Chapter 3374: Setting Off for a New Map

————It will be later~~

In the future, if the risk of Astral Plane forces invading due to psionic Mages can be thoroughly resolved, reaching a strategic cooperation with Zhamu Dasi is not impossible.

After all, there are simply too many uses for Spirit Quality materials; Tower Spirits are the most common, but the highest demand is for the Second Generation Communication Magic Device of the Tower of Time. The cheap materials produced by Creation Magic are far inferior in performance to the Twisted Phantom Core.

If mass production of high-grade Spirit Quality materials can be achieved, it would be extremely beneficial for the Tower of Time to expand into the high-end market. The Second Generation Communication Magic Device of the Tower of Time, when placed in Netheril, is indeed considered a luxury item for ordinary people.

But for a Mage, it is actually just so-so, not to mention in the Elf World, where there are no comparable products; if there were, it would probably only be called cheap goods.

Xia Duo certainly hopes that everyone can afford the Second Generation Communication Magic Device of the Tower of Time, so that everyone can be brought onto the communication Mythallar platform of the Tower of Time, but operating a communication Mythallar also requires costs.

Not to mention, he is also thinking about using future profits from this area to subsidize other projects, so it is not that there is no need to make money just because promoting the platform is important. On the contrary, precisely because the core status of the platform is so important, if profitability cannot be guaranteed, it certainly cannot last long.

And the profit from the Communication Magic Tool is just one profit point Xia Duo has thought of; there will be more profit points in the future, and even the reference objects are ready-made.

Although he would not go so far as to learn from the little penguin to assign a level to every user and then charge according to the level, charging for value-added services is an indispensable link.

But can I really grasp such an opportunity? Kandela could not help but ask himself; the Magic Net Strings gathered on the last stone chamber before his eyes were already comparable to a Mythallar core.

Yet I am merely a senior Mage, and although I began to come into contact with Mythallar Knowledge early on due to my background, I still feel mountain-like pressure to solve such an existence alone.

Walking along this path, apart from the Moonshadow Family members who overestimated their own strength and the so-called protection that could be easily broken by summoning Annihilation Light, I have encountered almost no obstacles.

It is just that my bottom line is higher, leaving more basic functions for users that are easier to use.

After all, using a smart brain is also quite energy-consuming. The smart brain is a collection of Xia Shao's Consciousness Copies, but the interaction between them needs to rely on Spellcasting, and the core is Xia Shao's consciousness entity; the more interactions, the more it is equivalent to Xia Shao casting more Spells.

At this moment, Kandela felt extremely strong resentment toward his past self. If he could have learned from Laierlesi of the Laruian family—no, even just learning more from his own elder brother—he would not be so embarrassed at this moment.

Of course, this is under the condition that Xia Shao takes action personally. If he indirectly takes action with the help of a remote Mind Link target, there will be certain variables, but there will be no problem in occupying the upper hand in general.

"Consultant Xia Shao, I—need your help."

Tanzan Peak.

If it can be saved, Xia Shao of course hopes that he will not be too exhausted.

Although the absolute bonus in computing power and inspiration is not as good as the Computing Power Pool, the auxiliary effect in specific Domains is definitely far beyond the Computing Power Pool.

This specific Domain is actually one that Xia Shao has mastered while most other Mages have not, and it does not involve too much pure calculation; Mythallar cracking or Magic cracking is undoubtedly this Domain.

Kandela did not think for long before deciding to seek assistance from Xia Shao. At present, capturing the Moonshadow Family members is the most important thing. If the big picture is delayed because of his pathetic self-esteem, then even if he solves the problem at the door, what is the point?

……

It is just that Kandela has already explicitly asked for help. He could certainly wait for other Mages in the Command Network to come up with a plan, but that would undoubtedly delay the serious business. In fact, this is also one of the fundamental reasons why he was able to become the action commander.

While other Mages in the Command Network were analyzing the stone chamber's Magic Net and magic state, Xia Shao himself also used the Computing Power Pool and smart brain to analyze it. In this situation, the most helpful thing is undoubtedly the smart brain.

Kandela soon arrived outside the most heavily guarded stone chamber. Here, the visible Magic Net Strings alone were comparable to the Mythallar core of Evereska, not to mention those unknown parts that could only be seen through special Scrying Spells.

And now, he has even seen unconventional magic phenomena that are completely mismatched with this secret stronghold, and he is certain that this is the performance opportunity he has been looking forward to since the beginning of the operation.

Like the previous Time-Involving Ritual, it was not within the scope of Xia Shao's mastery. Even if dozens of him were added together, it would be difficult to make a qualitative push for research and analysis. That kind of research and analysis requires more Mages to accelerate it.

It is equivalent to a Xia Shao who does not need a thinking process at all and will absolutely not make mistakes. In this situation, unless one has an absolute crushing advantage over Xia Shao in knowledge, one will be crushed.

But here, for the first time, he felt pressure, not from the target itself, but from the goal he set for himself—he must perform well in the operation.

The judgment process in between does not need Kandela to worry about at all; Xia Shao has arranged everything. This is also because Kandela is not capable; if he were capable, Xia Shao would not even need to go to such trouble.

Seeing this scene, such a realization suddenly rose in Kandela's heart: "This should be the last secret location of the stronghold!"

The Computing Power Pool can mostly only provide pure computing power and inspiration of uneven quality, while the smart brain can be almost equivalent to dozens or nearly a hundred Xia Shaos thinking in coordination.

"Use the Guidance Artifact to indicate the following positioning Nodes—"

And at this moment, in such a situation, while other Mages in the Command Network had not yet analyzed anything, Xia Shao had already issued Spellcasting instructions to Kandela.

And up to now, he does not think his performance has been outstanding enough. The Moonshadow Family members who jumped out before were just small fry, and he has not seen a single big fish on the wanted list.

In the secret stronghold inside the mountain, Kandela kept pushing forward, leaving behind one imprisoned Moonshadow Family member after another waiting to be recovered by Xia Shao, but the number of Moonshadow Family members was limited after all.

It was clearly the performance opportunity he was looking forward to, but he could not grasp it because his ability was insufficient.

At the other end of the Mind Link, Xia Shao adopted Kandela's suggestion and personally retrieved the Scrying dimension mentioned by Kandela from the feedback results of the Wide-Area Detection.

And now this, like the duel with the high-level Mage in the Tear Drop Lake operation before, is within Xia Shao's ability range. In this situation, the assistance of the smart brain has an almost absolute advantage.

After all, it is outside the territory of various countries. Xia Shao does not need to really control a group of Elite Mages to carry out Coordinated Casting. Even if there is a senior Mage leading the team there, he only needs to let the leading senior Mage, which is Kandela, use the Guidance Artifact to indicate the strike range, and the rest can be left to War Spells.

While seeking assistance, he also immediately synchronized his Scrying results of the stone chamber in front of him to the Command Network, and provided some further Scrying suggestions based on his limited knowledge and experience.
