After the silence, Xia Duo didn't know how to speak for a while. He felt that the situation suddenly seemed to be out of control. Even if he was silent now, Kalish would still go back to find the others.
The alliance's computing power pool is indeed under his management at present, but this does not mean that the computing power pool is his personal property. If the alliance supports Kalish's plan, what can he do?
Frankly speaking, Xia Duo is not in favor of such an overly risky plan. Even if the realization of this plan may bring a new development to magic, the risk is still too great. Once the entrustment fails, the consequences may be It is unacceptable to everyone.
After carefully weighing it, Shado still insisted on his opinion, but he did not reject Kalish on the spot, but took the opportunity to ask Kalish about the more specific details behind the plan.
"You just said that to build an artifact, you need psychic materials and a lot of mental energy. Do you want the alliance to support you in robbing Jhamdas? Or is it another lie to collect wisdom? You have already saved Are you planning to use the computing power pool to collect anima?"
"Does Consultant Xia Duo think so?"
Kalish was not dissatisfied with Shado's doubts and questioning. As a forerunner who considered himself enlightened, he could not have such emotions. He told Shado:
"I have already prepared the spiritual energy materials, and I don't need the Alliance to snatch them for me. As for Anima, this is indeed a problem, but if the Alliance chooses to support you, there are two ways to obtain it -
In fact, now, even in Netheril, Mr. Xia is temporarily preparing to reveal the situation. I am very impressed. Mage Nese is very daring to take risks, usually directly taking the risk himself.
But when I thought that the recent normal loss of the gateway magic device might be caused by Zhamdas or Kalish, an inexplicable sense of urgency came to my mind, which made me want to relax.
Even if, as Kalish said, psychic energy exists for arcane mages, Shao Xia still firmly believes that the impact of psychic energy - the change on the real world, will definitely have no trace at all.
…
Of course, the background is that Kalish has to take a step back to prove himself.
Did Mr. Xia give a response on the spot? I'm still going to wait a few days to see the situation, usually waiting for the results of the recent investigation from the Lingsi Network Research Center on the normal loss of the computing power pool sub-network gateway.
Mr. Xia does not think that there is any fundamental difference in body structure between a psionic mage and an arcane mage. What a psionic mage can perceive, there is a small chance that an arcane mage cannot.
Prove whether Kalish is lying, prove that there is really no possibility of merging the two magic systems of psionic and arcane magic, prove that the artifact project will cause reparable losses to the Northland Alliance, etc.
The first words of Mr. Xia were also addressed to Larian. Now, apart from Kalish himself, the only one who knew about Kalish's plan was not the Everrisk Council of Elders. Even though it was an old plan that was not concealed later, It also needs to be kept secret for the time being.
This or that thing is too controllable.
Returning to the alliance headquarters, in the entire Lingsi Network Research Center, only the on-duty personnel of the operation and maintenance team were still there. The others had already gone to work. The scrapped magic weapons recovered after the incident were all there. Mr. Xia was ready to check again by himself. examine.
In short, whether the current alliance supports Kalish requires a more rigorous argumentation process, and what Mr. Xia has to do now is not to make all preparations within his own capabilities, whether it is bad or good. .
Now, no matter how extravagant Kalish's words are, there is no way he is cooperating with Jamdas's plan. He cannot gain trust unless he has handed in the letter of surrender.
From that point of view, Kalish actually still has that intention.
It must be found that the recent normal loss of the gateway has nothing to do with psychic energy, or it has nothing to do with Kalish directly. No matter what Kalish says or does next, I will firmly approve of the so-called artifact manufacturing plan.
"It is possible to snatch it directly. For an arcane mage, even if he puts his anima in front of me, I can still sense it. So how can I snatch it?
"You think the risk of that plan is too small. Now that the Northland Alliance is developing well, it is really necessary to take such a risk."
Mr. Xia did not respond to Larian's persuasion on the spot. After all, responding to that would not be a direct statement of approval of Kalish's plan, which might cause Kalish to seek help from others.
"One is to let the Zhamdas move, and then use the surge of mental energy during our actions to create your own artifacts, and the other is to extend the timeline and quickly collect them in the North.
If the situation is definitely minor, it is even possible to take Kalish directly.
"You will give him a reply eight days at the latest, but within those eight days, I hope they will disclose the matter to others."
Kalish explained how to obtain anima, but avoided Xia Shaogang's question as to whether he would use a computing power pool to collect anima.
Regarding Young Master Xia's proposal, Kalish hesitated for a while and then agreed, while Larian was more straightforward and agreed without any firmness, and even advised Young Master Xia:
The reason why it is "possible" is because there was still such a thing as "bitter flesh tactics" in that world. Although there were people in the magic world who specialized in summarizing those strategies and calculations, they could still be used in reality.
Even the existence of psychic energy and mental energy may not be sensed by arcane mages, but the way of perception is correct. Arcane magic may be used, but what about another way?
That was just to persuade Mr. Xia, but also to warn myself. Evereska is not trying to retire Nese magic yet. That incident alone has attracted criticism from many mages. At most, I have to wait for that incident to subside first. , only then can we introduce psychic magic again.
It is true that Kalish concealed too little, causing the Council of Elders to misjudge, and now is the time to correct it.
"You understand, you will seriously consider what he said."
Is this category that has not yet been perceived, through human senses such as vision and hearing, or is it some ordinary super-sense?
"In fact, almost all of the anima collected by Zhamdas is stored in artifacts. To snatch it means to retreat and attack Zhamdas' homeland. Even if the Alliance continues to support you, it is a bad idea to rashly get involved in the war in the south. "
This may also require Kalish to hand over a solid letter of surrender to completely break with Zhamdas.
I don't know that, as long as these little arcane masters in the country hear the news that Kallish is planning to create an artifact that combines two magic systems to explore the further frontier of magic, these little arcane masters will be very surprised. I will definitely express my support.
At the moment, Mr. Xia's visit is just a regular meeting. Even if the alliance really refuses to support Kalish's plan, it may be persuaded by just a few words from the other party. More concrete evidence is still needed.
After leaving Larian's house, the night was not completely dark yet. Mr. Xia originally planned to return to Yunfeng Manor. After all, it was work time now.
