Chapter 50 Foresight
Chapter 50 Foresight
And when this happens, Myra and Mera can deploy the next move of the blocking strategy.
Very simply, Mera directly used [Earth Wall] twice more, creating two walls of earth and rock blocking both sides of the road, causing the assassins who had just stepped on their comrade's corpse to try to jump over to be hit in the face by a wall, slipping and falling into the swamp.
The situation had become completely chaotic, the zombies residing in the swamp were completely agitated, they crawled out from the surface of the swamp in droves, in a moment they had covered part of the road.
At this point, Myra and Mera just need to get out of this mess and leave the job of dealing with the assassins to the Zombies.
Looking back at the image behind her, Mera was probably still daydreaming, but Myra's expression was still wrinkled.
Because now, she had doubts about whether Kain was dead or not.
Before, when she saw the assassins appear but Kain did not, she had already decided in her heart that Kain was dead, the words she said to Mera were just to comfort him.
But having witnessed Kain, even without appearing, being able to predict everything that was about to happen and had happened, to the point that Myra had the illusion that he could see the future.
Would such a person really die a miserable death in front of monsters or assassins?
Suddenly, Mera pulled Myra's hand back.
Because on the road ahead of them, without knowing when, a figure had appeared approaching.
"Is this the enemy?"
Both sisters had this conjecture at the same time, both becoming alert.
But from that dark shadow, a familiar voice rang out.
"It's me."
It was Kain's voice.
At the same time, the figure also raised both hands, indicating that he had no bad intentions.
Hearing the voice, Mera looked happy, while Myra looked doubtful, then breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, Kain is not dead yet.
The three of them met again, and without much words, they quickly moved together. After all, the key was to get through this area quickly.
As for what happened around him, Kain explained it as minimally as possible. He didn't want to add any more burden to his two teammates anyway.
However, there was one question that left Kain silent.
"You can see the future?"
The person who asked the question was Myra, of course she couldn't just ask a blunt question like this but gave speculations and evidence.
Myra's response was a shake of Kain's head.
"What I do looks like a miracle, but it's just that I can distill a lot of useful information. And I put that information together when I need to use it."
"Just like the road we are stepping on, through inferring its size, I can judge that this place has almost cut off the assassins' advantage in numbers, so I told you guys to get here at all costs."
"Another example, do you think that scene of fighting the assassins back then was me seeing the future?"
"No, more accurately, I made the future I predicted happen. Because of my guidance, you and Mera will make it impossible for the assassins to pass by climbing to the top of the wall. In that situation, what would they do? Considering the terrain here, considering the monsters in the swamp, considering the true nature of the assassins, it was easy for me to speculate what they would do next in that situation."
"Collecting, analyzing, and exploiting the information, that's all I need to do."
Kain's answer gave Myra a headache, and Mera had long been delirious.
And compared to "seeing the future", what Kain did surprised Myra even more. It seemed extremely miraculous, but Kain carefully dissected the event bit by bit, causing Myra to now understand that everything was both complicated and simple at the same time.
The simplicity here is the logical relationship, Kain's individual predictions are very normal, like a person who discovers an obstacle in the way will go around it. The complexity here is the variety of information that he needs to collect each time he makes a guess, along with the synthesis of many small guesses that form a cyclical chain to make a big guess.
It can be understood like the game "rock paper scissors".
If you remove one of the three main elements of this game, the result will not change, it will always be the same three outcomes: win, lose or draw. But the number of possibilities and variables that can occur has been greatly reduced.
Thinking backwards, this also means that every time a new element is added, the variables of speculation and events become much larger than you might imagine.
"Kain... you're a fucking genius!"
Myra could only helplessly sigh like that.
Genius.
That was the only word she could use to describe Kain, and sometimes Myra felt very curious, wondering what exactly was inside Kain's brain.
This time, it seemed that Kain's team's bad luck had run its course. With almost no obstacles, the three of them quickly made their way through the swamp area safely.
[Level]: 0
[Ability]:
-[Thunder Magic ? ] 0/1000:

+[Thunder Summon level Max]
+[Thunder Navigation level Max]
-[Enhancement Magic ? ]:

+[Enhancement Tool level 1] 0/12
On the way, Kain killed a few Zombies, but he didn't stay too long so the amount of skill points he earned was still quite small. Still, compared to being able to get out of the swamp area, he would rather gain a few skill points.
"Damn it! If I get out of here, I'm going to take a shower ten times!"
Mera started complaining again, as she spoke, she swayed her clothes as if to express her discomfort with her current state.
"Very soon, our goal will be right before our eyes."
Kain smiled and encouraged Mera, but he didn't understand why Mera suddenly stared at him and then abruptly turned away, causing Kain to be momentarily confused, while Myra secretly laughed on the side, the atmosphere was extremely harmonious.
