Chapter 3465: Foreign Affairs Conflict

Having utilized the time advantage of the Astral Plane to plan out the new Time Line, Xia Duo did not waste any Time Force on locking onto possibilities with extremely low probabilities; instead, he prepared to walk through the Time Line he had just experienced once more.

Of course, once he began to reshape the Time Line, the future trajectory would inevitably not be exactly the same as the one he had just experienced. Even if he could maintain operations identical to before, with so many free wills in an entire world, there was no guarantee that the future evolution would be the same as before.

It is like a chaotic pendulum; no matter how precisely it is made, and no matter how consistent the initial conditions are at the start, it will eventually result in a completely different outcome due to the combined effect of numerous variables.

Of course, in real history, there exists historical inertia. The probability of certain situations appearing is simply higher than others, just as no matter how many final states a chaotic pendulum has, it always revolves around the center.

Therefore, basically, as long as Xia Duo maintains the same operations as the last time, the general direction of future development will basically be the same as the future, but there will inevitably be a large number of differences in details that do not affect the general direction.

After everything was prepared, Xia Duo immediately began to reshape the Time Line. In an instant, he felt as if he had returned to the past, but the evolution of the previous few Time Lines remained vivid in his mind.

The Time Line he chose was the same as the last one, but he himself had quite a few regrets after finishing the previous Time Line. Moreover, since the main purpose this time was to investigate the Xiangshui River Battle, its subsequent evolution would likely deviate significantly from the last one.

……

Yongle City.

Xia Duo had just completed a prophecy of the future, but in the very first Time Line, he only saw some simple future scenes.

For example, the scene of Evereska, which was still hanging on the edge of Yongle City, being attacked and crashing, as well as the scene of the entire Northland being covered by the Space-Time Mist.

It was also because of these prophecies that he made the judgment that the Illuminati might attack Evereska, and the judgment that the Illuminati's ultimate ritual needed to be properly dismantled.

And now, he had the prophecies of the future from the previous Time Line in his mind, as well as the memories of reshaping the Time Line twice, which was equivalent to seeing a clearer and more comprehensive future.

If the Illuminati also predicted the future this way, it would likely be far more powerful than any divination Spell.

Because he had already planned the strategy for this Time Line while in the Astral Plane, Xia Duo sorted through his memories slightly and immediately began to act—

First, to ensure he could still have the opportunity to reshape the Time Line, he had to obtain the Time Gem from the Sea Elf Dali as soon as possible, and then collect Time Force from it.

And since the current time Node was still before he summoned the Divine Envoy, and because of the special nature of the Divine Envoy, it was indeed the future for him now, but from all his experiences, it was the past that had already been anchored.

During the last time he reshaped the Time Line, Xia Duo was unable to start from this moment; it was only after the Divine Envoy was summoned that the Time Line began to differ from what he had first experienced.

But this time, he also had a special technique. Since the summoning of the Divine Envoy had already converged all possibilities from the perspective of the Time Line, as long as he did not resist, he would not be skipped over by this period of time.

Of course, the limit of time he could control was the moment before the Divine Envoy descended. The time from the Divine Envoy's arrival until he parted ways with the Divine Envoy belonged to events that had already occurred, and it would connect perfectly with the moment he summoned the Divine Envoy.

In other words, no matter how many times Xia Duo reshaped the Time Line, or how many identical, similar, or different things he experienced in reverse, all memories of contact with the Divine Envoy only happened once, which was the very first time!

……

Subsequently, Xia Duo transferred his consciousness to his avatar currently in Evereska. In the first Time Line he experienced, he had come this time to warn Evereska, which made the relationship between the two sides somewhat subtle.

But this time, there was no need for him to warn them, because whether Evereska was attacked or not was not in the hands of Evereska, and in the previous few Time Lines, the Illuminati did not subsequently attack Evereska.

Although this was not necessarily the result of his warning, he had come to this Time Line with a plan anyway. If everything went smoothly, he might not even need to wait for the decisive battle with the Illuminati before reshaping the Time Line again.

Alliance Headquarters.

Xia Duo sought out 【someone】 alone,

This was his, and even the Alliance's, only means of counterattacking and turning the tables. However, the source of the little bit of Time Force he had in his hands now was Dafuni. With just this little bit of existing Time Force, he could change the past with the help of the Prophecy Ritual.

Then what about Dafuni, who possessed more Time Force? What kind of scene would that be?

For a moment, Xia Duo even thought about simply giving up the Main Plane. Anyway, the Tower of Time and most of his subjects had already left the Main Plane. If he felt bad about it, taking Yongle City as an ark and bringing more people along would not be a problem at all.

But after thinking a little deeper, he abandoned this idea without hesitation. Right now, it was not yet the time when he was truly at the end of his rope; at least the bit of Time Force he had on hand had not been completely consumed.

Furthermore, letting the Illuminati, who could continuously obtain Time Force, occupy the Main Plane was simply too dangerous. Moreover, in Xia Duo's heart, there was also a desire for Time Force that was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

As long as he could defeat the Illuminati, perhaps he could obtain the secret of the regeneration of Time Force from Dafuni, or at least obtain certain clues.

If he missed this opportunity, perhaps there would never be such an opportunity again in the future.

In Xia Duo's hometown, the most ultimate secrets of the Universe were nothing more than space-time and matter, and the Magic world was the same. And right now, there was such a shortcut to penetrate the mysteries of time.

If he could miss even this, Xia Duo felt that his future self would definitely slap himself hard.

……

"Heaven's Will, what exactly is Heaven's Will?"

Xia Duo did not believe in Heaven's Will, but the real world was an incredibly complex system. No one could fully grasp every detail within this system. The natural evolution of the system beyond one's own control might be Heaven's Will.

But besides himself, there were countless individuals with free will in this system, and the Heaven's Will manifested from this appeared even more chaotic and unpredictable.

And under such circumstances, personal choices could better highlight an individual's character: is it to believe that destiny is hard to change and thus go with the flow, or to actively strive for all favorable factors in order to change it?

Xia Duo was undoubtedly the latter,

After pondering for a moment, he decided not to change the outcome of the Xiangshui River Battle for the time being, but to first explore the specific positioning of the Xiangshui River Battle in the Illuminati's ritual in other Time Lines, thereby providing a certain actionable approach for subsequent changes.

Doing this was essentially still to reduce the consumption of Time Force. This was his biggest trump card for turning the tables, and he could not be too cautious!
