Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1388
At this moment, Xia Duo was holding such a box containing 10,000+ arcane energy crystals in his hand, as if he was holding 10,000+ standard 10-level spells for measurement.

Even the unperfected Misser core can be so productive, so what kind of power should all the perfected Misser cores have!

At this moment, Xia Duo can't wait to start setting up the production workshop immediately and let Iolum experiment to his heart's content, but right now, there are still some small matters that he needs to deal with first——

Iolum has decided to use his plan, and handed over the entire laboratory to him, but before that, he needs to dismantle a small part of the Austrian fire device that has been built in the laboratory, so as to Subsequent laboratory renovations made room.

Before leaving Iolum's study, Xia Duo then asked, "How is the current situation in the Northland?"

"After the establishment of the Northern Alliance, the countries have lived in peace for the time being, but the situation underground is not very good. The news I have received so far is that the drow's demon army has taken shape and is very powerful! It is far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Danzuo can only rely on various weapons of war, passive defense, and the few active attacks are not very effective, if there is no assistance from the alliance countries, Danzuo may have perished by now."

"Is it that bad?"

Xia Duo's heart tightened, he stopped, and continued to ask: "Didn't the alliance discuss opening a second battlefield in Evereska last time? Is there any news now?"

"The second battlefield has been opened, but all kinds of war supplies and equipment are currently in short supply, and they need to be supplied to Danzo first. Amarinda's second battlefield is mainly harassment for the time being, and the battle situation is still stable."

After finishing speaking, Iolum sighed, pointed to the box in Xia Duo's hand, and said, "I'm so anxious to complete the Austrian fire device now, the more important reason is that I want to be in the The drow gain a decisive force before bursting out of the surface."

"Teacher is so pessimistic? Do you think Dan Zuo can't hold on?"

"It's not a question of whether Danzo can't stand it, but a question of when Drow wants to break out of the surface. Do you still remember the ley line detector you sent to Severton? Drow sent scouts to find weak points in the ley line , If you say they didn’t find anything, would you believe it?”

"I don't believe it." Xia Duo shook his head.

If he can find a drow assassin in the southern border, there will definitely be more assassins in other places. He has heard that the Arcane Federation has also captured several drows.

Presumably Iolum knew more details, maybe even the weak point of the ley lines near Severton!
"That's it. After mastering the weak points of the earth's veins, they can open up a passage to the surface at any time. It is only a matter of time before they rush out of the surface. The current Netheril will definitely not be able to resist the drow's demon army. Once the drow appears In the territory of Nether, it will be an unprecedented terrorist disaster."

Iolum sighed again. In the past, he had been entangled with the orc tribes in the territory of Nether for nearly a hundred years. In the end, he relied on the high mobility of the mage to continuously bleed those large tribes, and only then did he win the final victory.

But he would rather fight another hundred years with the orcs than see drow in Nether.

It's not a question of fear, but war will inevitably interrupt Netheril's development momentum in the rising stage. If Comanthor next to it makes a little bit worse, it is not impossible to subjugate the country.

……

After leaving Iolum's study, Xia Duo felt a little heavy. It seemed that the Northern Alliance was established and all the countries supported Danzo, but in fact the flames of war could reach his side at any time.

Maybe at some point, Zall doesn't want to kill Danzo anymore, and it would be too troublesome to open underground passages everywhere.

Xia Duo remembered that he had issued a mission in the Tower of Time before, asking the members of the Tower of Time to take his self-made leyline detector to check the geological conditions near Daxia Territory and Savile Territory.

When a weak point in the leylines is detected, the leyline detector will send out an alarm.

Up to now, there is no news from the Tower of Time Mission Management Office. It seems that this is already the best news!
"Drow, drow!"

For a long time, Xia Duo has regarded the elves as future competitors, even enemies, but he has somewhat ignored the drow who is already in front of him.

But it's not too late to wake up now. Although he won't go to the Underdark to fight the drow himself, it is very necessary to provide some assistance in the rear as he can.

For example [Slaying Demon Arrow], [Slaying Demon Talisman]!
Xia Duo just heard from Iolum that [Magic Slaughter Talisman] is the most indispensable consumable in the underground war. Without [Magic Slaughter Talisman], Danzo's defense will collapse immediately.

Demons are born with a terrifying aura that shocks people's will. If you want to face the devil directly, you must counteract that terrifying aura.
As for the demon-slaying arrows, in the current underground war, they are mainly used to assassinate the drow's demon summoner. Once the summoner dies, the demons under his command will not be restrained, and they will almost certainly fight wildly with other demons or drow.

It can be said that no matter how many demons are killed on the frontal battlefield, as long as the summoner does not die, they can continue to be summoned later, killing endlessly.

Only by killing the Summoner can it be considered as a real reduction in Drow's war potential.

Therefore, [Devil-slaying Arrow] can be regarded as a just-needed item after [Devil-slaying Talisman].

……

Back in the laboratory, Xia Duo was not in a hurry to dismantle the arcane fire device, but first contacted Niya to inquire about the production status of the production line of the [Magic Slayer Talisman] production line of the Department of Magical Technology.

"It's all done according to your previous arrangement. What's the matter? Why do you ask this suddenly?"

"I got news from here that the war situation in the Underdark Region may not be very good. Demon-slaying amulets are just needed for war. I think it is necessary to open another production line."

In addition to selling the demon-slaying amulet produced to Lord Haran or others, some of the produced demon-slaying amulets can also be kept for personal use. In case the drow hit the surface one day, this is a proper strategic reserve.

Of course, now also.

For Xia Duo's proposal, Niya naturally would not refuse, but she also raised a very critical question: "The Tower of Time only has us a few high-level mages. If we open another production line for demon-slaying amulets, we will not So much private time!"

The demon-slaying talisman comes with a 5-level spell. Even if the process is split, a high-level mage must link the magic net with the elements involving the fifth layer of the magic net.

At present, the only people who can do this kind of work in the Tower of Time are Xia Duo, Niya, Eberke and De Parker. Xia Duo is now in Severton, Niya wants to study communication locks, and Eberke wants to study magic. Transformation, only De Parker has slightly more time.

But you can't always catch someone else to squeeze the wool, if you delay the other party's advanced arcanist, it will be somewhat uneconomical.

Xia Duo realized that the Tower of Time does not lack the lowest-level apprentices, nor does it lack the great arcanists who carry the top beam, but the most middle and most backbone high-level mages!
The number of high-level mages is insufficient, and there are too many projects that cannot be launched. If you wait until the apprentices are promoted, you will have to wait again.

"Perhaps we can gather some wild high-ranking mages in Severton?"
