Arcane Lord

Previous prophecies have shown many future scenarios of all-out war. Xia Duo believes that the only uncertain factor in the North is the demon race, which may lead to war.

But he still couldn't figure out how to cause the war. Anyway, it was impossible to directly control the leaders of various countries, but with their deep penetration, it might not be impossible to transfer water vapor through Netheril.

As long as the water vapor migration process is interrupted and it causes a natural disaster, if the intention is more sinister, you can also use spells to increase the destructiveness. In this case, it seems that Netheril has made the public angry.

It's hard to say that this won't be the trigger for all-out war.

Although even if there were any major accidents in the Netheril water vapor migration plan, the current tacit understanding between the countries in the North would not intensify the conflict to that extent, but this would not be able to withstand the demonic instigation.

As long as something happens again in Netheril, even if the two sides want to sit down and talk, they may not be in a good mood.

Due to various considerations, Xia Duo finally decided that the water vapor migration route should not pass through the northern countries. Of course, it is also possible that his current behavior led to a full-scale war.

But there was nothing he could do about it. The prophecy spell was not omnipotent and could not be fully trusted. He could only make a relatively more reasonable decision based on the currently known information.

If this decision ultimately leads to unfavorable consequences, it can only be said that the occurrence of such consequences is far beyond Xia Duo's control.

War is bound to be the product of conflicts that are intensified to the point of being difficult to reconcile. It has little to do with a specific matter. If you want to avoid war, you must try your best to reconcile the relationships, or interests, between the countries in the Northern Alliance. .

As long as the benefits of cooperation are greater than the benefits of war, there is a high probability that war will not start.

This is actually the situation at the moment, but there is an additional element of uncertainty about the devil. As long as all countries maintain close communication, enhance mutual trust, and properly handle differences, there will be no major miscalculations or war.

The Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory jointly established by various countries has made a good start, and it will be enough to continue to deepen exchanges. This is actually what Xia Duo hopes to see.

…

After talking to Tarafu, Shado continued his previous research on the automation of spirits, while also waiting for news from Severton.

No matter what the outcome of the negotiations between Seven Towers and the South is, the water vapor migration plan itself will not change. It is nothing more than where to move the water vapor.

However, if the negotiation fails and the water vapor is moved to the Narrow Sea or the North Pole, Shado will only remember the Mairead family's favor.

Xia Duo is not shy about owed favors to others. As long as he is able to repay and adheres to the bottom line, then this is a normal relationship. Just one or two favors are not enough to exchange for Mythra from him.

If Calimshan is really willing to pay a huge price, it is actually not impossible to sell Mythra to them, for example, come up with a habitable plane, or a more advanced method of plane exploration.

Or, Xia Duo considers the etheric layer navigation technology to be strategic-level resources or technologies.

Others, such as elemental breeding, are also important enough, but they are not very strategic. The main reason is that the threshold is not high enough and it needs to be coordinated with the automation of the essence.

As for Jingso Automation, Calimshan herself has not yet matured, and Shado has now begun related research, and it is a universal version that is more suitable for the Nese magic system. The two parties can be said to be on the same starting line.

It's just that Calimshan ran a few steps ahead of schedule, and the qualitative gap has not yet opened up.

…

Just when Sha Duo got into the laboratory to continue the previously interrupted research, Kalishan had already left the floating city and returned to the Yunding Palace parked high in the south of Daxia Territory.

In the conversation just now, Shado talked to him about the dilemma of the floating city, and Tarafu said that he could solve it. It happened that the preparations for the water vapor migration plan in Netheril could also start in advance.

The two are actually the same thing.

Soon, Talaf drove Wind Lord Rohasi to move eastward, stopping almost fifteen miles southeast of the Bactria Territory.

Then, under the command of Tarafu, the wind lord Rohasi spread the area little by little, taking control of the wind elements in a larger area around him.

Of course, in this process, the clouds of matter are also brought under control.

After a while, a hurricane that was still growing was formed. Almost at the same time, the casual crowd in the Daxia Code Square observed the elemental phenomena produced after the sky was annihilated by the [Light of Annihilation], and began to change from disorder to chaos. Gotta be in order.

It was as if a powerful force was attracting them little by little from the southeast. Soon, an unknown wind blew in the square, and the wind was getting bigger and bigger.

Finally, some people couldn't stay any longer, especially some women who were worried about drying clothes at home. They ran home one by one, killing the people around them while running -

"It's windy. I feel like putting on my clothes!"

It wasn't just about collecting clothes. After receiving the news about the strong wind, Leiden immediately realized a bigger problem. Most of the houses used to temporarily house the new residents were prefabricated wooden houses created during the earliest development of the territory.

The biggest feature of this kind of wooden house is that it is easy to manufacture and assemble, but its shortcomings are also obvious. The foundation connected to the ground is not strong, and it is almost only fixed to the ground by four wooden piles.

And because the early technology was relatively backward, the wooden houses themselves were not strong enough. Later, after the territory's brick-making workshops expanded, many people began to think about brick houses, especially those who had been granted land.

At this moment, a strong wind suddenly blew up. There was no need to worry about brick and tile houses. At most, a few tiles might be blown off. The houses themselves were strong enough.

But those temporary resettlement houses were not so lucky. The strong wind might not last long. Maybe the houses and people would be blown away at night.

At this time, Xia Duo walked out of the laboratory again. It was not that he had expected such a scene in advance. Although he had expected it before, he did not expect such a big noise. After all, when Tarafu demonstrated it before, it was just a demonstration. It was impossible to be completely simulated.

He just received the news from Savile and knew the seriousness of this matter. Savile was entrusted by him to help monitor the atmospheric conditions around the Great Xia Territory.

Now this is obviously an abnormal situation, and the strong wind created by the wind lord is enough to have an adverse impact on the Great Xia Territory.

Xia Duo immediately left the floating city and first went to the ground territory for a tour. Now the wind speed on the ground is so high that he feels like a fish in water in such an environment, but other people in the territory are very uncomfortable.

It is almost not stable to walk normally.

This situation is not only for ordinary people, but also for mages, unless there is a targeted wind-proof spell, but not every mage has this spell.

Especially for new mages, who usually have a lot of things to do, how can they have so much time to learn such an unconventional spell.
