Arcane Lord

"Master Plitatis, nice to meet you!"

Sha Duo did not expect that this mysterious dragon would become the teacher of Lord Drac, which made his heart sink. It was obviously impossible for him to become the teacher of the local lord in the near future.

I'm afraid it's been here for a while. If you think about it further, has this guy already transmitted the existence of the main plane back to the Holy Golden Dragon Empire?

At this moment, Xia Duo extremely hoped that this mysterious dragon was a local dragon, not an alien dragon. The local dragon could at least win over it by resolving historical issues. If it were an alien dragon, it would probably be difficult.

"Congressman Xia Duo, nice to meet you."

Plitatis also said hello calmly, then looked at the noisy streets around him and made a suggestion, "This is not the place to talk. Why don't we go to the Government Affairs Hall to talk again?"

He didn't mention going to the Mage Tower, which was unrealistic, so he chose a nearby place like the Government Affairs Office that could provide a meeting place.

Of course Shado had no objection to this, and he didn't want to talk about confidential things on the street. He winked at Horn and then agreed.

Afterwards, the two of them, led by Lord Drake Parker, came to the Government Affairs Hall just one street away. Once inside, Plitatis gave his student a suggestive look, and then said:

"I'm here to receive the two congressmen. Parker, didn't you say that there is still an important experiment that has not yet been completed? Go and clean up the laboratory first, and then come to meet the two congressmen."

After saying that, he looked at Xia Duo again and asked tentatively: "Both congressmen, you wouldn't mind Parker coming here later, right?"

Although Sha Duo was a little surprised that this dragon cared so much about his students, he had no intention of embarrassing Parker, and without Parker being present, there was no need to avoid certain topics.

"Since Lord Drac has important matters that need to be dealt with first, let's deal with them first. Master Pritatis will be here to entertain him."

With Xia Duo speaking, Parker naturally would not insist on staying. After leaving in a hurry, the remaining three people entered the reception room.

Unlike when they were outside, when they both sat down in the reception room, no one spoke for a while. Horn had made an agreement in advance to focus on Xia Duo during this trip. If Xia Duo didn't speak, he would not take the initiative to say anything.

Xia Duo was hesitant about how to speak. He couldn't just ask the other person if he was from the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, or if he had mastered the ultimate technology in the bloodline field, right?

As for Plitatis, he knew that Shado and Horn were coming to find him. Whether it was out of luck or confrontation, he could not take the initiative.

I don't know how long it took, but it was Shado who finally broke the silence. "I know a little about the high-level mages of Netheril, but I have never heard of the existence of Magister Plitatis. I didn't know that you are from the south." , or Imasca?”

Currently, the only human countries in the main plane that can cultivate high-level mages are Netheril in the north, Imaskar in the east, and Calimshan in the south.

Xia Duo did not reveal the other party's identity as a dragon from the beginning, but instead asked and tested him as a human being.

To this, Plitatis’s answer was——

"It is true that I am not a Netherese, but I am not from those two places. I am just a homeless wandering mage. If Netheril doesn't mind my past, I am willing to become a Netherese."

"In my hometown, there is an old proverb called "Heroes do not ask where they come from." I was not from Nese at first, I just came here because of an accident, but now I have settled here and become a real Nese people. "

Shado used his own existence as an example to remind the other party that his origin would not be an obstacle to integrating into Netheril, but at the same time he also pointed out, "Easterners have existed in the main plane since ancient times and have proven themselves. Your origin makes We can’t feel at ease!”

After these words, the living room fell into silence again. Shado hoped that Plitatis would take the initiative to reveal his origins, but Plitatis did not dare because he did not know how much Netheril knew about him. initiative.

He knew his origins, but because of his knowledge, he was more cautious.

…

Silence should not be the theme of this meeting. Horn sees it in his eyes but feels anxious in his heart. In fact, he doesn't care about the other person's background at all. As long as the technology is genuine and he is willing to share it, that is enough. Everything else is superfluous. .

He really didn't understand why Xia Duo had to worry about the origin of the other party. Even if he asked clearly, what would happen? Could it still change? This is obviously impossible, it's better to be confused.

After meeting, the other party's attitude was quite good. Isn't the most important thing to do now not to invite the other party to join the Seven Towers or the Seventon Council?

"Lord Shado—" Horn couldn't help but urge through the spiritual link.

"Don't worry, aren't you curious about where the opponent's bloodline technology comes from? Is this the only technology in your eyes in the Seven Towers?"

Xia Duo couldn't directly reveal the existence of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, so he could only appease Horn's anxiety by saying that the other party might have more secrets. However, in this way, Horn would inevitably urge him to capture the other party directly.

Without waiting for Horn to urge him again, Shado spoke again, "Since Master Plitatis intends to stay in Netheril, isn't it natural to cut off from the past? If he doesn't even want to reveal his origins, then We really have to doubt your intentions in coming to Netheril!"

"Even if I tell you about my origin, you may not be able to understand it. Why keep pursuing it like this! I've already told you that I am now a homeless mage."

Being questioned all the time, Plitatis couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but thinking about the spatial restrictions that had not yet dissipated around him, he forced himself to calm down. If he had known that he would encounter this situation, he should not have chosen Netheril to settle down.

But now it was too late to regret it. He hesitated and then added, "What I said is true. I have no ill intentions towards Netheril."

"He didn't lie," Horn said in the psychic link.

But Xia Duo was noncommittal. There were indeed many spells in this world that could detect lies. He had just judged that the other party was not lying, but there were also spells in this world that could avoid lie detection.

There is no absolute spear or shield. Even knowing that the opponent may be from the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, Xia Duo directly assumes that the opponent has the ability to avoid lie detection spells.

Therefore, you can listen to what the other party said, or you can take it at face value, but if you really believe it completely, it would be too naive. It would be too naive to place the safety of an entire plane on the sincerity of others, and it is also sincerity in words. It is simply ridiculous.

Even since the other party has been unwilling to disclose the origin, it can actually be considered that the other party has malicious intentions.

It's just that Xia Duo wants to try again to avoid misjudgment. Whether it is a misjudgment of the other party's good intentions or malice, or a misjudgment of the other party's origin, this may cause hidden dangers in the future.
