Originally, if the suspected alien dragon incident had not been discovered through comprehensive testing, Xia Duo would not have considered the Holy Golden Dragon Empire for quite some time. Only when the main plane developed to a certain extent in the future would he consider communicating with the outside world.
The earth is still searching for aliens. Everyone in the magical world already knows about the existence of alien dragons. How could they not want to communicate with them?
Whether it is trade, magic exchange, or war exchange, it is all exchange. As long as there is exchange, it will definitely promote the progress of both parties.
Severington, in the Colosseum.
The race to melt the snow is still going on, and Shado has not been shaken by the "alien dragon" incident. Apart from receiving memories from Savile to improve his understanding of the Holy Golden Dragon Empire, all he has to do now is to wait.
After the comprehensive inspection is completed and the number of suspected alien dragons is determined, if there is only one, then some action must be taken. It may not be a direct arrest. He prefers to communicate first. If the communication fails, it will not be too late to arrest.
.
Of course, he alone has no say in this regard, he still has to consider Qita's ideas. If Qita insists on arresting him directly, then he may also compromise.
After all, even if he is missing, Seven Towers will definitely think of other ways to deal with the alien dragon, but without the participation of the war spell platform, it is not safe. Rather than that, it is better for Xia Duo to compromise a little!
…
On the other side, Horn failed to get the results he wanted from Chateau. After returning, he immediately went to Gustav Tower to discuss with Badigal.
In the end, both parties decided to postpone further testing and urged each territory to complete blood sample collection as soon as possible. In the face of the ultimate technology in the bloodline field, the problem of demons was not a problem at all.
For humans, transforming into a demon may only extend their lifespan by a few hundred years, and there are still various disadvantages. However, once you master the ultimate bloodline technology, you can extend your life by not to mention hundreds or thousands of years, and even immortality is not impossible.
In this case, this matter is no longer the business of the Gilan Tower family, it can even be said that the entire Seven Towers and the entire Netheril will benefit from this.
The reason why Horn and Badigal decided to postpone further testing is to determine as soon as possible whether there is a second case of dragons pretending to be humans in Netheril.
Once the result comes out, no matter what it is, the next direction of this matter will not be based on Shado's personal will, but the collective will of Netheril.
Even if Xia Duo does not agree to assist, Seven Towers is absolutely sure to convince others to build a movable war spell platform in a short period of time.
It's just that the longer this matter is delayed, the greater the changes will become. If possible, the Seven Towers still hope to get Xia Duo's support.
…
Five days later.
The snow-melting competition is still going on, but the motorcycle design competition led by Daxia in the Southern Territory has come to an end a few days ago, with good contestants emerging in both the racing and load-carrying units.
Xia Duo also took the time to present awards to the winners of the competition. As for the arcane competition within the Tower of Time, it is still continuing and is expected to end at the same time as the Snow Melting Competition later this month.
Severton, Azure Manor.
Five days later, Horn came to visit again, and Chateau knew he had to make a decision this time.
As soon as the two parties sat down in the reception room, Horn took out the preliminary inspection report he had prepared in advance, pushed it in front of Sha Duo, and then directly continued the topic that he left unfinished last time:
"The preliminary comprehensive inspection has been completed. It lasted nearly half a month. Almost every Nese person was detected, and only one dragon of the kind mentioned last time was found!"
"Really!"
Xia Duo was actually not surprised at all by this result. Of course, he would not be surprised if he discovered a few more. There is only a difference between zero and multiple times, and there is no essential difference between one and multiple.
Xia Duocai picked up the test report from the table and was a little surprised by the report. He didn't expect that the Seven Towers would come up with such a thing so quickly.
It is said to be a report, but in fact there is not much intermediate process, only some summary results, and it is not enough to fill two pages. The first thing Xia Duo paid attention to was not the similar incident suspected of alien dragon, but the beginning of the abyss breath.
Test results.
There are quite a few, there are twenty cases in total, and this is still a preliminary test of a large sample. Twenty cases means that abyssal aura has been detected in blood samples from at least twenty areas.
However, Xia Duo had already expected such a result. After all, there were drow summoning demons to cause trouble during the snow melting competition a few years ago. Later, the incident subsided, but the impact may not be completely eliminated.
Xia Duo himself was infected by the abyss breath, and went to the Grand Temple to purify it several times. If someone fails to purify in time, there may be hidden dangers. This is actually the original source of the demon - being infected by the abyss breath or demon blood.
However, the lack of timely purification should be a very rare case. It is more likely that someone is studying demon-related spells privately. After all, the drow war was so big back then, and everyone could see the fighting power of demons.
There is still a lot of abyssal aura left in the territory of Danzo. In addition to humans, elves, and dwarves, it is possible that they will not study demons in private.
In fact, studying demons is not a taboo in the main plane. It is only regarded as evil because it is widely used by drow. Normal research will not distinguish between good and evil.
Therefore, it is not unusual to detect the abyssal aura. If it were not detected at all, Chateau would be surprised and worried!
I was surprised that there was no Nese mage studying demons, and I was worried that someone was cutting corners and falsifying this test.
Now that the abyssal aura was detected, he breathed a sigh of relief, because detecting the abyssal aura did not necessarily mean that he was a demon, and he would still be retested later.
After deducting those researchers and accidental infections, the remaining ones are likely to be demons.
Thinking of this, Xia Duo also asked Horn with some curiosity: "Abyssal aura has been detected in so many places, have they started re-examination? Have any demons been found?"
"The re-examination has begun. As for the demon descendant——"
Speaking of this, Horn hesitated for a moment, but thinking that Xia Duo would know about this kind of thing sooner or later, he did not hide it, "It is confirmed that there are two demons in the Zenis area, and the others have not been discovered yet."
"Is it the Nese people or the elves that come and go?" Xia Duo asked again.
"We haven't sent anyone over to investigate yet. It should be the elf merchants coming and going."
These words made Horn himself a little unconfident. It is true that Zenis is a trade hub, but it is more connected to Ascor. If elven merchants can go to Zenis, it is actually more profitable to come to Severton.
Zenis is indeed an elf merchant with whom he has dealings, but there are very few of them. The possibility that there are two demons by such a coincidence is relatively low. If so, it means that the demons have begun to infiltrate into Netheril.
If not, the result would be even worse, which means that the demons have already begun to infiltrate into Netheril.
