However, before Shado could wait for Anglin to receive a reply from Archmage Fustum, a wave of teleportation suddenly appeared in the open space ahead that had been baptized by elements and energy turbulence due to spell resistance.
This was almost the time when Xia Duo was most sensitive, so without hesitation, he immediately ordered the nearby high-level mages to jointly cast spells, and used completely different willpower to forcibly create a [Delayed Teleportation] spell source point.
Compared with the previous big movement of elves collectively teleporting, the movement of this teleportation is much smaller, and judging from its fluctuations, it has a very obvious Nese magic style.
Sha Duo guessed that Archmage Fustum might have come in person, but he had to guard against other possibilities. During the delay in transmission, he continued to instruct everyone to cast spells for protection.
In this way, even if any powerful enemy comes, there will at least be a chance to delay.
But just when everyone had just completed the protective magic and the unknown teleporter had not yet arrived, a golden elf with the appearance of a mage suddenly appeared next to the elf prisoners.
This teleportation with almost no fluctuations may also be some other means. In short, the appearance of this golden elf mage was beyond Xia Duo's expectations.
Just this one moment made him feel as if he was dead. For a moment, his thoughts were running to the extreme, and even time seemed to slow down.
Through the high-level mage terminals on the psychic link, he could clearly see the joy on the face of the golden elf mage who was originally captured, as well as the fearful expressions on the other moon elf captives.
Of course, there is also the undisguised, dazzling magical aura of the new golden elf mage, and the stern look in his eyes that shows no fear despite being in enemy territory.
"not good!"
Xia Duo immediately thought of a possibility, and he forcibly controlled his subconscious desire to order the high-level mage on the scene to take action.
Even though he was not in human form at this moment, but in the form of amorphous flowing water, he still felt his scalp numb.
A normal mage level is difficult to see with the naked eye. Knowledge is hidden in the mind, and the will to operate the magic network is an intrinsic attribute.
No one would write their level on their forehead, but the true identity of a spellcaster can be seen from some indirect things.
For example, whether the magic aura is strong or not, if it is strong, it means that there is powerful magic in the body, or it contains powerful magic items. Which kind it is is also easy to distinguish.
Different spells, different magic items, and even different people have different magical auras. Basically, those who can reach high-level wizards will be familiar with these.
The golden elf mage who arrived at this time not only had the strong aura of permanent spells, but also the aura of powerful magic items, and he did not hide it at all.
If you insist that you are not strong, you will not be able to pass the test in your heart.
Perhaps fate really played a joke on Xia Duo. What he wanted to send just now was most likely his own support, but he was delayed.
The first person to arrive was a powerful golden elf who looked like a high mage.
——Don’t act rashly!
Shado immediately sent out active consciousness information in the spiritual link. At this moment, he could only place his hope in the unspoken rules of Netheril and Cormanthor regarding the use of power at the level of high mage or great arcanist.
If you and others don't take the initiative to offend, they probably won't be attacked by the other party!
The extremely long three seconds are even more unbearable in the state of spiritual linking, where the collective consciousness is connected and thinking together.
"I took Steel away. He is a descendant of Galanord and should not be treated dishonorably!" the new golden elf mage said calmly.
Just at this moment, the unknown teleportation delayed by Xia Duo finally arrived. When he saw the person coming, Xia Duo breathed a sigh of relief.
The person coming was none other than the Archmage Fustum he had guessed before.
Fustum, who had just appeared, did not seem to realize that his teleportation had been delayed. Instead, he looked at the golden elf mage in front of him as if he were facing a formidable enemy. He reluctantly bowed slightly, saluted, and then expressed his gratitude.
He said forcefully:
"Sir Jelinis, Mr. Badigal asked me to tell you that you have the dignity to retreat now, otherwise -"
Before he finished speaking, Fulstem suddenly showed an astonished expression and continued: "You can take Steel away, but the other elves are already our prisoners. If you still want them, send someone to Severton."
Let’s talk in detail!”
"snort--"
Jelinis raised his head and glanced at the sky above his head, snorted coldly, and without saying another word, just left with Steele.
…
It wasn't until the only two golden elves at the scene disappeared that Xia Duo truly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Fustum also let out a long breath. He found Anglin in the crowd, nodded slightly, and then said to everyone:
"You are very good! Now return to the camp! I will take care of these elves!"
"yes!"
Everyone agreed, and Xia Duo also withdrew some of his attention.
At this time, the spiritual link was filled with joyful emotions, and many people began to discuss what additional rewards the Seven Towers would give for these elven captives.
Of course, while the discussion was going on, some people started to disconnect. Previously, they had to link due to circumstances, but now that the mission is over, there is no need to maintain the link and let their secrets leak in vain.
As for Xia Duo himself, he restored his original human form in the water, and then jumped up from the water. At this time, the relatively shallow spiritual connection did not put much burden on his consciousness.
The previous burden seemed to be offset by the shape of the water flow. Now he was flying in the air, surrounded by mist and mist, and he felt infinitely relaxed.
But before Deep Link merged with other high-level mages, the feeling of being almost omnipotent has been lingering in his mind, lingering, which makes him feel a sense of loss.
However, he soon had no intention to think about anything else.
The movement of the magic network, which he had paid attention to before but was temporarily disturbed by the elves' attack, had undergone some unfathomable changes at this moment.
In the middle of the camp, above the square near the portal, a cluster-like area composed of dense magic nets quickly spread and spread to infinity.
It seemed that the magic net had returned to its original appearance, but Xia Duo noticed something strange in it, but it was difficult to tell what the specific difference was.
Therefore, he focused his attention on the spiritual link. At this time, the high-level mages in the spiritual link who had not yet broken the link were also discussing such changes.
In fact, during the previous battle, on the front battlefield far away from the camp, there was information about the magic network anomaly in the spiritual link. However, the people in the link almost completely handed over themselves to Xia Duo, so not many people noticed this.
point.
Now that the battle is over, their subjective consciousness emerges, and they notice the changes in the magic net.
