Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1276 It is very important to mix into the research institute team

"of course can."

Regarding Xia Duo's method of wanting to know the mission first, Elise did not deliberately make things difficult, but readily agreed:

"This mission is related to the underground passage, and the information about the underground passage is discovered and reported by you, so there is nothing wrong with telling it in advance!

"The higher-ups are going to send a group of people to the Underdark Region to investigate the environment there to see if ordinary people can survive and reproduce normally. If it is suitable, the higher-ups may establish a survival base in the Underdark Region.

"In addition, this group of people also needs to inspect drow society and judge its reliability as an ally. This task will be led by the Sith Arcanist who visited the Underdark not long ago.

"If you choose this option, when you come back from the mission, you will work in the Imperial Supervision Department!"

"Supervision Department?" Xia Duo asked in confusion.

In McCard's character design, he doesn't know the (current) Supervisory Division exists. His whole world is the Revenge Judgment Division, and of course there is the empty but real concept of "Empire".

"Yes, Inspectorate."

Elise tapped her knuckles on the table twice, as if to remind Xia Duo that what she was going to say next would be a subversive news:

"When the empire was shattered, the Inspection Department was almost wiped out, but with the support of a group of great arcanists, a brand new Inspection Department was quickly established.

"You didn't have enough authority before, but what I can tell you now is that His Excellency Sith is a member of the Supervision Department. If you choose the second reward, you will serve under him if there is no accident in the future."

After listening to Elise's explanation, Xia Duo was thoughtful. If he is really Mecad, the Supervisor should be a good choice.

At least for the trip to the Underdark Region, there is a great arcanist accompanying him, and under his personal guidance, it may not be impossible to successfully advance to the level of an arcanist during the mission.

But for Xia Duo, the Supervision Division is only slightly better than staying in the field department of the Revenge Judgment Division, and it is even better to work at the headquarters of the Judgment Division!
There must be resurrection-related facilities or mechanisms at the headquarters of the Judgment Division. If you contact them frequently, you can find something.

And the Supervision Department may have to face internal supervision all the time, which is too inconvenient for a caring person like Xia Duo.

"Are there any other reward options?"

"There is another one, which is similar to the second one. It is also a resurrection point + mysterious fire scroll, and an additional task, but I am not optimistic about your choice of this."

Elise looked at Xia Duo, with a look of pity and regret in her eyes.

Seeing this, Xia Duo probably guessed that it was either a bad way of development, or the task was difficult, and it was almost impossible for Mecad to complete, but he was not the real Mecad, so he couldn't even tell what the mission was. Give up without asking.

"What mission is it? Lady Elise, can you tell me?"

"Of course you can, but you have to be mentally prepared."

"I'm ready!"

"The task requires you to improve the current magic net background fluctuation positioning technology. As long as you choose this third reward, you can join the research institute regardless of whether you can complete the task. The only difference is whether you are a full-time researcher or a marginal person. But I need to remind Yours is that once you join the academy, you will lose most of your freedom before you become a grand arcanist."

This is good!
Xia Duo almost shouted, magic technology is the primary productive force, and Mecader must not have such awareness. In his opinion, killing more elves is more conducive to the reappearance of the empire.

But in Xia Duo's view, killing more elves is not as important as a key technological breakthrough. As for the so-called loss of freedom, is it considered freedom now?

No, there is still Elise in charge!

Without Elise, McCard couldn't even find a base anywhere outside. He might be able to let himself go freely outside, but far away from the same kind, how much value can there be left for an individual existence?

What's more, there are elves outside who are constantly searching, and they might just hang up if they encounter it one day.

As for the difference between the full-time researcher and the fringe little people that Elise said, Xia Duo didn't think that the higher-ups would use an extremely difficult problem to embarrass an ordinary high-level mage.

According to Xia Duo's previous experience in the Arcane Empire, if there is no accident, this task is more just to let "Mecad" show its research ability, or even its potential, and the result is not important at all.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo immediately made a decision: "My lord, I am willing to try the third one!"

"Try it? Once you try it, you can't regret it! Have you thought it through?"

"Think clearly!"

Xia Duo's face was serious, and he said righteously: "I have been taught since I was a child to be always prepared for the great revival of the empire. Instead of killing a few insignificant elves outside, it is better to join the research institute and work hard for everyone's progress! "

"Huh? To have such an idea, I suddenly believe you a little bit."

After a moment of silence, Elise got up from behind the desk and walked to Xia Duo, "Let me ask you one last time, are you sure you want to choose to enter the research institute?"

"yes, I'm sure!"

"Okay, come with me!"

With that said, Elise walked towards the door, and Xia Duo hurriedly followed behind.

……

"McCard, before sending you to the research institute, I still have something to say to you!"

"Sir, please speak!"

"The real research institute may be different from what you understand. The Revenge Trial Division has no affiliation with the Research Institute. The Research Institute is higher than the Trial Division to a certain extent. If it is possible in the future, under the same conditions, I hope you Can lean more towards the Inquisitor.”

"Which area are you referring to, my lord?"

"every aspect!"

Elise's words made Xia Duo inevitably have some associations. If the status of the current research institute is as high as Elise said, maybe he can easily find resurrection spells there.

Without any hesitation, Xia Duo immediately agreed to Elise's request. Anyway, it was just an informal verbal promise, so what does it matter if you promise more!

He didn't see any disadvantages in this matter, and the research institute was not necessarily an ivory tower. "Mecad" was born in the Inquisition Division, so it was only natural that he would form a group with the Inquisition Division.

In case the research needs to use some special resources and technologies that the research institute does not have, or cannot allocate itself, the Judgment Division will be a good source.

Xia Duo has no reason to reject Elise, let alone, he still relies on Elise to send him to the research institute!
Even if you don't want to agree, there's no need to contradict the other party at this juncture!

……

Soon, the transfer is complete.

The familiar scene in front of him made Xia Duo feel so dangerous!

Elise sent him to the survival base of the Judgment Division of Vengeance, and there is also a research institute here. Before, "Mecade" only thought that this research institute belonged to the Division of Judgment.

But in fact, the research institute here is just a branch of the real research institute [Revenge Judgment Division]!
It is conceivable that most of the people in this institute must be from the judicial department. If Xia Duo had rejected Elise in the branch base just now, it would definitely be difficult to come here.

Of course, Elise's request is not wrong, but she is betting on the convenience of "Mecad" after entering the real research institute.

"Fortunately, I didn't make a mistake, otherwise the resurrection spell would be difficult!"
