Arcane Lord

If not, it’s not really a loss. After all, you’ve got a new spell. Why do you still want to go back to Griffith to reason with him?

Sha Duo could only comfort himself. After returning to the mage tower, he immediately unfolded the scroll of the spiritual spell. Unlike when he was in the store just now, he could check it carefully.

It was indeed a new spell that was very different from all the spells he had come into contact with before. However, Sha Duo could not yet decide whether it was a spiritual spell or not.

But with a new magic base, this transaction is not a loss.

Xia Duo couldn't wait to take out his notes and start recording. The time to learn how to unfold the scroll was limited, so he had to seize the time. If the recording was completed before the scroll expired, he could actually use the scroll to see what effect it had.

While taking notes, Sha Duo was also calculating and reconstructing this spell through arcane geometry. But the more it continued, the more Sha Duo felt that this spell might not be as simple as a mental spell.

He simply gave up on understanding and concentrated on recording. The speed immediately increased, and it took two or three hours for Xia Duo to completely record.

Because a written record is used, the description of the spellcasting details (the operation of the magic network) must be as precise as possible without any ambiguity.

Fortunately, the mages have long formed a set of conventional expressions about spell records. Coupled with the scientific thinking brought from the earth, Xia Duo believes that his spell notes should be more accurate than ordinary people.

After recording, he checked it twice before putting away the notes and scrolls. Sha Duo did not practice the spell immediately, but called the tower spirit.

"Tower spirit, command: Inquire, are there any humans in custody on the negative level? Can it be used for magic experiments?"

"Mage Xia Duo, there are currently 2 humans who can be used for experiments."

"I want to apply for one!"

"..."

Ta Ling's silence was as expected by Sha Duo. His current authority was not enough to reserve a live experiment directly from his residence.

…

When we came to the underground level, we still had that depressing feeling. The roars and wailings of various creatures were endless. The last and only time we came here was with Master Jose.

This time he came alone, and the experiment was naturally led by himself. The emotions in his heart were very complicated. The last time it was an orc, this time it was a human.

Although this is a Nese person and a person from another world, the same hands, feet, and head still make him feel like a creature hurting its own kind.

The seemingly highly ordered Mage Tower is actually real!

But the emotion is emotion after all. When he was on Earth, Xia Duo had seen darker things than this, but when it was his turn, his long-standing sense of morality still bound him.

He feels that today will usher in a major breakthrough. No one can predict whether he will fall into decline or reshape and sublimate.

At this moment, Xia Duo suddenly had the urge to escape. Experimenting with an unrelated human being was completely different from killing Old Neil before. He felt at ease and happy to kill Old Neil, but now——

A little uneasy, a little afraid, and even a hint of excitement hidden deep in his heart. Nese has no laws on earth, and the spell caster is aloof.

Xia Duo didn't know how he applied to the mage on duty. He didn't come back to his senses until he came to a cell and looked at the metal fence that exuded cold light and coldness.

An unkempt middle-aged man squatted in the corner. His clothes were in tatters. He was not shackled, and there was no binding magic inside. He looked like an ordinary person.

Sha Duo took out the learning scroll and slowly unfolded it, but he was not inspired immediately. He was still hesitating, or in other words, he was seeking a psychological fulcrum for his behavior.

Regardless of whether he was deceiving himself or not, Xia Duo didn't want to let himself become too fast. Although he knew what was best for him, he still had to have a bottom line.

Perhaps this is the so-called sense of moral superiority, but Chateau prefers to call it "personality perfection" or "spiritual civilization construction."

The mage holds great power. If there is no perfect personality to control the power, the final outcome will be destruction.

Xia Duo couldn't figure it out in the past, but as the power he mastered gradually grew stronger, the power itself would seduce him. After all, he could achieve his goal simply and crudely. Who wants to think too much?

Once such a trend takes shape, it will be difficult to turn back. This may be the case with the destruction of Nese in that game on Earth.

Chateau never believed in invincible power, but he believed there was unlimited room for progress.

In front of the prison, words such as "harmony between man and nature" and "harmonious development" flashed through Xia Duo's mind quickly, including ancient wisdom and modern exploration.

In an instant, countless ideas are stirring, colliding into a gradually mature personality.

After thinking for a moment, Sha Duo activated the scroll without hesitation.

Living in a large environment, his morality can only restrain the inside for the time being, but cannot restrain the outside world. After clarifying his own understanding, he will no longer be confused by these.

"The saint is not stagnant in things, but can move with the world."

In today's world, only the strong can make the rules. If he is the strongest, then he can make the world run according to the rules he sets.

Thinking like this, Xia Duo suddenly felt a little dangerous. Disputes involving ideas were often the domain of gods. He was still just an insignificant low-level mage.

It’s really a long way to go!

…

After the scroll was activated, Sha Duo only "saw" the magic net in front of him rolling. He waited for a moment, but in the end no magic effect appeared!

The ink marks on the activated scroll have disappeared. It seems that the activation was successful, and the middle-aged man in the corner of the prison did not react at all.

Xia Duo shouted tentatively, "Stand up!"

The man's head tilted, but no matter how much he did, Xia Duo shouted twice more, but instead of standing up, the man gave a weak sneer, "Master Mage, you are stupid with magic. If you want to kill me, I will kill you." Come on! Don't waste my time!"

"..."

Xia Duo was not sure whether the spell on the scroll was activated, but even if it was activated, it probably wasn't the so-called [Charming Humans].

That man showed no signs of being charmed at all!

Soon, the magic net in front of Xia Duo has subsided. Does this mean that the unknown spell is completely over? Or is there no spell at all?

Can't judge!

"Did Griffiths lie to me? Or did he fail to control it after activating the scroll?"

A big question mark appeared in Xia Duo's mind. Ignoring the prisoners who were still calling, Xia Duo immediately returned to the sixth floor.

He is now considered a person with someone behind him. When he encounters a problem, he still has to ask.

…
