Lord of Arcane

Chapter 719 Hope Painting
After the trip to Rodney Land was over, Xia Duo let go of some worries, and only waited for Rodney Land's ship to arrive to pick up the Rodney Land residents from the east. This matter will be fully understood.

Back at the residence, Xia Duo opened the planning note, crossed out the line "Rodney led the trip", turned it to the back, stared at it for a while, then closed the note, and went to bed with peace of mind.

When he woke up again, it was already late at night. Xia Duo was walking in the Tower of Time, and the surroundings were quiet. It was no longer the scene where apprentices would come out and scurry around even in the middle of the night.

The current Tower of Time apprentices are considered apprentices in the true sense, and the courses are arranged almost slowly from morning to night, without giving them any room to breathe.

Becoming an official mage in three years is the bottom line Xia Duo gave them, and it is also the bottom line for their future life. Once they fail to complete their studies, they will immediately bear a large debt even for an official mage.

In such a situation, how could they not study hard!

Of course, the more important factor is actually hope. With the hope of stability, you can fight hard, not like in the past, you can only rely on luck or financial resources to become an official mage.

Through the projection of the tower spirit, looking at the apprentices sleeping peacefully one by one, Xia Duo also seemed to see hope, which was the hope bred by magic civilization.

Soon Xia Duo came to the public floor. As soon as he got out of the elevator, there was a flash of inspiration around him, and the pretty person who had just left during the day reappeared.

It was already late at night, and Niya seemed to be still in good spirits, she took the initiative to lean against Xia Duo, and said with a little surprise: "You're awake!"

"Ah."

Xia Duo nodded slightly, and continued to walk towards his destination, while Niya followed without asking any questions. After walking a few steps, he found that Nya couldn't help yawning, but quickly moved his hands Cover your mouth.

So, Xia Duo stopped, looked at Niya, turned her head all the time, and then said reproachfully: "Why haven't you rested until now!"

Niya lowered her head and whispered, "I contacted the teacher before."

"Ok?"

"The teacher said you did a good job, then I checked my study assignments, and I—"

The voice behind was getting smaller and smaller, even Xia Duo could not hear it, but he could guess the general idea, it was just that the task was not completed and he stayed up late at night.

To be honest, Xia Duo really envied Niya for having a teacher who arranged her study plan and urged her from time to time.

But envy is also not envious. Fortunately, as long as Niya's study plan does not involve the secrets of Gilles Tower, she will share it with him, so Xia Duo doesn't care if she has such a teacher.

Of course, if there is, Xia Duo will not refuse.

Seeing that Niya still didn't want to leave, Xia Duo stepped forward, hugged her gently, and said softly: "I'm going to the town to find Broto, it's not important, you don't have to follow me, Go back and rest!"

"Oh."

After receiving Niya's sure answer, Xia Duo let her go, watched her teleport away from the public floor, and then continued to walk towards the teleportation room.

It's definitely not an illusion. After Xia Duo discovered this incident, Niya became attached to him a lot, which made him both a little happy and a little resistant.

All kinds of emotions are endless.

……

Arriving in Savile Town, Xia Duo went straight to Broto's blacksmith shop in the southern region. Most people would fall asleep at this late hour, but Broto is not an ordinary person, he is a dwarf who is addicted to alcohol.

Basically, he drank and fell asleep, woke up and drank again. For Broto, there is no real distinction between day and night.

Asleep is night, awake is day.

In fact, for Xia Duo today, day and night are just an extension of past habits. He who also has dark vision can completely treat night as day, or simply not distinguish it.

When Xia Duo came to the door, Broto seemed to have just woken up, speaking in an indistinct dwarven dialect, standing in the corner outside the house, about to untie his pants.

Xia Duo didn't want to see the next scene, and quickly shouted: "Bluoto!"

The dwarf woke up instantly with a jolt. At the same time, a familiar black hammer crashed through the wall of the house and flew into Broto's hand.

When Broto saw that it was Xia Duo who came, he immediately walked towards the house without looking back.

"Uncle Broto, I need your help!"

Xia Duo quickly stepped forward to stop Broto, and at the same time took out the distilled wine prepared in advance, and forced it into the opponent's hand.

At this time, Xia Duo had already squeezed into the house with Broto.

Throwing the hammer away, Broto was about to open the wine bottle habitually. When he turned his head, he happened to see the hole in the wall just hit by the hammer. He couldn't help shaking his head again and again, and said angrily:

"I knew it would be bad if you came looking for me so late!"

After finishing speaking, he took a big gulp for himself, looked at Xia Duo reeking of alcohol, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"hey-hey!"

Xia Duo took out a few bottles of distilled wine from his portable space again, and put them on the anvil beside him, "I haven't thanked you for the dragon boots last time!"

Today, dragon leather boots are worn on Xia Duo's feet, and they fit comfortably. As the saying goes, "Don't forget the shoemaker when you wear boots." How can such a decent young man as Xia Duo forget Broto!

"Don't thank me, I'll share it too! Tell me what's going on this time! You mages just have too many things to do!"

In this way, Xia Duo said directly, "I want to ask Uncle Broto to help me find a paint that can exist stably on the surface of pure gold for a long time. The color is preferably silvery white or light gray."

"Adamantine? Paint?"

Broto looked Xia Duo up and down, and finally set his eyes on Xia Duo's waist, and made a sound of tut, "This is the first time I have seen an adamantine spell book!"

"Is there any?"

"Yes! But—"

"But what?"

"But not with me!"

Xia Duo couldn't help but want to roll his eyes, doesn't that mean talking for nothing! "So, where can I find that kind of paint? Don't tell me that I can only find it in the Kingdom of Danzo!"

"Haha! Don't worry, if there are no accidents, you will have it yourself!"

"Me? Myself?" Xia Duo obviously didn't believe it, but he also wanted to hear Broto's explanation.

Broto gulped down a few more sips of wine, heaved a sigh of relief, and then continued: "I heard that a drow assassin came to the north some time ago?"

"How do you know?" Xia Duo asked subconsciously.

However, he quickly realized that even if only the elves were present at the time when the drow assassins did something as big as the elf body art, there would always be rumors.

"Yes, there is indeed a drow assassin!"

"Then he should have been dealt with by you, right? In my impression, drow assassins don't have the habit of shooting only once."

"It has indeed been resolved, and it was caught by Eberke."

There is nothing to hide about this matter, and at the same time Xia Duo probably guessed what Broto meant by the paint on himself.
