Chapter 3452: Resurgence

These Alliance representatives did not disappoint Shado completely after all. They did not wait until the end of the twenty minutes he gave. It took only four or five minutes, and under the leadership of Tirion, Devin and other representatives who had clearly expressed their support before, they signed the authorization document together, which could be said to be "coerced".

And at Shado's strong request, the validity period of the authorization document starts from the Battle of Tear Lake, and ends after the war.

The end time does not have much impact, the key is the start time, which is related to the time node that Shado can reasonably and legally intervene in the past.

Now that the new authorization is in hand, it is equivalent to allowing all countries to directly intervene in the battlefield of the source of time-related signals within their borders during the decisive battle by means of not limited to directly sending people and war spells.

This is meaningless to the present world, because the authorization is traced back to the past tense no matter how early it is, but for the real decisive battle on the timeline, this is the biggest guarantee after the war.

…

After obtaining the new authorization, Xia Duo immediately returned to Yongle City and came to the secret room where he made predictions before the war. It was not long since the last prediction, and the furnishings in the secret room had not changed.

What Xia Duo cared about most was the altar in the center of the secret room, which still maintained the present world that he anchored before the prediction.

If he was going to make a new round of predictions, then maintaining the past anchoring state would not be conducive to his current predictions. It would be better to anchor the predictions in the present.

If the past is used as an anchor, or if Xia Duo does not update the past anchoring state like he does now, then when making predictions, all the possibilities from the time node anchored in the past to the present of making predictions will occupy the share of the predictions.

Since the possibility from that time node in the past to the present is actually what the prophet has personally experienced and is certain, the prophet does not actually need other possibilities during this period, which is equivalent to diluting the necessary predictions with unnecessary predictions.

And the act of prediction itself is like panning for gold in the waves. The so-called dilution is equivalent to less gold, but the water remains the same.

Therefore, even for Xia Duo, who has just started the art of prophecy, it is best to choose the present time that is closest to the time of prophecy when anchoring or starting the anchor point before making a prophecy.

But this time, Xia Duo is not trying to make a prophecy, but hopes to change the past. From this perspective, the anchor point in the past is more beneficial to him.

Because the past that Xia Duo should have determined from the anchor point to the present is not what Xia Duo wants to keep. He hopes to find other better possibilities for the alliance.

In this case, using the anchor point in the past becomes very appropriate.

And there is another uncertain benefit of doing so, that is, he can "never meet" the controller of the time ritual on the side of the Illuminati, and he is in a relatively advantageous position.

Originally, Xia Duo could not do this, but the power of time gave him unexpected support.

…

In previous research, Xia Duo found that this kind of time power that was naturally dissipated by the Daphne time gem and then collected by him naturally has the effect of blessing the prophecy spell.

Even if he held the strange crystal used to store the power of time that he had collected again, he could obtain the ability to observe the timeline out of thin air, which normally requires the use of prophecy to obtain.

However, there are many restrictions on the use of prophecy spells, and a time anchor point must be established first, but as long as he held the strange crystal that stored the power of time, he could obtain such an ability.

Although it was not continuous and was not clear, it was like some pictures that he had never experienced before suddenly flashed in his mind. At first, Xia Duo did not think that it was a prophetic picture, but he was very sure that those pictures were definitely not his memories.

It is difficult to explain such pictures or perspectives out of thin air by using communication or projection spells.

What really made him sure that it was a prophecy spell was that it accurately predicted the very near future - about two or three seconds - and that such a future perspective could be automatically obtained without casting a spell.

For example, when Xia Duo saw a small ball falling from his hand, he would immediately see the scene of the small ball falling to the ground and bouncing, and then the small ball would fall to the ground.

The closer to the present, the more accurate and clear the prophecy scene is. The farther into the future, the more fragmented and blurred the prophecy scene is.

In this regard, he did not try much, just a taste, because any attempt would consume the power of time, and for him now, this unique power of time must be used in more critical places, of course, it cannot be consumed at will.

Although he only tried it a little, he still gained a lot. Among them, the least important but also the most far-reaching point for him now is that after contacting and consuming the power of time, he can already sense the existence of the power of time.

The power of time does not feel like any specific elemental energy to him, but more like a trend, like the ripples produced by the continuous extension of the timeline into the future.

But this is also a real and powerful force, powerful enough to change the past.

With his current perception of the power of time, he cannot quantify the amount of the power of time, but can only make a rough comparison, which is why he was able to judge the Illuminati's time-related rituals in the Elan underground before.

If he can't sense the power of time, then he may have to find a way to get close and judge from the details of the ceremony, which may delay a lot of time.

If there is any power similar to the power of time, Xia Duo can immediately give an example, that is the power of blood, which is also an unconventional and difficult to quantify power.

But compared with the traceable blood power, the power of time is too elusive. Xia Duo only collected the time power scattered in Daphne's time gem and consumed them for some simple experiments, and then he gained the ability to sense the power of time.

If he is allowed to study and contact it in depth, will he gain the ability to directly control the timeline or even travel freely in the timeline?

In fact, he can already control the timeline, but the time power he has now is too scarce to support his direct control of the timeline. Instead, he needs to use other methods to amplify the characteristics of the time power itself to the extreme.

It's similar to the leverage effect.

What Xia Duo chose was the prophecy spell. The Illuminati's time-related rituals were two completely different technical routes. Of course, if we talk about the more advanced one, it must be the Illuminati.

After all, the time-related rituals can change the past without the power of time, and his current method is still to make a fuss about the power of time.

Once the power of time is gone, the Illuminati can still continue, but he will no longer be able to do anything~
