Chapter 3270: Advice from the Envoy of the Law Book
The prophecy technique is similar to the psychic link, and its scope of effect is generally limited to this plane. Sha Duo himself also masters the prophecy technique. He even has limitations in the prophecy technique, not only on a purely technical level, but also on interpretation.
Different prophets may give completely opposite interpretations of the same image; and the same interpretation may also come from two completely different images.
Xia Duo himself is currently limited to superficial interpretation, which is usually said to say what he sees. On a deeper level, he uses the bulletin board system to use a recursive method to read clear reminders from the past to the future.
But doing this will rule out most possibilities of not having a bulletin board. Although the bulletin board will continue to exist unless there are major changes in the main plane, prophecies like this are often used to anticipate major changes in advance. ?
Therefore, Xia Duo's use of prophecy is more to verify a certain exact message, or to cross-check with certain situations that he has already mastered, and cannot fully exert the effect of prophecy.
In this regard, the Illuminati is even better. It actually extends the time-related magic based on prophecy, which can be called a bug.
Shado himself does not quite believe that time-related magic comes from the Elam civilization in a different timeline, but is more inclined to believe that the wise men of the Illuminati integrated certain prophecy results to create this spell, and then used it to shape the new life they wanted. world.
Ever since he knew that the Illuminati was good at prophecy, Xia Duo had never mentioned the secrets related to the Illuminati that had not been made public in the main plane, just because he was worried about being discovered by the Illuminati.
He knew that avoidance of detection spells could interfere with prophecy, but it was only interference and could not completely eliminate the prediction of prophecy. The two were not on the same level at all.
Even if it is really effective, he cannot guarantee that the other person he is talking to will have the same conditions to avoid detection as him. Even if such an influence spreads, it only takes one possibility to be predicted by the prophecy spell.
Therefore, Xia Duocai tried his best to avoid becoming the source of spreading news and blocked it directly from the source. No matter how good his prophecy was, it was impossible to peer into his heart.
But this time, he took Niya to the blue crystal plane. In addition to explaining the real reason for the study tour in the alien plane, he also reminded Niya to keep it secret. Once he returned to the main plane, he could not mention it again, or even hint at it.
…
Blue crystal plane.
In the water as clear as the sky, Xia Duo and Niya stood opposite each other, as if they were in the void. Such an ethereal environment made Niya silent for a while, but the question that should be asked could not escape:
"Why are you suddenly arranging a study trip to another dimension? Can we talk about it now?"
"It's very simple. A major change is about to happen in the main plane, and I am not completely sure that everyone will be safe from disaster, so I can only find a reason to send you all to an alien plane, so that you can avoid the change in the main plane. ”
"What kind of major change made you so unsure?" Niya continued to ask.
"This is not a matter of confidence, but the risk has become so great that I cannot control it. It is wise to actively avoid it."
Then, Shado explained in detail the origin of the demon descendants, the relationship between the demon descendants and the Illuminati, and the ultimate goal of the Illuminati, and finally concluded:
"This time should be the Illuminati's final counterattack. As long as you avoid this time, you won't have to worry about them anymore!"
"What about you? Will you also leave the main plane with us?" Niya asked again.
"I will stay in the main plane for the time being. If possible, I still hope that this matter will end with the failure of the Illuminati rather than the reshaping of the timeline."
"But according to what you said, the Illuminati still has a back-up plan. It's too dangerous for you to stay in the main plane. Can't you just leave and hide together for a while?" Niya couldn't understand what Sha Duo was doing.
Since it has been determined that there is an irresistible risk involved, and Xia Duo himself just said that it is wise to actively avoid it, why did he change his statement?
"People do seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but they also do things and things they don't do. I have no idea of burying myself in the main plane, but after all, this is a world that I have lived in for such a long time, and there are so many intelligent creatures that are familiar or unfamiliar. , I really can’t convince myself to sit back and watch.”
What Sha Duo said is indeed what he really thinks, and it is not that it cannot be explained from a utilitarian point of view, it is because the development of civilization requires a population, and these intelligent life forms in the main plane can be regarded as potential assimilation targets for his future magical civilization. .
Once the Illuminati succeeds, the main plane becomes the territory of Elam. Not to mention that giving up such a large livable plane is unacceptable to Shado. Such a large population suddenly turns into Elam elves that are difficult to assimilate. Enough to be upset.
For someone as close as Niya, Xia Duo would subconsciously beautify himself. Of course, he would not say those reasons that were too utilitarian. Although Niya may think that utilitarianism is better, Xia Duo still insists on using his own principles to make decisions. own words and deeds.
He is here to assimilate and transform the world, rather than be assimilated and transformed by the world.
…
Niya's persuasion was fruitless, and the communication fell into silence. The surrounding ethereal, empty and even empty pure water environment seemed to contribute to such an atmosphere.
In the end, it was Xia Duo who took the initiative to speak: "Don't worry, I'm still somewhat sure of this matter. Even in the worst case scenario, I won't even have a chance to escape. On the contrary, your task will be even heavier.
"Because I am not sure when the Illuminati will take action, I need you to delay as much time as possible and keep everyone in the alien plane. I will notify you when you can return to the main plane."
"I--"
Niya originally wanted to say that she would stay, but Xia Duo blocked her words in advance with the so-called "more important task". After hesitating for a moment, she nodded with difficulty, but also reminded Xia Duo:
"Once the situation develops to an irreversible state, leave immediately without hesitation!"
"I know, don't worry!"
…
Before leaving the azure plane, Shado told Niya: "You don't need to tell your father and Savile about this for the time being, lest they worry too much. Sometimes knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing."
"Well, I understand, I won't tell them."
In fact, Niya herself regretted it. She would not have asked if she had known the truth. At the same time, she also understood Xia Duo's previous thoughts. It was indeed too heavy to let the people she cared about bear such a truth.
…
After returning to the main plane, Shado sent Niya back to the laboratory, but he still couldn't rest for a moment. After asking Leiden, Sami and others about the organization of the study tour in the alien plane, he set out again "Journey", next stop——
The land of glory.
