Lord of Arcane

Chapter 993 Doubt the Director
Quickly skipping this topic, Xia Duo asked Niya while operating the communication circle: "Did you contact Archmage Greta just now? She still hasn't responded?"

"Yes, no matter if I use the communication magic weapon given to me by the teacher, the communication magic weapon produced by the Tower of Time, or the communication magic circle here, I can't contact her. I have a very bad feeling!"

Niya's words made the movements of Xia Duo's hands stagnate, and the communication spell immediately fell apart when it was about to be completed. The scattered and turbulent strings of the magic net even affected the subsequent use of the communication circle.

But these are all side details. Even if Xia Duo didn't try to forcefully calm it down, time would gradually smooth it out, and it could be used again after a while.

But Niya's words made him very worried. Three days had passed since the end of the celebration, and Master Greta still couldn't be contacted. This is not a good sign!

"Have you contacted anyone else?" Xia Duo asked.

Niya has been in Sevington longer than him, and because of her status, she may have more contact channels than him.

But Niya frowned deeply at this, she nodded slightly at first, but then shook her head quickly, "I have contacted everyone who can be contacted, but no one can tell what happened in Severton, or just No reply at all."

After a pause, Niya suddenly asked quietly, "Do you think the teacher really succeeded?"

"Uh--"

Xia Duo didn't expect Niya to ask such a question. There is no doubt about the success of the princess. Even the new priest has come out, and no one will believe it if she fails!

However, the impact of this success is still very confusing.

"There is no need to doubt this. Her Royal Highness must have succeeded. It's just that she may be unable to escape because of something."

In fact, Xia Duo doubts that after becoming a god, he will not be able to intervene in the mortal world, but if this is the case, then there will be big troubles.

Success in ascension to the gods may be good for the princess personally, but it may not be a good thing for the group of people gathered around her.

There is a saying on the earth, "One emperor, one courtier". If the princess cannot exert enough influence after ascending to the gods, perhaps this will not change much for the Seven Towers as a whole.

But those who are close to the princess, even if they will not be purged by the new power holders of Gilles Tower, they will certainly not have as much authority as in the past.

Among other things, at least Xia Duo has to worry about whether the agreement he reached with Gilles High Tower on the transfer of the magic network background communication patent will continue to be implemented.

Even though most of the transfer fee has been paid, there is still the final payment that will last for at least ten years, and there is also the issue of whether the Mithril purchase certificate will take effect.

This is only about Xia Duo's side, and it involves some specific benefits. Besides, there are various hidden benefits, not to mention, which are all obtained by being a student of Princess Niya.

If Gilles High Tower undergoes a change of power, it is conceivable that the signed contract involving specific interests may continue to be performed, but it is impossible to use 100% of the hidden benefits.

After all, the new ruler will also have his own close and vassals.

However, Xia Duo's understanding of the existence of gods is too superficial after all. Now everything is just a guess. Maybe the princess is really tied down by something, rather than being unable to interfere in the mortal world.

If this is the case, then the turmoil inside the Gilles Tower may be a complete joke, and even the influence of the outside world can be easily calmed down.

Of course, this possibility is very small, otherwise, the elf god may not allow a human country to rise among a group of elf countries.

For a while, Xia Duo couldn't think of anything else, but felt that such an unknown future, although worrying, was also extremely challenging.

……

After comforting Niya for a while, and after sending her out, Xia Duo "dialed" the communication circle on the side of the Arcane Federation again:

"I am Xia Duo, a Level 4 member of the Federation, and I am applying for a communication link in the Tower of Time. I need to inquire about the training of new priests!"

In fact, it's the same if you don't reveal your identity. The Arcane Federation can tell that the communication is from the Tower of Time, but adding a level 4 member means that the messenger is at least an Arcanist, and they won't just find someone to perfunctory It's over.

In fact, after Xia Duo announced his identity, news came from the Austrian Law Federation immediately——

"Your Excellency Xia Duo, I have already forwarded your question to my superior, Archmage Blunders, and he will come to answer your question in person later, please wait a moment!"

Brunders?

Hearing this rather unfamiliar name, Xia Duo searched carefully in his mind before finding the identity information corresponding to this name.

It turned out to be the director of the Austrian Law Federation!
In theory, the Arcane Union is inclusive of all spellcasters, whether they are orthodox mages, priests of the gods, or some special spellcasters, such as bards and warlocks.

The Grand Arcanist is undoubtedly the absolute leader of the Arcane Federation, but the Arcane Federation itself is just a loose organization, and the Grand Arcanists also have their own private organizations that they can fully control.

Just like the relationship between Niya, the Tower of Time, and the Arcane Federation.

Of course, the Tower of Time is also a member of the Arcane Federation, but such organization members are only useful at specific times, such as when distributing Mithril shares or collecting patent fees.

After all, the federation is a loose organization, and it is impossible to fine-tune the management of each individual spellcaster, so it only manages to the level of the mage tower.

In other words, the Arcane Federation hardly has any direct management authority over any individual spellcaster, but can indirectly influence it by affecting the mage tower where the spellcaster is located.

And such an organization, even if it is quite loose, still needs a certain administrative organization to deal with daily affairs. It is impossible for the dozen or so great arcanists to ignore their own affairs and only manage the affairs of the federation!

The Grand Arcanist is only responsible for the manifestation of existence, as well as for negotiation and decision-making, and most of the specific affairs are carried out by a council.

And this council is undoubtedly the specific place where the Grand Arcanist and some other powerful mage towers show their will in the Arcane Federation.

For example, the follower of the princess, Archmage Auron, is a director of the Austrian Law Federation.

The other directors are either the subordinates, students, or followers of the Grand Arcanist, or close figures such as followers; or they are the spokespersons of some powerful mage towers, usually the tower owner himself.

According to Xia Duo's plan, the Tower of Time will also send people to compete for the director's seat in the future.

After all, the Arcane Federation involves a lot of interests, especially in the field of magic. Being able to control a director seat, not to mention how much benefits you can gain, at least prevent the interests that originally belonged to you from being taken away by others.
