Chapter 1212 Death of the Great Arcanist, waiting for judgment
Xia Duo immediately realized that the hunter reinforcements had arrived!
This movement and reinforcements were definitely not small. He took a deep breath of air that didn't actually exist, and felt for a heartbeat that didn't actually exist. After that, without any hesitation, he immediately chose to leave the star realm.
As for Thorne and Cliff, he couldn't care anymore. It was impossible for Thorne and Cliff not to notice such a big movement.
Such an almost irresistible factor appeared, and it was agreed that he would leave early.
…
Returning to the main plane, Xia Duo opened his eyes, and happened to see Cliff beside him opening his eyes at the same time. Those eyes that should have been indifferent, calm or tired, were now full of horror.
"Sir Cliff, what happened?" Sha Duo asked with concern.
Cliff was about to speak, but was stunned on the spot. Immediately afterwards, Shado saw Cliff falling to the ground like a fragile piece of porcelain and suddenly shattered.
Xia Duo was frightened by the scene in front of him. He subconsciously jumped out of the way. He suppressed his mental fatigue and cast a series of protective spells for himself one after another.
After that, he tried to check the bright golden robe wrapped in Cliff's ashes that had just fallen to the ground, and the sun scepter that fell three to five steps away.
"What exactly is going on?"
Sha Duo was filled with confusion. Did Cliff die in the battle in the star realm? What about Thorne? Didn't Thorne say he had the ability to leave at any time? Why didn't he show up yet?
If possible, Xia Duo really wants to leave and escape from this place. It involves the death of a great arcanist. One can imagine how much trouble there will be.
In addition, Cliff was not a member of Giles Tower, but he died here, and Giles Tower would be in big trouble.
And the trouble at Giles Tower will bring even greater trouble to Shado.
I can't explain it clearly, it's just a big head.
Before anyone discovered it yet, Shado immediately contacted Iolum and briefly explained the matter without adding any subjective description.
After that, he continued to contact Niya without waiting for Iolum's reply, and also told Niya about the incident together with the causes and consequences, and emphatically reminded Niya to guard the Tower of Time and wait for his return with peace of mind.
After doing this, Xia Duo continued to check Cliff's relics, and at the same time he waited anxiously for a reply. Niya's reply arrived immediately without any delay.
She only replied "I know, I'll wait for you at the Tower of Time" and there was nothing more to say, but Sha Duo believed that Niya could make the most correct choice.
On the other hand, it was Iolum. His reply was delayed after Niya, which made Sha Duo couldn't help but wonder. Could this exploration of the ruins of the Star Boundary Dream be a conspiracy created by Iolum?
Although rationally, Xia Duo felt that it was unlikely to be Iolum, but in this situation, he still couldn't help but think about it.
Once suspicion arises in people's minds, it is really difficult to suppress it.
Another object of his suspicion is Thorne. As the eternal Holy Spirit, his relationship with the main plane is weak, and he may have betrayed Cliff to some astral forces for certain benefits.
As for the Giles Tower, Shado didn't have much doubt. After all, people died at the Giles Tower, and it was no secret that Shado and Cliff were coming to the Giles Tower.
Outside of Giles Tower, only Shado knows about Lord Lesen and his son, and Iolum knows about it, and there may be more others.
Since it's not a secret, wouldn't it be stupid to trick people into killing them?
Furthermore, if it was really Giles Tower, there would be no need for any astral journey, just trick it in and kill it directly.
Shado believed that even a great arcanist would find it difficult to effectively resist in other people's mage towers. Simply put, if Cliff entered the Tower of Time, Shado was confident of killing him.
Of course, the suspicion of Giles Tower cannot be completely ruled out, maybe it is using this dark effect under the lights!
As for why he didn't kill him directly, but deceived him into the star realm first, maybe it was to create a special cause of death!
In any case, being wiped out in ashes is not the normal way of death that Xia Duo understands.
For a moment, Xia Duo's mind was in chaos. He had always hated this kind of foggy incident. With his own lack of strength and background, he could easily become someone else's pawn without even realizing it.
This current situation can be said to be the most bizarre and uncontrollable event he has ever encountered since time travel.
After inspection, it was found that all of Cliff's relics had lost their synchronic state, and were not in the same state as magic items taken directly from a living person.
Rather, it is a completely independent dead thing!
This also means that there is a high probability that Cliff is really dead!
Before, he had a sense of luck, thinking that this might be some kind of appearance, and that deep down it was Cliff who used this seemingly bizarre method to escape.
But magic items don't lie, and their current state is the most direct evidence.
"What should I do?"
Just when Xia Duo was feeling anxious and uneasy, thinking about whether to just grab a handful and run away, the magic network vibration signal unique to the teleportation spell suddenly appeared in the projection hall.
At this moment, Xia Duo was struggling in his heart. He himself was also suspicious of this situation, and it was not small. The three of them went to the star realm, and he was the only one who was still alive - at least until Thorne showed up!
No matter how you look at it, it's a bit abnormal.
Only God knows what he will do when the transmission is completed. If it is an accident, then it is good to say that as a senior arcanist, there is a high probability that nothing will happen to him.
But if there is a conspiracy involved, let alone a senior arcanist, even a great arcanist would have to shed half of his skin if a scapegoat were thrown at him.
And if he runs away, for now, Shado is sure to run away, but if he runs away like this, wouldn't he confirm his suspicion, and then there will be basically no place for him in Netheril
.
As a native of his hometown, Xia Duo has a hometown complex, and traveling across time was not what he expected, but since he has already traveled through time, he can just accept the situation as it comes. The place where he feels at ease is my hometown.
Today's Saville Territory and Daxia Territory are his second hometown. If possible, he still doesn't want to give up so easily.
With all kinds of thoughts lingering in Xia Duo's heart, he did not choose to run away, but chose to stay here and wait for his destiny.
Although he doesn't want to admit it, it is his personal space that gives him the greatest confidence.
If there is no room for him to take with him, he will most likely not choose to stay.
After all, there is hope only when you are alive. If a person dies, then his hometown, his relatives, and his rural sentiments will all be empty.
And in this magical world, the most terrifying thing is not death, but the fact that the soul cannot live in peace after death!
How to make a choice? Xia Duo has already made a decision in his mind.
