Arcane Lord

Just when Xia Duo and others were entering the formal training session in the jungle south of the camp, a group of black-robed mages suddenly walked out of the camp portal.

After arriving at the camp, a mage also dressed in black robes left the mage tower construction site. After a brief negotiation, this new team of black-robed mage immediately came to the east of the row of stone buildings.

After everyone took their positions, they took out their spell books and started casting spells.

A complicated construction spell in the field of creation earth element was gradually woven into shape under the joint spell casting of a group of black-robed mages.

As the spell was completed, a row of brand new stone buildings rose from the ground, connecting with the previous buildings, which looked very strange.

However, after successive spells were cast and the buildings changed from one row to multiple rows, order emerged spontaneously. However, after completing multiple rows of simple buildings, the mages did not leave, but took out the dimensional bags they carried with them.

Pour out a large amount of magic circle materials, and start from the building where the first spell is cast, and arrange simple protection and early warning magic.

Magic that is maintained solely by the caster's spells does not last long, nor is it easy to be stable. Only by solidifying it into a magic circle can it be more easily preserved for a long time.

In contrast, except for a small amount of mithril materials that can be reused, other materials such as five-color gems and packaging materials are difficult to reuse.

Even if it is a temporary camp and does not cost a lot of resources to deploy permanent magic circles, these relatively stable and long-lasting temporary magic circles alone are expensive.

…

By the time Xia Duo and others finished the first day of training and returned to the camp, the mid-level mage was completely shocked by the scene in front of him.

As for high-level mages such as Xia Duo, even if they devote themselves wholeheartedly to training, if they can't even notice the strong magic fluctuations coming from the camp not far to the north, then these high-level mages are too cheap. .

However, Xia Duo initially thought that someone in the camp was trying some special spell, but he did not expect that it would be a group of black-robed mages building a house here.

The camp was not far from the jungle where they had trained before, but it was not close either. It was about two to three hundred meters. Sha Duo could only judge that the spells in the camp involved the flow of huge amounts of energy.

As for more, it's hard to tell at this distance.

"You are here first. You can choose a room as a temporary resting place. Take a rest early and continue training tomorrow!"

Furstrum said the last part and left directly.

…

"Choose a room first!"

Xia Duo adapted well. He didn't really care about these unnecessary external circumstances. After seeing that the others looked unhappy, he was the first to break the silence.

With him taking the lead, Niya and Belera followed him to choose a room. Seeing this, the others quickly followed.

When it comes to choosing a room, there is actually not much room for selection. Every room is almost carved out of the same mold.

The room was not big, and there was only one room. The conditions were not even as good as the apprentice dormitories in the Tower of Time. There was only a bare stone bed, a stone chair and a stone table.

There is nothing else.

Sha Duo randomly selected a room that was close to the portal. Niya did not choose and planned to live with Sha Duo. After all, it was just a temporary resting place, and it was nothing to live with two people.

The others shared a room, but they all chose places near Sha Duo's room, as if they really had the intention of forming a group.

However, such a distance, even if there are relatively independent protective spells, and you can also set up your own protective magic, this distance is still too narrow for spellcasters, especially high-level mages.

It almost hits the psychological safety distance of high-level mage.

Such large-scale centralized resettlement is really "careful"!

Xia Duo had no way of guessing what he was thinking above. After settling down, he immediately cast a spell to seal the door and put all the tables and chairs in the room into his personal space.

As for the stone bed, Xia Duo was not prepared enough. The bed he brought could not fit in the room, so he did not rearrange it. Just pay attention next time. Anyway, the space he brought with him was large enough to store any supplies he wanted to bring.

When a familiar set of desks, chairs, paper and pens, and even teacups, teapots, and bookshelves appeared in the room, a surprised smile suddenly appeared on Niya's face:

"You even carry these things with you?"

"Of course, there's more to it than that. It's just that you don't want to be too public during the mission."

For senior mages, dimensional bags are no longer a high expense, and it is not a problem to buy one a month with a little effort.

The only concern is safety!

But for some supplies related to daily life and ostentation, even if the dimensional bag does have hidden dangers, no thief would be so incompetent that he would steal those items.

You must know that those who make dimensional bags are at least high-level mages, and stealing items from dimensional bags is actually stealing from the etheric plane and requires high-level decision-making by the organization.

Although Xia Duo had heard the argument that dimensional bags were not safe, and that dimensional bags were indeed not safe in theory, he had never heard of anyone actually being stolen through a dimensional bag.

Maybe it's because the caster is cautious, but it actually involves a credit cost issue.

Once there is a problem with the dimensional bags produced by a certain company, it is likely to affect subsequent sales. If there is not a large enough profit temptation, even the producers themselves will try their best to avoid dimensional bag safety problems.

As for what means to use to avoid it, Xia Duo believes that it should be more positive when there are competitors.

Unless all dimensional bag manufacturers unite and engage in shady operations, that is almost impossible. Many Mage Towers have the ability to produce dimensional bags. If there is a shady operation, there will always be people who want to take shortcuts through exposure.

Once it breaks out, even the Seven Towers will find it difficult to bear the consequences.

This is the power of order.

Therefore, the dimensional bag is still relatively safe when there is no big enough profit temptation.

Then, it is not surprising that high-level mages use dimensional bags to carry some supplies for life and ostentation.

Xia Duo believed that even Niya would carry some daily necessities with her, but not as rich as him.

And if someone has a dimensional bag linked to the demiplane, then even Xia Duo may not be as rich as him.

After all, his current portable space is only 1,000 cubic meters, which is not as spacious as half a plane!

However, using a dimensional bag linked to a demiplane, accessing items is more cumbersome than a normal dimensional bag, and compared with the portable space, it is even worse.

In comparison, Xia Duo's desire for the demiplane lies more in its research value rather than its use value.

…

The temporary residence was simply decorated, and after dinner, the two simply cleaned up, then lay on the bed fully clothed and started talking at night.
