Chapter 3433 Multi-dimensional Protection Channel Transfer
Moreover, this experience also reminded Xia Duo that what he thought was a perfect defense mechanism might have left the door wide open from another angle.
In fact, Xia Duo has done some research in this aspect. For example, the influence of the previous Tower of Time can exist in the main plane, the etheric plane and the shadow plane at the same time, so naturally it needs to be in the three planes at the same time.
Establish protective measures.
Before, Lord Hawke sent people to cause trouble in the southern territory. It was because he ignored the protection of the shadow plane that Sha Duo found the opportunity to catch the arcanist in one fell swoop and detained him in the Tower of Time to prepare for his future growth.
Time was bought.
But in the past, Xia Duo mostly carried out protection in planes such as the etheric plane, the astral plane, and the shadow plane that were almost parallel to the material plane. That is to say, when establishing protective measures, these three planes would be involved at the same time.
Especially for the behavior of using these three planes as a transit to bypass protective measures, many countermeasures have been designed.
But judging from what Uta discovered today, it seems that the elemental plane also has a lot to offer, or to be more precise, the inner plane that exists inside matter may also become a loophole in protection.
It's just that he is not an elemental creature after all. Even if he has blood related to wind and water, he has never encountered a scene like today.
Taking advantage of the mage tower, almost most of the mage towers obtain water through magic, rather than introducing river water into the mage tower. The same is true for the air. The air inside and outside the mage tower is not connected.
So he never considered using wind and water to invade, but now, it seems that most of the protective mechanisms of the material plane can be bypassed from the inner plane.
Not to mention anything else, at least Uta's extraordinary perception ability in the field of earth elements, as well as the Illuminati disguise that is easily seen through by this ability, are enough to reflect the application potential in this direction.
For a while, Shado even wanted to invite Uta to join the Tower of Time, specializing in research related to the inner plane. However, business was still important at the moment. Anyway, Uta would not run away since he was in Calimshan, and he would not be able to invite him again after the war.
Not too late.
And he also has to think carefully about what conditions the Tower of Time must offer to attract Uta to join. As a Calimshan scholar, Uta should have no shortage of various research resources.
The only breakthrough is probably that the opponent has become an elemental creature.
Although Calimshan magic has developed into a truly universal arcane magic, it was developed from blood magic after all, so it may inevitably be neglected in research related to the earth element field.
Although the major arcane magic systems on the main plane now have the characteristics of a universal magic system, they are still a long way from the scientific system in Sha Duo's hometown.
The most obvious point is that magic research on the main plane focuses more on applied research, with little or no investment in basic research. Those basic research results are often by-products of applied research.
According to Sha Duo, currently only the Tower of Time has invested a lot of resources in basic research, such as the Plane Exploration Center, which was originally established just to discover new planes.
But later, under the guidance of Shado's philosophy, it gradually turned into an exploration of the nature of planes and ethereal layers, and discovering new planes became a side goal.
Of course, this is because the Severnton Council has cooperated with the golden dragon Plitatis to discover many new planes and shared them with all members. But if the goal is to discover new planes, this goal has been achieved.
Already.
There is no need to continue to invest a lot of manpower and material resources in the future. Even if it is to explore different technical routes to discover new dimensions, it should not be invested so much.
But Xia Duo still invested, and even the most precious human resources at the moment - the high-level mages who had accepted the inheritance ceremony, were allocated to several batches in succession. If it were any other mage tower organization, they would never be as generous as him.
Providing adequate support is a great attraction for a person who wants to engage in the research field, but if Uta's mind is not on research, then his work may be in vain.
This was one of the reasons why Shado did not invite him immediately. It would be best to wait until after the war to inquire about the situation of Uta and Uta's family from the Tarafu or Mairead families, and understand the needs of the other party before taking the right medicine.
As for now, we still want to find a way to bypass the disguise of the Illuminati and enter the rift to see if we can find the passage to the underdark and then find the core ritual of the Illuminati.
Thinking of this, Xia Duo asked Uta: "Is there a way to bypass the disguise here and get inside?"
"Okay, the mage who is pretending here thinks that the underground fissure is just a gap in the geology. In fact, his thinking is too bad. This disguise can't stop me at all."
Uta immediately responded in the affirmative, and also suggested that Shado simply bypass this place and take another path that would not touch the camouflage or warning magic here at all.
"That's it!"
Xia Duo thought about it and agreed to Uta's suggestion. After all, Uta was the expert when it came to the field of earth and stone, and he always respected the opinions of experts.
"Then I'll trouble you, Lord Uta."
With the help of Tarafu, Shaduo quickly communicated the details with Uta, and then the two of them walked around the area one after another and escaped further down.
In the process of going down, Uta is also introducing relevant information about underground fissures to Xia Duo: "Many underground fissures are the extension of the underdark area. Small ones become underground fissures, and large ones may extend to the surface and become underworld fissures."
Regional channel.
"I have studied many Underdark fissures and passages in the south. One thing they have in common is that they are difficult to destroy. Even if the surface geological fissures are destroyed, the influence of the Underdark at their root has not disappeared, but will continue to exist.
transfer, and then gradually generate other cracks or channels.
"Of course, such transfers are not always like this. They still have to do with their corresponding Underdark regions. Some Underdark passages that lead directly to the surface may disappear permanently after being destroyed once, but some underground fissures can be transferred and reborn several times after being destroyed several times.
, it is difficult to have a definite number.”
It turns out that, in the past, Xia Duo only knew that the formation of passages in the Underdark was very strange. Sometimes they had been destroyed, but new ones could be found nearby.
It is difficult to explain this phenomenon. Could it be that the mage who destroyed the passage in the Underdark deliberately released the water? It is obviously impossible, especially in a country like Cormanthor with extreme hatred and fear of drow.
If they could destroy the Underdark passage once and for all, they would never let anything go.
Of course, even so, it cannot be simply assumed that the Underdark passage discovered in the Dragonspine Mountains a few years ago is the product of the transfer of underground passages from the drow war that caused heavy losses to the countries in the Listal Forest before the birth of Cormanthor.
