Chapter 2437: Showing Off Skills, Class Identity

Countless structures, both understood and misunderstood by Huo En, appeared one after another. He watched the occurrence of all this almost greedily, sighing incessantly in his heart, "Too fast, too fast."

This macroscopic Magic Net structure, suspected to be a Mythallar, appeared far too quickly, yet its coverage did not expand; it changed constantly within a square inch, soon exceeding Huo En's range of understanding, and continued to slide rapidly in an unknowable direction.

"This, this—"

Huo En was too shocked to speak, able only to look at Xia Duo with a dull gaze. Only after a moment did he realize this was Jilan Tower; regardless of whether the other party harbored malice, allowing them to cast incomprehensible Spells inside the Mage Tower so freely was truly too dangerous.

Thinking of this, Huo En hurriedly spoke to stop him, "Lord Xia Duo, that is enough, no need to demonstrate further. I have fully understood the value of your Floating City."

Seeing that Huo En seemed truly nervous, Xia Duo did not continue to perfect the Mythallar. This was not actually the Mythallar currently used by Chang'an City, but rather some functional components of the New Mythallar he had brought back from the Red Heart Alliance.

In doing so, he had both the intention of showing off his skills and the thought of probing Jilan Tower; after all, such opportunities did not come by often.

In reality, the one he most wanted to probe was Giles Tower, because it possessed the strongest Plane Exploration technology in Netheril at present. Plane Exploration delved into the Ether Interlayer, but such a grand undertaking, and one starting from the Main Plane, would inevitably affect the Magic Net of the Main Plane.

Just like Xia Duo at this moment, although the Mythallar component just now had not been fully constructed, it still had a certain utility; at most, the local Magic Net information it perceived and received was real or illusory.

A moment ago, I analyzed it with Perception, which could somewhat allow me to obtain some details of Jilan Tower, such as its internal Protection system, spatial structure, and so on.

Distributed Nodes actually weaken the environment's support and influence on the Mythallar, placing more support on the nodes themselves; only in this way can node Movement be achieved, and the Mythallar can move along with it.

This time Laolunsimu did not reply, and Xia Duo finally saw Yinaole, whom he had not seen for over a year. At this moment, Yinaole was wearing a set of Elf-style formal attire, as if he had rushed back in the middle of a banquet without even having time to change his clothes.

But what Xia Duo was saying to Jilan now was actually based on the certainty that the tower had limited knowledge in the field of Mythallar, making it easy to be confused by the simply perceived new functions.

In the past, Yinaole, although a Bard, gave people the feeling of a Paladin, as if he were deliberately posturing. After going to Akaola for exchange and study for over a year, he seemed to have changed some of his existing ideas.

Only senior researchers who have truly delved into the field of Mythallar and achieved great success can understand how exaggerated the Mythallar component Xia Duo just shaped was, and such researchers, in the current Main Plane, could probably be counted on one hand.

Xia Duo was truly leaving this time; having just unleashed a big move, he had to give the tower time to react and discuss, and he himself was in a hurry to see Yinaole. He was very interested in the content of the dispute between Laolunsimu and Badijiaer in the prophecy vision.

Xia Duo was thoughtful; art is actually a manifestation of culture, and culture is essentially the aesthetic embodiment of a civilization's ruling class. There exist huge, hard-to-ignore differences between Elf society and the current Great Xia Territory.

And on Xia Duo's side, after leaving Huo En Gao Ta, he returned to the Arcane Union at the first opportunity, and Laolunsimu also received the news immediately and sent a Sending to ask:

Laolunsimu's well-intentioned reminder warmed Xia Duo's heart, and he replied, "Mm, I will be careful. I have something on my end, so I won't go to you, Teacher."

If one were to discuss technical content, if the Chang'an City Mythallar did not consider the groundbreaking nature of its Adaptive Mythallar, the whole thing combined did not have as much technical content as the new Mythallar component he had just demonstrated.

"Lord Lord, long time no see."

"Tell me why?"

"Lord Xia Duo, is the Mythallar on Chang'an City this one?"

That was clearly not the scene of Laolunsimu and Badijiaer meeting just now; it was a certain possibility he had obtained from perceiving the future Time Line. If he could understand it in advance, it might be beneficial for the upcoming negotiations.

"A feeling?"

This time when Xia Duo left, Jilan did not try to persuade him to stay again. He had already realized that the tower had misjudged Xia Duo's Floating City and even various aspects. He urgently needed to exchange information with others and then discuss the subsequent countermeasures.

……

In other words, if Evereska could cut off the giant stone platform where they were located, there would actually be a chance to turn it into a Floating City.

"Perhaps something went wrong inside them. It is not convenient for me to go to the hall for such matters; you just pay more attention, do not easily get involved."

After exchanging some pleasantries, the two sat down one after another, but Xia Duo's gaze remained on Yinaole. Having not seen him for over a year, Yinaole's appearance had not changed much, but the feeling he gave him seemed to have become much more steady.

"Something happened at the tower? I don't know, Jilan said so?"

"Everything is going smoothly at the tower, right?"

"No, that was just for the convenience of demonstration. The Chang'an City Mythallar can move along with the Floating City; naturally, it is not something an ordinary Mythallar can compare to."

"I can't say, it's just a feeling. The longer I stay there, the more awkward I feel. Even without Lord Lord's summons this time, I was planning to end the exchange and return in the near future."

"Lord Jilan, the demonstration ends here for now. As for the introduction, I will only say one thing: the Chang'an City Mythallar will absolutely exceed your imagination. Of course, such superb skill cannot be exchanged for just a section of a mountain peak. As for the specifics of the transaction, we will discuss it next time."

Otherwise, it would still be basic infrastructure fixed to the environment.

"It's okay, overall it's going smoothly. By the way, Teacher, have you heard if anything happened at the tower?"

And Bards are the most susceptible to emotional influence, from the inside out, so the feeling they give people has undergone some subtle changes.

Xia Duo's words were not false. If one simply thought that using the form of a Material Node could make a Floating City move, that would be a big mistake. In fact, it also requires combining the structure of Distributed Nodes to truly move.

Laolunsimu was clearly also attracted by this new situation. As Xia Duo walked toward the trading area of the Arcane Union, he replied to Laolunsimu, "Jilan revealed it; it seems they intend to seek help, but he didn't say exactly what happened."

"The art of the Elf is undoubtedly profound and steady, but it is not suitable for humans, not suitable for us."

Actually, in Xia Duo's hometown, there is a similar saying: when technology reaches a certain level, it will increasingly appear natural, making people unable to perceive it.

Xia Duo's Perception ability is not weak, so he naturally discovered this change very easily, and thus he officially opened the topic, "How does it feel to exchange at Akaola?"

In reality, it is caused by limited cognition, which is why there is the saying, "The layman watches the excitement, the expert watches the doorway."

In other words, in the year and more that Yinaole has been exchanging with the Elves, his identification with the Great Xia Territory has become deeper and deeper. That is a thing worth being happy about! "Yinaole, long time no see."
