Arcane Lord

Just when Sha Duo was about to contact Taling to ask about Niya's condition, there was a soft sound of footsteps outside the bedroom door.

Hearing this familiar voice, Sha Duo immediately gave up his plan to contact Talling because it was no longer needed. When he opened the door, he saw Niya looking at him with a frightened expression.

"Ah! Haven't you rested yet? You scared me!" Niya said angrily.

Shouldn't I be the one asking you this?

Xia Duo looked at Niya's face carefully, but the other party did not shy away. She just met his gaze, blushed slightly, and then whispered: "What do you think I am doing? It's so late and I'm not resting!"

Sha Duo saw that Niya didn't seem to know that his soul had left his body in the bedroom and went to the outer plane. Perhaps Niya thought that his attempt to contact the princess was through a certain spell or ritual.

So he didn't mention this matter, but took Niya to sit down in the back room and asked softly: "It's almost early in the morning, I have already woken up, but you, why are you so late?"

At first, when Sha Duo pulled her to the bedside and sat down, Niya thought that something embarrassing would happen to her, but she didn't expect that Sha Duo only asked these questions.

She didn't know whether she was disappointed or relieved. She glanced at Xia Duo and answered:

"I was reading Giles Tower's research information on the background fluctuations of the Magic Network before. Compared with the [Magic Network Background Communication] spell, I thought of a communication method that is more convenient and more widely used than now, and I wanted to experiment with it. , I accidentally got busy now.”

"A communication method that is more convenient and more widely used than now?" Upon hearing this, Xia Duo couldn't help but become interested and asked hurriedly: "What method is that?"

"Didn't you say that there is a network that can be used for communication in your hometown? I just thought that if I could integrate specific background fluctuations of the magic network to form a network covering the entire Netheril, and run it on this giant network Communication spells not only have wider coverage, but the communication tools can also be simplified a lot.”

When talking about her research field, Niya suddenly started talking endlessly, and her eyes shone like sunshine.

Such a look amazed Xia Duo. Some people in my hometown often say that serious men are the most handsome. Aren't serious women beautiful?

"Blame me!"

Sha Duo couldn't help but sigh. From Niya's description, it was not difficult for him to find that the new communication method Niya mentioned should be an application similar to the communication array in [Projection Plane Arcane Empire].

Networking also lowers the threshold for users, but Niya's idea went further. Instead of establishing a physical communication network foundation, she chose to build everything in the magic network.

It already smells vaguely like a mystery lock.

Sha Duo looked at Nia in surprise. He knew that Nia had extraordinary talent in the field of magic, otherwise she would not have become an arcanist at a young age of more than 20 years.

But just by saying "communication network", he came up with an idea similar to the communication mystery lock, and also made a certain feasibility demonstration, which was somewhat incredible to him.

For a moment, Xia Duo didn't know what to say. The thought of "blame me" appeared in his mind again. In fact, he should have told Niya that he already had a relatively complete communication array solution.

If he had told Nia the communication array plan in advance, maybe Nia wouldn't have to worry so much about researching something she didn't even like.

But now, communication instruments have become one of the most important sources of income for the Tower of Time.

Niya hopes that the Tower of Time can still maintain its leading position in the field of communications in the future, and then her research direction will change from the original background fluctuation research of the magic network, which is closer to the origin, to get closer and closer to the field of communications.

Of course, on the other hand, Xia Duo also knows that if he tells Niya the communication array plan in advance, Niya may still move closer to the communication field, but after knowing the communication array, she may not think of the communication mystery lock. .

Even Xia Duo himself had no plans to study it further after he obtained the communication array solution in the projection plane. After all, this application was already quite mature.

At the same time, the communication array requires physical communication towers, which is in line with his consistent understanding of communication networks - the network requires physical hardware facilities.

This is actually a kind of intellectual disability.

Although the communication mystery lock may not be more useful than the communication array, the idea of ​​integrating the background fluctuations of the magic network to form a network itself has very far-reaching significance.

From this point of view, Xia Duo was a little glad that he didn't tell her in advance before. However, Niya had already shown extraordinary research ability at this time. After comprehensive consideration, it might be more beneficial to tell some situations in advance.

Thinking of this, Sha Duo couldn't help but feel excited. He knew that Niya was not only his close partner in life, but also his most reliable collaborator in the process of exploring magic.

It was already close to early morning. Although Xia Duo was excited, he did not drag Nia to exchange magic. He himself was not sleepy, but Nia needed to rest.

After putting her to sleep, Xia Duocai came to the magic laboratory alone, and already had further thoughts about what Niya said just now.

Especially after experiencing [The Birth of Projection Plane Cormanso], the Mystery Lock is no secret to him.

If what Niya envisioned was just a prototype of the mystery lock, then Shado could actually implement this idea into a specific mystery lock.

Maybe there will be a day when the communication mystery lock will be realized!

…

And on the other side, Severton, is Giles Towers.

Byron's return undoubtedly heralds the final result of the Seven Towers' resolution on the succession issue of Giles Tower, but whether such a result can be accepted by Chaos is still a question.

Strictly speaking, before becoming the Grand Arcanist, Skoum's succession also did not conform to the conventions of the Seven Towers.

Not to mention, Byron also temporarily took over in the past when Giles Towers' successor did not meet the conditions, although the situation at that time was more dangerous than today.

But in the eyes of Chaos, Byron may have set a precedent, and he was just following suit.

Therefore, Byron, who had returned to Giles Tower, met with the Grand Arcanist of the Seven Towers and the senior arcanists of Giles Tower, and arranged for Skoum to be by his side overnight to provide guidance at any time.

"The situation is very clear now, but if you fail to become the Grand Arcanist in ten days and Chaos returns from the green field plane, there may be changes, so-"

"Master, I understand, I will never let you down or let down Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Skum's original appearance was that of a young man, but after the princess ascended to godhood, he gradually transformed into the 30-year-old he is now.

On the one hand, Seven Towers needs mature leaders, on the other hand, it can be regarded as cutting off a certain aspect of thoughts.
