Arcane Lord

In this way, Xia Duo settled down in Silver Light City, going to the training camp to participate in group training in the morning, and doing activities on his own in the afternoon.

In fact, Xia Duo didn't have much interest in training as a swordsinger. He just asked Tai Lun to take him into the Silver Light Tower for convenience. He also conducted every training seriously.

The elves' inheritance of swordsingers seems to have not been cut off, and the relevant training is very similar to the era of the previously projected Sukanvisa City.

In essence, this is actually a type of mage, but the sword chanter uses a sword to cast spells and is best at close combat and assassination.

Since his first visit to the library, Xia Duo has found opportunities to enter the library to search for information from time to time. Of course, it is not limited to the mithril refining technology itself. For example, he is also quite interested in the elves' papermaking technology.

Because after many experiments, he discovered that the elves' paper can carry 0-level spells. In Xia Duo's eyes, this was already an almost earth-shattering event.

In the main plane, ordinary paper in Netheril is much more expensive than parchment, and most importantly, it cannot carry spells.

This is largely useless to mages.

Moreover, in Nese, it is generally believed that natural materials can carry magic, such as metal, stone, leaves, bark, sheepskin, etc.

Ordinary paper is not a natural material, so it cannot carry magic.

However, Xia Duo always believed that as long as he could discover the secret, he would be able to produce ordinary paper that could carry magic.

He even looked forward to the day when he could directly mass-produce finished magic scrolls through printing.

In Silver Light City, he really saw the dawn of mass production of magic scrolls. The biggest difference between artificial paper and parchment is that as long as the raw materials are available, unlimited production can be achieved.

However, parchment requires living animals. Animals need to grow. No matter how fast they grow, they are not as fast or as abundant as the forests everywhere outside!

Time passed day by day, and Xia Duo became more and more familiar with Silver Light City. During this period, he also went outside the city, but unfortunately, the projection plane this time was not as broad as the last Nese early projection plane. .

It's probably less than five miles around Silver Light City.

Xia Duo understood that the time left for him was far less than the last time. Based on the experience of the first projection, he speculated that it might only take more than a year for this projection plane to dissipate.

This discovery also made him a little anxious.

…

Time soon came a year later. During this period, Sha Duo encountered a drow attack in the Silver Light Tower, but the drow assassin was easily killed by him.

And because the [Short-distance Teleportation] he used during the pursuit was regarded by Tyran as the Swordsinger's [Space Jump], he was allowed to go to the library alone.

This greatly speeded up Xia Duo's query. Since then, he would go to the library of Silver Light Tower every afternoon.

He already knew something about the elves' papermaking technology. He found it in a book of poems. The author's main purpose was to express his feelings about the cycle of transformation of all things. There was a paragraph that briefly described the process of papermaking.

As for the specific mithril refining technology, Xia Duo has never found it.

However, there are many poems about mithril, many of which describe the process of mithril from underground minerals to jewelry and weapons.

It's just that these processes are too simple. Xia Duo has almost no understanding of mithril refining. Unlike papermaking, Xia Duo can more or less get a glimpse of some secrets from it.

In addition to looking for valuable technologies, Shado also paid a little attention to the history of elves. Of course, the so-called history is actually an epic poem, hidden in anthologies of poetry.

The elves do not have detailed chronicles, only the Lisa epic, or the epic of the times, which is mainly about major events in history.

Understanding the history of elves will help him understand the elves on the main plane, and then take the initiative when contacting the elves.

Although he has not yet reached this point, it is necessary to prepare for a rainy day. Netheril is almost included in the Elf Kingdom.

Even the current territory of Netheril was actually an elven kingdom in the past.

To survive in the cracks, it is definitely not possible to understand the opponent.

…

On this day, as soon as Xia Duo walked out of the Silver Light Tower, the emptiness in the sky not far away instantly attracted his attention. After walking around the Silver Light Tower, Xia Duo confirmed again:

"time is limited!"

It seemed that this projection plane was going to dissolve soon. Looking at the approaching void, Xia Duo was a little irritated. If he continued to search, he might eventually be sucked into the void.

Of course, he speculated that even after being sucked into the void, he would appear in the star realm and would not necessarily die, but he would not make fun of his own consciousness.

Having experienced the dissolution of the projection plane once, he knew very well that towards the end, the faster the projection plane would disintegrate.

There are still less than half of the books in the library that have not been checked. Maybe they contain detailed methods for refining mithril, maybe they don't, but Xia Duo is no longer ready to continue.

Looking at the Silver Light Tower for the last time with regret, Xia Duo had the desire to return. The next moment, his consciousness was dragged up into the sky by the silver thread.

Immediately afterwards, the silver void appeared and the consciousness jump began, and soon his consciousness returned to his original body.

His hand suddenly sank, and Xia Duo subconsciously raised it, raising the [Pioneer Scepter] above his head. The elf body he had been familiar with for a year suddenly returned to a human, which made him a little uncomfortable.

After moving his hands and feet a little, a sense of familiarity emerged leisurely, but mental fatigue swept over him again.

He vaguely remembered that Niya was still waiting for him, but he suppressed his tiredness and didn't have much thought to talk. Xia Duo almost didn't think twice and immediately ordered the tower spirit to send him back to his residence.

As soon as he entered the bedroom, he lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

…

Meanwhile, Nia's study.

Aberke, Depak, Cecily, and even Thane and Derrick appeared here, but except for Cecily and Thain, father and daughter, who were talking quietly, everyone else was drinking tea quietly.

They were waiting for Xia Duo to arrive, but no one came. Finally, Aibo put down his tea cup and asked Niya, "What's the situation over there with Xia Duo?"

"His side - let me take a look." Niya quickly replied, "He has just been to the projection plane and is resting now. Forget it, I won't wait for him, I will talk to him alone later. "

As soon as they heard that they were about to talk about business, Cecily and Thain stopped talking, and everyone else put down their teacups and looked at Niya.

"I came back this time mainly because of two things. One is about Rodney Territory. Teacher leads the development movement, so she will not stop Lord Rodney from coveting the Green Bead Forest. It can even be said that Teacher supports this. kind of behavior.”

"What?!"
