Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1765 Assassination and then contact

The so-called "basic thinking mode" is essentially reducing the Qi Ling to the simplest state where it can think, but at this time the Qi Ling can no longer be called "intelligent", and only has an instinctive reaction similar to neural reflex.

And the so-called "simplest state" is only carried out by Xia Duo based on his own experience, understanding and even intuition, and there is no strict standard.

If you want to find more basic thinking patterns, there is almost no other way than taking time to touch them slowly. Fortunately, this is an experiment that is closer to "what you think is what you get". As long as you are willing to think and summarize, you can always found.

In the following time, Xia Duo went to the blue crystal plane to build the floating city with Niya every day, and talked about the design of the lock during the break. In the afternoon, he locked himself in the laboratory and analyzed his self-consciousness in meditation.

If there is no accident, his state will continue until winter comes, but accidents are often so unexpected.

……

At noon that day, Xia Duo and Niya finished their lunch in Linshui Village and were about to meet the new citizens recruited through Broad. Since the portal opened, the number of people teleported here has become less and less.

But Xia Duo hadn't formally met them yet. This time, just in time for Shi Spell to migrate here voluntarily, he was going to see what was going on.

While discussing how to arrange for this spellcaster who does not belong to the Tower of Time sequence, the two went to the resettlement site of the fourth village of Linshui mentioned by Layton.

Halfway there, Niya's face suddenly changed, "Xia Duo, something big happened to the elves!"

"What happened?" Xia Duo slowed down a little, and asked, "News from the Austrian Law Federation?"

Although the several mage towers in the southern border now have official organizational memberships with the Arcane Union, they still belong to the Tower of Time in terms of large camps.

Therefore, news sources such as general event bulletins, monthly magazines, and supplements are all sent directly to the Tower of Time, and the Tower of Time is connected with Niya's essence, so it is natural to know about it immediately.

"The Great Elder of Evereska was assassinated when he was visiting Shruvande, and it is said that he is no longer able to survive." When Nya said these words, her eyes were both shocked and confused.

Not long ago, Evereska had announced to all parties that it would become a country of permanent neutrality. Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. Elder Evereska was almost equal to the crown king of other elf countries, so he was assassinated .

Don't know what will happen next!
"It is said that it is not working? Has the news not been confirmed yet?" Xia Duo immediately noticed the key point in Niya's words.

"That's what the news from the Arcane Federation said, but I guess, if it's the translated elf source, it may have been confirmed!"

translation?

Xia Duo was thoughtful. If the original source of the news was Elvish, according to the tradition of the elves, "death" is generally not said, but if it is a similar word, it is basically irreversible.

It's just that why did the Great Elder of Evereska suddenly visit Shruvand?Didn't Larian make the visit on your behalf before?
And who is the assassin?To assassinate the head of state at this critical moment, although Evereska is only a small city-state, it is also an official member of the Northland Alliance.

It is impossible for the Northland Alliance to let this kind of thing go. Even if it is the nobles of Cormanthor who make the move, there is a high probability that they will have to pay a heavy price.

Xia Duo instinctively felt that there was a problem, and it was a big problem, but he just couldn't figure it out, and always felt that there was a layer of window paper that seemed thin but hard to pierce.

……

"Let's go back to the Tower of Time!"

Xia Duo immediately dismissed the idea of ​​meeting the naturalized spellcaster, and took Niya back to the Tower of Time. Just when he was about to contact Iolum for details, an unexpected magic mark was triggered.

It's Hilda Lanna!

Want to see you?Xia Duo hesitated for a moment. At this time point, it is hard not to remind people of the assassination of the Great Elder Evereska. This incident was planned by Ye Erlan?
It's not impossible.

Of course, Hilda Lanna's "call" may be for other reasons. Xia Duo thinks it's good to meet, and by the way, he can also find out Ye Erlan's views on the assassination incident.

……

Come to the communication room,
Xia Duo cast the spell slowly, and as the projection unfolded and the scene changed, he saw Hilda Lanna with a mysterious smile on her face.

For Xia Duo, the moon elf's appearance is still in line with his aesthetics, but at this moment, Hilda Lanna's smile makes him feel chills inexplicably.

"Ms. Hilda Lanna, it's been a long time. Is there anything I need to cooperate with when you come to me this time? Then you have to prepare the corresponding reward!"

"Lord Xiaduo, let me tell you the result of the last incident. At the recent meeting of the Northland Alliance, the proposal of the special envoy of King Helian to fully open trade was rejected by all countries. It is said that King Helian There was a lot of fire for that.”

When mentioning this matter, the corners of Hilda Lanna's mouth turned up slightly, and she couldn't help feeling a little happy in her heart. The reputation of Mian Wang was hit, which was the biggest good news for those families who resisted Mian Wang's reform.

For Xia Duo, although he had just heard the news, it did not exceed his expectations. The full opening of trade would be detrimental to Netheril, and the Seven Towers would have opposed it with a high probability.

Furthermore, the current situation in the Northland is no longer what it was when the Northland Alliance was first established a year ago. Small countries form alliances with each other, which greatly enhances the small country's right to speak in front of the five major countries.

Opening up trade in an all-round way is not good for Netheril, but is it good for small countries?Small countries with increased voice will naturally object.

"Really? I also think that such a radical proposal is not suitable for the current Northland. Being rejected only shows that everyone agrees."

Xia Duo didn't get too entangled in this issue, but asked Hilda Lanna's real purpose for looking for him, and he didn't believe what the other party said to report the result of the last incident.

If that's the case, there's no need to use real-time messaging at all. If you want to, sending a message is enough.

Facing Xia Duo's question, Hilda Lanna had a faint look of disappointment on her face, "Human beings are always so impatient, Lord Xia Duo, what do you think of the [Light of Inspiration] potion?"

"The light of inspiration?"

Xia Duo was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses, and said ambiguously, "It's really beyond my imagination!"

Then he asked again: "Ms. Hilda Lanna, what exactly are you trying to say?"

In fact, Xia Duo hadn't used that bottle of potion yet, there was only one bottle, and it came from an elf. Even if it cost a lot, he wasn't going to use it unprepared.

It's just that he didn't understand why Hilda Lanna suddenly mentioned this, did she still want to fool him into going against that Moon Shadow family?
