Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1266

Although those knowledge may be a little behind compared to the survivors of the empire who have developed for nearly a hundred years, but there are definitely some who are not behind.

Moreover, this is already the easiest harvest for Xia Duo to find on this projection plane. If the resurrection spell is not found, the harvest here is worthwhile.

But when he came to the ruins of the library and saw the scene that had been cleaned up, he couldn't help sighing, "Sure enough, it's still a step late."

The timeline he is in now is about a hundred years after the collapse of the empire. According to the memory of "Mecade", after the collapse that year, more than 20 great arcanists survived, almost half of the empire's heyday.

Of course, the fall of the Empire is in its heyday.

There are more than 20 great arcanists who have spent nearly a hundred years, even if they do it themselves, they should have recovered most of the resources and materials.

Fortunately, before Xia Duo came, he didn't have the mentality of finding something. He was more of a fluke mentality. If others forgot or didn't find out, then he had a chance.

Now that he has made a fool of himself, he won't be too disappointed.

Moreover, Comanthor has been searching for the remnants of the empire. Even the Grand Arcanist cannot carry out excavations in a sensitive area like Severton with great fanfare. There must be "fish" that slipped through the net here.

It's just a few more walks.

……

Then, Xia Duo searched again inside the college, focusing on the laboratory and the principal's private residence.

In these places, he found some "fish that slipped through the net", such as supplies, and just skipped them. There are a total of twelve piles of experimental records that are really valuable.

Yes, use "heap", not volume.

Those experimental record books were suppressed by the big rocks from the roof, and they were hardly affected by the chaos magic. Nearly a hundred years later, they were still well preserved.

In addition, I found a few books in the principal's private residence, among which Xia Duo thought the most important was a catalog of topics shared by the Imperial Academy of Magic.

It was co-edited by the three magic schools in Severton, mainly to avoid resource waste caused by duplication of topics, and also to a certain extent for win-win cooperation to deal with the pressure from foreign schools.

This book is called "Table of Contents", but it actually includes the actual progress of the three schools' projects, but it lacks a lot of details.

But in the study of magic, ideas definitely account for a considerable proportion.

This kind of book was placed before the empire was destroyed, and only the principal and a few senior professors were eligible to own it. Ordinary teachers, such as Eddie who was the incarnation of Xia Duo at that time, even if they were transferred from a department with real power like the Judgment Division, they were not assigned to them. Even one copy.

It is a pity that Xia Duo only found this one in the principal's residence this time, which is the first issue of the sharing catalog, which should be the latest issue at that time.

I don't know if it was destroyed by the magic net riot, or it has already been picked up by the early excavators.

If you can find all the previous sharing catalogs, you may have a more comprehensive and thorough understanding of the magic development of the Arcane Empire.

Moreover, these knowledge systems can also allow Xia Duo to bring back to the main plane and reproduce them in the Tower of Time, just like the prototype of an arcane empire.

In Xia Duo's view, the context of these developments is more important than specific magic and technology.

……

After leaving the Academy of Magic, Xia Duo immediately went to the Judgment Division he was more familiar with, but he didn't find much valuable things in the Judgment Division, because there were previous patrons here.

Except for some trial documents, there is nothing else. He thought he would find some advanced spiritual spells here, but he didn't expect to find nothing.

But if you think about it, an important place like the Judiciary will definitely be searched intensively. If there is any spell information, it should be taken away as soon as possible.

Only those trial documents were discarded by the searchers when the empire was already destroyed, and then discovered by Xia Duo.

But it didn't make much sense for Xia Duo to take this thing. At most, he took it back to show Layton, and provided him with some trial cases in the magical society.

……

After the Judgment Division, Xia Duo went to the First and Third Magic Academy, as well as the Resurrection Division, the Supervision Division, the Selection Division, and even the Conservation Division, but the further he went, the less he found.

It's not that there are fewer written records that can be found, but that there are fewer and fewer valuable things.

Like the Department of Childcare, the headquarter of the Department of Childcare in the capital Severnton naturally does not need to provide places for recuperation and nurturing for pregnant women and babies. It is more like a research department, researching issues related to assisted reproduction and childcare.

But such a place is the most important thing for the survivors of the empire who have a grand arcanist to do strategic planning.

In order to avoid Comanso's search, most of the empire's survivors live underground. If there are no conservation measures, the population will become smaller and smaller. There will be strong enemies outside and a population crisis inside. If things go on like this, the empire will completely perish.

What Xia Duo can find here are some pregnant women and baby lists, and nothing else.

There is also the Department of Selected Records, which involves key figures in the rise of the empire like the Great Sage, and Xia Duo couldn't even find a single piece of paper here.

I don't know if it is the surviving great arcanist of the empire, or the elves from Cormanthor. In short, the search here is extremely clean, and it is the cleanest among the key departments of the empire that Xia Duo has visited, with almost no residue.

"It seems that we can only go to the research institute to have a look!"

In fact, Xia Duo knew that the importance of the research institute was no less than that of the Department of Conservation and the Department of Selected Records. For such an important place, whether it was the remnants of the empire or the Comanthor elves, the search priority must be extremely high.

How many valuable things can be left for him now?
However, in line with the idea of ​​"everyone is here", Xia Duo decided to go to the research institute to have a look. He bet that human beings have no conditions to search carefully, and that elves have neglected due to unfamiliarity.

……

The Imperial Research Institute is located in the north of Severton, facing the sea. Severton on the main plane is almost half of the old city.

Compared with the imperial departments that Xia Duo searched before, the research institute occupies the largest area, almost the sum of the areas occupied by those departments.

You know, before that included three magic schools.

This shows the status of the research institute in the Arcane Empire!
But no matter how lofty it was in the past, it is now just a ruin. Even because it has a higher proportion of magical buildings and facilities, the degree of dilapidation here is more serious than other areas.

But when Xia Duo actually came here, he stopped.

Without him, it is because there is a large area of ​​dead silence in the magic net in front of it, which almost covers half of the research institute area.

After thinking about it, Xia Duo did not enter the dead zone of the magic net after all. Although the dead zone itself did not pose any threat to him, it would be too bad if he encountered other people.

If you encounter an elf hunter, you may be able to fight for a few rounds with the swordsinger's martial arts that you haven't reviewed for a long time, and you will inevitably lose in the end; (ordinary elf mages can't cast spells in the dead zone)

And if he encountered an Arcanist, then he would have no room to resist. (Expanding the Austrian fire is a miniature magic net, which can cast spells)
This is not the way he wants to leave the projected plane.
