Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1395
Of course, this may also be because Tove is in the elf's usual arrogant posture and doesn't want to show off in front of a human being, but her previous ease and even enthusiasm are somewhat contradictory to this.

Xia Duo wanted to ask, but Tove talked about him, and even took out a bottle of wine and put it on the table in the reception room, and continued to change the subject:

"At the beginning of the month, all the high-end spices provided by Lord Collins have been sold. Most customers have responded that the quality of the spices is very positive, and they will continue to buy them. Let's celebrate!"

"..."

Xia Duo was speechless for a moment. It was originally a tense questioning scene, but under the intentional connivance of both parties, it turned into a celebration banquet!

"Ms. Tove, Lord Collins is not here, so let's postpone the celebration!"

It's just that Xia Duo's refusal didn't work. Tove skillfully poured out two glasses of orange-yellow fruit wine, raised the glass and handed it to Xia Duo.

Then the scene in the reception room changed drastically. The original simple reception room suddenly turned into a sunny outdoor. Under the shade of a tree, a slender female elf was serving wine to Xia Duo at a banquet surrounded by guests.

Listening to the looming Anstasa ditty in his ears, Xia Duo was far less calm than the expression on his face. Watching Tove's spells from a close distance, the other's spells can almost be called "speaking the law", " Moisturize things silently".

Although it is just a mirage that can only blind the vision, there are many elements of the spell, and there is no way for ordinary mages to cast it so easily and quickly.

It is conceivable that once the opponent uses an attack method, it will definitely be like a thunderbolt.

Even now, if Tove suddenly admits that he is a high mage, Xia Duo will not have too much doubt, but he is even more suspicious of the authenticity of Tove's identity.

Why did such an elf mage with a strong background and a strong background come to him?Is it just because of those high-grade spices?
Or is it to add some obstacles to the crowned king of Cormanthor?
"Perhaps what Tove said about the Crown Prince's close minister, Jelinis, is simply a cover, and she or a high-ranking mage behind her is eyeing her!"

For a while, Xia Duo panicked. It is definitely not a good thing to be targeted by the elves. At this stage, his farming has not achieved any key results, and it is easy to be taken over by the elves.

Although this possibility is not high, he cannot help but pay attention to its existence.

As for his own safety, Xia Duo is not worried. The elf who has the ability to kill him alone in his own territory may not have been born yet!
He took the wine glass that Tove handed over, still maintaining a disguised, kind smile with a slight distance on his face.

"Lord Xia Duo, for our further cooperation in the future, please drink this cup to the full!"

"it is good!"

However, before drinking, Xia Duo cast a very special elven spell on the wine glass - "toast ceremony". This spell nominally stimulates the aroma of the wine, and it does have this effect.

But in essence, the original source of this spell was—the etiquette spell of detecting whether the wine was poisoned or cast a spell when the upper family of the ancient elf kingdom feasted.

Xia Duo didn't really think that Tove would attack him under the leadership of Savile, but he felt that Tove's previous spell was more like a demonstration, so he naturally wanted to retaliate!
Whether it's Jerynis, a close vassal of Cormanthor's crowned king, or Tove himself, anyway, Xia Duo is now sure that he is being targeted by the elves.

It is almost impossible to keep a low profile like before, so let the other party take a good look!

To attract the other party's attention to himself, not the territory, Xia Duo feels that the territory needs to be kept secret more than himself.

In his opinion, the only thing that can be regarded as a secret is his identity as a visitor from another world, but this secret has actually been perfectly explained long ago, that is—an Oriental!

The last time we met, Tove mentioned that there are tens of thousands of orientals living in Comanthor, and some orientals are still engaged in jobs that the elves respect.

As for bloodline or portable space.

There are also various bloodline warlocks in this world, and even Calinshan among the four southern countries is famous for their bloodlines, and there are demiplanes similar to them in the portable space.

Even the various ideas that Xia Duo brought from his hometown are not so strange, there are enough various ideas in any real world.

It's just that Xia Duo can provide a path choice that has been verified by the modern civilization of the material universe, instead of blindly choosing from countless ideas and trying luck.

As for the adaptability of the ideas he chose in different universes, this is not a problem, the Dao is consistent.

As long as people are still people, and as long as the world can still be recognized, then the scientific concept of development and methodology can always keep pace with the times and change with the world.

Xia Duo wasn't sure whether the elves could see the crisis from his own territory, but he had to make such preparations, so he would rather expose himself actively.

Sure enough, after he performed the "toast ceremony", Tove's eyes changed when he saw him, and he became very surprised.

However, Xia Duo looked as usual, he just replaced the blunt "whiteboard" elf language with a more personal style of "slang", and said to him:

"Ms. Tove, drink holy!"

After speaking, Xia Duo drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

The wine has been drinking for a long time, but it is a pity that the people drinking are not good people. Xia Duo sighed in his heart. After putting down the wine glass, he didn't plan to pick it up again. Instead, he dispelled the illusion around him and restored the living room to its previous humble appearance.

The display of the "Toast Ceremony" and the elf language that is not inferior to the elves are all on the surface that I have a deep understanding of the elf society. It's fine when I get the meaning. Xia Duo didn't continue to show it, so I asked Tove to guess and investigate slowly. go!
"Ms. Tove, I still have something to do at the Tower of Time, so I won't accompany you. I will go to Severton after Midsummer Festival. If you need it, you can come to Severton to find me."

"Lord Xiaduo, please go ahead. I will report to the family about the cooperative assassination of Jerinis you mentioned. The interest in this trip is exhausted, and it is time for me to leave."

Seemingly in a hurry, Tove teleported away without even leaving the reception room. This kind of behavior that is particularly rude in elf society, can it be considered rude just because the target is a human being?
Looking at the position where the other party was standing just now, Xia Duo shook his head, it seemed that he really exceeded the other party's expectations.

"That's fine. I'll go to Severton as soon as Midsummer's Day is over, and I'll bring the eyes of the elves to Severton too. But this Netherian territory is really a sieve. The elves come and go as they want!"

For a while, Xia Duo missed the border enchantment of the projection plane Arcane Empire. Although this thing led to the destruction of the empire, the significance of its existence cannot be denied.

The key is to stick to the road of self-development of technology!
