Chapter 905: Speculations (Part 1)

Sui Xiong first went to the God Kingdom of the Orc God System, the “Endless Field.”

The Orc gods were surprised by his visit but had extended their welcome to him. They could not wrap their minds about this. Why would Sui Xiong come visiting them at this point in time?

After exchanging greetings and making small talk, Sui Xiong said that he needed to discuss something with the “Sky Devourer Canine,” Lefon, in private. Of course, Lefon would not refuse him. Lefon was just as curious and wanted to know exactly what matter it was that could possibly bring the Void Mask, who had originally declared he would take a neutral stand, to visit him.

After the attendant had taken his leave and left the room, Sui Xiong spent a moment on some brief consideration, then in a most straightforward manner, he said, “Theoretically speaking, this war should be a sure-win for the humans while you guys are bound to lose. But for some unknown reason, recently I keep getting this strong premonition and feel that there’s something ominous in store for the future of the humans.

“I’m a man full of curiosity. Though I clearly know that so long as I wait patiently, I will eventually get to know what’s going on exactly, I just can’t help but go around asking and making inquiries. Just what on earth is happening?”

Initially, when Lefon heard Sui Xiong say it was a “sure-win for the humans,” his expression reflected his unhappiness. But thereafter, his anger turned to delight, and he fell into deep thoughts.

As the Master God of the Orcs, naturally, he was the clearest about the balance of power between the two sides. If both parties’ bottom cards were not taken into consideration, just looking at the power on the surface, the humans had at least a 70-percent chance of winning, while the Orcs… most likely not even a 10-percent chance of winning.

After all, other than the “humans’ victory” and the “Orcs’ victory,” there was also a “lose-lose situation” with no winner at all.

Most of the gods felt that the best outcome for the Orcs was nothing more than dragging the humans into a troublesome situation of fighting a war that would have no winner. That was all.

Of course, Lefon was not that pessimistic. Since he dared fight this battle and did not directly arrange for the Orcs to retreat from the Main Plane, it naturally showed that he was still somewhat confident. But even he himself did not have much hope of defeating the humans, let alone fighting the humans to the point where their future would come to no good.

So after listening to Sui Xiong’s words, he could not help but be filled with doubt.

The future of the humans will come to no good? How could their future come to no good? When they already had such a great advantage…?

This was like playing StarCraft, where a combat population of 120 was pitted against another combat population of 80. The huge advantage of the former was unbelievably huge. Right away, it could box up and select everyone in the entire troop. Then casually pointing at its opponent’s base camp, it could put an end to them with just the pressure from one wave of attack.

There was a saying that went, “The flying dragon is already riding above their faces, how is it possible to lose? How could they lose? How is it possible to make them lose?”

Amidst the silence, Sui Xiong was secretly entertaining some wild thoughts. Suddenly, he felt a jolt of surprise in his heart… No, something’s wrong with this allusion!

If he did not remember wrongly, that allusion of a “flying dragon above their faces, how to lose…” seemed like… they really had lost!

At that moment, Lefon finally broke the silence and asked in a low voice, “Why have you thought of asking me? Shouldn’t you be asking the human gods? Ask Wuther, for example.”

“He will not tell me!” Sui Xiong said and shook his head. “Moreover, it’s actually pretty much the same looking for you.”

“Why do you say that?”
