Arcane Lord

————It will take about an hour~~

After a while, Oripus brought Prince Foss to the reception room where Shado was. Shado stood up to greet him. After both parties took their seats, Prince Foss took the lead in expressing his gratitude to Shado:

"Thank you Lord Shado for taking care of Akaula. If it weren't for domestic government affairs, my father would have wanted to express his gratitude to you personally."

"It's just a store, not to mention taking care of it. Among the multiple bidders, your store has very good qualifications and potential."

After a brief exchange of greetings, the two chatted for a while about Akola's future plans for the handicraft store opened in the Friendship Tower. Xia Duo also paid some attention to it, and the two sides had a very pleasant exchange.

Seeing that the time for the opening ceremony was getting closer and closer, Prince Foss gradually showed an anxious look on his face. Such emotions were naturally not difficult for Chateau to discover, but Foss didn't say anything, and Chateau didn't take the initiative to ask.

It wasn't until Oripus came to inform that the ceremony was still ten minutes away that Fox gritted his teeth and said what he had been thinking about for a long time - "I wonder what Lord Shado thinks of the recent comprehensive testing of the alliance announcement?"

I see!

Chateau asked why Fosse came so quickly! Originally, he still had the idea of ​​​​inquiring inside the comprehensive inspection, but Xia Duo did not take it seriously. Once the comprehensive inspection came out, even an elf would be worried.

Not only are they worried about demon descendants, but they are also worried that they will be misjudged. After all, demon descendants are only a minority, and the majority are normal elves.

Thinking of this, Chateau comforted Foss, "Comprehensive testing is imperative, and the alliance's attitude towards demons is also loosening, so don't worry too much.

"Even if a demon descendant is really detected, as long as it is determined after investigation that he has not been involved in any vicious incident, the Alliance will not impose any requirements. It is more up to each country to handle it on their own. But if nothing else, the Alliance should recommend a lenient treatment."

"That's good."

After hearing Sha Duo's answer, Foss seemed to be relieved, but he was worried about being misunderstood by Sha Duo, so he quickly explained: "The territory of Akora has been closed for a long time, and there shouldn't be any demons infiltrating here. I'm just worried." Influenced by this trend.”

"It is understandable that demons have not yet developed into races other than elves, but Netheril is actually quite nervous."

Of course, there is no case of humans transforming into demons. Compared with the concerns of humans and elves, the gap is still very obvious.

Xia Duo did not mention the difference, but continued: "This comprehensive test can be said to have clarified the identity of the demons that has lasted for thousands of years. In the future, the demons will no longer be enemies, but they must be made public. own identity.”

On the one hand, the identity is disclosed because other races are also disclosed. Whether it is an elf or a dwarf can be very intuitively distinguished from the appearance alone. However, the devil is different. Without deliberately displaying demonic characteristics, it is difficult to distinguish from the appearance.

On the other hand, it is because of the danger of the demon itself. This bloodline is not natural. Although it has been perfected for thousands of years, there are still various disadvantages.

For example, before fully controlling the bloodline, demons are easily affected by the breath of the abyss and their personalities become extreme. In addition, the breath of the abyss itself can also infect other non-demon descendants.

Therefore, marking the identity is also for the sake of more people in the North.

But marking does not necessarily mean disclosure. This is somewhat similar to AIDS on Earth. Demons can be infected with certain high-risk diseases on the spot, and this is indeed the case.

The demon descendants were originally caused by the abyssal aura infection that normal elves received during the Crown War. The biggest drawback of the demon descendants is actually not anything else, but that it is difficult to give birth to normal descendants, and it is difficult to give birth to descendants normally.

From this perspective, demons cannot be regarded as a brand new race at all, but merely cases of individuals of various races being infected with the aura of the abyss.

However, there are huge benefits to suffering from this disease, especially for spell casters, who can avoid most of the disadvantages and only enjoy the benefits, which makes it difficult to completely eliminate this disease.

Shado once led a tribe of demons in the projection plane of the Red Heart Alliance. It was said to be a tribe, but the individuals among them had almost no blood relationship. They only came together because everyone was exiled by Everesca.

Shado can confidently say that he knows more about demons than any elf in the main plane, except for the Illuminati. No one knows how many unknown secrets those prophets have obtained through prophecies.

But as far as ordinary elves are concerned, it is impossible for anyone to understand the demons better than Xia Duo, and even the demons do not understand themselves better than Xia Duo.

Not only this special bloodline itself, but also the mentality of being a demon descendant. Although elves are an immortal race, they are not a race that advocates immortality. They are willing to accept the afterlife, so they can look at death calmly.

Only a handful of elves care about the benefits of demon descendants. The vast majority of demon descendants actually don't care about the benefits brought by this special bloodline at all. If possible, they would rather give up this bloodline.

This mentality is not only due to the discrimination, rejection, and persecution of the elves, but also the shortcomings of the demons themselves.

Inheritance has a very high status in elf culture, ranging from the inheritance of family and country to the inheritance of individual blood lines. Elves attach great importance to inheritance. High mages resist death almost 100% for the sake of family inheritance.

However, the demon descendant cannot inherit the bloodline, which is difficult to be accepted by most elves.

Therefore, regarding the demon descendants, the best solution is to develop a method of stripping the blood of all demon descendants, as in the projection plane of the Red Heart Alliance.

In the Red Heart Alliance, only the army implants demon blood into soldiers for stronger combat effectiveness, but after retirement, the blood needs to be stripped off.

In this case, the demon descendant has become a symbol of glory.

The main plane does not have to do this. It is not a good thing to promote the demon blood. If Sha Duo had participated in the rise of the Red Heart Alliance, he would definitely not agree to allow the demon blood to be retained in the army.

As for the benefits of demon blood, it can be obtained through other methods, and it does not necessarily have to be devoted to it.

It is too dangerous to contact the Abyss now. As far as Xia Duo is concerned, the Kingdom of Glory has been at war with the Abyss for countless years, and the Lord of Glory has never been seen to be so powerful that mortals cannot imagine that it has destroyed the Abyss, which is obviously opposite to His path.

Why would a mortal classical civilization want to use the abyss without any hidden dangers?

The abyss is there. When civilization grows stronger in the future, there will always be opportunities to study it. When it is weak, it should be more cautious.

After this comprehensive inspection, the Northland Alliance will definitely establish a demon-related research institution. At that time, Xia Duo will suggest focusing on stripping off the bloodline, rather than in-depth research on the abyss breath and demon bloodline.

The former Red Heart Alliance has succeeded, and there is a high probability that the main plane can succeed. The worst is that Xia Duo feeds, but the latter has not even gone too deep into the Red Heart Alliance. It is too dangerous to conduct such research on the main plane now.
