Arcane Lord

When Sha Duo walked up to Genit with the key to the mystery, Genit's first reaction was not anger or unwillingness, but confusion——

Is there some secret hidden in the books in the library that he doesn't know about, and this drow is here for this secret?

Seeing that the other party seemed to be distracted, Sha Duo shook the miniature scepter in his hand to attract Gurnet's attention again, "Tell me how to operate it!"

"snort!"

Realizing that he might have mastered a secret that even the drow could give up killing and search desperately for, Gurnet finally found a point of support in his heart.

Support him from begging for mercy so quickly.

"Tell me how to do it! Think about it before answering. I won't ask you a second time!"

The indifferent tone, coupled with the drow's dark skin and scarlet eyes, were full of pressure. After all, Gurnet did not have the consciousness to risk his life and began to avoid Sha Duo's eyes.

But even so, he still held on, not wanting to let go of his last bit of dignity.

Seeing this, Xia Duo increased his pressure again, "Master Genit, I heard that your wife lives in the west of the city?"

"Humph, since you know that she lives in the west of the city, you should know that we have no relationship for a long time. Don't even think about using her to threaten me."

That being said, Gurnet's willingness to explain this matter itself shows that he doesn't really care that much.

However, Xia Duo didn't care about this and didn't try to persuade him to continue. This was just a way for him to break up the other party, and he didn't really want to find the other party's wife.

Once he leaves, something might happen to Genit, and Sha Duo naturally doesn't want to see any accidents happen.

In fact, he decided to use magic to solve the problem early on, mental magic. However, the Golden Elf Secret Master has lived for hundreds of years, so it is difficult for Sha Duo to guarantee that mental magic will be effective on him.

Therefore, whether it is controlling him, taking off his protection, or even mentioning his wife, it is all to break down the other person's defensive will little by little.

Chateau pretended to think about it and walked behind Gurnet, then slowly walked around in front of him, looked at him meaningfully, and suddenly fired [Shock]!

Genit was a little confused, and his expression fell into extreme panic.

Immediately afterwards, Sha Duo fired another [Instruction]. This kind of judgment spell from [Projection Plane·Arcane Empire] was very effective.

Genit, who had just received the [Instruction] spell, did not have any abnormalities in his appearance, but his frightened state was slightly reduced.

Then, Xia Duo took the key to the mystery lock that looked like a miniature scepter and ordered: "Tell me what effect the mystery lock has in the library and how to release the protection!"

An expression of struggle flashed across Gurnet's face, but in the end he could not resist the effect of spiritual magic. According to Shado's instructions, he spoke clearly and clearly:

"Mystery Lock has only two effects, protection and expulsion. It protects the book and volume antiquities from damage by general disasters, and expels any creature that attempts to take the book and volume antiquities away from the initial position of the bookshelf three steps away."

As for how to remove the protection, Gurnet also explained the specific steps.

It can be said that it is much simpler than Xia Duo imagined. Although the Mystery Lock itself is very complex and high-end, not many can operate it in the hands of an elite mage like Gurnet.

Moreover, this mystery lock is just a miniature mystery lock that covers several bookshelves. It is difficult to perform complex functions like the mystery lock ruins in the Shado territory, which restricts spellcasting and builds elemental channels.

In fact, even Gurnet himself cannot take away any book from the bookshelf as long as the mystery lock protection is not released. If it is taken more than three steps, it will be expelled.

Destruction, of course, will not work. This will directly trigger the protection mechanism of the myth lock, and it will also be expelled.

The biggest countermeasure was expulsion, nothing else, which was somewhat beyond Xia Duo's expectation.

Of course, the real advantage of Myth Lock is the permanent change to the Ley Line environment.

Or in Xia Duo's words, the Mystical Lock is a special magic item that is purely woven from the strings of the magic web and has complex functions.

As long as simple maintenance is carried out regularly, it can last almost forever, which is difficult for ordinary magic items to achieve.

Even if it is not maintained, its existence time will be beyond imagination, which is a bit different from the shelf life of food on earth and the actual spoilage date.

[Dragon Madness Lock] is said to have existed since the ancient dragon era, and no one has maintained it in the later period. On the contrary, the elven kingdoms on the main plane have long lost control of it.

Maybe it can be used sporadically, but it is no longer the original creator.

At the same time, Mystery Lock also has a very powerful advantage, it can almost crush ordinary magic items.

That’s subsequent upgradeability!

The creator of the Mystery can later "reprogram" the Mystery as needed to make it have more complex or powerful functions.

Even Shado's spell book is considered a high-quality magic item in Netheril, but it can only add some spell pages later. As for the adjustment of the main structure, it is almost impossible to achieve.

If you have the time, you might as well redesign and make one!

Xia Duo has always been greedy for Mystic Locks, but that is the pinnacle of elf magic. He in the main plane has no access to any information on Mystic Locks.

Only this time, when he transformed into a drow and happened to meet a high mage who was obsessed with him, he obtained some secret information in the private library of the Crowry family matron.

But that is limited to some functional descriptions, not specific technical details.

This time in Domgas City, this was probably the closest he got to the secret of the Mystery Lock!

Taking Genit to the library in front of the courtyard, Shado's hand holding the key to the lock began to tremble unconsciously.

After taking a deep breath of the sweet air on the surface to calm down, Sha Duo stood within the range of the Mystery Lock's influence and took out the Mystery Lock key. It didn't need to be in sync with itself, it just needed to be activated in a specific order.

Surprisingly simple.

Once this miniature scepter-like mysterious key was activated, the surrounding magic network environment immediately changed. Sha Duo could only detect the changes in the magic network, but he could not tell what the specific changes were.

"It seems that it is difficult to understand the mystery lock through this mystery lock key!" Sha Duo thought with some frustration.

However, after seeing that the library was undefended, he finally felt relieved. Then he turned to Gurnet and ordered:

"Take down all the books, volumes and antiques from the bookshelf and put them over here!"

Shado casually stood in an open space three steps away from the books and not within the influence of the mystery lock, and motioned for Genit to come forward and work.

For Gurnet, even though he had discovered that he was controlled by the evil magic of the drow at this moment, his eyes were almost on fire.

But under Xia Duo's order, he still had to step forward, personally take down the books from under the bookshelf that he had painstakingly collected in the past, and put them in the open space designated by Xia Duo.

Xia Duo stood next to the pile of books. When the pile became too big, he overlapped this area with the portable space, and then separated it, and the pile of books appeared in the portable space.

This may seem a bit inefficient, but it feels really good to be able to instruct others to work at will!
