"I am sure that I have not participated in any conspiracy against Cliffe. In my opinion, all this is completely an accident. If the Seven Towers deliberately planted them, I will definitely rise up!"

Xia Duo said decisively, and at the same time, this was also the most true thought in his heart. A senior arcanist was determined to sabotage, even the Seven Towers would have a headache.

It is precisely because of this that in Netheril, the senior arcanist has the status second only to the great arcanist, and the opinions of the senior arcanist will be widely sought before any major decision is made.

Of course, senior arcanists generally respect the results of collective decision-making when they do not involve their core interests, especially personal safety, and the minority obeys the majority.

A few extreme cases, whether it is a senior arcanist or a higher arcanist, will try to avoid it in advance, and if that happens, it will definitely end with a complete compromise or complete destruction by one party.

Xia Duo didn't want the most extreme situation to happen to him, but if it did happen, he would definitely make his opponent feel the crazy revenge from his hometown under the guidance of the ideology of unrestricted warfare.

…

Behind the desk, Iolum listened to Chateau's statement silently, but he did not expect that his nominal student would be so strong.

He had always thought that Xia was young and mature for many years, good at planning, and good at compromise. Now this reminded him of the way he was when he was young. Perhaps this is what a young man really looks like.

"Don't worry, Seven Pagodas won't do that, and I won't allow this to happen!"

After thinking about it, Iolum took another book from the bookshelf behind him, sent it to Chateau, and said in a gentle tone:

"These are some details of the recent negotiations between the Seventon Parliament and the Northland countries on the Northland Alliance. You can take it back and have a look, and make preparations early!"

"Negotiating details?"

Chateau didn't understand how Iolum mentioned this suddenly, but he still stretched out his hands to "pick" the book from the void in front of him.

Just about to turn around and take a look, he suddenly thought of something, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, hesitatingly asked: "The teacher meant-I can leave Seventon and return to the South now?"

"Yes it is."

Iolum nodded slightly, pointed to the newly-appearing ornament on the table, and explained:

"Even [Fate Track] can't find any possibility for you to participate in this matter, and there is nothing to say on the Seven Pagodas. If you want to return to the South, you can leave now."

Following the direction of Iolum's fingers, Chateau once again turned his gaze to the strange ornament in the corner of the desk. This thing similar to the multi-layer hairspring structure is called the "trajectory of destiny"?

Is it really possible to detect fate?

Xia Duo feels that this is more likely to be used for polygraph detection. Of course, it doesn't have to be a polygraph function. Otherwise, you can just find a priest with a strong sense of care, instead of using this specifically.

Maybe there is some kind of function to verify reality. In that case, it might really be related to the legendary "destiny".

While thinking about it, Xia Duo unknowingly stopped her eyes on [Fate Track] for a while, seeming to notice that Xia Duo became interested in [Fate Track], Iolum said with a smile:

"What? Feeling curious?"

"It's a little bit." Xia Duo retracted his gaze and said truthfully.

"Then this [Fate Track] will be given to you!"

"what?!"

Chateau almost doubted whether his ears had heard something wrong, but Iolum's calm voice appeared in his ears again:

"I said, this [Fate Track] is for you!"

This time Xia Duo heard it clearly, but he was even more puzzled. This [Fate Track] sounded very high. Is it because I was curious about it, Iolum gave it to myself so casually?

Chateau felt very puzzled.

In the face of Iolum, a wise old man who understands the world, Chateau did not hide his thoughts. To this, Iolum's answer is—

"For me, this is just a toy, as long as I want it, I can make it again at any time. Its real function is to link the magic net and let the magic net reveal its destiny, which is limited to what happened in the original magic net environment in the past. .

"But you don't expect to use it to predict the future or go back to the past. If there is no divine grace and holy power of the Mysterious Lady, it will not have any effect."

After hearing Iolum's answer, Xia Duo realized that this [Fate Track] was not actually some orphan magic item, but more like a certain quantity product.

In theory, any magic item can be mass-produced. Only a few materials that use a certain substitute element need to analyze the element replaced by that material, or find that material.

This [Trajectory of Destiny] is entirely composed of extremely fine Mithril wires except for a wooden base, which is a category that can be fully mass-produced.

As for Iolum's "it cannot be used without holy power, divine grace", Chateau is not worried. The goddess of magic and the Lord of Radiance have great goals, and all of his divine arts can be transformed into general auras. Magical!

In layman's terms, even the effect of [Fate Track] obtained through divine grace and holy power can be transformed into arcane magic, and it can be learned by an arcane spellcaster who is not a goddess priest!

In addition, through Iolum's answer, Chateau seemed to have discovered a secret, of course, this secret was not strictly a secret.

The most magnificent and magnificent mystery temple of Netheril is in the Iolum collar, and the place with the largest proportion and number of priests of the magic goddess is also in the Iolum collar.

Although Iolum has never clearly expressed any belief inclination, he has the sacred power and divine grace of the goddess of magic. Isn't it easy to make inferences?

Even, Chateau suspected that this time Iolum sent him [Fate Track], it might be "accepting new" for the priests of the goddess.

But for such a solicitation, Xia Duo was not tempted, even if he personally participated in the ascension ceremony of a new god, and he had already begun to perform certain steps in the ascension ceremony. uukanshu.com But his understanding of God is still very lacking.

Even if there is no hidden danger in the belief in Mystery Lady, he would not do it. He still understands the truth of "I would rather be the head of the chicken than the queen of the cow".

Once accepting the Holy Power, it means joining other existence-dominated and more rigorous order, which is bound to interfere with the order created by oneself.

He is more inclined to use his own order such as tolerance, absorption, and assimilation of other existing orders, or in the words of his hometown, "seeking common ground while reserving differences."

Obviously, accepting sacred power means accepting the "differences" between other beings and oneself, which is regarded as actively accepting assimilation, which is not acceptable to Xia Duo.

As the saying goes, there are no two leaves that are absolutely the same in the world, and there are no two ideas that are absolutely the same, and this also destined that Xia Duo would not accept any divine power.

Of course, Xia Duo can also accept it first, and then give up after using it. If it is some unavoidable or urgent situation, perhaps it will not be a problem to do so.

But if you do this regularly, I'm afraid it's not because of how the word "God Punishment" is written.
