Chapter 194: Prophet's Power, Dark Turmoil, and Arms Exhibition
Chapter 194: Prophet's Power, Dark Turmoil, and Arms Exhibition
Among the complex superpowers that can be categorized into different categories, if you were to choose the most incredible one, the ability to predict the future would definitely be one of them.
After all, this ability is too incredible.
So much so that in the old Earth period, superstitious cultures such as metaphysics, gossip, fortune-telling, and feng shui had already emerged.
From the most primitive fortune-telling using tortoise shells to the various modern professions of sorcerers, human beings' obsession and desire for fate are deeply engraved in their genes.
But all the desire to explore actually stems from the fear and confusion of the unknown.
If I could truly know everything and see the future...
That means there is a certain inevitability in this world, and there is some power behind everyone that is driving the prophecy to happen.
But with such power, there is no need to focus on a trivial matter. After all, the energy required to realize the prophecy is even higher than the energy of the entire planet.
With so many living beings and phenomena involved, if even a part of them behaves in a way that deviates from the predicted results, it will cost a huge amount to correct them.
So the prophecy is logically unsound.
Or it is not a 100% inevitable event.
However, after Lin Feng asked this question, Zong Shiyue did not give a clear answer immediately, but asked in return:
"Are you referring to the rumors about the savior, or the ability to predict the future?"
Lin Feng frowned slightly. In essence, these two things should be the same thing.
But since Zong Shiyue asked this, there must be a certain difference.
At the moment, the only one who could be related to him was probably the former, so Lin Feng said:
"Let's talk about the Savior first!"
Zong Shiyue nodded:
"There's a rumor about the Savior Army. I don't know much about it, but it seems to be a final prophecy left by a prophet with the ability to predict the future among the first group of humans to leave the shelter."
"Over time, it became a prophecy, widely spread throughout the wasteland settlements, large and small. It also became a propaganda slogan used by major forces in later generations to attract survivors and establish their rule, proclaiming themselves the savior."
"Actually, this prophecy is both true and false."
"Because of the harsh environment of the wasteland, all living things are exhausted and unable to take root and stabilize. Therefore, leaving behind this prophecy can inspire humanity to move forward."
"After all, as long as there is hope, people can persevere and not be so desperate as to choose to give up."
"As for its authenticity, if we look at it from a long-term perspective, then it must be correct. As long as the human race survives extinction, there will inevitably be a savior, or some other force, who will save the world and break or escape the Three Days of Blazing Curse."
"It's like a monkey on a typewriter, typing away endlessly, and eventually it will produce a book."
"Of course, if humanity becomes extinct, then discussing the possibility of a savior is meaningless."
"So from this perspective, whether the savior really exists is just a matter of probability by exhaustive enumeration."
"If that prophet, in addition to the existence of the savior, also left a detailed description of his characteristics, such as the time of his appearance and salvation, the savior's appearance and physical characteristics, etc."
“Then this issue is still open for discussion.”
"For example, as Wolf King Ao said, the witch gave him a foreboding warning that you, as the one who destroyed the seal of the ruins, triggered the advent of the dark turmoil. You are the child of prophecy."
"This has clear conditions and requirements, and the future may prove this."
After listening to Zong Shiyue's analysis, Lin Feng roughly understood the reason behind it:
"So the existence of the savior is more symbolic than practical, and has no accurate predictive value."
"What about those with the ability to predict the future? You ruled three large underground shelters back then, with tens of millions of survivors under your command. It's impossible that you didn't collect relevant information."
Zong Shiyue smiled:
"Of course there is. Although this ability is extremely rare, it can still be born as long as the number of samples is large enough."
"Furthermore, regarding the ability of prophecy, the Evolution Alliance has set up a special research project. Similar to the Agent Program, it is responsible for in-depth exploration and development of this rare ability."
"From their research, it seems that there are actually quite a few supernatural powers related to prophecy and foresight, and they are all based on special spiritual abilities."
"For example, they discovered that during the secondary awakening of psychic perception, the ability to foresee danger often develops. This means that within a certain range of space, one can sense approaching danger as if by premonition."
"This ability also belongs to the prophet, but it is far less powerful than those prophets."
"Some do have prophetic abilities and can predict upcoming events through calculations. However, the longer the time span of these events, the more biased their conclusions become, and the descriptions become increasingly vague and inaccurate."
"The so-called prophetic ability isn't actually very useful, but it can be very helpful in dealing with some recent events."
At this point, Zong Shiyue sighed:
"This is the truth about prophetic power."
