Arcane Lord

"Bearbug——"

Xia Duo pondered, there were only two teams of soldiers in the territory, and one team was left to guard the surrounding camp. Only ten people could be sent out to clean up the surrounding creatures.

A single bugbear is not difficult to deal with, but the most fearful thing is that it brings together a group of small goblins. In that case, the small goblins will not be defeated so easily.

Coupled with the existence of bugbears themselves, without the support of magical power, it is still quite difficult for ordinary soldiers to deal with them.

Xia Duo thought of the tiger roar spell he once created, but the low-frequency roar was quite intimidating. He had used it several times before, and most goblins found it difficult to resist.

In fact, let alone goblins, even humans would be frightened to death if they were so suddenly frightened, but they would not collapse to the ground like goblins.

Thinking of this, Xia Duo asked: "Which of you can use the magic scroll?"

As long as the tiger's roar spell is made into a scroll and given to the soldiers for use, they are not required to control the spell, as long as they can make a sound.

He even took out a scroll of level 1 [Magic Alarm], so naturally he would not guard a level 0 [Phantom Sound].

Qiao Qi was surprised when he heard the Lord's question. Could it be that the Lord was planning to provide them with a magic scroll? But the problem is——

"Sir, only senior adventurers can use magic scrolls. I don't know how to use it, and neither do the rest of our team."

If you can become a senior adventurer, who would go to the port to work as a coolie? Who is willing to come to this pioneering land with nothing?

This thought flashed through Qiao Qi's mind, but this thought seemed a bit disrespectful to the lord. He said as if to make up for it: "Sir, there should be someone in Captain Gibb's team who knows how to do it!"

"Gibb?" Sha Duo shook his head. He felt that this question seemed to be in vain. Even a mage apprentice who wants to use a magic scroll needs special training, let alone ordinary people!

Thinking of specialized training, a figure suddenly popped into Sha Duo's mind - Ava. He should have received specialized training in the use of magic items.

He had personally seen Ava open the dimensional bag of the Necromancer and use the [Summoning Mount] scroll. If Ava could be recruited, things would be much easier.

Not to mention training territorial soldiers, he himself is also a very powerful combatant. With the hundreds of people in the entire Daxia, it is estimated that no one except Xia Duo himself and Priest Leiden can beat him.

When he thought of this, Sha Duo became a little excited. He actually had a chance to recruit Ava. Gibb and Ava were familiar with each other, and maybe Gibb could trick Ava over.

While Xia Duo was considering this possibility, he listened to Qiao Qi continue to report on the recent situation.

…

Soon, Xia Duo inspected the entire cordon and encouraged the soldiers before returning to the camp.

As for Gibb, their team is hunting creatures that threaten the camp in the surrounding areas and will not return until evening.

Xia Duo originally wanted to take a tour of the Mystery Lock, but after seeing the real elf city, he was a little distracted by the ruins.

The most precious thing about the Mystic Relics is probably the Mystic itself, but this thing is beyond his ability to study. How many other bits and pieces have actually survived after a long period of time?

Maybe there is only one magic arrow!

Furthermore, whether it is magic arrows or other things, after so many years, they will not escape if they are placed in the mystery lock. Xia Duo has more important things to do now.

It is not planning the development of the territory, nor is it researching the upgrade of the original low-level spells, but an ability related to the core competitiveness of the mage——

flight!

It can be said that the two abilities of "flying" and "teleportation" have established the mage's absolute status in Netheril.

A mage who cannot fly or teleport may still be besieged to death by ordinary people, but as long as he can fly and teleport, it is almost impossible for a mage with normal thinking to die at the hands of ordinary people.

Xia Duo has long coveted [Flying Technique], but he just hid that he had become an intermediate mage and could not obtain relevant information about [Flying Technique] from the Tower of Time.

When he was in the Arcane Federation, he also asked if there were learning scrolls for [Flying] for sale, and the answer was of course yes.

But the price wasn't very good, it was more expensive than a dimensional bag. If he had money, Xia Duo wouldn't mind being ripped off.

But between the dimensional bag and [Flying Technique], Xia Duo still chose the dimensional bag. After all, there are too many uses for portable space.

Mysterious treasures, notes and books, daily food and drink, weapons and equipment, and various consumables, all urged him to turn the balance in his heart.

Without a cover up, he would not dare to use the personal space at will.

The key is that [Flying Technique] is not a rigid necessity for the time being, but once you have a portable space, this thing will immediately become a rigid necessity.

The most important thing is that Xia Duo is quite confident in his research ability. He believes that even if he studies slowly, he will eventually be able to develop [Flying Technique].

Therefore, after completing the [Mage Armor] upgrade project, he immediately turned to [Flying].

…

Creation, transformation, and mind are the three main schools of thought in the new magic system developed by the Nese mage after he obtained the [Nese Scroll].

Mind, as the name suggests, is mind magic.

Creation is mainly related to energy and creation. For example, Xia Duo has mastered [Light Technique], [Water Making Technique], [Mage Armor], etc.

Transformation is quite complicated. Whether it is material transformation or magic transformation, it can all be classified into this system. [Flying] and [Teleportation] are the spells of the transformation system.

Of course, this classification is not mechanical or rigid. A spell has the characteristics of creation and transformation at the same time, so it is normal to be classified into these two systems at the same time.

Xia Duo is good at creation spells, but is relatively unfamiliar with transformation spells. As for psychic spells, he has almost never been exposed to them.

It is indeed difficult to start a transformation-type [Flight Technique] research project now, but it is not without a clue.

The first thing he thought of was [Mage's Hand]. Although this spell was called "Mage's Hand", Shado often used the term "invisible hand" to describe it.

But the essence of this spell is not an invisible force field hand, but a direct drive of the object itself, similar to controlling objects with thoughts.

[Flying] probably means driving other objects instead of driving itself.

Although Xia Duo knew that this plan might be the real idea of ​​developing [Flying Technique], it was also true that he was not good at transformation spells.

If you want to fly into the sky as soon as possible, you can still find some tricks!

Just get a support field under your feet and take him flying. Compared with the transformation version of [Flying Technique], it is similar to the difference between [Flying Sword on Foot] flying and [Incarnate Sword Light] flying.

The former is definitely not as flexible and quick as the latter, but it is already pretty good if it can fly.

The key is that Xia Duo has a deep accumulation in the creation system and can quickly develop the monkey version of [Flying Technique]. As for the transformation system version of [Flying Technique], it can be developed slowly as a long-term project.
