Arcane Lord

Inside the floating city.

Shado was surprised to find that Adolfel Fortress had completely given up resistance, and even the spellcasters on the suspended platform in the south of the upper square began to disperse.

He originally thought that the Sluvende elves would resist to the end, but he didn't expect that the floating city had only flown halfway and was not directly above the fortress when the opponent gave up.

This made him feel a little disappointed, because the true power of [Light of Annihilation] has not been fully demonstrated yet!

However, the power currently displayed is enough to control the direction of a local war. As for a full-scale war, Xia Duo is not optimistic. At least for now, [Light of Annihilation] is not enough to use up the entire war potential of a big country. Eliminate it.

The war spells that Xia Duo now possesses require material carriers. If they are used too much, they will naturally be worn out and require maintenance or even replacement. Now, this set is the only one on the floating city, and it is the spell carrier originally provided by Yin Orum. .

Although Xia Duo can also make these carrier magic weapons himself, a carrier magic weapon corresponding to a war spell contains at least dozens of relatively complex high-quality magic items, and he will not be able to come up with spare ones in a short period of time.

Therefore, after Adolfel Fortress gave up resistance, Shado stopped using [Light of Annihilation]. What he showed now was actually pretty much the same. In this case, retaining a little suspense might be more deterrent.

…

Taking advantage of the gap while the floating city continued to fly, Sha Duo came to the planting layer of the floating city and personally closed the door for Naris.

"The war is over, Master Naris, you can leave!"

"leave?"

Naris, who had just experienced this incident, did not react for a while and was stunned for a few seconds. Then he seemed to have thought of something and quickly asked Xia Duo:

"Is Sruvander still there?"

"Still, the way the war ends may be a little different than you think."

As he said that, Sha Duo pointed his finger and transformed a real-time image between the two. It was the Erlan elves who he invited to the floating city. He told Naris:

"The Northland Alliance has passed a resolution asking Yeerlan to stop the war, and I responded to this resolution and personally stopped the war."

"Personally stopped the war?" Naris was a little confused.

However, Xia Duo did not explain too much, he just said: "You will find out when you return to Adolfel Fortress and ask around!"

These words almost made Nares jump up, because in his opinion, the fact that Adolfel Fortress is controlled by Sluvende should be a secret that very few people know, and Shado not only knew it, but was even willing to let him go. go back.

This meant that the external situation had really changed dramatically. At this moment, his heart seemed to have grown wings, and he wanted to fly back immediately, but——

"Observer Shado, can I leave now?"

"Of course, but before leaving, I have one more thing to ask you for help."

"Observer Xia Duo, please tell me -" In this case, Nares just wants to return to his hometown. No matter what Xia Duo wants him to do, he will agree without hesitation. As for whether the matter should be done, he will find out after he returns. Let’s talk about it after the situation is over.

tomato

Xia Duo could see that Naris was eager to return home, but he had no intention of embarrassing the other party. The so-called help was just a casual mention. He had ways to achieve his goal——

"Mage Naris, I would like to invite the leaders of your organization to come to my place to discuss the aftermath of this battle. For the sake of the stability of order in the North, please be sure to bring the message. Whether you come or not is entirely up to your leaders. Decide."

"Where is this?" Nares asked doubtfully.

He has been observing carefully since he was kidnapped here by Xia Duo not long ago. It seems to be some kind of man-made environment, but it is filled with the familiar smell of the mysterious lock.

Do humans also have such exquisite mysteries? Naris was very puzzled. He even suspected that he was sent to Yeerlan by Shado.

But at this time, the situation seemed to be a little different from what he had guessed. This might really be human territory, but it was just a mysterious lock——

Naris didn't dare to think any further, for fear that the other party would no longer be willing to let him go.

…

Sha Duo didn't want to know, nor did he need to know, about Narisi's various psychological changes. Even when the other party finally asked "Where is this?", he didn't answer directly. He still said "I'll find out when I get back." the other party.

After sending Naris off, Shado sent messages to Yin Olum and Brundes one after another, to exchange his current plans and feedback on the use of war spells on real battlefields with the former.

For Brundes, he more formally asked the Seven Towers for help and changed his status as an observer to a "peacekeeper". This was also in response to the recent Northland Alliance resolution, but it was just a matter of getting on the bus first and then filling in the votes.

As long as Seven Towers is willing to help, this operation is not difficult to accomplish.

The other is to hint to the Seven Towers about his views on the aftermath of the battle. Of course, it is indispensable to reveal the bottom of the floating city. However, some words are not convenient to say through magic transmission, so they are more vague.

Xia Duo only said that he had mastered a war spell program that was easy for individuals to implement, and that the effect had been tested in actual combat. He did not mention any more details.

Anyway, Yin Orem was not prepared to hide the secret of [Mythra] from the Seven Towers forever. In other words, in the process of designing and developing Mythra, he had a lot of help from the Seven Towers.

It doesn't matter if you say more or less now. Xia Duo is not worried that Qita will hold him back. This matter will be beneficial to Qita after all.

…

After contacting Severington, Shado finally found the Yerlan mages who were invited by him to be a monk. At this time, several senior mages led by him were sitting in the corner of the public square of the Floating City with frustrated and confused faces. .

Seeing Xia Duo appear, one of the golden elf mage immediately stood up and asked: "Human, what are you doing? How could the Northland Alliance pass such a resolution!"

"Although I think I have some influence, my influence is not big enough to influence the countries of the Northland Alliance to make independent decisions!"

Seeing the look of madness in the other person's eyes, Xia Duo couldn't help but shook his head, "Didn't you contact the country? Don't you have the most basic communication verification mechanism with the country?"

The main reason for inviting the other party to the Floating City was to temporarily isolate these forces, which could also be regarded as being held hostage. After all, except for the Adofel Fortress, Sluvend really did not have much ability to resist Ye Erlan.

Although the invitation method was a bit simple and crude, Xia Duo did not humiliate the other party and even allowed the other party to contact the country.

The current situation is indeed a bit difficult for these Yeerlan elves to accept. First, the Sluvende War that was supposed to be easy to win encountered an accident, which almost made it a disaster.

Later, I heard about the Northland Alliance's resolution, which almost completely denied the legality of Ye Erlan's war, and also denied the achievements of these actual participants.

As for being saved by humans, this fact itself does not put much psychological burden on these Yeerlan elves. Instead, it means "it is your honor to save me".

The only dissatisfaction is probably that humans have such strength.
