Chapter 906: Speculations (Part 2)



Chapter 906: Speculations (Part 2)

The atmosphere of the God Kingdom, the “Light Plain,” of the human gods was tense. Countless clergymen and followers were going through an intense period of training. They were shouting so loudly that the sky could shake and did not show any signs of slacking.

When Sui Xiong came to visit, there was such a big and green jellyfish floating across the sky, and yet not a single one was curious enough to look up.

He noticed this. In his heart, he could not help but secretly sing praises.

As someone with an inquisitive mind, Sui Xiong had never thought that there could be such discipline in the world that could actually suppress the curiosity of people.

These men with such discipline could truly be regarded as Steel Beasts!

This made him even more pessimistic about the future of the Orcs. Though that was also a grim atmosphere enshrouding the God Kingdom, “Endless Field,” of the Orc God System, due to an impending war, the Orcs definitely did not have such discipline.

Although in this world, war was more about the confrontation between two parties in terms of their top-rated martial skills, the strength of military discipline was ultimately an important factor that should not be neglected.

Similar to the reaction of the Orc God System, the Human God System also expressed their surprise at Sui Xiong’s visit and extended their welcome to him. But unlike the Orc God System, when Sui Xiong said that he had something to discuss with the God of Light in private, the God of Light smiled. Also present was the God of Diplomacy who went to receive Sui Xiong, the God of Heroes who just happened to be around, as well as the God of Pleasure who had been invited over as company. The God of Light did not ask anyone to leave at all.

“In this lifetime of mine, my deeds are far from being regarded as good or just, but I’ve never lied to myself nor cheated my brothers and friends,” the God of Light, Wuther Rang, said lightly. “Even if it’s something confidential, I still trust that they will help me in keeping it a secret. Or rather, if there’s something that even they should not know, then I don’t wish to know about it either.”

There was no smile on his face. His expression was calm and deep, like the surface of the sea without any breeze. Yet it concealed a most fearsome power.

Sui Xiong did not mind, though. Anyway, if news got out, it would not hurt him either—the morale of the humans was low, but was it in any way related to him, who took a neutral stand?

So he smiled. Then he said, “In that case, I will just be straight and open about it. During this period, I have, more than once, had this strong premonition that the future of the human gods… does not seem to be looking good.”

The God of Light frowned and looked at the God of Diplomacy, “Contact the Goddess of Joy and tell her I want to see her—the Goddess of Fortune as well.”

The God of Diplomacy obeyed at once. Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly froze and replied, “The Sorrow-Proof God System has shut down its God Kingdom. All its members are leaving the Pantheon Temple, saying that they are going to maintain neutral and will not come out until the end of the war.”

The God of Light raised a brow as a bout of malice arose spontaneously. He tapped his finger on the armrest of his throne lightly a few times, then said, “Forget it. Anyway, we have already confirmed that the news is true.

He turned to look at Sui Xiong and asked, “Why do you want to tell us this news?”

Sui Xiong froze for a while, then asked him back, “Why shouldn’t I tell you this news?”

“Previously, you said that you wanted to be neutral. But in telling us this news, we’ll be prepared, and then we may not necessarily lose.”

Sui Xiong could not help laughing and said, “You mean to say, if you have prepared for it, even if this is predestined, you are still able to change it?”

His meaning was so bluntly plain that the God of Diplomacy and the God of Heroes looked unhappy, while on the other hand, the God of Pleasure was visibly uneasy.

He was old friends with Sui Xiong and knew how unreliable this old friend of his was. The Jellyfish God always did things in whatever ways, and if he pleased, he could even go head-to-head against the God of Order. In the face of the Human God System that had always been known for its seriousness and rigor, the situation was simply like how ice and fire were incompatible, and he feared that a fight was about to happen soon.

But the God of Light’s look stopped his two subordinates. He maintained his calm composure and looked at Sui Xiong. Then he said, “You mean, the failure of us humans is our predestined fate?”

“I didn’t say that,” Sui Xiong smiled without feeling nervous. “On the contrary, I was actually really looking forward to seeing you all overcome the limit of fate—all these years, I have never heard of anyone being able to break through the limit of fate. So I’m hoping to see an exception, even if it’s only once.”

The God of Light did not speak, and neither did the God of Diplomacy, the God of Heroes and the God of Pleasure. There was only silence within the hall.

After a long time, the God of Light said, “You do make sense here, fate is fate because of its absoluteness. Only what that can’t be broken through can be called fate.”

The God of Diplomacy and the God of Heroes could not help frowning.

“But, why is it that you can feel this fate, but I can’t?” asked the God of Light. The corners of his mouth curved up slightly, and with a hint of satire, he said, “If we must talk about the study of ‘fate,’ you simply can’t hold a candle to me. Especially when I’m directly involved in this matter, there’s no reason why you can feel it, but I can’t detect anything.”

He looked at Sui Xiong. In a very matter-of-course tone that made Sui Xiong unhappy, he asked, “You think that what I say makes sense?”

Sui Xiong remained silent. In truth, he was very confused as well.

He had first gone looking for the “Sky Devourer Canine,” Lefon. He wanted to see if Lefon had a hunch about anything. This was going to be the critical war that would determine the rise and decline of the human race and the Orc race. As the leader of the Orcs, Lefon carried the fate of his entire race. He himself was powerful. He was at least ranked within the top ten masters among the great Divine Powers. If there was really going to be some great variables in this war, there would be no reason for him not to feel any premonition.

But as it turned out, Lefon did not have a hunch. Or rather, his hunch was that “the Orcs would be defeated,” and this was not any different from what most of the other gods forebode.

That was why Sui Xiong had come to look for the God of Light, Wuther Rang.

At this moment, Sui Xiong was unable to answer the God of Light’s question.

In terms of strength, the God of Light was obviously above him. At this meeting, he could already clearly feel the change that was happening within the God of Light. Just as what Lefon had said, the God of Light had taken the crucial first step of stepping up from the level of a great Divine Power to that of a greater Divine Power. And he was slowly changing.

Now the God of Light should no longer be seen as a “great Divine Power.” He should be seen as a “greater Divine Power-to-be.” Or using the fashionable expression that Sui Xiong had seen in web-novels before he traversed worlds, the God of Light should be called a “half-step greater Divine Power.”

Even someone like the God of Light was unable to foretell anything about this matter, so how could the God of Knowledge, Wall, feel anything?

If Sui Xiong was the only one who felt such a premonition, then it should be nothing to worry about. Sui Xiong knew that his situation was quite unique. He was completely different from the other gods in general, so it was nothing strange for him to be able to do something a little different.

But this premonition originated from Wall, who was just a follower who had recently passed the mark to become a mid-level Divine Power.

The situation was really like what the God of Light had queried. How could Wall have possibly surpassed him in the study of the fields of “fate” and “prophecy?” It was likelier for Wall to be his student in the study of these fields.

Something that he himself could not foretell, what could Wall possibly foresee?

This just did not make any sense!

Thinking about these things, in the face of the God of Light’s composed doubts, the face of the God of Diplomacy, the God of Heroes and the God of Pleasure’s curious gazes, Sui Xiong could only secretly wonder to himself.

(Yes, I know that it doesn’t make sense. But how on earth would I know why? I’m not the one who had that premonition!)
