Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2198 Advice from God
As for whether the Illuminati of the Kingdom of Glory is the Illuminati of the main plane, Xia Duo certainly wouldn't just listen to Cliff's side story. The other party might not lie, but it was inevitable that he overlooked some key information.

And it's impossible for Xia Duo to tell the other party all the information he knows about the Illuminati, so he can only investigate through other channels, such as Ted's envoy, or he can personally go to the Kingdom of Radiance to investigate.

Now that it has been confirmed that there is an Illuminati in the Kingdom of Glory, Xia Duo has reason to go there to confirm whether the other party is an invader from a parallel time or not.

After all, the invasion of parallel time and space is very involved, and he has not been able to understand the principle of it until now. A possibility that does not actually exist compared to the time and space where he is now, how can time and space be transformed?

Solidifying certain historical nodes can save time and space. This is understandable. After all, the greater the difference between the two time and space, the more difficult it may be to change. This is a simple cognition, but what is the principle?
It was only obtained through interrogation of the demon descendants, so why do you think it must be right?

Maybe it was just released by the Illuminati to fool this time-space devil. In fact, all the prerequisites for time-space transformation have been fulfilled?

This sense of crisis that may cease to exist at any time, although it seems a bit illusory, makes Xia Duo more uneasy than the real crisis visible to the naked eye, such as the collapse of Dragon Madness.

After thinking for a while, Xia Duo asked Cliff again: "What about the Kingdom of Elam? Have you found any clues about their relationship with the demons?"

"Unfortunately not, I just confirmed that there are indeed demons in the Kingdom of Elam." When Cliff said this, his expression was a little embarrassed.

What is the difference between saying this and not saying it?
The current high-level officials in the Northland know that the demons are very good at hiding. Even the upper-class families in Yeerlan have been infiltrated. The Elan area originally belonged to Sluvand, which is a high-incidence area for demons infiltration incidents.

Now that the Elan region is independent, the demons in it may not all evacuate!
"Ugh--"

Xia Duo couldn't help sighing, even though he was mentally prepared before coming here and didn't have too many expectations for Cliff's investigation results, it is obviously impossible to say that he is not disappointed at this time .

Fortunately, the other party also provided a piece of news that he didn't know before, that is, the Kingdom of Glory also has the Illuminati. If there is nothing, then it is a waste of time!

……

Next, Xia Duo chatted with Cliff about the demons for a while. He had originally planned to leave, but thinking that the spread of Mythra was inevitable, it would be better to start with Cliff.

So, he naturally changed the topic to Floating Void City, and after chatting for a few words, he suddenly asked: "Your Excellency Cliff, do you want to build the most magnificent temple that is also the closest to the Lord of Radiance?"

"New temple? The grandest? The most resolved?"

Cliff didn't realize at the beginning why he suddenly talked about the temple, but then he had a bold idea:

"Is Lord Xia Duo planning to build a temple of our lord on the floating city? If possible, I am willing to bear all the expenses!"

"No, for the time being, I don't plan to build any temples on the floating city."

Xia Duo's decisive denial made Cliff a little disappointed, but then he had a bolder idea: "Could it be that Lord Xia Duo is going to give me a floating city?"

"Ah!"

How dare you think!Xia Duo's first floating city, which was named "Chang'an" not long ago, cost tens of millions of dollars, and it is not yet fully completed.

If it's a free gift, then it's worth going to the outer planes!
"Your Excellency Cliff, do you think I'm so rich? Can I give you a floating city? Although I can't give you a ready-made floating city, I can provide you with some necessary technologies for making a floating city. If you want, you can build it yourself, and you can build as many as you want, isn't it much better than just taking a big toy from me!"

"The technology necessary to make the floating city? Are you saying that you are willing to open up the technology related to the independent Austrian fire device to me?"

Although Cliff was born as a priest, he is also a great arcanist. As early as when the Xiaduo floating city came out, he had considered what key technologies would be needed to build such a floating city.

After discussing with the apprentices, Cliff believes that only an independent Austrian fire device can provide enough security, otherwise, what is there to look forward to from a big rock that may fall from the sky at any time and be smashed to pieces!
Now that Xia Duo mentioned the essential technology of the Floating Void City, he immediately thought of the independent arcane fire device. If he can obtain the relevant technology, it will definitely be the biggest benefit for the arcanist!

"Yes, it is the technology related to the independent Austrian fire device!"

For Cliff's guess, Xia Duo expressed his affirmation, and then pointed out, "But open technology also has a premise!"

"What premise?"

"You need to buy an independent Austrian fire device from me, so that I can attach related technologies."

This is actually the licensing fee for Mythra that Xia Duo negotiated with Iolum earlier, something that is not absolutely confidential in this world, at least not about Mythra.

The more Mythra devices sold, the higher the risk of being cracked by others. Instead of being cracked by others and causing patent disputes, it is better to open the technology in the form of patents from the beginning.

But Mythra is not an ordinary spell after all, but a high-end technology with extremely high strategic value. It must not be forced to be pushed among the members of the wizard tower of the Arcane Union like ordinary spells.

Only when the Mythra device is purchased, the technology will be given as a gift. On the one hand, it is to keep it as secret as possible, and on the other hand, it also takes care of the interests of all buyers.

As soon as Xiaduo mentioned the conditions of the technology, Cliff thought of the patent of the Austrian and French Federation, and then drew inferences, "Your Excellency Iolum should also be the owner of the technology, right, there should be seven towers , otherwise I don’t think you will disclose the relevant technology of the independent Austrian fire device at this time point.”

"Yes, you guessed right, the Seventh Tower has already obtained the technology from the teacher. Then, Mr. Cliff, do you want to get the technology from the Seventh Tower, or from me or my teacher?"

"It shouldn't be easy to get it from the Seven Towers. The ideal way is to get it from Master Iolum or Lord Shaduo."

Cliff made his choice almost without any hesitation, but he hesitated to choose Iolum or Shadow. He thought very clearly, even if Xiadou came here this time and did not mention the technology related to the independent Olympic fire, I am afraid that in the near future Master Neyorem will also deliver the message.

Therefore, he will not necessarily choose to buy from Xia Duo just because Xia Duo informed the news in advance.

Noticing Cliff's hesitation, Xia Duo also gave his own conditions:
"If you choose me or choose the teacher, there will be no difference in price. The only difference is that if you choose me, you can deliver the goods in a very short time. If you choose the teacher, the time will be very uncertain, because you Should be able to figure it out."

"Yes, I can imagine that it is not so easy to make an independent Austrian fire device, let alone there are other people competing, and I am not completely sure that I will be able to get the first one."

If it is just an ordinary magic item, or a high-quality magic item, it will not have much impact if it is later or earlier, but the independent arcane fire device is not only related to the floating city, it is more likely to be related to war spells.

Sooner or later, it is not a concept at all. Of course, Cliff hopes to get it as soon as possible.
