Chapter 496: To Severton Again
Headquarters of the Acantro-French Federation, Public Conveyance Room No. 2.
With a flash of white light, a young mage wearing a dark red robe and holding a silver-white scepter appeared on the teleportation circle, and the person who came was none other than Xia Duo, who had been summoned here from Linshui Village by a "phone call" from Niya.
To be honest, when he came to Severton again, Xia Duo was a little unhappy in his heart, and his proposal for a new project for the Arcane Competition was adopted, but the reward was not given, and he was called to train a group of novices.
He was now at the critical moment of perceiving his soul, and when he arrived at the Gilles Tower, how could he dare to meditate under the noses of others? But he didn't dare to disobey the summons of the Grand Arcanist, especially the princess, the Grand Arcanist, who could be regarded as his superior and backer.
Relying on other people's mixed rice to eat, how can you give some face. Besides, although there are no rewards yet, when the dust settles in the snowmelt competition, as long as Nessreel's side achieves good results in the [Arcane Mystery], the rewards will definitely be indispensable.
And whether he can achieve good results also has something to do with his training, at least in the eyes of the people above, it is related.
Out of the Arcane Federation, it was Nia who came to "pick him up" and took him into the old town, and if there was no one to lead him, then he might not know how far he would have to go.
Of course, it is also possible to go directly to the Gilles Tower through the Austrian Federation's teleportation circle, but Xia Duo does not have the passkey to the Gilles Tower teleportation circle, even if it is only temporary.
"Xia Duo, do you know, you are famous now, since the announcement of the new project of the snowmelt competition, many people have been asking about you, and even the elves have stopped picking on you."
"Really?"
Xia Duo's face remained unchanged, and his tone was a little flat, but in fact, his heart was not as calm as it seemed on the outside, and it was of course a good thing to be able to gain fame, after all, he speculated that his bloodline awakening might be related to the power of those beliefs against him.
But fame also brings some bad effects, such as attracting envy or something, and if he has a choice, then he would rather eat all the benefits quietly.
Of course, Xia Duo is not afraid of challenges, and now he has enough confidence to deal with everything.
It's just that trouble is also something he wants to avoid, so what's the use of wasting time other than wasting time?
It seems that seeing that Xia Duo's interest is not high, Nia turns to Xia Duo to introduce the situation of his Gilles Tower, although Nia has been in the Gilles Tower for less than a year, and most of this time is in a state of remedial classes, but at least she knows more than Xia Duo, isn't it
After a while, the carriage carrying the two of them entered the old town, which was far less prosperous than the new city, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was deserted, but Xia Duo felt a hint of an atmosphere similar to that of a university on earth.
In addition to the tallest Gilles Tower, there are many other low mage towers, according to Nia's introduction, these mage towers were built by the division, although not as perfect as the tower of time, but they are also orderly and valuable.
The path of advancement of the division is very narrow, except for the illusory possibility of becoming a legendary mage, it is basically impossible to directly advance to an arcane master.
Most divisions will find a way to build a mage tower when their life is at the end of their life, leaving it to future generations, and those who have money will build it early.
Of course, the land in the old city is limited, and the mage tower that can be left in the old city is a long time ago, and the most recent mage tower built in the old city is more than 100 years ago.
Most of the subsequent divisions tried to find a piece of land close to Severton and build a mage tower to pass it on.
At the beginning, when the land in the core area of Nasei was still abundant, it was not difficult to obtain a piece of land, and even as long as it was borderless, it could be occupied, after all, Shi Ben had the right to open up new land.
This is how many very small territories were born.
But now, the borderlands in the core area of the color resistance are extremely rare, and even if there is, there are many people staring at them, and most of the current divisions choose to go directly to the Seven Towers, or the mage towers of other Grand Arcanists.
It's no more comfortable than having your own mage tower, but it doesn't have to be as hard and troublesome as going to the wilderness to open up new lands.
After listening to Nia's introduction, Xia Duo thought more, in this era, if there is no fundamental breakthrough in productivity in Nesser, then the population saturation of the core area has become a foregone conclusion.
Then the pioneering movement led by the princess is very much in line with the current trend of the times.
If new land is not explored, then the interior may have to consume the population through war, and development, in addition to obtaining new land, will also reduce the population.
Even if the princess doesn't take the lead in proposing it, there will be other lords who will come out to do it, after all, the current Nasei territory was originally opened up from scratch.
They are now just going back to the path of their ancestors.
The Pioneer had already become an advanced member of Nesseril, and at the thought of it, Xia Duo couldn't help but let out a chuckle.
Hearing the laughter, Nia turned her head and asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?" ”
"Nothing, just a name from my hometown came to mind."
At the mention of her hometown, Nia became even more curious, "Xia Duo, you are not a color-resistant person, why haven't you ever heard you mention your hometown?" ”
Xia Duo has no intention of hiding the fact that he is not a color-resistant person, but the existence of his hometown still needs to be modified with some technology, after all, he doesn't want others to know that he is an alien plane, or even an existence in another universe.
All along, he claimed that his home was farther east than Comanso, and only God knows where it was.
Because of the existence of Mu Yan, Xia Duo felt that there should be a so-called Karatu continent in this world, but it was difficult to say whether it was in the same plane as Nesser.
Anyway, Mu Yan claimed to be from the East, and he also claimed to be from the East, Mu Yan claimed to have encountered a space-time rift, so he also experienced it once, anyway, there are not a few people who have had this experience.
As far as Xia Duo knew, a mistake in the [Teleportation Technique] could not only cause the caster to lose himself, but also involve others nearby.
Nexral's teleportation accidents have long been common, especially the teleportation scroll, which greatly increases the probability of such accidents, which is why Xia Duo prioritizes stability when researching teleportation spells.
I'm really afraid of death.
Seeing that Nia was interested in her hometown, Xia Duo was not disgusted by this, but when he saw the tower not far ahead, he smiled and said: "My hometown is in a very distant and beautiful place, but this story will be very long, if you want to hear it, I will tell it to you slowly when I have time in the future, now take me into the Gilles Tower first." ”
"Oh, by the way, Master Greta is still waiting for you in the Mage Tower." Thinking of what was going on, Nia suddenly became anxious again, and pulled Xia Duo and ran to the foot of the tower.
