Chapter 218 The second oracle

"We have heard of it outside." Panis said with a wry smile: "The undead received an oracle not long ago, and the gate of death will be opened soon. The undead need to form a large army as soon as possible, and the gate of life will be opened as soon as possible, and the undead will immediately invade the world of the living and build their own fortress. The undead will obey the will of the gods unconditionally. Therefore, a skeleton legion composed of more than 100,000 high-level undead was soon organized. As soon as the gate of death opened, it rushed out of the gate without a moment and stepped into the world of the living."

"This message, as I said just now, was directly fed back to the consciousness of the undead during prayer, so basically all the undead received this message in a short period of time. Even if a few undead had not had time to pray and did not receive the oracle, they would understand the situation from the discussions of the undead around them." Finch sighed and said, "Danakus passed by us, and without our knowledge, he directly conveyed the oracle. We did not even know that.

I knew what happened, so there was no time to react. The undead had no time to express this, and thought we had already agreed to their actions, so several leaders of the skeleton tribe led the gathering of a huge army. You just said more than 100,000 high-level undead? Oh, you underestimated Ms. Neri's appeal too much. Even after strict screening, the undead troops convened reached a scale of 300,000, which means twice as many as you see."

"Hiss..." Panis gritted his teeth and took a breath of air conditioning. It can be imagined that if 300,000 skeleton troops swarmed out of the gate of death, they would definitely touch the bottom line that the creatures could accept. Now the two sides are in a confrontation because the scale of the undead is still within the man-made controllable range of the creatures, so the creatures can maintain the confrontation temporarily. However, if the scale of the undead doubles, it will completely exceed the acceptable range of the creatures. In order to eliminate hidden dangers, the creatures will definitely launch an attack and completely destroy the current fragile peace.

"However, when the troops gathered around the capital, we still discovered something abnormal. We had to come forward and urgently recruit several leaders to inquire." Lucia explained: "That time was very dangerous, and it almost exposed the fact that we did not receive the oracle. Fortunately, the gods deliberately deceived the archbishop and directly conveyed the oracle to believers. It was difficult for us to believe it, so we were confused. However, at this time, we also learned the content of the oracle from the undead. Of course, I don't understand it very much, but Finch said that Danacus had a very dangerous counterattack at this time. If we didn't find it, I'm afraid Neri's plan would be completely destroyed. Is it really that serious?"

"It's really that serious." Catherine nodded vigorously and said, "I told the leaders outside that during the process of the undead's rushing out of the gate of death, there were several conflicts that broke out. Once the conflict broke out, it would definitely lead to a full-scale war. Think about it, the scale is so dangerous now. If more undead troops appear, the consequences will never be optimistic."

"It seems that Finch's decision is not wrong," Lucia said: "Finch asked me to come forward to persuade the leaders, saying that the 300,000 troops were too large and it was a waste. After all, there was no determination in the oracle that the number of troops needed to be sent, so we took advantage of this loophole and cut the number in half. The undead were surprised by our intentions. We only used the excuse that this was the reason why the gods were worried that the large-scale troops would induce war. It was said that this was the supplement of the oracle, and that the dissatisfaction among the undead who were excluded. However, all we could do was cut to half. It was estimated that if we continued to reduce it, it would arouse public suspicion."

"This number is very good." Panis comforted: "It just happened to be stuck on the bottom line of the creatures. If the number is small, it may have a negative effect, so you don't have to feel regretful."

"I calculated based on the strength of creatures a hundred years ago." Finch explained: "Then I think the number of more than 100,000 is still a bit too much, but if you say that, it seems that the combat power of creatures has also grown over the past century."

"Of course, the undead war a hundred years ago was also a stimulation to the creatures." Panis nodded and said, "It was not a bad thing for the forced creatures to unite to fight with the undead. In the past hundred years after the war, communication between various races became more and more frequent, which invisibly promoted the improvement of the fighting power of the creatures and allowed the creatures to deal with the second undead invasion. This is also the only benefit of the last undead war."

"If this happens, we will be relieved." Finch said with relief: "These days we have been worried, fearing that our powerlessness will lead to a disaster. After hearing your words, we can finally have a good night's sleep."

"I'm afraid it's a little early to have a good night's sleep now." Panis shook his head and said, "Otherwise you don't have to fake the second oracle again."

"The second oracle is actually not a fake, it's just a little modified." Finch corrected: "As early as the last time before she lost contact with Ms. Neli, she explained her plan in detail, which mentioned how to gradually contact the creatures after the door of death is opened. At that time, she made it clear that after going out of the door of death, the undead themselves must be restrained. Faced with the temptation of the creatures, they must not take the initiative to attack, otherwise they will lose the opportunity to coexist forever. Therefore, after forcibly reducing the troops by half, we summoned all the leaders, including the leaders who led the team out to build the city, conveyed Ms. Neli's instructions, and clearly stated that this was Ms. Neli's wish. However, we modified the time to inform them that this was the oracle conveyed by Ms. Neli, not the one left over more than a year ago."

"In fact, it must be admitted that the second oracle and Danakus' order are somewhat contradictory." Lucia added: "But the leaders easily accepted it. I think this is related to the fact that I often conveyed Neri's order to them as the Archbishop. They have used to regard my words as Neri's orders and cannot easily doubt them."
