Arcane Lord

"Xia Duo, you can pick up the Archmage for me, I am here waiting for you!"

"Great!"

Without any hesitation, Xia Duo immediately returned to the Tower of Time from the portal not far away, and behind him was the portal to Savile Town.

You can vaguely see the scene in the temporary barracks on the other side of the portal where the portal is maintained. Of course, there are only vague images and no sound can be heard.

But as long as you have a full understanding of portal spells, you can project the detection through the portal to the other side, thereby observing the situation on the other side.

Xia Duo once learned [Short-range Portal] at an exchange meeting in Sevinton. It only has 5 rings, but it is a simplified version of the original 8 Ring [Portal]. Basically all the elements are available.

He himself knew how to observe the scene on the other side through the portal, but he came from the other side, so he didn't need to cast spells to understand.

...

At this moment, in the teleport room where Xia Duo was located, in addition to the activated portal on the wall behind her, there were five portals that had not yet been activated in the room.

Of course, it is more accurate to say that the base of the portal is located on the other three walls except the door, two on each wall.

Their main function is to maintain the portal to a fixed location for a long time.

Without these pedestals, the portal can also be used, but the duration is extremely limited, and it does not function well as a connection between Savile Town and the Tower of Time.

Generally, when a portal is used, it basically needs to be maintained for a long time. If it is used for a short time, it may be more convenient to directly transmit.

In the center of the room, there is a square and square platform about half a foot above the ground, on which a complicated but very regular line and striped road is poured with precious metals such as mithril and gold.

This is the teleportation circle.

Just now, Niya had passed the temporary pass key here to Grand Mage Olong, so Xia Duo only had to wait here for a while.

...

Soon, the magical aura of the teleportation circle began to tremble. The aura that was originally white and clear as water suddenly became blurred, like a white mist.

Of course, this was only an anomaly in magical vision. In normal vision, the teleportation circle was also shining, but it did not affect what Xia Duo saw on the teleportation platform.

From the response of the teleportation circle to the end of the teleportation, it took almost a blink of an eye, and the magical aura that was like a white mist suddenly shrank.

Immediately afterwards, Archmage Olong, whom Xia Duo had met several times, appeared on the teleportation platform. Along with him was a bald spellcaster wearing a gray robe and a strange mask.

Only by looking at the other person, Xia Duo could see that he was not a human being. If he were human, no one's eyes would shine, and they were very strange red.

Even in the magical world, Xia Duo has never seen anyone whose eyes can shine under normal conditions, so I won't think about other ideas, it must be a talent.

It's just that Xia Duo is not Fahai, he doesn't dare to clamor for bold evildoers here.

And the most important point is that Xia Duo had a chilling feeling the moment he saw the other person's eyes. It was not a fear, but rather a kind of spiritual oppression.

This feeling was intuitive and metaphysical, but it was real, and Xia Duo had to deal with it carefully.

In fact, he had already recognized the identity of the special spellcaster personally accompanied by the princess's follower, the Archmage Oron.

The other party's iconic white long-barreled gloves, weird mask, and the skull emblem on the gray robe are all announcing to the outside world that he represents death.

This is indeed a servant of the Lord of Death, or a priest.

If Xia Duo had guessed correctly, this one might have been transformed into an undead creature, which made him feel indescribable.

He had heard in the past that there were dead priests who would voluntarily transform into undead creatures, but this practice was actually against teachings.

The Lord of Death witnesses and defends death, and believes that only death is the ultimate eternity, but he also respects life very much. He believes that the more wonderful a life lives, the more glorious and greater its death will be.

The Lord of Death is not the reaper of life. Therefore, wanton killing or transforming undead creatures is not allowed, even his priests.

In fact, a long-term and important duty of the death priest is to clean up the negative energies and undead creatures in the world, and let the dead belong to death.

Being able to become an undead creature without losing sight of him and maintaining his identity as a priest is really not easy!

Xia Duo's heart shuddered. Knowing that the Tower of Time is likely to have a big figure, he adjusted his emotions (the undead are very sensitive to emotions), and gave a slight bow to the two (?):

"Master Olong, and the loyal servant of the Lord of Death, welcome the two to the Tower of Time!"

"Lord Chateau, long time no see!"

The priest did not respond. Instead, Archmage Oron showed some enthusiasm and introduced to Chateau: "This is the legend of Morton, the legend of Sevendon. This time I came here to be entrusted by the council to deal with the murlocs. event."

Morton High Priest?

With his extraordinary memory ability, Xia Duo quickly retrieved all the information behind this name in his mind. Others, including his legendary identity, were not important to Xia Duo, and it would not hinder him anyway.

There is only one thing that makes him very concerned--

This Morton high priest mastered the resurrection magic, and there have been many confirmed resurrection cases!

This is simply a walking money printing machine!

Although I don't know the specific cost of the resurrection, as long as the technology is in hand, and when you meet relatives and friends who can't give up the deceased, UU reading www.uukanshu.com is not just asking for a price!

The resurrection technique was a strategically important technique that Xia Duo particularly wanted to obtain, but he also knew that it was almost impossible to obtain the resurrection technique from a dead priest.

Not to mention the difficulty of transforming from divine magic to arcane magic, the resurrection itself violates the doctrine of death, so the death priest cannot easily reveal it.

It's just that an undead creature does some resurrection business, is this all right?

This is not good!

Before knowing that Morton's High Priest was an undead creature, Xia Duo didn't think anything, but when he saw Morton's High Priest in person and recognized that the other party was very likely to be an undead creature, he always felt a bit of disharmony in his heart.

It feels like a crematorium on the earth but part-time rescue work, how could it not violate peace!

However, the scene still couldn't get colder, he said quickly: "Thank the High Priest Morton for his support to the south!"

But Morton still didn't react at all, but the red light in his eyes flashed twice. Xia Duo hadn't dealt with undead creatures. If there was another death priest present to translate, maybe he could still communicate cordially?

Of course, there are no other priests here, but there is an Archmage Oron who can accompany Morton over, and he must be able to communicate. "Lord Chateau, the high priest Morton said that he doesn’t need to thank him. The council gave enough remuneration!"

After a pause, Oron said again: "High Priest Morton asked you to take him to the river!"

"Okay! Come here, you two!"

Xia Duo pointed to the open portal a few steps away, and made an inviting gesture. After the two followed, he took the lead in walking in.
