Lord of Arcane

Chapter 274
"Mentor, are you looking for me?"

"Xia Duo, what's going on at the Myslock Ruins?"

what's the situation?Xia Duo was stunned. He could see Lord Epps playing with the communication magic weapon every day. If he said that he didn't contact Niya, then Xia Duo would not believe it.

"Teacher, I don't know much about Mysuo, I only know what Mr. Epps is studying." Xia Duo said cautiously.

"Xia Duo, what I'm asking is my father, how is he doing now?"

Although Niya's voice pretended to be calm, Xia Duo could still hear the obvious panic and uneasiness. After all, she was only a little girl in her early twenties, and Xia Duo's tone softened a lot:

"Teacher, Master Epps is not in a good state, very manic, as if he has accumulated infinite anger."

Niya was silent. Combining the previous communication between her father and her, and Xia Duo's description, she felt that her father probably confirmed the existence of the plane crystal, but he couldn't get it.

This judgment made Niya even more worried. Before her father left, she had made an agreement with her that she would definitely come back before Midsummer, but in this situation, the agreement might not be fulfilled!
Although crystallization of planes is important, it is not as important as her father. Niya doesn't want her father to take risks.

At this moment, Niya was so dazed that she completely forgot about Xia Duo on the other side of the communication magic weapon.

"Mentor, mentor?" Xia Duo called twice, but there was no reply. Looking at the communication magic weapon, it was still in the link state.

Well, broken.

Xia Duo shook his head and put away the communication magic weapon. It is better for him not to get involved in such matters.

Here, the people who let Layton call have come one after another——

The people, the slaves, Dongzhi from Langas, and Jochi's team who were on guard around the camp, and the Gibb team who hadn't gone out to hunt the wild beasts yet.

When these people came to the altar, they consciously lined up according to their respective working groups. Although the team was still a little loose, compared to being in a mess, this order was already quite good.

No one asked them to do this, but they did it anyway, which shows that the order has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Thinking of this, Xia Duo couldn't help but look at Leiden. Without him, Xia Duo would be in a lot of trouble!

"Citizens, have you seen the wooden house behind you? Tell me loudly, have you seen it?"

"I see!" Everyone shouted in unison.

"This is just the beginning. In the future, there will be houses, livestock, land, women, gold coins, and even magic!"

Xia Duo scanned the crowd with his eyes. Every time he said a promise, everyone's eyes would light up, and they would not dim slightly until he said magic.

It seems that his subjects don't believe that he can bring them magic, but Xia Duo's words are not casual. There is not much threshold for becoming a mage apprentice, and he can even force-feed a formal mage.

If these people can really follow him and stand till the end, then why not give them a little magic power!

"Cade, come out!"

A loyal and honest burly man in the crowd looked around, some couldn't believe that the lord had called him, but he didn't dare to neglect the lord's order in the slightest.

Step forward a few steps and come to Xia Duo.

Looking at the loyal and honest appearance of the strong man in front of him, Xia Duo naturally would not judge people by their appearance. He had been an adventurer and a porter, and he was willing to explore this unknown land with him.

He didn't think that this person was really that honest and honest, but Xia Duo didn't look at what he thought, only what he did. This Cade has been working hard when he arrived in the territory, and he has never been lazy.

On Layton's evaluation form, none of Cade's items was "excellent". Since he was willing to work hard, Xia Duo naturally had to show something.

"Kade, you have worked hard and performed outstandingly. I will assign this first wooden house to you in the name of Great Summer! Also, I will reward you with 10 pounds of jerky, and you will be promoted to the team leader!"

Cade thumped and knelt down on the ground, "Thank you sir, Cade swears his allegiance to you to the death!"

"Get up! Let everyone take a good look at you! As long as you work hard and obey orders, everything I said before will come true, including magic!"

Dismissing the crowd, Xia Duo left Qiao Qi and his team behind. They were citizens or soldiers of the territory. Compared with ordinary citizens, they had a fixed salary.

However, Xia Duo was still worried that their mentality would be out of balance because of the problem of the house, so he stayed to appease them.

After the soldiers also left, Xia Duo called Layton and ordered: "Adjust the previous plan and build the barracks first."

"Yes, my lord."

"As for my residence——" Xia Duo hesitated, but still made a decision, "I will let the Liadon Chamber of Commerce find craftsmen from Savile to build it."

In fact, not only the artisans but also the materials have to be bought and shipped from the Saville collar. The stones that can be mined on a large scale near the Great Xia collar are only the place where the goblins were cleaned after the initial landing.

There is no way to develop there for the time being, and besides, there are many places to use stone materials in the future, and there will never be too many. This time, it will be easier to just buy ready-made ones.

"By the way, arrange two smarter slaves to follow Dongzhi. I promise that as long as they learn the Langasian's method of training hounds, I will promote them as official subjects."

If it is possible not to sign the sacred contract, it is better not to sign it. In the final analysis, Xia Duo is still worried about Dongzhi. In addition, he has already entrusted the almost cooperative chamber of commerce to search for Langas people, so Dongzhi's role is much smaller all of a sudden. .

The only thing left is to train hounds, but this is not only Dongzhi. There are dog trainers in the Savile collar, and there are already three Langas hounds in the Daxia collar, and there are more than a dozen local Savile dogs. hound.

Although the latter needs to be retrained, it is almost enough.

In this way, the biggest role of Dongzhi is dispensable, why bother to bind yourself with the sacred contract!
Of course, if Dongzhi can train the Langas hound, it will be another matter.

……

Back in the small tent, Xia Duo took out the spell book, and continued to study [Levitation], as early as when he was on the boat with Lord Epps, Xia Duo had already started.

These days, he has also personally tried [Levitation], generally speaking, this spell is indeed very similar to the [Fly] he expected, but the experience is too bad.

It can only move up and down at a very slow speed, up to a maximum of 10 meters.

However, in the book "[Levitation] From Beginning to Mastery" written by Lord Epps, it introduces various applications of [Levitation], including a simple substitute for [Fly].

It only needs to adjust some elements of this spell to realize the minimalist function of [Flying Art], and even provide a certain foundation for the next study of [Flying Art].

Of course, this step is not easy to do.

The reason why the spell book is just a spell book, not a learning scroll, is that the spell book only has a general idea and very few element examples.

There are no specific and complete spell elements!

Everything needs Xia Duo to study by himself.
