Chapter 3151: One Net, One Nest

Inside the Computing Power Pool network.

Having obtained full Permission Level, Xia Duo immediately began the net-closing operation; he first used the Computing Power Pool's coordination and calculation mechanism to lock onto the intruders' consciousness information streams.

Up to this step, if the intruders could discover Xia Duo's actions and immediately disconnect, they could actually still avoid being located, but Xia Duo was using the Computing Power Pool's Perception for passive locking.

It is just like an ant crawling on a person's skin; that person does not need any extra detection methods at all, as the mere existence of the ant is enough to be sensed by the skin.

On the other hand, although the intruders were probing the Computing Power Pool very deeply, the core mechanism of the Computing Power Pool was ultimately not something those people could understand in a short time.

With the dual advantages superimposed, until Xia Duo had completely locked onto all abnormal information streams, those intruders remained completely unaware, still continuing to spread and permeate into other Sub-networks.

Doing so instead dispersed their strength, giving Xia Duo the opportunity to defeat them one by one.

Next, Xia Duo used the external assistance of the intellectual brain to quickly calculate the deployment plan for the Computing Power Pool's Xiling Liliang; specifically, when to temporarily open which Gateway restrictions and merge networks to gain more of a Xiling Liliang advantage.

And when to completely prohibit information flow at Gateway Nodes, cutting off the reinforcements for the invading information streams, to gain an even greater advantage.

Furthermore, all these adjustments regarding the Gateways were carried out in real-time and synchronously, not giving the intruders even the slightest chance.

When he appeared again, it was in a forest outside the southern border of Guangyutan. Due to the urgency of time and the need for secrecy, Xia Shao had not obtained an Entry Action Permit from Guangyutan.

The massive amount of Reality-is-Void Xiling Liliang mobilized by Xia Shao launched a fierce charge at the interface where the intruders connected to the Computing Power Pool Sub-network; it required no technique, winning purely by quantity.

But he was not; he was just an Arcane Mage with some accomplishments. However, that did not matter; this time he brought the Thought Robe, which was nothing more than teleporting a few more times.

Although it seemed like a not-so-short process in the real world, in the Mind Network, it was just a moment of distraction, and everything had already changed.

Thus, the 【Wide-Area Prohibition】 followed closely, rapidly separating the space where those 22 people were located. This step was not to prevent those intruders from contacting each other, because the Wide-Area Prohibition could not isolate mental contact, let alone Psionic.

As the 【Keman Arcane Perception】 obtained accurate results, not only the location information, but also whether those intruders were carrying any Magic Item, and whether there was any Magic Protection at their location, were all known to Xia Shao one by one.

But Xia Shao was luckier this time; judging from the location sensed from the Mind Network, the intruders were not within the territory of Guangyutan, which saved him from having to haggle with the Guangyutan side afterwards.

With the Thought Robe, he could use War Spell to directly pierce through space, forming an effect similar to a Portal. The success rate increased greatly, and he almost did not need to worry about the various accidents that occur during the process of abnormal Teleportation Spell.

The reason for doing so was, on one hand, indeed out of habit; dividing the battlefield to fight many with few was Xia Shao's most commonly used combat philosophy. But on the other hand, doing so was actually to isolate the interference of those Psionic Mages on reality.

If Xia Shao were a Psionic Mage, with the positioning of mental perception, he could have arrived directly at the real locations corresponding to those five interfaces.

When all preparations were ready, Xia Duo took a deep breath. At this step, the intruders had already lost their last chance to escape; even if they disconnected immediately now, their physical location would still be exposed.

And the people who were hit by the accumulated Xiling Liliang of the Computing Power Pool were, as Xia Shao judged correctly, indeed more than ten. Two of them had already lost signs of life, and the other three had fallen into a coma.

Instead of standing there foolishly, looking at their fallen companions at a loss, or attempting to rescue them, they waited for Xia Shao.

Of course, Xia Shao most hoped that those intruders had chosen a place outside the Guangyutan territory to hide, so that he would have no scruples and could use all necessary means.

Very quickly, the operation commands Xia Shao left in the Computing Power Pool network while at the Alliance Headquarters were triggered. A large number of regional networks in units of one hundred began to frequently merge and isolate, and in this process, the consciousness information of the intruders was continuously separated and sealed.

At the same time, in reality, guided by the massive Xiling Liliang, Xia Shao quickly determined the real locations corresponding to those five interfaces. Just like before, the location was very clear in his perception, but it could not be converted into specific Arcane Magic spatial coordinates; he could only judge a general direction and distance.

Of course, the commotion would also be correspondingly larger, and it would be discovered by the Northland Alliance Supermagic Event Monitoring and Investigation Department, so an explanation would be inevitable afterwards.

The remaining seventeen people were also affected to no small degree, and because perhaps the leader of this group was among the four who were comatose or dead, the seventeen people who still had consciousness were like headless flies, neither fleeing nor busy destroying evidence.

And now, such infrastructure was being utilized by Xia Shao. In just an instant, he felt the clarity of those five interfaces. Clearly, the intruders corresponding to those five interfaces had not anticipated this situation.

"So now, it is finally my turn!"

As for the Supermagic Event, that was unavoidable. Now the countries of the Alliance were all dissatisfied with the Supermagic Treaty and had long ago started the revision process. Although the process had not yet been completed, no one really took the Supermagic restrictions seriously anymore.

It was somewhat different from his previous judgment of fewer than ten people; there were actually 22! They were hiding in a natural limestone cave, and after simple modifications, it was fully worthy of being called a secret base.

It was nothing more than an explanation afterwards.

Such actions started from the very end of the regional network where the intruders were located, moving from far to near, and quickly reached the regional network where the intruders were.

So this time it was not just his private action; strictly speaking, it might even be an illegal action. It all depended on whether those intruders were actually within the Guangyutan territory.

The Xiling Liliang accumulated by nearly two hundred thousand Northland Mages using the Computing Power Pool over a long period, although it had been consumed several times before, the vast majority was still deposited in the Computing Power Pool, becoming the most solid "infrastructure" of the Computing Power Pool.

It is true that there are huge differences between Psionic Magic and Arcane Magic, and Keman Arcane Perception could not detect Psionic, but Xia Shao only needed to grasp reality.

……

……

After two teleports, Xia Shao was already very close to the intruders' location, and only then did he truly lock onto the physical location of this group of people through 【Keman Arcane Perception】.

If it were like last time, then an illegal entry would be unavoidable. This was also inevitable; as long as he could catch the people, an explanation afterwards would not be difficult.

Xia Shao took out the Thought Robe in the form of Starlight Gloves and put it on his hands. The Arcane Fire also automatically expanded and docked with the Thought Robe. The next moment, Xia Shao's figure disappeared from the office.
