The second volume is full of glory and splendor in the capital, and the spirit is full of vitality in the foggy city. Chapter 241 Tarot (Part 2)
This chapter's subtitle: This is not a joke! Attention, this is not a joke...
In addition to the four heavenly kings, the current Major Arcana also includes "Destiny No. 10" Miss Enyoka Rochelle and "Justice No. 11" Mr. Julian Chandler, neither of whom are historical celebrities.
However, these two are even more important to Lord Fool, as they are his two major “agents”.
Without these two, how could he deal with those guys who easily caused 404 errors?
Especially "Mr. Justice", our Master Yuan even hopes that he will become a representative of the Communist International in the future.
As for "Ms. Destiny," Yuan Yanshu was reluctant to let her lover take risks, so she just tried to fool the Nazi high-ranking officials in her hometown of Germany. The little mustache and the others fell for this trick.
As for "Magician No. 1 " Master Aishouyi and "Tower No. 16" Nikola Tesla, no matter whether these two are of great use or not, they are real historical figures after all.
Moreover, both of them are very mysterious and boastful people, so it would be good to satisfy Master Yuan's collecting habit.
Compared with these two "big vases", "Lover No. 6" Ms. Lillian Gish, "Hermit No. 9" Edgar Hoover, and "Trial No. 20" Albert Einstein are not only real historical celebrities, but also people who can be of great use.
Actually, "No. 12 Hanged Man's" "Always Right" will definitely be of great use, and "No. 14 Temperance's" "Don't Let Me Die" is even more useful...
Speaking of Lord Temperance, it's almost time. His two "agents" should be meeting with him soon.
Thinking of this, our Master Yuan couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Do you think it would be inappropriate for a time traveler like him to travel back to 1920 and not meet "Mr. Moderation"?
After taking stock of the Major Arcana, there are also the Minor Arcana.
There is no need to say much about the newly recruited "King of Swords" Douglas MacArthur and "Queen of Pentacles" Ms. Louise Cromwell Brooks. One is the future third commander of the empire, and the other is a very wealthy billionaire.
These two are both famous and rich.
President Yuan’s three poker partners were indeed not famous, but they were rich.
Camel Xiangzi is the "King of Cups". According to the meaning of the Tarot card, he is an honest and well-intentioned man, but he tends to make hasty decisions. Therefore, he is not someone you can rely on, and don't expect to get useful advice from him.
This rich young man from Tianjin does not have any talent and is a bit careless, but he is a warm-hearted person and is very suitable for public relations work to promote mahjong.
The Six-Fingered Demon is the "Knight of Wands". This card represents being lucky enough to get help from relatives or strangers.
Yuan Yanshu had received help from others, otherwise she might not have been able to establish a relationship with the New York Anliang Headquarters, nor might she have been able to save Miss Enyuka.
Xiao Yang Sheng Jian is the "Sword Page," a lazy guy, perhaps a liar, or even a corporate spy..
His fellow Shanghai native is a bit boastful and not very fond of studying, but he is an intellectual who has studied abroad and can help Master Yuan whether in America or Serbia.
Like Yang Jingbang, Luo Puxiang and Lu Yan are also prominent local families, and they happen to be from one in the south, one in the north, and one in the center. That's what connections are all about.
After talking about old friends, let’s talk about new friends.
Victor Eden's 10 of Swords is a sad card that also means imprisonment, denying all bad omens.
However, the Fool's "self-sacrifice" helped the Ten of Swords, allowing the grieving husband and father to regain his healthy wife and daughter, and this pregnancy omen finally had a good result.
With a professionally trained "security expert" like General ZOD, Yuan Yanshu and his SCP Foundation will definitely be more "safe".
Condor's 8 of Swords is not a good card either. This card reminds people to be cautious in all their undertakings. Those who seem to be friends may become enemies.
Nintendo's sage, Erye, had always believed his driver was a spy sent by Situ Dalongtou, and that was only natural. If they were in each other's shoes, he would also find a way to understand the other's situation.
So he used the Eight of Swords card to remind himself to be careful, as a warning.
The above are all the official members of the SCP Foundation so far.
So what comes next?
Lord Fool put down his cutlery, wiped his lips with a napkin, and asked his nephew sternly, "Shuzhi, what have you considered?"
"Uncle... No, it's Lord Fool!" Young Master Huang said without hesitation, "I've decided. I'm willing to become the SCP Foundation..."
"demon!"
Our Master Yuan narrowed his eyes and looked at him for a long time with his "Eyes of Nothingness" before he slowly said, "Mr. Huang, have you really decided? Don't blame me for not reminding you..."
"And you!" He turned his head and glanced at the other two Major Arcana with his somewhat bewitching eyes. Then he said in a stern tone, "Gentlemen, I'm not joking..."
“Please pay attention, I’m not kidding…”
"Please note that from now on, once you become a Major Arcana of our SCP Foundation, there is only one way to withdraw, and that is..."
"die!"
“…” The table suddenly became quiet.
Upon hearing his chilling words, the two Major Arcana beside him also stopped eating. Their expressions turned serious, and they opened their mouths as if they wanted to say something.
But they both hesitated for a long time and finally did not speak out in opposition.
At this moment, the four gentlemen present realized one thing, some clearly, some vaguely, some happily, and some hesitantly.
As Lord Fool said this, the SCP Foundation has transformed from a joking "amateur group" into a truly deterrent "mysterious organization"!
That’s right, our Master Yuan used the “sausage slicing” tactic.
If he had told his friends from the beginning that quitting the SCP Foundation would mean death, these rich second-generations would have nothing better to do than join such an organization.
But now it’s different. At least these two have gained a lot of benefits from Yuan Yanshu.
"His Holiness the Pope" became a successful entrepreneur, and even his grandfather, uncles and cousins praised him highly.
"His Majesty the Emperor" also has a lot of money and is a well-known and respected barrister.
Now they want to quit, and they are really reluctant to do so.
Another crucial point is that they are also very aware that "Lord Fool" does have the ability to take their lives. It is a real supernatural power!
"I, I, I..." Huang Zongyi finally revealed a determined look and said firmly: "I do!"
