Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2495 The soul is gone

"It can't be Niya, it should be the five-member committee of the Academy!"

Savile seemed to have thought of something, and looked at the crowd around the statue of Xiaduo, but he did not find any members of the five-member committee, but there were quite a few members of the Advancement Society at the scene, and each of them showed an expression of approval in their eyes.

No matter whether they are capable of revenge or not, at this moment they have a lot of resentment towards Ye Erlan in their hearts.

Since the members of the five-member committee of the Advancement Society have all accepted the inheritance ceremony, Saville, as the tutors of these quasi-high-level mages, is quite familiar with Dean, Sami and others, and they all know that they and Xia Duo have known each other since the beginning.

"What about the Committee of Five?"

Iolum didn't take it seriously when he heard Savile mention this term just now, but now the Committee of Five seems to have controlled the Floating Void City, and even issued a revenge notice, which deserves his serious attention.

Regarding this question from Iolum, Saville was a little bit embarrassed, he didn't know how to explain the concept of entering the society, and finally said vaguely:
"Teacher, you can think that the Jin Society is the most staunch supporter of Xia Duo inside the Tower of Time, and the five-member committee is the representative of the Jin Society. They don't have complete control over the Floating Void City, but it's okay to call Nya out. And Niya trusts them too."

The implication is that even if the committee of five cannot control the floating city to take revenge three days later, they can call Niya out and persuade her to launch the floating city to take revenge.

Hearing this explanation, Iolum's frown became deeper. At this moment, Saville added, "If Niya decides to take revenge three days later, I will support her."

Although Saville didn't come back until recent years because he was exiled to a foreign land in the early years, the relationship with Niya is not very strong, but they are blood relatives anyway, and he is also very satisfied with Xia Duo, the grandson-in-law.

It's impossible that Xia Duo was attacked, and he was still indifferent. The reason why he can still maintain restraint now is that the situation is unclear and needs to be restrained, and on the other hand, he feels that Niya has more decision-making power in this matter.

Saville's statement made Iolum's expression even more gloomy. At this moment, he was not so sure about his suspicion that all this was written and directed by Xia Duo.

Once the suspicion subsides, the anger hits his already rock-like heart even more. Although Xia Duo is not a student who has followed him since he was a child, he pays no less attention to Xia Duo than those who have been brought up since childhood, even more. many!
No matter who was behind the assassin, who dared to use such a despicable means to attack his students, at this moment, Iolum was beyond angry. He took a deep breath and stepped forward to continue to check the statue of Xiaduo.

"Teacher, how is Xia Duo's situation?" Saville asked cautiously from the side.

He even three days later Nya's state is closely related to Xia Duo's current state, no matter what Xia Duo's current state is, it will not affect his support for Nya's revenge, but if Xia Duo's state is better, then Nya's mood will be better .

"A very clever spell, not only prohibits time, but also stagnates space, but this state also interferes with the detection of the outside world. I can only judge that Xia Duo's body itself has no obvious trauma, but the soul is. Gone."

"The soul is gone?"

Saville was very surprised by this, and then he seemed to think of something, and quickly added, "Xia Duo's soul should not die, the spirit of the floating city is connected to his soul, if Xia Duo's soul dies, the spirit of the floating city will die." It will also dissipate."

This is actually the inheritance principle of the mage tower. When the previous tower master is alive, part of the inheritance ceremony can be carried out, but if the previous tower master dies or is isolated at the plane level, it can be truly inherited.

In other words, Xia Duo's soul is most likely still on the main plane, otherwise the spirit of the Floating Void City would have dissipated due to the loss of support.

But according to general experience, once the soul of life leaves the body, it will be attracted by the outer plane, even if it still maintains a connection with the body, it is difficult to maintain this connection for a long time.

Therefore, Saville is more inclined to think that Xia Duo's soul is still in the body, otherwise it will be troublesome.

"Teacher, do you want to check again?"

"Ah."

Iolum did not refuse, because he was also very aware of the consequences of Xia Duo's soul leaving the body, but even if he tried his best, there was only one result——

This body frozen in time and space does not contain a soul!
"Pay close attention to the state of the floating city spirit, I'll go to the Seven Towers for an explanation first."

What Iolum said just now is to tell the Seventh Tower about the situation here, and then urge the Seventh Tower to come up with a solution. Now it is directly in charge of the Seventh Tower to explain.

……

After Iolum left, Savile also drove away the members of the Tower of Time surrounding Hengchun Square. After that, he personally set up a protective barrier before returning to his laboratory in the research area of ​​Floating Void City.

He wants to use his own method to search for Xia Duo's soul. It has been confirmed that the spirit of the Floating Void City is normal, and the learning machine integrated into the Lingsi network is also functioning normally. So much favorable information is enough to prove that Xia Duo's soul has not suffered the worst yet. In that situation, as long as it can be recovered in time, everything can be redeemed.

……

In the Northland, the turmoil caused by the attack on Shadow spread from the Tower of Time, Severton, to the entire Netheril, and then quickly spread to Yellan, and even the entire Northland Alliance.

Most of the followers are thinking about the possible impact of this incident on themselves and the Northland where they are located, while a small number, especially Yeerlan, are more concerned about the incident itself.

At this time, the news of Xia Duo's assassination had already been received in Ye'erlan, whether it was King Helian or the elders of the parliament, they were almost gnashing their teeth and talking about——

Who the hell would rather sacrifice a senior mage than pour dirty water on Ye'erlan's head.

Along with puzzlement and anger, there are more realistic considerations. How to deal with this matter in the future, they have received the news and cannot give a perfect solution within three days. Xia Duo's followers will most likely Start a war of revenge.

Thinking of the floating city that caused terrible damage in Zamdas in the south, the upper echelons of Yeerlan couldn't help but feel terrified. They were not worried about a single war weapon, but once there were skilled spellcasters to operate it, the situation would be completely different. same.

After discussing with the upper echelons of Yeerlan, they all worried that Netheril might take the opportunity to expand the situation. After all, in this case, Yeerlan was at a loss, and even if it was brought to the Northland Alliance, it would be difficult to get much approval.

Not to mention the impact of the Sluvand War not long ago.

Once the war starts, Yellan probably won't have any allies to support it. Even though Netheril has aroused the vigilance of other countries in the Northern Alliance because of this war, Yellan's losses have already been done by then.

In addition to the losses from the previous Sruvand War, after experiencing two consecutive wars in a short period of time, neither the crown king of Helien nor the elders of the parliament were willing to imagine such a gloomy future.
