Arcane Lord

Following the young deacon, Xia Duo walked through the main hall and came to the back. The last time he came here, he specifically observed the terrain here. Behind this is a courtyard, with light from top to bottom, and corridors all around leading to various halls.

The last time he came here, he took the corridor on the right, but this time he walked on the left. After twists and turns, Shado soon arrived outside Bishop Ambril's study.

The young deacon knocked on the door, said Lord Shada was here, and then left on his own. Sha Duo opened the door and saw Ai Burke who had just separated from him.

At this time, he and Bishop Ambril were saying something, but the two of them didn't seem to have reached an agreement.

Seeing Sha Duo coming in, Bishop Ambril temporarily gave up talking to Ai Burke, but stood up to welcome Sha Duo, and Ai Burke also paid tribute.

Afterwards, Shado sat down, and before he could speak, Bishop Ambril took the lead in asking him the reason for his visit, "Lord Shado, do you also want me to open the shadow portal again?"

Xia Duo was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized that this should be the purpose of Aiboike's visit. Last time the three of them traveled through the shadow plane to attack Aquilaine, there were no dangers along the way, and they succeeded successfully in the end.

And just now I learned from Niya that the Tower of Time also has a plane exploration array, and also learned some characteristics of plane scholars. Here, Aiboike will open the shadow portal again.

Obviously, Niya also gave Aiboike information about astral mages and plane scholars, and now he may be seeking the opportunity to become a plane scholar.

This was also in Xia Duo's interests, so at first he did not mention that he wanted to invite the destiny recorder to join the territory, but said with great certainty:

"I do have such a plan. This matter is very important. I hope the bishop will give it more consideration."

If you want to become a plane scholar, you need to travel through multiple planes. Currently, the most feasible method that Xia Duo knows is the shadow plane portal. Although he doubts whether traveling through the same plane repeatedly is effective, what if he doesn't try it? I know it won’t work!

There was no need for him to waste time testing it himself, it was just a casual mention, but if it was proven to be effective, he would also benefit.

Then Ai Burke continued to persuade. If it was just Ai Bike's request, Ambril would not agree, but once Sha Duo was added, it would be difficult for him to refuse.

After all, Xia Duo is now his lord in name only, although he is only an agent.

But after some hesitation, Ambril finally did not agree on the spot, "Lord Shado, I need to think about this matter again."

Although he did not agree directly, his tone was already relaxed. Aibo was very happy and immediately said: "Ambril, thank you. I hope you can think about it carefully. This matter is really important."

"I understand." Ambril sighed silently in his heart. To open the shadow portal, he needed to use the temple's holy power reserves. Last time, he agreed due to special circumstances.

But now, it's clear that Aibo wants more than just one or two times, and this is the real reason for Ambril's hesitation.

Holy power, in a sense, is actually the embodiment of divine grace, a certificate of recognition given by the Lord of Glory to His followers. The reserved holy power of the temple is something they have saved little by little. They cannot use it easily unless necessary.

After receiving the good news, Aibo guessed that Shado might have other things to do with Ambril, so he quickly said goodbye and left. However, before leaving, he did not forget to remind him, "Please pay more attention to the other thing, Bishop."

"I'll keep an eye out."

After Eberk left, Bishop Ambril looked at Shado helplessly, "He actually wants me to select people who are proficient in magic among my lord's servants. If there really is such a person, he would not have joined the Tower of Time long ago. Yet?"

Xia Duo was silent. He felt that Aibo seemed a little impatient. It seemed that his mentality was unstable since he learned about the plane exploration circle. However, as a latecomer in the field of magic, he could not understand why.

However, he had already made up his mind to persuade him before returning to his territory.

"Bishop Ambril, I came here this time to actually ask about the Lord of Death's destiny recorder." Then, Shado said his plan, "I want to invite a destiny recorder to become the cemetery in the territory. guard."

There is nothing to avoid about this matter. From Leiden, Shado knew that the priests of the Lord of Death often live in the temple of the Lord of Glory. Glory and death seem to be very inconsistent, but this is indeed the case.

Death is an almost absolute order, and one of the responsibilities of the Lord of Death is to maintain the order of death. There is no doctrinal conflict between the two parties, but death is a bit taboo after all.

Therefore, the Lord of Death rarely has a formal temple. Most of them choose a tomb or cemetery at will to serve as a temple. As for the gorgeous decorations, God does not care.

Through Leiden, Shado learned a lot about the Lord of Death, and also knew that the mages of Netheril were afraid of him, and even now many places do not recognize him as a true god.

But Xia Duo doesn't care about this. He only cares about how to get the fate recorder to join and whether the undead goblin plan can be realized!

After listening to Shado's words, Ambril shook his head, "Lord Shado, I can't make the decision on this matter. You should ask Tusi. He is the high priest of the Lord of Death. He is the person you are looking for." 's apprentice."

"Please introduce me to the bishop!"

Due to the different teachings of the Lord of Radiance and the Lord of Death, Shado can directly order Ambril, but may not necessarily be able to instigate the Tus priest.

However, since the other party can stay in Savile Territory for a long time, he must be able to instigate it. What's more, this matter itself does not violate the other party's teachings. Inviting a destiny recorder just shows Shado's respect for death.

…

Soon, under the leadership of Bishop Ambril, Shado arrived at a relatively remote building behind the temple. The environment here was very dim, as if no light from the outside could enter the place.

Only a few oil lamps were on, and the wicks were shaking, adding a bit of eerie color to the dim environment.

Chateau followed Bishop Ambril and walked past the rows of bookshelves. He tried to read the names of the books on the bookshelves, but in addition to the dim environment, there was another force that was preventing him from observing.

Sha Duo was a little curious about the contents of these books, but he was about to face a high-level priest, so he could only put away his thoughts. However, when he actually saw the Tus priest, he was almost shocked. .

This was a skinny old man wearing a gray robe, with no additional decorations on his body. However, this old man seemed too skinny, so that when Xia Duo saw him for the first time, there was only one word that came to his mind -

skinny!

Real skin and bones, as if all flesh and blood have disappeared, leaving only dry, wrinkled skin sticking to the surface of the bones. Even key parts like the eyes seem to have dried up.

Muddy and lifeless, like two lime balls stained with mud.
