Lord of Arcane

Chapter 3259: The Origin and Dispute of the Three Kingdoms from Another Perspective
"Advisor Xia Duo?!"

Seeing Shado suddenly appear, Hippocrates' face suddenly changed, and he subconsciously wanted to check his disguise, but he soon reacted and asked tentatively:
"Are you a member of the Illuminati too?"

"I'm not." Shado shook his head. Hippocrates didn't commit suicide immediately and was still able to communicate, which meant that he really didn't want to die, and he didn't run away, which meant that he knew the strength of the alliance.

Hearing Shado say no, Hippocrates' eyes suddenly became dangerous, but at the same time he was secretly relieved. If Shado was also a member of the Illuminati, then the future would be too dark.

"You saved me? What do you want?"

Hippocrates did not ask Shado why he brought him to Sluwende, but instead thought that Shado was his savior and asked about the purpose of saving him.

"I didn't save you, I attacked your secret base and captured you!"

"It's you?!"

At this moment, the expression on Hippocrates' face was extremely wonderful, with surprise, confusion, anger, dejection, and all kinds of expressions intertwined, which really gave Shado a wonderful acting lesson.

Finally, Hippocrates calmed down. He looked straight at Shado and asked, "Didn't you use me to seek credit from the Alliance? I know you have always been keen on the power of the Alliance. If you hand me over, it will definitely be a great achievement."

"How do you know I don't have it?" Xia Duo said with a smile.

It’s great to communicate with a copy of consciousness. You don’t have to worry about anything and can say whatever you want. At worst, you can start over again, or directly break it down and analyze it, without any psychological burden.

Just when he said that, Hippocrates became alert again. He looked around and cast a spell secretly, but he couldn't find any clues. What Shado said was very strange. He asked in great confusion:

"What do you mean? What do you want to do?"

"Nothing interesting. I just want to ask why you want to join the Illuminati, and who are the wise men of the Illuminati?"

"This is not the question you should ask. I hope we will never meet again."

After saying that, Hippocrates was about to teleport away. He had already checked the surrounding environment and found no traps or restrictions. He didn't want to waste time here with Shado as he had more important things to do.

However, he was clearly able to cast spells to detect the surrounding situation before, but now when he wanted to cast a spell to teleport, he found that the magic network had no response at all. As a mage, this was the most worrying and terrifying thing.

Despite his long experience, Hippocrates couldn't help but feel nervous at this moment. He knew very well that no matter how powerful a wizard was, once he lost the ability to cast spells, he would be no different from an ordinary person.

Unless those wizards have modified their bodies, they may be able to gain some innate abilities, but he has always believed in the power of magic and has never made any modifications to himself.

And now, he finally felt the powerlessness of losing his magic.

"Is it you?" Hippocrates looked at Shado suddenly and asked with some uncertainty.

"It's me, can we have a good chat now?"

"You were able to deprive a high-level wizard of his ability to cast spells in an instant, and I couldn't see any clues at all. Humph, everyone in the North underestimated you!"

Hippocrates suppressed his inner shock and dissatisfaction, but couldn't stand Shado's nonchalant look, so he couldn't help but say a few words.

"You think too highly of me, but what you said later is also true. You did underestimate me. Now you can answer the two questions I just asked!"

"You even know about the wise men, and you still want to ask me why I joined the Illuminati?" Hippocrates said coldly.

In his opinion, Shado was completely teasing him. He didn't believe that someone who knew about the existence of the Wise Men would not know why they joined the Illuminati!

"In order to rebirth Elan? But aren't you an Elan elf? Why do you still believe the Illuminati's lies?"

"You even know about Elan's rebirth?! You're not Shado, who are you?"

At this moment, Hippocrates could no longer remain calm. If Shado knew about the Wise Man, it could be explained. After all, a high-level wizard of the Illuminati had been captured before, and maybe he could find out about the existence of the Wise Man.

But Elan's rebirth plan is definitely not something that those peripheral members can know about. And the most crucial thing is that if the Alliance knew about Elan's rebirth plan, with the Alliance's understanding of time-related magic, how could it not strictly control Elan!
Therefore, he concluded that the man in front of him who looked like Xia Duo was definitely not the real Xia Duo, otherwise, given Xia Duo's enthusiasm for the alliance's power, he would definitely have leaked this news to the alliance to seek credit.

"Don't worry about who I am, just answer the questions." Xia Duo said with a stronger tone.

He didn't know how much Hippocrates had imagined, but he was too lazy to explain more. This problem didn't make sense no matter how he explained it. Was he going to tell the other party that you were just one of the many copies of your original consciousness?
However, Hippocrates thought that Shado's behavior was a typical case of anger after his lie was exposed. However, Hippocrates did not want to anger Shado, so he could only nod helplessly and replied:
"Yes, I was moved by the Illuminati's Elan Rebirth Plan and chose to join them. As for the identity of the Elan elves you mentioned, hehe, do you know the origin of Elan?"

Without waiting for Shado's answer, Hippocrates explained himself: "Yerlan was originally established by a group of Sharven elves who were eager to make achievements, and Sharven was established by a group of lower-level elves who were rejected by Sluvend with the support of Everiska. Of course, Everiska at that time is not the same as Everiska now.

"Do you understand what I mean? My family can be traced back to Sharwen, and then back to Sluvend. Most of those who were excluded and expelled by Sluvend were lower-level elves. But how could the lower-level elves alone successfully establish a country?

“After all, Everiska was just a large refugee camp composed of the survivors of various countries before the Crown War. If it weren’t for the leadership of my upper family, Sharwen would never have been able to establish it so easily.

“It’s a pity that the common people are still common people after all. They don’t see the significance of the existence of the upper family. After the country stabilized a little, they began to exclude us, so we could only establish Yeerlan again.

"You should know what happened later. Yeerlan rose to prominence in the war with Sluvend, while Sharwen, a country of the lower people, was left far behind by us because it was content with its peace and comfort.

“Originally I thought this was the end of everything, but I didn’t expect that beneath the seemingly calm surface of the North there was an undercurrent like the Illuminati. I came into contact with them because my family can be traced back to the Elan region during the Sluvend period.

"Afterwards, I was moved by their plan to regenerate Elan, and joined their plan to create a great country that would unite all races in the world."

That's it!

This was the first time that Xia Duo learned about the origins and entanglements of the three countries of Yerlan, Sharven and Sruvende from the perspective of a historical witness.
