Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1391 Asking for Details Northern Accent
After a brief greeting with the four of them, Xia Duo went straight to the point, "You must have guessed it, there is no refresher class, but if your answers satisfy me, the refresher class is not a problem."

"Xia Duo, what do you want to ask?"

"President, is it because of that elf?"

"We thought about it here and found one thing in common among the four of us, that is, we just came back from Savile Town, and we all had contact with that elf."

"..."

A few people guessed what Xia Duo wanted to ask in a few words. Xia Duo nodded and admitted, "It's because of that elf. Tell me about the process of meeting her. Colin will start with you!"

"it is good."

Colin responded, but did not speak directly, but pondered for a moment, as if recalling the scene at that time, and then began to tell the story from the beginning:
"I went to Savile Town only after accepting the task of going to the military camp for training. After completing the task, I went to my house to take a look. There was no delay, and I immediately prepared to return to the Tower of Time.

"But when I passed the central square, I met that elf. She was the one who greeted me. After all, she was an elf. I might have been a little confused at the time. Whatever the other party asked, I just said what I said.

"She mainly asked two questions, one was about the Savile Territory, and the other was about the Tower of Time, but they were all easy-to-find questions, and I didn't take them seriously at the time.

"I didn't realize there might be something wrong with my elf until I returned to the Tower of Time and was told to attend a refresher class, but no one came to contact us in this room."

After Colin finished speaking, he had a look of remorse on his face. Seeing this, Xia Duo motioned for the other three to start. Among them, a new mage named "Jess" took the lead:

"My situation is somewhat similar to that of Colin. I also met that elf in the central square, who claimed to be a friend of the Orepus patriarch of the Silver Leaf family. I believed her, but I didn't fully believe her.

"She also asked questions about the Savile Territory and the Tower of Time, because they were all information that could be easily obtained, so I answered them all.

"However, when the other party asked about the internal system of the Tower of Time, I didn't mention the current system, but used the system before the Tower of Time to perfunctory the past."

Speaking of this, Jess showed an expression that I am very smart, but thinking that other people may not necessarily be like him, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, and asked Xia Duo a question before others spoke about their experiences :
"President, who is that elf? Does she have any problems?"

"She is one of my partners. There are problems, of course, but it is still in the guessing stage, so you don't need to have any psychological burden."

"I was scared to death, I thought I was someone else's spy unintentionally!" Jess patted his chest and said with a look of fear.

Regarding this, Xia Duo was noncommittal. He knew that with the strength of that Tove investigator, he could obtain enough information without any direct contact with Jess and others.

The reason why he behaved so exaggeratedly may also have the meaning of reminding him.

But what should be asked, you still have to keep asking, maybe you can find some details that have been overlooked by the other party!

……

Next, the other two also told the whole story of their meeting with Tove. They were also stopped by Tove in the central square of Savile Town just like Colin and Jess.

More precisely, in the northwest corner of the central square.

It is the only place to go to the former site of the Tower of Time. The small semi-permanent portal connecting the Tower of Time to Savile Town is opened next to the former site of the Tower of Time.

"By the way, Jess, you should have just come into contact with Elven language not long ago, how did that elf communicate with you, did it use psychic spells or Netherese?"

"It's Nether! And it seems to have a strong northern accent!"

Jess seemed to have thought of something, and deliberately imitated Tove's accent. Xia Duo has been in Severton recently, and he is no stranger to Severton's accent.

In particular, certain tones that were deliberately changed to fit Elvish vocabulary were particularly obvious to Xia Duo, an expert in Elvish language.

At this moment, he even had an off-topic guess—was the elf biased the change in Severton's accent?
Coupled with some people's deliberate imitation, it quickly became popular.

That is to say, the southern border seems to be closer to the elf kingdom, but in fact there are fewer opportunities to contact elves. That is, the Silver Leaf family moved to Savile Town in the past two years, which made the elves here less rare.

That Tove not only took the initiative to talk to humans, but also spoke Nether, which really broke Xia Duo's consistent impression of elves.

Speaking of which, Xia Duo seems to have never heard any elf speak Nether language!

Even Orepus of the Silver Leaf family spoke Elven language when communicating with him. It's not that Orepus can't speak Nether, but Xia Duo never thought that the other party could speak Nether language.

This is like in Xia Duo’s hometown, when meeting a foreigner, he would subconsciously communicate with him in a foreign language, as if subconsciously determined that the other party could not speak Chinese.

That "can't", is it "can not" or "don''t want to"?

Is this arrogance?Or low self-esteem?
As thoughts flowed, Xia Duo was a little reluctant to face this problem, but right now elves are indeed better than humans in many ways, and even the elvish language itself is obviously better than Nether, so it doesn't matter if you talk about it.

As the saying goes, "Learn skills from barbarians to control barbarians", when they grow stronger in the future, it will be the elves' turn to speak human language on their own initiative.

Humans are obviously not at that level now, so Tove's move seems particularly suspicious.

Thinking in this way, Xia Duo asked some key questions one after another, and Colin, Jess and others answered them one by one. Finally, Xia Duo proposed to reproduce the scene at that time.

"Xia Duo, what are you going to do? How do we need to cooperate?"

"It's very simple, you just need to keep recalling the scene of contact with that elf while I was casting the spell."

What Xia Duo said is simple, but it is actually not easy. Psychic spells are easily interfered by subjective will, especially those who have some understanding of psychic spells can make targeted misleading.

Of course, he could also go to the central square of Savile Town to retrace the past history of that area, but Tove is a powerful mage after all, so he might retrace his loneliness in the end.

In addition, there is another point that it is possible to meet Tove in the central square.

Even if you can't meet them, the other party may still pay attention to this place, otherwise, how could it be possible for the members of the Tower of Time to pass by there and be found.

One can be considered a coincidence, and everyone is like that, then it is not a coincidence.

In any case, let’s look at the memories of Colin and others first, which can serve as a reference.
