Actually, Xia Duo now knows the specific consumption of the previous few reshaping timelines except the last time. According to his own definition of "1" unit of time force, it takes about fifty units.

As for the consumption of the last time to reshape the timeline, he thinks it should not be much different. After all, he randomly chose a place in the wild to collect soil and rocks, and the impact on the whole world is minimal.

And he can almost be sure that the place where he collected soil and rocks must still be the same as the beginning in this new timeline, that is, there is no big pit where soil and rocks were collected.

If he takes out the soil and rocks stored in the portable space now, it is equivalent to the existence of two piles of exactly the same soil and rocks in this world at the same time.

But in fact, material resources are not as precious as the power of time. Take precious metals such as refined gold and mithril as an example. Although Xia Duo cannot plant mithril artificially at present, refined gold can be mass-produced long ago.

Even his second floating city, Yongle City, uses refined gold as the main body.

I don't think Mithril is that special. It just needs a lot of experiments to find out the specific elemental composition. Once it is found, it will not be far from direct mass production in the factory.

It just consumes a little energy. In this magical world, energy is the least valuable. Even if it is a special positive energy, it may be a very rare medical resource for ordinary people, but for wizards, it is not more precious than the river water flowing in the normal environment.

Not to mention, there are large energy equipment like Misera that directly penetrates into the inner plane to absorb energy.

In comparison, the power of time, which is currently the only source of Daphne, is the most precious resource. Using the power of time to exchange for material resources is more unacceptable than picking up sesame seeds and losing melons.

But if it is used for experiments, necessary consumption is acceptable.

After all, if a resource is not used at all and is only stored in a warehouse, it is actually equivalent to not having it. Since you have it, you should find a way to make it play its due role.

...

Next, Shado went in two directions. The avatar was still waiting for a response from Ilfarran, and then went to Belluno to meet with the Tide Queen Tess and invite her to join the Northern Alliance.

It was a piece of cake to get the Time Stone.

As for Shado's original body, he was not going to Tevimansa in this timeline, and he had to avoid meeting Daphne as much as possible to prevent the other party from knowing the existence of his "oddity".

But this brought up another problem, that is, if he did not go to Tevimansa to fight Daphne, the Illuminati would not show their cards completely.

And if he had to wait until those time-related signals could no longer be hidden to respond, he was worried that it would be too late, and the battle of Tanzan Peak had been anchored. Shado was not sure how the follow-up would evolve if he decided not to go to Tevimansa now.

There were too many variables. As a person who "went back to the past" to try to change the future, Shado actually did not want variables to exist from the bottom of his heart. Even if he did not reshape the timeline, he hoped to control the variables as much as possible based on his current identity.

In fact, the reason why any plan, big or small, is considered so much is largely to reduce variables as much as possible, so that the direction of events meets the psychological expectations of the planner.

Only those who have no plan in mind and live a life of mediocrity will not care about variables at all, and even enjoy variables.

Of course, this does not mean that the role of variables is completely negative. Xia Duo often needs variables.

For example, the emergence of a genius is a variable, but it is a positive variable that is beneficial to him and can be controlled by him.

…

After repeated consideration, Xia Duo decided to go to Tevimansa, but in order to hide his identity and wander around various key battlefields to collect the power of time, he needs to avoid using some special abilities as much as possible.

For example, use the time flow regulator to collect the power of time, and use the bloodline ability to hide the body in the world.

The ideal situation is to capture Carano directly and leave. As long as there is such key evidence in hand, there is no need to worry that the Illuminati will not show its cards. In this way, the subsequent events will continue the previous development without too many variables.

Xia Duo wants to turn the war between the Alliance and the Illuminati into a war of attrition between the two sides. Of course, he himself (the fact that he can collect the power of time) needs to be hidden.

In this way, the balance of the war will greatly tilt towards his side, and victory is just around the corner.

…

It is not Xia Duo's habit to open champagne at halftime, but after entangled with the Illuminati for so long, he finally saw a glimmer of hope, which inevitably made him a little nervous, but he quickly adjusted his mentality and held on to the two lines.

Soon, good news came from Ilfarang. The chief governor of Ilfarang invited him to meet and discuss. Of course, before this news, the Alliance Monitoring Center detected a large number of time-related signals again.

Compared with the previous timeline, it was advanced by ten minutes. At first glance, this advance amount is nothing special, but in the eyes of Xia Duo, who has experienced many timelines, it is undoubtedly that Daphne has accelerated the speed of perceiving threats from the timeline level.

And he also had a similar feeling. Even because of his personal experience, at this moment he could vaguely perceive the invisible pressure from the timeline level, or the threat——

Daphne is reshaping the timeline countless times, little by little converging the timeline to the one that is most conducive to the ultimate ritual of the Illuminati.

At this moment, the fact that the Alliance detected a large number of time-related signals ahead of time is a clear proof.

After all, Shado has not had time to make any particularly obvious impact on the outside world in this timeline, and the Illuminati's sudden acceleration of progress can only be caused by Daphne.

If the Illuminati's progress is advanced every time the timeline is recalculated, it will undoubtedly compress Shado's time for action and space for calculation.

It can be seen that even if Daphne may not know that he can also manipulate the timeline, she still made a practical response instead of letting him do some small actions in a daze.

…

Shado cannot directly intervene in the actions of the Illuminati for the time being, but he has enough initiative on the Alliance side. Under his intentional promotion, the Alliance "once again" established a spiritual network dedicated to this war.

The trip to Sinaria and Belluno was also very smooth. The time gems obtained again were very different from the beginning, and the time power in them had been consumed by more than half.

All in all, it is only enough to perform one or two more timeline reshaping operations.
