Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2045 Distorted Space
For the territory guards, Xia Duo has always been very concerned about it. Although it is only a transitional territory protection force, it can also lay a good foundation in advance.

Xia Duo actually doesn't have many high standards and strict requirements for the current territorial guards. There is only one thing that is set very firmly - that is to obey orders.

In this way, when spellcasters gradually replace ordinary soldiers, it will not cause chaos in the inheritance of order. As for the recruitment of thorns among the new leaders to join the army, in fact, there is more or less the idea of ​​​​seeing the assimilation ability of the leader guard.

……

After learning about the recent situation in the territory, Xia Duo finally talked about the Floating Void City: "Did you just send me a briefing about the foreign objects in the sky through the Tower of Time?"

"Yes."

Layton showed a surprised expression on his face, "Could it be that the foreign object in the sky is related to adults?"

"Yes, come with me."

After finishing speaking, Xia Duo got up and walked outside Layton's office until he walked to the altar square to the east of the government affairs hall. Then he blessed Layton with the flying spell, waved again, and said:

"Come up!"

As soon as the words fell, Layton jumped out of Lao Gao all of a sudden, and then slowed down abruptly. After going back and forth like this a few times, he barely adapted to the flying state.

But Xia Duo seemed much more relaxed and comfortable. For him now, flying was already an instinct engraved in his blood. If he temporarily disabled the [Walking Ring], his body would naturally soar into the air.

"My lord, are we going there?" Layton pointed to the strange thing the size of a fingernail far above his head, and asked Xia Duo.

"Well, it's also my territory, a new city. Come, come with me!"

"A new city?!"

Layton was very shocked, and quickly chased the lord and flew up.

At the current altitude of the Floating Void City, under normal circumstances, it would take at least 10 minutes to fly up there by flying. However, Xia Duo had already contacted the Floating Void City when he blessed Layton with the flying technique.

With the help of the war spell [wide-area prohibition], the distance from the floating city to the ground is distorted. As long as you fly to a certain height, and then fly up, you will find that the floating city grows rapidly from the size of a fingernail, almost occupying the entire field of vision .

It takes less than 2 minutes.

……

Below the floating city.

Layton raised his head, staring in shock at the main body of the floating city above, covering the sky and the sun. This expression has not stopped since he entered the fast passage of the twisted space.

At this moment, it was even more exaggerated to the extreme, and he was speechless for a long time.

Fortunately, Xia Duo was considerate enough. He waited until Layton recovered, then pointed to the public area of ​​the floating city hanging upside down, and said with a smile, "Don't want to go in and have a look?"

"Go in and see?"

Even though Layton had been trained for a long time, he couldn't help feeling hot in his heart, but he was a little at a loss looking at the completely upside-down world above.

"This—how do I get in?" Layton asked hesitantly.

"Just fly over there."

Saying that, Xia Duo had already flown over first, and Leiden hesitated for a moment and quickly followed.

The experience of passing through the boundaries of the distorted space is very wonderful, and I don't feel anything at all. The floating city, which was still in the upper hand, suddenly turned to my feet.

Next, instead of flying up, fly down.

Xia Duo had never crossed the boundaries of distorted space before, and these two experiences today gave him a new understanding of space and planes.

……

During the process of landing on the public floor of the floating city, Layton saw traces of people's activities in Hengchun Square at a glance, and almost subconsciously turned over there.

Xia Duo also let him go. Cook and the others hadn't left yet, and there must be a lot of things to say when they met. Seeing Layton fall to the ground and prepare to explore the public area, Xia Duo appeared in the central control area in a flash Inside a lounge.

He was here to make up lessons for Jay before, and now Jay is still studying the test papers that Xia Duo tailored for him.

The appearance of Xia Duo did not disturb Jay. This young man who is studious but knows how to seize opportunities did not notice that the teacher was already standing behind him, and he was still staring at the test paper with great concentration. Write and draw on draft paper.

"cough--"

Xia Duo coughed lightly, but the not-too-loud voice really startled Jay. He clutched his chest and quickly got up from the seat. Seeing that it was Xia Duo, he breathed a sigh of relief:

"Teacher, you almost scared me to death."

Xia Duo originally wanted to teach you another lesson, don’t let your guard down under any circumstances, but he thought that the magic civilization he wanted to build was not a dark forest where everyone was in danger, so the words came to his lips——

"I was wrong, I will notify you in advance next time."

Hearing the teacher say that he was wrong, Jay suddenly panicked, which was more flustered than being scared by the teacher just now, "No, to be honest, I was too involved and didn't notice that you have come, teacher."

Although the environment inside the Tower of Time has been greatly improved compared to the past, and Xia Duo has always presented a friendly and peaceful image, the status of the two parties is still too different after all.

Jay has not completely freed himself from the shackles of the old-age thinking, and this performance has obviously exceeded the normal level of politeness and humility. Seeing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he still needs to work hard.

"Okay, no need to argue about this. Clean up, Layton is here, it's in Hengchun Square, you go and show him around, not limited to the public area, after I set up the portal, you will return with them Territory!"

"teacher--"

As soon as he heard that the teacher wanted to drive him away, Jay's eyes turned red instantly, "It's my fault, I always fail to learn, and let the teacher down."

"..."

Xia Duo was speechless immediately, but considering that Jay was only a teenager, he might not have graduated from high school on Earth!

"It's not to drive you away, but to let you go back to reunite with your family. Think about how many days you haven't been home. Don't your family worry or miss you? It's Moon Festival at the end of the month. How can I detain you here again?"

The traditional moon festival in Netheril is to sacrifice ancestors, but Shaduo extended it as a festival for family reunion, and artificially created the habit of eating moon cakes for this purpose.

As a lord, of course he can't say one thing and do another, and if conditions allow students to reunite with their families, he must let them reunite.

However, what he said still failed to make Jay stop crying, so he could only take out the relevant information about the arcane field prepared in advance and stuff it into Jay's hands:

"These were supposed to be handed over to you after the Moon Festival, but if you don't give them to you in advance now, I'm afraid you won't be able to spend this year's Moon Festival with peace of mind."

"The arcane field? Is it the new trigger that the teacher told me about?" Jay stopped crying immediately after taking the information.

"Yes, that's it!"

Xia Duo looked at Jay who couldn't wait to read the information, and continued: "The contact during this period has allowed me to understand your potential. After the Moon Festival, I will pick you up to study the launcher in Floating Void City."

"real?!"

Jay didn't bother to wipe away the tears on his face, and looked up at Xia Duo expectantly, hoping to confirm the news again from the teacher.
