Arcane Lord

After returning to the floating city, Xia Duo checked the so-called "entry permit" for the first time, but its "correspondence certificate" attribute could not be seen at all from the appearance.

Above is a flower bag half hidden in the clouds, with a rhizome in the middle connected to the base below, it looks more like a lamp, and if the above can shine, it will not make people suspicious.

However, according to the introduction of Governor Goering's subordinates, this is indeed a magic item with the Mystery Lock permission, but it is not linked to the Cormanthus Mystery Lock, but the Northland Alliance Mystery Lock.

This might seem a bit incredible, but after some exploration, Xia Duo determined that this is a special permission of the Northland Alliance Mystery Lock.

He speculates that it may be that after obtaining the permission of the Northland Alliance Mystery Lock, Cormanthor established a communication mechanism with the Comanthor Mystery Lock.

As long as the pass and the Northland Alliance Mystery are linked, then the identity authentication can be completed through the communication between the Northland Alliance Mystery and the Comanso Mystery.

This is a relatively ingenious design idea, and even Xiaduo thought that this so-called "Cormanso Entry Permit" should also be able to be used in Yeerland or any other country with a mysterious lock.

Of course, the premise is that Yeerlan or other countries with mysterious locks have completed the unification of domestic mysterious locks and established a communication mechanism with the mysterious locks of the Northland Alliance.

In other words, this should actually be a "Northland Alliance Pass"!

From this point of view, Xia Duo has foreseen closer exchanges, cooperation and even competition in the Northland Alliance in the future, but unfortunately, this mechanism is based on the unique technology of Mystery Lock.

Although the current Netheril has also mastered some Mystery Lock technology, it is obviously not enough to build a Mystery Lock system that covers the whole situation.

Not only is the technical ability insufficient, but also the political factors of other territories must be considered.

From this, Xia Duo also thought of Nya's unfinished communication lock. As long as the mind of the elves spreads a little more, a similar existence can be created on the basis of the northern alliance's lock.

Although it is a bit inconvenient to go outside the Northland, how many chances are there for ordinary people to go outside for a stroll? And the capable ones don't care about those at all!

And this problem is not without Nya's communication locks. Before the number of communication nodes reaches a certain level, the influence of the locks is very limited.

The only advantage is probably the security of the magic net background communication. Although the information is sent in a situation similar to space broadcasting, there can only be one receiver. Once the receiver is determined, all the information scattered in the space will be sent. Convergence immediately, similar to the collapse of a probability cloud, with a definite solution.

In addition, the only advantage that Xia Duo can think of is that it is not easy to destroy, because it is designed with distributed nodes, as long as the number of nodes (people who use communication tools) reaches a certain level, this communication fan lock will Almost indestructible.

The Northland Alliance Mystery Lock seems to use a more high-end no-node design in technology, but each member state that has mastered the Northland Alliance Mystery Lock authority may paralyze or permanently destroy the Mystery Lock as long as they are proficient in the Mystery Lock. Lose.

If there is no such guarantee, countries will probably not allow such a mysterious lock covering the whole territory to exist.

As for the communication lock that Niya is designing, the authority is entirely determined by the number of nodes. If you want to completely control the lock, you need to control at least two-thirds of the number of nodes.

It is almost impossible for ordinary users and organizations to have control over this Mystery Lock, even for Xado. in their own hands.

Of course, in actual operation, he does not need to actually produce a complete set of communication instruments, only the node functions in it.

And those that integrate a large number of nodes may be called the "core nodes" of the communication fan lock. With them, it is similar to mastering the server. No amount of clients in the hands of other users can be turned upside down.

At the same time, because of the distributed design, the control right on Xado's side is actually obtained by mastering most of the Mystery Lock nodes. Even if those so-called core nodes are destroyed, they only temporarily lose control.

As long as it is remade, it can gain control again, and there may be elves discovering this in the future, but Xado believes that with the production capacity of the Tower of Time and the territory, it will definitely make the elf country that tries to control the Mystery Lock in the same way despair!

Even if all the elven countries are united, at the worst, it can ensure that control does not fall into the hands of the other party (just master one-third of the nodes).

"The Northland Alliance is a fan lock!"

Xia Duo has a very complicated perception of the existence that is most likely to be the biggest competitor in the future. On the one hand, the existence of the Northland Alliance's Mystery Lock is indeed beneficial to the overall interests of the Northland, but on the other hand, this interest is not necessarily beneficial. he.

"Five Dynasties Rivers, Mountains, Wind and Moon"

In other words, the benefits he can get from it are far less than the elven countries.

There's a saying - it's more sad to see others gain than to lose, although Xia Duo is not so narrow, but in the future competition of civilizations, he, the man at the helm, can't help pretending to be generous.

…

After thinking for a moment, Xia Duo connected the pass to the Northland Alliance Mystery Lock, and soon he received the feedback from the Mystery Lock. As he had guessed, the feedback indicated that he had obtained part of the permission of the Comanso Mystery Lock—

It is not only an entry permit, but also a special identity certificate for diplomatic personnel. It is an invitation to visit in nature, so a special reception team is also equipped to respond to Xado's call at any time.

However, these all require him to actually enter the country to understand them in detail.

Later, Shado contacted Lord Collins and mentioned the fact that Comanso had discovered that they were smuggling spices. At the same time, he also reminded the other party to withdraw the relevant personnel in time. investigation.

As for the discovery of smuggling, Xado and Collins had thought about it for a long time, so after receiving the summons from Xia Duo, Collins did not act too surprised, but was rather fortunate that it ended in such a relatively peaceful situation.

When Shado mentioned the two requirements that Cormanthor made for the spice business in the future, Lord Collins unsurprisingly refused, and proposed to seek cooperation with Everisca.

"Lord Shado, I heard that you have an old relationship with Elder Larian of the Everiska Council of Elders. I wonder if I can ask you to help me connect?"

The relationship between Shado and Everiska is not news in the entire Northland, especially after the elder Everiska was assassinated.

Collins has long heard that if he can catch up with the Council of Elders of Everisca, then his spices can enter all elven countries through Everisca, even including Cormanthor.

And it is completely legal. Even if the temporary income is less than before, it will have more development potential in the long run.
