Chapter 2618: The Daxia Cloud Pattern Project and New Opportunities for the Void Warehouse

As the target was determined, the timeline that had originally been diffusing in all directions like a spring, filled with near-infinite possibilities, became blurred at this moment, and in the next, it collapsed directly into specific scenes—

That was a dense forest that appeared to have no traces of human intervention, but Xia Duo recognized it; it was clearly the Spice Woodland tended by Elf Druids!

A faint mist drifted through the forest, the center of the field of vision seemed to be covered by a blurry white filter, while the edges of the field of vision emitted a faint, seven-colored light.

Upon seeing this scene, Xia Duo initially thought it was the Ether Mist caused by a Plane Creation experiment accident in the ruins of the Inosen Mage Tower he had discovered near Zhenisi.

But the environment was clearly not that, and furthermore, this mist was distinctly different from the Ether Mist Xia Duo had seen; the Ether Mythallar did not obscure vision, as it existed more on a different visual plane, whereas the mist in the current prophecy scene would obscure vision.

And the most critical point was—the higher it went, the thicker the mist became, until it turned completely into a white fog, thoroughly blocking the view.

Almost subconsciously, such a thought arose in Xia Duo's mind—"Could this be the Mist Event mentioned in the previous prophecy?"

Xia Duo had used a clever method when prophesying before; he had set up an Information Delivery System in Daxia Territory, letting Jieyi periodically release information on major events in the Northland. He was not pre-simulating specific times, but directly prophesying the future state of Daxia Territory.

Then he could see the major events within the Information Delivery System.

And among the small events that might appear in the future, the Mist Event accounted for a large proportion, and Xia Duo had also imagined what the mist that could swallow the Northland Alliance investigators actually looked like.

That was indeed a possibility, and the probability was high.

But before he could think it through, the next scene appeared—

The scene of Yierlansa in ruins that Xia Duo was now prophesying also looked very much like it was caused by a large-scale collapse and disintegration of a Mythallar!

Considering that the clue or object of Xia Duo's prophecy this time was the Ailan Kingdom, the possibility that this series of events was caused by Demon Descendants was indeed high!

Then it was even more likely that it was not an invasion by an external enemy! But some kind of natural phenomenon, that Ailan Kingdom itself had suffered a disaster!

If it were the former, the current him really could not imagine why his future self would attack the capital of Taiweiman; such behavior, no matter how justified it might be, would greatly damage the foundation of the Northland Alliance's existence.

And this way, it could further prove that the possibility of Demon Descendants causing trouble was even greater.

With just one glance, Xia Duo recognized that it was the capital of Taiweiman—the tree-top city Yierlansa, but at this moment, Yierlansa did not look at all like the peaceful and quiet place of the past; the giant trees presented a terrifying scene of ruin.

Elf society already had similar existences; some merchant guilds, after establishing a Void Warehouse, would rent it out to other merchant guilds that could not afford to build a Void Warehouse, in order to obtain higher profits or to share costs.

It is not easy to establish a "Time Stamp" in other places; unless he was willing to reveal the principles of the Time Stamp, who would be willing to let a large amount of unknown information be projected onto their own territory?

"Could it be caused by the Mist Event?" Xia Duo guessed in his heart.

Unless he was tied up by something and truly could not leave, he would definitely be there, and in all likelihood, he would even bring the Floating City along; the new Floating City had just been built and was just lacking an opportunity for a public debut.

Now that he had not appeared, either the enemy was him, or this was not an invasion by an external enemy.

It was just that in the previous prophecy, this event appeared in January of Netheril Calendar 841, while the Mist Event appeared between the Daxia Cultural and Arts Festival and February of the following year, a difference of more than a year.

Some branches were clearly broken due to external force, and at the breaks, violent Element Turbulence was still entwined and raging; it did not look like a natural phenomenon at all, but more like a scene after encountering an invasion by an external enemy.

But now that he was prophesying the Ailan Kingdom, he had seen a phenomenon suspected to be the Mist Event, which really could not help but make him make associations!

He did not expect that in this Prophecy Ritual, he would see a phenomenon suspected to be the Mist Event! But he was using the Ailan Kingdom as a clue this time!

If the Mythallar anomaly event was caused by the Mist Event, then the reaction between the two was too slow, right?

Not to mention Xia Duo, even Iolum might not be able to gain the trust of most people; if it were Kangjienio, perhaps it would be possible, but Xia Duo could not move that person.

In many previous prophecies, more severe climate anomalies would always follow the Mist Event; although it was impossible to prove the causality between the two, at least a certain degree of correlation existed, and multiple prophecies being like this was proof.

In an instant, Xia Duo thought about what to do next; the Void Warehouse did not have high acceptance in Netheril, after all, traditional Netherese Mages mostly only trusted themselves, and the Void Warehouse tested the operator's credibility too much.

Besides this, Xia Duo also remembered one thing, which was that many previous prophecies had mentioned—in January of Netheril Calendar 841, which was January of the year after next, the Mythallars of Taiweiman and Cormanthor would become abnormal, and the Mythallars within their borders would collapse and disintegrate on a large scale.

It was just that the first time only caused the Mist Event, while the second time was the Mythallar anomaly event that had a greater impact and caused greater losses.

Perhaps the Void Warehouse of the Elves in the Main Plane originated from the Family Warehouse of that time, or rather, the Clan Warehouse.

Xia Duo was certain that if Taiweiman suffered an invasion by an external enemy in the future, he would definitely bring the new Floating City to intervene, to maintain the peace and stability of the Northland Alliance; in fact, it was maintaining the environment for his own stable development, and also maintaining his own interests; he absolutely could not ignore it.

The Void Warehouse was not Xia Duo's original creation; the inspiration first came from his experience with the Family Warehouse in 【Projection Plane: Maiyuelita】; the Family Warehouse was a warehouse with multiple Connectors, and family members could share it.

"Could it be that the Mist Event was not because of the Dragon Madness Mythallar, but because of the Demon Descendants?"

However, Xia Duo did think of a roundabout way to achieve this, which was to hide the Cloud Pattern Announcement in advertising "boards" that could be displayed in a legitimate way.

It was just a pity that outside of Daxia Territory, Xia Duo could not establish a "Time Stamp" and could not determine exactly when the prophesied scene was taking place; if it could be determined, then it could be cross-verified with previous prophecies.

At that time, on a giant tree growing on a high cliff, one could see a clear city and buildings situated on large branches, and even on some small branches, there were hidden manors looming.

Not to mention whether he had that ability, even if he did, such behavior would incite the Northland Alliance to unite against a common enemy; the current Northland Alliance tended more towards orderly competition rather than bottomless brawling.

This had already reached the capital; not to mention anything else, at least Xia Duo would go personally to take a look; as long as it was possible, he would intervene.

At that time, his avatar, the little companion of Suo Er, had such a Connector and often took snacks from it to share.

If the Mist Event could lead to climate anomalies, it was actually affecting the Dragon Madness Mythallar, and if the Dragon Madness Mythallar was affected, its manifestation might not be limited to just one form; it could also lead to situations other than climate anomalies!

As long as the advertisements were placed enough, it would be equivalent to completing the full-territory Cloud Pattern Announcement delivery.

But in Elf society, it might not be like that!

Of course, the prophecy did not only involve the two countries of Taiweiman and Cormanthor; other Elf nations might also have such situations, but only those two countries were bound to have them when the Mythallar anomaly event occurred.

Of course, if combined with the previous speculation, that is, the Mist Event might be the work of Demon Descendants, then it might make sense; perhaps they did it once before and were not satisfied, and then came again more than a year later.

But who could reach Yierlansa?
