Chapter 427: Atwood
Thinking of language, Xia Duo thought of another question, about the education of the people, so he said: "Gather together the minors in the territory, including the children of the Langas, and arrange for people to teach them to read, and the territory will not lack their labor force for the time being." ”
Leiden didn't agree with this decision very much, but it was always difficult for him to refuse the lord's words, so he could only agree and began to think about what the meaning was.
The two said that they were discussing together, but it was more that Xia Duo was unilaterally assigning tasks, but sometimes he also had blind spots in his thinking, and then Layton would add a few words.
Before I knew it, the night was already very deep, and Xia Duo was already a little tired, "Do you have anything else to say?" If not, go back and rest. ”
"There is one more thing that must be told to adults." Layton's expression suddenly became solemn.
Xia Duo suddenly became a little interested and said, "What's the matter?" ”
"In addition to those Langas, there is also a very special person among the people who came with the ship this time."
"Special people?" Xia Duo thought about it for a moment, except for the Langas on the ship, weren't they the people of the Slevin Chamber of Commerce? But he didn't find anything special.
"Are the translators from the Slevin Chamber of Commerce?" Shado asked.
"No, sir." Layton shook his head, "That man is mixed in with the Langas, and although it is difficult to tell from the outside, I am sure that he once possessed holy powers!" ”
"Who is it?"
At this moment, Xia Duo is not just curious, he once had holy power, which means that he is no longer there, so what is the identity of this person? What is the purpose of coming to the Great Xia Territory?
"The skin of that man's right hand is like the bark of a dry old tree, and adults should have an impression."
As soon as Layton said this, Xia Duo remembered that he had been present when he had just arranged a place for those Langas, and that his right hand, which looked like a withered old bark, was really impressive.
Moreover, in retrospect, that person seems to be a little less wild than a normal Langasian, and I don't know if it is a psychological effect.
He hurriedly asked Leiden, "You said that he once possessed holy power, can you tell what kind of holy power it is?" ”
Layton looked ashamed, "My lord, I can't tell, I can only see that there are traces of residual holy power radiation on his body. ”
Traces of Holy Force Radiation?
In the past, Savile led the Arcane Competition, when a priest of the Goddess of Magic came from afar to perform a secret flame baptism ceremony for Abbeck, and Abbeck regained his youth, which is actually a trace of holy radiation.
It's just that after the fact, Alberk cast a spell to disguise his youthful appearance, and in fact he should look younger than himself.
Generally speaking, the traces of holy power radiation are permanent, which is equivalent to saying that the effect of the transformation of holy power is permanent, and there is only one situation that may appear if there are residual traces of holy power radiation on that person.
That is, that person was originally a clergyman, but for some reason he lost his holy power, and all the effects based on this holy power no longer existed.
If Leiden suddenly loses his holy power now, then there will also be some traces of holy power radiation left on his body.
It's just that it is indeed a difficult problem to identify the traces of holy power radiation, at least Xia Duo has not been able to find the traces of holy power radiation on that person, let alone distinguish which kind of holy power is caused by it.
Not even a professional like Layton recognized it.
After thinking about it, Xia Duo felt that it was better for the two parties to talk about this kind of thing directly and honestly, and if it was really troublesome, then he could also prepare in advance, so he said:
"Tomorrow, you go and ask the people of the Slevin Chamber of Commerce first, to see if that person was in the Kapting tribe from the beginning, and then you go to talk to that person, ask him for his specific identity, if there is no trouble behind him, you can stay in the Great Xia Territory, if there is trouble, the ship has not left, let him leave directly tomorrow."
Leiden can cast the [Honest Domain], it is difficult for an ordinary person who has lost his holy power to lie in front of him, as long as he asks about the situation clearly, Xia Duo naturally does not mind having another population in the territory.
"That's all for today, go back and rest early."
"Yes, sir."
……
The next day, the sky was getting more and more gloomy, and the low clouds seemed to be about to press overhead, which made people feel a little depressed.
Xia Duo looked at the sky, nibbled on steamed buns, and estimated in his heart when it would snow, and just now Leiden came over, saying that he was going to the southern district to inquire about the situation.
The people of the Slevin Chamber of Commerce had already asked, and the man claimed to be "Atwood", who was fished up from the river by the Slevin Chamber of Commerce, and was seriously injured at the time and stuffed into the Kapting tribe to save him, but also just to add one more population and earn a little more gold.
Now Layton went to ask Atwood directly, and he should know his identity later.
Xia Duo was still very curious, how could a normal clergyman with status and status lose his holy power? Did he anger his God, or was it for some other reason?
……
After breakfast, Xia Duo first did a simple physical training to make his body and spirit active, and then took out his books and notes to wander in the field of magic.
The last time he was in Yerlan Silver Light City on the projection plane was more than a year, although he didn't devote most of his time to magic research, even if there were only a few, it was enough to greatly improve his upgrade progress.
The threshold of a high-level mage is a 5-ring spell, and Xia Duo is already very close, and he has adjusted this advanced plan before, giving priority to upgrading, and then slowly polishing it to meet the advanced conditions.
This is due to the desire for long-distance teleportation, and also because of this adjustment, which actually does not have much impact, but only pushes the advancement time back a little.
However, there is no absolute gap between high-level mages and arcanists in terms of strength, so it is more advantageous to delay the advancement a little but speed up the process of becoming a high-level mage.
Xia Duo's choice of advancement method is still to choose a 4-ring spell and build a complete 5-ring spell with the elements before the fifth layer of the magic net, so as to contact the fifth layer of the magic net.
If he could, of course, he would like to be able to touch the deeper magic web at once, but advanced arcanists are the easiest at the 5-ring level.
If it is low, the essence of grabbing is not enough to form an arcane fire, and if it is exceeded, it is difficult to grasp the essence of the magic net under the influence of more layers of magic nets, and the difficulty of advancing has greatly increased.
This time, the spell he chose was [Mage Armor].
This creation spell, which originally only had a 1-ring level, had been promoted to the 4-ring level by Xia Duo not long ago, involving the depth of the magic net level, which also gave this spell a stronger essence and higher scalability.
From 2 rings to 3 rings, Xia Duo mainly focuses on the improvement of protection ability, but by 4 rings, the passive protection ability improvement is enough, and it can even be said that the 3-ring level [Mage Armor] is enough.
Therefore, at the level of the 4 rings, Xia Duo focuses more on the increase of duration, so there is now the 4 rings [Long-term Armor].
As the name suggests, the duration is super strong, and it can last for more than twelve hours at a time.
Of course, since the higher the ring level spell, the higher the expansibility of the spell, this spell actually did not reach the level that Xia Duo was satisfied with.
It's just that in order to become a high-level mage as soon as possible, he didn't improve it as much as possible, but continued to reverse the elements of the fifth-layer magic net on this basis, and used the elements below the fifth-layer magic net to construct an equivalent 5-ring spell.
And in this way, you can get in touch with the fifth layer of the magic web.
