Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1981

It was a group of spellcasters who obviously carried many Yeerlan imprints, including moon elves and gold elves, and in the temporary stronghold by the edge of the forest, there were soldiers wearing Sluvand armor guarding or supervising .

"Master Naris, this—"

"Observer Xiaduo, this group of elf scholars came here shortly after they appeared in Fortress Adolfel. At that time, they were under the banner of folk academic research, so they were not expelled."

Arriving here, Naris didn't show much emotion on his face. He paused and continued: "Not long ago, Shruvande sent an invitation to the countries of the Northern Alliance to jointly develop Fortress Adofil.
"So even though the two countries are in a state of war at the moment, we still haven't expelled them, but let them continue their investigation and research here."

"That's it!"

What Naris said was too high-sounding, and Xia Duo instinctively felt that there was a problem, but he couldn't tell what the problem was. This feeling was very uncomfortable.

Just as he was thinking about it, a wave of magic net fluctuations suddenly erupted in the forest not far away. Xia Duo turned his head and saw two moon elf warriors running out of it supporting each other.

At the same time, at the temporary base, a moon elf with the appearance of a scholar rushed out immediately. Although Xia Duo was some distance away, he could still clearly hear the other party asking anxiously——

"Did you find the shock node?"

Those two-month-old elf warriors cautiously glanced in Xia Duo's direction, and shook their heads imperceptibly. Then the scholar turned his head belatedly, glared at Xia Duo with fear, and then took the The two warriors returned to the camp where the Yellan Elves were.

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo smiled self-deprecatingly, and then asked Naris: "They are trying all kinds of things here, do you really not care at all?"

"It's definitely just polite words to say that you don't care, but it's true not to intervene. If observer Xia Duo is interested, he can also try it. No matter what kind of gains, Sluwende promises that he will never covet it. "

After finishing speaking, it seemed that Xia Duo might really have the intention of exploring. Naris also added, "Of course, there are certain rules for us to invite countries to jointly develop. Wende left a copy, and agreeing to the joint development rules is tantamount to agreeing that the ownership of Sai itself belongs to Sluwende."

"I see!"

For Sluwende's choice, Xia Duo is inconvenient to criticize and change places. Even if he encounters this situation, he can't find a better solution. This is the sorrow of the weak. The leeway is simply too small.

But this still doesn't explain why Sluvande still kept Yeerlan scholars here during the war, not to mention directly detaining them, at least they should be deported!

With so many unstable factors gathered here, you are not afraid of a ruthless blow at a critical moment in the battle, or is there any means by Sluvand to ensure that these Yeerlan scholars will never make trouble.

On the side of the temporary stronghold, the Yeerlan camp has set up a magic barrier, and Xia Duo can only roughly see that there are elves active in the camp, and there are quite a few spellcasters.

Among them, the scholar who just returned to the camp to pick up the two suspected surveyors should be a senior mage, so Xia Duo has every reason to deduce that there should be at least one senior mage in the Yeerlan camp.

Otherwise, it would be outrageous for the camp boss to personally greet the two grassroots surveyors.

And judging from the fact that there are golden elves in the camp, unless the moon elf scholar is a high-level mage, there must be another person in charge above him.

Although Yeerlan is a multi-ethnic (racial) country, the golden elves do not occupy an absolute dominant position in the country, but judging from the long-term historical development trend, there have been more commanders and scholars in the golden elves.

Regardless of whether this is a racial advantage or a class advantage in the past, in short, the golden elves are superior to other elves, and it has almost become a curse engraved on the blood of the elves.

If there are gold elf members in the team, there must be a gold elf leader who is responsible for commanding them. This is almost a self-evident unspoken rule in Ye Erlan.

In other words, in the Yeerlan camp in the temporary stronghold, there is a high probability that there will be a high-level golden elf mage.

It is actually very simple to confirm this problem. Even though Sluvand claims that he does not care about the harvest of explorers from other countries, he should at least find out the identity of the explorers!

Even if there really is a hidden hand who has made the final decision, planning and maneuvering should be the job of the relevant personnel. On the other hand, if they don't even care about the identity of the explorer, it means that this place must be a trap set by Sluvand.

Moreover, all kinds of countermeasures are already in place, the kind of trap that is waiting to be triggered at any time!

Thinking of this, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little nervous. No one standing on a bomb with a remote control in someone else's hand can keep calm as if standing in a safe place.

Although so far this is just his guess, but before coming to Shruvand, he has already preliminarily judged that the ancient fortress will become an important node that will affect the direction of the war.

In any case, it is impossible for Sluwende to give up this place easily, and this place is also Yeerlan's must-have place. As long as there are no major accidents, the two sides are likely to break out a decisive battle here.

But this still can't explain why Sluwende wants to keep these Yeerlan scholars, or that keeping Yeerlan scholars and this place are completely contradictory.

There is a high probability that there are high-level mages among Yeerlan scholars, so what ability does Sluvande have to set up traps that make the opponent have no price difference?

If the bottom line is missed, I'm afraid that Yeerlan's large army will arrive sooner and occupy this place. Then Sluwende's so-called "playing by the rules" will be a complete joke.

Xia Duo felt that he must have overlooked a certain key information, a key information that even Ye Erlan ignored or did not discover.

"what is it?"

Suddenly, Xia Duo had an idea, but whether this idea can be realized depends on whether Sluvand will give him a chance——

"Master Naris, can I go over and talk to the Yeerlan explorer?"

"Of course, Sluvand will not restrict the communication between explorers, and even encourages more exchanges between explorers from all over the world. As long as Yeerlan does not object, Xiaduo observers can go to communicate now."

Naris generously expressed his agreement and even his support, but Xia Duo was even more weird in his heart. Once the seeds of doubt were planted, he would actively look for various opportunities to take root and germinate.

He is looking at things with suspicion now, and feels abnormal everywhere.
