Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1046 Another God?funding the arts

However, Jenna did not give any instructions to Seid immediately, but said to Xia Duo:
"Lord Xia Duo, it seems that our meeting has to come to an end this time. Something happened temporarily, and I have to deal with it personally. Next time we have a chance, we will continue to communicate."

Seeing that Jenna didn't look like a liar, Xia Duo wondered what happened to make a great arcanist so anxious, and quickly replied:
"No problem, President Jenna, go get busy if you have something to do, and look forward to the next communication."

Jenna nodded, and then told Seid: "After I leave, you continue to entertain Lord Xiaduo for me."

"Yes."

Afterwards, Jenna didn't speak directly, but used a spell to communicate some situations, to which Ced nodded repeatedly.

On the other hand, although Xia Duo did not intend to pry into the secrets of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, Jenna may be really anxious, or maybe he underestimated his research on the communication spell, and did not choose a complicated encryption method during the communication.

Among the elf spells, there is a technique called "wind message", which is very good at stealing and deciphering the content of the message.

Coincidentally, Xia Duo just mastered this technique, and just happened to steal part of Jenna's information, and successfully cracked it.

This part of the content, there is only one sentence in total-"A new god has appeared in the heavens"!
When hearing this sentence, Xia Duo was greatly shocked. How long has it been since the princess ascended to the gods? Why did a new god appear again!
However, this news was overheard from Jenna, so it is highly credible.

But also because he only overheard a few words, it was difficult to make a judgment on the current situation. Maybe the new god appeared and then fell, or maybe the new god did exist, but it was not born from the main plane.

What is the situation, Xia Duo felt that he had put a naughty kitten in his heart, and kept scratching.

He wanted to ask Jenna, but he couldn't explain how he knew the news of "the appearance of a new god". He was hesitating, and the magic net around him shook briefly and sharply.

When Xia Duo came back to his senses, President Jenna had disappeared, and only he and Seid were left in the reception room.

"Lord Xiaduo, the president asked me to stay here to entertain you. Let me show you the environment of the headquarters. It was originally a private estate of the Yeerlan elves. It was later bought by the president and became the headquarters of the chamber of commerce. The scenery is still very good. of."

Xia Duo could see that Seid was trying to stay calm, but he couldn't hide his shock. Perhaps Seid himself hadn't noticed it, but in Xia Duo's eyes, it was almost as obvious as ink dripping on white paper.

Even when he was taking him to visit the headquarters, Seid often lost his mind, but this gave Xia Duo a chance. It was difficult to ask anything in front of Jenna just now, and it was difficult to explain how he knew about the new god.

But now, Seid is obviously preoccupied, so it is only normal for him to care about and test him out as a friend.

After Seid lost his mind once, Xia Duo took the initiative to remind the other party, "Consultant Seid, I don't know what President Jenna said to you just now. You have been distracted just now. If it is convenient, can you tell me?"

"Ah! Lord Xiaduo, I'm sorry, the news is so shocking that it's hard for me not to think about it. As for what news—"

Said's face changed a few times, but he still didn't say it in the end, "I'm sorry, Lord Xiaduo, the president didn't allow me to reveal it to others."

"..."

Xia Duo was speechless for a moment. He could see that Seid had a great desire to talk, but he swallowed the words a few times, which made him panic to death.

This also made him more interested in the news of "New God".

Even Jenna, who has a close relationship with the princess, has just started planning the Ascension Ceremony. It is almost impossible for others to do any advanced operations, but it is not ruled out to do it secretly.

Seeing that the princess succeeded, he also started to try, and then succeeded.

Of course, this is just Xia Duo's speculation. There is no evidence that the new god is related to Netheril, and may be an elf.

Even born from other planes.

"Ascension Ceremony!"

Thinking of this, Xia Duo instantly lost the idea of ​​continuing to visit. He wanted to return to the Tower of Time to study the Ascension Ritual Book carefully.

However, he did not leave immediately. If he leaves now, Seid may think that he is dissatisfied with him for not disclosing the news, and the friendship that was originally in the bud may be frustrated by this.

Whether it is utility or etiquette.

In the end, Xia Duo insisted on visiting the headquarters of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. The exquisiteness here is indeed good, but it is a pity that the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce has remodeled this place in order to use it as its headquarters.

And he could see that the people who led the transformation deliberately created a unique style that was different from elves, but even more so than elves.

But judging from the aesthetic concept that Xia Duo brought over from the earth, as well as the experience of being an elf in the projection plane many times.

The transformation of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce did not break away from the elf-style cage, but it made the place lose its color a lot, almost completely losing the charm of the elf architectural style.

Leaving aside the good and bad of the elves themselves, in all honesty, the elves' artistic accomplishments are undoubtedly quite high, and their architectural styles are also very much in line with Xia Duo's wishes.

Mingshui Chamber of Commerce headquarters here——

Pity!
This is the most intuitive feeling after Xia Duo's visit, but at the same time, he is also worried about the invisible influence of elves, so he can't help but have an idea, that is——

Funding Netheril native artists!

No matter what the expression form of his art is, as long as he dares to question the elves and innovate, he will support it.

Of course, in this process, it is also necessary to mix in some of your own private goods.

It can even be said that Xia Duo wants to use his own private goods to influence and inspire local artists in Netheril, not only to break the spiritual imprisonment of the elves, but also to create a civilized environment that suits his own wishes.

……

After leaving the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, Xia Duo did not continue to wander around the city of Severton, or go to the sea, but came to the Austrian Law Federation.

As a level 5 member, he is already eligible to have an exclusive private laboratory here, of course, it is only for use, and he cannot take away the equipment and facilities inside.

After entering the laboratory, Xia Duo briefly looked around and found that the environment here was not as good as the Tower of Time, so he lost interest immediately.

But he didn't come here for any experiments, but to transfer the Ascension Ceremony information books.

Even though the dimensional bag he is using now is produced by the Tower of Time, and the maker is the former tower owner Epps Saville himself.

But the Dimensional Bag is essentially a small spell-bound area connected to the Ethereal Plane, and if someone travels in the Ethereal Plane, they just happen to find this area.

Or meet a professional spell thief, isn't that a tragedy soon!

It's safer to keep it in your pocket.

The reason why I chose to transfer to the laboratory of the Arcane Federation is also because it is the only place in Severton where you can cast spells at will.

Other places are either less conspicuous, or have various restrictions.

Don't look at how easy it seems for Xia Duo to obtain the materials for the Ascension Ceremony, but if you were an ordinary mage, you might have never even heard of the name Ascension Ceremony!
It's better to be cautious.

Xia Duo put up a lot of protection in the laboratory, especially for detection spells. He almost thought he knew that all spells, including elf magic, had been cast over and over again.

After that, he quickly took out the information booklet from the dimensional bag, and put it into the portable space.

In the portable space, Xia Duo doesn't need to take it out if he wants to check it, he can directly control the information booklet to turn pages in it.
