The next day, the meeting went on as scheduled, and in a certain hall of the Goddess of Magic's underground temple, all thirteen participants were present, and there was no situation where a mage did not come.

Even those mages who had already heard other people's speeches yesterday and had not yet given speeches themselves all came, and everyone attached great importance to this exchange meeting.

Compared to yesterday's time, Xia Duo and Nia were actually the last ones when they arrived, and most of them arrived earlier than them, and while they were waiting, they also started the projection game like yesterday.

Today, Xia Duo didn't play chess with Nia, but silently sorted out what he was going to talk about later, and what he was going to talk about was fixed-point teleportation, or [Teleportation Mark], an extremely practical spell.

This is a kind of "pre-teleportation" spell researched by Xia Duo on the basis of the traditional [Teleportation Technique], in essence, casting the [Teleportation Mark] is equivalent to teleportation, but the result is suppressed indefinitely, and it will only be activated immediately when it is needed.

No matter what kind of spell it is, it needs a certain amount of cast time, no matter how short it seems, let alone a spell as complex as teleportation, unless it is a magic net storage spell that does not require cast time.

Xia Duo was inspired by the magic net storage spell, which is essentially also a "pre-cast" spell, but the result is stored in the magic web.

But the magic net storage spell is limited after all, and wouldn't it be more convenient to have an additional "pre-teleport" spell.

On the earth, Xia Duo has done projects, written papers, coded codes, and the "speech + question" format of the exchange meeting is not similar to the graduation defense?

Even the projections are so similar, which shows that intelligent life is common in some forms of selection.

-- Application and Expansion of Pre-casting Techniques in Spellcasting Practice: A Case Study of the New Teleportation Technique [Teleportation Mark]

This is the topic chosen by Xia Duo, and he came out of the "liver" last night, which is also because his previous research records are all in the carry-on space, and they are clearly organized, which is basically a bamboo in his chest.

Sort it out again, swap out some custom simplified vocabulary for the magical terminology common to color-resistant mages, and you'll be fine.

After a while, as the meeting was approaching the beginning of the meeting, several of the mages who were playing chess suddenly stopped, and everyone looked at each other and smiled, all of them expressing their desire to start now.

Of course, no one refused, so the exchange continued in this relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.

……

Near noon, the exchange meeting was temporarily suspended, and everyone was about to rest for a while with some light meals, when at this moment, a temple staff wearing a blue robe suddenly opened the door and walked in.

"Hey, isn't it night?" As the organizer, Belella immediately raised the question, if the exchange meeting could be disturbed at will, she would not choose to be here at all.

"Mage Belera, everyone, I'm sorry to disturb you." The temple staff did not panic at all, and their tone was even a little relaxed, "Archmage Sandro of Morion Tower invited you to come to the ceremony, it is all voluntary, if you don't want to go, you can leave now." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Belera again, showing an apologetic expression, "Mage Belera's fee for renting the Unicorn Hall will be refunded in full, I'm sorry. ”

"Watching the ceremony? What kind of ceremony? Bellera was not at all embarrassed by the clearance, but was curious about what the Archmage Sandro had invited them to attend.

"Archmage Sandro will perform the [Immortality Ritual]."

"Rite of Immortality?"

Bellera suddenly looked at one of the thirteen people who participated in the exchange meeting, "Higgs, you are also from the Morion Tower, have you heard of Archmage Sandro performing the immortality ceremony?" ”

"Nope." Higgs shook his head, "How can I know about the archmage?" Just take a look! ”

Bellera didn't say yes directly, but asked for the opinions of others, "What do you think?" Want to see the Rite of Immortality? ”

The temple personnel are still waiting here, if they want to make a decision, they have to clear the scene, although Xia Duo is very curious about this so-called immortality ceremony, he is also vigilant.

He whispered to Nia, "Have you heard of this Sandro Archmage? And what kind of immortality ritual? Could it be a trap? ”

Niya glanced at him and replied: "Archmage Sandro really has such a person, I don't know much about the details, as for whether it is a trap or not, here are all Seven Pagoda Mages, who dares to set a trap to harm us?" ”

This is not necessarily, but Xia Duo did not refute it, the probability of the Seven Towers mage being killed in Severton is indeed very low, so should you go to the ceremony?

"I'd like to see the legendary Rite of Immorality." In addition to Higgs, another mage was the first to express his willingness to go to the ceremony.

"I want to go too."

"Count me in!"

……

Belella's eyes swept away, one counts as one, in addition to her, twelve is not less, and she herself is also very interested in the immortal ceremony, "Since this is the case, then let's go and watch the ceremony first, wait for the immortal ceremony to end, and then decide whether the exchange meeting will continue." ”

"The Sword Comes"

……

On the way to the ceremonial site, the temple staff who led the way began to tell everyone some precautions for observing the ceremony, "During the ceremony, don't be surprised by what you see, keep quiet, don't cast spells, and if you can, you can send a blessing to the archmage before the ceremony." ”

The mages readily agreed.

Soon, led by the temple staff, the group bypassed several corridors and came to a brightly lit ceremonial hall topped by a sacred emblem representing the goddess of magic, surrounded by pots of blue-and-white flames.

But the flames were not the source of the brightness in the hall, in fact, the invisible light spells illuminated the underground ceremonial hall as if it were in the scorching sun, and it was even a little too bright.

On one side of the hall was a stone platform about a palm-high, on which was a desk with bottles and jars, and a chaise long.

When Xia Duo and the others arrived, they saw a tall but slightly rickety old man at the desk, who seemed to be preparing some kind of potion, and he didn't have the slightest intention of turning back when he heard everyone's footsteps.

On the other side of the hall was the place where everyone was watching, except for the thirteen people who had just arrived on Xia Duo's side, many people had already come before them, and they were sitting in their seats at this time, waiting quietly, without any whispers.

About twenty or thirty people, although not necessarily all of them were high-level mages, but they were all spellcasters, Xia Duo only glanced at it, then looked away, and sat down with Niya.
