Lord of Arcane

Chapter 734 Statue Abnormal Agency Business
Xia Duo still often recalls the old man in Savile Town who used [magic tricks] to tease children. Apart from that old man, there are many people in Savile Town who have the ability to cast spells as adults.

Although only a crude trick, this natural ability to cast spells should have been valued at a young age and worked hard to develop.

It's a pity that these people's spellcasting ability can only be reduced to a toy for teasing children in the end.

Xia Duo doesn't care whether those people's abilities are innate, after all, those people may have stayed in the Tower of Time and bragged about it afterwards, but this at least shows one thing——

Savile town is littered with quite a few spellcasters (probably only capable of a crude trick).

Wouldn't it be nice to train these people and then train them into magic technicians!
Once the industry is running, unless there is a sudden automatic production on that day, a large number of qualified industrial workers will be indispensable!

In the magical world, the minimum standard for a qualified industrial worker in Xia Duo's eyes is to have the ability to cast spells. Without the ability to cast spells, you can't even connect to the magic net, you can't even operate the alchemy circle, so how can you produce magic items!
The current Tower of Time is transforming from a classical workshop to a modern college. The medium and long-term goal is the integration of industry, education and research. But for now, absorbing social forces is also an indispensable and important accumulation in the transformation process of the Tower of Time.

……

After leaving the town hall, Xia Duo passed through the central square in front of the town hall and flew towards the southeast. When he flew to the center of the square, Xia Duo's heart moved and he landed in front of the statue of Saville.

I have seen the statue countless times in the past, but this time it suddenly had some strange charm. Xia Duo walked around the statue a few times, and he found that this strange charm was entwined on the statue, if it was not there.

It can only be discovered inadvertently. If you observe deliberately, it will disappear.

"Is this the power of faith?"

It's no wonder that Xia Duo made this guess. It's really hard for the statue not to remind people of the power of faith, but Xia Duo has never seen the power of faith with his own eyes, so he can't tell whether it is here or not.

"Um--"

Xia Duo suddenly had an idea, but right now he still had business to do, so he pressed this idea to the bottom of his heart, and it would not be too late to verify it after finishing the business.

……

Arriving at the barracks, before Xia Duo landed, he saw a man dressed as a mage walking around a small open space with three soldiers in a training ground.

Upon closer inspection, he turned out to be an acquaintance!

Xia Duo went straight to the training ground, "Siore, why is it you? You are not in the Tower of Time playing with those gadgets, what are you doing here?"

Xiore is the only middle-level mage in the Tower of Time who doesn't have any apprentices. He usually likes to tinker with some weird things, and makes troubles from time to time.

The worst time, he turned himself into a puppy. Fortunately, he was still able to speak normally, so people called Lord Epps and Abeck, otherwise he might have been cooked by the real puppy.

Seeing Xia Duo, Xiore dodged his eyes a little, and said falteringly: "I have accepted the task of serving the day!"

"Really? I don't believe it!"

Xia Duo looked at the soldiers beside him, "Let me ask you, what is Master Xiorei doing here?"

"My lord, Master Xiorei is here to sell his multifunctional potion!"

Really not!But what's the multi-function total?Xia Duo was taken aback for a moment, but then he realized that it was probably another novelty toy made by Xiore.

Only this time he switched to potions.

"How is the effect?" Xia Duo asked again.

"It should be pretty good!" The soldier replied truthfully.

not bad?Xia Duo glanced at Xiore, when will this guy come up with something good?

But since there was no problem, Xia Duo didn't ask any more questions, but just reminded Xiore not to be too busy and miss the time of the refresher class, and then walked towards the barracks not far away.

……

The meeting with Ke Yaen was very short, and after knowing that the mages who took over the task of serving the day were very cooperative, Xia Duo left with confidence.

Xia Duo did not give a direct answer to Ke Yaen's question that a single task for a single person would only last for one day, which would interrupt the progress of the cultivation of spellcasters in the army repeatedly.

Delaying the task time is indeed very simple in terms of operation, just changing the task content.

But not everyone can accept long-term field work, especially during the mission, they have to obey the orders of an ordinary person, and they can do whatever they want.

Now is the critical moment of the Tower of Time's transformation, and it is most necessary to go through it smoothly. It is really inconvenient to increase the task time and jump emotions.

However, considering that different people need different choices, Xia Duo still contacted Taling to add a self-selected duration setting for duty service tasks, allowing them to choose by themselves.

For the time being, only 1, 2, and 3 days are available.

As for whether it will be forced to be extended in the future, it depends on the specific situation.

……

Whether it is to give the task to the mayor of Sion, or to come to the barracks to check the situation of the duty service, it can only be regarded as a small episode. The most important purpose of Xia Duo coming to Savile Town this time is to prepare for the upcoming launch of the Tower of Time. The communication tool is looking for an agent.

Xia Duo prefers the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. On the one hand, this is the Chamber of Commerce introduced by the princess, which brought sincerity when the Tower of Time was in trouble, and on the other hand, it is the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce itself.

It has a good reputation, and the owner behind it is said to be a senior arcanist who has cooperated with many great arcanists from the Seven Towers, making it one of the most outstanding chambers of commerce in Netheril.

It is not even limited to the Seven Towers, and maintains good relations with forces outside the Seven Towers.

Through the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce, Xia Duo can sell the communication artifact of the Tower of Time to the entire Netheril, and even the kingdom of elves and dwarves.

Therefore, the first stop he went to was the office of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce in Savile Town.

……

Savile Town, East End.

Xia Duo knew the address, but he still asked people to find this office of Mingshui Chamber of Commerce. It was too far away!

At the back of a shop, it may have been used as a temporary warehouse before it was transformed into an office.

When Xia Duo arrived, the door was still ajar. If it wasn't for the very special gold coin emblem of the Mingshui Chamber of Commerce hanging at the door, he would have thought he had gone to the wrong place.

"Is anyone there?" Xia Duo called inside.

It was a bit deep and dark inside, but it still couldn't block Xia Duo's sight. He saw someone inside.

Sure enough, a loud voice came from inside, "Let's not talk about new business for now, old customers come in and sit freely!"

Xia Duoxin said it was a bit interesting, and he didn't do any business, but the Tower of Time was considered a regular customer and was not among them. He pushed open the door, stood at the door, and said to the inside, "I'm Xia Duo!"

This time, although the sound was not loud, it carried the power of magic, and it went straight to the innermost part.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Duo heard the sound of tables and chairs colliding, and then a figure rushed out from inside, and stopped in front of him with a sudden brake:
"Xia Duo, Lord Xia Duo?"

The visitor squinted his eyes and looked at Xia Duo against the light, as if he was a little suspicious. Seeing this, Xia Duo shook the [Pioneer Scepter] in his hand, and a smile burst into the visitor's face instantly.
