Arcane Lord

Of course, Xia Duo will not belittle himself. Although he is not a genius, it does not mean that he will definitely lose to a genius.

First of all, the definition of victory or success is not limited to the academic field. You can not be the top frontier explorer, but you can also be the most successful leader of civilization.

Secondly, even in the academic field, when there are life-extending spells, there is no knowledge that cannot be mastered, only knowledge that has not been discovered.

As long as we can follow up quickly, we can also be tied for first place at the same time!

This requires a more mature environment for academic exchanges and achievement sharing. In other words, becoming the leader of this order will naturally obtain this part of the authority.

Just like the current Tower of Time, when members of the Tower of Time make achievements, Shado can also share them simultaneously.

If this model is expanded, or there is communication between multiple systems, it will be similar to the academic environment on earth.

Before the arrival of the new era, Xia Duo, who has become a senior arcana, has already stood at the end of most people in the future. What else can he be dissatisfied with?

He is still confident about whether he can create the "Xia Duo Era".

…

Taking a step back, even if countless people surpass them in the future, living in a civilization that surpasses senior arcanists and even grand arcanists will be much better than it is now.

It is similar to asking a modern person on earth whether they would rather be an ordinary member of the future science fiction era or an emperor of the past feudal era. It is estimated that the vast majority of people will choose the former.

After all, the further the times develop, the various experiences in the advanced era will completely cover all the experiences in the past.

If the current magical world has become a god and has immortality, will it remain unchanged and not make progress? Who knows that in the future not all people will become gods, but on top of that, more newer scenery will appear.

In the final analysis, as long as they overcome the "me-only" thinking, the vast majority of people will make the choice that is best for their own interests and the interests of the times.

Xia Duo has a psychological need to be respected by others, but his need for this respect is far from the level of "self-respect".

In fact, even if you want to, it is impossible to achieve it. There is a god above his head, and in front of him, there are now more than a dozen great arcanists sitting, and there are even many senior arcanists like him around him.

Xia Duo wasn't sure if he would do that if he really had the opportunity to "do it all for himself", but at least now, from his own heart, he wouldn't do that!

…

After briefly stating his future governance philosophy and principles, Iolum officially began to perform his duties as president: "Now let's start a new topic——

"Regarding the matter of Elfaran inviting Master Nese to Erintal for magic exchanges, the Sevington Council has handed over the matter to the Austrian and French Federation. If you have any suggestions or opinions, please feel free to speak."

After Iolum finished speaking, everyone was silent for a while. Xia Duo looked at the information in his hand and roughly knew that this issue had only arisen in the past year or two. About once every six months, twelve people went to Eilintal for a short exchange. .

Before that, it was usually Ellan, but since Netheril gave up elven magic, the relationship between Ellan and Netheril has been deteriorating.

Going to Yeerland for exchanges is nominally an exchange, but in reality it is more about inquiring about the development of Yeerland. This activity has been solely under the sole responsibility of the Seventon Council, the Seven Towers, since decades ago.

Most of the things that can be brought to the Alfa Federation for discussion are "civilian events" or "unofficial events." With the current relationship between Netheril and Elfaran, it doesn't take much for members of the Seven Towers to go to Erintal. Official channels.

This kind of communication activity is more like an opportunity for the spellcasters outside the Seven Towers.

Soon, Iolum made a conclusion: "Since no one has anything to say, let's leave it to the council!"

This is also a common practice. The twenty-five directors of the council not only represent the will of the fifteen great arcanists, but also represent the will of ten other larger Mage Tower organizations.

The general direction of the various affairs of the Arcane Federation is determined by the fifteen great arcanists, and the specific completion is the responsibility of the twenty-five-member council and its subordinate team of deacons.

…

Next, no one spoke on several topics, until——

"Doraison Hawke sued the Seven Towers for multiple violations during the negotiations on the introduction of new communication spells by the Alfa Federation. He requires the relevant personnel of the Seven Towers to apologize in person!"

When Iolum read this topic, the air in the hall became a bit colder. It's not that no one dares to challenge the Seven Towers at the Grand Arcanist Joint Meeting. In fact, it happens every year, and there are quite a few times. !

The Seven Towers Family has a great cause, and there will always be conflicts of interest with other Mage Tower organizations, and it is common for them to bring trouble to the Austrian Law Federation.

But Doraisin Hawke is different. Strictly speaking, he and Seven Towers do not have much conflict of interest. Anyone who knows about the so-called illegal operations of communication spell negotiations will understand.

So who doesn’t understand?

At least at this time, almost everyone in the hall, including those listening on the periphery, knew about it.

The matter involves elves, especially Cormanthor, who is very hostile to Netheril among the elves. Regarding such a topic, you must be careful when speaking.

Even the Grand Arcanist watches what he says.

But this does not include the other party to the issue - the Seven Towers!

Just when Chateau frowned at Doraison Hawke's unreasonable request, Badigal from the Gustav Tower in the Seven Towers could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He stood up immediately regardless of the presence of outside observers. Pointing at Doleson and yelling:

"You really have the nerve to say this! The communication spell you got by licking the elf's ditch, is that yours? Do you dare to register a patent? And negotiate? Do you really think others don't know your little thoughts? You really want to quarrel, I tell you, you will die first!”

"Badigal! Watch your words!" Iolum scolded in a deep voice.

"snort!"

Badigal glared at Doleson coldly, then turned around and gave Iolum a slight salute, then sat down without saying a word.

Immediately afterwards, Skum, the new controller of Giles Tower, spoke: "During the negotiations between the Arcane Federation and Lord Hawke on the introduction of new communication spells, Lord Hawke has always been secretive about the details of the spell and only used demonstrations. Form is not enough to prove its existence.

"I think this negotiation should not have existed from the beginning. The Seven Towers' stoppage of the negotiation is only to stop the losses of the Austrian and French Federation in time. There is no illegal operation. This issue is baseless and should be dismissed!"

"Doraison, do you have any objection to Skoum's answer?" Iolum asked Lord Hawke again.

"No."

Doleson knew the whole story of this matter very well. It was enough to mention it once. If he messed around any more, he would be the unlucky one. But at the same time, he had no intention of letting Badigal go just like that:

"I ask Badigal to apologize for the words that insulted me just now! If the dignity of the Grand Arcanist is so cheap, then I have nothing to say!"
