Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2683 Countermeasure Ryan's Chance

At this moment, it is impossible for Xia Duo to say that he has no regrets, but regret cannot make the demons disappear suddenly, and with the hidden ability of the demons, even if he prepares in advance, it is estimated that this will still happen.

It's nothing more than a trick.

Quickly adjusted his mood, Xia Duo also began to urgently maintain the Lingsi network. He first transferred those malicious access users to a separate local area network, and then cast psychic spells to appease those impacted access users. .

After that, the network architecture was further improved, and the brain was split and added in, as a repeater for the exchange of consciousness information between various local area networks.

Of course, it is mainly used to screen the information exchange between various LANs, and those obviously abnormal information flows can be blocked directly, so as not to penetrate into other LANs.

……

Not only that, Xia Duo also told Dum to lead someone to give those troublemakers a little offline reality based on the location information he provided.

Normally, Lingsi Network does not have the positioning function, but who made Xia Duo improve the depth of perception!

Not to mention that those demons can burst out such a strong and large amount of consciousness information in the Lingsi network in a short period of time, and their own state is not normal.

If there is no accident, those guys should be in a state of extremely low perception of the outside world at the moment, and Dum was just able to catch the current one in the past!

However, Xia Duo also believes that the demons exposed now are not only all the demons in Metril City, not to mention those outside the Lingsi network, even those who have already connected to the Lingsi network, there may not be no demons continue to hide.

Therefore, Xia Duo asked all local mages connected to the Lingsi network not to reveal their identities as much as possible. At the same time, if there are subordinates and vassals in the city, they must use them to protect themselves first, and then try to protect themselves. likely to appease the populace.

What Xia Duo thought was that if the sabotage of the ceremony failed, it would be better for the people in Metril to die in a relatively peaceful state than in a state of panic.

Of course, from another point of view, this is also to prevent the demons from causing riots as much as possible. For now, the ceremony that Paris is performing does not have a lot of emotional requirements such as fear, but it is not guaranteed that the demons will be psychopathic. Just do it.

……

In fact, Xia Duo was right to be worried. Not long after the Lingsi network resumed operation, another change occurred in the city. The elders of several local big families, together with the commander of the city guard, began to gather soldiers and people in front of the Silver Spire Pearl Plaza.

The slogan they played turned out to be "The Northern Alliance invaded, controlled the capital messenger, tried to open the portal from Metril, and summoned more troops to launch an all-out war."

The reason why they gathered in Zhuguang Square is because their beloved city lord is trying to break through the blockade in the Silver Spire. As long as they can contact the crown king and the council, recruit reinforcements, or even just arouse the vigilance of the higher-ups, the conspiracy of the Northern Alliance will not attack self-defeating.

We can't let these outsiders ruin the city lord's plan!
When Xia Duo received the news, Zhuguang Square was already full of instigated ordinary people. They shouted the slogan of defending Metril and Yeerlan, demanding that the invaders release the envoy and withdraw from the territory of Yeerlan.

After receiving such news, Sha Duo was simply shocked that the demon would still do this. He immediately asked Doom who was near Pearl Square:
"Are those leaders demon descendants?"

"I can't see it, unless we can catch them and inspect them in public, there is no way to prove that they are demon descendants, but if we do this, we will be more like intruders in the eyes of ordinary people, so even if the demons are detected descendants, they can also be said to be our hands and feet."

"What a headache!"

Xia Duo really wanted to ignore those ordinary people in Zhuguang Square. After all, no matter how many ordinary people gathered there, they would not be able to interfere with his next actions. But what if the demons became angry and started a massacre in Zhuguang Square?
In this way, even if the ceremony of Paris is finally organized, this matter will definitely become a stain on him. Although this matter has nothing to do with him directly, bystanders will always find reasons.

In addition, a large number of people gathered in Zhuguang Square, causing such a big commotion, which has actually affected the Lingsi network. Now almost every moment, local mages repeatedly confirm the identity of the messenger to Xia Duo.

These local mages are based in the local area and have inextricable relationships with ordinary people. The mages are not superhuman, and they will be coerced by the public's thoughts, let alone the instigation of the demons.

And the devils didn't come out of thin air. The local devils were probably transformed by the local elves. They had a better understanding of the local situation and how to sow people's hearts.

Although the more than 8000 users of Lingsi Network have not withdrawn from the network in batches, it is an indisputable fact that the number of users is constantly decreasing.

If it's just ordinary mages, it doesn't matter if there are fewer, but if the elite or senior mages who act as collaborative computing nodes retire, the local computing network centered on them will immediately be paralyzed.

Now, some elite mages have started to withdraw from the network, and all Xia Duo can do is to re-plan the calculation process in the first place. If he doesn't do this, the entire collaborative computing network will quickly fall apart.

"This damn devil!"

At such a moment when he was not at ease, Xia Duo still had to use his consciousness to send a message to Iolum through his main body, asking him to ask Philipa for more tokens that could prove the identity of the envoy.

Of course, this only treats the symptoms rather than the root cause, and falls into the discourse system constructed by the demon descendants. But now Xia Duo just wants to delay the time, as long as he analyzes the blueprint of the mystery lock, and then combines the ritual spells to make a targeted blocking plan.

At that time, even if all the local mages withdraw from the Lingsi network, it will not have any impact on his plan.

On the other hand, for the ordinary people gathered in Zhuguang Square, although Xia Duo was willing to respect individual fate, he was unwilling to be stained for nothing, so he contacted the envoy Ryan, stated the pros and cons to the other party, and then made a suggestion:
"Appear to appease the people, and you may be attacked by demons in the process, but this is also an opportunity for your Excellency. What better opportunity to gain reputation than this?"

Regarding Xia Duo's suggestion, Ryan immediately agreed without much hesitation. As Xia Duo said, this is indeed his chance. As a close minister of King Helien's side, he is also under pressure from performance.

According to Xia Duo's suggestion, as long as he survives this time, he will be able to be reused when he returns to Tavimansa, and maybe he can start a new political career with this achievement.
