When he first talked to Niya about the experience of transforming into an elf in the projection plane, Niya looked shocked, but isn't that over by now?
Why are you still making such a fuss?
For now, when Mage Nese enters the projection plane, he can only randomly transform into a certain creature. The probability of transforming into an elf is extremely low. Even transforming into a human being is not 100% possible.
But in the future, who knows whether there will be more controllable projection spells?
You must know that even now, there is an advanced state of the astral mage - the eternal Holy Spirit, who can freely enter and exit the projection plane, and can even bring out real matter from it.
Niya had told him this news, saying that an eternal Holy Spirit had once appeared from the Giles Tower.
It's a pity that although this kind of eternal Holy Spirit has gained an almost eternal lifespan, they have lost their most precious freedom, and it is difficult to return to the main plane, and they have not been able to gain much improvement in strength.
But in any case, it can be regarded as a more advanced way of exploring the projection plane.
In the future, there may be something more convenient! For example, obtain the projection plane information in advance, then freely select the avatar object, and finally perform the projection.
It is not impossible to even develop to directly analyze the essence of the projection plane in the astral world - that strange spiritual information group!
Of course, Xia Duo also knew that what Niya just said was mostly a joke. After the joke, he mentioned the iron stone that Congenio gave him last night.
"There are three in total, two are on top of my head, and I am going to give you one."
"ah!"
Niya suddenly raised her head and looked at the top of Xia Duo's head. Only then did she notice that there were two strange gems making irregular movements in the space about a foot above Xia Duo's head.
"What did you just say? There is another one, do you want to give it to me?"
"Yes."
Sha Duo then took out the box containing the ioun stone, took out the red spindle-shaped ioun stone, and said meaningfully:
"This one is a physical bonus. It doesn't improve me much, but it's just right for you."
Niya heard the ambiguity in Xia Duo's words and seemed to have thought of something. Her cheeks couldn't help but feel a little hot. Seeing Xia Duo looking at her with a smile, she quickly took the red ioun stone and placed it in her palm, pretending to observe carefully.
But actually he didn't dare to look at Xia Duo.
Seeing this, Xia Duo did not tease her any more, but simply introduced to her the use and linking methods of this physical ioun stone.
Soon, Niya successfully linked the Ioun Stone and placed it above her head. She then stood up and walked a few steps, and tried to wave her arms quickly.
"Really, I feel my strength has increased a lot!"
Power does not come out of thin air. Only when the body is strong can the power be strong. However, this kind of power is still slightly inferior to Xia Duo.
In the study, Xia Duo did not do any further tests. He would know by the evening anyway.
…
In the next few days, Shado was working on upgrading spells outside the [anti-magic field] to level 8 while waiting quietly for the dust to settle in Severton.
The one-month deadline for the Seven Towers Resolution is coming to an end soon. Whether Skum will take over smoothly or Chaos will make a strong return depends on the next few days.
Shado paid close attention to this, but that was all. He had already brought Master Byron back. If Skum could not successfully take over, it would be better to let Chaos come back.
In fact, even if Skoum is the princess's designated successor, there may be a favor inherited from the princess for Shado and Niya, but after all, they are not as close as the princess.
However, what Xia Duo wants is just for the relationship to not deteriorate in the short term. It is best to maintain the status quo. As for the long term, he will have become a great arcanist by then, and there is no need to rely on the mountain anymore.
At that time, he was the top of the mountain.
…
Soon the time came to mid-February, which was already the one-month deadline for the Seven Towers. News from Severington had not yet arrived, but Xia Duo was not in a hurry at all and did not even ask anyone to inquire.
Becoming a senior arcanist really gave him great confidence. No matter what the final outcome was, he had enough confidence to deal with it.
On this day, while studying spells to increase the level, Xia Duo went to the Mystic Ruins outside the Tower of Time to repair the magic network, which was a way to soothe his nervous brain.
If this had been before entering the [Projection Plane: Birth of Cormanthor], he would not have been able to repair the magic network as a pastime so easily.
The [Sword of Dominance] obtained in the projection plane contains a lot of magical knowledge, including the subsequent processing of the Mystery Lock.
Whether it is repairing, destroying, transforming or resetting, it is all recorded.
Although repairing the Magic Network is not among them, the Mystery Lock involves the macro-transformation of the Magic Network, which itself contains this type of knowledge.
Combined with the arcanist's own arcane fire repair, Sha Duo found a more efficient method to repair the magic network, but this method requires the use of some skills in elf magic.
For the time being, he is the only one among the three arcanists of the Tower of Time who can master it proficiently.
In the past few days, he had to go out to repair the magic network almost every day, but today, just when Xia Duo had set up the protective spells and was about to launch the arcane fire to carry out repair work, a message suddenly appeared in the communication instrument——
Leiden summons, code compilation completed!
After receiving such news, Xia Duo immediately gave up repairing the magic network. He didn't care about the day or two anyway. The new repair method would also take several months!
Of course, in the past few months, there was no need for him to focus on repairing the magic network like the eight arcanists did before. He only had to come out when needed and free.
If you really hurry up, the repair can definitely be completed within a month.
…
Nowadays, the Mystic Ruins have been completely surrounded by the Great Xia Territory. From the location where the Magic Network is repaired to the Government Affairs Office where Leiden is located, it only takes a few seconds for Xia Duo to fly through the clouds.
When he came here, Leiden was still holding a communication instrument produced by the Tower of Time. When he saw the lord arriving, Leiden immediately saluted and greeted:
"Lord Lord!"
"No need to be polite, where is the code? Let me see it!" Xia Duo said eagerly. He had been waiting for this code for a long time.
Of course, he had already read the general outline of the code and was quite satisfied with it, which made him look forward to the current details of the code even more.
"Yes, sir, the code is here -"
With that said, Leiden turned around and picked up a large stack of thick loose parchment from the desk behind him. While presenting it to Shado, he explained, "If you feel something is wrong, you can modify it at any time."
"Um."
Xia Duo took the parchment and put it on the pad. It was quite heavy, but the Tower of Time's new (wood pulp) paper was almost self-sufficient. When the external situation stabilized, it could be used in large quantities for offices in the territory.
Education matters.
In the long run, even the paper used for magic scrolls may be replaced by wood pulp paper, and even the magic scrolls themselves may be replaced by new things. (Cheap spell books)
