Arcane Lord

This is only possible unless the two parties are no longer in a competitive relationship, or at least in a determinable healthy competitive relationship, and neither will be hostile in the foreseeable future.

As for such major events related to the future of the alliance as a whole, Xia Duo alone has no say, but in his heart, he still hopes that the computing power pool will be open to Kalishan.

After all, in his plan for the future, the alliance cannot just be a regional alliance limited to the North, but must become an alliance across the entire main plane.

So in front of Tarafu, Shado mentioned his point of view more directly, but also reminded the other party:

"We still need to convince all countries to agree to this matter. In addition, there are some technical issues that require Calimshan to be honest enough."

With Shado's statement, Talaf was immediately overjoyed. At the same time, he also revealed the truth to Shado: "There is absolutely no problem with the technical matters. As long as Shado needs you, Calimshan can send a batch at any time." Scholars come to the North to cooperate in research.”

"Then there is no problem on my side. If you really want to fully introduce a computing power pool, then you can find a way to lobby representatives from various countries!"

Shado didn't mention Kalishan joining the alliance. Although the current alliance has shown strong development potential, it is still a little far away from being able to accept Kalishan.

And with Calimshan's size and strength, joining the alliance now is not a good thing for the alliance.

According to Shado's plan, the Northland Alliance needs to first include all of Northland and the surrounding areas. In the process, the order and vision of the alliance must be well implemented, and then it can expand outwards as a relatively strict whole.

At that time, it would not only become feasible to accept new members from outside the Northland, but also imperative, because that was a key step for the Northland Alliance to truly move towards a plane alliance.

It's too early to say this now, and Shado doesn't want Calimshan and other countries outside the North to be too vigilant and defensive about the Alliance.

Of course, the general trend is actually very obvious. After the alliance integrates internally, it will inevitably develop outwards. It is nothing more than direct land occupation, but other aspects of influence will still have an almost aggressive effect.

For example, the cheap magic weapons rolled out by the alliance are sweeping the magic weapon markets of other countries. Before entering the markets of other countries, the alliance must sign corresponding trade agreements with each other.

In this case, other countries may not be able to anticipate the alliance's dumping behavior in advance, and the trade agreement will most likely not mention it. After all, there is no such thing as dumping in the North or elsewhere.

But once it occurs, it will inevitably trigger a huge conflict. It may not be a direct act of war, but it is still bloody enough.

Even then, the alliance may not take the initiative to provoke a war because other countries oppose dumping. This is an expansion trend that will inevitably occur when an organization is mature and strong to a certain extent.

Unless this trend is interrupted by a more powerful force, no one can stop it from within, including Xia Duo.

The only thing he can do is to improve the system and vision of the alliance as much as possible before it develops into madness, and to constrain its future expansion trend in the appropriate direction.

This process is actually a process of strengthening the alliance. Constraint and strengthening exist at the same time. To a certain extent, they are even symbiotic. No matter which one of the two sides loses, it will lead to a pessimistic ending.

In order to guide the development of this behemoth alliance, Xia Duo will first verify his ideas and models for civilization development in Daxia Territory and Netheril. In the process, he will gradually increase his voice in the alliance.

Eventually a transition from local to alliance leadership identity was achieved.

…

Victory Valley.

Xia Duo and Tarafu walked and chatted, and soon took a tour of the entire camp. Of course, Xia Duo was not so idle. He was waiting for a result. At this moment, he was deeply inspecting the earth elements in the cracks in the Underdark underground. The result of Lord Uta.

As long as the core ritual of the Illuminati can be determined, the alliance can sound the clarion call for counterattack, and he will be the absolute main attacker to take the lead in attacking.

"By the way, you said last time that the Wind-Chasing War has begun. I wonder how the Mairead family will gain?"

"The time span of Calimshan's Windchasing Wars has never been less than a hundred years. It has just begun. There is no gain, but a lot of losses."

"Oh? What do you mean?" Xia Duo asked curiously.

He had previously promised the Mairead family to participate in the Zhufeng War by tomorrow July at the latest, so he was quite concerned about the details of the Zhufeng War.

"Currently, Calimshan has built a prototype of a large-scale fortress in that plane. It has not been fully completed yet! Because the movement in the plane passage is too big, it has attracted the attention of many wind element lords there. Now, almost every day there will be a fight. field."

Speaking of this, although Tarafu's tone was a little unhappy, his expression seemed particularly excited. Thinking that this was the pleasure brought by the so-called war of conquest, he told Xia Duo:

"My brother is currently there. He has led the elemental army that the family has trained for many years. He has gone through many battles. Although he has suffered a lot of losses, he has also built up the family's reputation. The Mairead family has not declined."

"Is the elemental army what I thought?" Xia Duo asked again.

"It should be about the same. It is an elemental army with wind element elders as the backbone and ordinary elements as soldiers. Such a combination can fight against the local wind element lords in the wind element plane, but it is not good enough in the main plane. The war in the main plane still depends on war spells."

Just a few years ago, Calimshan was still fighting with Zhamdas. Although it was a low-intensity consumption at the end of the war, compared with the relatively more peaceful North, Calimshan people still have more say in war.

"Then why didn't you use war spells during the Wind Chasing War? Wouldn't it be more efficient?"

"No, this is a bloody lesson from Calimshan in the past." Tarafu hesitated for a moment, but he didn't plan to hide it from Shado.

After all, Shado will participate in the Wind Chasing War at the latest next year, and these questions will still need to be answered at that time. Talking about it in advance can also allow Shado to prepare in advance.

"When Karinshan first discovered the large wind elemental plane, she had no experience in conquering such a large plane. She thought it was just like those small and medium-sized planes, which could be conquered at will.

"The result was naturally a big setback. Many families lost their inheritance because of this. The reason is very simple, because there must be a nearly civilized elemental alliance composed of multiple wind elemental lords in the large plane.

"Once war spells are used, they may have an advantage in a short period of time, but once the time is extended, those wind elemental lords who are not weaker than human spellcasters or even higher in essence will begin to imitate and create their war spells.

"War spells are not higher than ordinary spells in essence, they are just an improvement in energy level. For natural elemental creatures, it is very simple to develop such spells.

"Many times, they cannot be developed just because there is no such concept. As long as it is seen, it will inevitably inspire it to develop similar spells." (End of this chapter)
