Divination is a special form of magic among many branches of magic, because wizards can systematically study astrological divination, also known as astrology.
Low-level divination can calculate good and bad luck, middle-level divination can see the future, and high-level divination can know one's fate.
During her peak period, Emily had already reached the threshold of high-level divination. She figured out that the world she was in was not real, and the God of Destruction was not trying to destroy the world. He was just rebooting the order of the world.
After completing his mission, the god would go to a more real world, the true world where the creator resides.
Emily's desire to explore the unknown made her give up everything and follow the God of Destruction to Earth.
Truth conquers all. The only thing the elves want is knowledge. For this, she willingly lowers her arrogant head and becomes a servant of her creator, just to explore a new world.
From Velley, Emily learned a lot about the God of Destruction, so she knows more about the association's president than other members of the association. Even Josiah, a senior member, may not surpass her.
...
After the association obtained first-hand information about the demon, everyone analyzed and evaluated its abilities and the level of threat it posed.
The demon can use "energy beams" to accurately attack targets at a speed several times faster than the speed of sound, with a long attack range. According to Josiah's analysis, the demon can kill people from a distance of tens of thousands of meters.
The demon can create a "shell" with the energy inside its body to protect itself, and conventional heat weapons cannot harm it.
The demon has the ability to reproduce and can split into independent individuals with the same abilities as the original. The duplicate is just as powerful as the main body.
As for whether the demon's duplicate belongs to the author, whether it shares the same "account" as the main body or creates a "new account," these are information blind spots for the association.
Although the demon is highly threatening, in the analysis of everyone, it does not have an advantage when facing the God of Destruction.
Firstly, the demon is extremely dependent on energy and energy is its life. It is not good at prolonged battles.
Secondly, the demon is difficult to win in long-range combat. The attack range of the God of Destruction is even longer than that of the demon, to what extent? As long as the conditions are right, the God of Destruction can instantly destroy Pluto on the edge of the solar system.
He can ignore the iron rule of the speed of light and cause damage to anything that can be perceived.
Finally, if the demon wants to defeat the God of Destruction with an infinite number of duplicates, it is impossible, as quantity has no meaning in front of him.
Its only hope is to rely on Horror Novel Web, using the author's war mode to confront the association, but the president does not want to give it this opportunity – he wants to immediately go to Boston and directly destroy Xu Fang, the demon who has betrayed the association.
"Emily, please divine the outcome if the association immediately attacks Xu Fang."
All the members in the meeting room gathered, with Velley speaking to the elf in the center.
"Alright, Lord Velley."
Emily took out the tarot cards and laid them out on the table.
If the magic power of The Desolate Spirit Continent is like a deep well, then Earth is a dry desert.
Emily can only use the magic power stored in her body to cast spells, and cannot rely on external magic power.
Although Emily has adapted to this "silence" feeling, the feeling of weakness after every divination still makes her at a loss, especially when the future she divines is complicated – this is also why she cannot divine the future of the association's whereabouts.
Even so, her divination still has great strategic significance, because she can divine the "permissions issues" of Horror Novel Web.
There are some questions that Horror Novel Web won't answer, but if she uses divination, she can easily get the answers.
Elf casting magic...
[Divination, should we immediately go to Boston and destroy Xu Fang?]【Divination...】
Thump.
Emily seemed to hear the sound of her own heartbeat.
Thump, thump...
She felt dizzy and her vision went black.
This was a sign of magic backlash!
Oh no, she had to stop!
"What's wrong, Miss Elf? You look pale," Anri asked curiously, seeing Emily's vacant expression.
"I'm fine."
She stopped the divination, held her chest, took a deep breath and then looked at the president, her expression grave. "Lord Velley, the results of the divination are not very optimistic."
"Are we going to fail?" Velley frowned. "Can you see the specific results through divination?"
"Sir, I can forcibly see the results, but it will harm my body. I don't have enough magic power to protect my mind... I can tell you that going to Boston is very dangerous. Do you want me to take a closer look at the results?"
"Forget it, there's no need to harm your body for this. We need to change our plan," Velley shook his head.
"No way? Lord Josiah has an item that can bring people back to life. Even if someone dies among us, they'll be resurrected at the base, and the demons can't kill us," Nagi exclaimed incredulously.
"But if you get killed again within the cooling time, you won't be able to resurrect," Josiah said in a deep voice. "Demons have the ability to do that, don't forget they can duplicate."
"But the duplicates can also be captured by the controller," Gerut pointed at the two orange cursors on the notebook screen. "There are already two demons on the map, which means it has already split once."
"Something's not right," Velley squinted his eyes, interlacing his ten fingers under his chin. "The demon may have split more than once. We can't rely solely on the controller's observations."
"That's odd indeed," Kana whispered. "If the demons can split, why do they only split once? Wouldn't it be better to have more of them?"
"Maybe demons are like pandas and have a slow reproduction speed?" Anri made a joking remark.
"From now on, everyone should be on high alert," Velley said calmly. "Perhaps Xu Fang already knows how to escape from the controller's grasp. There's a high possibility of that, at least Xu Fang still has a card that can threaten the association."
"Thank goodness the association has a member like Miss Emily who can foresee the future..." others expressed their gratitude.
