Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1264 The task is coming

Perhaps because I heard Xia Duo's heartfelt voice, Elise paid a surprise visit that night and gave Xia Duo a task——

"Reliable news has been received from above that the Cormanthor elves are preparing to plan a large search. For the safety of the headquarters, we must force them to disperse their forces.

"Tomorrow I will send you to the border of Comanso. Your task is to destroy them as much as possible. The bigger the movement, the better. You need to persist for at least ten days. I will contact you after ten days."

As soon as Xia Duo heard the content of this mission, he felt that there was something wrong with it. It is true that he is a senior arcanist, but "Mecade" is indeed an ordinary high-level mage.

This task is no different from sending him to death, and the most important thing is that he was not given a teammate. Could this be another trial?
As if seeing the suspicion in Xia Duo's heart, Elise gave a very reasonable explanation: "This mission is mainly to delay and disperse the other party's strength. Apart from you, other mission teams will also disperse their actions.

"And this mission does not require results. As long as you can still contact me after ten days, you will have a guaranteed point. If you are worried, you can find a corner to hide after leaving the base."

This is 100% a temptation!

Xia Duo knew that "Mecade" himself hated Cormanthor very much, and also had a high sense of identity and belonging to the Arcane Empire and the Division of Vengeance Trials.

Dissatisfaction with one's own situation does not deserve this kind of identification and belonging.

Elise is also very clear about this.

Well, if Xia Duo didn't make a big scene in this mission, even if he returned to the base ten days later, he would be treated as a spy in all likelihood!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo immediately knew how to answer, "Don't worry, my lord, Mecad will definitely do his best to complete this task!"

In fact, this task is beneficial to Xia Duo, which means that he does not need to guard the three teammates and can move freely.

As for the big scene, it is not difficult for a senior arcanist to handle a big scene for a high-level mage.

And more importantly, as long as he doesn't fall into a maze, even if he encounters a high-ranking mage, he is confident in escaping.

……

Early the next morning, Xia Duo and five members of Elise's other mission team were sent out of the base one by one by Elise.

Xia Duo was the last one, and it might be because he was suspicious. He always felt that Elise's arrangement had some kind of deep meaning, but now he just needs to adapt to the changes.

……

When he came to the surface, Xia Duo roughly distinguished the location, and found that he was actually near the Wolf God Mountain, which corresponds to the south of the Green Pearl Forest in the southern border of Netheril, the main plane. (Big Xia leads south)
Going east from here is the Ristar Forest, which is Comanthor.

The task time is ten days, and Xia Duo is not in a hurry. He is more concerned about what Elise mentioned last night, "Comanthor is going to conduct a big search."

In fact, the approximate location of the headquarters of the Revenge Trial Division is not highly confidential. Many people including "Mecade" know it, and it is even part of the academy education——

The headquarters is under the ruins of the empire!

In the memory of "McCard", the Cormanthor elves have not stopped searching for the remnants of the empire for nearly a hundred years, but there has never been a large search for the headquarters.

Or rather, appeared, but with the authority of "McCard" is not enough to understand.

But now, "McCard" has been informed, perhaps the situation is already very critical.

Xia Duo decided to go to the Severton ruins first, so as not to have a big battle and completely smash the ruins, and nothing can be fished out.

Even though he knew that it had been nearly a hundred years since the Arcane Empire collapsed, and that the Judgment of Vengeance or other possible resistance organizations must have searched the Severton ruins, he was still unwilling to search for it in an unrealistic way.

Maybe in the library of a certain college, or in a corner of the Resurrection Department, you can find the resurrection spell!

Anyway, with a portable space, his search efficiency is definitely higher than others!

……

Just do what you say, but before that, Xia Duo needs to disappear in the "eyes" of Elise or other possible observers.

A burst of light and shadow distorted, Xia Duo turned himself into an elf, and then cast a flying spell to fly to the east at a high speed.

This flight lasted nearly two hours, and finally he stopped in front of a tall, thick, old tree with luxuriant branches, which was the border mark of the mystic provided by the Division of Vengeance Judgment.

After crossing this ancient tree, you will enter the Comanthor Great Mystic System. With the current hostile relationship between the two sides, it is difficult for mere illusions of light and shadow to escape the automatic detection of the Mystic.

——【Mysterious Lock Invasion Technique】!
Xia Duo resolutely used this [Revenge Judgment Division] field standard spell. During the long struggle, both the remnants of the empire and the Comanthor side learned a lot from the other side, and they all had a good understanding of the other side's good tricks. Method of restraint.

This 【Mystic Intrusion Technique】is the safest way to enter the range of the Mystic, which was explored by the Vengeance Judge at a huge cost.

In contrast, Comanthor has also found many methods to deal with the repeated resurrection of the remnants of the empire. Whether it is blocking the summoning of the soul after death, or the erosion of negative energy before death, it can lead to the failure of the resurrection.

This really corresponds to the saying - "War is the best catalyst for technological progress"!
……

After casting the [Mystery Lock Invasion Technique], the phantom of the phantom on Xia Duo's body was distorted again, and it seemed to become more real, but in fact, the flaws could still be discerned with the naked eye.

[Mystery Intrusion] has nothing to do with whether or not he is an elf, even if Xia Duo keeps his original appearance now, it will not affect the use of this spell.

Its real function is to mislead the automatic judgment of the mythos, modify the human information into elves, but enter the range of the mythos with a human appearance, even if the mythos do not respond, the elves will know that there is an enemy coming.

However, everything Shadow has done so far has been designed to mislead a possible observer—Elise, or someone above.

So far what he's doing is in the normal pattern of action for a vengeful inquisitor, but when he enters the mythic range, everything changes again.

The detection spells from the outside to the inside of the mythos will trigger the mythos alarm, and Cormanthor will definitely be aware of it, so at this time, Xia Duo is considered to be cut off from the sight of the revenge judge.

Next, it's time for him to act!
I saw him imitating the posture of an elf, jumping up and down in the forest, and in a blink of an eye, he sank into the depths of the forest, but he only entered the range of the mysia less than 500 meters, then changed the direction, and returned to the border of the mysia.

Before leaving the range of the Mystic, Xia Duo thoughtfully blessed himself with multiple spells to avoid detection and mislead detection, and then disappeared, before flying towards the northwest at a high speed.
