Chapter 3152: Attitude Shift

Within 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 coordinated calculation mechanism to lock onto the intruders' consciousness information streams.
At this stage, if the intruders could detect 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 was like an ant crawling on a person's skin; that person would not need any extra detection methods, as the mere existence of the ant would be enough for the skin to perceive it.
On the other hand, although the intruders were probing the Computing Power Pool very deeply, the core mechanisms of the Computing Power Pool were ultimately not something those people could understand in a short time.
With the dual advantages combined, 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.

"So now, it is finally your turn!"
But this time Xia Shao's luck was relatively bad. Judging from the position perceived in the Mind Network, the intruders were not within the territory of Penglongchen, which saved him from having to haggle with the Penglongchen side beforehand.
And now, such infrastructure was being utilized by Xia Shao. In just an instant, he felt the reaction of those seven interfaces. Clearly, the intruders corresponding to those seven interfaces had not anticipated this situation.
The remaining fifteen people were also significantly affected, and because there might have been a leader among the four people who had fallen unconscious or died, the fifteen people who still had consciousness were like headless flies, neither fleeing nor busy destroying evidence.
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 gather the interference these Psionic Mages had on Reality.
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.
Instead of standing there foolishly, looking at their fallen companions in a daze, or attempting to rescue them, but the result was waiting for Xia Shao.
……
……
The Xiling Liliang accumulated by nearly 700,000 Northland Mages using the Computing Power Pool over a long period, despite having been consumed several times before, was mostly settled in the Computing Power Pool, becoming the most solid "infrastructure" of the Computing Power Pool.
Such an action began from the very end of the local area network where the intruders were located, moving from far to near, and quickly reached the local area network where the intruders were located.
It was nothing more than an explanation afterward.
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 through 【Keman Knowledge】.
As 【Keman Knowledge】 obtained the final result, 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.
When all preparations were ready, Xia Shao 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.
Thus, the 【Wide-Area Prohibition】 followed closely, quickly 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.
The massive amount of Reality-based Xiling Liliang mobilized by Xia Shao launched a fierce charge toward the interfaces where the intruders were connected to the Computing Power Pool sub-network. No technique was needed; he simply won by sheer quantity.
Of course, what Xia Shao hoped for most was that those intruders had chosen to hide in a place outside of Guangyu Tanjing, so that he would have no scruples and could use all necessary means.
At the same time, in reality, guided by the massive Xiling Liliang, Xia Shao quickly determined the physical locations corresponding to those seven interfaces. Just like before, the position in his Perception was very accurate, but it could not be converted into specific Arcane Magic spatial coordinates; he could only judge a rough direction and distance.
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, explaining afterward would not be difficult.
Very soon, the operation commands Xia Shao had left in the Computing Power Pool network while at the Alliance Headquarters were triggered. A large number of local area networks in units of one hundred were frequently merged and isolated, and during this process, the intruders' consciousness information was continuously separated and sealed.
And all these adjustments regarding the Gateways were carried out in real-time and synchronously, not giving the intruders a single bit of a chance.
So this time it was not just his private action; strictly speaking, it might even be an illegal action. It all depended on whether the actual location of those intruders was within Guangyu Tanjing.
Admittedly, there is a huge difference between Psionic Magic and Arcane Magic, and Keman Knowledge could not detect Psionic, but as long as Xia Shao grasped Reality, that was enough.
Although in the real world this would take a not-so-short process, in the Mind Network, it was just a moment of distraction, and everything had already changed.
As for the Supermagic Event, that was inevitable. Now the countries of the Alliance were dissatisfied with the Supermagic Treaty and had long since started the revision process. Although the process had not been completed yet, no one really took the Supermagic restrictions seriously anymore.
But he was not; he was just an Arcane Mage with slight attainments. However, that did not matter; this time he brought the Thought Robe, which was nothing more than teleporting a few more times.
When he appeared again, he was already in a forest outside the southern border of Guangyu Tanjing. Due to the tight schedule and the need for confidentiality, Xia Shao had not obtained an Entry Action Permit from the Guangyu Tanjing side.
And when to completely prohibit the information flow of the Gateway nodes, isolating the reinforcements of the intruder information flow, to gain a greater advantage.
With the Thought Robe, he could use War Spell to directly pierce through space, forming an effect similar to a Portal. The safety factor increased greatly, and he almost did not need to worry about the various accidents that occur during the process of normal Teleportation Spell.
————It will be later~~
It was somewhat different from the fewer than ten people he had judged before; there were actually 22 people! They were hiding in a natural karst cave, which had undergone complex modifications and could fully be called a secret base.
If Xia Shao were a Psionic Mage, with the positioning of mental perception, he could have directly arrived at the physical location corresponding to those seven interfaces.
And the people who were impacted 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 also fallen into a coma.
Of course, the commotion would also be correspondingly larger and would be discovered by the Northland Alliance Supermagic Event Monitoring and Investigation Department, and an explanation would be indispensable afterward.
