Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2214 Talisman Feature Time Acceleration

The main reason why Niya said this is actually because those people's horizons are too low, and the income of a lifetime of hard work may not compare to the cost of her one experiment.

Sometimes she really didn't understand what her father was thinking. She had already known about some people's tricks, but she deliberately turned a blind eye and left a lot of trouble to her.

As for her uncles, although they would not object to her explicitly, they would choose not to act without hesitation if it would be more beneficial to them.

This is actually the biggest obstacle to the reform of the Savile Land - an invisible network woven from top to bottom by power and interests.

In other words, this is the Savile Collar itself understood by most people!

In the past, Niya has always been undecided to change. Apart from these human factors, the biggest psychological obstacle is actually the tradition passed down from the Savile family by the Savile generation.

Because Epps hadn't really died after all, Niya didn't want to see her territory no longer look familiar the day her father recovered.

But the development of the times will not accommodate individual feelings. At the same time, she, who is deeply influenced by Xia Duo, does not want her citizens to miss the opportunity for great development because of her personal selfishness.

In the end, it was the return of the great-grandfather, which made Niya really make up her mind. With the great-grandfather, even if the territory no longer looks familiar, her father will not be too sad.

"I've made up my mind. When Rongxue Naxin asks Layton to send someone to the north to take over the territory, I will ask Uncle Thain to cooperate with them."

"So urgent? Have you figured out how to resettle the original people?"

"Uncle Sean and the others just took this opportunity to retire. It is time to take a good rest after working hard for most of their lives. If they still have energy, they can also consider arranging a deputy post in the future. After all, no one can do it in a short time with the experience of most of their lives. Catch up. As for the others, I don't care, you can do whatever you want, follow the process!"

Niya said it easily, but it was the first time that Xia Duo felt her determination on this matter from her, "I understand, I will let Layton handle it properly.

"By the way, Savile, what does he think about this matter?"

"Great-grandfather doesn't care about these things, but he once mentioned that the statue in the central square of the town is one of his thoughts. As long as the statue doesn't move, great-grandfather probably won't have any objections."

"statue?"

Xia Duo remembered that he discovered the cloud because of observing the statue of Savile before, and he guessed that the statue might be related to Savile's early research on ascension.

But in today's situation, when almost everyone in the Ascension Ceremony has a share, what is a mere statue that seems to be a carrier of faith?

So, he told Niya:

"I will not move that statue, and the name of Savile Land will also be preserved. But you, you still have two or three months, you have time to listen to Savile's tone again, if he has any suggestions, put them forward as soon as possible , we can also arrange it as soon as possible.”

"You are too cautious, but it doesn't matter, I will ask again, I believe he will agree and support it."

Niya's tone was full of confidence, and then the two chatted for a while in the corridor on the public floor before leaving.

……

the next day.

Xia Duo continued to test [Essence Talisman] with Niya. This time he made full preparations, not only prepared as many as six test amulets, but also specially designed some illusions to simulate the world of mental images.

Of course, it's just a simulation, but the actual effect is far inferior. The main reason is that he doesn't want to use the trial series of spells to test again. He really doesn't want to experience the feeling of involuntary control once again.

The test process is still similar to yesterday, starting with low-level spells, then gradually improving, and finally using only high-level spells to test the specific effective range of the amulet, and also to verify Xia Duo's guess.

After a day of repeated tests, Xia Duo finally came to a conclusion——

[Essence Amulet] The protective effect on spiritual spells is indeed surprisingly good!

in particular--

It is almost completely immune to psychic spells below the 8th level, and no matter how many attacks it receives, it will not cause irreversible damage to the amulet; and above the 8th level, any attack will cause irreversible damage to the amulet.

But here comes the key!

No matter how powerful the spiritual attack is, a intact [Essence Amulet] can resist at least once!
In other words, as long as a person is rich enough and has enough spirit amulets with suitable attributes around him, he can completely ignore psychic attacks!

This made Xia Duo feel happy but also a little helpless. Of course, the reason for the joy is that [Soul Amulet] does have a high probability of being able to withstand the attack of the mental image world.

The helplessness is that this thing can only be used by himself, and Niya, who does not have a special blood, and other people who need spiritual protection cannot use it.

"Oh—" Xia Duo couldn't help sighing.

"How to say it?"

Xia Duo was amused by Niya's sudden answer in Chinese, and then he said in more familiar Chinese: "I feel so uncomfortable!"

And his reaction also made Niya laugh, and then comforted: "Don't worry about me, I will try to avoid going out during this time, I believe you will be able to find a way to transform [Spirit Amulet] into a more general item." method!"

"Well, I also believe that with your encouragement, I can definitely do it!"

……

In the next few days, Xia Duo began to devote energy to researching the world of mental images. At the same time, he did not forget the design of the time acceleration area of ​​the Floating Void City. He could start work only after getting Cliff's Mithril.

In this way, the time soon came to the day agreed by Xia Duo and Cliff.

This morning, Xia Duo personally delivered the goods to the door, and under Cliff's arrangement, he entered a spacious hall prepared in advance in the Tower of Radiance.

"Wow!"

As soon as he entered the hall, Xia Duo was shocked by the scene in front of him. The ten-pound standard mithril ingots were piled up neatly, like a hill, and the visual impact was so strong.

So much so that Xia Duo was a little speechless for a while, the mithril he had handled so far was almost so much, but the mithril he handled before did not need to be taken by him personally, let alone in the same time and space.

To him, those mithrils are just a number on the books, and the real-time mithril stored in the Tower of Time warehouse has never exceeded [-] pounds.

Now seeing this "alive" [-] pounds (a dozen tons) of mithril, he truly felt the charm of wealth.

"Your Excellency Cliff, didn't you agree to pay in installments before? Why now—"

"I bought some more on a whim. If Lord Xia Duo minds, then pay in installments according to the previous agreement."

"No, no, that's fine, money and goods are settled!"

Although paying in installments in terms of value has too much impact on Xia Duo, after all, he got the mithril for use, not for hoarding and raising prices. His plans became more generous.

It is not a bad thing for Cliff to settle the settlement in advance. The price increase of Mithril in the future is almost an inevitable result. If you buy enough now, you may be able to earn back a Mythrah when the price increases in the future!
It's a pity that Xia Duo didn't have so much money to play such a futures game, but Cliff just said that he bought more on a whim. How much more did he buy?