Perhaps initially, the association members had underestimated Xu Fang, but now no one had such a ridiculous idea because the president valued the enemy more than anyone else.
"Lord Velley, what should we do with those two newcomers?" Molan asked listlessly. "Today, Jintae Che is no longer interested in playing games. He has been constantly asking about the whereabouts of the other newcomers, and it seems he has other thoughts."
Currently, the association had two newcomers: Ban Ya from Thailand and Jintae Che from Neon. Since the desertion of Rengatsu and others, their information had been blocked by the association and they were confined to the base. But as time passed, Jintae Che started to feel restless. He hadn't seen the other newcomers for days, and the only person he had seen was Molan, who played games with him.
Although Jintae Che was an otaku and staying home for ten days or half a month without contact with others was not a problem, the association environment was too unfamiliar and he couldn't consider it as his own home.
"Hahaha, Molan, you can't spoil the newcomers. Look at the Thai person under my care, how obedient he is now. He has become completely my slave," Anri said with a smirk.
Molan pouted discontentedly. "Damn it, it's definitely because I mocked Jintae Che too much when he played poorly. Now he hates me."
"When people have nothing to do, they will start to overthink," Velley said. "Let the newcomers start working and continue to perfect the setting of God of Destruction. I will send them the script."
"But if the newcomers update the content of The Desolate Spirit Continent, Xu Fang and others will be able to see it on that website. Will they find out that we are continuing with the God Descending Plan...?" Josiah expressed concern."Don't worry, the plan is in its final stage. Even if they take this opportunity to spread the news, God won't care. In the face of absolute power, any tricks are useless."
"Sir, are you saying..."
"The association no longer needs to keep a low profile. It's time for us to step up and change the world."
"Is there a possibility of Xu Fang becoming an ally?"
"The demon is too dangerous. Keeping it alive will eventually harm humanity. It's better to kill it." Velley smiled and said, "After all, the association is fighting for a better future for humanity. Not everyone has our noble aspirations. The website, the All-Seeing Eye, and the demon are all the same... any potential threat to humanity must be eliminated!"
"Understood, sir."
With the God Descending Plan starting again, the only two new members became busy. The rest of the association members were also busy collecting information on the enemy using various methods. In the afternoon, Kana made a major discovery.
"Sir Velley, this is a video just released by the X website in China. Hei Zerengatsu and Ma Youcai both appear in these videos, and the other girl who is like a puppet is possibly the demon."
After watching the three videos, some people looked confused, while others seemed lost in thought.
"What is Xu Fang doing during this time? Does he want to become an idol?" Nagi asked in confusion.
"They indeed want to become idols." Velley chuckled. "Xu Fang guessed it so quickly, knowing to use existence power as a shield."
As Nagi was a new member and had limited knowledge of the God of Destruction, the other veteran members also knew very little about the weaknesses of the god. Only the elf understood what the president meant.
"Why do they want to become famous? And what exactly is existence power?" Nagi asked on behalf of everyone.
"The term existence power comes from that website, and human science has a similar definition for it - entropy. Generally speaking, the greater the existence power, the lower the entropy. The reason why the world doesn't reject the God of Destruction excessively is because God exists within the system of the world's rules. Of course, God can also break the rules."
"So the 'destruction' of the God of Destruction is just to cause the maximum entropy of an object in a short period of time?" Nagi realized. "But does becoming an idol actually lower entropy?"
"Yes." Velley said, "The higher the probability of a specific piece of information about a person, the lower the information entropy, and the more attention that person attracts. Xu Fang's strategy is to become famous and significantly lower his information entropy, creating resistance to the entropy increase caused by the God of Destruction. And judging from his actions, it seems like he wants to promote himself to the whole world. It's interesting, but it also gives me trouble, haha."
The group looked at each other. It was the first time they heard the president scientifically analyze the abilities and weaknesses of the God of Destruction. After a brief surprise, their emotions gradually calmed down.
Being able to openly state their weaknesses without any reservations meant that they must have other more powerful means. Perhaps the God of Destruction had already overcome existence power.
"President, what should our next step be? Should we go on the offensive or defensive?" Asato asked the question that others were concerned about.
"We only need to do three things." Velley smiled:
"First, Xu Fang is able to livestream on ABC Radio Station, so he must have paid off the high-level executives. We need to disrupt his livestream plan."
"Second, we need to control a human force - the K organization is actually an underground force in the United States, and Twisted Strings is their headquarters. Although this organization is as annoying as maggots, they still have some usefulness for now. Let's make the K organization cause some trouble for Xu Fang, and if we can make him reveal his shortcomings, that'll be even better."
"Third, investigate all the people Xu Fang has been in contact with, such as Luo Bing who has had previous contact with Xu Fang, and the people around Luo Bing. Bring them all to me.""Sir, I've checked the information. Luo Bing returned to Huaguo from Boston by plane yesterday," Jelut whispered.
The president said, "Josiah, Xu Fang has protected Luo Bing before? What was his motive?"
"I personally think that he may have seen the conflict between the Luo family and Gust and wanted to use Luo Bing as a springboard to kill Gust and obtain something. Xu Fang is a very rational author. He wouldn't kill recklessly or do meaningless things."
After a moment of contemplation, the president said, "Then, let the K organization capture all the members of the Luo family and transport them to the United States for trial."
