Chapter 707: The Mirror of Extravagance and Reversal

The next day, just as Xia Duo was about to go to the apprenticeship management office to meet the two new mages after practicing, Nia suddenly arrived with a piece of news that was not unexpected:

"Lord Rodney's invitation has come, and he invites you to visit Rodney Lord!"

When the news was uncertain before, Xia Duo still had distracting thoughts, but when the other party's invitation really arrived, there was hardly any fluctuation in his heart, and he asked casually:

"What about time?"

Niya was a little angry but she was so worried, but Xia Duo, the person concerned, only had this reaction, and couldn't help but glance at Xia Duo, and said angrily:

"There is no specific time! The invitation was conveyed through the Austrian French Federation, although it was mentioned above that it was recommended to arrive before the end of the month. ”

As she spoke, she handed over a pale yellow and gray invitation to Xia Duo.

……

Don't have a specific time? So weird?

Xia Duo took the invitation, and as soon as he opened it, a separate piece of paper slipped down, and he picked it up casually, heh! It feels a little special!

At a glance, isn't this the paper used to make high-level magic scrolls?

There is only one line on it, scribbled "It is recommended to arrive before the end of the month", which is really extravagant!

Looking at the invitation again, except for the cover of the thin piece of wood, there is ordinary parchment paper inside, although the style looks more advanced than the paper alone, and even a lot of intricate and exquisite patterns are drawn on the edges, but the essence is much inferior.

The handwriting is somewhat similar to that on the separate piece of paper, but it is clearly written on this invitation letter, to the effect that "I have heard your name for a long time, and I hereby invite you to see it."

Not only is there no time, there is no beginning and no end, there is no identity of the inviter, and there is no identity of being invited, if it is not for the invitation of Lord Rodney in advance, it is really confusing!

"How do you know it's Lord Rodney's invitation?" Xia Duo asked curiously.

Although the possibility of being a hoax is very small, it really does not rule it out.

Nia understood what Shado meant, and she made her judgment:

"Of course I know, I've already confirmed that this is sent in the name of Archmage Orone, if this is not an invitation from Lord Rodney, what else would it be!"

"I see!"

It dawned on Chardo that Oron, like Gretta, was also a subordinate of the princess, and of course it might be more appropriate to say that he was a follower, and that Oron was actually serving in the Arcane Federation, not like Gretta, who often followed the princess.

If it was sent in the name of Archmage Orone, it was almost 100% that Rodney received the matter, first Greta brought up the news, and then Oron sent an invitation, which is obvious!

Even Chardo speculated whether this could have been written by Oron himself.

"And when are you going to go?"

"It should be just a few days!" Xia Duo said calmly.

Since you have already realized something, it is better to take a trip early, anyway, after the completion of the spell book, you will not be able to make any major breakthroughs in a short time.

If it weren't for the fact that he was going to spare a few days to familiarize himself with the spell book, Xia Duo was ready to set off immediately, and from yesterday to today, he had already felt the infinite goodness of the spell book.

Almost smooth, unlimited times, compared to magic scrolls, it is simply an overwhelming advantage.

The only downside is probably that the cost is too high, but this is not a problem with the spellbook, but with the caster himself.

Of course, there is also the not-so-problematic problem that the magic scroll can prepare countless spells in advance that will not be used even once in the future.

However, spell books can't do this, the inner pages have a limited capacity, and they can't be added indefinitely, so there must be a trade-off.

However, this problem can also be ignored by the problem of spell books, and if you have money, you can prepare a few more spell books.

In reality, as long as the planning is reasonable, a spell book is actually enough to use in various scenarios.

……

Hearing Xia Duo say that she was going to leave in the next few days, Nia couldn't help but be a little silent, but she also knew that it would not work if the invitations didn't come, so she silently untied a small mirror-like ornament from her waist.

Holding it in one hand, he sent it to Xia Duo, pretending not to care, and said calmly: "If you want to go to Rodney to get it, just bring this, anyway, I don't need to stay in the Tower of Time." ”

Xia Duo didn't reach out to take it at the first time, this was obviously a rather valuable magic item, he had just noticed Nia's movements, not only to untie it from her body, but more importantly, to break off the harmony with the magic item.

Originally, there were still some inconspicuous accessories, but after breaking the link with Niya, the magical aura it emitted instantly became more than one step stronger, becoming quite strong and dazzling.

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Duo took the small mirror, and he didn't know if it was an illusion, but when he took the small mirror, he seemed to hear the sound of Niya breathing a sigh of relief.

"This is a spell reversal mirror, which can reverse directional spells below 9 rings, but it can only be reversed three times in a short period of time, you must remember this!" Nia reminded.

"Hmm!"

Nia said seriously, and Xia Duo nodded solemnly.

In the [Projection Plane: Arcane Empire], he had also seen a magic item of the Spell Reversal type, which was a Spell Reversal Ring, which he had worn himself.

Somewhat regrettably, he hadn't seen [Spell Reversal] work with his own eyes.

And this time Nia's introduction was more detailed than what he knew in the projection plane, at least knowing that only directional spells could be reversed, not that any spell would work.

The so-called directional spell, in fact, can also be called a "locking spell", which is the kind of spell that is sure to hit once it is cast.

Almost all spells can be locked, but in real spell confrontations, this near-custom type of spell is uncommon.

It's more about spells that naturally have a locking effect, such as change or psychic control spells, that require extra attention.

As for the creation spells, most of them will not have a locking effect, as long as the reaction is fast enough to avoid it.

Ordinary mages may not have such dodging abilities, but Xia Duo has undergone bloodline awakening, and his body is no longer comparable to ordinary people, and he believes that as long as he does not stick to his face, he can dodge most of the non-locking spells.

Now, with the spell reversal mirror that Nia had given him, he even had the idea of wrestling his wrist with the Grand Arcanist.

Of course, this is just a reverie, and if you really encounter it, it's too late for him to run!

……

After the church Xia Duo linked to the [Mirror of Reversal], the two exchanged a few more pleasantries, and Niya found an excuse to leave, while Xia Duo continued to go to the apprenticeship management office and met the two new mages who had entered the academy.

"Gibson, Harlan, congratulations, you have finally become a real mage, but just a low-level mage can't appreciate the real scenery on the arcane road, keep up the good work, work hard, I'm optimistic about you!"

"Lord Xiaduo, I will!" *2

"Hmm!"

Since he still had something to do on his side, Xia Duo simply encouraged him and left in a hurry.
