Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1491
Old Town, east side of Nether Palace.

Unlike the silver-white elf-style buildings in the area where Giles Tower and Nether Palace are located, the architectural tones here are mostly gold and blue.

This area is mainly the residence of some chambers of commerce, mage clubs, and the offices of mage tower organizations or small groups outside of Severton in Severton.

The headquarters of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce is located in the core area of ​​this "CBD". The original building was an elegant and beautiful elf manor, which was later remodeled to add some Naise local style.

It's just that in Xia Duo's view, it's either all or not at all. It's somewhat ridiculous to behave like this while trying to get rid of the influence of elves while still being unable to completely get rid of it.

For President Jenna's invitation tonight, Xia Duo can probably guess some reasons, and he just happened to want to use the other party's channel for something.

Just thinking about it, he soon arrived at the headquarters of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. He removed his disguise in front of the gate and restored his original appearance. The Chamber of Commerce Manager who had been waiting for a long time was surprised at first, and then immediately greeted him:

"Respected Lord Xia Duo, the president is waiting for you in the Winter Hall, please follow me!"

Xia Duo nodded. He had been here once before and knew that the headquarters of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce had four formal reception rooms in spring, summer, autumn and winter. The last time he came here was just an ordinary reception room, obviously the treatment was different.

During the march, Seide did not know when he received the news that he had taken over as the original steward, and personally took Xia Duo to the Winter Hall, and only quietly retreated outside the hall.

Xia Duo stepped into it, and Jenna stood up to greet her, "Lord Xia Duo, it's been a while since I saw you, so give me a big surprise!"

"It was just a fluke, President Jenna is the real talent!"

Xia Duo knew his own affairs. It took him at least ten years from the beginning of his contact with magic to now, but most of this time was covered by the projection plane.

And as far as he knew, almost none of the current grand arcanists was accomplished before the age of 40, and the President Jenna in front of him was called "a genius second only to a princess" by Iolum.

With an ordinary background, he became a great arcanist when he was less than 30 years old. Xia Duo was very envious when he saw it.

If the other party received magic enlightenment from an early age and received a more scientific modern education, he might be able to graduate from university when he was admitted to the junior class (Grand Arcanist).

It can only be said that this era is not worthy of a genius like Jenna.

Of course, like Jenna, there are other great arcanists. They have almost all grown up in a self-taught way. I don’t know how many detours they have taken during the period, and they may not be able to walk on the path they really want in the end. .

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Xia Duo's mind, and after the simple flattery, he went straight to the point, "Why did President Jenna ask me to come here this time?"

"Lord Xia Duo is getting impatient. Couldn't it be a gathering of friends?" Jenna asked with a smile.

While talking, he also teased the bright golden hair beside his ears. This scene made Xia Duo's heart beat faster, but when he thought that the other party's beautiful face was hiding the age to be his mother, he couldn't think of anything in an instant. forget about it.

cough--

"President Jenna, just tell me if you have anything to say, I have to go to the teacher's place soon!"

"Little guy who doesn't understand style, your old-fashioned appearance really resembles your teacher!"

After a little teasing, Jenna immediately recovered her composure, "Okay, I'm not kidding anymore, I'm asking you to tell me this time, there is indeed something I want to ask for your help!"

"President Jenna, please tell me?"

"I've heard about the incident not long ago. You must have a good relationship with Akoala's King Kelsek. I would like to ask you to be an intermediary to contact King Kelsek for me."

"Is that all?" Xia Duo frowned slightly, as if considering the pros and cons.

It stands to reason that Akola has already signed a mutual defense agreement with Netheril, and there is a supplementary agreement involving business later. It should be easier for Jenna to get through the Severton Council for things like contacting Akola Crown King!
After thinking about it for a while, Xia Duo probably came to the crux of the matter. If you go through official channels, everything will be business-like, and maybe Jenna's identity will be revealed.

And the next moment, Jenna gave an explanation, which was slightly different from Xia Duo's guess——

"Yes, that's the thing. Originally, I wanted to find the Seven Towers, but something I discovered not long ago made me change my mind. Horn also intends to deploy in the commercial field."

"Horn?" Xia Duo wondered, "The forces inside the Seven Towers are intricate, did Horn convince others so quickly?"

"I haven't found out the specific situation yet, but as far as I know, it should be decided by Horn in private." Jenna said solemnly.

"That's it!"

The more resolute the decision is in private, the more difficult it is to compromise. In fact, Xia Duo had expected this situation a long time ago.

The road to ascension to the gods is not unique, but at the same time, it can't help but change. Fields that are easy to implement or have great development potential may be targeted by multiple potential ascensionists at the same time.

Jenna chose the currency subdivision field in the commercial field. The promotion of Mingshui Chamber of Commerce's new coins is an important step in the ceremony. As for the more, only Jenna herself knows.

Although Jenna mentioned a long time ago that Ascension to the Gods was just her backup plan, but even if it was a backup plan, being targeted by others was nothing to be happy about.

It's just that there is no conflict between Xia Duo and Zilan Tower, and it is unlikely that there will be any conflict in the foreseeable future. Whether to confront Zilan Tower for Jenna, Xia Duo is still very hesitant.

Even if Jenna said just now that Horn's behavior only represents himself, even if the possibility of Jenna's words is not considered, it is difficult to say that Horn is in that position and really only represents himself.

At this moment, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little rejoicing. Fortunately, this time, Jenna was quite sincere, otherwise he would directly cheat him into the water, and he wouldn't know who to turn to for reasoning!
After thinking about it, Xia Duo asked a key question: "Have you talked with Horn? Is there any misunderstanding?"

Every word and deed of the great arcanist involves all aspects, just like the communication between countries, if they do not communicate frequently, it is very likely that some actions will cause misjudgments.

For example, if a country dispatches troops to suppress a border rebellion, if the neighboring country is not notified in advance, the neighboring country or another country related to the neighboring country's interests may make a misjudgment, thinking that a war is going to happen against the neighboring country, and start the war first.

Regarding Xia Duo's question, Jenna shook her head helplessly, "How could I take the initiative to find him when such a thing happened! Shouldn't he take the initiative to inform me before taking any action? Or Doesn't the master of the majestic Seven Towers know the inside story of the Ascension Ceremony?"
