Chapter 3419 Continuous No Results Elemental Assistance
While Xia Duo continued to explore deep underground, he also made fine adjustments to the movement route according to the positions of several suspected underdark passages synchronized by the rear magician, so as to avoid detours as much as possible.
Soon he arrived at the first marked location, and as expected, it turned out to be just an address fault zone. It might be called an underground fissure, but it was still far from the real passage to the Underdark.
Xia Duo also quickly passed by and re-examined the locations marked after that, but still found nothing.
During this process, the alliance's rear continued to mark new suspected locations for further review. As a result, the first floor (the level ten miles underground of Elan) was detected, and more and more locations were awaiting review.
Xia Duo felt that continuing like this was not an option. There must be a more efficient detection or inspection method, otherwise, he might be busy to death without finding any new hairstyles.
Thinking like this, he simply stopped and concentrated on thinking. If he could find a more efficient method, it would be easy not to come back in this short time.
It was at this time that the Hou Dharma Master sent another message. This time, the suspected location to be reviewed was still synchronized, but at the same time, there was an additional message, and that was——
Based on the relevant documents preserved by Elam and Sruvend, the scope of suspicion was narrowed down and several locations were highlighted, all of which correspond to records of drow gathering events in the surface area.
Although Sluvende also conducted detailed inspections of these areas at that time, he did not find the Underdark passage, and there have never been any cases of drow suddenly appearing in those locations.
But since they had to exhaust all means, Sluvende and Elan also brought out these records that were difficult to distinguish between true and false, and finally handed them over to Shado.
"well!"
Xia Duo let out a long sigh and decided to check these highlighted locations first, and then think of other solutions.
…
With the slightest expectation, Xia Duo deviated from the original route and went straight to the first marked location. The hope was good, but the result was disappointing.
The first highlighted location was not even a geological anomaly, and repeated inspections did not reveal any traces of magic used to hide or disguise it.
If this is the passage to the Underdark, it can only mean that the magic level of the Illuminati has reached the sky. In this case, the countries in the alliance may consider evacuating the main plane now.
The actual alliance is still resisting, and Shado does not think that the magic level of the Illuminati can be high. They may have mastered some secrets in the time field, but in the field of conventional magic, they can never surpass the alliance.
Otherwise, the Illuminati would have ruled the Northland openly, instead of hiding in the dark all the time. They could only carry out terrorist attacks to resist when they were hit by various attacks, but could not effectively fight back. Until now, they were forced out of the country.
Magic's last ditch effort.
Therefore, if no abnormality is found after repeated inspections, it can basically be considered that there is no abnormality.
This was the first marked position. As for the rest, Xia Duo actually didn't have much expectations, but he still went over and checked them carefully one by one.
It was exactly what he thought: nothing unusual.
So next, Xia Duo slacked off a lot in using [Wide Area Detection] for detection, and he concentrated on thinking about other feasible detection or inspection methods.
This thought really made him think of it!
Earth elements, or earth element elders who have wisdom and can communicate, of course earth element lords can also be used, and they are better.
The underground soil and rock environment is for the earth element, just like the air environment is for humans, and the water environment is for fish, they cannot adapt to it.
If it is an earth element elder or lord with command, there is no shortage of detection methods in this environment. If he can find one, two or more people to help, he will probably be much more efficient than he is now.
So where can I find earth element elders or lords?
Shado immediately thought of the arcane masters of Netheril's [Hidden Hand] organization, followed by the Maired family of Calimshan in the south.
In the former, he saw with his own eyes those arcanists who summoned the earth element when they came to the southern border to repair the magic network. At that time, they opened an east-west direction to guide the water element leaked from the final repair node to the Wolfburg River in the west.
of the new river.
This is the current Linshui River in the Shado territory. The elemental fountain at the source is the trace left by the [Hidden Hand] arcanist to repair the magic network.
As for the Mairead family, although the elemental bloodline of Calimshan is dominated by wind, followed by fire, when they open up the elemental plane, they only have the wind war, which means that generally they only open up the elemental plane of wind.
But Calimshan's blood magic has long been developed to the stage of general magic. Has it been that elemental planes with other attributes have never been developed in so many years?
Even if it is not developed, has it never been discovered?
Calimshan started out as an elemental creature, and even their bloodline comes from elemental creatures. Shado doesn't believe that there is no earth element there. It may be very rare, but it shouldn't be impossible.
So Shado regarded Calimshan as a secondary option.
But no matter whether it is primary or secondary, he contacted them at the same time. After all, the underground area to be detected next is really not small. Of course, the more earth elements used for detection, the better. How can it be too much!
…
When contacting [Hidden Hand], Shado not only sent a message to Master Orlins, who had exchanged contact information at the time, to explain the reason, but also asked Seven Towers and Iolum to help coordinate or find other possible sources of earth elements.
In short, he made full use of the resources in Netheril.
When contacting the Mairead family, Shado not only explained the situation to the Mairead family and even Talaf, the observer on behalf of Calimshan in the North, but also sought more sources of earth elements from mages from various countries in the alliance command network.
.
The first person to reply to Shado was his friend Taraf. Almost immediately, he sent a message and expressed his willingness to help inquire about the family or other Calimshan families. Taraf is not the first heir of the Mairead family, and his knowledge of the family's secrets is limited.
Giving a positive response immediately is the limit of what he can do.
Sha Duo expressed his gratitude for this.
The second person to reply was undoubtedly his teacher Iolum, and Iolum's reply was more direct, sending two elder-level earth elemental essences directly to Yongle City.
Xia Duo's body received it and then transferred it to the incarnation through the portable space. However, his research on elemental spirits was very limited, and more of it was focused on wind elemental spirits, and he had even less understanding of earth elemental spirits.
And few.
And the most important thing is that he doesn't know how to enslave or persuade a wise earth element elder to do things for him.
As for how to turn earth elemental spirits into living earth elemental creatures, it is very simple. The existence of elemental spirits shows that the elemental creatures are not completely dead. As long as they are placed in a suitable environment, they can recover on their own.
Corresponding to the earth element essence, it is probably to provide enough earth element (energy) for the element essence. This is not a problem at all for Xia Duo, who is holding the robe of longing.
