Chapter 958: Fortune and misfortune lie ahead, the preview is over
In fact, Xia Duo's heart was not as calm as he showed, but as he and Niya said, it's already here, so what else can be done!
Unless you don't want to hang out in Netheril, you can only accept the arrangement of the Seven Towers.
Although this experience is somewhat unpleasant, seriously speaking, it is not a bad thing. The celebration will be attended by envoys from all over the world. It is not like the Seven Pagodas have to award awards in front of foreign envoys. The target of commendation is unfavorable!
If you really want to do this, it will be too inconsistent with the "personality" that Seven Towers has always shown!
Strictly speaking, this matter should be considered a good thing for Xia Duo, at least from the perspective of the Seven Towers, and even from the perspective of most other people.
What Sha Duo is really worried about is not the celebration itself. There may be something "troublesome" in it, but that should be aimed at the enemy, not his own people. The real trouble is the subsequent impact.
As the saying goes, "Misfortune lies behind blessings, and misfortune lies behind blessings." What Xia Duo can see now is at least a bit too high-profile.
However, this kind of worry can easily be transformed into determination, which is determined not to be afraid of difficulties, break through numerous obstacles, and finally realize one's ideals.
With this thought, Xia Duo even felt that he could make the storm more violent.
Of course, thoughts are thoughts, and will and determination are will and determination. In reality, he still prefers one thing more than one thing less. After all, what he lacks most now is time for stable development.
…
Not long after, Xia Duo heard chaotic noises coming from outside. When he listened carefully, it seemed that everyone was here and coordinating the rehearsal process.
Did time pass so fast? But when I looked at the time, several hours had passed. I didn't even feel it, but it suddenly jumped to the present.
And he hasn’t gained much from observing the demiplane!
But the group rehearsal was about to begin, and Xia Duo didn't want to delay, lest he be called out and lose face in front of hundreds of people.
"Niya, get ready to go out!"
"okay!"
Niya quickly began to sort and put away the volumes and information scattered on the table, while Shaduo put away small objects such as teapots, teacups, and chairs. When Niya had put away the information, he also put away the table.
stand up.
When we got outside, it was really noisy. If Xia Duo hadn't cast a soundproofing spell before, he would have been noised out.
"Master Xia Duo, this way!"
Sha Duo discerned a familiar, low-pitched voice from the noisy background. He followed the sound and looked over, where Anglin, who was surrounded by a group of people, was waving to him.
Xia Duo immediately understood that according to the process, there was a reward ceremony first, and they arcanists were at the front. Of course, except for Xia Duo, everyone else could only be named.
This is also the reason why Xia Duo feels that it is too high-profile. Whether it is an award ceremony or a commendation ceremony, he is included, and he is the protagonist, as if this New Year celebration is entirely a debut ceremony held for him.
Too high-profile.
However, when Anglin called him, he had to respond. Not only did he have to respond, but he also had to go over and join them.
After all, when we rehearse the awarding ceremony later, he will appear in the same group as the other six arcanists including Niya, but he will be highlighted, while the others will not.
After reuniting, Xia Duo couldn't help but ask: "Master Anglin, how long have you been here?"
"It's been a while, so it's good that you came first, and you can have a place to rest." Anglin said with a smile.
Shado didn't take his words seriously. This demiplane is as big as the Arcane Square outside. Even if the temporary buildings on the edge are full, it is impossible for a student of the Grand Arcanist to stand and wait.
After the greetings, a majestic female voice appeared in the demiplane. This voice was very familiar to Xia Duo. He had just heard it not long ago. It was the Archmage Greta——
"The collective rehearsal has begun. Those who are not in progress should retreat to the periphery and be good spectators. Don't make any noise!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the square in Offa in the demiplane suddenly became quiet. No one spoke anymore, and there was only the rustle of the crowd adjusting their positions according to the previously rehearsed process.
The entire square was coordinated as if it were a robot, and Xia Duo did not dare to make any mistakes while mixing in the crowd. Even if it was just a rehearsal, there was a faint sense of solemnity in his heart.
After hundreds of people took their places in the square, a melodious and melodious sound of musical instruments sounded, as if it was in the ears or in the distance.
Xia Duo listened carefully and couldn't help but feel a little immersed in it. There was no such thing in the previous solo preview, but the receptionist at the time also said that there would be music.
Along with the music, a deep male voice began to slowly tell the origin, process, and final victory of the war in the green field.
Of course, during this process, the music also became more exciting, eventually reaching a climax——
"The awarding ceremony begins!"
After that, the process was just like the previous solo rehearsal, except this time there were more people, and even the great arcanists, as well as the elf and dwarf envoys appeared in the form of magical images.
It seemed to be more formal than the previous solo preview, and therefore, not too much was omitted in terms of duration.
It took almost half an hour to complete the entire process of the award ceremony, and this was just the beginning. The commendation ceremony was the highlight.
Compared with the one-hour walk before, this group rehearsal now takes much longer.
But no matter how long it takes, it will eventually have an end. When Master Greta announced the end, Sha Duo breathed a sigh of relief.
Others were just participating, but he was actually being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes and enduring a variety of emotions, which made him very uncomfortable.
This is just a preview. If it were a formal ceremony and there would be a crowd of spectators, the number of people would be even greater.
This couldn't help but remind him of the time when he got married to Niya, which was the Midsummer Festival celebration the year before last. He was also watched by countless people at that time, and this was not like the later Midsummer Festival celebration. He was already at the top and had a complete mentality.
no the same.
When I got married, and now, I was in a completely weak state, being watched, and not having much initiative. It seemed like a good time, but in fact I felt panicked.
He forced a friendly face and nodded to the high-level mages who approached to say hello. In fact, Xia Duo was complaining crazily in his heart, how could these people have so much social enthusiasm!
Fortunately, after the collective rehearsal, non-pioneering people could leave. Most of these high-level mages were not pioneers. After receiving the notice that they could leave, they left quickly.
Leaving with them, there were also a large number of seven-tower mid-level mages who had participated in the Green Plane War. After these people left, the entire demiplane Arcane Square suddenly became empty.
After sending Niya away from the demiplane, Xia Duocai finally calmed down. He randomly found a temporary building to continue studying this demiplane while waiting for further notification from above.
Just look at what the pioneers are doing here, Xia Duo is very curious!
