Lord of Arcane

Chapter 351 Astral Mage Plane Scholar

"Is there anything else you need to pay attention to?"

"What's the matter?" Xia Duo asked.

"It's about the plane exploration circle."

Speaking, Niya turned to look at Xia Duo, "I learned from the teacher that if you want to search for new planes more efficiently, whether it's a projected plane or a real sub-plane, you need professional searchers .”

"Understandable, what should I pay attention to?"

"Pay attention to people." While speaking, Niya took out two books from the dimensional bag and handed them to Xia Duo, explaining at the same time, "The projection plane is essentially just a mental fragment of the astral world, and I want to search for it more efficiently. It is necessary to cultivate professional astral mages, and the same search for sub-planes also requires the cultivation of specialized plane scholars.”

"Astral mage? Plane scholar?" Xia Duo repeated these two new words, only understood from the literal meaning of the Nether language, which means a spellcaster who is proficient in astral and plane knowledge.

Flipping through these two books, one is "Exploration of the Star Boundary" and the other is "A Preliminary Explanation of the Plane". I don't want to check the specific content right now. Xia Duo put away the book and asked:
"How to pay attention to these two kinds of people?"

"Astral mages need to have excellent spiritual talent; and plane scholars need to have excellent plane affinity." Niya said a series of words that made Xia Duo very unfamiliar.

"Is there any special detection method? Also, how did the astral mages and plane scholars in other places find it?"

To be honest, the most annoying thing about Xia Duo is the unquantifiable attributes, such as spiritual talent. There has never been an instrument or spell that can directly measure the number and number of points of spirit.

This very vague concept made Xia Duo, a person with a background in science and engineering, very uncomfortable.

And Niya's answer made Xia Duo feel even worse, "There is no detection method, even if it is prophecy, it is rarely useful. Most of the astral mages there are priests who are proficient in magic, and plane scholars Most of them are arcanists, and they must have experience in plane travel, the more times they have, the stronger the plane affinity will be, and the projection plane is not included in it.”

A clergyman proficient in magic?An arcanist who has traveled between planes?

This made Xia Duo dizzy for a while, which made him look for it there, but he also understood that Niya was making a long-term plan. If the Tower of Time wanted to develop, all these personnel must be fully equipped.

Of course, it doesn't mean that without astral mages and plane scholars, the plane exploration circle cannot be used, but the efficiency will be lower.

Thinking of plane travel, Xia Duo thought that he had been to the shadow plane not long ago, so he asked: "Does going to the shadow plane count as having experience of plane travel?"

Of course Niya knew what Xia Duo was talking about, but she didn't know very well, after all, she had just become a student of Her Royal Highness, and the information she got was still very limited.

After thinking about it, Niya said, "I'm not sure. I'll call back after I go back to Sevington to find out."

"Ah."

Then, Xia Duo saw that Niya seemed to have nothing to say, so she wanted to ask about the situation in Hawkland. After all, Aquiline was locked in the Tower of Time. It would be a lie to say that Xia Duo was not worried at all.

Even though it is now known that Niya has really become a student of the princess, there are still some people who are irrational.

It is true that mages tend to be rational, but human nature is complicated after all. Xia Duo does not think that someone can maintain absolute rationality. If that is the case, people cannot be called human beings.

"Niya—"

"correct--"

Almost at the same time, Niya also spoke, so the two of them were stunned at the same time, Xia Duo looked at Nya calmly, "You talk first!"

"You—" Niya was a little hesitant, but she still asked, "Is the situation with the Great Xia leader going well?"

"It's going well!" Xia Duo thought that Niya wanted to ask about the situation of the element channel, so he continued, "Over there, the three arcanists from [Hidden Hand] have agreed to use spells to help open the river, and contact The other four arcanists, if there are no accidents, the work should be completed before the autumn harvest."

"Ah!" Niya was a little surprised, but also a little happy. She didn't expect that it was just a planned element channel not long ago, and now it will be completed soon.

However, this is not what she wanted to ask just now, "Xia Duo, what I want to ask is the development of the Great Xia Territory!"

"The development of the Great Xia Territory?"

Although it was a little strange why Niya asked this on purpose, Xia Duo had nothing to hide, so he said, "The development is going smoothly. With the 200 households you dialed over, the speed has been greatly improved. The first phase of Linshui Village It has already been completed, but it is time-consuming to continue to open up farmland, and it is estimated that it will not be able to catch up with this year's autumn sowing."

"In terms of development, you have to pay more attention. At the end of the year, the teacher may come to make inspections. If you perform well, the teacher may reward you."

Regarding this topic, Niya didn't go into too much depth, but just mentioned it a little bit, and then said another thing, "After a while, the teacher will send someone to take that elf mage away."

"Elf mage?"

Xia Duo immediately thought of the one imprisoned in the Tower of Time. Originally, he was thinking about when he would have the ability to torture and get some secrets from that elf mage, but now——

"I understand, and I will receive it personally when the time comes."

"Hmm." Seeing that Xia Duo agreed so quickly, Niya felt a little depressed. She was actually unwilling to hand over the elf mage.

This elf mage had a lot to do with his father's curse, and Niya never thought of letting him go.

But some time ago, a group of elven refugees came to Severton and sought asylum from the teacher. The teacher agreed, but what she didn't expect was that those elven refugees were related to the elven mage imprisoned in the Tower of Time.

And the teacher's request, she could not refuse.At that moment, Niya regretted not killing the elf mage directly.

Xia Duo felt the subtle change in Niya's mood, so he wanted to change the subject, and at the same time asked the question he wanted to ask before.

"Niya, will there be any repetitions at Hawke's side?"

Hearing Xia Duo's question, Niya also regained her composure, "I'm not sure, but Archmage Auron has been appointed by the Austrian Law Federation to lead an investigation team to Hawke to investigate the assassination incident. This matter will not happen in a short time. As a result, if there is any news, I will know as soon as possible, so you don't have to worry too much."

"Yeah." Xia Duo nodded, feeling really relieved.

He had the experience of raiding Aquiline, and he was actually afraid that others would do this to him, but it was unrealistic to hide in the Mage Tower all the time, and now Niya could be regarded as bringing him good news.

However, no matter how good the news is, it is impossible to absolutely guarantee safety, it just improves the sense of security.The vigilance and preparation that should be there are still indispensable.
