Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1163 One general will succeed
"After many years, a new great arcanist was born in Netheril, and the power of the Arcane Federation has once again grown. Now, let us pay tribute to Schom Hemaniel and Doraison Hawke !"

After finishing speaking, Conjenio stood up first and saluted the two great arcanists. Afterwards, everyone in the hall saluted them in the same way.

After Schom and Lord Hawke returned their salutes, the crowd sat down again, and there was no voting as Xia Duo imagined, it was just a formality.

Afterwards, Conjenio continued: "In Netheril today, new forces are constantly emerging. As an old man who has almost watched the development of Netheril, I feel very gratified.

"And the Austrian Law Federation, to me, is not just a place to work, it is more like my home. I have watched it improve a little bit over the years, and if I can, I am willing to serve it 100 years.

"But in recent years, I have felt more and more exhausted, and I can no longer take care of it. For this reason, I have found a suitable successor to replace me to serve the Arcane Federation, serve you, and serve all spellcasters. !"

As soon as the voice fell, there were bursts of low-pitched calls in the hall, and the directors of the Austrian Law Federation headed by Hechenit called out the name in unison:

"Iolum!"

"Iolum!"

Afterwards, those who knew and those who didn't all cast their eyes on the person next to Conjenio, and even Xia Duo behind that person received a lot of baptism.

And Conjenio's introduction is still going on——

"Hundreds of years ago, there were many orc tribes in Netheril. With the support of those powerful tribes, the orcs launched orc waves again and again, which brought countless sufferings to Netheril. The end will all be attributed to one person!

"In the past 125 years, there have been 742 major battles, 120 regular battles, and countless other large and small battles. Finally, [-] years ago, after the Battle of Thunder Peak, all the organized orc tribes in Netheril were completely wiped out."

At this moment in the hall, most of the people were born after the battle of Thunder Peak, but they are no strangers to that battle, and even the countless previous battles of destroying beasts.

After all, in the past, Iolum only wiped out most of the large-scale orc tribes, but did not wipe out all the orcs, and it was almost impossible to wipe them all out.

As long as there are orcs, there will be people who mention the past war of destroying beasts, and in the war of destroying beasts, Iolum's name is definitely the one mentioned the most.

At this moment, Iolum's name was called out again by everyone, even Xia Duo subconsciously repeated it twice.

But at the same time, Xia Duo was still relatively calm in his heart. For now, except for his contribution to the war of destroying beasts, Iolum seems to have no outstanding achievements.

When it comes to the war of destroying beasts, it seems that there is no one else to talk about except for Iolum. As the saying goes, "one general will succeed and all bones will die", in fact, it is not that there are no other people, but——

Except for Iolum, almost no one has been able to participate in this war that lasted for nearly a hundred years, let alone live until now, either dying of old age or dying in battle.

Countless human and beast lives piled up, and it was only in exchange for the name "Iolum"!
At the same time, Xia Duo also thought of the honorary title of "Master of Thunder", which is to honor the last and cruelest battle in the Beast Extermination War - the outstanding person in the Battle of Thunder Peak.

Rodit's father, Lord Collins, inherited this title. If there is no accident, Rodit will continue to inherit it in the future.

There was "Iolum" and "Thunder Mage", but those victims hardly left their names. Xia Duo knew some of them, but most of those names were hidden in the pile of old papers in the library, and they were not widely known.

It seems that only heroes, only living people, can be remembered by the world and history, which has to be said to be a kind of sadness.

……

Just as Xia Duo was meditating, Iolum had stood up amidst the shouts of the crowd, and he solemnly took the pen and scroll handed to him by Congeigno, which symbolized the arbitration duties of the president of the Austrian Law Federation. , and then make the first announcement as the president:

"From now on, I will continue to abide by the principles of neutrality and impartiality, and serve Netheril, the Arcane Federation, you, and all spellcasters!"

Then, a strong magical aura erupted in the hall.

Xia Duo, who was close to the wall, felt this even more strongly, as if he was sitting on a source point of a spell that was about to explode. If it was another occasion, or if he didn't know about it, then staying away immediately was his only choice up.

But fortunately, this is the scene of the joint meeting of the Grand Arcanists of the Arcane Federation, and Conjenio reminded him before the meeting, so that he could continue to sit in place with peace of mind.

The effect of the magic was soon revealed, and it was not a certain person who changed, but the hall itself——

The outer wall of the circular hall has been rotated by nearly 30 degrees!
Or to be more precise, the entire interior of the hall has rotated nearly 30 degrees, but the people in the hall used themselves as a reference and did not feel any movement on the ground, it seemed that the outer wall was moving.

In the center of the rotated hall, Conjenio was originally facing the gate, but now Iolum was replaced, which also seemed to symbolize the transfer of authority.

The subsequent meetings were all presided over by Iolum, but Conjenio did not leave immediately, but next time, I am afraid that I will not see this old president who has served for hundreds of years!

"The Iolum era of the Arcane Federation has come, will Netheril's be far behind?" Looking at the not-so-strong back of Iolum in front of him, Xia Duo thought deeply.

Being in the same era as such a person is a kind of misfortune for any genius spellcaster, and what is even more unfortunate is that with the existence of various life-extending spells, Iolum's influence will last longer.

Xia Duo doesn't think he's a very smart person. His current achievements are more due to the systematic modern education he received in his hometown before crossing, and his high scientific literacy, so that he can go smoothly in the field of magic.

This is actually because the current Netheril magic system is relatively complete!

In terms of sorting out, discovering and applying existing knowledge, Xia Duo, who has experience in another world and has high scientific literacy, is able to feel like a fish in water.

New spells such as [Shadow Art], which involve the principle of material change, and new magic creations such as the magic scroll printing machine that integrates the experience of the earth and the technology of the magic world.

And even various improved spells, improved magic items, and improved production methods.

It seems that the results are quite fruitful, but when it comes to the exploration of cutting-edge theories and technologies, he has made little achievements.

Things like the background communication of the magic net, permanent magic, and the materialization of the strings of the magic net are either obtained from the projected plane or researched by members of the Tower of Time.
