Arcane Lord

This news is really shocking!

Lord Doraithan Hawke is suddenly the Grand Arcanist!

Well, it’s not sudden. A few years ago, Lord Hawke was recognized as the being closest to the Grand Arcanist. Isn’t it normal to become a Grand Arcanist on the spot?

But the problem is——

There is also an arcanist named "Aquiline Hawk" in the Hawk Territory who is imprisoned in the Tower of Time by Shado!

When he thought of this, Xia Duo felt his scalp tingle. He remembered that a year ago, during the Snow Melting Competition, Lord Hawke asked him to meet at the Austrian and French Federation.

The main content of the discussion between the two was about Aquilaine. At that time, Lord Hawke mentioned that Aquilaine was induced by the mysterious organization to offend the Tower of Time, and the mysterious organization has repeatedly targeted the Saville Territory.

The Hawk Territory, Savile Territory, and Tower of Time should be allies!

At that time, Chateau deceived him by saying that the matter needed investigation, and until today, a year later, Aquiline has not been released.

According to his original idea, he was going to lock up Aquiline for ten years, at least until the danger to him was eliminated.

Shado felt really uneasy about releasing a hostile arcanist. With Aquiline in his hands, he lost an enemy with obvious hostility and could also restrain Lord Hawke a little.

But now, the situation suddenly changed significantly, Lord Hawke became the Grand Arcanist!

At this point, even if Sha Duo has the Seven Towers behind him and the support of Iolum, he is at an absolute disadvantage in terms of his right to speak.

This is not to say that Lord Hawke may be an elf spy and can be ignored. The great arcanist's right to speak is much higher than that of the senior arcanist!

Not to mention his own strength. Although Sha Duo is not afraid of Hawke, it is almost impossible to defeat him or even kill him.

In other words, if Lord Hawke brings up the issue of releasing Aquilaine again, Shado will hardly be able to refuse unless he also becomes a Grand Arcanist immediately.

But this is obviously not realistic.

It is unrealistic to expect Iolum to be strong. Although this nominal teacher is about to officially become the president of the Austrian Law Federation, he is more like a mediator. If it is obviously unfair, wouldn't he lose his foundation? lost.

If he can't even do the most basic justice, how can others be willing to support him? It would be more practical to establish a small circle of connections yourself.

In fact, Xia Duo knew very well that it was interesting enough for Iolum to tell him the news in advance, and he really shouldn't expect too much.

"What do you think?" Iolum asked.

"Netheril has another great arcanist, and its overall strength has increased. I am sincerely happy."

In fact, if Aquilaine didn't happen, Sha Duo would be quite happy, but now, no matter how he said it, it was a bit untrue.

"Slippery!"

Iolum glanced at Congenio, exchanged glances, and then said to Shado: "I know there is a misunderstanding between you and Lord Hawke. Teacher Ain is willing to make peace for you. You only need to tell that Just release Aquiline, what do you think?"

"Thank you, Master Congenio, for your love and care. I am willing to accept your mediation."

Xia Duo thought about it for a while, but finally decided not to refuse. In fact, it was not up to him to refuse.

In Netheril, the Grand Arcanists are almost free to do whatever they want, with almost no restrictions. It can even be said that even if they directly surrender to the elves, they are free.

It would be okay if there were other great arcanists to check and balance it, but if not, it would be too troublesome.

Even if Xia Duo himself is not afraid, aren't the Saville and Daxia leaders also afraid? Of course, if things really get to that point, Hawker won't be able to escape.

In fact, it is unlikely to develop to that extent. Once someone targets ordinary people, the Severnton Council will intervene.

But the degree of "wantonness" is worthy of scrutiny.

Xia Duo needs a stable development environment most. Whether it is himself or the budding magical civilization, there is really no need to gamble on other people's methods now.

Being able to make peace is a matter of course.

…

Afterwards, Shado sat behind him under Iolum's arrangement.

Soon, people began to arrive in this circular hall with a high dome. Of course, these people were similar to Xia Duo, and they all came to listen.

In addition to Federation directors such as Brundes and Auron, there are also senior arcanists who have the authority to come and observe on their own, or anyone brought here.

Theoretically, Shado could also bring Niya, or even Gibson and Harlan, but it would be silly to do so.

Although the specific levels of these mages present could not be seen, from their clothes, demeanor, and accessories, it could be roughly judged that they were all starting at a high level.

These people are sitting on chairs near the wall on the periphery of the circular hall. In the center of the hall is a huge round table, evenly surrounded by fifteen seats, corresponding to the fifteen great arcane masters in Netheril today. It also indicates equality for all.

In the center of the round table, there was a swimming blue glow, with some mysterious symbols emerging from time to time. Sha Duo guessed that this might be something like a projector, or simply a decoration.

As the seats outside the hall gradually filled up, the Grand Arcanists also entered one by one.

Compared to the spectators like Xia Duo who walked in from outside, almost all of the great arcanists entered by teleportation.

Until Congenio announced the start of the meeting, Shado didn't find any great arcanist coming on foot.

Moreover, not all the fifteen seats in the middle were occupied.

Those present, in addition to Congenio and Iolum who were about to hand over, were the seven great arcanists from the Seven Towers, as well as Braun from the gray-white Spiral Tower, and Vader from the Wisdom Tower.

Of course, there was also Lord Hawke. When this guy arrived, it caused a burst of whispers from the outside observers, but none of the great arcanists in the middle said anything, and there were not many observers.

There were only twelve Grand Arcanists in total, and three seats were vacant. However, Congenio had already announced the start of the meeting, so he must not be coming.

Judging from public information alone, the Grand Arcanists who did not come were Byron, Brod, and Kennap.

As for Kaos and Jenna, although the former only appeared some time ago, it is clear that he is dead in official public information, while the latter has never been made public.

If all these people are present, there may be two more seats.

Just as Chateau was thinking about why Byron, Broad, and Kennap didn't come on such an important occasion, Congenio had already begun to announce the first topic of the day——
