Lord of Arcane

Badigal didn't understand Shado's request, but he still agreed to convene a meeting of parliamentarians specifically for this purpose and proposed it in the name of the Seven Towers.

It is also in the interests of the Seven Towers to re-sign a more stringent confidentiality agreement for Mythra. After all, they are also vested interests now.

As for Iolum, he has actually reacted at this time and has sent a private message to ask, "Is Plitatis related to the Holy Golden Dragon Empire that Savile once visited?"

Shado only replied "yes", and Iolum knew what he should do. However, Shado also reminded again, "Don't reveal the existence of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire. For Netheril, it is currently a certain level." The information advantage is very important.”

"I understand, wait for my news."

……

Afterwards, Shado interrupted the communication, met Savile's probing gaze opposite him, and explained: "Mythra plays an extraordinary role in this way of exploring new planes through the etheric boundary. I reminded the teacher and the Seven Pagodas Bian called everyone to sign a stricter confidentiality agreement."

"I just realized what you said. That's how it should be. If Mithra is acquired by the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, then we may have to join them!"

Whenever he mentioned the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, Savile's tone always contained a complex emotion mixed with awe, yearning, and a trace of resistance.

"Let's not talk about that. I have read all the information you brought back. To be honest, I have been in the Holy Golden Dragon Empire for more than four years, but I have never come into contact with these information. I really don't know if it has suddenly emerged in the past few years. , or the upper management at that time hid it deeply.”

When he said this, Savile himself had actually got the answer. Even if he returned to the main plane a few years before Plitatis arrived, a few years would probably not be enough for the Holy Golden Dragon Empire to develop such a complete system. technology.

Not to mention building a cross-domain transmission link with the public domain!

Either there is a huge difference in the time flow rate between the two domains with different time and space states, or the upper echelons of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire hide cross-domain related information very deeply.

As a witness to the return from a foreign land, Savile prefers the latter to be the truth.

"Then what do you think of this ether boundary theory?" Sha Duo asked.

"It should be true, but it still needs to be verified. If it is confirmed to be true, then all the work we have done to explore new dimensions will be in vain!"

"Don't deny yourself easily!"

Sha Duo saw that something was wrong with Savile's mood, and immediately reminded, "The plane exploration method we chose before is indeed different from the method of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, but this can only be said to be a different technical route, and has nothing to do with the quality of the technology itself. Speaking of which, I am more inclined to think that our technical route is more advanced and closer to the essence of the plane!

"Our current technical route is just a little behind in development time. Once we cross a certain threshold, we will find that the efficiency and accuracy of the new dimension will definitely far exceed that of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire."

To describe it with an example on Earth, the etheric boundary route of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire is a bit like detecting external targets through sonar. The higher the sonar power, the wider the detection range.

But Netheril's traditional ethereal route is like spreading an antenna array on the earth, receiving electromagnetic signals from outer space, and analyzing the signals to determine the location and attributes of the planet.

The former is active and the latter is passive.

It may be true that active detection is better in the early stage, but data can be analyzed passively. Once a certain threshold is crossed, the data will be endless after that, and the effect will far exceed that of active detection. As for what the threshold is, Xia Duo currently knows about two aspects -

One is the perceptual accuracy of the perceptual field projected to the etheric layer, and the other is the method of analyzing the detection data.

It is easy to improve the perception accuracy, but it is not easy to improve the analysis method. Taking the current detection data collected by the Tower of Time as an example, the data dimensions are as high as more than a thousand, which is used to describe the space-time state of the etheric layer in detail.

Of course, these more than a thousand dimensions are more artificially defined by Shaduo. It does not mean that more than a thousand states must be used to define the etheric layer. This is mainly because Shaduo's understanding of the etheric layer is still very shallow, and he can only In this way.

However, through dimensionality reduction analysis of these data, it is possible to discover the essence of the etheric layer. As for the new plane, it may be just a random harvest in the process of exploring the essence of the etheric layer.

Therefore, Netheril's new plane exploration route is closer to basic research, while the Holy Golden Dragon Empire's new plane exploration route is closer to the in-depth development of a certain off-the-shelf technology.

Of course, it is also possible that Prytatis had reservations and did not provide relevant principles about the etheric boundary. What he had was just a technical manual that could only teach the Nese people to use this method to discover new planes.

If you want to study it in depth, it may be even more difficult.

But again, the emergence of new fields and new technologies itself implies the existence of new theories, just like if Plitatis knew the existence of Mythra, it would be possible for him to develop dragon magic on his own. The same as Mythra.

Now that Shado knows the existence of the etheric boundary, it is naturally possible to understand the nature of the etheric boundary and even develop further spell applications based on this.

But now, when the cross-domain transmission link has not yet been established, time is still on the side of the main plane. This is the opportunity for overtaking in the main plane.

This reminds Xia Duo of a science fiction story in his hometown. It takes hundreds of years for aliens to reach the earth. But if they rush there so stupidly, they may not find a backward earth, but an earth that has experienced several technological explosions. .

Therefore, in the process of arriving, the aliens tried their best to hinder the earth's technological progress. In the end, the two sides reached a short-term peace through the threat of destruction.

Although this is just a story, it can also bring enlightenment to Shado, that is Pritatis who is currently living in the main plane.

If nothing else, the other party should pay attention to the development of magic in the main plane. Once it is discovered that the main plane may surpass the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, what will the other party do?

In other words, will the other party find ways to hinder the development of magic in the main plane in advance?

From this point of view, the so-called cross-domain transmission link project may be a cover to paralyze the main plane, wasting a lot of manpower and material resources on such a huge project, and there will inevitably be deficiencies in other places.

Even if the construction of the transmission link is really completed and connected to the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, this is indeed a retreat when the crisis of annihilation breaks out in the main plane. Even if the Holy Golden Dragon Empire is really willing to accept the creatures from the main plane -

But the opportunity for independent development of the main plane is impossible!

The saddest thing is that most countries in the main plane are still in the classical period and have not formed an obvious group consciousness. Being accepted and assimilated by advanced civilizations may be what they desperately hope for! (End of chapter)
