Lord of Arcane

Chapter 201 Inheritance
It is indeed a performance, at least in the eyes of mages like Xia Duo, but in the eyes of ordinary citizens, it is the heirs of the territory who are showing their power.

Niya stretched out her palm, with the palm facing up, and a burning flame appeared above her left hand out of thin air, and gradually rose and swelled.

The onlookers immediately let out exclamations of surprise, and then, following Bishop Ambriel's introduction and the exclamations of the leaders, the flame in Niya's hand began to change.

Fire, ice, snow, lightning, thunder, all kinds of sound and light special effects, how to bluff people!
Talk about magic theory with ordinary people, and the other party can't understand, but ordinary people can accept the powerful forces that exist in nature.

It's just that this seems a bit boring to mages.

Just as Xia Duo was guessing when such a performance would end, a blue light suddenly shot from the mage tower in the northwest of the square and connected to Niya. Xia Duo was startled by this sight——

The scene in the magic vision is even more astonishing. From Taling to Niya, wherever the blue light passes, the magic net twists crazily, forming something like an energy channel.

But what is transmitted is not energy, but an unknown existence that Xia Duo has never heard of or seen.

Xia Duo thought, maybe this is the real performance!

……

At this moment, under the illumination of the mysterious blue light, Niya's body floated up slightly, only her toes were still pointing to the ground, and her previous performance of manipulating elements and energies came to an end.

At the side, Ambrill had finished his introduction, and was quietly watching this scene, seemingly feeling emotional, while Lord Epps handed over the scepter in his hand to Niya, and solemnly announced:

"Niya, my daughter, I entrust the Tower of Time to you!"

In fact, the transfer of the authority of the Tower of Time has been going on for almost a month, but the previous transfer of authority is subtle and not as drastic as it is today.

The handover and inheritance of a powerful magic item cannot be decided by just one or two sentences or a piece of paper. It involves the transfer of various authorities, the link and lock of the essence of people and things, which is very complicated.

And after today, there is only the last step left in the inheritance of the Tower of Time - the death of the previous owner.

Niya knew the responsibility on her body, took the scepter and nodded heavily, "Father, I will not let you down!"

The blue light from the mage tower disappeared, and Niya quietly landed on the ground, and the directors of various affairs in the territory who had been waiting for a long time, under the proxy of the mayor Thain, saluted Niya together and offered their loyalty!
And Bishop Ambriel, who witnessed all this, also came to the queue of territorial officials to pay tribute to Niya. Although he didn't say any words of allegiance, the meaning was already very obvious——

The temple and the lord are highly consistent!

And this also greatly stimulated the onlookers, pushing Niya's reputation to the peak abruptly. If there was anything missing, it was probably the allegiance of the members of the Tower of Time.

However, the Tower of Time is not a territorial sequence, and mages will not swear allegiance lightly, but the members of the Tower of Time are themselves bound to the Tower of Time. There is no name of allegiance, but there is loyalty.

Looking at Nya, who has become the protagonist, accepting the allegiance of his officials, the people, and the congratulations of the archmage, Xia Duo is quite complicated. The dream of hugging the (quasi) lord's thigh has come true. This should be something to be happy about, but becoming a pioneer But it made him very uncomfortable.

He has roughly read the development agreement on the golden paper. Generally speaking, there are many benefits to being a pioneer.

Such as guaranteeing the legality of the development in the name of the princess, providing some materials necessary for the development, and preventing the ownership of the territory from being invaded by others.

However, the premise of all this is to develop and develop successfully.

If you don't go, you won't have any support, and you may be hit by others. Although there is no specific consequence of not going to develop on the gold paper, it will not be a good thing.

And if you go, the wilderness welcomes you!Maybe it's been built in for the rest of my life.

Seeing that she has shown her face in the arcane competition, it is time to upgrade and raise her salary, and reach the pinnacle of her life. She never expected a hot potato to fall from the sky.

To take, or not to take, that is the question.

……

On the way back to the Mage Tower, Xia Duo was still weighing this matter. In fact, there was nothing to consider. What Xia Duo really needed was time, not the identity of a pioneer.

It's just that Kaili kept whispering in his ears, knocking on the ground, wanting to see the gold paper and the scepter, and he even wanted to look at the concentration ring awarded by the previous arcane competition, which was very annoying.

Xia Duo could only pretend to be still thinking, ignoring him.

After leaving the square, the sky had completely darkened, and there was going to be a dinner party in the Mage Tower, and the lights of the square were not turned off, but were reserved for the citizens.

The territory arranged food and drinks for them to revel.

The dinner in the mage tower was hosted by Niya. The lord and the archmages did not show up, but there were still many senior mages. nervous.

As Niya's two students, Xia Duo and Ganal have also attracted everyone's attention, especially Xia Duo, who has shown great potential and has also been awarded the title of "Pioneer" by Her Highness the Princess.

Different from the more indifferent attitude of the foreign mages, the mages of the Tower of Time are much more enthusiastic. This time, Xia Duo has recognized all the mages of the Tower of Time.

When Xia Duo returned to his residence after the banquet, before he had time to relax, he received a reminder from Ta Ling—the lord is here!
Ta Ling's voice was a little different from before, but now Xia Duo, who was so full of thoughts on how to avoid the pioneering mission, had no extra thoughts to detect it.

……

After entering the elevator, Taling sent him to the lord's floor without Xia Duo saying anything.

Entering the room, Xia Duo looked at the surrounding furnishings without any trace, trying to find out the lord's personal preferences. At the same time, he did not neglect and saluted respectfully:
"Lord Lord!"

Seeing Xia Duo, Lord Epps put down the teacup in his hand, and said in a relaxed tone: "Xia Duo, Xia Duo, I have been following you for a while!"

"what--"

Xia Duo immediately used his brain to recall whether he had said or done things he should not have said or done in the mage tower. Fortunately, Xia Duo has always been cautious, and probably he is no different from other people except for the organization.

And the organization has existed so far, and no one has come to remind him, indicating that this should be in line with the rules.

"I agree with Leonard taking you into the Mage Tower." Lord Epps nodded.

At Midsummer last year, Epps noticed a strong magic net fluctuation outside the town and found a powerful bard casting a spell, but it was not a destructive spell.

After some conversation, Epps sent Leonard to discuss the matter.Since a powerful person is involved, how could Epps not pay attention to Xia Duo.

And watching Xia Duo go from being surprised when he said he paid attention to quickly calming down, coupled with the arcane competition and Xia Duo's previous performance in the mage tower, Lord Epps unabashedly showed appreciation.

"Xia Duo, what do you think about being a 'blazer'?"

Of course, Xia Duo couldn't directly say that he didn't want to be a pioneer. After thinking about it, he said: "It is the responsibility of every spellcaster to open up the territory for the empire!"

This sentence was seen by Xia Duo in many mage biographies, and it is not unfamiliar at all to say it now.
