Chapter 740 Gray Mist's Big Move

Chapter 740 Gray Fog's Big Move

Due to the different speed of time in the deep dream world, from the time Avis controlled the floating city to escape, to the time he dealt with the pursuers and his consciousness returned to the Yar Continent, about two days had passed in the main material world.

During this period, Gray Mist's high-profile actions obviously attracted the attention of all the prophets.

After contacting the hermit, Anvis quickly found out the situation on his side.

There is a reason for Gray Mist's unusually high-profile behavior. According to the hermit's information, Gray Mist is currently in a special state.

Previously, Gray Mist cooperated with the current Speaker of the Federal Parliament to jointly promote the Construct Network Headband, and used it to reap the feedback of fate and the influence of the Web of Fate. This is a secret that many high-level prophets are aware of.

To this end, they are fighting openly or covertly with the Gray Fog for control of the construct network, preventing the Gray Fog from making a breakthrough easily.

However, what all the other prophets did not expect was that although Gray Mist was openly competing fiercely with them for control of the network, in secret, what he really needed was not simply to rely on the popularization of the Internet to interfere with the mainland.

Since the Federal Parliament has been making every effort to re-promote the magic construct headband, as the popularity of the construct network has reached a certain level, the most critical part of Gray Mist's plan has been achieved.

There is one thing that Gray Mist has hidden from everyone: he is not only the promoter of the construction network, but also the creator of the main structure of the construction network. Even though the main structure of the new network has been modified, the foundation is still his.

Through his own understanding of the underlying structure of the network, Gray Mist directly used his hidden authority to secretly control the flow of information in the constructed network. At the same time, he directly disclosed a large amount of information through the network and synchronized it to all network users.

It was a large amount of knowledge that was originally kept secret by major forces, such as the complete detailed process of each profession's breakthrough from level one to level seven, detailed information on increasing the success rate of the breakthrough, and the sources of the required treasures and auxiliary potions, even including some hidden professions.

There are also various secret methods such as body strengthening and blood transformation, as well as a large number of high- and low-level spell models, inscription structures, spell gestures, lists of spell materials, etc.

As an eighth-level ultimate prophet and ninth-level spellcaster, the knowledge that Gray Mist disclosed on the construction network is even more sophisticated and comprehensive than the inheritance hidden in the bottom of the box of most small and medium-sized forces.

Gray Mist's move directly broke the information blockade that the ruling class had done everything they could to maintain. With this key information, a large part of the obstacles to the advancement of civilian professionals were directly removed.

At the same time, with the help of a mysterious stranger, Gray Mist sorted out a set of ideas that were completely different from the existing social structure, proposing that "all men are created equal" and began to spread it within the internal network of the Spark Resistance Organization.

The reason why those nobles are stronger than you is only because their ancestors monopolized most of the important cultivation resources. Then they used those cultivation resources that should have belonged to you to make you work for them and continue to help them monopolize more resources.

But why are civilian professionals born to be oppressed? Although the nobles are powerful, they are not invincible. There are also many like-minded people who choose to resist. The initial spark has now spread into a prairie fire.

After Gray Mist launched his backup plan, due to various "accidents", half a magic hour had passed from the time Gray Mist officially launched the plan to the time the high-ranking officials of many kingdoms in the Federation discovered something was wrong.

Although the aristocracy of many kingdoms in the Federation responded urgently by completely banning the sale and use of construct network headbands in their own territories and sending knights to collect the construct headbands from house to house, it was too late.

When the information gap between the vast majority of civilian professionals and the small and medium-sized aristocratic professionals is narrowed by the gray fog, it is foreseeable that there will be unprecedented turmoil and reshuffle in the future.

Perhaps many professionals still dare not resist because they are afraid of the majesty of the rulers, but there will eventually be some professionals who have been stuck with breakthrough resources or have been oppressed by nobles who will choose to take risks.

In a state of panic, some high-ranking officials of small kingdoms even considered using large-scale mental magic to collectively brainwash the lower-class people, directly erasing the information they were exposed to that they should not have seen, and restoring everything to its original state.

However, this proposal was ultimately abandoned due to its excessive negative impact and lack of significance.

Large-scale mental magic is difficult to operate delicately. If not handled properly, it is easy to brainwash normal professionals into fools. And if the information in the constructed network is not resolved, it will be meaningless even if they really brainwash the people.

The most bizarre thing was that the speaker of the federal parliament and more than half of the parliamentarians did nothing about Gray Mist's actions. Even though they were the supreme rulers of the major kingdoms in the federation, they allowed all this to happen.

Even though some members of parliament later brought the matter to the parliament for an urgent vote, the Speaker's response was just a casual remark that "parliament is aware of the situation and will find a way to deal with it later," and there was no further news.

It was obvious that in this incident, Gray Mist had at least reached a certain consensus with them in advance.

The consequence of the lack of unity among many parliamentarians on this matter was that some kingdoms asked the ninth-level guardians to take action personally and roughly clean up the construct network headbands circulating in their own kingdoms.

But since the headbands of other kingdoms were not cleaned up, these kingdoms' efforts were almost in vain.

As if by coincidence, Gray Mist launched his plan exactly within a short time of the time when the Star Song Cult attacked Fiona.

After listening to the hermit's detailed account, Avis finally understood the situation of the gray fog.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Obviously, Gray Mist's move had far-reaching impact. In a bigger sense, it might even permanently change the landscape of professionals in the Federation and even the continent.

However, in Avis's observation, although the Web of Destiny showed an obvious change in the federal area, there were no other special fluctuations afterwards.

Even if a rank 6 professional breaks through to rank 7, the web of fate will experience fluctuations that will be clearly sensed by all the predictors. And if a rank 8 predictor breaks through to rank 9, according to records, it will even cause a full-scale shock to the web of fate on the continent. Even if he was previously in a deep dream world, it is impossible for him not to sense it.

In other words, no matter what the reason, although Gray Mist made a big news in the Federation, he still failed to truly break through, and there was still hope of stopping him.

Other high-level predictors are also aware of this, and have urgently joined forces to try every possible means to destroy the nodes of the constructed network in various parts of the Federation, delaying the progress of the gray fog breakthrough. At the same time, they are also urgently discussing whether to kill the gray fog directly before it actually breaks through.

The Hermit contacted Avis urgently to discuss with him what they should do.
