Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1245
The private residence of members of the Austrian Law Federation, level 5.

There is no sun and moon in the laboratory, and I don't know how long it has passed. Xia Duo, who was devoting himself to the trial production of the demon-slaying arrow, was suddenly interrupted by a message——

"Xia Duo, we're here!"

so fast?

Xia Duo looked at the [Magic Moment] that was blessed almost all the time, only to realize that it was almost noon, and the person who summoned him was none other than Abeck who was summoned by him.

In the early morning, after Xia Duo came to Severton from Watch Island, he sent a message to Niya not long after. In addition to telling Nya that the matter here was basically over, the other thing was to ask Ebaker to send Derrick and Aiwa to Come to Sevington.

In two days at the latest, Xia Duo will hand over Harlanside Manor to Lord Harlan. This manor will be his temporary residence in Sevington in the future, yes, but it can also be used as the residence of the "Beijing Office" staff .

As for who should be stationed in Sevington, Xia Duo already has a favorite candidate.

That's Ava.

Today's Great Xia Territory is on the right track. Aiwa, a high-level wanderer, can play a very limited role in the territory. It is really a waste to keep him in the territory.

Perhaps Sevington will be a better stage for him.

As for Derrick, Xia Duo falsely used his identity to go to the Harlan Chamber of Commerce before, so it is more appropriate to hand over some follow-up handovers to him. Anyway, with the teleportation circle, there is no need to pay much extra for bringing one more person .

Xia Duo didn't make Ebeck wait any longer. He contacted Tom, who was almost his exclusive general affairs deacon, and asked him to bring him in. He quickly cleaned up the traces left by the trial-manufactured demon-slaying arrow in the laboratory, and then left the experiment room.

……

"Uncle Eberke, I really have troubled you this time."

"No trouble, I'm thinking of coming to Sevington too!" Abeck's eyes moved slightly, and he asked meaningfully, "Is that matter really over?"

"If nothing else happens, it's over!"

Xia Duo knew that Eberke was talking about the death of Cliff, perhaps this time Eberke came here with Niya's entrustment on his shoulders, and wanted to confirm the end of this incident.

Xia Duo didn't care about this. If it were him, he would know more about it.

"By the way, Uncle Ebuke, what's your plan next?"

"Go to the Mystic Temple, and then return to the southern border."

Xia Duo nodded. He knew that Eberke not only had the status of mage and arcanist, but also the status of bard and mystery priest.

Savile Land does not have a temple for the goddess of magic. As a mysterious priest of the goddess, if you come to Severton and don't go to the temple of mystery, it will be unreasonable.

Xia Duo was not prepared to interfere too much with Eberke's belief issue, and it was not his turn to interfere with such a personal issue.

"In that case, I won't keep Uncle Eberke here. I still have some important matters to deal with. We'll meet again when we return to the Tower of Time."

"it is good."

Abeck didn't say much, just nodded and left quickly.

……

Eberke left, but Derrick and Aiwa stayed. Xia Duo first asked Aiwa about the development status of the territory during the days when he left.

To this, Aiwa only replied very briefly, "Everything is fine in the territory."

Xia Duo knew that Aiwa was not good at words, so he had to ask some specific questions, such as the development progress of the [Great Xia-Saville Passage], the construction progress of the new village, and so on.

"My lord, currently a quarter of the [Big Xia-Saville Passage] has been initially opened, and the construction of the new village has entered the second phase. Before I came, I met with the consul of Leiden, and he told me that it will be opened in half a month. A collective grant of land was carried out, and those who were the first batch of land grants opened three taverns and two grocery stores in the territory, and the citizens liked it very much."

Xia Duo was overjoyed when he heard that a quarter of the [Great Xia-Saville Passage] had been opened, but this number was still far beyond expectations.

He felt that maybe only a quarter of the trees in the forest that the passage passed through had been cut down, but the passage that was actually planned needed to level the road surface, pave gravel, and drill blocks, not just to open an opening for the Green Pearl Forest.

The construction of the new village was within his expectations. After all, there was already a plan, and it was just a matter of gradually implementing it according to the plan.

As for the new taverns and grocery stores that appeared in the territory, Xia Duo didn't know about it in advance, but the embryonic form of business in the territory was completely in his plan.

The significance of granting land is not only to complete the agreement with the people, but also to transfer wealth to the people and activate the commercial system of the territory.

In the future, these artificially supported property owners will also be the first consumers of the Tower of Time's magic items.

This can also be regarded as expanding domestic demand and stabilizing prices, so as to prevent excess production capacity from dragging the Tower of Time into meaningless vicious competition with outside Mage Tower organizations.

Then, Xia Duo asked some more about the current situation of the territorial guards and Jacco and his son, and got Aiwa's more detailed answers.

Aiwa just doesn't like talking, it's not that he doesn't have opinions and can't speak.

After Xia Duo left, the Territorial Guard had an unexpected downsizing. Four died and one was disabled. The reason was that the patrol team encountered a troll when expanding the patrol border.

Only half of the ten-man team survived.

And that troll was startled away by another supporting team with a magic scroll.

The troll was found again near the territory. Layton decisively narrowed the patrol border and strengthened the patrol. It is still unknown whether the troll is still wandering around the territory.

As for Jia Ke and his son, how can they find any relics in a short period of time, this period of time is nothing more than wandering around in the forest.

In addition, Xia Duo also asked about the preaching and implementation of the Territory Code, and the dissemination of the Great Xia Code in Savile Territory (Atwood is in charge).

By asking Aiwa, Xia Duo has a more comprehensive understanding of the current situation of the territory. When he returns to the territory, he will start to deal with the troll problem.

But this time, he didn't plan to do it himself, but wanted to train the team.

Trolls are powerful, but they are not invincible, especially the strictly trained territory guards are capable of defeating (one) troll.

As for a complete kill, it is not difficult to do it with the magic scroll provided by Xia Duo.

……

After Aiwa, Xia Duo did not ask Derrick about the current situation of the Savile Territory. On the one hand, the system of the Savile Territory and the Great Xia Territory is different, and it is difficult for Derrick to know the situation other than business.

On the other hand, strictly speaking, Derrick is not counted as his direct subordinate or subject, so asking such a question is somewhat suspected of overstepping his authority.

Although, in Xia Duo's plan, the Great Xia Territory and the Savile Territory will eventually merge into one, but now, it is still necessary to consider the feelings of Savile's old courtiers.
