Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1653 Negotiating conditions for the trip to Kiran Tower

Soon, the time came two days later.

This morning, Xia Duo took out the invitation letter brought by Aldrin early in the morning. Following the activation of the spell, a portal with strong magical aura appeared in the garden of Azure Manor.

After confirming that the opposite side of the portal was indeed the Zilan Tower, Xia Duo briefly explained to Aiwa and walked in calmly.

And on the other side, Zilean Tower.

The moment Xia Duo activated the portal on the invitation letter, the general affairs department of Zilan Tower began to act. At the same time, this news was also passed to the controller, the great arcanist Horn.

"Respected Lord Shaduo, welcome to Zilan High Tower!"

"Ah."

Xia Duo nodded rather reservedly, and then, led by the relevant personnel of Kilan Tower on the side of the portal, went to a formal reception room not far from the teleportation room.

When Xia Duo arrived in the reception room, Horn was already waiting here. After seeing Xia Duo, he immediately showed a smile, looking quite enthusiastic:
"Lord Xia Duo, I have finally waited for you. Although I have met many times, I think this should be the first time we have met officially! Nice to meet you!"

"Your Excellency Horn, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

After a few simple greetings, Xia Duo quickly got to the point, "I don't know what I asked Master Aldrin to convey to me about the request for cooperation in blood sequencing. What do you think, Your Excellency Horn?"

"This is a bit difficult!" Horn frowned suddenly, "The bloodline sequencing project is a strategic project set up by the previous master of Kiran Tower, and it is difficult even for me to make a decision on the external cooperation of this project. but--"

"But what?"

"If it's one of your own, then you don't have to bother." Horn gave Xia Duo a meaningful look, and offered conditions without hesitation, "If the Lord Xia Duo is willing to join the Kilan Tower, then the bloodline You must be the person in charge of the sequencing project."

Hearing this, Xia Duo couldn't help laughing. I didn't expect that at this time, Horn still didn't forget to win him over. If he was willing to join the Zilan Tower, he would have agreed a long time ago, and there is no need to wait until now.

"Your Excellency Horn, please don't mention things like joining the Zilan High Tower. A group of people at the Tower of Time are counting on me to raise them! How can I leave them and be happy alone?"

Of course, Xia Duo’s words are mostly excuses. In fact, the existence of the Tower of Time does not affect his joining the Zilan Tower, but the Zilan Tower is not in line with his interests. It is easy to join now, but it will not be easy to leave in the future.

You must know that all members of the Tower of Time have signed a sacred contract with the Tower of Time, and it is impossible for Zilan High Tower not to do so.

If Xia Duo didn't have any ambitions and only wanted to hug his thighs, maybe joining Zilan Tower would also be a good choice, but obviously, Xia Duo has his own ambitions and goals.

He can almost predict that in the future, there will inevitably be differences of ideas and conflicts of interest between him, Kiran Tower and even the entire Seven Towers Group.

Instead of making trouble in the future, it is better to be sober now and keep a certain distance.

……

On the issue of whether to join the Zilan Tower, Xia Duo was very firm. Horn tried to persuade him a few more times, but ultimately failed to make any progress.

"In that case, I can only express my regret."

Like Xia Duo, Horn is also very firm on the issue of opening the bloodline sequencing project to the outside world. If you are not a member of Kiran Tower, don't even think about participating in it.

However, Xia Duo had expected this result a long time ago, and even specially prepared a trump card - a culture container with a cloning spell. He didn't believe that Horn was not tempted.

"Your Excellency Horn, don't you want to hear about my conditions regarding the cooperation on the bloodline sequencing project?"

In this regard, although Horn did not expressly refuse, he also showed an expression of disbelief, "Lord Xia Duo, although you have extraordinary blood power, Zilan Tower has been cultivating the blood field for hundreds of years."

Horn didn't say the whole thing after that, but Xia Duo understood what he meant. It was nothing more than - when it comes to the research in the field of blood, Zilan Tower is a well-deserved authority. How can outsiders surpass themselves in this respect?
"Did Your Excellency Horn forget the great country in the south, Calimshan?"

"Callishan?"

Hearing this name that was no longer unfamiliar, Horn's expression changed immediately, and he hurriedly asked, "Has Lord Xiaduo obtained the knowledge of Calinshan's blood?"

"Not really."

Xia Duo shook his head, but before Hornsong could breathe a sigh of relief, Xia Duo revealed a piece of news that surprised him even more, "But I believe that my qualifications may not be met by Calinshan either!"

"Really?" Horn asked solemnly.

"It's true!" Xia Duo also gave a clear reply again.

"This--"

Horn hesitated now, his face uncertain. He had just said that the strategic project of Zilan Tower would not be open to outsiders.

But now if there is a condition that will greatly help the project, it is really difficult for him to give up. Horn knows very well that blood sequencing is almost the absolute center of gravity inside Kiran Tower.

Whenever possible, all plans are to be compromised to this end.

Once the bloodline sequencing is completed, the Netherist magic system will be greatly expanded. When the mystery of the bloodline is completely revealed, Calinthian will have to lean aside.

Although there was still some resistance in his heart, Horn's mouth was still very honest, "I don't know what Lord Xiaduo's condition is?"

"A brand new life magic, I call it [Clone]."

"clone?"

It seemed that it was the first time he heard this word, Horn's expression was very subtle, and he wanted to ask carefully, but he felt that he couldn't get rid of his face.

cough--

"Lord Xiaduo, if this [cloning] magic is really useful for bloodline sequencing, then I think it is very reasonable to make an exception for this, and other people in Zilan Tower will understand."

Is this a verbal promise?

Xia Duo didn't pay much attention to this. His confidence was not the order tendency of Zilan Tower, but that cloning was not just a simple spell, but a series of spells including blood proliferation, directional differentiation, and body coordination. A collective term for the technology.

Before coming, the culture container prepared by Xia Duo actually only contained the part of blood proliferation in the cloning operation, and it didn't even have directional differentiation, and it was said to directly generate a body.

After taking out the culture container that had been filled with elemental water in advance, Xia Duo injected about ten milliliters of fresh blood into it in front of Horn.

The blood came from a servant of Azure Manor, and it was part of a small bowl of blood that Aiwa bought from the servant for 100 gold coins.

"Please look, Your Excellency Horn!"

As Xia Duo activated the cultivation container, the small clump of blood suspended in the elemental water began to squirm in a way that was hard to detect with the naked eye.

Under Xia Duo's deliberate reminder, Horn quickly discovered this, and it was more than——

He found that this small group of blood was slowly increasing!
