Arcane Lord

He couldn't help but guess in his heart, but on the surface, Xia Duo remained calm and said as if it was a routine matter:

"Mr. Wilder, it's nice to meet a high-level mage. What do you want to do during this visit?"

Simple chatting is not welcomed by mages, unless it is a close relationship, but for Shado, Wilder obviously cannot reach this level.

"I am also very happy to think that for such a young mid-level mage, Master Shado, your talent makes me feel envious. The goddess of magic prefers you so much!"

Wilder looks decent and speaks nicely, but the cold aura "smell" from him always reminds Xia Duo that this person is not simple.

Chateau didn't speak, just looked at Wilder quietly, and Wilder also saw that Chateau was not the kind of young man who would forget about everything after a few words of praise.

So he finally expressed his intention, "My lord received news from the Austrian and French Federation that Aquilaine was arrested in the Great Xia Territory, so he specially asked me to come and redeem him. All losses suffered by the Great Xia Territory will be paid by us. "

Redeeming people?

Xia Duo frowned. If someone else had come, he might have agreed, but the Wilder in front of him was from the August Territory. Just now De Parker specifically reminded him that the August Territory and the Hawke Territory There is a feud between them.

The matter was already complicated enough, and the August leader wanted to get involved, which gave Xia Duo a headache. He wanted to refuse directly, but he could sense the cold aura from the other party and the August leader behind him. It made him a little worried again.

"Master Wilde, can you tell me why you want to redeem Aquiline? You must know that he is not one of yours." Sha Duo expressed his refusal in a subtle way.

But Wilder seemed to be completely unconcerned and said unabashedly: "Of course I'll kill him!"

After hearing this, Xia Duo was even more unlikely to agree. He really didn't want to get involved in the relationship between the two families. "Master Wilder, I'm sorry. For this reason alone, I can't agree."

Wilder suddenly smiled and changed the topic, "I wonder what Lord Shado thinks of the current situation in Netheril?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know much about this." Xia Duo didn't lie, and he knew the truth behind the matter. "If there is nothing else, I still have a very important experiment to deal with. I will I asked Depak to entertain you, and the Tower of Time welcomes you.”

After saying that, Xia Duo was ready to get up and leave.

"Lord Xia Duo, please wait a moment."

Wilder stopped Shado, "I'm sorry that what I said before caused you to misunderstand, but I want to say that August is your best friend when facing the Hawk Territory."

"No!" Shado stopped, "We are not enemies with the Hawk Territory. It just happened a small accident. Aquilaine cannot represent the Hawk Territory, and you cannot represent August."

Although Archmage Greta revealed that the Hawk Territory is likely to become an enemy in the future, it is not yet the enemy, and the distinction between friend and foe does not lie in rhetoric, but always in reality.

Wilder's lips moved, but in the end he didn't persuade anything. He just said before leaving, "If Lord Shado knows about the great cause we are undertaking, he will definitely agree with us!"

This sentence was reported by De Park after he sent him out. Chateau did not comment on it. Regardless of whether August had good intentions or bad intentions, he did not seem to be involved in it for the time being.

This has nothing to do with his fundamental plan of "hugging the outside and building up the strength inside". The most important thing now is to wait for Aiboike's return and the news from the Hawke leader to settle this matter as soon as possible.

As for the follow-up, of course there is a "thigh" treatment, he just needs to hug it tightly and hide behind it, and it will be fine.

…

Just the day after Wild August left, Aiboike came back. Shado, who was reminded by Talling, almost didn't want to wait for a moment and immediately asked Taling to teleport him to Aiboke.

As soon as they met, Xia Duo couldn't wait to ask: "How is the situation? Have you heard any new news?"

Aibo's face looked a little tired. He had been busy inquiring about information these days and had never had a good rest.

However, just today he got some new information, which he felt was very important, so he rushed back immediately, "There is not much information that can be found, it is similar to what we learned before, it is all superficial information. but--"

"But what?"

"New news suddenly appeared in Severton today. Many mages from Hawke were attacked and killed. Four of them died on the spot. This was confirmed by the Austrian Law Federation. There is also news that this is their feud with the Austrian Law. Made by Gusterling, but the authenticity has yet to be verified.”

August? Xia Duo had a sudden thought. Although there was no definite news yet, many people including him believed that it was August Ling who did it!

"Did Hawkland respond?" Sha Duo asked.

"Yes, this matter has already reached the Austrian and French Federation, and it may not take long for it to spread completely." Speaking of this, Aibo's face showed a trace of worry.

He also believed that August Leader was responsible for this matter, but it also had a lot to do with the Tower of Time. Aquilaine was arrested by the Tower of Time.

No one knows whether Hawke will think that the Tower of Time is also involved!

Aiboike could think of it, and Shado also thought of it. He was originally going to exchange Aquiline for some arcane crystals or repair materials, but now that something like this happened suddenly, Aquiline must not be let go.

Because now, he is no longer sure whether Hawke will turn the Tower of Time into an enemy.

Before, Hawkland didn't lose anything, but he was a little embarrassed in terms of face, but because of the injustice and the Tower of Time's backing, he had no choice but to admit it.

But now, four mages died in the Hawk Territory all at once. The debt is likely to fall on the August Territory, but the Tower of Time will probably share some of it as well.

Thinking of this, Shado quickly asked Ai Burke, "Have you informed the Hawke leader of Aquilaine's arrest?"

"Already notified."

At this time, Aiboke was also a little annoyed, because when he gave the notice, he clearly hinted that he would be released upon payment of money, but in this situation, how could an enemy who was almost confirmed be released so easily!

"well--"

Chateau sighed. He even suspected that the August Territory was specifically trying to mess with him. Wilder failed to "redeeme" Aquiline, and an attack and murder case immediately occurred over there.

Xia Duo doesn't believe that these two things are not related at all. This detail involves the Tower of Time, and -

"Ai Burke, when you informed the Hawke Territory, did the news leak out? The August Territory just sent someone the day before yesterday, saying that they wanted to buy Aquilaine, but I didn't agree."

"ah!"

Aiboke reacted quickly and immediately connected this incident with the attack and murder. The annoyance and worry on his face became even heavier.

"Forget it, I didn't think well." Xia Duo comforted him, and he was also a little annoyed.

Originally, he arranged for Eberk to spread the news through the Austrian and French Federation, with the intention of exposing the Aquilaine incident and confirming that the other party had violated the rules first.

But plans can never keep up with changes!

"well--"

Sha Duo sighed again, but things had to be solved. He asked Aibo to rest first, and then stood alone and thought carefully.
