Lord of Arcane

Chapter 648 Capture the Soul After Death
Of course, this curse is just a way of describing Xia Duo, not a magic [curse] with real power, and it has no effect on the magic net.

In fact, there should be no one in the Tower of Time who can really curse Xia Duo.

The sudden death of the drow assassin also surprised several other people in front of the drow prison on the lower floor. Even the smiles they showed because Xia Duo successfully made the drow assassin "speak" had not dissipated. Saw this scene.

Eberke immediately said, "I have removed everything that can be removed from him as much as possible before."

The ordinary prison in the Tower of Time only suppresses spells, not the actions of the imprisoned. It is basically unlikely that the drow assassin committed suicide through magic. It should be that there is a poison hidden in his body. After realizing that the secret may be leaked, he immediately committed suicide up.

Who would have thought that the drow assassin known for being "cruel" and "cunning" would commit suicide so easily. Both Xia Duo and Eberke regretted putting him in an ordinary prison.

Even if you don't enter the [Static Room], which can imprison even consciousness, at least restrict his body movements.

With little hesitation, Xia Duo immediately sent a private message to Niya, "Can the Tower of Time capture souls? I still have a lot of questions to ask!"

[Projection Plane Arcane Empire] can capture souls, and can also resurrect the dead. When Xia Duo just projected there, he encountered a surprise attack by elves in the academy, and many graduates died, but a teacher intercepted it. The souls of about ten people were sent to the [Resurrection Department] directly by the headmaster for resurrection.

After that, ten of those dead graduates actually showed up at the graduation ceremony.

As long as the time is short enough and the action is fast enough, it should be possible to intercept the soul of the drow assassin. Whether it is resurrection or direct torture of the soul, perhaps the great arcanists will have a way.

Niya, who received the summons from Xia Duo, was extremely surprised by Xia Duo's idea, because capturing souls is also a relatively taboo thing in Netheril, whether it is the Lord of Death or the Lord of Radiance, everyone The afterlife promises something.

The difference is nothing more than being in Netherland or Guanghai.

And the mages have already understood that whether it is Netherland or Guanghai, they are some kind of special plane, in the direction of the astral world, but farther away than the astral world.

Even if it is a bit illusory, it is also a kind of psychological comfort, knowing that this life is not the end, and there is an afterlife to be found.

In this case, although soul research is not an absolute taboo like a necromancer (studying negative energy is not considered a necromancer, but mass production of undead creatures is), but it is still quite taboo.

As for someone like Xia Duo who directly said that he wanted to capture the soul, Niya had never thought about it before today. After being surprised, she frowned subconsciously. In addition to being taboo about this matter, there was——

She does have a way of capturing souls.

Niya also heard the mission described by the drow assassin just now, which is to find the weak points of the leylines on the surface, so as to open more exits from the Underdark.

And the human territory mentioned by the drow assassin is very likely to be near the Savile Territory, or even in the Savile Territory, which makes Niya very disturbed.

Just after hesitating for a moment, she decided to capture the soul of the drow assassin. She must ask where the weak point of the ley line is. At the same time, there is more information about the drow, and she needs to continue to ask.

In Xia Duo's eyes, after receiving his summons, Niya was first surprised, then frowned, and then directly teleported away. Others, including Xia Duo, do not have teleportation authority on the lower floor , can only be accessed by elevators.

Just when Xia Duo thought that Niya was angry or something, Niya suddenly appeared again, holding a ruby ​​bigger than a quail egg in her hand.

But different from ordinary gemstones, this gemstone is exuding a strong magical aura in the magic vision, which is very eye-catching and cannot be ignored.

Apparently it was a powerful magic item in gem form.

Could it be used to capture souls?Xia Duo guessed in his heart.

"Leave first, I'll take care of it!"

Niya said something quickly, and before everyone could react, she sent everyone, including Xia Duo, to the public floor.

On the public floor, Xia Duo glanced at Eberke and saw that his eyes were also full of doubts, not to mention Ciore and Cecily, who seemed to have not realized that they had reached the public floor and were in a daze. It's on!
Immediately afterwards, Xia Duo and Eberke were teleported to the negative floor again, but this time, Siore and Cecily did not follow.

As soon as Xia Duo came over, he saw that Niya was holding the ruby-shaped magic item and observing it carefully in front of her eyes, but judging from her furrowed brows, the result seemed to be very unsatisfactory.

"Niya, what's the situation?" Xia Duo asked.

"Sorry, Uncle Xia Duo and Eberke, just because of the urgent time, I sent you away without notifying you." Niya put away the gem and looked at Xia Duo and Eberke.

Then he said, "Just now I tried to use [Soul-Bounding Gem], but nothing was blocked."

Niya's tone was a little low. If she had known this, she would have brought the [Soul-Holding Gem] when she locked up the drow assassin.

It's a pity that time cannot be turned back, and no one can predict all the situations. The next time we encounter such a situation, we may have to prepare in advance.

"What are you talking about? What's going on?" Abeke, who was puzzled for a long time, finally spoke.

"Uncle Eberke, it's like this. Just now Xia Duo reminded me to intercept the soul of that drow assassin, and then I went back to get the [Gem of Imprisoned Soul]. I didn't expect it to be a step too late. It's all my fault. If I had thought of it earlier Enough!"

Seeing that Niya was in a low mood, Eboke immediately comforted him: "Don't think too much, didn't I think about it too! If you want to determine where the weak point of the land leylines that may be near Savile Territory is, I will There are other ways."

"What way?" Niya immediately regained her spirits and asked hastily.

Even Xia Duo paid attention, the traces left by the drow will disappear after daytime, and they can't use the black ball detector, so what else can they do to find the weak points of the earth's veins!

Xia Duo was very interested in the method Eberke said.

However, what Abuke said next disappointed Xiaduo. He said, "I thought about it just now. The drow assassin who wanted to search for the weak points of the earth's veins most likely used the black ball sonic method." device, we can also use it to search around the territory."

Niya is very happy about this, but Xia Duo knows that it is basically impossible to find the so-called weak points of the leylines if she can only "use" it but not "analyze".

Of course, Xia Duo didn't express his point of view at this time, so as not to make Niya happy again. If there is a hope, let it go, maybe there will be a solution later!
The worst thing is to accept the status quo. Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be a tall man to support it. Xia Duo believes that it is absolutely impossible for the great arcanists to allow the drow to open the exit of the Underdark in Nether.

Busy to and fro, it was getting late, and the three of them didn't continue to discuss anything, and soon dispersed.
