Arcane Lord

After expressing his attitude, Skum couldn't help but ask again: "I heard that the master and Kaos are old acquaintances. So what does the master think about him being like this?"

"We haven't contacted each other for many years. As for his thoughts, I think I may not understand this old friend anymore."

Having said this, Byron paused, shook his head, sighed slightly, and then said:

"But don't put too much pressure on you. You can be recognized by Shia and all the lords of the Giles family, which is enough to prove your ability. Now go ahead. Only the final alienation transformation is left, and you can try to contact the tenth A layer of magic net.”

"Yes, Master!"

Scoum nodded respectfully, and then listened carefully.

…

At the same time, in the headquarters of the Austrian Law Federation, a top-level magic laboratory, a nearly earth-shattering experimental accident once again occurred.

If the experimenter was an ordinary mage, he might have been killed by the sudden violent energy turbulence and random spells before the spell-suppressing field in the laboratory took effect.

But at this moment, two powerful great arcanists are conducting the laboratory here——

Iolum and Broad.

Before the magic calming field in the laboratory took effect, the two great arcanists smoothed the rioting magic network strings on their own. Of course, this was also due to experience.

When everything calmed down and he looked at the ruin-like scene in the laboratory, Iolum frowned deeply. The loss of the failed experiment was nothing to the Grand Arcanist.

The key is that there is no breakthrough in the progress of the experiment, which makes him feel disappointed. "Is it really impossible for the arcane fire to exist independently?"

After countless failures, even though he was determined, he couldn't help but have a trace of self-doubt. He stood in the ruins and didn't speak for a long time.

"Teacher? What are you thinking about? Have you discovered anything new?"

Brod's words awakened Iolum from his self-doubt. Looking at his proud disciple who was still in high spirits, Iolum couldn't help but sigh in his heart, maybe he was really old.

However, this idea was nipped in the bud by him as soon as it appeared. The longevity technique has already made considerable progress, and he will definitely be able to fully realize it in the foreseeable future.

It is impossible to grow old. Even if the body declines, the mentality cannot grow old!

but--

The research on independent arcane fire is still at the same place, and even he cannot guarantee that it will be successful in the future.

"I'm not thinking about anything. Get ready to continue the next experiment! The next experiment will be replaced by mithril with higher purity."

"But teacher, this time it is already the purest mithril, and since the purity of mithril has reached its current level, there is no need to improve it any more. Even if the arcane energy flows, it will undergo elemental transmutation, resulting in a decrease in purity. , this should be considered the purest mithril in theory.”

"not enough!"

Iolum expressed his opposition decisively, "The theoretical limit you mentioned is only the limit of what we can achieve at present, but mithril cannot only be obtained through refining. If pure mithril without any impurities can be created, perhaps There will be different results.”

"Teacher, how can there be pure mithril in this world that does not contain any impurities! If there is such a mithril, it will be difficult to preserve. Even one of our inadvertent breaths may cause it to deteriorate."

As a Grand Arcanist, Brod has also conducted many arcane fire-related experiments with his teacher, so he naturally knows the future direction and limitations of the experiments.

Then, he pointed out the problem of the teacher's laboratory design: "Even if it is carried out in a vacuum environment, it is difficult to avoid the problem of carrier deterioration. Teacher, you should be very clear that no matter how the vacuum is achieved, it will It is impossible to completely isolate all elements and energy.”

Finally, Brod said the words he least wanted to say, "Teacher, I think your idea was wrong from the beginning."

"How can it be!"

Faced with the students' doubts, Iolum was deeply shocked. He said: "If we cannot create additional independent arcane fires, then we arcanists will always be limited by our individual size and it will be difficult to exert the power of arcanists. Real advantage, how can you say it's wrong!"

"Teacher, I'm not saying that the idea of ​​creating an independent arcane fire is wrong, but if the implementation process is too complicated and the conditions are too harsh, it won't make much sense."

In this case, Brod had never said it before. Even though he provided the teacher with countless experimental supplies and personally participated in it, he did not complain at all. After all, it was just some money and time.

Compared to the teacher's teachings to him, his efforts were nothing.

But it is different now. The teacher is about to succeed Master Congenio as the president of the Austrian Law Federation. If the teacher is allowed to go further and further down the wrong path, perhaps the entire Austrian Law Federation will be affected.

The teacher will also be criticized by others for this, which is something Broad does not want to see.

"Is that what you think?" Iolum murmured. He did not expect that his student would actually oppose him on this issue.

While he was a little disappointed, he also felt very relieved. The image of the shy big boy with freckles at the corners of his eyes reappeared in his mind, overlapping with the mature and steady figure of Brod in front of him.

"You have grown up! Maybe I should listen to you this time and change my thinking!"

"teacher--"

"Okay, I understand. Stop the experiment for now. No need to prepare. Let me think about it first. If you have any suggestions, please tell me at any time!"

After saying that, Iolum rubbed Brod's head as he did in the past, and then teleported away, leaving Brod alone with a look of embarrassment to clean up the messy laboratory.

This is in the Austrian Law Federation, not the teacher's own territory. Even if the experiment fails, it still contains many secrets and is not suitable for others to interfere.

…

Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye.

Daxia collar.

At noon that day, Xia Duo and Niya had lunch in the lord's villa. Chef Cook's cooking skills were outstanding. Not only did Niya like to eat the food he was cooking, but even Xia Duo himself couldn't fault it.

I just often lament the lack of rice, but this is a problem that is difficult to solve even with magic.

After lunch, Niya called the Pegasus Pamela to take her to fly over the forest and play, while Shado checked the recent paperwork of the territory in the study.

Soon, a message delivered by the tower spirit made Sha Duo put down what he was doing and quickly called Niya.

"The Austrian Federation sent a message saying that the time for the welcome night dinner has been set. It will be tonight. You can attend it with me then!"
