For a while, Xia Duo was already a little suspicious of the origin of this puzzle, even if it was researched by the Seven Towers themselves, it may not contain the traps set by the elves in advance.

Such a misty lock not only failed to bring him a sense of security, but made him panic for a while, but the establishment of the Sevinton Misty Lock must have cost a lot of manpower and material resources, and a guess alone was not enough to make the Seven Towers abandon the Lost Lock plan.

In other words, Xia Duo himself, a long-term plan comes to the end, and when it is about to be completed, if someone says that the plan has hidden dangers, he will not believe it, and even think that it is an obstacle to the plan.

Under such circumstances, Xia Duo once again brought up the idea of building a mage tower in Severington, if there is no mage tower, such a Sevington is really not reassuring at all!

As for the possibility of the expansion of the Lost Lock into a border barrier, there is no need to think about it in the long term for the time being, after all, there is still a difference between the Nessreel of the main plane and the Arcane Empire of the projection plane.

The independence of the lords of the various regions of Nessera is very strong, and it is unlikely that they will be willing to join the centralized mystery system that covers the entire territory of Nessel, which is equivalent to being a head shorter than the Seven Towers.

Although reality is a head shorter, in legal theory, they are equal to each other.

In addition, there is one biggest difference between the main plane and the projection plane -

Xia Duo knew that Ioram in the main plane was very likely to invent the Mithic core, but the projection plane did not have the person of Eolem, let alone the shadow of a super energy source such as the Mithic core.

The main plane's Nessera is likely to take the Floating City route in the future, and the importance of the surface territory will be greatly reduced, and the protection of the border barrier will not necessarily be required.

In other words, with the Floating City, even if the ground territory is not protected in any way, it will not easily invade until the enemy can solve the Floating City.

The most precious resource of war is people, not land, but Xia Duo doubts that after the completion of the floating city in the future, how many ordinary people will be able to move it.

The fewer ordinary people, the less potential for war and development.

"I hope the Color-resistant mage isn't so unwise!"

……

I don't know how long I thought about it, Xia Duo was already covered with a layer of golden light, the spring sun was not too hot, and it was even more gentle after being filtered by the realm of the robe's elemental balance.

Xia Duo enjoyed this kind of leisure time, but it was not really leisure at the moment, and he had to complete a demon slaying arrow and hand it over to Lord Harran in three days.

After that, he also had to prepare the mass production plan for the magic mechanics of the Tower of Time, if the mass production design was also handed over to someone else, then the OEM order of Lord Harran might not be completed within a month.

Back at the Acanthus Confederation, Xia Duo found that there were many more people here than when he first came in the morning, and most of them came to inquire about the news, but it didn't have much to do with him anymore.

The results of the investigation of the Seven Towers have been announced, and although it is not yet completely settled, it is almost impossible to overturn it, and Xia Duo can continue to carry out the trial production of the Demon Slayer Arrow with peace of mind.

……

And on the other side.

Upon returning to the Gustav Tower, Badigar immediately received a notice from the Tower's Foreign Affairs Department that Prince Pasteur had been waiting in the reception room for a long time.

As soon as possible, there had been no rest for two days and two nights, but Badigarh still held back his physical and mental irritability and sleepiness, did not delay, and soon came to the reception room.

Here he met Prince Pasteur, who was also tired, and in terms of physical fitness alone, the dwarves were more than superior to humans.

And now Prince Pasteur was so tired that even the beard on his chest, which would be neatly combed on any occasion, had become a little messy.

There may be an element of miserab, but it is more likely that Danzo's situation is already very bad.

Thinking like this, Badigarh pretended not to notice at all, and asked with concern as usual: "Your Royal Highness, come here so early, is there anything new underground?" ”

Prince Pasteur is a special man, and he is himself a Hammer warrior on the same level as the Grand Arcanist, and since the day he arrived in Severington, he has constantly brought the Seven Towers the latest information about the underground war.

Badigarh was not wrong to ask, but it clearly avoided Prince Pasteur's real intentions.

However, Prince Pasteur does not seem to realize that Badigar can be evaded, and answers the question seriously:

"The number of Drow priests is increasing day by day, but they have temporarily slowed down their offensive and turned to hoarding demons, and in the future, Danzo will definitely usher in a thunderous blow, and maybe Danzo will cease to exist at that time!"

When Badigar heard this, his face suddenly changed, after more than half a month of contact with Prince Pasteur, he knew a lot about the situation of the underground war.

In the past, although Drow could summon demons to fight, he could only summon them in battle, and those demons were very crazy, sometimes even killing the summoner, and more often than not, the demons fought each other.

If it weren't for that, Danzo would have fallen long ago, but now that Drow has found a more effective means of controlling the demons, there may indeed be an army of demons with a unified will in the future.

In that case, it is really not an empty phrase to put on the surface.

Badigar immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly asked: "Prince Pasteur, this question is very important, you must answer it seriously, is Drow really able to hoard demons?" ”

"Yes, I'm sure!" At the end, Prince Pasteur added, "In the name of the Pasteurs!" ”

Hearing such an answer, Badigar frowned deeply and sighed in his heart, he knew that the negotiations of the Northland Alliance would not drag on for long.

"Prince Pasteur didn't come to me just to tell me the news, did he? If there is anything else, please explain it as well. ”

"It's about the Northland Alliance negotiations!" Prince Pasteur said solemnly with a serious expression.

Badigar said in his heart, and listened to Prince Pasteur continue: "The negotiations of the Northland Alliance have come to an end, and only the final signing is missing, I hope that Nesseriel can put the safety of the Northland first, and make a slight concession on some insignificant issues, and Danzo will definitely reciprocate." ”

"Inconsequential questions?"

"Yes."

Badigar shook his head and asked, "Prince Pasteur, have you ever been to Lucian?" ”

"I've been there." Prince Pasteur's voice suddenly dimmed, and he knew it was Badigar who wanted to say something.

It was precisely because he had been there that he knew how difficult this seemingly inconsequential problem could be when it came to actually solving it!

The establishment of the Northland Alliance is a good thing that is conducive to the joint response of the Northland countries to the crisis, and even win-win cooperation, and the negotiations on this are more focused on the transfer and distribution of interests.

When it comes to specific interests, although each side has its own side of the demands, this is not impossible to talk about.

Under the threat of Drow, the Northland Alliance negotiations are advancing quickly, but they are stuck on some seemingly inconsequential issues!
