t understand why Lumian suddenly changed the subject to this, was stunned for a moment and said: "No, I'm going to look for members of the Curly-haired Baboon Society. "I try not to contact my Major Arcana Lady of Judgment unless it's something extremely critical or serious. Although she has always been very peaceful and willing to help, you know what? She is a true demigod, a great figure with divinity. How can you frequently bother her with all kinds of trivial matters? She says she doesn't mind, but what she says may not be the same as what she thinks. Every meaningless trouble may lead to a decrease in her favorability.
"Once your favorability drops to a certain level, a demigod will have all sorts of ways to make you worse off than dead, and you won't know why. "I usually solve problems that I can solve by myself. If I can't solve problems, I will seek help from Gardner Martin or members of the research institute. If that doesn't work, I will consider contacting Ms. Judgment." Lumian actually had a similar mentality, but he had excuses such as reporting on missions and suppressing the influence of Thermipolos, so he could write to the "magician" lady from time to time and inquire about some information. I've already written the letter, so there's nothing to lose by asking! Seeing that the "psychologist" that Franca had wanted to hire was not the same as his own, Lumian did not mention Susie and nodded slightly. "Me, too." At this time, Franca glanced around and unconsciously lowered her voice: “But never be shy when it’s time to ask for help. The resources and power these Major Arcanas possess are beyond your imagination. Things that you find difficult to handle may be solved by them with just a command or a thought. "Isn't my magical item, the Ring of Punishment, very powerful? It was given to me by Madam Judgment. After I asked for it, she gave it to me directly and even allowed me to delay the exchange of chips for an equivalent amount for a period of time. "Uh... I understand why you were able to get the formula and main ingredients of the 'Arsonist' potion so quickly!" That was indeed the right guess...Lumian smiled and told Franca the correct answer in this way. He felt that if he could obtain the extraordinary characteristics that matched the "Shadow Branch", he could really ask the "Magician" lady to help find a "craftsman" at the saint level to make the corresponding magical item. Compared to him who is only Sequence 7, the “Magician” lady who has entered the demigod realm is more likely to know a high-level “Craftsman”! Franka exhaled and continued the previous topic: "Every holder of a Major Arcana card is a demigod, most likely a saint. At least the more active ones don't seem to have the status of angels on earth. But Ms. Judgment told me that the Tarot Club has angels, not just one!" At least eight saints, not just one angel? This is stronger than the Aurora Society... It is indeed the most special secret organization... Lumian sighed, and instinctively wondered if this was the core members of the Tarot Society trying to exalt themselves to make their subordinates feel more at home. Franka said with a longing look: "My current dream is to advance step by step to Sequence 5, then jump to Sequence 4 of the Hunter Path, become a demigod, and be eligible to get a Major Arcana card. "That not only means greater strength and a greater sense of security, but also means that I can attend the meeting before God and wait for Mr. Fool to wake up and ask Him something." According to Ms. Magician, only Mr. Fool can decide who gets the Major Arcana, not whether or not one has been promoted to Sequence 4 and become a demigod... Lumian discouraged Franka from having too high expectations. Franca didn't mind at all and said with a smile: "Anyway, my question will have to wait until Mr. Fool wakes up. By then, the demigod will definitely be more qualified than other members to get the Major Arcana card." Having said this, she looked at Lumian and said: "Besides us, there are four more active Minor Arcana cards in Trier, and the entire world has a total of twenty-three. But there may be fewer because many Beyonders think it is cool to throw Tarot cards at the scene of an incident, and they intentionally imitate it, or use it to divert the direction of the official Beyonder investigation. "In Trier, the most famous card is the 'Knight of Swords'. At the beginning of the year, he detonated a warehouse belonging to the 'Rose School', a terrorist organization in the southern continent. A large amount of explosives was hidden there, and there were also some non-human body parts at the scene..." Lumian listened carefully to Franca's story and gained a certain understanding of the "Tarot Club" and the Major Arcana and Minor Arcana. He thought for a while and said: “Are there occult gatherings between the Minor Arcana?” "No." Franka shook her head again, "Unless we meet in reality like we did, we can only communicate through our respective Major Arcana cards. Well, there are regular gatherings between the Major Arcana cards in Mr. Fool's kingdom of God! "However, Ms. Judgment mentioned once that if there is a real urgent need, with the help of our own major arcana cards, we can communicate in a way that transcends the actual distance, but this is not a routine matter." Lumian was fine, and after chatting for a few more words, he heard Janna's footsteps coming up the stairs. He immediately stood up and prepared to leave. "Where are you going?" Franca asked a little confused.
There was nothing to do in the Breeze Ballroom at this time, so he might as well stay and play the "Fighting Evil" cards "invented" by Emperor Roselle. Lumian smiled with a complicated tone: "To the catacombs." The ashes of madman Flamand and the Ruhl couple were finally to be sent to the catacombs for burial. (End of this chapter)
