Chapter 409 The Villain Lady Arrives 238
After listening to Alice's experience, Alex showed a thoughtful look on his face. He nodded and said, "I see, you do need some luck to turn the situation around. Let me lend you the lucky stone, but you have to agree to one condition."
"What conditions?" Alice asked.
"Help me find a lost magic book." Alex said, "This book is called "The Source of Luck", and it records all the secrets about the attributes of luck. I have been looking for it for many years, but I still can't find it. I believe it must be hidden in a corner of this world."
Hearing this, Alice couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She didn't expect Alex to put forward such a condition. You know, "The Source of Luck" is a lost magic book, and it is not easy to find it.
However, looking at Alex's expectant eyes, Alice finally nodded: "Okay, I promise you. I will try my best to help you find the Source of Luck."
Alex smiled with satisfaction when he heard this. He took out a golden gem from his arms and handed it to Alice: "This is the lucky stone. Wear it. It will bring you good luck."
Alice took the lucky stone and looked at it carefully. The gem was crystal clear and emitted a soft light, as if it contained some mysterious power. She carefully put the lucky stone around her neck, and a warm current surged in her heart.
"Thank you, Alex." Alice said gratefully, "I will do my best to help you find the Source of Luck."
Alex smiled and nodded, "I believe you. Good luck."
After leaving the library, Alice felt much more relaxed. She seemed to be able to feel the power of the lucky stone flowing through her body. She believed that with this lucky stone, she would be able to turn the situation around and find the "Source of Luck".
However, things were not as simple as Alice imagined. She ran around the city, looking for clues about the "Source of Luck". However, no matter how hard she tried, she could not find any useful information.
"What on earth is going on?" Alice sat in a tavern, drinking and muttering to herself. She didn't understand why she couldn't find any clues to the "Source of Luck" even though she already had the Lucky Stone.
Just then, a mysterious man in a black robe walked into the tavern. He walked straight to Alice and sat down.
"Are you Alice?" the mysterious man asked in a low voice.
Alice looked up and saw that the mysterious man had a thin face and a cunning light in his eyes. She couldn't help but feel alert, wondering who this mysterious man was.
"I'm Alice, who are you?" Alice asked tentatively.
"It doesn't matter who I am." The mysterious man smiled. "What matters is that I know the whereabouts of the Source of Luck."
Hearing this, Alice couldn't help but feel excited. She didn't expect that she would get the clue of "The Source of Luck" here.
"Do you really know the whereabouts of the Source of Luck?" Alice asked anxiously.
The mysterious man nodded: "Of course. However, if you want to get this clue, you must pay a price."
"What's the price?" Alice asked.
"Give me your lucky stone." The mysterious man said, "Only then will I tell you the whereabouts of the Source of Luck."
Hearing this, Alice couldn't help but hesitate. She didn't know whether this mysterious man was trustworthy or not, and she didn't know whether he would regret it after getting the lucky stone.
However, seeing the determined look in the mysterious man's eyes, Alice finally decided to take a risk. She took off the lucky stone and handed it to the mysterious man: "Okay, I'll give you the lucky stone. Now can you tell me the whereabouts of the Source of Luck?"
The mysterious man took the lucky stone with a smug smile on his face. He whispered a few words in Alice's ear, then stood up and disappeared into the crowd.
After hearing what the mysterious man said, Alice was shocked. She didn't expect that the "Source of Luck" would be hidden in such a remote place. However, she knew that she had no way out. She had to find the "Source of Luck" to fulfill her promise to Alex.
So Alice packed her bags and set off on a journey to the place the mysterious man had mentioned. Along the way, she experienced countless hardships and obstacles, but she never gave up. She believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to find the "Source of Luck".
Finally, on a dark and windy night, Alice arrived at the place the mysterious man had mentioned. It was a desolate ruin with a strange atmosphere all around. Alice walked into the ruins carefully and began to look for the trace of the "Source of Luck".
After a hard search, Alice finally found the "Source of Luck" in a dilapidated temple. The book was lying quietly on the altar, emitting a soft light. Alice was excited, she knew she had finally found her goal.
However, just as she was about to pick up "The Source of Luck", a sudden voice interrupted her thoughts.
"I didn't expect that you actually found this place." A familiar figure walked out from the shadow of the temple. It was the mysterious man.
Alice looked at the mysterious man and was surprised. She didn't expect that this mysterious man would appear here.
"Why did you lie to me?" Alice asked, "You clearly knew the whereabouts of the Source of Luck, so why did you let me go through so many hardships and dangers?"
The mysterious man smiled and shook his head: "I didn't lie to you. I just wanted to test your determination and courage. Now it seems that you are indeed a trustworthy person."
Hearing this, Alice couldn't help but feel confused. She didn't understand who this mysterious person was and why he was trying so hard to test her.
However, seeing the sincere look in the mysterious man's eyes, Alice finally chose to believe him. She picked up the "Source of Luck" and flipped through it carefully. This book recorded all the secrets about the attributes of luck and how to use these secrets to enhance one's own power.
Alice was immersed in the world of "The Source of Luck". She seemed to be able to feel the luck attribute in her body constantly increasing. She believed that with the help of this book, she would become stronger.
However, just as she was about to leave the temple, a sudden change broke her peace. A group of people in black rushed in from all directions of the temple and surrounded them.
"Who are you? Why are you besieging us?" Alice asked loudly.
A leader stepped out from among the men in black. He looked at Alice and sneered, "We are the people behind the organization. I didn't expect that you actually found the Source of Luck. But now it's ours."
