Lord of Arcane

Chapter 492 Correct Coping Strategies
With the matter of the Supreme Legacy, the original discussion meeting could not go on. Representatives from the Seven Towers left the venue one after another, impatient to watch the Supreme Legacy, and only Princess Shia stayed at the end.

Seeing the impatience of those great arcanists, Princess Shia couldn't help showing a wry smile. Of course, she could understand their feelings. When she herself learned about the Supreme Inheritance, she was as eager as them.

I just don't know when the next meeting will be. The snowmelt competition seems to be nearly two months away, but compared to such a big event, the time is already close at hand.

For a while, Princess Shia regretted telling about the Supreme Inheritance, not because of hiding her own interests, but because she should find a better time.

……

Daxialing, Linshui Village.

On this day, Xia Duo, who had just been idle for a few days, suddenly received a reminder from Ta Ling. At first, he thought it was the discovery of a new projected plane or sub-plane, or that the task of using the limit test of the communication magic weapon he released was over. up.

But I didn't expect that the news from Niya was reposted, and the news from Niya was also reposted. It was from Princess Shia, Nya's teacher, to the effect that she was asking for advice from the caster who belonged to the Tower of Gilles. An arcane competition plan for the competitiveness of human mages.

After receiving this news, Xia Duo immediately knew that there was a change in this year's arcane competition, but after thinking about it, there is an extra Comanzo, and the Three Kingdoms melee, can there be no change?
"An arcane competition that can reflect the competitiveness of human mages?"

Xia Duo couldn't help but think about it. I don't know if the Big Eater Competition counts. With the elves' arrogant attitude, they definitely don't want to perform in front of the public, and they still perform for humans.

Judging from Xia Duo's experience of projecting elves twice, as long as any elf performs, it is basically regarded as socially dead in the elf world, and a long lifespan will bring longer jokes.

Even with magic, they can eat elegantly, but they still can't escape the title of "big eater". No matter how messy and bad the elves are in private, they will not tolerate any stain on themselves in public.

If the Big Eater Competition is really held, maybe there are no elf players at all. In a sense, participation itself is a stain.

Of course, on the other hand, Master Nether may not be able to perform these in public, but compared to elves, humans should be more acceptable.

Not only must stand on the point of arcane competition, but also reflect the competitiveness of human mages. In the final analysis, there is still insufficient hard power, and they want to go astray.

However, Xiaduo agrees with this very much. Regardless of whether a cat is black or white, it is a good cat if it can catch mice. Since Netheril needs to win the arcane competition, it is also necessary to play some tricks.

Even this is not called "playing tricks" at all, but should be called "correct coping strategy".

Since Comanthor forcibly joined the original competition between the two countries, it turned the relatively peaceful arcane competition between the two countries into a melee among the three countries, which is not glorious in itself.

There is not much morality to speak of between countries, let alone races.Everything is based on interests, either short-term or long-term.

Xia Duo has seen too much on Earth, but he has not yet thought of the new arcane competition project that the princess wants. The lack of magic power is similar to the lack of technological power on Earth.

But the magic here is often associated with the individual, and the method of relying on human will to surpass technology on earth is very difficult to work here.

In addition, when technology reaches a certain level, it can ignore human will. The same is true for magic, and the threshold is lower.

Netheril may have some deterrent power at the high-end level, but it does not actually have an advantage in conventional arcane competitions. Perhaps the short lifespan and fast update iterations are the biggest advantages of humans compared to elves.

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Duo gave up. He didn't want to worry about this kind of thing. The feeling of not being able to figure out what to ask for is the most uncomfortable feeling.

After all, it is necessary to consider the differences between humans and elves. Only differentiated competition can gain some advantages.

Maybe if you don't think about it, the inspiration will come automatically.

In the following days, Xia Duo really didn't deliberately think about the arcane competition, but just focused on his own plan - meditating in the morning, doing some simple spell exercises in the afternoon, and waiting for the results from the Tower of Time.

Whether it is the result of the plane exploration array or the result of the test task.

……

In such fulfilling and leisurely days, time passed by little by little, and soon came the end of March.

The warm and humid air from the south seems to have arrived earlier than in previous years. Although there is still a whole month before the snowmelt moon, Xia Duo saw traces of snowmelt in Linshui Village.

The frozen land is also thawing, and everything seems to be developing for the better. The people of Daxia Territory have begun to get busy, and are no longer limited to the work in Linshui Village.

Taking advantage of the fact that the forest has not yet awakened, Xia Duo ordered to intensify the logging efforts, and even ordered people to burn the trimmed twigs on the land to be leveled in the future, artificially accelerating the process of thawing the land.

As for the new projects of the arcane competition, Xia Duo learned from the communication with Niya that the mages of Severton had put forward many ridiculous proposals.

Among them was the Big Eater Competition that Xia Duo had thought of. Of course, this plan must have been killed immediately.This kind of plan is not to mention being used to compete with elves, even the great arcanist himself can't say it.

In addition to this, there are weightlifting, high jump, long jump and so on. The magic factor is too little, and it is more inclined to performance rather than competition.

For this reason, Ambassador Cormanthor, who was informed of the news, even made a mockery, saying that the Nethers were barbarians who only knew how to play with their muscles, and asked the Nethers to compete with the Langas for eating and lifting weights.

They put together the [true barbarians] in the eyes of the Nethers and the Langas. Of course the Nether mages are all angry, and the Seven Towers strictly limit that it must be an arcane competition. .

This makes the design of new projects more difficult.

So, in what areas can the Netherese surpass the elves?
The constant acquaintance with Niya allowed Xia Duo to learn about the latest situation of Severton, which naturally included various wonderful ideas of Nether mages, so an idea gradually took shape in Xia Duo's mind.

However, the details need to be adjusted according to the actual situation of the magical world. Xia Duo is sure that if his plan is adopted, the chances of Netheril's victory will be greatly increased.
