On one side is a human Grand Arcanist who is proficient in spell duels and has a full understanding of elven magic. On the other side is just a senior mage who does not even have a chance to fight for his life if he is not a high mage.
The young golden elf was helpless against Shado's suppression. At the last moment when he could still make the decision, he uttered, "My grandfather is the Crowned King of Ilisel of Cormanthor. He dares to attack me. I don't want to think about it."
Any consequences?"
"The grandson of King Elisir?"
Xia Duo's heart skipped a beat. Hildalanna said before that the target had a special identity, but she didn't expect it to be so special. However, for the Seven Towers, the more it catches the current elves from the special identities, the more advantageous it will be.
.
Badigal obviously did not expect that the target's identity turned out to be the grandson of King Ilisel. If he had known it before, he might have hesitated, but now that he had taken action, it was too late to regret it.
But one thing he thought was the same as Xia Duo, that is, the more special the target's identity, the more advantageous it would be for the Seven Towers.
But now the plan may have changed. If possible, it would be best to capture this Prince Cormanthor back to Netheril to face trial.
"Lord Chateau——"
"Um?"
"I may have to trouble you next."
Badigal quickly explained his temporary decision, changed his original plan of only taking back the scroll of Nese, and kidnapped the target directly.
"Take it away directly?"
Shado couldn't help but be surprised by Badigal's bold idea. If it was just to recapture the scroll of Nese, Cormanthor might respond with silence, but if Elithel's grandson was kidnapped, then even if the other side wanted to pretend,
Death is unlikely.
not to mention--
Shado glanced at Hildalanna next to him, and Badigal also understood what Shado meant, but at this moment, he would rather take the risk of intensifying the conflict with Cormanso in order to retain the target.
If the target is just an ordinary high-ranking family member, Cormanthor's response or even counterattack will be relatively limited. Even if it is directly confirmed that the Cormanthor elves stole the Nese treasure, it will just be a lot of back and forth.
But once it comes to the crowned king of Ilisel, which is almost a belief-like existence of Cormanthor, no stain is allowed, at least not on the surface, then the opponent will probably erase all traces at all costs.
At that time, the conflict will not be caused by Netheril trying to regain its own treasures, but by deliberately provoking disputes out of selfish interests or personal grudges.
Chateau understood Badigal's firm will after a moment of thought. He usually considered his opponents and enemies from the perspective of a rational person, but sometimes irrational factors such as emotions and face would dominate.
Of course, not all irrational factors are irrational; they may be in line with some huge interests based on rational considerations.
Speaking of which, if this golden elf who claims to be the "grandson of Crown Prince Ilythel" is brought back to Netheril, there may be doubts about his identity in the future, but at least he will survive.
Otherwise, there is no guarantee that Cormanso will silence him.
"We are saving you!"
Thinking like this, Sha Duo thought, and the perception field that had completely suppressed the opponent's spellcasting immediately began to undergo more changes. The dense magic network began to weave brand new spells under the influence of Sha Duo's will.
At this time, the strings of the magic network gathered together, emitting a strong magical aura. The eyes of the golden elf who called himself Prince Cormanso were full of fear. He, who was from a good background, had already recognized the possible effects of the next spell.
Just because he recognized it, he became more and more frightened. For the first time since the surprise attack, he felt extremely regretful about the idea of leaving the guardian behind to secretly watch the duel.
The next moment the spell took shape, a ray of spiritual light burst out from the source of the spell and shot directly towards the brain of the golden elf, which had no protection at all.
In this regard, no matter what the true identity of this golden elf is, he has lost any ability to resist at this moment, whether it is his body or his will.
"Take out all your belongings, including those in the storage space, and throw them to the ground!" Sha Duo ordered.
To be honest, this is the first time that he has controlled the body and mind of a person (an elf) so completely. This feeling - it is really evil.
The other party was like a puppet on strings at the moment. Whatever he said, the other party would do whatever he said. Even though he was manipulating the other party as a spellcaster at this moment, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable chill welling up in his heart.
Today, if he can manipulate others in this way, others may not be able to manipulate him in this way.
Of course, Xia Duo did not regret doing this. At this moment, the two sides were hostile, and no matter how much he did, it would not be too much. After all, there was no so-called prisoner of war convention in this world.
But this experience made him more determined, that is, he must become stronger, whether it is himself or all the combined forces that can be used outside himself.
Only by being stronger than others can you not be bullied by others and can you have the qualifications to express sympathy and mercy.
As for now——
Xia Duo showed no mercy. Every time the other party took out something, he controlled his personal space to completely overlap with that location. Maybe the other party was not lying and it was really Prince Cormanso.
Books, secret scrolls, accessories, rare objects, equipment, it was the first time for Xia Duo to see trophies of such quality. When he saw a gold page that was about the size of an A4 paper and covered with silver runes, he was always worried.
A heart finally fell into place.
Hildalanna didn't favor them either, she really had a scroll of resistance!
Xia Duo put away the Naise Scroll and put it into his personal space along with other items taken out by the other party. He did not order the other party to stop until he began to take off his clothes without hesitation.
"Okay, Hildalanna can't stop that Holy Hammer warrior for long." Sha Duo reminded.
At this time, less than half a minute had passed since the start of the raid, but the Holy Hammer warrior was in the arena. Hildalanna immediately caught him after paralyzing the arena's protection.
Although the distance between the two sides was not far at this time, it was not close either. At least it was not close enough for the Holy Hammer Warriors to take the initiative. The most important thing was that from the very beginning when they decided to launch a surprise attack, the three of them had done enough to hide themselves.
Although it is not the hiding action itself, the hiding of one's true location is far beyond what one or even several Holy Hammer warriors can find in a short period of time.
If it is not necessary to disable the arena's protection, you can even leave before the opponent notices.
At this time, all the Holy Hammer Warrior can do is actually go to protect the Prince of Cormanthor at close range, or counter the compound field spell jointly maintained by Chateau and Badigal.
But as the old saying goes, "If you defend for a long time, you will lose." Hildalanna may not try her best to intercept. In addition, Prince Cormanso, whom Hildalanna mentioned before, also has a high-level mage guardian who may rush out at any time.
