Lord of Arcane

Chapter 3192 The Real Danger of Kalish

Hearing Shado mention the psychic artifact destroyed in Toksent before, Torres was speechless, but he still tried to explain:

"That time in Toksent, the Zechi School underestimated your attack. If you give them another chance, you will never be able to destroy that artifact so easily."

"Even if we give them another chance, the result will be the same." Xia Duo said confidently.

[Light of Annihilation] is extremely powerful. When the output is extreme, it can create nothingness. Most of the currently known matter (including magic items and psychic artifacts) cannot exist safely in it.

Only a series of special substances such as plane barriers or plane crystals can maintain their own existence, but the nothingness created by [Light of Annihilation] is not as peaceful as the etheric layer.

It will first annihilate matter and release an extreme energy shock, and then further annihilate space, which will also release a huge energy shock, and then there will be nothingness.

In other words, even if those objects can exist in nothingness, they cannot withstand the energy impact in front.

When Shado destroyed Toksent, he did not do it secretly, but drove the floating city there openly. Was the Zechi School really not prepared at all?
In that situation, it’s never too much to be prepared!
But in the end, the city of Toksent and the psychic artifact in it were destroyed by him. This was enough to illustrate the limitations of the psychic artifact. It was just a special magic item and was not worthy of the name of artifact at all.

Now, the new artifact that Kalish wants to create may have more powerful capabilities than the original psychic artifact because it incorporates arcane wisdom, but it is impossible to convince Shado that it is the real artifact.

Since it is not a real artifact, it is still a mortal object and can still be destroyed by the [Light of Annihilation].

Of course, [Light of Annihilation] is not omnipotent. It can be blocked by [Boundary Protection]. However, Xia Duo has not done extreme experiments yet, so he is not sure whether the spear or the shield is stronger.

But in the case of low and medium equivalent of [Light of Annihilation], [Boundary Protection] is still no problem.

Kalish is an elf, and perhaps he has inherited [Realm Protection], but the source of Shado's confidence is not just [Light of Annihilation], but also [Misera] which is enough to support [Light of Annihilation] to be used as a regular spell.

As long as he is given some time, or Kalish refuses to run away, he will not be afraid even if the new artifact is created.

What he was really worried about was not the new artifact, but the various disasters that would occur in the process of creating the new artifact.

However, Shado's confidence does not mean that Zhamdas has confidence. If Torres had not come with a mission, he would even want to point at Shado's nose and say that he was arrogant, but when he thought of the mission, he endured it.

"Advisor Shado, please do not underestimate Kalish and the new artifact he envisioned. Think about the material he plans to use to create the new artifact - the wisdom of the northern arcane wizard.

"Once the new artifact is born, it is very likely to have the ability to perform arcane magic all night long, while also possessing all the abilities of a psychic artifact. The combination of the two is far from as simple as "1+1=2".

“According to our school’s speculation, once this new artifact is successfully created, it will most likely have the ability to directly change reality. By then, even if Kalish wants to rule the world, it won’t be difficult.

"Perhaps you don't know yet, but Kalish already has the ability to regenerate himself, or this ability has some fatal drawbacks, but before we discover it, there is no solution."

At this point, Torres once again recalled the rebirth demonstration he had seen in the country. While he was wary, he also hoped that he would be the one to master such an ability.

Then he continued:

"In fact, the reason why I sneaked in here tonight to meet with Advisor Shado is because Kalish's ambition has become unstoppable. We don't want to succumb to him anymore, so we urgently hope to cooperate with the Northern Alliance to get rid of him together."

"I already know about Kalish's rebirth ability that you mentioned." Shado said calmly on the surface, but his mind was already working frantically.

As expected, as long as he possesses such ability, it would be difficult for any party to tolerate him, not to mention that Kalish is always thinking about making a big plan, which is really a way to seek death.

"Has Counselor Shado seen Kalish demonstrate his rebirth abilities?" Torres asked.

"I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but I have a reliable source. Now compared with the information you provided, the credibility has increased a lot again."

Xia Duo did not hide his true opinion on the matter. Although it was very unbelievable, he did believe that Kalish had the ability to regenerate himself.

After thinking for a while, he asked Torres, "You mentioned cooperation. How does Zhamdas want to cooperate? Do we both want to gather people and besiege him directly?"

"A direct siege is not feasible. The consequences of a failed operation are more terrible than the consequences of inaction. We must have a complete plan. I hope to discuss the details after meeting with representatives of various countries."

Torres was tight-lipped and was unwilling to delve into this topic before meeting the representatives of the northern countries. However, it was impossible for Xia Duo to call the representatives of various countries together without any solid evidence. This was unrealistic. He directly said:

"What can you say now? And you just said that you succumbed to Kalish before, where is the evidence? If you want to meet with representatives of various countries in private, you have to give me a certificate, right?"

"That's all I can say now. As for the evidence and credentials you want, I don't have any. Even if I did, I wouldn't be able to produce them for fear of being discovered by Kalish. I just hope that Advisor Xia Duo will trust me with your own wisdom and intuition and help me arrange meetings with representatives from the northern countries."

"I think you may be late. Kalish has already convinced the Yeerlan side, and even Komanso may have been convinced by him. What's the point of you meeting the representatives of the two countries? Kalish may still discover your intentions."

What Xia Duo was talking about was that Yeerlan's attitude had suddenly changed recently. After meeting with Elder Regante of Evereska, he speculated that Yeerlan might also have been tempted by Kalish's immortality and the disguised threat brought by his rebirth ability.

Of course, Yeerlan may not feel such a threat, and as for Komanso, the temptation of immortality may be greater. But if Torres is arranged to meet with the two representatives to explain the threat of Kalish, it is indeed possible to reach a cooperation with Zhamdas.

However, since Xia Duo has not seen the specific content of the cooperation and the solid evidence shown by Torres, he certainly cannot easily agree to the other party's request.
