Arcane Lord

Just when Skoum was about to lose control of his emotions, Randall suddenly suggested: "There may not be only one survivor in this matter. How could an ancient existence like Thorne die so easily!

"Scomb, I know there is some connection between Giles Tower and Thorne. I don't want to explore anything, but I think you can try to contact Thorne yourself."

Randall's words made Skum think of something. His emotions that were about to get out of control were immediately controlled, but he was still angry, but his anger at the moment was not all directed at the people of the Seven Towers.

"According to the contract between Giles Tower and Thorne, the summoning circle is always in operation. I checked it before coming here, and there was no reply from the other party." Skum said expressionlessly.

Due to the special characteristics of the eternal Holy Spirit and the astral realm itself, if there is no continuous time anchor on the main plane, then the eternal Holy Spirit will not be able to establish contact with the current moment of the main plane.

For people in the main plane at the current moment, the eternal Holy Spirit only existed in the past. The moment he achieved the eternal Holy Spirit, he disappeared.

In other words, the Eternal Holy Spirit does not actually exist compared to the present. He is just a legendary figure who existed in the past.

The existence of the summoning circle is to provide the eternal Holy Spirit with a time anchor of the current moment, and to summon the eternal Holy Spirit that is free from time into the present world.

In other words, if Thorne is not dead, his existence in the astral world can be infinitely longer than the time that Skoum is summoned in the main plane.

During this infinite amount of time, Thorne did not reply, which meant that Thorne would probably never reply.

Although Skum was willing to believe in this possibility, he still had to tell the fact in front of everyone.

For everyone on the main plane, the Eternal Holy Spirit was achieved more than a hundred years ago, but for the Eternal Holy Spirit itself, the time he has experienced may be longer than the existence of humans on the main plane!

What kind of things would such an ancient existence do? Skum, the "young" leader who had just taken over Giles Tower, was very unsure.

In other words, when he told everyone that Thorne did not respond to the call, a large part of his heart actually thought that there was something wrong with Thorne.

Silence soon fell in the projection hall. Even Harris did not say anything to irritate Scoum. Everyone was thinking about the possible reasons or even conspiracy behind Thorne's disappearance.

After a long time, Badigal took the lead in breaking the weird atmosphere and turned his attention to the only non-Seven Towers person in the hall:

"Your Excellency Iolum, what do you think of this matter? Do you think this is an accident or the beginning of a conspiracy?"

"I have no idea."

Iolum shook his head, and he just pretended not to see the expectant looks of everyone, "But whether it is an accident or a conspiracy, before tomorrow, there must be a definite result that can withstand everyone's inspection! "

It’s easy to come up with a result, but it’s not easy to get a result that can withstand everyone’s inspection. The biggest problem here is——

Now even they themselves are not sure of the real cause of Cliff's death. Even if they want to forge a result, they don't know where to start, and it is even harder to withstand the inspection of others.

Iolum's words once again revealed the most difficult part of this matter to everyone in the Seven Towers. However, in addition to the general premise of safeguarding the overall interests of the Seven Towers, everyone in the Seven Towers also had the small idea of ​​seeking more benefits for their own family.

A great arcanist with a special identity died in Giles Tower. This matter is not a trivial matter. If it is not handled properly, the consequences will be even more serious than if all the leaders of the Seven Towers die.

Under this situation, Rao Sicom was dissatisfied with everyone's attitude, but after calming down, he still had to lower his posture and cast a look at everyone for help.

In response, Badigal frowned and did not respond. Others were also thinking about something, but Harris hesitated to speak, which made Skum feel irritable.

He realized that everyone was slow to express their stance, perhaps waiting for him to express their stance first, so Skoum endured the irritability in his heart and gave his bottom line:

"Everyone, the reasons behind this matter are complex, and it involves the interests and reputation of the Seven Towers. It is beyond the capabilities of the Giles High Tower family. I hope that you can put the Seven Towers first and not hesitate to assist. Any consumption during the period will be borne by Giles. Scott is in charge."

This means that he is only willing to pay for the losses related to this matter; for any additional losses beyond the scope of this matter, he would rather sacrifice the overall interests of the Seven Towers than provide them.

Skum's words can be regarded as setting a framework for everyone's actions. Badigal and others are not dissatisfied. The same is true for the Seven Towers.

Only Harris, who had been looking forward to using this matter to kill Skoum, did not expect to receive such an answer. However, in front of everyone in the Seven Towers and even Iolum, he did not say anything, just He responded vaguely.

After that, everyone began to discuss their respective tasks. As the leader of the Seven Towers with the greatest prestige after the princess, Badigal first assigned himself a task:

"Before the investigation results come out, the news needs to be temporarily blocked. I will go to the Tower of Glory later to ensure that there will be no trouble there."

Later, Randall also took the initiative to propose: "I can go to the star realm to investigate, and you start from the main plane. In addition, Archbishop Benedictus is a trustworthy elder, and we need to seek his help!"

"Then I will go see Archbishop Benedictus and hope that he can do a prophecy ceremony for this matter for the sake of my father."

Horn's words made Scoum nod repeatedly. If there was anyone present who was most likely to invite Archbishop Benedictus, who had already retired, it was Horn.

Horn's father was once the lord of Benedictus. Even if Benedictus was later promoted to the bishop of the Grand Temple, this master-slave relationship would not change.

In fact, it was precisely because of Horn's father's recommendation that Benedictus was able to develop better and become the highly respected archbishop he is today.

If it were anyone else, they would have to go in the name of Severton Council, but this would not be conducive to blocking the news.

And with Benedictus's current status, even if he wants to issue an order in the name of Parliament, there are still many cumbersome procedures to go through.

On the contrary, it is not as efficient and convenient as using Horn's personal relationship.

It's just that such a personal relationship is difficult to measure in terms of value. Thinking of this, Skum can't help but feel a little sick.

After Horn, several other great arcanists also took the initiative to participate in this investigation. Even Harris received a mission to communicate with the ambassadors of the elves and dwarves.

This investigation is bound to cause quite a stir, as it may cause misjudgments among the elves and dwarves. Timely communication is also necessary.

Among the seven towers, Harris is very good at this skill.
