Chapter XIII: Emergency Deployment

Korn hurriedly flew to the Aspect Tower using a flying spell, desperate to know what was going on. Where did this sudden wave of magic come from? The sudden impact of the visit, the inexplicable aura of otherworldlyness, these two things made Korn worried. He seems to have foreseen the chaos that the empire might face.

At this time, some problems have begun to appear sporadically in various parts of Ryan. The current Demonic Tide impact has not been predicted by the Astrological Tower, so even though it is at a low ebb, many mages still go to the Material Shop to buy materials to replenish the Demonic Tide. The public security station also went to various places to clean up the demonic beast film during the low tide period according to the plan. Even major schools will conduct half-day teaching activities every day during the low tide period. And some traders will even come out to buy and sell to make up for the loss of not being able to trade when the demon tide hits some time ago.

And this time, the impact of the magic tide without warning almost made everyone confused.

"What's going on with the Eye of the World! Why is there still a Demon Tide Shock! And why didn't the magic net push the trailer to us? Damn, now the web is collapsing! "There are similar complaints everywhere.

Not to mention those junior mages whose strength is relatively low and who are unable to move in the impact of the demon tide, they can only find a relatively convenient position to recuperate their minds at the moment. Those security guards who went to wipe out the monsters according to the plan were really bad luck. Many of them are still in the deep mountains, and at this time, the magic net cannot be connected, and there is no magic signal amplification device at hand. If you don't find a place to fix it, it's going to become a monster's dinner.

Warcraft are not as squeamish as human mages, most of them maintain a certain strength in the demon tide, and the main attack weapons of many Warcraft are their own demon bodies, which makes mages suffer. Mages can generally only exert about sixty percent of their strength during the low tide of magic power, and intermediate mages can only cast spells two rings lower. Usually, with the help of the magic net, the six-ring mage can even use the seven-ring high-level spell when he is prepared, but now most six-ring mages can only use the four-ring spell at most. And the four-ring spell was no more than the level of a graduate of a high-level magic school during the non-magic tide period. Of course, there are other ways for mages to keep their spellcasting levels high in the tide. But this does not mean that the Demon Tide does not affect them, and they usually need to spend a lot of money to make themselves at their usual level when they are in the Demon Tide. Some mages who don't plan to maintain their power during the Tide will have it easier.

But now, whether you are prepared or not, no matter how far you are prepared. All the mages and all the humans have lost their former dependence and calmness. They desperately need someone to tell them what the hell is going on. Luckily, it's possible to just mess with the news.

"Hello people of Ryan, I'm Douglas, Speaker of the Imperial Parliament. Right now, I'm broadcasting messages to you through the messaging network, and you may be able to use this feature through the telecommunication connection to the magic web. Although it looks like an ore radio, at least we can choose from more channels and terminals, don't we? Douglas's voice spread throughout Ryan through the major magic base stations, and Douglas's funny voice could be heard almost everywhere in Ryan at this time.

"Subjects, the empire is indeed facing some trials that we never anticipated. The sudden second demon tide impact no one expected. Well, the council did detect some anomalies in this tide before, but the various plans made by the council still did not take this into account, which is a dereliction of duty on the part of the council, and a dereliction of duty on my part. I'll review it after this wave. But now is certainly not the time to talk about that. I'm glad that the Empire still has some preparations that can come in handy in the face of such an emergency. ”

"First of all, the major defense sites. Yes, those attack holes that are older than me, older than my grandfather. The Empire still spends a 'wasted money' every year on the maintenance of these unuseful and unsightly underground structures. It doesn't seem so wronged now. These Caves are more than just Elemental Stability Circles, they can help us resist the onslaught of the Demon Tide and bring us back to peace. The strength of the circle is also greater than that of ordinary residential houses, so you can make a choice between your own home and the Raid Cave. Rest assured, the sudden magic tide is not so terrible, didn't we just experience it not long ago. At the same time, major schools also set up magic circles of the same strength. So if you want to see your children soon, you might as well go to school now, they will be looking forward to your presence at this moment. ”

"Then there are the major storage warehouses and security posts. We hadn't used the materials in the reserve warehouse during the previous Demon Tide just to prevent all kinds of accidents that might happen, and now it looks like it's time for them to come in handy. Each person can use their mana seal to go to the storage warehouse or police station every week to get a set of tranquilizers and a set of mana potions. At the same time, if there are still those awesome guys who want to contribute to our motherland at this time, then I will be a good place for you to go to the security office, during the magic tide, the security office will issue various paid tasks, and the empire needs your help everywhere. ”

"And then there's the web, oh! That's not really good news. As it turns out, our magic net still needs to be improved in terms of resistance to mana shocks. At present, the floating city, which is the carrier of the magic net, has already had some problems in the impact of the demon tide just now. So I have to regret to tell you that the magic net will not be able to assist you in casting spells for a long time. This means that everyone can no longer experience the pleasure of a higher-level mage with the help of the magic net. Luckily, the Magic Web can still facilitate our communication even in these times. Now, everyone's telecommunication skills will pass through the magic web to reach their destination more quickly and steadily. ”

"Ha, don't think I've forgotten the poor people who are in the wilderness at this time. Now, please take out the beast repellent pill that you call 'Big Dung Egg', it is really effective in banishing monsters, it is almost proportional to its smell. And then there's the impulse flare, which you call 'Bright Blind'. The signals emitted by these flares last for an entire month, and they are also synchronized to the magic web. So, hunters. Find a place to set up your camp, you're going to have to suffer a little bit for a while. ”

"Finally, there's our legion of mages. Gladly, even in this period, the Mage Legion was not affected too much. Whether it's the 'Wings of Light and Darkness' in Gardez, or the Shadow of Change in Thomor. Or the four elite divisions of the Su Guard in the Four Elemental Planes. In the coming difficult period, we will have a total of four mage legions, including 22,000 high-level mages and sixteen Grand Arcanists, to guard the major regions of the empire. At the same time, we welcome all people with lofty ideals to take up their staff and contribute to the peace and stability around them, but don't forget to report to the police station. ”

"So finally, let me tell you a little bit about the new discovery of the Imperial Research Institute. We have found that in the places where the barriers of the Ryan space are weaker, a strange aura called 'Breath of Perdition' will permeate. This aura has certain antimatter properties and other effects. Research suspects that this aura may have something to do with the multiple shocks of the Devil's Tide that are currently happening in Ryan. Therefore, we have uploaded the details of the Breath of Perdition to the Demon Net, so that you can consult and study it on your own. ”

"Citizens of the Empire, I'm sorry that we have to go through this at a time when the Empire is in ruins. It has only been thirty years since the establishment of the Fourth Arcane Empire of Ryan, and we may have more difficulties to overcome and more tribulations to go through in the future. But I have never been worried about the future of the Empire, and I believe that the Empire will turn difficulties into nourishment and hardships into wealth. And all of these need everyone to participate and struggle together! I, with all of you, encourage you! Imperial! Be with you! ”

With Douglas's emergency deployment, Ryan's various parts of the country seemed to be a shot in the arm and began to regain calm. People still plan what they're going to do next. Whether it's going to the magic school, or to the defense cave, or even to the direction of the security office, there are many people. People are also starting to stop complaining about the Empire, they have already encountered a lot of things at the beginning of the Empire, and now they don't mind having more to talk about in the future.
