Arcane Lord

Even if Xia Duo is an ordinary person, he may see these situations happen in his lifetime. This is also the war crisis he has always been worried about, the kind of devastating scenes he has experienced in [Projection Plane Arcane Empire] , still pops up in his mind from time to time.

Although the main reason for the great destruction of the entire territory was probably that the elves controlled the border enchantment of the Arcane Empire, it is undeniable that the elves do have a very powerful power.

At least Cormanthor in the projection plane, under the pressure of more than 40 great arcane masters of the Arcane Empire, has gradually become weak, but he can still maintain his immortality, and even finally captured the border barrier of the Arcane Empire. loopholes and made a comeback in one fell swoop.

It is speculated from this that Cormanso in the main plane is likely to have such strength.

If a developing country wants to rise, it will inevitably touch the interests of existing powers. Sometimes just its own existence may arouse hostility or even murderous intentions from the other party.

How difficult it is to rise peacefully.

…

Xia Duo let out a long sigh, reached out and took off the fireball ring floating on the alchemy table. He kept playing with the small ring and looked at it carefully.

Judging from the appearance alone, the main body of this ring is silver. After all, the packaging material is silver, and because a little bit of fine gold is added to support the strength of the ring, facing the light source, you can faintly see a trace of light appearing on the ring. Blu-ray.

As for the face of the ring, it is a seemingly ordinary ruby. This main energy core can indeed be encapsulated with packaging materials, but because the ruby ​​is too large, it would not be very beautiful, so Xia Duo chose to leave it exposed. A ring surface is formed.

Other energy cores are completely hidden within the main body of the ring, including the mithril components.

In terms of appearance, Xia Duo did not design too much. On the one hand, he really did not want to add so many bells and whistles, and on the other hand, it was also because of his lack of plastic arts.

So this is a simple, unpretentious gemstone ring.

In the magic vision, this ring is continuously emitting a faint blue light, and any spellcaster can easily detect it within a certain range.

Of course, it is possible to hide the magic aura, but few people do it, because it will increase the complexity of the magic item itself and make it more difficult to make. On the contrary, it will not have much effect. It just hides the magic aura. .

Of all the magic items that Sha Duo currently owns, none of them hides the magic aura, and this fireball ring is just for collection, so there is no need to hide the magic aura.

After playing with it for a while, Xia Duo put away the ring and did not try to use it. He felt that he would never use this thing in his life. Maybe he could use it as a prize in some arcane competition in the future.

With this in mind, Sha Duo closed the alchemy circle, then left the workshop and followed the circular corridor on the public floor to another room.

This is a small reception room. Just when he was checking the fireball ring, he received a message from Cecily that the appointed time had arrived.

Only then did Chateau realize that it was already afternoon, and Cecily had been waiting for a while. When he entered the reception room, Cecily was holding a thick volume and flipping through it.

cough--

Chateau coughed slightly, waking up Cecily. Cecily quickly closed the volume and put it aside. She stood up and saluted. Chateau waved his hand and motioned for her to sit down and talk, and then said:

"The main reason for inviting you here this time is for tomorrow's Tower of Time collective meeting. What do you think of the transformation of the Tower of Time? Has Niya ever discussed this topic with you?"

He knew that Cecily had a good relationship with Nia and that she was Nia's housekeeper. There was no need to beat around the bush about many things, so he asked directly.

Hearing this question, Cecily's face straightened, "Lord Shada, Niya just talked to me not long ago, but I think this plan is a bit too drastic, and the consumption of materials is also very huge. The Tower of Time just To get rid of the raw material crisis, I don’t think it is the best time to transform now. In addition, there is also resistance from tradition. I think it is more appropriate to postpone the implementation.”

It was the first time he heard the objections in person. Xia Duo felt quite uncomfortable. Even Cecily opposed him, let alone others. Probably only the members of the society and other mages who could benefit from it. Will support him.

Shado believes that if he insists on having his own way, although Cecily may obey the order, he will lose the hearts of the people, and other mages may not be able to run away.

After all, the most significant aspect of transformation is the replacement of the contract. If Xia Duo unilaterally wants to change the contract, other people can leave if they don't agree.

This is the tradition of the Mage Tower.

In Xia Duo's hometown, there is also a saying that "if you have a problem, you will remonstrate, and if you don't listen to it over and over again, you will go away." It means that it is easy to get together and easy to disperse.

Of course, on the other hand, once the contract is reached, if one party cannot fulfill the agreement, the other party can launch a counterattack, but due to the unequal strength of the mage tower and the individual.

Usually when an individual mage breaches the contract, the Mage Tower will pursue him; if the Mage Tower actually breaks the contract, the only thing the individual mage can do is leave.

At present, the Tower of Time cannot do without these existing mages, but Sha Duo has plans to gradually cultivate reserve forces, but this will take time, and time is what Sha Duo lacks most.

Seeing the firm look in Cecily's eyes, Shado knew that it would be difficult for him to convince her. If he forced it to be brought to tomorrow's group meeting, it might be the beginning of the split and decline of the Tower of Time.

After thinking about it, people still have to succumb to reality. Even a great arcanist cannot do whatever he wants, let alone a new arcanist like him!

However, this does not mean that Xia Duo gave up his *** plan. The plan still has to be implemented, but it must be a little more tactful and consume less resources. Moreover, the original plan targeted formal mages, especially mid-level mages. That part can be postponed.

Then, Xia Duo and Cecily discussed the specific implementation plan. With such a real-time feedback from the Tower of Time material manager, Xia Duo quickly adjusted a new plan.

At least in Cecily's view, it was barely acceptable.

Looking at the somewhat unrecognizable transformation plan, Xia Duo sighed in his heart, but he knew that if he didn't do this, he might not even have the chance to transform.

Saving the country through curves is not unacceptable.

He believes that as long as you take the first step, the power of progress will continue to flow, and any obstacles will eventually collapse like a castle built with sand.

…

After discussing the plan, Xia Duo had an idea of ​​what to expect, and was fully confident about the upcoming interview. He asked Ta Ling about the current time. It was still some time before the appointment time with the next person, so he asked again by the way. The situation in Sandur:

"Cecily, what kind of person do you think Sandur is?"
