Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1346

Sevington, Azure Manor.

Xia Duo took out boxes of magical items such as demon-slaying amulets, warning amulets, and communication instruments brought from the Tower of Time from the portable space, handed them to Aiwa, and explained:
"When Evans comes over, go with him to meet and hand over those adventurers. If no one asks, don't rush to name the Tower of Time for the time being, and just use the name of Azure Manor."

"Yes."

"If there is anything you don't understand, just ask Evans. He is a member of the Seven Towers, and he can be regarded as one of his own. It is best to ask and ask casually."

"Ah."

Although Aiwa seldom spoke, Xia Duo was always at ease with him, but out of habit, he still said a few more words.

……

Near noon, Xia Duo came to Gilles Tower after having lunch early in the manor, and there were already people waiting for him here.

Seeing Belleira waiting at the door, Xia Duo couldn't help being a little surprised. He really didn't expect this person to be waiting for him here, but he still took the initiative to say hello:
"Good afternoon, Belleira, long time no see!"

Xia Duo's posture and tone were relatively relaxed, but Belleira was a little restrained. She first saluted sternly, and then responded:

"Good afternoon, respected Lord Xiaduo!"

"You're welcome, just call me Xia Duo, I haven't congratulated you on your successful advancement yet!"

Xia Duo noticed that on the robe Belleira was wearing at the moment, there was a small circle embroidered with gold thread outside the emblem of Gilles Tower. Generally speaking, this meant that Belleira had just obtained an internal authority promotion.

There is a sense of celebration in it, and it doesn’t necessarily refer to advancing to become an arcanist, but Belleira failed to advance several times before, and now she suddenly got an internal authority promotion. That is not a success in advancing, what else could it be? !

When Xia Duo said this, Belleira did not hide it, but said with some shame: "I succeeded in advancing at home. This fact is not worth celebrating."

That's it!

Xia Duo suddenly understood that there are so many people in Gilles Tower, and the resources of the advanced laboratory are limited. There are various conditions for using it. Belleira failed to advance several times, and he probably doesn’t want to continue to spend it here. .

Sure enough, the rich second generation will always have one more way home than ordinary people!

……

"Go ahead!"

Xia Duo beckoned Belera to go in and wait together, and started to talk about other people's news along the way, "Do you know who else will go to Evereska together?"

"Each of the seven towers has a quota. I only know that Anglin from the Gustav Tower and Rodit from the Kilan Tower are among them. As for the others, I don't know."

"Will the great arcanists from the Seven Towers go there together this time?" Xia Duo asked again.

"I do know this. Only Your Excellency Badigal represented the Seven Towers, the Severton Council, and Netheril went to Evereska to complete the final signing ceremony, and no one else went there."

Shaduo nodded silently, he hadn't been exposed yet, but adding Iolum, Netheril actually only passed two great arcanists.

You can't be so cautious, right?

For such a major event related to the structure of the Northland, it would not be abrupt to go more. Anyway, there are always spares in the Seven Towers, but the great arcanists outside the Seven Towers, I don’t know how many people will go to watch the ceremony.

Until the two of them came to a teleportation hall with a towering dome, Xia Duo didn't understand why the rest of the Seven Towers Arcanists didn't attend such an important occasion.

But Xia Duo was sure that they were not afraid of death, maybe they were busy with other important matters?What is it?
……

"Lord Xia Duo, long time no see."

As soon as he entered the teleportation hall, another acquaintance walked up to him, Rodite Collins, Thunder Mage, senior arcanist, and son of Collins Lord Mayne Collins.

After approaching, Rodit whispered respectfully again: "Greetings on behalf of my father!"

Xia Duo nodded. In fact, his personal relationship with Rodite changed after he and Lord Collins cooperated in the Comanthor spice smuggling business.

Xia Duo himself was the same as usual, but Rodit, who had been in awe of Xia Duo before, was even more in awe of Xia Duo now.

Perhaps this is the real social relationship of most senior arcanists.

And if Rodit knew the identity of Shador Arcanist again, perhaps his attitude would be different from now.

For this, Xia Duo was quite emotional, but he didn't like this kind of relationship from the bottom of his heart, but even on the earth, where everyone is theoretically equal, it is still inevitable to look up to or look up to each other because of different identities. Look down on others.

Perhaps this is the reality, but Xia Duo is not willing to succumb to this reality. Others will look at me higher because of my status, and I will also be inferior in the eyes of people with higher status.

"Don't do to others what you don't want done to you", this is the simplest interpersonal relationship.

Xia Duo didn't think that he could become the eternal superior, so from the very beginning, he needed to build a civilization that made everyone as equal as possible.

From a utilitarian point of view, this will make him not have to worry too much about the oppression from the stronger when he encounters a trough.

Of course, from the perspective of civilization, a more moderate order is also more conducive to the full development of all individuals within the civilization.

……

The more power and strength he possesses, the more Xia Duo realizes the importance of responsibility. This is not the so-called chivalrous man's "greater ability comes greater responsibility", but comes from the sages in his hometown who "cultivate the body, govern the family, govern the country and the world". inheritance of belief.

This is also the sense of ownership he grew up in the new era in his hometown!

Of course, speaking a little more narrowly - "I am the country" is also fine, Xia Duo has not yet evolved to the point of completely eliminating selfish desires!
……

Looking at Rodite who is respectful every bit, Belleira who wants to show intimacy but shows restraint, and the other two members of the Seven Towers who have arrived, they look a little in awe.

Xia Duo secretly sighed in his heart, but just looked to the south, his eyes seemed to see the growing Daxia collar through the void, and at this moment, his mind became more determined.

……

After a while, Anglin arrived. As a student of Badigal, he made every effort to get to know each other who were standing on both sides of the hall.

According to this, Xia Duo also knew the identities of another group of people. Except for the Morion Tower Arcanist Gino, who had previously met because of the snowmelt competition, Xia Duo had never met the other three before.

Even exaggerated, this may be the first time they met.

It's just that Xia Duo's name, and even the identity of Iolum's student, have already spread to the opponent's circle.

Among the seven people present, except for Anglin who could face Xia Duo with a normal posture, the others were more or less awkward.

So Xia Duo only talked with Anglin, and from the other party, Xia Duo also knew more details about this trip!
