Chapter 167: Predicting the Future

The skeletons retreated, as they had come, and vanished into the darkness like a tide.

After Sun Licheng used the death impact to completely smash the cyclops skeleton, the skeleton general knew that the general situation was gone, and he did not delay, and quickly issued an order to the army to retreat.

Looking at the battlefield where the smoke of gunpowder cleared, everyone was in a trance.

"We've won!"

I don't know who shouted first, but immediately after, the cheers resounded in the sky.

"We have to be in the next oasis and wait for the arrival of the next army. ”

Early the next morning, at the post-war meeting, Hong Sunaibu said to Sun Licheng.

Sun Licheng nodded in agreement.

Last night's sneak attack caused more than 100 casualties among the army, and the key was that it caused a lot of panic among the soldiers. The reason for the panic is that the weapons in their hands are not able to deal with disembodied creatures like the undead.

For a fighter, there is no way to fight back against the enemy, which is the most desperate.

Of course, another reason why Sun Licheng agreed not to attack anymore was that the enemy was stronger than he imagined, and the huge skeleton made him remember it deeply.

Only one appeared last night, but what if there were ten? Not to mention opening the blockage of the dark river, even whether it can reach the Boulder Mountain Range, there will be a question mark.

In this case, the next day, after Sun Licheng's army moved to the next oasis, he set up a large camp and began to wait for the arrival of subsequent reinforcements.

And in the cave of the Boulder Mountain Range, listening to the bone eagle's latest report, the necromancer couldn't help but sigh deeply.

Although he is a mid-level necromancer, he has studied under a famous family, so he has some magic scrolls of high-level undead and even saint-level undead.

I thought that by using my summoning technique and some magic scrolls, I could repel Sun Licheng's attack, but I didn't expect the other party's strength to be so strong.

According to the Skeleton General's return, the sudden appearance of the ogre god of war has the power of a demon god, which is not at all something that a low-level class like the skeleton soldier can compete with.

"Destroy them?"

The necromancer hesitated as he pinched a magic scroll, but he thought about it, shook his head, and put the scroll back on the table in front of him.

In the darkness, this scroll emitted a crystal light, and it was obviously a rare treasure.

"Alas, I miss me Barak, a talented student of the Holy Shield Undead Academy, and a treasure gifted by the teacher, for the sake of the whole world, I didn't expect it to be so hard. The necromancer shouted in frustration, venting the anger in his heart, and then ordered: "Increase the reconnaissance, and don't disturb me unless these sandmen rush to the pass of the Boulder Mountains." ”

With that, he went into the depths of the cave and began to meditate for a long time.

On the fourth day, Sun Licheng finally waited for the follow-up army. Led by Abner and Clark, more than 1,200 sandman warriors rushed to Sun Licheng's camp.

"The undead are more powerful than we thought, especially the powerful skeletons that appear, and the destructive power is amazing. ”

At the follow-up combat meeting, Sun Licheng briefed everyone on the battle situation in the past few days.

After listening to Sun Licheng's introduction, everyone who arrived later felt a headache.

The undead creatures were terrifying enough, and they didn't expect such a powerful enemy to appear, and the warriors who were originally full of confidence immediately became apprehensive.

"Lord Sun Licheng, I think we should pray to His Majesty, the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy. ”

After thinking for a while, Abner suggested to Sun Licheng.

Sun Licheng is waiting for this sentence, he is not a believer in the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy, and he can't contact His Majesty if he wants to, and now that Abner is here, he can finally ask His Majesty how to deal with undead creatures.

Soon, a small shrine was set up, and with Abner's prayers, His Majesty, the god of knowledge and diplomacy, appeared in Sun Licheng's mind.

"My Majesty, you have finally appeared. ”

When Sun Licheng saw His Majesty, the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy, it was like seeing a relative.

"What's the matter?"

His Majesty, the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy, said with a smile as he remained so calm.

Sun Licheng recounted the battle a few days ago to him, and then said: "If I lead the mechanical puppet army of the Goblin Empire, these bone frames are not to worry about at all, but these sandmen under my command now are too backwardly equipped, especially without weapons to deal with the undead who have no physical creatures." ”

His Majesty, the God of Knowledge and Diplomacy, nodded in understanding.

He thought for a moment and said to Sun Licheng, "Such a powerful necromancer shouldn't appear in a place like the Sand Sea. Even if they believe in death, they will not do such a conscientious thing as cutting off the Dark River. ”

"Your Majesty, shouldn't the gods be able to predict the future?"

Sun Licheng was a little puzzled, in his impression, the gods should have known five hundred years ago, and five hundred years later, why did His Majesty in front of him seem to know nothing about the things in the nether realm.

Hearing Sun Licheng's words, His Majesty the Divine smiled bitterly, and then explained.

This world is not a legendary world, although the gods have great power, but they are not as omnipotent as Sun Licheng understands, especially the use of space-time magic that consumes divine power such as predicting the future, few gods take the initiative to do it.

Because if you do it once, you will not only spend a lot of divine power, but you will also be likely to be attacked by the wheel of fortune. In this world, except for the Three Sisters of Time, for other gods, accurate prediction of the future is risky.

What's even more terrifying is that the more accurate the prediction, people will try to change their fate in vain, but fate is protected by both the wheel of order and the wheel of fate, so the consequences of changing fate are often extremely terrible.

"You see, I don't use predictions, it's for your own good. His Majesty said helplessly, and then added: "Perhaps this is the tribulation that the great creator god must endure in order to test us." ”

Okay, Sun Licheng confessed, but he thought about it a little more, and asked His Majesty the gods: "What about rough predictions? As you said, predicting the future is like action and reaction, and since accurate predictions will bring violent reactions, what about rough ones? ”

"Predictions lead to reactions, and rough predictions may not only have no effect, but may also cause you strong unease. Do you really want that?"

His Majesty looked at Sun Licheng and said with a smile.

Sun Licheng thought for a while, his face was firm, and he said: "I want this kind of ability, I just need that kind of rough prediction." ”

His Majesty the gods saw that Sun Licheng didn't look like a joke, his face became solemn, he asked Sun Licheng again, and when he saw Sun Licheng's insistence, he sighed and said, "Okay, I will give you the ability to predict the future, I hope you will do it yourself." ”

After speaking, a ray of light wrapped Sun Licheng!
