Arcane Lord

Thinking of language, Xia Duo thought of another question, about the education of the territorial residents, so he said: "Gather the minors in the territory, including those Langas children, and arrange for people to teach them how to read. The territory will not be able to read for the time being. We lack their labor force.”

Leiden didn't really agree with this decision, but it was always difficult for him to refuse the lord's words, so he could only agree and began to think about the profound meaning of it.

The two of them said they were discussing together, but it was more of Sha Duo unilaterally assigning tasks, but sometimes he would have blind spots in his thinking. At this time, Leiden would add a few words.

Unconsciously, the night was already very deep, and Xia Duo was already a little tired. "Do you have anything else to say? If not, just go back and rest."

"There is one more thing that I must tell you, sir." Leiden's expression suddenly became serious.

Xia Duo suddenly became interested and said, "What's the matter?"

"Besides the Langas, there is also a very special person among the people who came with the ship this time."

"Special people?" Sha Duo thought about it for a moment. In addition to the Langas people on the ship, weren't they the people from the Slavin Chamber of Commerce? But he didn't find anyone special.

"Are they the translators from the Slavin Chamber of Commerce?" Sha Duo asked.

"No, sir." Leighton shook his head, "That man is among the Langas. Although it is difficult to tell from his appearance, I am sure that he once possessed the Holy Power!"

"who is it?"

At this moment, Xia Duo was no longer just curious. He once had holy power, which meant that he no longer had it. So what was the identity of this person? What is the purpose of coming to Daxia Territory?

"The skin on that man's right hand looks like dry old tree bark. You should have an impression."

After Leiden said this, Xia Duo remembered that he had been present when he had just arranged the accommodation for those Langas people. That right hand that looked like withered old tree bark was really impressive.

Moreover, when I think about it now, that person seems to be a little less wild than the normal Langas people. I don't know if it is a psychological effect.

He quickly asked Leiden: "You said he once possessed holy power. Can you tell what kind of holy power it is?"

Layton looked ashamed, "Sir, I can't tell. I can only see that there are residual traces of holy power radiation on his body."

Traces of holy power radiation?

Shado is no stranger to this. In the past, Savile led the arcane competition. At that time, a magic goddess priest who came from afar performed a secret flame baptism ceremony for Ai Burke. As a result, Ai Burke regained his youth. This is actually A trace of holy power radiation.

However, afterwards, Aibok used magic to hide his youthful appearance. In fact, he should look younger than himself.

Generally speaking, the traces of holy power radiation are permanent, which is equivalent to saying that the effects of the holy power transformation are permanent. There is only one situation that may occur for that person who has residual traces of holy power radiation.

That is, that person was originally a priest, but lost his holy power for some reason, and all the effects based on this holy power no longer existed.

If Leiden suddenly lost his holy power now, there would be some traces of holy power radiation remaining on his body.

However, it is indeed a difficult problem to identify the traces of holy power radiation. At least Xia Duo was not able to find the traces of holy power radiation on that person, let alone distinguish what kind of holy power it was caused by.

Even Layton, a professional, couldn't recognize it.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo felt that it would be better for both parties to discuss this matter directly and honestly. If it was really a troublesome matter, then he could prepare in advance, so he said:

"Tomorrow, you first ask the people from the Slavin Chamber of Commerce to see if that person was in the Kawan tribe from the beginning. Then you can talk to that person and ask him about his specific identity. If there is no trouble behind him, If so, you can stay in Daxia Territory. If there is any trouble, let him leave directly tomorrow before the ship leaves. "

Leiden can use [Realm of Honesty], and it is difficult for an ordinary person who has lost his holy power to lie in front of him. As long as he asks clearly about the situation, Sha Duo will naturally not mind one more person in the territory.

"That's it for today. Go back and get some rest early."

"Yes, sir."

…

The next day, the sky became increasingly gloomy, and the low clouds seemed to be about to hit the top of the head, which made people feel a little depressed.

Xia Duo looked at the sky and ate steamed buns, mentally calculating when it would snow. Leiden had just come over and said he was going to the South District to inquire about the situation.

The people from the Slavin Chamber of Commerce have already asked. The man claimed to be "Atwood". He was fished out of the river by the people from the Slavin Chamber of Commerce. He was seriously injured at the time and was stuffed into the Kabu tribe to save him. , just to add one more population and earn more gold coins.

Now Leiden is going to ask Atwood directly, and he should know his identity later.

Xia Duo was still very curious, how could a normal priest with status and status lose his holy power? Was it because he offended his god, or for some other reason?

…

After breakfast, Xia Duo first performed some simple physical training to keep his body and mind active, and then he took out his books and notes and wandered in the magic field.

The last time he was in the Yerlan Silver Light City in the projection plane was more than a year ago. Although he did not devote most of his time to magic research, even a small amount of it was enough to greatly improve his upgrade progress.

The threshold for a high-level mage is a 5-level spell, and Xia Duo is already very close. He has previously adjusted this advancement plan, giving priority to upgrading, and then slowly polishing it to meet the advancement requirements.

This is due to the desire for long-distance teleportation, and also because this adjustment does not actually have much impact. It just pushes the advancement time back slightly.

However, there is no absolute gap in strength between high-level mage and arcanist. Therefore, it is more advantageous to delay the advancement a little but speed up the process of becoming a high-level mage.

The way Xia Duo chose to advance was still to choose a 4-level spell and use the elements before the fifth-level magic network to construct a complete 5-level spell to gain access to the fifth-level magic network.

If possible, of course he hopes to be able to access a deeper level of magic network at once, but it is easiest to advance to the level of Arcanist at the 5th level.

If it is lower, the captured essence is not enough to form arcane fire. If it is exceeded, it will be difficult to grasp the essence of the magic network under the influence of more layers of magic network, and the difficulty of advancement will be greatly increased.

This time, the spell he chose was [Mage Armor].

This creation spell, which was originally only at the 1st level, has been upgraded to the 4th level by Sha Duo not long ago. The in-depth involvement of the magic network level also gives this spell a stronger essence and higher scalability.

From level 2 to level 3, Xia Duo mainly focused on improving the protection ability, but by level 4, the improvement of passive protection ability is enough. It can even be said that the level 3 [Mage Armor] is enough.

Therefore, at the 4-level level, Xia Duo focused more on improving the duration, so there was the current 4-level [Long-lasting Armor].

As the name suggests, the duration is super strong, and one cast can last for more than twelve hours.

Of course, since higher-level spells have higher scalability, this spell actually did not reach the level that Xia Duo was satisfied with.

It's just that in order to become a high-level mage as soon as possible, he did not perfect it as much as possible. Instead, he continued to reverse the elements of the fifth-level magic network on this basis, and constructed an equivalent 5-ring spell with elements below the fifth-level magic network.

And thus came into contact with the fifth layer of magic network.
