Chapter 1220: Inquiries from Hawke and Iolem at the Embassy Gate
A great arcanist, for an individual, the power is indeed strong and difficult to resist, almost the culmination of individual strength known to mankind, but for the country, one or two more deaths will not shake the national foundation.
On the contrary, if this matter is not handled well, the impact may be even greater than that of the Grand Arcanist himself.
Chateau pondered when the Seven Towers would announce the results of the investigation, and before he knew it, he had already walked to the door of the main entrance of the Comantso Embassy.
At that moment, a human figure walked out of the door, and Xia Duo turned his head curiously to see who had left the Comantso Embassy.
"Is it him?!"
Seeing the human being who was relatively familiar to him, Xia Duo was shocked, but he was not surprised.
It's justβ
It is really intriguing that a human archanist left the main entrance of the Comanso embassy in this situation.
That man was none other than Lord Hawke, who had a conflict with Shado, and of course he was going to be called Hawke's Grand Arcanist now.
Not long ago, Iorham sent someone to the Tower of Time to take Aquireen Hawke, and Xado thought that he would not have any contact with him for a long time.
I didn't expect Severton to be so small, he just came out for a casual stroll, and saw the other party coming out of the Comanso embassy.
If there is an exit, there will be an entry, and it will not be kidnapped by the elves, in this case, take the initiative to go to the Comanso embassy, what does this mean?
This reminded Xia Duo of how before he crossed over, a person in a high position in his hometown did not shy away from visiting foreign embassies in broad daylight and seeking so-called "asylum".
Lord Hawke wasn't going to seek refuge, but it certainly wasn't a good thing.
Almost for no reason, Xia Duo thought that the other party must have passed over the death of Cliff, whether it was betraying information or asking for merit and reward, the other party's own attitude was undoubtedly revealed.
"What a scourge!"
Xia Duo turned his head and was about to leave, he really didn't have any interest in communicating with the other party, but he didn't want Lord Hawke to take the initiative to contact:
"Lord Chado, that incident was all a misunderstanding, and Aguilain also received a lesson because of this matter, can't Lord Chado let it go because of this?"
Whew-
Xia Duo had long known that his illusion disguise could not be concealed from the master, but he didn't expect to be recognized in this situation, which was really embarrassing!
Regarding Lord Hawke's active accosting, Xia Duo only perfunctory on the grounds that "that incident has passed, and the teacher is waiting for me".
With his current sensitive status, if he were to be caught "secretly talking" with an elven archarcanist in front of the Comanso Embassy, even Iorham might be suspicious of his role in this matter!
The "teacher is waiting for me" he just said was not false, Iolem had just contacted him, saying that he wanted more details about Cliff's death, and that it was the Seven Towers' request.
In this regard, Xia Duo couldn't refuse, let alone refuse, and now he encountered Lord Hawke again, he really suspected that he didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out.
"What you see with your eyes is not necessarily true, I know that this place is sensitive, if Lord Xia Duo needs it, you can contact me at any time, I always believe that we have common interests!"
After Lord Hawke's last message, an invisible magical imprint quietly fell in front of Xia Duo.
Xia Duo just didn't see it, and rushed to the Arcane Federation wholeheartedly, but the magic mark always followed, and Xia Duo naturally didn't take it to heart.
But he couldn't really turn a blind eye to the people behind this magic mark, and Lord Hawke's "seeing may not be believing" also seemed to have a deep meaning.
Infernal Affairs? Or is it just a rhetoric? Xia Duo couldn't tell, but at this moment, if he didn't accept this magic mark, either the other party would be angry and make a public move, or the mark would follow until someone else found it.
As for destroying the mark directly, Xia Duo didn't think about it at all.
"Alas! What a thing! β
In fact, Xia Duo has already made a choice, but it is just a magic mark, using the behavior on the earth as a metaphor, that is, he was forcibly issued a business card, and it is a question of whether to accept it or not.
As he walked, Xia Duo took out the spell book and used one of the blank pages to carry the magic seal, which was different from carrying it with a communication weapon, but it was more formal and safer.
After receiving the magic mark, Lord Hawke's voice never appeared again, and Xia Duo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
β¦β¦
From the Embassy of Comanso to the Acantro Confederation, there is also a Plaza de l'Ofa.
As soon as he returned to the Arcane Federation, out of the sight of Lord Hawke's possible existence, Xia Duo immediately took down the page in the spellbook that contained Lord Hawke's magic mark and put it into his personal space.
He himself knew that many spells that were used to locate magic marks and cast them with the help of magic marks were not completely safe to store in spell books.
It's safer to put it in the carry-on space, and when you get to the carry-on space, even if the other party jumps out of the magic mark, it can be destroyed at will.
And leaving this magic mark may be able to be used in the future, whether it is the "common good" that Lord Hawke said, or plotting against each other through this magic mark, it is always a way.
Iolum Study.
Coming here again, Xia Duo's state of mind was completely different from before, although he was not sure if Iolem was going to ask him for more details at the request of the Seven Towers, but he still had to come over.
"Teacher, what other details do the Seven Towers want to know?"
"Last night, in front of you, they didn't want to open their mouths one by one, but afterwards they asked me to be a villain!"
Iolem shook his head slightly, showed a wry smile, and sold the Seven Towers without hesitation, and then his face was solemn, he looked directly at Xia Duo, and said solemnly:
"I believe that this matter has nothing to do with you, but here, I still have to ask, and this is the real request of the Seven Towers, I can't refuse."
"Teacher, excuse me!"
Xia Duo suddenly paid attention, and he noticed that at this moment, on Iolem's desk, there was a strange ornament that had not been visited several times before.
It was a bit like a hairspring in a watch, but it was divided into multiple layers, and as the two of them spoke, the extremely thin, suspiciously Mithril spiral structure continued to tremble.
At the same time, this strangely shaped tabletop ornament also exudes a bright magical aura, and this aura is also vibrating with the spiral structure of the main body of the ornament.
Xia Duo thought about it, if he was only sensitive to sounds, able to respond to sounds, and never suddenly appeared on Iolem's desk, perhaps it had something to do with this inquiry.
That's when Iolem's question came -
"Are you sure you weren't involved in any conspiracy related to Cliff's death?"
