Arcane Lord

Although Niya said that it might be Savile back, Shado still remained fully vigilant. The Tower of Time was originally designed by Savile and built a considerable part.

In addition to the undiscovered summoning circle, no one can be sure whether there are other secret hands. Savile has disappeared for nearly a hundred years, and no one can guarantee that he is still the same person.

In addition to temperament, maybe even the inner and human nature may have changed!

"Niya, are you sure it's your great-grandfather?"

"No, but who else but him could appear in the Tower of Time in this way?"

Looking at Niya's expectant look, Sha Duo couldn't help but sigh secretly. He knew that the reason why Niya was looking forward to Savile's return was not to say that Niya had a deep affection for her great-grandfather whom she had never met. emotion.

It's because of Nia's father, Epps.

It has been two full days since Epps entered the stasis chamber of the Tower of Time. Shado did not feel much about this state of neither life nor death, but Niya could not forget it.

However, after becoming the Grand Arcanist, Shado also went to see Epps at Niya's request, but what Epps had was soul-related aging tissue.

What's more important is that Epps delayed entering the stasis chamber two years ago in order to arrange his funeral. If it had been earlier, Chateau might still have a way.

But now, as long as Epps' stasis is lifted, he won't survive long at all, and stasis cannot be treated by magic.

Xia Duo was unable to both lift the curse and repair the damage to his soul in such a short period of time after lifting the stasis state.

In his opinion, Epps can only continue to sneak into the future in search of possible treatment opportunities. As long as he is alive, the future has unlimited possibilities.

But Niya may not be able to endure it for that long. When she knew something was going on in the plane exploration layer, her excitement was completely written on her face.

But now, what Shado is most worried about is not the invasion of foreign enemies, or Savile's inability to save Epps, but that the Savile who has returned is indeed the same Savile from before, but his mentality has completely changed, and he ignores family ties at all.

If that's the case, not to mention whether Epps can be saved or not, but whether he and Nia can get out of the Tower of Time alive is a question.

Savile had been silent before, and Shado could still pretend that this problem did not exist, and only regarded the guidance sign here as a psychological comfort for Niya.

But now it is very likely that Savile is appearing on the summoning circle, so this problem becomes difficult to avoid.

…

As the illusory figure on the summoning circle gradually became solid, Sha Duo's heart became more and more nervous. He put his arm around Niya and firmly took her back a few steps.

Then he slowly unfolded the arcane fire, using the micro-magic nets he controlled to cover and occupy the surrounding normal magic nets, thereby creating a spell-casting environment more conducive to him.

Niya noticed Shado's actions, but she didn't say anything against it. At this moment, she was almost entirely focused on the person who was about to appear in the summoning circle.

"Buzz——"

The magic net vibrated passively at high frequency for the last time, and the figures in the magic circle were completely solidified. Xia Duo knew that this was the moment, and without any hesitation, he controlled the surrounding magic net to lower a calming field.

At the same time, another stasis field is also ready to go. This spell has only been upgraded to level 9 by him. This was done at the beginning of the month when he was preparing the David String in the Iolum Laboratory.

The 10th ring is more complicated, and it is difficult to qualitatively improve the energy level simply by stacking it. For now, the 9th ring is almost enough.

If the person who appears in the summoning circle is touched by these two spells, there will definitely be no room for resistance. But unfortunately, the person who comes here is not only skilled in casting spells, but is also extremely experienced in the application of spell principles and the reserve of spell elements.

Almost as soon as the calming field fell, he launched the arcane fire, squeezing out a little breathing space in this extremely unfavorable environment for him.

Immediately afterwards, he launched a very targeted attack on the stasis field that Xia Duo was not fully prepared for, each time hitting key elements.

As the saying goes, "Creation is far more difficult than destruction." Soon, Xia Duo's spell became unsustainable. What's worse, before he could disperse the remaining unused spell elements that were destroyed to a discrete state, These spell elements are already controlled by the opponent.

At this moment, Sha Duo was very sure that even if the opponent was not Savile, he must be a very powerful arcanist.

Under this situation, Xia Duo had to admit that he had outsmarted the opponent, thinking that only two spells and the home environment were enough to defeat the opponent, but the opponent taught him a lesson very vividly.

What Xia Duo has to do now is the same as what the previous visitors had to do - destroy the opponent's upcoming spell and wait for an opportunity to launch an attack.

As a result, the scene suddenly froze. Fortunately, Xia Duo was slightly better in terms of spell composition and macro layout, so he was not defeated by the newcomer's skill, rich experience, and more powerful arcane fire.

But the situation is not that optimistic. As long as the opponent is smart enough, he can continuously obtain the specific attributes of unfamiliar spell elements during the fight and integrate them into his own knowledge system.

In such a close and decisive spell duel, it is almost difficult to encrypt your own spell casting operations, and more importantly -

Unless one party moves away immediately, it is almost impossible for this anxious battle to stop naturally. Whoever stops first may be instantly hit by the opponent's spell.

But Xia Duo couldn't escape. If he did, he would have to abandon the Tower of Time.

And his opponent seemed to be fighting for his life at the moment, with no intention of backing down at all, which made Xia Duo feel a bit stuck.

…

However, Xia Duo, who was focused on the spell duel, may have forgotten that there was a third person in the preparation teleportation hall of the plane exploration layer at this time.

Perhaps it was precisely because he subconsciously knew the existence of this third person that he dared to give it a go.

At this moment, Niya finally realized that one of the two people in the battle was her husband and the other was suspected to be her great-grandfather. No matter which one of them was damaged or even killed, she did not want to see them.

As a result, the defense mechanism originally designed to prevent enemies from other planes from counterattacking from the portal during the plane exploration process was finally activated without warning.

In just an instant, the turmoil in the magic network caused by the battle between Xia Duo and the two men was completely calmed down.

In this powerful spell-suppressing field, although Shado can still cast spells with his own arcane fire, he is also affected a lot. The most significant point is that the casting distance is greatly reduced, and he can only affect his own miniature. Magic network.

This prevents him from interfering with the opponent's spellcasting, which means——

In this case, if the two of them want to continue fighting, they must attack and defend with complete spells whose actual effects are undetermined, and cannot attack and defend at the level of spell elements.

This makes the intensity of the battle drop sharply, but the level of danger rises sharply. If a key spell is not guarded, it may lead to immediate defeat.