"And the so-called saviors or children of prophecy are not ordinary evolvers at all. They are not able to deduce and foresee. Only they have been promoted to the third-level kings, and can they glimpse some of the future."
"The only one who truly knows everything can be a True God above the third level!"
"Those false gods who rely on the law of shepherding to inflate themselves can only foresee the forces they control. Only by ruling the world can a god with global knowledge be born."
Zong Shiyue's firm tone and disdainful expression made Lin Feng realize the ability of prophecy, that's all.
It's not that magical.
They still follow objective laws, based on existing information, based on the past and present, to deduce what may happen in the future.
If this is the case, the witch who gave the definite predicted result might be a third-level king among the beastmen, or a being who is about to break through the third level and has already touched the level of a god.
Then, through deduction of the orcs, he confirmed his identity as the son of prophecy and that he would become the terminator of this catastrophe in the future.
In fact, the reason why Lin Feng mentioned this matter was not only because he was confused about the mysterious prophecy, but also because he was worried about being exposed.
You know, he carries many secrets.
Whether it is the identity of the Immortal Evolution or the existence of the system that can upgrade items, these are things that cannot be exposed.
If due to some special events, he was noticed by the big shots in the wasteland in advance, it would be very detrimental to Lin Feng's future growth, evolution and development.
And from Zong Shiyue's mouth, we learned that the so-called prophetic ability is not as magical as it is said to be, and those high and mighty kings and gods don't care that much about it.
Especially since his identity can bring a lot of help, such as the Son of Prophecy, it makes Wolf King Ao choose to cooperate and place a heavy bet on Lin Feng.
However, some identities will bring endless troubles if they appear in advance.
For example, the legend of the savior that has been passed down for thousands of years.
Once Lin Feng wants to use it to take advantage of others, he must be prepared to be retaliated against.
By then, he would either be able to achieve transcendence and be promoted to a god above the third level, or he would have to face the situation of being besieged by all the top forces and being directly crushed to ashes.
After learning about the ability of prediction, Lin Feng prepared to get up and leave.
Before leaving, Zong Shiyue suddenly thought of something:
"What Wolf King Ao said was correct."
"I didn't single-handedly start the dark turmoil. I merely served as a catalyst for this catastrophe that swept across the wasteland. You don't need to worry about lifting the seal."
"The fundamental reason for the catastrophe is that these gods who have embarked on the path of shepherds share similar paths and have very limited resources. Therefore, in order to achieve true transcendence, they will inevitably attack and conquer each other."
"When they devour each other, determine the ultimate victor, and end the chaos and conflict, true darkness will descend."
"By then, the entire planet will be shrouded in his shadow. All life will be his livestock, dedicated solely to feeding this god-demon." "As an evolver of the Path of Transcendence, you must also prevent this from happening. Otherwise, when the only god is born, the first thing he will do is capture and devour him to celebrate his ascension to the throne and consolidate his power."
"So, in this dark and turbulent era, you need the assistance of multiple third-level kings to quickly accumulate enough resources to help you achieve transcendence."
"Training a loyal third-level divine dog is a good choice!"
Lin Feng turned sideways to look at Zong Shiyue and nodded.
Because of the appearance of Wolf King Ao, after ending the episode of the third-level flesh and blood, Lin Feng went to the original dormitory car.
Ever since Ding Yi, Liu Qian and A Ming returned first, the magic dog has been living with them in the dormitory car.
It's quite spacious inside, with enough space under the bed for it to sleep peacefully.
The divine dog reacted to Lin Feng's arrival through the iron door of the car. It smelled the familiar scent of its master, woke up from its deep sleep, and came to the car door wagging its tail to greet Lin Feng.
When Lin Feng officially appeared in front of it, the divine dog felt the pressure from the second-level evolver and immediately prostrated itself on the ground to show its submission.
Or roll over and expose your belly.
Show your most vulnerable side.
In canines, this means loyalty.
Lin Feng restrained his breath, bent down and touched the beautiful gray fur on the divine dog. It inherited the genes of its parents, with gray fur mixed with white, and the coat color of a meteorite Border Collie.
Now it has also reached the late stage of enhancement, to be precise, the seventh level of enhancement, and is in the transition period from youth to adulthood. Its body has reached two meters in length, and it is about three meters long including the tail, just like the tigers of the old times.
And most importantly, its intelligence level has reached the level of six or seven-year-old humans, which is very similar to Border Collies.
When it evolves into a first-level steppe wolf in the future, its size and intelligence will have a qualitative leap.
At that time, Lin Feng will have to treat it as a family member, otherwise, blindly suppressing and enslaving it will not gain a loyal subordinate.
