Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2129 Master Esther makes mutual requests
At first, the negotiations between Jibril and the elf knights were not smooth, and it was Xia Duo who threatened to find Irati after arriving at the scene, which made the other party restrain his attitude, but even so, the elf knights did not let them enter the Maired family. oasis territory.

"Please wait a moment, I need to report to our commander!"

Although it said "please", Elvish language is not a simple written language, but also involves changes in pronunciation and intonation as well as various rhetorical words.

In short, in the eyes of Xia Duo, who is proficient in Elven language, the elf captain's words were quite rude, and among the other humans present, he was not the only one who was proficient in Elvish language.

In other words, although other people don't know as deeply as he does, they are more or less proficient, especially Jibril, who was sent by the Grand Consul Fahd to communicate with the elves. So incompetent.

However, the attitude of the elves is very important at the moment, Jibril explained to Xia Duo for those elves with a humiliating smile on his face, as if he was afraid that Xia Duo would let the elves replace another person like before.

This is an elf, if this is really done, the re-investigation plan will definitely be affected.

What else can Xia Duo say about this?I can only complain to Savile, "These elves regard Calimshan as Katemir!"

However, in such a classical era, for the lower class, it is often enough to have passion and obedience, and rationality is something that the upper class is qualified to have.

The special envoy of Irati that Xia Duo met in Yungong last night, even if he was dissatisfied, didn't he still agree to the request of re-investigation put forward by Calinshan?

Of course, the reason why the other party did this could not be for his face, but to eliminate doubts as much as possible, and not want to fight an unclear war.

Just as Xia Duo thought, after a while, an elf mage directly teleported over, waved off the team of knights immediately, and then walked towards Xia Duo, saying in a friendly manner:
"Lord Xiaduo, Lord Irati arranged for me to accompany you to investigate the assassination of Prince Sith. You can call me Mage Esther."

"Master Esther, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Xia Duo greeted briefly, and then said: "I want to go to the scene where the prince was assassinated, is it convenient?"

"It's convenient, but there are a few requirements that I will mention to you one by one on the way, I hope you can understand."

"can."

Xia Duo nodded, and Esther opened a portal in front of him when he saw this, and then gestured to him to invite him in.

Opposite the portal is a road paved with white stone slabs, and there seem to be some tall buildings looming in the distance. Xia Duo did not cast a spell to investigate, but Taraph sent a secret message to remind:
"The opposite is a small road on the west side of Tianshui Square."

Xia Duo returned a understanding look, and then led Savile into the portal calmly. Both he and Savile came in avatars, and they were not afraid of the elves ambush.

In fact, although the Tianshui Square has been taken over by elves, it is impossible for Calinshan to let the elves occupy a piece of land out of thin air. There are also scholars of Calinshan there, and there are many bloodline controllers among them.

If they really wanted to fight, the elves obviously couldn't take advantage of it, let alone Xia Duo's usual practice - pre-locking the floating city.

As long as the lock is not unlocked within a certain period of time, no matter what is there, you must use [Light of Annihilation] to fire a few shots.

……

After passing through the portal, Esther immediately reminded Xia Duo: "When we get here, we will try our best to cooperate with your investigation, but there are two requirements, and Lord Xia Duo should try his best to comply."

"Master Esther, you said—"

"First, any spells aimed at the scene of the prince's assassination or related clues must be told to us in advance, and we can only cast it after we agree."

"That's no problem." Xia Duo readily agreed, and he could fully understand this. The elf was worried that the scene or the witnesses and evidence would be contaminated, which would cut off any possible clues.

Starting from this request, Xia Duo can probably guess what request Esther will make next.

"Second, to cast spells on any unique on-site elements or other relevant clues, we must obtain our consent, and at the same time, I must participate in the execution.

"For this reason, if some unique spells of Lord Xiaduo are involved, Katemir will make compensation. I hope Lord Xiaduo can understand."

This request is similar to what Xia Duo thought, but he didn't expect the other party to promise compensation, so he nodded and agreed, and at the same time made his own request:

"Since I am leading the investigation, I hope that you will not have any reservations about the issues related to this incident, and do not interfere with the direction of my investigation, otherwise, if you make a misjudgment, it will be a matter of two The tragedy of countless people in the country!"

Esther obviously didn't expect Xia Duo to make a request, but after thinking about it for a few seconds, he still agreed.

……

Soon, the trail came to an end, and the Tianshui Square, which was as pure as jade and glowing in the sun, arrived.

As soon as he arrived here, Xia Duo felt a tense atmosphere. On the south side of the square was a camp surrounded by the breeze, and there were Calinshan warriors patrolling and monitoring the sky and the ground.

On the north side of the square, it became the territory of the elves. Only the middle area was shrouded in a stagnant field. No one controlled it, but any party maintained 12 vigilance there.

At this time, Taraf sent a secret message again, "That is the scene where the elf prince was assassinated. After the incident happened, the elves immediately took control of the scene and imposed eternal stasis on that area under the watchful eyes of my grandfather."

Xia Duo doesn't know Calishan, and the two parties communicate in Elven language, and the rich semantics of Elvish language made him immediately understand what the so-called "scene" includes——

Anyone or anything that was in that area at the time was stagnated except for that area itself!
"then you--"

"It was a consciousness projection outside at that time. After the main body was imprisoned, my grandfather created this incarnation for me."

Xia Duo didn't think about it before, but now that Talaf said this, he realized that the other party's body didn't seem to be a body of flesh and blood, but a product of elemental mimicry.

It should be a technology similar to celestial projection. Xia Duo kept this discovery in his heart for the time being. The most important thing at present is to get the investigation done first.

……

Perhaps because he had already greeted him beforehand, when Xia Duo went to the center of the square this time, he was not blocked by either the north or the south. After he approached, he saw the stagnant field that was almost integrated with the surface at close range.

If you only look at it with the naked eye, you can only see a nearly pure white shimmering field, and only through special detection spells can you "see" the general situation in the stagnant field.
