Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1049

"Lord Xiaduo, I'm in the Arcane Union right now, which area are you in, I'll go find you!"

Here is Rodit's reply.

Soon, almost as soon as Xia Duo walked out of the laboratory, Rodit's reply arrived. He didn't expect that Rodit was at the headquarters of the Austrian Law Federation at the moment, and he originally planned to go to the library first. Woolen cloth!
Not long ago, he just became a level 5 member of the Austrian Law Federation, and his reading authority in the library has also increased a lot, and there are more books that can be "scanned".

Although the Austrian Law Federation is a loose organization, it still has the foundation it should have, but ordinary people rarely have such authority.

And now, he happens to have authority beyond that of ordinary people.

However, since Rodit is also in the Arcane Federation, Xia Duo does not intend to leave him alone. As a spellcaster, he knows the value of time, so he went back to the address of the reception room next to a private laboratory.

……

In the reception room.

After the two parties were seated, Xia Duo was still thinking about going to the library, so he didn't make any detours and asked directly: "Master Rodit is ready to explore the ruins at Zenith this time?"

Hearing Xia Duo's inquiry, Rodit was taken aback for a moment, but then a look of surprise appeared on his face. Before Xia Duo said that he would give him an answer after the New Year's celebration, but now more than a month has passed since the celebration.

He originally thought that Xia Duo was expressing his refusal in this way. The real purpose of his visit this time was not to invite Xia Duo to participate in the ruins exploration plan, but he did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to mention this matter during this meeting. Doesn’t this mean——

"Lord Xiaduo, are you agreeing to participate in my exploration plan?"

Xia Duo nodded and gave an affirmative answer, "Yes, I agree, if the ruins are still there."

In fact, he wanted to agree before the celebration, anyway, it was just to provide [Soul Link], and he didn't need to participate in person.

Even if the exploration of the ruins is unfavorable, or the ruins are completely worthless, his benefits are still indispensable. Why not do this kind of thing!

This time he took the initiative to ask, to a certain extent, he was still worried that this month had passed, maybe the other party had already explored the ruins, and he was no longer needed.

However, such a situation did not happen, otherwise Rodit would not be so surprised. In fact, this Severton is not peaceful, and Rodit's original exploration companions proposed to postpone the exploration.

This delay lasted for a full month.

After receiving Xia Duo's clear answer, Rodit was in a good mood, for a moment he forgot the real purpose of his visit, and hurriedly began to explain:
"Lord Xiaduo, we have postponed our exploration plan due to the situation in Severton in the past month, but I have kept people watching over the ruins, and it has never been discovered by other explorers."

"Ah."

Xia Duo nodded to express his understanding, and then asked: "Master Rodite contacted me this time, are you sure you want to start exploring?"

"Yes! But—"

Rodit suddenly remembered the real purpose of this visit, and felt annoyed for a moment, so he quickly started to remedy, "I'm sorry, Lord Xiaduo, I was a little too excited when it came to exploring the ruins, and I forgot that I still have something to talk about. "

"Business? Isn't the exploration of the ruins a business?" Xia Duo joked.

cough--

With a fake cough, Rodit adjusted his emotions and said seriously: "Respected Lord Daxia, Senior Arcanist Xia Duo, in the name of my father—Lord Collins, Thunder Mage Mayen Collins, I send my greetings to you !"

"Lord Collins? Thunder Mage?"

Hearing these two key words, the memories of "Collins" and "Thunder Mage" were instantly activated in Xia Duo's mind.

Thunder mage Mine Collins, actually it doesn't mean that Mine Collins is good at thunder spells.

The so-called Thunder Mage actually originated from the war in which Netheril wiped out the largest orc tribe in the territory. Thunder refers to the most intense battle of Thunder Peak in the war.

The outstanding person in that battle was later called "Thunder Mage", which is an honorary title.

As for the Collins Territory, in Xia Duoke's memory, it is considered a relatively powerful territory. The current lord, that is, Rodit's father, Mayen, is a senior arcanist.

However, the information obtained by Xia Duo is old and delayed, and is not the latest status. Maybe Mayen has become a great arcanist at this moment!

"Say hello to your father for me too. If I have the chance, I would like to visit him in person." Xia Duo said very formally.

Hearing that, Rodit's face showed joy. So far, he has completed more than half of the mission of this visit. After going back this time, his father will not say that he is useless again!
"Father will be very happy to hear such news. Lord Collins welcomes His Excellency Xia Duo's visit at any time."

Xia Duo nodded, and then the two chatted about some details of the ruins exploration plan.

In Rodite's plan, there were five explorers who actually entered the ruins, and Xia Duo stayed outside to provide information analysis and on-the-spot command through [Mind Link].

As for the ruins, Rodit can only be sure that they are indeed left by the pioneers of the age of discovery. He organized ordinary people to explore before, but ordinary people have limited abilities and cannot ascertain the entire scope of the ruins.

This actually surprised Xia Duo. Rodit said that the scope of the ruins could not be ascertained, not all the details of the ruins could not be ascertained.

In this regard, Rodit’s statement is——

"In the age of discovery, everyone has access to Nether scrolls. No one knows what those pioneers are researching. The ruins we are going to explore this time are just a dilapidated mage tower hidden in the mist from the outside, but inside The environment is quite complicated, and the area is huge.”

"Have you mentioned the situation of this ruins to Lord Collins?" Xia Duo asked.

He suspected that this relic might be the product of a failed demiplane experiment, but even if it wasn't, the crystal-like but metal-like transparent frame he bought on Plain Street was worth studying.

Wouldn't Lord Collins be interested?
Xia Duo remembered that Rodit once said that his father specially trained a lot of relic hunters in order to reproduce the story of the Nether scroll.

"My father is not interested in the relics left by Nether mages. He said that what those pioneers could do in the past, he can do better now."

Rodit's tone was full of helplessness. If possible, he also wanted his father to participate, but there was nothing he could do if his father didn't want to.

In fact, he knew that even if his father had the opportunity to read the Nether scroll, he might not be able to reach the height of the forerunner of the Age of Discovery.

"So it is!"

Xia Duo understood immediately.