In particular, it has the potential to be promoted to a third-level king beast.
After playing with the divine dog for a while, Lin Feng took it back to the wolf-armored chariot in the front. From then on, it lived on the battlefield, accompanying Lin Feng in eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping, thus deepening the relationship between the two.
At this moment, the team is developing steadily and in a positive direction.
Amin and Liu Qian produced shells day and night.
A Lian and Ma Chenfeng are training the combat team.
New maintenance workers such as Cheng Wentian, with the assistance of later personnel, are repairing tanks and heavy-duty trucks and replacing old parts.
Ding Yi conducted experiments in her biological experiment vehicle on invaders that were slightly deformed after being exposed to the Wolf King's radiation and summarized the conclusions.
Lin Feng was lying on the back seat of the chariot, with the divine dog lying beside him.
That's how I slept that night.
The next morning, when Lin Feng woke up, Chen Shanshan was sitting in the driver's seat, her eyes blurry and her face tired.
Having just been promoted to a second-level evolver, although his physical condition can be replenished by eating level 20 evolutionary meat, his mental overdraft can only be restored by sleep and rest.
During this period, a large amount of dark domain was released during the experiment, and an actual combat operation was carried out, which consumed a lot of mental attributes, so that after enduring more than ten hours day and night, he looked very tired.
Lin Feng patted Chen Shanshan on the shoulder and motioned her to go back to the back row to rest.
After the tank starts the lowest gear cruise mode, it will go straight on Oasis Avenue. It is not a big problem if no one is driving for ten minutes, but someone has to keep an eye on it.
The life is not tiring, but it is quite exhausting.
After arranging for Chen Shanshan to rest, Lin Feng called Ding Yi to take over the main driver's seat to prevent the leading tank and the entire team from making mistakes.
Today they are an important force in deterring the enemy.
It is also the cornerstone for protecting Shengquan Village.
Countless pairs of eyes are staring at them, trying to test their strength and not allowing any mistakes to occur.
After feeding the divine dog ten kilograms of enhanced meat, Lin Feng left the wolf armored vehicle and came to the ammunition production carriage.
Liu Qian and Amin had already packed forty boxes of ammunition, each box containing fifty grenades, for a total of two thousand grenades.
The agreed transaction location is still in Shuguang Village.
The main reason is that the Li family does not want the transaction between the two hostile parties to be too ostentatious, especially if it is known to their own people, otherwise they will inevitably think too much.
According to the previous lineup, Lin Feng called A Lian and Ma Chenfeng again, and took two combat teams of ten people, driving three tanks and one transport vehicle to Shuguang Village.
The handover process went very smoothly.
Li Mingquan did not come in person, but sent two first-stage late evolvers, both of whom were high-ranking members of the Li family, to preside over this transaction worth 400,000 points.
As boxes of shells were inspected and sent into the Li family's transport vehicle, Lin Feng also received three large boxes.
And it’s a cooler that needs to be charged.
There are a total of seventy level ten, thirty level fourteen, and ten level seventeen first-level evolution agents stored inside.
Worth 300,000 points, it accounts for the absolute majority of this transaction.
After the verification and transaction of the forty wooden boxes full of grenades were completed, the Li family and others also unloaded bundles of evolved meat from another transport truck.
A total of six tons of enhanced meat and one ton of initial evolution meat, worth 100,000 points.
One ton of evolutionary meat is all level ten, and some are level eleven or twelve. In short, it can fully satisfy the needs of the initial evolvers who have just been promoted.
Paired with level nine enhanced meat, it can last even longer.
There is no need to worry too much about the team's food for the next six months, unless there is a need to expand the team.
After completing the transaction, both parties waved goodbye.
They dispersed casually towards their own camps.
Before leaving, Lin Feng specially invited two senior executives of the Li family to come to the Gobi Desert on the right side of the avenue in the afternoon to observe his weapons experiments.
At the same time, everyone in Shuguang Village was also invited.
In addition, Lin Feng invited almost all the top leaders of all the forces in the major villages under the Oasis battleship.
By then, in addition to their own artillery, there were also experiments with grenades and empowered grenades.
The former is used to demonstrate military power and deter villains.
The latter demonstrates the power and effect in order to sell arms.
In Lin Feng's opinion, the latter is obviously more important.
After all, there is no point in completing various tasks and commissions, and selling shells and ammunition is the only way to make money!
Evolution agents and evolution meat worth four hundred thousand can be exchanged for just ten hours of production!
It's a huge profit!
