Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1011
Soon, the sword of skill, whose body was like a black void but exuded crimson light, was pulled out by an elven mage named "Istima Galanod", and the future Kingdom of Cormanthor also welcomed the sword. Here comes its spellcaster leader.

Of course, there is no need to say more about the elf mages who failed the trial during this period. They were all cut off from the magic net by the sword of skill, and they would not be able to recover for at least 20 years.

After cheering for the future leader of the spellcaster, the trial of the Sword of Dominion finally began, and Xia Duo's heart gradually became suspended, as the old mage announced——

"Kefm Elithel!"

Xia Duo's mind went blank for a moment. Could it be that the so-called historical trend is really unchangeable?
No, the experience in [Projection Plane Arcane Empire] told him that the history in the projection plane will not completely evolve according to the direction of the main plane, and may even be so biased that he doesn't know where to go!
Perhaps it was because he had entered the projection plane for too short a time, and he had been staying in the Elf Court all the time, so it was difficult to generate more chain reactions.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo couldn't help but let out a long sigh in his heart, then quickly adjusted his mentality, and quietly observed Kephm's performance on the hexagonal silver platform.

There is inevitability in history, and there is also chance. Kephm on the main plane can pass the test, but not necessarily on the projection plane. Until the last moment, Xia Duo still has a glimmer of hope.

As Kephm put his hand deep into the golden light ball representing the sword of dominion, a faint golden light began to spread from his arm until it covered his entire body. Looking from a distance, it looked like a sacred place.

Such a scene did not appear in the previous trial ceremony of the two swords, which also confused the elves who watched the ceremony. Could it be that the first trialer will be the future crowned king of Cormanthor?
As a result, some elves began to inquire about Kephm's identity in whispers, and even artificially deified some of his actions and decisions.

Of course, some elves questioned Kephm's background, thinking that the people of Jarenstad could not accept the rule of a remnant of Uvelen.

Xia Duo saw all this in his eyes, and among the elves present, if anyone is most concerned about and looking forward to Kefum's ability to finally pass the trial and become the crowned king of Cormanthor, it is Celine Mo belonged.

There were no deaths in the trial of the sword of skill before, but there was a trial of the sword of war, and there was more than one case. Among the dead, there were many whose identities and backgrounds were far beyond those of the sunwing family.

Celine is very worried about her brother's safety. If Kephm can pass the test, then her brother doesn't need to take any risks!

Xia Duo could feel Celine's tension and dependence on him from the movement of Celine hugging his arm, but he was not a Lairben elf after all.

In this regard, he also tried his best to take care of the other party's emotions, but the premise was that it did not affect his plan.

……

Soon, on the hexagonal silver platform, the sound of lightning and thunder began to be heard from the golden light group. The sound became louder and louder, and as the sound gradually rose, Kephm also slowly pulled out his right hand.

At this moment, all the elves held their breath, even Xia Duo was no exception. Although he was confident that he could beat Kephm, the Sword of Dominion only "admitted" the first one who "scored 60 points in the exam", while Turn a blind eye to the "60+" or even "100 points" behind.

Is this the legendary "supernatural powers are not as good as days"?
Seeing this, Xia Duo is finally ready to accept the reality. No matter what, it is not a loss to go to the projection. Now it seems that it is just a little less profit.

And just when all the elves, including Xia Duo, thought that Kephm was about to succeed, on the silver platform, Kephm suddenly let go of his hand, with a frightened face, turned around and was about to run to the place where he was watching the ceremony before.

But the change was only in an instant, the golden light that originally enveloped Kephm quickly transformed into a green fire, engulfing him.

When the flames disappeared, Kephm, his clothes, armor, and weapons all disappeared, without leaving any traces.

It's like this elf has never been to the silver platform!
And the golden light ball floating quietly above the platform is still the same as before, waiting for the arrival of the next tester.

……

"What happened? Did he succeed?"

"Dead, completely dead!"

"How could this be?"

The elves watching the ceremony were chattering a lot, Xia Duo's eyes also flashed a trace of astonishment, sometimes fate likes to joke so much, he was ready to accept the reality, but he didn't expect a sudden turn of events.

Kephm failed!

What is this trial all about?Could it be that Kephm's previous experience was too different from the main plane, which made him fail the trial?

But Xia Duo didn't have time to think too much, because the old mage had already called his name——

Lyle Akarama!

Xia Duo was about to step forward, but Celine held his arm firmly and refused to let him go. The pear blossoms in her rainy eyes could not help showing a trace of pity even for a hard-hearted person.

Just when Xia Duo was about to ruthlessly tear her away, Parias stood up in time and just gently squeezed Celine's arm, Celine involuntarily let go of her hands and became silent.

Xia Duo could naturally see that Parias used magic, but this was exactly what he wanted, and then he gave the other party and Celine a reassuring look, and then walked forward.

……

The hexagonal silver platform was only a few inches high. If it hadn't been exuding a strong magical aura, it would have been more like a specially laid floor for this trial ceremony.

Walking onto the stage, stepping on a solid platform, the completely different touch from the soft grass outside made Xia Duo feel extremely comforted in his heart.

At this moment, he completely put aside all distracting thoughts, completely assumed the identity of "Lyle Akarama", and stepped forward to the center of the platform.

Looking at the golden light ball that was almost exactly the same as in the dream last night, Xia Duo suddenly had a sense of destiny, and then he firmly extended his right hand to the light ball.

Everything that happened after that was completely different from the dream.

In the dream, he directly pulled out the stone-like ruling sword that exuded golden light, but here, when Xia Duo's right hand came into contact with the golden light ball, he found that the surrounding scene had changed.

He sat upright on a throne in a grand hall, and under the throne stood more than a dozen figures with blurred faces in an orderly manner.

Judging by his attire, they should all be high-ranking people in the elf society, but at this moment, in front of Xia Duo, these high-ranking people saluted him respectfully one by one.

Such a scene made Xia Duo quite novel. Could this be the truth of the trial?A virtual illusion?Or the Sims?
As his doubts arose, an extraordinary golden elf under the throne came out first, and said to Xia Duo: "Many plantations such as Wang and Seer have reduced production this year. How should we deal with it?"
