Lord of Arcane

After chatting for a moment, Du Mu showed a somewhat uncomfortable look on his face and said to Sha Duo: "Next, I will ask some questions about the previous investigation. If it is convenient, I would like to ask Lord Sha Duo to answer truthfully."

After saying that, a spiritual light popped up from Doum's hand, and then Sha Duo noticed that the small courtyard where the two of them were in was shrouded in an unknown sensory field.

Xia Duo understands that this should be a fixed process of reporting, otherwise Dum is also a person who witnessed the Metril incident, and is also one of the leaders of the investigation team, so it would be very convenient for Dum to report.

Or, if something is unclear to Doom, wouldn't it be convenient to ask him in private?Why let him make an extra trip.

Apparently, the Northland Alliance wanted to know more detailed incident process through him. In this case, it is not appropriate for Dum to be in charge alone. Other personnel must cooperate, such as making records, judging whether Xia Duo is lying, etc. wait.

The reason why those people did not come forward may also be because of Xia Duo's current status, and he tried his best not to complete the inquiry in a special formal occasion.

……

Next, Doom's tone of voice was obviously different from before, becoming more solemn and formal, and the questions he asked were completely in accordance with the procedures.

Although he had not been angry with Xia Duo beforehand, Xia Duo had come to the archives of the Demon Intelligence Research Laboratory to check information and read many investigation reports and incident records.

Basically, he is very clear about the set of procedures. At this moment, between the two of them asking and answering, they completely explained what happened during the period from the departure of the investigation team from Evereska to the departure from Metril.

It involves some details that should not be disclosed to the outside world, such as the specific operation method of the Lingsi network, and the method of contacting the outside world in the blocked independent space, and so on.

Chateau only mentioned these briefly. Of course, Doom was very sensible and did not inquire into the details in this regard. Instead, he focused his inquiries mainly on Paris.

Even the process of how Xia Duo communicated with Paris and how he knew the secrets of Paris did not delve into it, but only confirmed this fact.

The fact that Paris is an Illuminati, and the fact that ritual spells that overturn timelines.

Regarding the ritual spell, Xia Duo had handed over the relevant details to Yeerlan when he was in Metril, and of course he also handed over a copy to Dum to the Northland Alliance when he left Metril.

Only two days have passed, and the Northland Alliance seems to have not yet determined the true effect of the ritual spell.

This caused Xia Duo to speculate that some or some demons who had already hidden in the Northern Alliance deliberately obstructed it, but this was just inaction in the field they were good at.

If the action is too big, others are not fools.

But even so, it had such a big impact. Xia Duo was previously curious as to why the Northland Alliance still wanted to find him to confirm the details of the incident even though he had handed over the most critical ritual spells!
So when Dum's inquiry was over, Xia Duo specifically emphasized the importance of studying that ritual spell, and suggested that the Northern Alliance set up a special organization to conduct research.

When the Devil Intelligence Research Office was established, all members should have been checked, but there were inevitably omissions, and after such a long time, there might be new infiltrations.

Now the new institution can justifiably conduct a detailed inspection again, and as a specialized institution for the study of that ritual spell, it must have a stricter regular inspection mechanism than the Devil Intelligence Research Office.

Although doing so may not completely eliminate the infiltration of the demons, it can at least increase the cost of their infiltration, allowing the Northern Alliance to have more time to shorten the gap between the two sides in the field of timeline.

As long as the research progress of both parties is close, the possibility of the demon trying to subvert the timeline through the ritual will be reduced to the extreme. After all, it is easier to destroy the ritual than to complete it.

……

"Lord Xia Duo, thank you for your cooperation."

Along with Doom's official thanks, a human officer from the Northland Alliance walked in from outside. After bowing to the two of them, he took out an exquisitely carved wooden box.

Dum took the wooden box from the other party, and then handed it to Xia Duo, explaining at the same time: "This is the reward for Lord Xia Duo's previous participation in the investigation, and it should have been sent when the investigation team returned to Evereska. But at that time, everyone was eager to rest, so they delayed it, but fortunately, it is not too late now."

"Well, I took it."

Just the outer packaging is a storage tool, the things inside can't be cheaper, right?Xia Duo was actually quite curious about what was inside!

He took the wooden box and opened it casually. As he thought, it was indeed a storage item, but the link object was not a demiplane, but a small dimensional space.

The first thing that caught his eye at this time was a small pile of standard mithril ingots with a side length of about ten centimeters. After just one glance, Xia Duo initially estimated their value - about one hundred thousand gold coins.

And next to the small pile of mithril ingots, there were more than a dozen gemstones and a spell secret scroll scattered around.

Almost all of the dozen or so gemstones are of high quality. Even across many layers of space, Xia Duo can feel the elemental energy in them. It is initially estimated that they are worth 10,000+ gold coins.

However, for Xiaduo who owns Mythra, the value of these gems is greatly discounted.

As for the magic scroll, Xia Duo took it out and saw that it was a relatively complete supreme inheritance. Compared with the previous ones, the value of this one is difficult to directly measure with gold coins.

For Xia Duo himself, it may only serve as a reference value.But for elf families who want to break through the hierarchy, the value of this inheritance is too high.

Conservative estimates also start with a million gold coins.

In fact, it is almost impossible to obtain the supreme inheritance with only gold coins. In the world of elves, there are only a few very limited ways to obtain the supreme inheritance——

Either you have it at home, this is the easiest way to get it.

Either he is extremely talented and very lucky, and is accepted as a student by a high mage.

In the end, and the only thing that ordinary elves can do is to be a dog for the upper-ranking family for hundreds of thousands of years. inherited.

Passing on means allowing the next generation to continue learning, which is closer to a qualification than specific knowledge itself.

There is no shortage of various relics in the Northland. As long as you are willing, you can always find some scattered inheritances, but even if some elves get them, they dare not show them, unless they become high-level mages at the moment of obtaining the inheritance.

Otherwise, once it is displayed, it may be plundered by the upper family through various means. (end of this chapter)
