Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1351 Challenge of the Cloud Top Illusionary Spirits
"5000 years ago, the remnants of the nations gathered here and swore to be brothers, so Evereska was born.

"Now, a more inclusive and stronger Northland Alliance is about to be born here. I am sincerely honored to be a member of the Evereska Council of Elders.

"Here, on behalf of all members of the Evereska Council of Elders, I would like to pay tribute to you all, and may the Northland Alliance continue to prosper."

As he said that, the elder raised the wine glass in his hand again, and said to everyone present: "All kings, leaders, and supreme mages, please enjoy tonight's feast to the fullest!"

……

After the host finished his speech, the dinner officially began. Of course, it can also be said to be over to a certain extent. Xia Duo glanced around, and suddenly bursts of mist floated in the already spacious Yunguan Palace.

And there is a trend of getting denser and denser. After a while, the surrounding scenes are gradually shrouded in clouds and fog, but the fog comes and goes faster.

Almost at the same time as it completely covered the surrounding scene, it became light and transparent. Xia Duo looked again, at this moment, he seemed to be on a cloud, as if he could bring up bursts of cloud with a wave of his hand.

It's not just him, but everyone else is also like this. The Yunguan Palace, which was originally indoors, seems to have come to the top of the cloud all of a sudden.

Occasionally, there is a wind blowing, and the clouds and clouds are passing through the crowd, just like the scene of the heavenly palace.

Xia Duo stretched out his hand to fish out the sea of ​​clouds that had covered more than a foot above the ground beside him. It seemed to be mist and nothingness, and the touch was very wonderful.

"Is this the Yunguan Palace?"

In addition to the mysteriousness of the scene, the delivery of food and drinks is also very ingenious. A vine with green leaves hangs from the void next to almost every guest's seat. Various fruits, meat, and even wine bottles and tableware grow. on top.

You can take whatever you want to eat. If you don't like it, you can also summon new vines and replace it with new food.

Even in the projection plane, Xia Duo has never experienced such a dinner party. Of course, he has experienced quite a few similar ones.

Generally, an elf dinner is mainly divided into two parts, one part is the atmosphere of the banquet, and the other part is the drinks and food during the banquet.

The dinner prepared by the Council of Elders of Evereska for the kings, leaders, supreme mages, and even the entourage is at the forefront of all the elf dinners Xia Duo has seen in terms of atmosphere.

But the drinks and food provided are relatively average.

Although it is not enough to meet the "state banquet" grade, but at least it does not match the atmosphere of the banquet.

"Almost music!"

Thinking like this, Xia Duo suddenly heard bursts of plucking strings from nothing, as if coming from the depths of the sea of ​​clouds, ethereal and distant.

In addition to the performance of several musical instruments, Xia Duo seemed to have heard an elf female voice singing, the singing voice was melodious but still majestic, and it penetrated the hearts of the people.

If one could keep listening to this kind of music until the end of the banquet, then the banquet would not seem so unbearable.

It's a pity that Xia Duo wanted to be calm, but some people refused to give him a chance. Just as he was listening to the ditty and drinking a little wine and waiting for the banquet to end, a cloud came with a noisy voice to the side of everyone in Naise .

"Your Excellency Badigal, regarding the details of tomorrow's ceremony, Crown Prince would like to confirm with you again."

The person who came was the high mage Suveris, who followed the crowned king of Cormanthor this time. Badigal was no stranger to him. After a few words with Iolum, Badigal readily agreed. down.

Afterwards, the clouds around the two sides were still surging. From a visual point of view, the distance between the two sides seemed to be much closer. Among them, Badigal even entered the range of the other side's clouds, and his figure became a little blurred.

But Xia Duo knew that Badigal's position had never changed, but the cloud illusion still seemed to have the effect of space folding and moving.

After Badigal, Ye'erlan also sent someone to invite Iolum away, but at this moment, a golden elf mage with disheveled hair and sharp eyes suddenly appeared in front of Xia Duo and the others.

First, he wandered around the crowd several times, as if examining and selecting, and finally, as if he had determined the target, he thrust a sword in front of Xia Duo, and said loudly:

"I'm going to challenge you!"

As his voice came out, the surrounding clouds and clouds quickly dispersed, revealing an open space of about 10*10 between him and Xia Duo.

The ground is of course the wooden ground of the Yunguan Palace itself, and around this open space, the clouds are rising, and the kings and leaders of the northern lands are still sitting on the seats of the clouds, looking down on everything condescendingly.

Xia Duo had already anticipated the fun activities that might occur at the elf banquet, but he didn't expect that someone would come to the door so soon.

Generally, more formal activities such as swordsmanship duels and spell duels will start in the middle of the banquet. In the early stage, drinking, chatting, and even singing and dancing are all fine.

It's just that on this occasion, as long as someone challenges, no matter whether he can win or not, Xia Duo will not be able to refuse, unless he has an identity not inferior to the kings and leaders.

A mere challenge is not enough to make Xia Duo reveal his strength. In fact, even if he is willing to reveal his strength, the challenger may become a high-level mage.

It's not as good as it is now, and the little guy can get rid of it at will.

Xia Duo got up and came to the opponent's sword, and also asked loudly: "What do you want to challenge?"

"I know that what you humans are most proud of is your magic. I want to have a spell duel with you! Elf magic vs Nether magic, do you agree?"

Hearing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but want to laugh. He carefully looked at the other party's face, and reconfirmed that the other party was an adult, and then seriously considered the other party's purpose.

Netheril gave up elven magic. Of course Yeerlan was the most upset about it, but would other elven kingdoms have no objections?
This Yeerlan mage keeps saying "Elf magic vs. Nether magic", how can Xia Duo win?How to lose?
You can't win at all, and you can't lose.

Winning, he himself is happy, but under the instigation of Yeerlan, the elf kingdoms will definitely be dissatisfied, especially Ilfaran, who is still an ally now, may reconsider the long-term relationship between the two countries.

Losing, needless to say, not only made me unhappy, but also reduced Netheril's evaluation in the northern kingdoms. Even if others didn't say it, they would definitely think that human magic is not as good as elves.

This is not because Xia Duo thinks too much, but it is very likely to happen in reality, because his current status is not only the lord of Nether, a senior arcanist, but also a student of Iolum.

Being able to appear here is very self-explanatory.

Even Belleira, the most inconspicuous of the people who came here this time, is also the first heir to Lord Shiboden, and she is an arcanist herself.

Arcanist means that Nether magic has come into the room. If the same level is not lower than elves, wouldn't Nether magic be inferior to elves.
