Lord of Arcane

Chapter 809 Infiltrating the Gold Elf Soldiers

Sluvand, Westlands.

In the middle of the night, the quiet and peaceful border city of Domtos suddenly welcomed an uninvited guest. After several days of careful exploration, Xia Duo finally chose this place as a training venue.

Based on the information Nya brought back from the princess, the so-called joint action is likely to expel or kill the Cormanthor elves who invaded a certain subplane.

Of course, the other party may also treat them in this way, so the focus of joint operations is likely to be on search and prevention of search.

As for the battle, in the battle between spellcasters, first-hand advantage is extremely important, and it is easy to form a situation where the more fights the less. Xia Duo is not very worried about this.

And considering that Cormanthor is dealing with the drow war, and Netheril has enough power to fight back, this joint operation should only be a low-intensity conflict.

This conflict may determine the ownership of a sub-plane, but it is unlikely to escalate the conflict and turn it into a higher-level war.

No one wants to see such consequences, no matter the elves who are known for their longevity, or Netheril, who urgently need time to develop.

Both sides should therefore have some control over the forces involved in the conflict.

Of course, if you absolutely believe that the other party will use equal force to participate, then your side is not far from death.

It’s just that Xia Duo knows too little about high-level powers. What he can practice on the projection plane does not even include combat, because he has not received the training of Nether mages in joint spellcasting during battle, and there is no companion here to follow. He practices.

Anyway, after leaving the projection plane, he and Niya will go to Sevington to receive special training before joint operations. No matter what combat skills they have, they will know when the time comes.

And here, it is enough for him to compete with relatively real elves in detection and anti-reconnaissance, tracking and anti-tracking.

In fact, although most of the experience obtained by projection becoming drow is experience in the Underdark environment, a considerable part is still applicable on the surface.

Xia Duo set himself a goal, that is to clear the elf mages in Domtos City as much as possible, while avoiding all searches.

In the past two days, he had already identified a target, and he sneaked into it late at night to hunt and kill the other party - the well-known secret script master and elite mage Gunet in Domtos City.

And complete a challenge.

……

"This elf is really not as good as before!"

After entering the city without hindrance, Xia Duo couldn't help sighing.

In the era of the projected plane [Mayerita Sukanvisa City], almost all the border towns of the elves were covered with mystic locks, and at worst there would be various enchantment warnings.

It was almost unimaginable in that era to imagine him climbing over the wall and entering the city with only his physical agility.

A border city didn't even have night guards, and its armaments were so lax, it was no wonder that it was defeated by the newly-rising Yeerlan hundreds of years later and became its vassal state.

For the elves, a few hundred years is a generation, which shows that the decline of Sluwende's power may have penetrated into the internal organs long ago, and he is powerless to recover.

But in the end, Xia Duo still has to verify it himself to know. If it is really not worth fighting, then maybe he will go to the newly established Ye Erlan.

Passing through the thorn tree wall, the road was unimpeded, and Xia Duo saw the first wave of patrolling soldiers coming out of the inner city until he approached the inner city.

There are four elves in total, and all of them are gold elves, wearing metal armor, wearing a long sword on their waist, and a long bow on their shoulders.

Seeing these elves, Xia Duo finally felt that his trip was not in vain. All of them were covered with magic equipment, especially those arrow branches with only arrow feathers exposed, which gave people an inexplicable sense of crisis.

Xia Duo thought that there was a magic arrow found in the ruins of the mythos in his portable space, even if it was placed on this projection plane, it could be regarded as an ancient creation.

The magic arrows of these golden elf soldiers should not be stronger than his, but this is a long-range attack method after all.

Who knows what might come out of it!
Watching the four golden elf soldiers with cold faces and uniform movements going away from a distance, Xia Duo waited until he could no longer see their figures or hear their footsteps, then he touched again. inner city.

After arriving here, it finally looks like a magical race. In addition to the persistent guard barrier, there are also probing magic sweeping from time to time, which is far more rigorous than the outer city.

It seems that this golden elf is not only extremely discriminating against other elves, but even among the golden elves, they are divided into different ranks.

……

Periodic detection magic is not enough, as long as it is carefully avoided, it is very troublesome to continuously guard the enchantment.

If it was Xia Duo himself, there was nothing he could do in a short time, mainly because he didn't have much research on elf magic, even if he had read a lot of books in the Crowley family in the Underdark.

Even if the coefficients of drow magic and elf magic have the same origin, if you want to consume and understand it in a short time, you still disagree.

The biggest trouble here is that you can't disturb the other party, otherwise the research will be meaningless. If you can ignore the other party's reaction and keep trying, even without the data on drow magic, Xia Duo is confident that in a relatively short period of time Find a way to break through.

Only by being alarmed can we study and find a breakthrough method, and the purpose of finding a breakthrough method is precisely to avoid alarming, which is a contradiction.

But fortunately, Xia Duo is not only himself, but also "Brandon", who led the task of drow to the surface, how could he not consider this situation!

Among the equipment Marucis sent him were magic items that were specially used to hide or even sneak into the enchantment of elves, and other drow also had them, but the effect might not be as good as what Marucis prepared for him.

After activating the concealment effect of the concealment cloak, Xia Duo's figure turned into a shadow and blended into the night, spreading from the hiding place outside the inner entrance to the inner city without touching any magic barrier.

Of course, the actual situation is that the cloak temporarily transforms Xiaduo into a suspected shadow creature, and he is in the main plane and the shadow plane at the same time, and he can choose which plane to appear in.

A bit similar to the feeling when accessing items in the portable space.

Just swaggering past the entrance of the inner city, no elves found him, but the concealment effect of the concealment cloak is not permanent, it can only last for about 10 minutes.

But this was enough to last until Xia Duo finished hunting.

……

Gunet's residence is easy to find, it is a library in the inner city, which is also an important reason why Xia Duo put his first target on him——

He wants to practice his hands, and he also needs to search for knowledge.
