Lord of Arcane

Chapter 819
After a while, Marucis's magic imprint stopped moving, but then a familiar voice came out of nothingness and reached Xiaduo's ears:

"Brandon, I've already negotiated with Mage Thorne. If you help him complete a mission, he will give you some guidance on magic. When you return to the ground, I will give you another reward!"

Afterwards, all the visions disappeared, and only the golden elf mage was watching him silently. Xia Duo secretly thought it was troublesome, but he also knew that he could not refuse.

Fortunately, Marucis won him a chance to guide him, so at least it is not a loss, Xia Duo can only comfort himself in this way now.

After adjusting his mood a little, he said calmly, "I have received a message from the mistress. May I ask Your Excellency Thorne, what are your orders?"

"Soon, a group of envoys from the Kingdom of Akola will pass by here, and I want you to kill them all!"

"what?!"

Xia Duo never expected to hear the name of the Akola Kingdom here. In the era of the main plane, the Akola Kingdom had already closed its territory.

Closed in the true sense, the Riestal Forest is covered with mystic locks, and it hardly communicates with the outside world.

But even in the era of the projection plane, the Akola Kingdom was still active, but they were in the east, and there was still a large area between them and Sluvand, and there was no border between the two countries at all!
What kind of enmity, what kind of resentment, made Thorn, the high mage of the Sruvand Kingdom, insist on intercepting the family's envoy?
In just such a moment, Xia Duo realized that there must be many conspiracies in it. Of course, no matter what the conspiracies were, he had nothing to do with him. He had already decided to return to the main plane directly after collecting Thorne's "wool".

With such a ready-made high-level golden elf mage by his side, those ordinary golden elf mages who were originally reserved by him for training were no longer in his eyes.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo felt that this trip to the projection plane might really be worthwhile.

Of course, the premise is that the other party is willing to communicate with him. No matter how well Marucis said, he is still in the Underdark Region at this moment. If Thorn refuses to admit it, then he has nothing to do.

"Your Excellency Thorne, I am willing to serve you. Also, the mistress just mentioned that I can get some advice from you?"

"That's right, you were by my side before the action, and I just want to ask you some questions."

"Ok?"

Xia Duo was a little puzzled, but then he thought that if there was anything in him worthy of the attention of a high-level mage, except for blood, it would probably be Nether magic, which is completely different from elf magic.

Generally speaking, even a slightly powerful mage wouldn't care too much about blood, let alone a high-ranking mage.

After all, what bloodlines can do, magic can also do it, but conversely, what magic can do, bloodlines may not be able to do it.

Only the color-resistant magic that he brought from the main plane, he used the color-resistant magic in the chase before, not the drow magic that is the same as the elf magic.

Perhaps this is also the reason why Thorn wanted to let him go even though he was able to catch him quickly.

Maybe I just want to see this kind of magic system that is different from the current mainstream.

In the current projected plane, the [Natherian Scroll] is still hidden. Even if it is discovered, it may not be possible to research the magic system exactly the same as the main plane Netheril.

In other words, in the current projected plane, Xia Duo's magic may be so unique.

Thinking about it this way, Xia Duo suddenly felt that he should be sure to get the wool from Thorne. As for whether the secret was leaked, he didn't care at all.

Not to mention that this is the projection plane, even if it is the main plane, don't elves really understand Nai color magic at all?
It's impossible to think about it, especially Cormanthor, who is very hostile to Netheril. Even if they look down on humans, are they really not curious about the source of the great arcanist's power?

As long as the brain is normal, even if you don't go to study, you have to come over and have a look before you talk.

If you look at it as a whole, it is always a rational part. It is almost inevitable that Nether magic is known to the elves.

……

Now that he has the bottom line in his heart, Xia Duo is no longer polite when facing Thorne. Except for some questions encountered in the process of escaping before, he will ask any other questions he wants to ask without hesitation.

"Your Excellency Thorne, I heard that there are other planes besides the one we are in now? Have you ever been to a different plane?"

This is something that Xia Duo has always been curious about, whether the projection plane can continue to project, or something different.

On the projection plane of the Arcane Empire, the Arcane Empire may have been influenced by visitors from the main plane, but it has not developed to explore the plane, or there may be, but he cannot touch it.

Now, I finally have the opportunity to ask a high-level executive of the projection plane, which may be able to solve a question he has had for a long time.

However, his frequent inquiries finally annoyed Thorne. Instead of answering his questions, he continued to complain:
"Why do you have so many questions! It doesn't look like a long-lived species! You remind me of a creature called a human!

"They are always so impatient to ask questions, and start to do it in a hurry before they fully understand; or they are eager to know the truth behind something, but ignore the danger in the process."

At the end, Thorne concluded with emotion, "I'm really impatient, what a group of poor short-lived species!"

"..."

Xia Duo blinked his eyes, not knowing what to say, can he say that he is a human being?

"By the way, you are drow. I heard that the underground world is very competitive, so it's easy to understand." Thorn suddenly realized.

Getting along these few days, he almost forgot that it was a drow who was caught by him, but when he realized this, his tone suddenly became a little colder:
"Maybe you will become a great mage in the future, but now, you should think about the next mission! The target is not just an elite mage. If you miss, don't expect me to save you!"

"Your Excellency Thorne, please rest assured, I am absolutely sure to complete the task!" Xia Duo said confidently.

Even if the goal is a hundred high-level mages, he is full of confidence, after all, he is really ready to do this task.

Perhaps in Thorne's eyes, he has no other choice but to complete the task, but Xia Duo knows that he can return to the main plane at any time as long as he wants.

Just leave the chicken feathers on the projection plane, so what is he doing!

Faced with Xia Duo's confident words, Thorne was dubious, but he still "hummed", "Is it just based on your simple and crude spells?"

"Of course not, Lord Thorne will know when the time comes."

Xia Duo made a fool of himself.
