Arcane Lord

Excavation of ruins is not something that can be completed overnight. When it comes to exploration and actual excavation, Shado did not overly urge Jabas to complete the task immediately.

At the same time, he is also preparing to continue research on petrification spells. If he can find a spell that can move quickly underground, or a spell that can quickly search for underground targets, it will be a huge boost to the entire excavation work.

At present, Xia Duo's detection spell cannot be used underground. To be more precise, it cannot be directly detected if it is more than two palms away from the ground.

Perhaps Zall's black ball detector can, but that requires the establishment of a standard comparison database by collecting a large amount of infrasound return data in order to carry out actual and useful detection activities.

In this regard, someone is already working on the Tower of Time. Shado is not prepared to repeat the work, and collecting information to build a database or even doing data analysis will not require him as an arcanist for the time being.

In theory, an apprentice can do it, and he should focus on more important things.

At present, the transformation of the Tower of Time has just advanced to the apprenticeship stage, and Sha Duo cannot fully control the research direction of all mid-level mages. For example, the research on the black ball detector was taken over by Leonard on his own initiative.

If the Tower of Time could be integrated into a cohesive whole, then many things would not need to be done personally, and it would not be impossible to even break down tasks and study them together.

It's just that in this process, not only mutual trust is needed, but also common interests, and even certain common ideals.

Xia Duo's idea is actually to train apprentices and gradually replace the existing mid-level mages in the Tower of Time. Of course, if these existing mid-level mages can actively embrace the transformation, then he will definitely be happier!

…

Putting the statue away again, Xia Duo cleaned up the traces of the laboratory a little, and was about to return to Linshui Village when Niya suddenly sent a message:

"Come on! You guessed it right, Depak has indeed become a high-level mage!"

"ah?!"

When he heard the news, although he had already guessed it, Sha Duo couldn't help but worry. The weight of a high-level mage was extraordinary. At present, the Tower of Time only consisted of himself, Niya and Aibo. He is a high-level mage.

Arcanist, of course.

Now there is suddenly a Depak. Even though he supported Niya before and supported the transformation of the Tower of Time, who knows if there will be any changes after he becomes a high-level mage!

Of course, if Depak continues to support Niya and support the transformation, there will be too many benefits. Not only can it inspire other mid-level mages to also support the transformation, it can at least change the income ratio of the current dissidents in the Tower of Time.

If the people who embrace the transformation are enough to keep the Tower of Time functioning normally, then Shado can ignore other people who resist the transformation and just force the transformation.

…

Hiding a trace of worry in his heart, Sha Duo quickly arrived at the ground floor hall of the Tower of Time. As soon as he stepped out of the elevator and entered the hall, he heard a low but intense discussion.

The appearance of Xia Duo caused a sudden silence in the hall, and then Niya's greeting came, "Xia Duo, come here!"

Almost in the middle of the hall, Sha Duo walked over and found that De Parker was chatting with Aibo and Niya with a bright face. The four apprentices surrounding him also had glowing faces, as if they were the ones being promoted at this moment. That's right.

"Master Depak, congratulations on finally getting what you wanted!"

"Haha! Master Xia Duo, you are here!" De Parker's eyes lit up when he saw Xia Duo. He quickly walked out of the crowd and gave a solemn salute to Xia Duo, "Thanks to Master Xia Duo's guidance, I was able to achieve a high level so quickly! "

"You're welcome. If you don't have any demands in this regard, then even if others give you advice, it won't be of any use!"

In front of everyone, Xia Duo was naturally very humble, but no one would look down on him because of this. Instead, after De Park's reminder, everyone stared at Xia Duo with fiery eyes.

This made Xia Duo feel a little uncomfortable. At the same time, he also understood that Depak should still support the transformation, otherwise, he would probably avoid him.

Walking to the center, Niya naturally leaned towards Sha Duo, and their arms were almost touching each other. This was a close distance that was hard to imagine between mages.

With the arrival of Xia Duo, the distribution of the crowd in the hall also changed slightly. Members of the academy began to gather towards Xia Duo. Some of the mid-level mages who had already moved towards Xia Duo changed their expressions, and then they also brought their apprentices with them. Come closer.

The remaining people are interesting. Except for Sandur and his two apprentices, who are standing alone, the others have quickly gathered together.

However, Sandur's two apprentices struggled a bit, gritted their teeth and moved away from Sandur, standing together with the members of the Society.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo couldn't help but be stunned. He didn't remember what he told the people who entered the academy that he was going to do something wrong at this time. This was obviously beyond his expectation.

The contradictions and oppositions that could have been concealed during the transformation of the Tower of Time were suddenly made clear. This was not in line with Sha Duo's plan.

Although this move seems to isolate Sandur, others may have deeper prejudices.

But now that the matter had come to this, and with De Park's attitude, Sha Duo stood up immediately and announced to everyone:

"Everyone, the transformation of the Tower of Time has achieved considerable results. Two official mages have been produced in a short period of time. This is an achievement that the Tower of Time could only achieve in one or two years in the past. Moreover, under the new system, there will be a steady stream of official mages. Absolutely!

"In order to build a good and stable mage training and development system, we need to further deepen the transformation and upgrade it to the formal mage level. Now I propose to rename the Apprentice Management Office to the Academic Affairs Office, and integrate all low-level mages into the unity of the Academic Affairs Office. Management, who is in favor!

After saying that, Xia Duo began to observe everyone's reactions. Most of the low-level mages looked happy, because they knew what the existing apprentices were doing every day, and they were not happy enough to be actively trained by the Tower of Time!

As for the mid-level mages, one by one, almost all of them frowned and hesitated to speak. The low-level mages were both their magic batteries and their ordinary labor. If they were all taken away at once, how could they not have any opinions at all? !

However, Xia Duo is determined to change all this. He does not object to mid-level mages using synergistic resonance to cast spells to occupy the remaining energy of low-level mages. After all, this can be regarded as a way of selling individual labor.

But at least some talented low-level mages should be freed from this fate of human batteries.

Even on earth, there are still people who sell their individual labor. The key lies in choice. We need to give low-level mages more choices.

This kind of giving may seem unnecessary now, but it is indeed an important factor in the longevity of civilization.
