Chapter 2476: The Construction of the New City Begins

~8 min read 1,476 words

Xia Duo does not have the habit of going to bed early, nor does he have the habit of going to bed late, but because the banquet ended early, it is far from time to rest now, not to mention that his energy currently far exceeds that of an ordinary person; going without rest for several days and nights is not a problem.

It is just that considering daily Spellcasting, he will not push himself to that extreme; he basically maintains a normal routine.

"I have read your recent research notes; there is significant progress compared to before. Regarding the optimization of the number of Nodes in the near future, I have these few points of advice—"

Xia Duo took out the research notes Niya had given him earlier and provided guidance to Niya while comparing them to the specific content on each page; Niya would occasionally frown in confusion, and at other times nod in realization.

Once Xia Duo finished speaking, Niya asked all her questions at once, then Xia Duo answered, Niya continued to ask, and Xia Duo continued to answer, cycling like this until Niya had no more questions.

"I understand. This project can be completed in a week at the latest, but when the time comes for Spellcasting—"

"Leave the Spellcasting to me!" Xia Duo promised as expected.

Niya has not yet perceived the tenth layer of the Magic Net, let alone the pinnacle achievements of Elven Magic involved in the construction of a Mythallar; before Niya can create her own Saint Form Avatar, it is basically impossible for her to build a Mythallar on her own.

Of course, after completing this project, with Niya's foundation as an Arcanist, as long as she performs one targeted Tenth-Ring Spell equivalent, she can successfully become a Great Arcanist.

Although there is still a gap compared to Xia Duo's own standards, for the current Netheril, she is already considered basically qualified; her research ability exceeds the average level, and she mostly just lacks some experience in Spell Duels.

"I really want to see what the Communication Mythallar will look like once it's finished!" Niya leaned against Xia Duo and murmured.

Not being able to personally build what one has researched is somewhat regrettable for a researcher, but Niya now understands the significance of the division of labor in society, so she is not overly obsessed with having to build it with her own hands.

Xia Duo could sense Niya's subtle mood, but he deliberately pretended not to understand, "Then you need to hurry up next; the faster you finish, the sooner the Communication Mythallar can be built."

"Mm!" Niya clenched her fist, as if she had made up her mind, "I've decided that for the next week I will shut myself away to do research; I won't participate in the construction of the new city!"

"Huh? Are you serious?"

"Yes, there are so many people for the new city construction anyway, they don't lack me; I want to hurry and finish the final optimizations so you can build the Communication Mythallar as soon as possible."

Although Niya is already close to being a Great Arcanist, she only acts as a tool for Spellcasting in the new city construction ritual, and even Saville, this Great Arcanist, is also just acting as a tool.

Now that Niya wants to do things she cares more about, she naturally does not want to be a tool anymore.

However, for Xia Duo, this is really not a question of whether one more or one less makes a difference; although the individuals assisting in the Spellcasting ritual are indeed acting as tools, the current Spellcasting team is not well-staffed, and the impact of losing one person is still very obvious.

Niya not going means that the Spellcasting tasks she was supposed to shoulder need to be shared by others; on the premise that no one makes a mistake, this actually increases the Spellcasting burden on everyone.

And considering the possibility of errors by members of the Spellcasting team, losing an excellent Spellcaster like Niya is also a great blow to the team's fault tolerance.

Such a situation is of course not what Xia Duo wants to see, "Niya, don't be like this, I need your help~"

"Fine, I agree!"

Niya's sudden change of heart caught Xia Duo off guard; he had originally thought it would be very difficult to persuade her, but he did not expect Niya to just play a little trick on him.

Xia Duo has noted this "grudge," and when they return to the bedroom later, he will give Niya an unforgettable "lesson."

Two days later, there was still no news from Seventon.

Xia Duo did not want to waste time; he sent a Sending to Yinaole to tell the other party that he might be unreachable for the next few days, and if there was progress in the consultations and negotiations between Seventon and the Seven Towers, they could use the Arcane Union's channel to send a message to the Tower of Time.

"If you have things to do, go ahead and get busy; it might take a while for there to be results here in Seventon!"

Upon receiving Yinaole's reply, Xia Duo did not hesitate any longer and immediately took the Tower of Time's Phase I new city construction team to the Floating City construction base—the Blue Crystal Plane.

Most of the people brought over this time had never been to the Blue Crystal Plane; of course, most of them had not even been to any Other Plane before.

Among them, the one with the most experience is naturally Saville, who has been to countless Planes and is now almost a natural candidate for a Plane Scholar; Xia Duo is also more inclined to let this elder develop in the direction of a Plane Scholar.

After receiving the Plane Attunement, everyone seemed to have become natural Water Element creatures, appearing at ease in the unique underwater environment of the Blue Crystal Plane.

"So this is the Blue Crystal Plane! It really looks like a pure blue Gemstone!"

The Blue Crystal Plane is scarce in Earth Elements, and gravity is negligible; in the clear water, it is filled with weak Positive Energy, which brings light and also makes this body of water exceptionally clear.

Being in it is like being in the sky, with nothing to rely on in any direction; this wonderful experience is very novel and beautiful even for a High Mage who has already mastered Flight.

Xia Duo did not urge everyone immediately, but let them wander around the Blue Crystal Plane to vent this fresh excitement.

And except for Murloc Island, the water part of the Blue Crystal Plane is actually very monotonous; there is almost nothing else besides water, after all, even fish and water plants need nutrients to survive.

The water here is almost all pure water, and only on Murloc Island are there abundant nutrients like humus and soil; as for the vacuum side, although Xia Duo placed an Air Manufacturing Device and a Positive Energy Channel there, the original negative energy and vacuum environment had long since extinguished all life forms.

Murloc Island can be said to be the most brilliant part of the entire Blue Crystal Plane; other places might be quite interesting and novel at first glance, but after looking at them for a long time, they are actually just that.

And because Xia Duo has plans to use this place as a secret construction base for a Floating City or other large Magic Facilities, he has no intention of building any entertainment facilities or underwater landscapes here.

Up to now, except for some equipment on the vacuum side, it remains almost entirely natural and in its original state.

Soon, when the High Mages of the Spellcasting team had finished touring the entire Plane and calmed down, they all returned to Xia Duo's side one by one.

"Spirit Thought Network public network new city construction channel, is everyone ready?"

Xia Duo has the Permission Level to know the network status of every connected person; after everyone put on their Inspiration Headband and entered the public network new city construction channel, he began to issue instructions through the Spirit Thought Network.

"Follow the positions rehearsed in the Main Plane."

In fact, there is no fundamental connection between positioning and Spellcasting; the fewer the people, the less one needs to care about positioning during Spellcasting, but when there are many people, if only one Spell Source Point is used, not everyone can perceive the Spell Source Point.

Then it is necessary to perform Spell decomposition, breaking down what one Spell Source Point can do into multiple Spell Source Points to complete; in fact, coordinated Spellcasting, or Ritual Spell, is based on the Spell Source Point as the basic unit.
