Chapter 881 - Accidental, Early Opportunity to Turn Positive
Accompanied by Nia, Shado soon arrived outside Archmage Gretta's office, but the door was closed, allowing the two of them to trigger the open alarm as a doorbell several times, but no one answered.
"The archmage may not be here, maybe it's just a trigger message, let's go back first!" After a little thought, Xia Duo found something suspicious.
As an archmage, Greta could have sent him a message directly, without having to let Taling convey it, perhaps because the other party had left the information on Taling's side in advance.
Niya proposed, "Why don't I contact the Archmage and ask what the situation is?" ”
Xia Duo thought for a while, "That's fine, I'm sorry for you!" ”
In fact, with Xia Duo's current status, he can directly contact the archmage, but he and Greta have no personal relationship, and some only chat about a few routine meetings.
And Nia is different, the status of the princess's student has brought her a lot of convenience, at least in terms of dealing with the interpersonal relationship with Archmage Gretta, the manager of the Gillestall Tower, it is much easier than ordinary people.
said that it was a personal relationship, but in fact, it was more like Greta taking care of Nia, a junior.
……
Here, as soon as Nia contacted Archmage Gretta, Xia Duo noticed that there was a teleportation fluctuation around him, and realized what it might be, so he immediately pressed the idea of delaying the teleportation.
The next moment, the space at the doorway seemed to vibrate so strongly that it produced a misty white mist, and with a sudden flash of magical aura, Archmage Greta appeared at the door!
"Nia, Shado, you're back a little earlier than I expected, come in!"
With that, Archmage Greta opened the door, revealing the dimly lit interior of the room, and motioned for the two Chardos to enter.
As the three of them walked in, the light in the room turned from dark to bright, and the air seemed to flow slowly, which was particularly clear to Xia Duo, a bloodline who could transform into a gas form and control the airspace at any time.
I've been to Gretta's office a few times before, but those times Xador has come with people and ignored them.
Now he has experienced it from scratch, and he has discovered some details that he ignored in the past-
The air in this office is relatively separate from the outside world, not circulating, and is always up to date, which may be interesting if someone really wants to poison the air.
"Let's sit down first!"
Xia Duo and Nia sat down as they said, and after that, Greta began to get into the topic, she first glanced at Niya, who was a little nervous, smiled slightly, and then set her eyes on Xia Duo:
"I came to you because I wanted to inform you that Her Royal Highness the Princess has decided to grant official lord status to a group of potential pioneers in advance, and you are one of them!"
"Huh?!"
Xia Duo and Nia looked at each other, none of them thought that the Archmage's invitation was actually for this, not related to the [Psychic Link] as Xia Duo had guessed before.
"What? Surprised? ”
Greta looked at the two of them in surprise, as if she had thought of something, but she didn't pay much attention to it, and then the conversation changed, and her expression became serious:
"It's a good thing to be granted a formal lord status in advance, but you can't be satisfied with it, forgetting that the lord's duty is to protect his people and expand his territory!"
"Yes, I won't forget!" Xia Duo immediately showed his heart.
"Don't be too happy, even Her Royal Highness the Princess can't grant someone the status of a formal lord unconditionally and at will, and this requires the consent of the Council of Severington."
"This-" Xia Duo was immediately dumbfounded, he thought it was directly turned positive, but he didn't expect that there was another process.
However, this is also a good thing for him, at least it shows that the Grand Arcanist must also obey certain rules, which undoubtedly gives him a lot of opportunities to survive and develop.
As if feeling that the atmosphere was a little too serious, Greta smiled slightly, her expression softened slightly, and then said:
"But you don't have to worry too much, I've heard that this batch of pioneers all have a copy of the "Great Xia Collar Standard Pioneer Guide"! If even the Great Xia Collar can't be approved by the Severynton Council, then it will be even more difficult for the others! ”
At this moment, Niya suddenly interjected, "Then what exactly do you need to do to get the approval of the Severant Council?" Can the Archmage give me some pointers? ”
"That's what I'm going to say next!"
Instead of getting angry at Niya's sudden interjection, Greta followed Nia's words, "Just within this month, the Severant Council, or more accurately the Seven Towers, will send people to the various frontiers to investigate and communicate with the pioneers, and the main process is like this.
"As for how to pass, there are two specific requirements, which are also the duties of the corresponding lord, one is that the people of the pioneer territory must have sufficient food, and the other is that the pioneer must provide a timetable for the territory's food self-sufficiency, and ensure that the territory has sufficient food reserves before the territory reaches self-sufficiency."
Just two requirements seem very simple, but Xia Duo knows that there should be a hidden condition in this, and this condition has actually been revealed by Archmage Greta before - "potential"!
Maybe it's the number of people, maybe it's the size of the territory, maybe it's the identity background of the pioneers, maybe it's the pioneers' own abilities, in short, there must be some considerations above.
This is a bit similar to an equal election, where a group of potential pioneers are screened out among dozens of pioneers, and these potential pioneers, if all of them meet those two requirements, these people should all be able to turn positive.
For Chado, the only thing that is a little difficult is the self-sufficient schedule.
The rest is nothing more than some food, as long as there is Niya's support, it is not difficult to get as much food, but it is a timetable, since it is granted the status of lord in advance, there will definitely be a certain limit.
Maybe it's on this timetable, since it's a plan, there must be variables, and it's probably the only difficulty to satisfy the inspection of the Severynton Parliament and leave room for yourself!
However, compared to other pioneers, the conditions on Xia Duo's side are already much better, if even he can't get the approval of the Sevington Council, then it is basically impossible for others to do it!
"Thank you, Archmage, for your advice! I'm going to be well prepared. ”
"That's good, Her Royal Highness the princess values you very much, I hope you don't let her down!" Greta reminded her one last time, and it meant to end the conversation.
Xia Duo also saw this, but he still had some doubts in his heart, so he took the initiative to raise the topic again, "Your Excellency Greta, I don't know if Gilles Tower is interested in the psychic spells I used in the Green Plane, if so, I am willing to provide a study scroll. ”
