Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1213 Inquiry Dispute
Giles Tower, Projection Hall.

Just when Xia Duo was thinking about choices and making a secret decision, the teleportation was completed, and eight familiar figures appeared in the projection hall from scratch.

As soon as these people appeared, they restricted the surrounding environment of the magic net. Xia Duo was aware of this, and he frowned, but he didn't say anything.

"Xia Duo, let me introduce what you know and the leaders of the Seven Towers."

The first person to speak was none other than Iolum, whom Xiaduo first contacted.

He glanced in the projection hall first, and then walked up to Xia Duo, intentionally or unintentionally separating Xia Duo from the other seven people, and he didn't have any intention of provoking a teacher, and his tone was quite protective.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo's thoughts surged in his heart. He had doubted this teacher just now, but now is he thinking wrong, or is the other party too good at pretending?
Looking at the other great arcanists, except for Schum, who was obviously a little frightened, Xia Duo didn't see much emotion on the faces of the others.

For a while, he really couldn't tell what these people were thinking, so he followed Iolum's words and began to explain: "The thing is like this——

"I went to Leisen for a visit this morning. Because I talked about a secret matter, I invited His Excellency Cliff. After some communication, we decided to go to the Star Realm to explore a secret place together. This time is probably at dusk.

"Afterwards, we each came to Severton. I first went to the Austrian Union to meet with the teacher and inquired about the exploration of the astral world, and then came here.

"The exploration of the astral realm was initiated by His Excellency Cliff, and the participants included His Excellency Thorne, the Eternal Holy Spirit. The three of us set off from here to the astral realm together. Later, we were attacked by indigenous hunters. According to the agreement, I returned first.

"As soon as I came back, I saw His Excellency Cliff turned into flying ash in front of my eyes. I was also very shocked by such a big incident. I immediately notified the teacher, and the rest of you probably knew about it."

Except for the ruins of the dream and the resurrection spell, Xia Duo didn't say anything. He said everything else he could say. As for whether the great arcanists in the Seven Towers believed it or not, he was not sure.

After Xia Duo finished speaking, he lowered his eyebrows and remained silent. The others, including Iolum, did not continue to ask questions, but used their own methods to check Cliff's relics.

After a while, Randall was the first to express his opinion: "He didn't lie, and Cliff is indeed dead!"

"How is this possible? A great arcanist just died during an astral exploration?"

"Could it be that the incarnation of the astral projection is too late to escape back to the main plane?"

"With Thorn here, something like this still happens, hehe!"

……

As soon as several great arcanists opened their mouths, they led the topic to the direction of conspiracy theory, especially Harris of Fenwick Tower, who almost said clearly that this matter had nothing to do with Thorne.

Instead, the only survivor of this incident suddenly became an outsider.

Hearing Harris' unwarranted accusations, the new head of the Gilles Tower, Schom, suddenly changed his face and angrily said: "Harris, I have always respected you as a wise elder in the past, but you didn't To think of you making such foolish remarks!
"You and I know exactly what Thorne is. Back then, he didn't choose Fenwick Tower, but chose Giles Tower. Could it be because of his birth?"

"cough--"

Xia Duo was listening interestingly, but Badigal suddenly interrupted Schom, and the others also stopped around the two of them, and there was no shortage of words of persuasion.

"You two, in this situation, the most important thing we should think about is how to deal with the aftermath, instead of making a fuss about nothing here!
"The death of a great arcanist is not a trivial matter, let alone someone with a special status like Cliff, who died in the Tower of Gilles. There must be an explanation for this matter!"

After the princess left, Badigal had a lot of prestige, and his words quickly calmed Schom and Harris, but Harris still had a lot of problems:
"Isn't investigating the cause of death the aftermath? The current situation requires a clear result that can withstand the inspection of others! Hmph, I think Schom is still too young, why don't you ask Master Byron how to deal with it?" !"

"you--"

Schom snorted coldly, but didn't continue to say anything. Instead, he glanced at Xia Duo in the end, which made Xia Duo feel bad. If he also blamed himself, he would be too narrow-minded!

"Okay, don't say a word!"

Badigal's face was obviously a little unhappy. When and what occasion was this, and he was still thinking about it, he gave Harris a hard look, and then asked Randall:
"Randall, what do you think of this?"

"Although what Lord Xiaduo said is true, it may not reflect the whole truth. Whether it is a conspiracy theory or an accident theory, it is impossible for a great arcanist to die so easily. I think it is necessary to investigate further. .”

At the end, Randall turned the topic to Xiaduo again. He walked slowly to Xiaduo, nodded slightly to Iolum, and asked:

"Lord Xiaduo, you just said that you and Cliff went to explore a secret place in the star realm. Can you tell me what kind of secret place it is? And you said that you encountered a native hunter in the star realm, what kind of hunter? Can Thorne and Cliff be unable to deal with it?"

"this--"

Xia Duo glanced at Iolum, saw the other party nodded slightly, and then continued to explain: "The previous question, the secret place we are going to, Mr. Cliff called it the 'Dream Ruins', where and what is it specifically? The situation, before I went there, I encountered an accident and returned to the main plane, which I can't answer.

"As for the situation of the hunters, Lord Thorne seems to know something about those hunters, but he didn't explain me to me. Lord Cliff may also know, but now he...

"I only know that those hunters hunt in the star realm in small groups, and are good at tracking and melee combat. Only those hunters we encountered, I don't think they can hurt Thorn and Cliff, but Their subsequent reinforcements, I'm not sure, and—"

"And what?" Randall immediately asked, and the others immediately turned their attention to Xia Duo.

Xia Duo was not panicked by this, but he couldn't figure out some things, and he didn't know how to speak. After thinking about it, he first asked everyone a question:
"If—I mean, if—Your Excellency Cliff stays there for another two days after I leave the star realm, will we return to the main plane together?"

This question is actually very scary to think about. Xia Duo was not even willing to think about such a question in the past, but now something happened, and the matter still fell on him, so he had to think about it.
