In fact, the real difficulty lies in how to approach Aquiline without alerting him. The next steps are much simpler. The key is to guide the spell from the Tower of Time to come.
The general idea has been decided, only some details need to be considered.
While discussing, Shado was constantly thinking about how to learn how to enter the shadow plane from Bishop Ambril.
He does not have the same reverence for God as Ai Burke. He feels that the abilities that God can bestow must also have certain rules!
As long as there are specific rules, they can be learned and converted into specific spells of the Netherese arcane magic system.
Soon, Shado and Aibok had already discussed the details, and they just had to go to the temple tomorrow to confirm with Bishop Ambril.
There’s plenty of time!
And tonight, Xia Duo needs a good rest!
…
The next day, when Xia Duo woke up from his sleep, he felt refreshed and showed no signs of staying up all night the day before.
"Tower Spirit, report the energy reserve status of the Tower of Time!"
"Agent Xia Duo, the current energy reserves are insufficient. The wind element pool is 6%, the water element pool is 9%, the earth element pool is 9%, the fire element pool is 4%, the positive energy pool is 3%, and the negative energy pool is 3%."
Although the reserves are still insufficient in terms of total amount, in terms of growth rate, the positive energy with the largest increase increased by 200%, and the others with the smallest increase also increased by 50%!
congratulations!
It's just that we can't stop working, stop production, and have power outages like yesterday. Some elf fruit wine is the next best thing. Anyway, it is produced and sold by the Tower of Time and digested internally.
The most important thing is for the Tower of Time to resume normal operation, start construction, and put into production as soon as possible. Otherwise, the Tower of Time will be completely bankrupt by the time the preliminary repair work is completed.
Although there is still a big funding gap even if construction starts, Xia Duo has no doubt about the profitability of the Tower of Time if it can be replenished.
…
Savile Town, Temple of the Lord of Glory, side apse.
This was originally the place where the temple stored sacred objects and magic weapons, but today all the items that originally existed here were cleared away and a temporary altar was placed instead.
Although it is only a temporary altar, the main material has already been made. It is a blue-gray stone cylinder about one meter high and one meter in diameter at the bottom.
It is engraved with strange symbols that are mysterious and complex, and seem to contain some kind of regularity. These symbols are old and new, but they don't look out of place at all.
Under the divine light, it looks particularly solemn.
As noon approached, Bishop Ambril was still in front of the altar, kneeling on one knee and praying since the morning without moving at all.
Not far behind him, near the door, Sha Duo and Ai Boke silently watched and waited.
In the morning, after Xia Duo had breakfast, he called Aiboike to come with him, but he didn't expect that entering the shadow plane would require such a long process.
After waiting for several hours, he was already a little impatient. If it weren't for the holy light above the altar that made him feel a powerful force reviving, he would have wanted to leave first and then come back when the ceremony was over.
Suddenly, Bishop Ambril shouted, "Under the light, there must be a shadow!"
In an instant, the undulating sacred light hanging high above the altar suddenly fell down. However, when the light fell on the altar, it did not fill the entire hall like water pouring down.
Instead, a very rich shadow is projected in front of the altar!
Immediately afterwards, the shadow suddenly expanded and rose, like a pure black curtain erected in front of the altar!
Seeing this scene, Xia Duo knew what shadow assassins Aibo was talking about before. There was a high probability that their abilities would not be able to be used in the temple of the Lord of Glory!
"That's it!"
Bishop Ambril stood up, looked at Shado and Aibo, and said solemnly, "My lord is the Lord of radiance and the Lord of order, and the shadows are also under my Lord's order!"
Aibo walked up and said hello first, "Thank you, Bishop!"
Then he looked at the pure black curtain curiously and asked: "Is this the portal leading to the shadow plane? It seems that you can't perceive the scene on the other side?"
Bishop Ambril wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile: "If the shadow plane you are talking about refers to the shadow of our world, then this is it! As for why I can't perceive the scene on the opposite side, I don't know.
, this portal is shaped by my Lord’s power and is not controlled by me.”
After saying that, Ambril looked at Xia Duo seriously, "Lord Xia Duo, are you sure you want to go there with us? In fact, the two of us were certain to catch him in the past, so you don't need to take this risk!"
"Yes! I definitely want to go there with you!"
In order to ensure the success of the operation, Xia Duo decisively rejected the other party's kindness. This was not a fatal decision. Under the protection of the Tower of Time, he did not worry about his own safety.
"In this case -" Seeing Xia Duo's resolute attitude, Ambril stopped trying to dissuade him and said, "I need to make some preparations. If you need to prepare, you can do it now and set off on time at noon!"
"good!"
Aibok didn't need to prepare anything else. Instead, it was Sha Duo who needed to return to the Tower of Time and let the tower spirit add protective magic to himself.
Although the Tower of Time can directly project its power here, it spans such a long distance and even includes the chaotic area of the magic network. That kind of consumption is something that Xia Duo can avoid if he can.
…
After a while, Sha Duo returned from the Tower of Time and came to the small hall at the side and rear of the main temple again. Aibo Ke was quietly leaning against the wall with his eyes closed and meditating.
A ray of arcane power twined around the fingertips, as if to soothe the mood in this way.
Bishop Ambril hadn't come over yet, so Shado followed Ai Burke's example and leaned against the wall, then closed his eyes and meditated, but what he was playing with was the [Pioneer Scepter].
Whenever possible in the future, he would be prepared to hold this scepter in his hand.
Psychic magic is so evil! Freedom of thought can be said to be the absolute bottom line for Laixiaduo!
He doesn't care if someone uses foreign objects to seduce or coerce him, but he absolutely hates being directly controlled by others. This is simply intolerable.
Sha Duo was very grateful to Her Royal Highness the Princess who was already a Grand Arcanist. It was definitely sincerity and deep meaning to give her a scepter that was immune to psychic spells.
He was looking forward to what role these pioneers would play!
…
Soon, Xia Duo and Aibo didn't wait long. A "stomp" sound came from outside the hall from far to near.
Xia Duo opened his eyes and looked at the door with some confusion, but his confusion did not last for a few seconds and immediately turned into surprise——
