Lord of Arcane

Chapter 513 Bloodline Curse

"Go to the side and talk!"

The three of them are stuck here, and more and more people are paying attention. Although there may not be any bad things, but there will be no good things. Xia Duo called this middle-aged bearded man, and went with Niya Walk to the edge of the arena.

The bust of the caster, one person tall, can barely block one side of the line of sight. Xia Duo has already made a gesture that does not want to attract attention. Among the onlookers, except for a very few who are still looking at this side, most of the others have turned away Sight, looked elsewhere.

Casting the [Soundproof Barrier] as usual, Xia Duo looked at the middle-aged bearded man: "Don't tell me, the spell book is on you."

According to what the other party said, what he wanted to sell was a real spell book, so at least the spell book made by a high-level mage must be a magic item, but Xia Duo didn't see any magical aura on him.

If the other party really said that the spell book was on him, he was definitely a liar, and Xia Duo would show him the result of deceiving himself!
"My lord, why would I carry such a treasure as a spell book with me! Besides, there are so many people here, how many pickpockets there are!" The middle-aged bearded man looked around and said cautiously.

"Then how many gold coins do you want for this spell book?"

"This, this—" The middle-aged bearded man rubbed his hands and said nothing, but glanced at Niya.

Niya frowned, and said for the first time, "Do you have any spell books, and if so, tell us the price! Don't waste our time!"

"My lords, my two lords!" The middle-aged bearded face showed a trace of panic, and he quickly told the truth, "The spell book is at my house, but I don't want gold coins."

"No gold coins? Then what do you want?" Xia Duo asked.

"I want to ask my lord to save my son!"

The middle-aged bearded man glanced at Xia Duo, and then turned his gaze to Niya, his eyes were full of anticipation. If it wasn't for the inappropriate location, he would even kneel down and plead sincerely.

"Tell me the specific situation! Where did the spell book come from? What happened to your son? Why did you come to us?"

At this time, Xia Duo has realized that this guy is definitely looking for them specifically. Although it is not possible to plan in advance and wait for them here, it is not that there are no other mages here except him and Niya, but the other party only stops them. , must be selective.

And asking a mage to save someone is a little unreliable no matter how you look at it!
"My lord, the spell book was left by the ancestors and passed down from generation to generation. It is absolutely true."

"I can't see that you are still a descendant of a high-level mage, how did you become like this?" Of course, Xia Duo didn't really want the other party to answer this question, but just complained, and then asked: "Then what's the matter with your son?"

"My son suddenly fell ill some time ago and became very weak. He couldn't get out of bed until now. I—" Speaking of his son, the middle-aged bearded man burst into tears.

His son has been very smart since he was a child, and he is about to grow up. The whole family's hope is pinned on him. Now he falls ill and may even die at any time. How can this not make people feel sad!
Xia Duo shook his head secretly, and asked, "Why do you seek a mage when you are sick? Didn't you go to the temple?"

The temple of Netheril sometimes also works as a hospital. Under normal circumstances, common diseases can be cured. Basically, if the temple cannot be cured, the mage will not be more hopeful.

The middle-aged bearded man wiped his tears and adjusted his emotions, "My lord, the priest of the temple said that my son has been cursed by the bloodline. If you want to get rid of it, you have to find the bishop, but my family has no money, and I have no contact with the bishop." I came here this time just to try my luck, hoping to meet someone who can save my son."

Xia Duo understood, their feelings are not the first target!How could someone with the identity of a bishop come to the arena to watch the game alone without any guards!
Even if you encounter and stop it, it may not be a good thing.

"Then you stopped us? How do you know if we can save your son?" Before the arena was open, Xia Duo didn't mind saying a few more words.

"Also, there are quite a few mages here, why did they find us?"

"My lord, my son is about to die. The people from the temple didn't come, so I can only find the mage. As for why no one else is involved—" At this point, the middle-aged bearded man looked at Niya again.

This time, Xia Duo also noticed something was wrong, "You know my companion?"

"I don't know, but I recognize the emblem of the Giles Tower. I stayed here before dawn today, and only found a mage from the Giles Tower."

Xia Duo immediately sent a message to Niya's spell, "No one from Gilles Tower came to watch the game?"

"They teleport directly into the arena." Niya replied.

"then you--"

"Didn't we make an appointment to come here together?"

"..."

Well, if it wasn't for meeting this middle-aged bearded man and Niya didn't say anything, Xia Duo probably would have found it hard to know that Nya was accommodating him.

The three of them were talking, when there was a sudden confusion at the entrance of the arena. It turned out that the entrance was opened, and the middle-aged bearded man became even more anxious. He looked at Xia Duo, and then at Niya, "My lords— —”

"After the arcane competition, we will go to your house to read the spell books." Xia Duo stopped Niya who was about to speak, and said first.

I didn’t see the goods, so of course the deal wasn’t concluded, and Xia Duo also emphasized one point, “If the spell book is real, then I can try to save your son, but I don’t guarantee success. Be mentally prepared, or you'll find someone else!"

As he spoke, Xia Duo left his own secret imprint on the back of the middle-aged bearded hand, and without waiting for him to continue speaking, he directly pulled Niya towards the entrance.

……

Today, Xia Duo'aohuo is connected to the magic net at any time, and he is far more sensitive to the magic net than before. As soon as he entered the arena, he noticed that the surrounding environment of the magic net was different.

It seems that it has been refactored and has become more orderly, with a feeling of mystery.

But Xia Duo has personally experienced the mythos, including the normal state of the projected plane, and the silent mythos at the beginning of the elven ruins in the Green Pearl Forest. The magic net environment here is still quite different from the mythos.

But even so, this reconstructed and highly ordered environment of the magic net still made Xia Duo full of awe, which is something that the current him cannot do no matter what!
……

After actually entering the arena, Xia Duo realized that there were so many people around outside, but in fact very few people came in, not even one-tenth of them, most of them were spellcasters.

One inside and one outside, like two worlds, the outside is the noisy world of ordinary people, and the inside is the deserted world of spellcasters.
