Arcane Lord

snap——

Epps closed the magic book in his hand, and his already frowning brows were now frowning deeper. Anyone who is disturbed while thinking quietly will not look good, not to mention——

"Emergency?"

Epps thought, and the book in his hand automatically flew back to the bookshelf. He took care of himself a little and opened the door to the research room.

"Niya, you are the lord of Savile Territory now, how can you panic when something happens!"

Before the door was fully opened, the familiar voice came out. Niya's eyes lit up and she rushed to the door, "Father, an elf relic was found in Sha Duo's territory."

"That's it?" Epps slowly walked out of the door, glanced at Niya, and was very dissatisfied.

"But father, he said that the ruins are in the Mystery Lock! Can I ask him to inform me that the Mystery Lock is about to collapse."

Niya's logic was very clear at this time. She quickly explained: "Once the Mystery Lock collapses, arcanists from the mainland may be attracted, adding variables to the subsequent development of the territory."

Although a pioneering territory like the Saville Territory, by default, all surrounding unexplored land belongs to it, it cannot resist the temptation of someone to intervene.

After all, strictly speaking, these lands are ownerless, and the conventions are just conventions. Now that there is a mystery locked here, who knows whether it will attract people from the mainland to come and enclose the land.

Especially when the princess has issued a development order, if someone moves the development area to the Green Pearl Forest, there will be big trouble.

Maybe someone just needs such an excuse!

"Mystery lock?" Epps muttered. This Elvish word is not easy to pronounce accurately, but even the elves can't fault Epps's pronunciation.

"A mysterious lock was found in Xia Duo's territory? Is the news accurate?" Even though he knew it was unlikely to be false, Epps still asked.

"It should be true. Xia Duo is still in the study. You can ask him personally." Niya said.

"No, I thought about it!" Epps suddenly showed a strange expression, "Wait for me here, I want to check the information!"

After saying that, he disappeared, leaving the surprised Niya standing there, holding back the word "Father" before she could say it.

After a while, Lord Epps came back with an excited smile, "Follow me!"

Then the two of them teleported together into a secret room. Niya recognized it as the family's secret room. After her father announced her as the heir, he handed it over to her.

It's just that she hasn't checked what's here.

Seeing her father carefully unlocking the spell, Niya couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity, "Father, what is there?"

After the ban was lifted, Lord Epps took down a book from the shelf on the wall. It was an ordinary parchment book. It seemed to be incompatible with the sparkling environment here, but there is always a reason for everything——

"This is a collection of letters left by your great-grandfather." Epps caressed the collection of letters with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Great-grandfather?" Niya knew that her father was talking about the great arcanist Savil, who was also the original pioneer of the Savile Territory, but her impression of this great-grandfather was limited to the statue in the central square of the town.

"Let's not talk about him. Most of these letters were sent back through the Mage Tower when my grandfather was outside. Take a look at the last page."

Niya took the letter collection. If she had known about these letters, she would have come to read them. There were not many letters, so Niya simply started reading them from the beginning.

The recipient of the letter was Niya's grandfather. Most of the first letters explained the construction points of the mage tower, and the middle ones included some plans for the development of the territory.

On the last page that her father asked her to read, she only told two things, one was to erect a statue in the square, and the other was to pay attention to abnormalities around the territory.

"Plane crystal?!" Niya couldn't help but exclaimed after reading the letter, "Are there plane crystals around the territory?"

[Plane Crystal] is an indispensable core material for building a plane exploration array. Niya is very clear about the status of her mage tower. She can activate the plane exploration array only without [Plane Crystal].

Why the territories of those great arcanists can gather so many spellcasters? In addition to the great arcanists themselves, the ability to open plane exploration arrays is also a very important reason.

The projection plane is nothing, what's more important is the secondary plane. This is a real plane. If a livable plane can be found, the benefits contained in it will make even a great arcanist excited.

At this moment, Niya saw the content in the letter, saying that there might be plane crystals around the territory, how could she not be extremely excited!

Niya looked at her father expectantly, hoping he would give a positive answer!

"Whether there is or not, we descendants don't know yet. This letter was the last letter sent back by my grandfather. Later, my grandfather's teacher sent someone to inform my father, saying that my grandfather fell into an alien plane. Later, my grandfather never appeared again. Pass."

Speaking of these past events, Lord Epps was quite emotional. In fact, his grandfather, the Grand Arcanist, disappeared before he was born. It was his father who struggled to support the territory, continued to build mage towers, open up land, and eventually died of beasts. In the crowd.

He only discovered these letters after he took over the territory and checked the family secrets, because the contents described in the letters were either completed or illusory, and he never read them again after that.

well--

Epps sighed and continued:

"[Plane Crystals] are the product of plane destruction. Most of the plane crystals in the empire are obtained from elven ruins. Perhaps my grandfather chose this place to obtain plane crystals."

"Is there really a plane crystal?" Niya asked in surprise.

She knew that Savile Town was built on an elven ruins, but now there is no plane crystal in the mage tower, which means that the ancestors did not find it here.

Could it be inside the mysterious lock on Xia Duo's territory?

Niya told her father her guess, and Epps also had a guess, but by this time he had calmed down. Plane crystals are a good thing, but they must be taken with a life.

There are fifteen great arcanists in the empire, but not all great arcanists have plane exploration arrays, and plane crystals are not only used in plane exploration arrays.

Once the news leaked, Epps couldn't imagine the scene.

"I suspect that the elf mage who suddenly appeared in the Green Bead Forest is also looking for plane crystals." Lord Epps said in a deep tone.

As soon as these words came out, Niya's face turned pale, yes! She should have thought that the elf mage appeared and disappeared suddenly, maybe he was searching for the secret lock.

At this moment, two thoughts appeared in her mind at the same time - the plane crystal might very well exist, and the elves should not be allowed to know about it!
