Chapter 1477 Abnormal performance, life extension begins
In the cemetery, the confrontation between Broad and Savile did not last long, and finally ended with Savile leaving on his own initiative.
And on the other side, Sevington.
The rapid life extension plan based on directional cloning has also been effectively verified on elves. In addition, as the time is approaching the deadline, Akora is pressing hard. Shado also returned to the Tower of Time again and went to Akora via astral projection.
pull.
…
Like the last time I came here, the location where Xia Duo responded to the arrival of the magic circle was still the same secret room as before, but the endless corridor outside was not opened this time.
The female elf official took him directly to the previous reception room. In the reception room were still the three elves from before—King Mian of Akora, Uncle Mian Wang, and Prince Foss.
"Lord Shado, was it your idea to temporarily replace the new plan? Do you know that Akora is on the verge of subversion now? What is your purpose in doing this?"
When Xia Duo arrived, he was not greeted with the gratitude he expected, but with questions from Uncle Mianwang, the military advisor, and the high mage Asbylan.
This made Xia Duo feel astonished and subconsciously looked at Akola Mianwang. Only he and Akola Mianwang were present at what happened that day. Sha Duo himself must not have done anything, so only Akaola Mianwang was present.
But at this time, the crowned king of Akora's eyes were no longer as sharp as when he asked Netheril to change the plan in the secret room. Instead, there was a strong sense of pleading.
The moment Asbylan turned his head, the other party regained his majestic expression, as if that pleading look had never appeared before, and followed Asbyran's words and asked:
"Lord Xia Duo, are you going to put forward any unreasonable conditions this time?"
"I--"
Xia Duo really wanted to curse at this moment, but the pleading look in King Akora's eyes just now was so clear in his memory. What the hell is going on?
However, there is no point in arguing on other people's territory. He simply stated his mission, and this time he did not save face for Akora like last time:
"I came here this time to be entrusted by the Severnton Council to cast a spell to extend the life of the Crowned King!"
Hearing this, the three elves in the reception room didn't look good. Espilan continued to question: "Are there no other conditions?"
"My mission does not include those." Xia Duo said coldly.
"We are running out of time. Will the new plan be available in time? Is it sure it will work?" Asbyland continued to criticize.
By this time, Shado had finally figured out that the new agreement between Netheril and Akora had been signed, and it was unclear whether the family was really unaware or pretending to be unaware.
Moreover, this family seems to have always wanted him to use the previous heart plan. Could it be that the elf named "Dale" is not the other person's biological son?
For a time, Xia Duo thought about a lot. He vaguely felt that he was involved in some conspiracy, but if he insisted on saying there was something wrong, he couldn't tell.
The only thing that was certain was that King Akaola Mian must know something, but the other party did not communicate with him in advance, which made Xia Duo a little annoyed.
Next, he gave no more explanations and just watched in silence Asbilan's performance and the indifference of King Akora.
In the end, Prince Forth couldn't stand it anymore and said, "We have signed a formal agreement with Netheril and I believe they will not deceive us."
But with preconceived notions, Xia Duo still felt that Prince Foss might have some problems. How did he say that - "In this world, how can there be a prince who has been there for forty years!"
Prince Foss has not only been the "Prince" for forty years, but perhaps he does not want the crown prince of Akaola to continue to live, but is forced to support extending the crown prince's life due to the current situation.
It is entirely possible that he is actually planning some conspiracy secretly.
However, Xia Duo did not want to consider the many undercurrents below the surface of the water. He would say whatever he said literally. As long as his side was impeccable, he would still have to resort to tricks on the surface in the end.
And the conspiracy ultimately comes down to its own strength. Unless Akora completely surrenders to Cormanthor, the possibility of their internal conspiracy affecting Netheril is still slim.
As for whether Akola will completely surrender to Comanso and be willing to be the other party's stepping stone, Chateau thinks it is unlikely. Although "I would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of an ox" is a proverb from his hometown, it is about human nature.
.
And elves can undoubtedly be regarded as "people" in a broad sense.
Thinking of this, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little unmotivated. He planned to complete the task and go home as soon as possible, so he looked at King Mian of Akaola again and said directly: "Please also ask King Mian to arrange the environment for me to cast the spell."
Without concealing his impatience in his tone, King Akora stopped Prince Foss and Asbylan's chatter, and then ordered Prince Foss to arrange a palace dinner.
As for Xia Duo, he was led by the previous female elf official to a secret room behind an aisle that must be passed through during the banquet, where he waited to collect blood.
All of Sha Duo's action procedures, except for the details of spells that need to be kept confidential, have been informed to Akora in advance.
In fact, the entire process of his mission was negotiated between Severdon and Akora, leaving little room for Xia Duo to freely express himself.
Therefore, it became more and more apparent that Uncle Mianwang's behavior was too abnormal.
If there is a problem, it should have been raised as early as the negotiation stage. Why bother embarrassing him, the executor of the task!
…
While waiting in the secret room, neither King Mian, Advisor Asbylan, nor Prince Foss looked for Chateau.
This went on until night, when the female elf official reminded Xia Duo that King Mian's blood relatives were about to pass by. At the same time, King Akaola Mian also came to the secret room. Xia Duo then cheered up and prepared to cast spells.
The first is Bloodline Detection. This spell can only be cast in the presence of the Crowned King. This spell originally came from the elves. For this mission, Akora also specially provided an elven magic version of this spell.
There are some differences from the previously translated version of Nese Magic provided by Jilan Tower. As a spellcaster, Shado's most intuitive feeling is that the translated version omits many elements and can only detect whether the targets are related by blood.
The original version of Elf is more comprehensive. In addition to containing all the functions of the translated version provided by Kiran Tower, it also has the function of searching for close blood relatives from a distance and sensing the degree of blood closeness.
Of course, Shado doesn't think that the Nese version is necessarily worse than the Elf version. It may be that Kiran Tower only produced a castrated version, but in fact they still keep the complete version.
