Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2078 Promised Inheritance
After sighing, Vader's expression gradually calmed down, and he returned to the same indifferent face as before. In fact, in his opinion, he has already given in enough. If he completely followed his ideas, such things as the ascension ceremony should not exist at all.

But now, he has compromised, and what awaits him is a more pessimistic reality. For a moment, he wants to completely abandon everything in reality and find a projection plane to end his life!
"This will not work, that will not work, so what exactly do you want to do? You can't just watch Qita use the princess' intervention or threat, or win over everyone else, right?"

"this--"

Cliff looked at Magna, then at Xiaduo, and finally said helplessly: "Actually, I don't know what to do. You came late just now, so I discussed it with Lord Xiaduo!"

"What about your opinion, Lord Xiaduo?" Vader asked.

"Although I really don't want to say this, I have to say that Master Yerevan's failure is probably the best result under the current situation. Sometimes I even doubt whether Master Yerevan used extraordinary skills at the last moment when he was about to succeed in Ascension. His divinity foresaw such a predicament, so he chose to take the initiative to die, but unexpectedly, he was saved by His Highness the Princess!"

Xia Duo cannot guarantee that this is the case, but it does not prevent him from guessing. Master Yerevan is indeed someone he admires, among other things, but the cold-resistant wheat and the blessing spell are worthy of him to send the other party in a good direction explain.

And his statement has also been recognized by Cliff and others, at least on the surface, it is indeed the case. After all, such speculation can be regarded as a glimmer of pessimistic reality!
"Because of Master Yerevan's failure, other people's expectations for the Ascension Ceremony should have cooled down. The Immortal Life of the Kingdom of God may be a good choice for ordinary people, but it is not a good thing for Grand Arcanists. , I think His Excellency Cliff should have more say in this regard!"

Xia Duo didn't understand what eternal life in the Kingdom of God meant, but he believed that eternal life cannot be achieved without a reason, and the princess should have played a key role in it.

And Cliff, who was pointed by Xia Duo, further explained: "The soul reaches the outer plane, if it is not guided, it will reincarnate on its own, of course, you can also choose to go to the kingdom of death to enter eternal sleep.

"The reincarnated soul has nothing to do with his identity in the material plane, it will be a brand new existence, and when such a reincarnated person dies, he will enter the next reincarnation, and so on, until he loses all tendencies and enters eternity naturally Rest in peace, the so-called eternal life in the kingdom of God, actually needs to be maintained by the god you belong to, once the grace of God dissipates, eternal life will naturally cease to exist."

Cliff explained it in detail. It is very difficult for ordinary people to know this kind of inside information. From the perspective of readers, it is difficult for people to accept this practice of entrusting their fate to others—even in the hands of God.

Didn’t Vader just say that the so-called gods are just more powerful arcanists. Although most spellcasters are not so arrogant, the idea of ​​not wanting to be limited by humans and not willing to be under humans (gods) is the same. of.

With Cliff's supplement about the eternal life of the kingdom of God, Xia Duo continued to express his opinion:

"As long as there is a risk of failure, we can win over those who have doubts, such as Braun, or those who simply don't believe in the Seven Towers, such as Doleson and Cross. We don't need to fight against the Seven Towers. It’s just a matter of maintaining the status quo.”

It's hard to say what a good way is, simply put it in a group and then do nothing, to see what the Seven Towers will do, or wait for future variables.

It looks very negative, especially compared to Vader's oath pledge witnessed by the Lord of Radiance just now, it is extremely negative.

Even before Xia Duo finished speaking, Vader frowned deeply, with an attitude of "seeing Xia Duo's thick eyebrows and big eyes, I didn't expect to be a surrender faction".

But Xia Duo also has his own reasons. Of course, what he can say is "seeking common ground while reserving differences" and "the current main conflict is not about ascending the gods", etc. In fact, he still has reasons that he can't say for the time being, and that is——

In the not-too-distant future—perhaps tomorrow, Iolum may reveal [Mythra], and then the floating city and war spells may become a great obstacle to the Seven Towers' establishment of the Ascension Order.

The reason why it is "possible" is that this may also cause a reaction, making the Seven Towers have the upper hand, and the Ascension Order is achieved in an instant.

What will happen, he still needs to think carefully with Iolum, and there is no need to tell Cliff and others now.

Although Xia Duo said it negatively, in fact, in the current situation, there is God on one side, and the eagerness of all the great arcanists eager to make progress, but what about the other side?There is almost nothing, and maintaining the status quo is already the best result.

At this moment, Xia Duo felt that the failure of Master Yerevan might really be due to some kind of self-sacrifice foreseen by the divine nature!

……

Temporarily reaching an extremely fragile alliance with Cliff and others, Xia Duo left the Austrian and French Federation, and of course he also left Severton.

Driving the Floating Void City from the etheric plane and returning to the southern border, seeing Nya again, Xia Duo couldn't help telling what she had seen in Severton, and mentioned the failure of Master Yerevan and the immortality of the kingdom of God later, Niya couldn't help but sigh, Then I got worried again:

"Then shall we continue with the rest of the trip?"

"Of course, whether it's the intervention of the devil or the princess has nothing to do with our trip, although it really affects the mood!"

"Then what should I prepare?"

"No, just do what you have to do. We are going out in the floating city, and there is a portal on the floating city to connect with the territory at all times. Just treat it as a walk in front of the house. You can come back anytime if you have anything to do."

……

After warming up with Niya, Xia Duo drove the floating city towards the direction of East Comanso, and it was like walking in front of the house in such a leisurely way.

The next first stop is the border trade city of Conifera on the Netheril side. The floating city will make a short stay there, mainly because it needs to present its identity to the opposite city of Comanthor and apply for entry.

Of course, no country can claim sovereignty at high altitudes, but if you are always at high altitudes, it is no travel, at least you must be able to clearly see the scenery below.

If the scenery is made entirely by magic, then why go out, it is better to stay at home!

Before arriving in Conifera, Xia Duo was preparing to carry out the first round of inheritance ceremony. What happened to Severton filled him with a sense of urgency for the future, so he could only move forward the original plan a little bit!
