Arcane Lord

After thinking about it, Xia Duo asked Mott, "Then where is your research progress now?"

"My lord, I have thought of an idea to turn the negative energy into a curse, attach it to a goblin, and then let it keep in contact with other goblins and infect them, and finally put all the goblins in a half-living and half-dead state. There is no need to increase wisdom for them. The goblins themselves have certain wisdom and can understand human commands."

Speaking of the end, Mott almost released light in his eyes, but his state made Xia Duo's heart tremble. This is the rhythm of undead natural disasters!

Does he have the potential to become the Lich King?

Xia Duo shook his head and expelled this terrible scene from his mind. Then, with a grimace, he said to Mott, "I am very satisfied with your research, but now there is enough labor in the territory. I don't need an undead goblin for now. Give you a new mission."

"what?!"

Mott was a little bit lost. He didn't expect his research to be useless at all, but when he thought of the new task of the lord, he couldn't help but look forward to it, "My lord, what new task is it?"

"Compose a set of funeral rituals unique to Daxia Ling!" Xia Duo said casually.

This wasn't something he thought of temporarily, but a plan long ago, and it was Mott's own job. The Lord of Death didn't care about etiquette, and the doctrine was more inclined to maintain the peace of the dead.

Chardonnay, who has experience in [Projection Plane Netheril Kiran Town], even suspects that the doctrine of death on the main plane has been specially revised.

After all, on that projection plane, the death priest is the real upper class, and the faith of the Lord of Radiance is even in a suppressed position.

The projection plane is a possible projection of the main plane. Xia Duo has reason to believe that the main plane has also undergone such a wave of suppression, seizure of power, and counter-suppression, and ultimately the Lord of Death does not even exist a serious temple.

The priest of the Lord of Death can only live in the temple of the Lord of Radiance. Of course, why the mage class became the real ruler in the end, Xia Duo didn't know.

He speculated that it might have something to do with the [Color Resistance Scroll], or it might be that the priesthood of the Lord of Radiance took the initiative to retreat. It has been a matter of hundreds of years. Who can really understand the secret behind this!

Anyway, on the main plane, the power of the mage lord has been confirmed in almost every aspect, and it is not a big deal to modify a funeral ritual.

Xia Duo did not directly force Mott to ban the study of undead creatures, but was going to play down the matter, and constantly assigning him new tasks was such a process.

...

After leaving the cemetery, Chateau immediately sent a message to Gibb and issued a new order to stop him from taking Mott out to hunt goblins. There is no raw material, even if Mott wants to study privately, it is impossible.

As for going further, Chateau was planning to recruit two more death priests from Savile, even if it was just two apprentices, the secrets of the people would not be hidden.

Back at the Lord’s Villa, the guard Norman told him that the former Druid Atwood was already waiting for him in the reception room, but at this time Niya "comed for information", and Xia Duo was anxious about the scarlet flashing star. , Did not go to the reception room immediately.

Since the communicator can only transmit short text messages, Niya is a voice message sent through Taring, and her tone seems a little flustered:

"I can’t get in touch with the teacher now. What natural disaster rumors are spreading outside. I asked several arcanists in Giles’ Tower. They don’t know the status of the flashing star. I’m now looking for information in the library. See if there is a similar situation in history."

After listening to Niya's reply, Xia Duo felt a little heavy. He hoped that Niya could reply directly that the scarlet flashing star was just a normal phenomenon, even if it was her teacher who was carrying out some strange experiment!

There is no accurate information, and there are rumors of natural disasters, which is really anxious!

The only good news is that the Giles Tower Library has accumulated for hundreds of years, and maybe we can really find records of similar situations.

If it's just an ordinary natural phenomenon, it doesn't matter. The most feared is that it is really a precursor of some kind of natural disaster.

"Ugh--"

Xia Duo let out a long sigh, adjusted his feelings, and stepped into the reception room. No matter what the future is, what he should do now is to do it step by step.

...

"Lord Lord!"

Seeing Xia Duo coming in, Atwood got up and saluted somewhat cautiously. Xia Duo still valued the former druid, and he was still useful to him in the future, so he bowed back.

After the two sat down separately, Xia Duo took out a prepared piece of parchment from the portable space, reached out and sent it forward, and naturally floated to Atwood, "Look at the content first!"

Atwood held the paper floating in front of him in both hands, and began to read. As he read the lines of text, Atwood's face changed constantly.

From the calm at the beginning, to the surprise, shock, and horror later, finally there was appreciation, approval, and so on.

Xia Duo had a completely calm expression, because he knew exactly what was written on the paper. In his opinion, these contents were just common sense, and there was nothing to be surprised about.

But if it is placed in Netheril, it is not that simple. And from Atwood's complex expression changes, Chateau confirmed this idea again.

There is not much content on the paper. Xia Duo guessed that Atwood saw the same, so he asked: "Is there anything you want to say after reading it?"

"grown ups--"

Atwood's mouth opened and closed, closed and opened, as if he didn't know where to start.

When Xia Duo saw this, he immediately set the scope, "Let’s talk about the definition of nature first. What do you think of the view that ‘people are part of nature’?"

With the scope, Atwood naturally no longer entangled, and immediately said, "This point of view is very new, but its intention is higher than'nature is equivalent to forest'. Since elves can belong to nature, then of course humans can also belong to nature. "

"..."

The original text of Chateau is indeed human, but what he wants to express is any intelligent creature~www.ltnovel.com~ including goblins, but Atwood's interpretation is not wrong, at least it shows that he has the exclusive right to define nature for elves. Some dissatisfaction.

So he asked: "Then what do you think of ‘human beings live in harmony with nature’?"

Atwood replied, "To live in harmony does not mean to maintain the forest unconditionally. Humans themselves are part of nature. Survival is the first priority. On the premise of meeting the conditions for survival, harmony is achieved without malicious demand."

Xia Duo nodded. It seems that Atwood can already accept the new definition of nature, but this is not surprising. If he can accept the original definition, then he won’t be deceived by the debate about whether he can clear the forest and open up farmland. The Ruined Order was exiled.

Nowadays, the druids of Netheril can basically become fundamentalists. They believe that nature is the forest, and the elves are the incarnation of nature. They can agree that there are ghosts in clearing the forest.

In fact, even within the elves, the druids are not the mainstream, and the elves have not rarely done forest destruction.

When Chateau became an elven on the projection plane, it can be said that he knew a lot, especially in [Projection Plane·Meirita Sukanvisa City], where there are almost no druid legends, although the elves It is true that forests are loved more than humans, but once a war is fought, what should be destroyed will still be destroyed.

As long as it is necessary, it does not matter even if it is to destroy an entire forest.

Xia Duo guessed that the elves paid so much attention to the forest, perhaps because the establishment of the mystery was related to the forest. Of course, Xia Duo was not sure of this, but just a suspicion.

Otherwise, how can there be any race that pays special attention to a certain environment!

To be honest, the elves live in the air and should pay more attention to air quality, just as the aquatic races pay more attention to water quality.
