Lord of Arcane

Chapter 2742 Interview with Architectural Designer

Of course, market factors are only one aspect that Xia Duo considers. There are also factors outside the market, such as whether being exposed to the elves earlier at the beginning of the development of Communication Mystery Lock will arouse vigilance, imitation or even resistance.

He had to consider the impact.

If the elves realized the great potential of the Communication Mystique and went to Netheril to promote their Communication Mystique, Shado believed that most Netherese mages would be more inclined to use the Elf one.

Therefore, until the Tower of Time's communications become a mystery, that is, until the user volume reaches a certain level, he will not touch the elf market to avoid attracting the attention of the elf in advance.

Of course, Xia Duo's current identity is destined to attract the attention of the Northland Alliance, even the four southern countries, and Eastern Imask. However, if he mainly promotes the Void Warehouse, he can still attract some attention.

Not to mention, the promotion of the Void Warehouse is also related to the spread of the moiré announcement to assist the prophecy ceremony, which is also a reason not to relax.

……

In response to Shado's objection, Niya showed a regretful expression, "That's such a pity. The new communication tool is not completely unavailable in Netheril, so let's promote the Void Warehouse first!"

Compared to the communication magic weapon, the Void Warehouse has no market at all in Netheril. When the matter was first brought up with the Brightwater Chamber of Commerce, the other party refused without hesitation.

Even if the Tower of Time promotes it by itself, it may not have any effect.

On the one hand, it is very expensive to use. Not everyone can afford it, at least middle and low-level mages cannot easily afford it.

On the other hand, there is absolutely no guarantee of security. The person Master Nese trusts the most is himself. How could he put all his wealth in the hands of others to preserve it!

Sha Duo himself has personally experienced this distrust. He had purchased a dimensional bag from the Austrian Law Federation earlier, and was reminded by Niya not to put important items in it.

But what is the purpose of purchasing a dimensional bag? Is it just to store some portable supplies such as water and dry food?
If there is no mage tower for things such as magic books and spell notes, it is safest to carry them with you in a dimensional bag.

But it would be terrible if this dimensional bag was not only in the hands of the purchaser, but could also be used by the maker. Middle and low-level mages had no choice, but high-level mages would choose to make their own dimensional bags if they had a choice.

Dimensional bags are treated like this, and the Void Warehouse can be imagined.

Therefore, when Xia Duo chose to open the market from the Elf World, it was really a last resort. Netheril did not have a tradition of using void warehouses, but the Elf World did.

Although he was very dissatisfied with the influence of elven culture on Netheril, he did have the idea of ​​​​taking advantage of this situation.

If the Void Warehouse of the Tower of Time can gain a reputation in the elven world, which here refers to a good reputation with credibility, then it may be logical to switch from export to domestic sales.

"Look, even the elves trust the Void Warehouse Service. Why don't you, a human, trust it?"

Xia Duo actually didn't want to use elves to endorse the credibility of the Void Warehouse, but the reality was that it was like this, and he could only slowly change it in the future.

……

After an interview with Niya and other people in the Tower of Time, such as Dean, Sami, Savile, Aberke and others, Shado transferred his consciousness to the incarnation of Everriska in advance. .

He couldn't really wait until Midwinter's Day before setting off for Yeerlan. It would have to be a few days in advance. Moreover, Evereska also had some things to deal with.

Just like now-

When Shado opened the seal and walked out of the lounge, Oripus, who learned the news, came to see him immediately and reported the latest progress here:
"Lord, all the elf designers who received invitations for interviews a month ago have arrived in Everesca. You can meet them at any time." "Well, that's what I came here for."

Before coming, Sha Duo was actually a little worried that the elf designers would be dissatisfied with his neglect and leave directly. Now it seems that either Oripus has done a good job, or the elf designers really don't have the capital to be arrogant.

Of course, it's more likely a combination of both factors.

However, Xia Duo will not look down on those elves because of this. Those invited designers may not be so top-notch in the elf world, but at least the lower limit is guaranteed.

What Xia Duo wants from them is that they don't need to have a high upper limit, as long as they can humbly understand Party A's thinking and make appropriate plans.

If a big-name designer comes, he may not be accustomed to the local environment.

……

The meeting place arranged by Oripus was a leisure bookstore near the Taltat Swordsmanship Academy on the second floor of the southern city of Evereska. Tea service was provided here, but more importantly -

Part of this bookstore overlooks a lawn between the Magic Academy and the Battle Academy below, which is the open space provided by Everesca to Shado to build a landmark building.

Xia Duo believed that the dozen or so designers must have visited this area many times in the past month. There was no problem of unfamiliarity with the location of the building, but it would not be a bad thing if they could watch it during the interview.

Of course, the main thing was the place arranged by Oripus. Xia Duo actually didn't have much to be picky about where the interview location would be. Since Oripus had arranged it, just use it.

The name of the bookstore is the same as the Taltat Swordsmanship Academy next to it, also called Taltat, which is actually the name of a legendary hero of Evereska.

When Shado came over, Oripus had already booked the venue, and there were already three or five elves who were suspected of being designers waiting here.

"Lord, please--"

Oripus took Sha Duo to the best viewing spot in the bookstore, and then introduced Sha Duo to today's interview list, "There are fourteen interviewees in total, five of them are from Akola, one is from Ye'erlan, The remaining eight are all local Evereska designers.”

In addition to nationality, Oripus also introduced the styles, main works and external evaluations of these fourteen designers one by one.

While listening, Sha Duo looked through the designer resume that Oripus had prepared a long time ago. When he saw one page, he immediately interrupted Oripus' introduction and asked:
"Are those elves I just saw outside the bookstore here for interviews?"

Xia Duo saw the image of the designer on his resume, which was very similar to one of the three or five elves outside. Based on his previous judgment, he was probably sure that those elves were the designers coming for the interview this time.

And Oripus also answered in the affirmative.

"The interview starts now, call them in."

There was still some time before the agreed interview time, but everyone arrived early, and with such a good attitude, Xia Duo didn't have to squeeze in the interview time so much.

"Yes."

Oripus responded and turned around to leave.
