Chapter 466 Fairness and Justice
In fact, the seemingly groundless concerns of some people in previous rumors were not completely unreasonable.
This is a world where magic exists, after all, and as a device that superiors are promoting at a near loss, the constructed network also has backdoors.
According to the research of the spellcasting team, when a professional's emotions fluctuate violently, the intensity of the mental power he exudes unconsciously is actually several times that of when his emotions are calm.
In this state, the power provided by one person is enough to match that of two or three people in normal situations. As long as there are enough people connected to the network, even if the number of people is small, the total amount of power provided is enough to meet the standard.
As for how to trigger such violent emotional fluctuations? When the option of leaving the network disappears and the consciousness of network users cannot leave the constructed network, their emotions should fluctuate violently enough.
This is the core program set up at the deepest level of the constructed network. If you detect the login headband alone, it is completely impossible to detect any traces.
Once this final program is activated, even if other people in the real world take off their headbands, they will not be able to awaken the consciousness of the network connected person because their consciousness has been trapped in the network of nothingness.
Of course, this is a method of exhausting the resources. After having such an experience where they have no choice, most people will probably never choose to try something similar again.
Playing with the small dark golden key with his fingers, the Speaker looked calmly at the stage that was about to be unveiled below, and the many audiences who were looking forward to the start of the play.
It would seem more ideal to allow the construct network to continue to develop until it is sufficient to launch the plan under normal circumstances.
However, the core of the competition among all parties now is time.
There is only one breakthrough point for a ninth-level prophet. Once one of the other parties breaks through first, the game is over.
Moreover, the speaker knew clearly that although the network seemed to be promoted very quickly on the surface, the success rate of achieving a network penetration rate of more than 80% was actually quite small.
When the penetration rate of the constructed network exceeds the critical point of 50%, subsequent expansion will definitely become increasingly difficult, and all enemies will begin to target it.
Therefore, there was no need to continue taking risks. Tonight was the time he planned to start this final procedure.
“Boom—”
At this moment, tonight's opera just began.
As a magic bell rang, the layered dark blue curtains were pulled open, and accompanied by slightly tense background music, the scene of the palace and the dinner party appeared in the center of the stage.
When the curtain rose, many dancers playing nobles were already sitting around a long table. One of the nobles was identified by many people and was eventually sentenced to death by the king's order with a cup of poisoned wine.
While enjoying the first act of this famous stage play, the Speaker's eyes moved around the theater with interest.
Under the effect of magic, the walls of the boxes below seemed as transparent as crystal in his eyes, and could not block his sight at all.
In his opinion, opera performances do not only take place on the stage. The many audiences watching the opera under the stage are also excellent actors.
At each of these shows, he sees many different performances.
Many times, these "performances" offstage were even more to his taste than the legendary operas on stage.
Whether it's a conspirator, a pretentious businessman, or a nobleman secretly meeting with his mistress.
When they are doing something that is not easy to see in public, they often like to meet secretly on a long sofa in a secret club or in a private box at the opera house.
I have to say, this is a very interesting phenomenon. Perhaps they are worried that their secrets will be heard by others at home or other places they often go.
However, when his eyes swept over the compartment where Avis was, the Speaker's gaze paused slightly.
For some reason, this guy with mysterious clothes gave him a special feeling.
"Interesting...seems to be at least a high-ranking one."
After noticing this, the Speaker's eyes became even more interested.
He pressed the magic bell, and three seconds later, the theater's general manager immediately appeared at the door.
"Second floor, box 131. After the first act is over, please invite the guests inside over."
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
The person in charge nodded and then respectfully left the room.
Soon, as the first act of the opera officially ended, the curtain on the stage fell again.
When there was a knock on his door, Anvis was mentally prepared.
Earlier, while watching the film, he had already felt some invisible gaze sweeping over him.
Although there was nothing unusual on the surface, he could sense that the gaze came from the royal box on the top floor.
Anvis did not refuse the invitation. In fact, he came here tonight to watch the play because of a sudden inspiration.
When this phenomenon occurs in a high-level prophet, it is often a sign of something.
After urgently using the secret technique of the Old Secret Scriptures to switch between the two bodies, Avis followed the person in front of him and climbed a magical spiral staircase to reach the top-floor box that could not be reached from the normal passage.
In the elegant room, a young man with smooth black hair, black eyes, and a strangely gloomy face was sitting alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He was holding a cup of light silver liquid and looking at him.
Anvis' first impression of him was that he was ordinary.
Yes, that was a sense of ordinariness that was completely different from the other ninth-level beings. There was nothing special about him, and he was completely like an ordinary person.
"I am glad to see you here, Your Excellency. I hope you don't mind my somewhat rash invitation."
Seeing Avis coming, the black-robed speaker raised his glass to him. Then, a glass of the same drink appeared in front of Avis.
"Thank you for your hospitality. Life always needs some harmless accidents as embellishment."
Avis bowed with a smile, raised his hand to pick up the cup of magic spring water that exuded a strong magical scent, and sat down on the sofa opposite the Speaker.
"I just don't know how I should address you in this unexpected meeting."
"You can call me 'Far'."
Looking at Avis, who showed no sign of nervousness at all, the Speaker nodded slightly, feeling somewhat appreciative.
“The opera house is a place for role-playing. A weak bard can instantly transform into a powerful hero who kills a dragon and saves the kingdom after he steps onto the stage.
We are in the theatre, so we don’t need to use any outside names or identities.”
"fair?"
After repeating the name, Avis smiled and gently raised the goblet in his hand.
"Then, Lord Farr, you can call me 'Zaster'."
"justice?"
The Speaker was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and raised his glass in greeting as well.
"Okay, Master Zast."
At this moment, the magic bell rang twice, the stage curtain rose, and the second act of the opera officially began.
(In the Commonwealth language, the pronunciations of 'Far' and 'Zaster' are similar to 'fairness' and 'justice') (End of this chapter)
