Arcane Lord

Chapter 212 Black Hand

Although Xia Duo has long been prepared to finish the intermediate and advanced parts, it would be outrageous if he didn’t even finish the intermediate part!

Just when he was having fun, he was suddenly interrupted, which was really annoying. Xia Duo closed the book carelessly, took a few deep breaths, and calmed down.

Then he reopened the "Intermediate Arcane Geometry". This time, Xia Duo read it much slower, savoring it carefully, enjoying the feast of the mystery of magic.

There is no calendar day in the mage tower. If the tower spirit hadn't reminded him, Xia Duo wouldn't have known that it was already dusk as time passed.

After getting up and moving his body a few times, Xia Duo secretly regretted that after the arcane competition, he had left physical training behind. A strong physique is not a capital that can be wasted.

Fortunately, it was only interrupted for three days, so it was not difficult to resume. Just before dinner was served, Xia Duo was active in the reception room.

When the dinner was delivered, Sha Duo had completed a set of basic actions, but what Sha Duo didn't expect was that it was Edrich who delivered the meal to him today.

"How could it be you? Where's Walter?" Shado opened the door and signaled Edrich to come in and talk. Walter was an ordinary apprentice who had recently delivered meals to Shado.

"Walter was tricked by a foreign mage and his foot was injured. I saw him on the road and knew it was for you, so I took it over on the way."

Edrich put the lunch box on the table and stood there, seeming a little reserved, unlike before when he came over and just found a place to sit down.

"Sit down first, don't stand." Sha Duo pushed Edrich gently, picked up the lunch box on the table and opened it to see that the food was still the same, nothing new.

While Xia Duo was eating, he asked Edrich, "You just said you were on your way, what's going on?"

When it came to the main topic, Edrich was a little coy, which made Xia Duo feel a little embarrassed. "If you have anything to say, just tell me. Is there anything else that we can't say between you and me?"

"My father would like to invite you to a dinner party at home."

"Dinner? Your family?" Xia Duo thought carefully. Edrich's father was Derrick, the lord's business director, and he was in charge of several chambers of commerce.

Xia Duo immediately thought of the development of the Great Xia Territory. He just came back from Mrs. Patty yesterday, and today he was invited by Derrick, so he had to make such associations.

But Xia Duo also knows that the real relationship between him and Derrick is probably Edrich. After all, the development of the Great Xia Territory does need the support of the Chamber of Commerce, but does the Savile Territory not need it?

There is no way he would ignore his own family and come here to help him. This is unjustifiable.

Thinking about it, Xia Duo gradually had an idea in his mind, "Okay, I will be there on time tomorrow."

In addition to being a mage, he now also has the identity of a pioneer. Perhaps this is the reason why Derrick invited him.

"Great!" Edrich smiled immediately after hearing Xia Duo's agreement, "I'll go back with you tomorrow."

Then Edrich talked to Shado about the situation in his family, which he had rarely mentioned before, such as his father's strictness, his mother's love, and the fighting spirit between brothers.

While eating and listening, Xia Duo had a more intuitive and three-dimensional understanding of Edrich's family and the situation at home.

At the same time, he also roughly guessed the purpose of Derrick inviting him.

Soon, Chateau settled the dinner, and Edrich also left in time, and Chateau began his evening work again.

At the same time, on the top floor of the Tower of Time, there was the lord's study.

The person sitting behind the desk at this moment is not Lord Epps, but Niya. She is now gradually taking over the affairs of the territory. Many orders seem to be issued from the lord, but in fact it is Niya who is handling it.

Lord Epps and Aberke were drinking tea and chatting in a corner of the study. They seemed very leisurely, but their eyes turned to Niya from time to time.

"Have you been so lazy lately?" Aberke pouted angrily in Niya's direction and smiled, "Do you know what Thain has been saying lately? He said you should have let Niya take over."

"Haha, this old guy, didn't he blame me for pushing Niya out so early, but now - hum, I am the most incompetent in the Savile family."

He said that he was the most incompetent, but there was a hint of pride in Epps's eyes. Niya was indeed much better than him, whether it was magic talent or dominance ability.

There is a successor to the Savile family!

"By the way, what are you going to do with the people who have stayed recently?" Aiboike suddenly mentioned the foreign mages recruited by Epps, "They have ruined the atmosphere in the Mage Tower recently!"

Lord Epps didn't care about this, "Don't worry, they will be busy when the development plan is launched!"

What he didn't say was that he was also going to use these foreign mages as a way to test the elf mages. The hearts of these people were not in the Saville Territory at all, and they only stayed to get a higher salary than in the core area of ​​the empire.

Once the Saville Territory can no longer satisfy them, they will leave here without any hesitation.

Therefore, for these people, Lord Epps is ready to call them to death. Now let them feel comfortable for a few days. After a few days, they will know why mages never sign sacred contracts easily.

There are so many loopholes that can be exploited, and they can be exploited with good reason, especially when a high-ranking cleric is one of our own.

Thinking of those people's expressions, Epps couldn't help but make a sympathetic look, but then he laughed.

Aberke was a little confused by the laughter, "Eps, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, I just thought of something funny." Epps didn't want to show his vulgar taste in front of this old friend, so he quickly changed the subject, "Do you have any clues about the black hands behind the Plantagenet Chamber of Commerce?"

This was what Epps personally asked Albock to do after the death of Fairbus of the Liaton Chamber of Commerce. Various circumstances indicated that a pair of black hands was secretly spying on the Saville Territory.

From destroying the olive groves, to killing Ferbers, to transporting grain to Conifera City, this is no longer a temptation, but a clear malice.

According to Archmage Auron, someone is eyeing the territory, but there is no more specific news. The only clue Epps has at present is the Plantagenet Chamber of Commerce.

The person who destroyed the olive grove could not be found, nor could the person who killed Fairbus be found, but the person who transferred the food was the Plantagenet Chamber of Commerce.

"According to the account of the steward named Harvey, the person who controlled Fairbus came on a cargo ship from the Plantagenet Chamber of Commerce, but he didn't know the news after that."

As he spoke, Aibok took out a stack of parchment from his dimensional bag, handed it to Lord Epps, and then said:

"The transshipped grain was shipped from Angli. Archmage Angli has been contacting me some time ago and asked me to release all the people from the Plantagenet Chamber of Commerce and compensate for the losses. However, he has not contacted me since the day before yesterday. ”

Epps casually recalled that the torture record on the parchment contained nothing of value, and it was easy for Archmage Angry to stop contacting him——

[New Biquge www.xxbiquge.xyz] Three days ago, several Archmages appeared at the Savile Territory's celebration, and behind them stood the Grand Arcanist, or even directly represented the Grand Arcanist.
