Arcane Lord

Latest URL: After discovering this situation, Xia Duo immediately synchronized it to other investigators, and other investigators also made new discoveries—

"There was a battle inside the Silver Spire, which caused serious damage to the tower. It is suspected that some spellcasters escaped."

"The city guards have almost mutinied collectively, and are driving out people in various urban areas and conducting searches."

"The blockade is completely formed, and it is no longer visible to the outside world."

…

Based on a lot of information, Xia Duo made suggestions to other investigators through Dum, "Paris has not fully controlled the situation in the city yet, it is time for us to reveal our identities, especially the envoy Ryan, we need your name and token .”

"No problem, what does Director Doom want to do?"

It would be great for Ryan to have someone take the initiative to take responsibility. After all, he has completely lost control of the current situation. Once he loses his status as an envoy, he is just an ordinary attendant of the Crown King.

And in Metril, if he does not rely on the Northern Alliance investigation team, his emissary status is worthless.

Dum confirmed the information with Xiaduo again, and then answered Dum's question: "I will project the image of Ryan's envoy and tokens over the city, and guide the casters who are suspected of escaping from the Silver Spire to come to meet them.

"As for the others, continue to investigate the situation in the city, and at the same time remain vigilant, ready to respond to surprise attacks from the city guards and even Paris."

Ryan had no objection to this, but a senior mage from Cormanthor frowned, "Guide the spellcasters who escaped from the Silver Spire to join them? Is this too risky?"

"Is our current location really a secret to Paris? To be honest, I would rather Paris come over. We have so many top spellcasters here. Although they are not specialized in combat, it is not a mere Paris who can Resist." Doom retorted without hesitation.

Paris, who had shown the form of a saint in front of the Silver Spire before, was undoubtedly a high-level mage, but they had more than one high-level mage here, and the other elves were at least senior mages.

That is to say, I didn't think of taking Paris directly before, otherwise Paris wouldn't be arrogant.

What Dum and Shadow are most worried about now is that Paris is hiding behind the scenes, manipulating the mythos against them, and they don't know how many accomplices the other party has. This is the most difficult thing to deal with.

After arranging the next action, Xia Duo privately sent a private message to Dum, "I have already informed Badigal of the situation here through a special communication method. I think he has already contacted Ye Erlan, and support will be here soon. And even without support, I can take you away with full confidence."

"Then why doesn't Lord Xiaduo leave now?" Doom was puzzled by this.

Xia Duo didn't hide anything, and told Dum directly, "I want to know whether there is any connection between Paris and the devil, and what he wants to do to block Metril!"

To say that Paris is dissatisfied with King Helian and the Council of Elders Gaoshu, and wants to form a clique to achieve independence or overthrow the current regime, Xia Duo is 100% unconvinced.

He seriously suspected that what the other party wanted to do was the prophesied fog event, and it was almost at this time, so there was no way to prevent him from associating it.

And the fog event will almost certainly lead to the next sudden climate change. If it can be avoided, Xia Duo still hopes to avoid it as much as possible.

Although there is no fog event, it may lead to a full-scale war, but after all, he has not seen any possibility of a full-scale war breaking out, so he first finds a way to avoid the more likely bad things.

It's kind of like Tram Difficulty on Earth, just a little bit different.

If we say that the possibility of the fog event is 60%, and the fog event will almost 100% lead to sudden climate change, in contrast, the possibility of an all-out war now, in Xia Duo's opinion, is less than 1%!

It is impossible to make a judgment on how to choose. Xia Duo chose to eliminate the fog event and the subsequent sudden climate change as much as possible. If doing so led to an all-out war, then he would admit it.

A long time ago, he began to prepare for the crisis of annihilation on the main plane. If a full-scale war really broke out, he would first retreat to the blue crystal plane with all the citizens.

Then the main plane should be beaten and killed, and the worst case is to smash the whole world. In that case, is there any good result for the party who initiates the war?

Others Xia Duo can't guarantee that, anyway, whoever dares to provoke a full-scale war, he will definitely do everything possible to destroy the other party.

That is to say, he hasn't found a large and livable plane where he can emigrate safely, otherwise he would not want to stay in this troublesome main plane.

…

Soon, the image of Ryan's envoy appeared in the sky above Metril City, as well as his real-time introduction of his identity. With the help of spells, the passionate voice spread throughout the city—

"Citizens of Yeerland in Metril City, Paris has betrayed this country and you who have trusted me. Now, in the name of King Helien and the emissary of the Council of Elders of the High Trees, I declare that Metril City has entered an emergency. state!"

The city's state of emergency in Yereland allows city residents to enter nearby places with high protection measures such as libraries, and grants residents the right to organize rescue, defense and even counterattack by themselves.

In other words, once the city enters a state of emergency, Paris, who has betrayed the country and the city, will face the scene of all the people becoming soldiers. Even if he is a high mage, it is impossible to completely ignore the rebels in the entire city.

Almost minutes after Ryan declared the state of emergency, a weary-faced, poorly dressed elf mage arrived at the city garden where Shadow and other investigators were.

"I want to see the envoy Ryan!"

"Are you Dax, the chief mage of Metril City?"

The Ilfaran elf investigator in charge of security asked with some uncertainty. Although he knew the image of some high-level officials in Metril City from Ryan, he was really embarrassed at the moment and he couldn't confirm it.

"Yes, I'm Dax, I want to see the envoy Ryan, I have important information to tell the envoy Ryan!" Dax shouted loudly from the perimeter of the security guard.

The movement wasn't too big, but it was enough to disturb Ryan, who was fidgeting and waiting for news in the garden. Now he didn't have to pace back and forth in the garden, and walked outside immediately.

Seeing this, Xia Duo also followed. He also wanted to see what important information Dax had arrived.

…

Arriving at the outskirts of the city garden, Xia Duo found that Dax was not the only one here, and there was also a strange moon elf, but that moon elf and Dax were on guard against each other.

Ryan came over and looked at Dax for the first time, and asked without a moment's pause: "Master Dasco, what important information did you bring?"

"Paris is crazy. He blocked the Silver Spire and wanted to kill me. Of course, these are not important. What he really wants to do is to sacrifice this city to satisfy his crazy ideas."

"Sacrifice the city?" Ryan continued to ask.

It's just that at this point, Dax didn't know much, and at this moment, the moon elf who found here after Dax spoke:

"Messenger Ryan, I am Gaudit, a member of the Metropolitan City Council, and I also have an important intelligence report."

"explain!"

"Not long ago, Paris summoned most of the members of the city council and imprisoned them in the Silver Spire. I escaped by taking advantage of the chaos of the battle between Dax and Paris." (End of this chapter)
