Lord of Arcane

Chapter 498 Surprise Longevity
"My lord, I do have a reason to leave!"

"Oh? What's the reason?" Greta also became interested. It is obvious that the conditions for staying in the Gilles Tower are far better than those in the Tower of Time, whether it is the books in the library or spellcasters of the same level who can communicate.

Why did Lord Xiaduo still choose to leave?
"Over there in the training room, I don't have anything to teach. What they need now is more practice." Xia Duo didn't lie. Before crossing, his understanding of chess was only good, not a national player.

Even when it comes to the number of games played, he may not be as good as those ten arcanists. After all, people are eating chess now, and Xia Duo is just for entertainment.

What he can teach, apart from leading them to familiarize themselves with the rules, is some common routines, but the routines will be gone after the lecture, and the real performance on the spot still depends on the individual.

Whether there is Xia Duo now is not a big problem, and it is perfectly fine to let them train by themselves.

Of course, there is another most crucial reason, "Your Excellency Greta, I plan to become an advanced Arcanist this month!"

"What?!" Greta suddenly changed her usual indifferent attitude, her expression was very surprised, "You are going to advance to the rank of Arcanist?! You can't make up a reason to leave, right?!"

According to Xia Duo's age, it's not a big deal to be an advanced arcanist at this time. There are even arcanists who are younger than Xia Duo, and there are quite a few of them.

But the problem is, as far as Greta understands, Xia Duo has not been exposed to magic for a long time. Those who are called arcanists at a young age, who has not been exposed to magic since childhood, coupled with outstanding talent, can quickly become an adult? Advanced.

For example, Niya, although she seems to have become an arcanist in her early twenties, it takes at least four years from the age of 16 to the age of 20. What about Xia Duo?

Has it been two years since I was exposed to magic?

This really broke Greta's perception of genius in the past few decades. Is there really such a genius?Greta almost stood up in surprise, but she held back.

She kept looking at Xia Duo, almost seeing Xia Duo with fear, and then said: "I can apply for an advanced arcanist quota for you, and the advanced room in Gilles Tower should be better than before. Tower is better."

"Don't bother Your Excellency, I'd better go back to the Tower of Time." Xia Duo quickly refused.

Just kidding, he is still a little short of the advanced level now, and he went back to complete the surprise attack. If he stays in Gilles Tower, he may not be able to reach the advanced level before the end of the month.

Although Xia Duo guessed that the great sage of the arcane empire on the projected plane might have come from the main plane, it might not be a big secret that meditation is in a certain organization, and maybe even the great arcanists know about it.

But how could this kind of training method, which can almost be called a strategic level technique, be leaked from him?

If those great sages are really miracles of the projection plane, then the importance of this meditation idea is even higher, and it cannot be leaked from him.

Meditation takes a lot of time, and doing it under the noses of Gilles Tower is too eye-catching, it's better to leave.

Xia Duo repeatedly refused. Master Greta's face was a little pale, but in the end he didn't force it. He just said, "I need to ask Her Royal Highness about this matter, and I will give you an answer within two days."

The Grand Arcanist is busy with affairs, so he definitely doesn't ask for instructions right away. Xia Duo can understand this. He calculates the time and thinks that it is acceptable within two days. If it takes too long, it may be completed by the end of the month. no more.

……

In fact, the efficiency of Archmage Greta was much higher than Xia Duo imagined. Not long after he left, Greta went to see Her Royal Highness.

Not in the Tower of Gilles, but in a study in Nether Palace outside.

"Your Highness, Master Xia Duo wants to leave."

At this moment, Princess Shia is buried in the documents.

Recently, a pioneer's territory on the Kangqi Plain was breached by jackals, and he lost a lot of supplies and people, so he needs to be punished;
In addition, the dwarves asked the Seven Towers to send people to jointly clean up the underground trade passage through the Underdark region. Recently, many traces of drow have been found.

And so on.

Some things can be decided by Shia alone, some need to be discussed and decided with the Seven Towers, and some need to be discussed with the Arcane Union, and the affairs of other great arcanists are similar.

That's it, the documents have already been sorted out and pre-processed by the subordinates. If there is no help from the subordinates, she will need more time.

Hearing Greta's report, Shia didn't look up, but just asked:
"Leave? What's the reason?"

"He said that he is no longer needed in the training room. In addition, he also said that he is about to become an Arcanist and wants to return to the Tower of Time."

After Greta finished speaking, she waited quietly. She didn't understand Xia Duo's actions very much. Could it be that he couldn't advance in Gilles Tower?
At this time, Princess Shia finally stopped the work at hand. She has always been concerned about the two projects she was in charge of in the snowmelt competition. As for Xia Duo who said that he would not be needed in the training room, Shia also Basically agree.

Although the most ideal situation is definitely to let Xia Duo train until before the game, but since the training, he should have surpassed the elves in terms of chess moves. Without Xia Duo, the impact is really not big.

Perhaps more time can be freed up for targeted training in spells.

Xia Duo wanted to leave, but Princess Shia had no objection in principle. After all, he would not be able to play a decisive role if he continued to stay here. However, Xia Duo was about to advance to the rank of Arcanist, which surprised Princess Shia.

She still remembered that among the first batch of pioneers, only the three who were conferred by the Savile Territory were the least skilled in magic.

Thinking that the Tower of Time has a plane exploration circle, it even discovered a sub-plane during the Moon Festival last year. At that time, she also gave Nya a magic scroll to block the sub-plane.

Now it seems that Xia Duo's rapid advancement may be related to the projection plane, and Princess Shia has no objection to Xia Duo's desire to return to the Tower of Time to advance:

"In this case, let him go back if he wants to go back. In addition, tell him to make good use of the projection plane. Human life is limited. Don't waste a lot of life in order to quickly advance to the main plane. It's not worth it. Even if you have a special bloodline , and there is no need to squander like this.”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Hearing this sentence, Master Greta also understood Xia Duo a little bit. If you make full use of the projection plane, it is really not uncommon to advance to the main plane within two years.

But the problem is that the time elapsed on the projection plane will be superimposed on the main body in an instant when returning to the main plane, which is equivalent to shortening the lifespan.

In fact, the time it takes to advance has not shortened, and even longer because the projection plane does not have the various conditions of the main plane.

For humans with a very limited lifespan, it is not cost-effective.

However, His Highness also mentioned the special bloodline, and Greta suddenly didn't feel sorry for Xia Duo, but felt a deep envy, because people with special bloodlines would live longer than normal people.

This is different from the extension of lifespan brought about by life extension magic, which is a natural longevity, and will not die suddenly due to the failure of the spell.

"It's really good luck!"
