Chapter 920: A Senior Arcanist Suspected to be Mysterious and Missing
From the time Xia Duo contacted the two people from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to the time someone teleported to the vicinity of Lake Macht, the interval was not long.
If we include the time for Pelokan and Mars' report, and the time for Mingshui Chamber of Commerce to make decisions, the only people who can come to the edge of Lake Macht in a short period of time are at least the Archmages.
It is not unimaginable that the Archmage is so bold that he would run into the strange green light that enveloped the entire Lake Macht.
As for the person who came here is not from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, it is possible, but the possibility is not high.
It is easy to distinguish between Elf magic and Nese magic. The person coming must be the Nese mage, but who has nothing to do but the Nese mage is just wandering around here!
There is a high probability that they were sent by the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce.
With this in mind, Xia Duo simply waited by the lake. During this period, he also tried to send a message to the green light, but it seemed that it was not in the same world as the outside world, and he could not get any response at all.
Combined with some of the information that Niya has discovered before, if the mastermind behind the scenes is really an elf, then this place is most likely a mystery lock.
When he thought that this place might become a mysterious ruin in the future, Xia Duo cried bitterly in his heart. Apart from magic, the only connection between the southern border and the core area of Nese was through water.
Lake Macht is a place that must be passed through. If this place becomes the ruins of the Mystery Chain, it will be almost impossible for ordinary ships to pass through. This impact will be far-reaching.
Not only the population introduction plan of Daxia Territory, but also the business environment of Savile Territory and even the border trade of Conifera City will be greatly affected.
Just when Xia Duo was thinking about how to properly solve this situation, a scream suddenly came from the lake near him, and then an embarrassed figure wrapped in water plants flew out of the green light and fell straight to the ground.
On the edge of the lake.
It is indeed a human being, and Sha Duo also recognized this person's identity - the chief consultant of the Bright Water Chamber of Commerce and the senior arcanist Said!
More than half a year ago, Xia Duo returned to the southern border from Severton by boat, passed by Lake Macht, and met a group of people from the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. After discovering that the fishmen were out of control, they called in an investigation team, led by Xia Duo.
Chris, the pioneer Vincent's uncle whom he met in the green field plane.
Of course, the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce itself also sent people to investigate. One was Timothy, the archmage who specializes in psychic magic, and the other was Said.
Timothy was very interested in [Arcane Puzzle] and chatted a lot with Shado, while Said didn't care much about [Arcane Puzzle]. At that time, he heard that there was a kind of thing that could make fish people develop wisdom.
The strange aquatic plants came here from Severton.
Shado and Said just met each other and barely said a word.
But what makes Xia Duo have an outstanding memory? Almost instantly he recognized that the person in front of him who fell to the ground in embarrassment was none other than Said!
A senior arcanist can be said to be the closest thing to a great arcanist. He is indeed a very brave man!
…
Seeing that Said did not get up after falling to the ground, Xia Duo realized that the situation might be a little bad, and quickly stepped forward to check. When he got closer, he discovered that Said was not only surrounded by water plants, but also the strings of the magic network!
The arcanist can indeed expand the condensed and curled arcane fire into a miniature magic web. This state can greatly enhance the arcanist's spellcasting ability.
But it is very unsafe to maintain this state all the time. If the core is injured by the enemy, it is not impossible for the arcane fire to collapse.
Theoretically, the String of the Magic Network is extremely difficult to damage. Even if the Magic Network is torn when creating arcane fire, it must be under special circumstances like the Advanced Laboratory, but——
Although Arcane Fire is rewoven from the strings of the Magic Web, it is essentially called Arcane Fire because of its special structure.
This is also a structurally determined property to a certain extent.
Therefore, as long as the source of the Arcane Fire collapses, even if the String of the Magic Network is still the String of the Magic Network, it will no longer be the Arcane Fire.
During the Snow Melting Competition, one of the Cormanthor elf mages participating in the competition cast a spell that could destroy the source of the arcane fire, launching an attack through the micro-magic network spread out by the arcane fire.
Because the relationship was also related to his own interests, Xia Duo was very impressed.
Now he is only one step away from a senior arcanist. He knows very well that even a senior arcanist's arcane fire is not powerful enough to be immune to attacks.
It seems that there is a real danger in the green light. Even a senior arcanist like Said could only barely escape with all his strength.
If Xia Duo were not here, it would not be unusual for him to be snatched away by a wolf. It would be too funny for a senior arcanist to die in such a way.
…
Since it was a projected body, physical contact could not be made. Xia Duo was also worried that rash contact might cause Said's passive protection, so he only used spells to communicate.
But this time there was still no success. From being so close, Xia Duo could clearly see that it was a communication management spell published in the monthly magazine of the Arcane Law Federation together with the background communication of the magic network.
Xia Duo has also learned this spell. Its function is similar to the response interface of a mobile phone. You can choose to answer or reject.
Of course, even if you choose to answer, you will only receive spell information such as voice or video, not real-time communication like a phone call.
Without this spell, the Magic Network background communication can be used as harassing text messages.
This spell is undoubtedly quite practical, but in the current situation, it has become an obstacle to communication. Based on this reaction, Shado also judged that Said most likely lost his independent consciousness, which in layman's terms was comatose.
Since direct communication with spells could not be achieved, Xia Duo tried to cast a spell to make a sound. Although the sound was created by a spell, it was no longer a spell and would not be blocked by communication management spells.
Only when the sound is too loud can the passive protection spell be triggered.
It's just that Xia Duo's idea is reasonable, but Said's condition may be really serious. He called several times without any response. If it weren't for the free magic network strings floating around him, which were obviously arcane fires, Xia Duo would have
Think he is dead.
Or it’s not far from death!
Said fell from the air while lying on his stomach. He may have subconsciously covered his face with his hands. With a little support, he didn't suffocate to death, but the situation was also very bad.
The reason why life and death can only be judged by the free magic web strings floating around him is because he doesn't move at all. Even if he is unconscious, there will be obvious physical changes when he breathes.
But now there is none, which means the breathing may have been very weak.
After hesitating for a while, Shado decided to suppress Said's magic items and protective spells first. Of course, this required his body to do this. Although the projection had the ability to cast spells, it was a projection after all and was not as good as the body.
He must be rescued. Sha Duo could not let a senior arcanist die in the southern border, especially since this person was probably called here by him.
…
After dispelling the projection, Sha Duo's body also opened its eyes. Niya immediately asked with concern: "How is the situation? Who teleported here?"
Niya cannot interpret the passive consciousness information in the spiritual link and can only rely on Sha Duo's active sharing. Sha Duo has just disbanded the projection. Niya may have some intuitive feelings, but specific information is difficult to obtain.
While explaining to him the situation he had just encountered through the spiritual link, Chateau stood up and came to Bishop Ambril. He said solemnly: "There is an emergency and I need the bishop's help."
"No problem! What do you want me to do?" Ambril agreed without hesitation.
He simply couldn't refuse a situation that was more urgent than the overflow of fishmen!
