Arcane Lord

Just like the day before yesterday, after receiving the transmission circle pass key sent by Xia Duo, Rodit and others quickly transmitted it without any delay.

"Lord Xia Duo, I have to trouble you again."

"It's no trouble, it's all agreed upon in advance. For the ruins, what have you prepared this time?"

"I didn't find anything very useful. I just asked for a few [predictive blessings] from the Severdon Temple, which cost my father a lot of favors."

Rodit said he didn't care much, but Shado could see a little pride in his eyes. It must not be that simple to be able to exchange the favor of a senior arcanist for a blessing.

Although Xia Duo has never heard of [Predictive Blessing], it can be seen from the name that it may be related to prophecy. Perhaps it allows the blessed person to know the crisis in advance and avoid the past.

But prophecy is too mysterious and may not be very accurate,\\band this is where Chateau's five [Stability Amulets] have a chance to play a role.

Then, Xia Duo sold Rodit and others the [Stability Amulet] he had prepared, "Although this amulet cannot allow you to predict danger in advance, it can prevent you from falling into the ether when encountering plane separation." "

In fact, the most dangerous aspect of this ruins exploration operation is living in another world. If this can be eliminated, other dangers can be dealt with by a group of high-level mages.

Exploring the relics of this kind of spellcaster still requires cracking the protective settings of the original owner. If you are lucky or smart enough, you may even avoid fighting at all.

Of course, to be on the safe side, make as many preparations as you can.

Rodit and others did not reject the [Stability Amulet] prepared by Sha Duo. When asked about the specific price, Sha Duo smiled knowingly and said what he had thought about for a long time:

"I am also a participant in this ruins exploration operation. It is also beneficial to me to prepare these talismans for you. Just charge the material cost, 6,000 gold coins!"

That being said, Rodit is not a completely ignorant novice. In terms of age, he is even about ten years older than Shado! (The time consumed in the projection plane is not calculated)

Even though he knew that Xia Duo's cost of making these five talismans might be less than 6,000 gold coins, he still settled the settlement at the market price of normal talisman-type magic items:

"No, Lord Shado, the manpower of a senior arcanist should not be so ignored. I think fifteen thousand gold coins is a more appropriate number."

Rodit would never have imagined that the cost of these five [Stability Amulets] was less than 3,000 gold coins. Even if they were sold for 6,000 gold coins, Xia Duo would still make a small profit.

As for fifteen thousand, then Xia Duo would have made a lot of money.

With the intention of making money, Shado did not refuse Rodit's offer. Although he knew that the lowest price of talisman-type magic items on the market was about 2,000 gold coins, who made him a senior arcanist!

This identity alone is worth a premium of 1,000 gold coins, not to mention the [Stability Amulet] was specially made for their exploration operation.

If it weren't for the background of Rodit and others, and if he hadn't already participated in this operation, Shado would have been able to charge a sky-high price for other ordinary spell casters.

As long as they want to continue exploring and taking action, they are not afraid of not buying. This is the so-called seller's market.

…

After instructing Rodit and others to link themselves with the [Stability Amulet], Shado checked it over and made sure there was no problem before letting them leave the watchtower.

Of course, before that, the spiritual link must be established.

Just like last time, after Rodit and others arrived at Zenis, they still chose to leave the city first and go deep into the forest for a certain distance before opening the teleportation gate and teleporting directly to the foggy area inside the ruins.

After that, they flew all the way to the foot of the Mage Tower.

Since everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared, and although the outside of the Mage Tower is considered a ruin, except for Xia Duo, others are not interested in the environment here. They want to obtain real treasures.

Therefore, when they arrived here, Rodit and the others entered the mage tower without any delay, and Sha Duo had no objection to this.

These people are not his puppets, and they do not require his immediate intervention when there are no emergencies or abnormalities.

Frank, the high-level mage and swordsinger, took the lead and entered the dark entrance of the mage tower. Behind him was Rodit's friend, high-level mage Wei Ji.

After that were Rodit and Steele from Morien Tower, and at the bottom was Rodit's father's student, ruin exploration expert, and senior mage Abner.

Just when the four people in front disappeared into the darkness at the entrance to the mage tower, and Abner had already stepped towards the dark entrance with one foot, Sha Duo suddenly discovered something unusual——

No, to be more prepared, Abner's many senses received abnormal information, but his subconscious was unable to realize this and transform it into some kind of intuition or inspiration.

But this information was known to Sha Duo through the spiritual link. Sha Duo discovered the anomaly that Abner could not detect, so he immediately issued a warning:

"Abner, squat down!"

After receiving the signal, Abner hesitated for a moment, but then quickly sank down. However, with that moment of hesitation, Abner's magical aura suddenly dimmed a bit.

"what's the situation?"

Rodit and others learned from the spiritual link that there was something going on outside, and immediately retreated from the mage tower, and then saw the scene in front of them——

Abner fell to the ground, and the protective aura on his body flickered on and off, as if something invisible was constantly attacking him.

"Rodit, Steele, do you still remember the [Protection-2-14] spell in the green field plane? Follow my command and cast the spell together without any hesitation! Frank, do you know about force field blessing? Go and chop off Frank's head The space half a foot above, quick!”

Fortunately, the communication within the spiritual link was extremely fast. When Rodit and others saw Abner's accident, they couldn't help but feel that it would be my turn next, so they showed no resistance to Sha Duo's command.

It will take some time for Rodit and Steele to jointly cast spells, but as a swordsinger, Flack's reaction is extremely fast.

Almost at the same time as he heard Xia Duo's instructions, the right hand that had been on the hilt of the sword when he exited the mage tower suddenly tightened his grip and then pulled it out.

As the sword was pulled out, a spiritual light appeared on the sword covered with runes from weak to strong. Before anyone could blink, the tip of Flack's sword touched Abner's head. .

It was exactly about half a foot from where Xia Duo said yes.
