Lord of Arcane

Chapter 443 The Secret of Projection Element Summoning
Xia Duo was very interested in the murloc tribe introduced by Eberke. Up to now, he has not seen any intelligent life other than humans and elves that can cast spells!

Even though they were just uncivilized murlocs, their bloodline spells were enough to show their extraordinaryness.

"How is the strength of those murlocs?" Xia Duo asked, pointing to Oshima above his head, as if he felt that it was inconvenient to speak like this, so he adjusted his body direction so that his body was parallel to the ground of Oshima.

There is no obvious direction of gravity in the Azurite Plane. If you ignore the water body, it can almost be regarded as a weightless space. Now that Xia Duo has adjusted his posture, the big island is like an extremely huge wall standing in front of him.

Eberke also adjusted his posture following Xia Duo, facing Oshima, and gave his answer, "The strength of the murlocs is about the same as that of humans, and they are extremely flexible in the water, but even counting their blood spells, they are not threatening. To you and me."

Xia Duo nodded. He had no doubts about the survivability of high-ranking mages, but it was necessary to be cautious when facing an unknown magic race.

Moreover, until now it was Eberke who said that he also wanted to see the situation on the island with his own eyes. If it was on the main plane, if it was on land, he would either go there in person or cast scrying spells. Remote peeping is fine.

But in the blue crystal plane, invisibility is directly ruled out. Invisibility is only invisible visually, but the human body will not disappear. The disturbance of the water body after invisibility still exists. .

As for scouting, Xia Duo is not yet an arcanist, and needs to adjust the normal scouting spells to a version suitable for the blue crystal plane, which will take time.

Of course, you can also use the bloodline ability to turn into water and go directly there, but there is such a big living person as Eberke here, why does Xia Duo need to do it himself!

"Eboke, please cast the detection spell, I want to see the situation on the island."

"it is good!"

Eberke was very straightforward. Since he was in the water, he didn’t need an additional imaging device, and he could just project it directly into the water body. Soon Xia Duo saw the scene on the island——

At the beginning, it was a large area of ​​seaweed, kelp and other plants, and there were small biological activities such as swimming fish, crabs, and shells in the middle. When the perspective was zoomed out, it was even greener, like a forest on the main plane.

Xia Duo can directly see with the naked eye that there are mainly two "forests" on the island, distributed at both ends of the long island, with some blank areas in the middle.

At first, Xia Duo saw something moving in this area, but through the projection of the detection spell, Xia Duo clearly saw a large number of murlocs fighting here.

It's really a murloc with fish lips, fish eyes, and arms and legs!
At the beginning of Xia Duo's crossing, when he was still in the Old Neil Hotel, he often heard people talking about someone killing a murloc, but he had never seen such a creature.

It's not that they doubt the existence of murlocs. They've seen elves, goblins, and trolls, so there's nothing to doubt. It's just that there are no murlocs around Savile Land.

Seeing it now, it's really quite novel.

And these murlocs that are fighting are mainly composed of two parties, which should be the two hostile tribes mentioned by Eberke before. One of them has green skin, dark back and light belly, while the other is silver. The skin, getting darker as you go down, finally turns silvery blue.

Although the appearance and color of these two murlocs are different, their body structure is roughly the same, both are smooth, but scales gradually grow as they go down.

Even if their color is ignored, it is easy to be regarded as a species.

Of course, this may just be Xia Duo's view as a human being. Perhaps in the eyes of murlocs, humans, elves, and even orcs are also the same species!
The fight between these murlocs is nothing more than a fight between primitive people. They don't even have regular weapons. The better ones are sharp blades made from shells. The edge of the stone went into battle.

What interested Xia Duo was the large elemental creatures mixed in the murlocs. They fought each other, and occasionally released spells to restrain the hostile murlocs, making it easier for their summoners to attack. At the same time, they did not forget to purify the creatures A water body polluted by murloc blood and stirring silt.

It is precisely because of this purification feature that Xia Duo can distinguish them from the environmental water body. Of course, it is also this feature that prevents this rather large-scale fight from making the environment even more turbid.

Seeing this feature, Xia Duo remembered the [Pure Water Ball] he had once summoned. The fist-sized water element also has the feature of purifying water, and it is completely different in the Wolfburg River.

Thinking of the little water elemental he summoned, and seeing the obviously huge water elemental summoned by the murloc in the projection, Xia Duo was a little greedy.

If you keep a team of water elements in the river between Savile Town and Linshui Village, they may be able to act as fully automatic free crew members.

However, the essence of elemental creatures does not belong to the material world after all. If you want to summon them, you must maintain their existence by the caster, unless you can obtain the essence of elemental creatures and bring them back to the main plane, and then it will be a long-term labor.

"These murlocs may have a solution!" Xia Duo was overjoyed.

Xia Duo really didn't want to believe that these murlocs relied entirely on their own bloodline ability to summon large elemental creatures and could sustain long-term battles.

Doesn't it seem that his bloodline is too useless, and there is another problem, even if it is the bloodline ability, it is not necessarily possible to summon elemental creatures from the elemental plane.

It also needs the response of elemental creatures. The essence of people is in the elemental plane, and the caster can't threaten them. How can they be obedient and projected into the material world!

When the arcanist of [Hidden Hand] was constructing the element channel, he once summoned the earth element to help. At that time, he wanted to learn, but was rejected.

Now, these murlocs are likely to have mastered the method of communicating with the water element, reaching an agreement, and even summoning its essence to the material world to maintain long-term drive. How could Xia Duo not be moved!

Just seeing this, Xia Duo knew that the Azurite Plane had great potential to be tapped, and this trip was well worth it!
……

The projection was still going on, and the perspective traveled several times from the battlefield where the two murlocs were fighting, but none of the nearly a hundred murlocs present could notice it. All immersed in the emotion of killing.

Eberke didn't stay on this battlefield for too long. The projection angle turned in one direction, passed over the "forest" on the island, and flew towards a section of the island.

Soon, Xia Duo saw the murloc settlements hidden at the bottom of the seaweed and kelp. Unlike the human settlements, the murloc settlements were relatively scattered even though they tended to be concentrated.

It seems that a relatively centralized ruling rule has not been formed here.

Similar to humans planting crops, these murlocs also plant "crops". In addition to plants that are almost all over the island, there are fish schools, shellfish farms, and crab nests.

What surprised Xia Duo was that even if there were no restrictions such as blocking nets, the fish schools raised by the murlocs obediently stayed in the restricted area and rarely escaped.

It's a bit like having birds in completely unrestricted airspace and not knowing how they do it.
