Chapter 998: Future Variables, Best Choice
Back in the study, Nia was still reading, but Shado didn't want to talk about Severynton anymore, lest she have the idea of going to Severynton again.
So he said, "There was a little trouble in the territory, and now it has been solved!" ”
This is not a lie, it is indeed a small trouble in the territory, and the matter has already happened, and it can barely be regarded as a solution.
Nia didn't suspect anything about Xia Duo's words, she knew Xia Duo's temperament well after being together for so long, and she knew that if she needed her help with something, Xia Duo would not fail to say it.
"It's good to be solved! But now I want to go back to the Tower of Time, I've just finished reading some of the materials, and I just happen to have some ideas to try, and I'm worried about messing up your study here. ”
Xia Duo thought about it, and did not object, at first he brought Nia out, but he was only worried that Niya would secretly run to Severton, but now Nia has temporarily dismissed this idea.
It would be inconvenient to keep her here, and besides, if Nia was determined to go to Severten, he couldn't stop her, it was just a way to express her thoughts.
"Since you want to go back, then bring Abel and Pamela back too, there are trolls in the Green Bead Forest, I'm really worried that they will be caught and eaten by trolls running around outside."
It's not impossible, after all, Pegasus can fly, but it can't fly all the time, as long as it falls to the ground, or even flies a little lower, it may be targeted by trolls.
This is Nia's baby bump, it was really eaten by the troll, Xia Duo is sorry at most, but Nia is estimated to be uncomfortable for a long time.
"Well, I'll call them!"
Nia also thought of this possibility, and immediately summoned Pamela, Abel was greedy for fun, unless Xia Duo ordered it, otherwise, Niya's summons could also be ignored by it.
But Pamela is still obedient, as long as Pamela comes back, Abel will follow him obediently.
Although Pegasus has intelligence, it is not as complex as humans, and it is relatively simple, Niya has taken care of the two Pegasus for a long time, and has long understood the temper of these two big guys.
Sure enough, not long after the arraignment, there was the sound of wings flapping the air and whirring outside the study window, as well as the mischievous and dissatisfied hiss of Abel.
……
Back at the Tower of Time, seeing Nia walk into the laboratory, Xia Duo finally felt a little more relaxed.
Originally, after the celebration, he would go to the Rayson Lord, visit the Rayson Lord, and ask for information about the experiment that caused the other party to lose his magical abilities.
But it is clear that the current situation is not suitable for travel.
At the same time, in order to deal with the various variables that may be caused by the princess's ascension, Xia Duo urgently needs to contact the eighth layer of the magic web in order to become a senior arcanist.
This goal could not even be called a goal in the first place, because it was an effect that would naturally be achieved when he conducted research related to the plane domain.
Now it really makes him sigh that Xia Duo wants to temporarily give up the research related to the plane field and turn an achievement that was not a goal in the past as the main goal.
lamenting the impermanence of the world, lamenting that he was still too optimistic in the past.
Before becoming a Grand Arcanist, he really couldn't relax, this was still a relatively stable environment in Nesser, if he changed to some wizarding worlds.
Isn't it true that everyone is cheating, and that you must take upgrading as the only goal and achieve the highest as quickly as possible in order to relax a little?
This is actually similar to the ideal reality debate between the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of money on earth, happiness does not necessarily require money, but it is certainly easier to be happy with money than without money.
It's all up to each person's choice.
Now that Shado has chosen reality, he needs the power boost brought about by the senior arcanists, and more importantly, the political status of the Seven Towers and the whole of Nessrael.
Not becoming a senior arcanist may not have any bad effects, but it is clear that in a future full of uncertainties like the present, becoming an advanced arcanist can have a higher risk resistance.
In the past, with the princess here, he didn't need to think too much, as long as he had a certain ability to protect himself, and other interests other than himself were within the rules.
As long as the backing is stable, under normal circumstances, the interests will be relatively stable, and there will be no mistakes easily.
And now that the princess is out of touch and uncertain whether she will be able to return in the future, Xia Duo must consider the effects of this variable.
First of all, self-protection is definitely fine, but other interests other than self-security are not necessarily possible.
Too much has been thought about the situation of a deterioration in the future, but there are actually good scenarios.
If the princess is really able to drop power and intervene in the mortal world at will, then becoming a senior arcanist will also help him to obtain higher benefits.
In this case, Xia Duo really has no other better choice.
Of course, it is also possible to join the Kieran Tower, as the Archmage Brendes, the director of the Arcane Federation, who has communicated with him before, hinted at.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
This may also be a good choice, but its only benefit is stability and guarantee, and even if the princess comes back, it won't have much impact.
Anyway, he doesn't have an official relationship with Gillesgaard Tower, he's just a pioneer, not to mention the relationship between Nia, and the princess can't do anything to him because of this, but it is estimated that there will be no more preferential treatment or something.
If Xia Duo had just crossed over at that time, he might have directly agreed to Brendes, but now, he was only one step away from a senior arcanist, so he naturally had to pick and choose, think carefully, and gain the best benefit for himself.
……
In fact, the future is largely determined by Xia Duo, but by the princess.
The best scenario in the future is for the princess to come back and sweep away all internal instability;
The worst-case scenario is that the princess can't come back (can't be affected), and the Gilles Tower is also controlled by people who don't deal with the princess.
But even in the worst-case scenario, it is almost impossible to endanger one's own personal safety, especially after Xia Duo became a veteran arcanist.
That being the case, then why not gamble on the best-case scenario?
Or this is the best situation, and it is also the most in line with Xia Duo's interests, if you don't dare to insist on this, then from the beginning, there is no need to promote any changes and guide any trends.
If you don't do anything, stay in the Tower of Time and don't go out, you can be stable for a lifetime, and you won't have to worry about eating and drinking.
But obviously, Xia Duo wants more than just eating and drinking.
……
And to become a senior arcanist and actively face the future variables, the only thing that Xia Duo is short of is time, or in other words, in the case of changes at any time in the future, the only thing he is short of is a projection plane.
Looking back now, Shado realized that he and Nia had been a little flustered and inconsiderate when he and Nia left Severton.
At that time, he could have gone to the Arcane Federation first and had a trip to the projection plane, for the current master plane, the time flow of the projection plane is extremely fast.
The time spent during this period was more of the time spent traveling to the Arcane Union and applying for the Astral Projection, and if he moved quickly, he could have calmly left Severton with Nia as a senior arcanist.
Of course, if he could turn back time and let Xia Duo go back in time and relive it, he would still choose to leave immediately.
If someone really blocked Severton, it would be not much different from eating a fly.
In the eyes of those who care, it is not only Niya's identity, but also a prop that can be used, even if it is Xia Duo himself, it may not be used as a prop to use Niya.
All this, Xia Duo couldn't help but sigh when he thought back at this moment.
