Chapter 254: Blade of Veto

In his sleep, Xia Duo had a dream—

He dreamed of the day he transmigrated; he had just finished uploading the final chapter of his novel and was preparing to go out for a meal, when everything went black, then bright, and just like that, he transmigrated.

This dream alone was nothing unusual; in the first few months after he had just transmigrated to Netheril, Xia Duo often dreamed of scenes from Earth, and dreams of that day of transmigration had occurred before.

But this time, for some reason, Xia Duo dreamed of the past again, and the scenes in the dream were no longer distorted; they were incomparably clear, just like the dreams during a Bloodline Awakening.

It was as if he had re-experienced the process of transmigration.

And this also allowed him to discover some details he had not noticed before, such as his Personal Space.

In fact, it had already existed when he first transmigrated, but his consciousness had always resided within his body, and he had not realized that "consciousness" could also be a substantial existence, let alone discover the Personal Space located within his consciousness.

It was not until he was traveling in the Projection Plane that he realized this point, and afterwards, he discovered this Personal Space with the help of the Elf's Meditation.

Compared to his bloodline, perhaps this was his true Golden Finger.

……

This sleep lasted until the next day; when Xia Duo realized he was awake, he immediately asked the Tower Spirit for the time.

Upon learning that it was already nearly noon, Xia Duo's heart nearly flew out of his chest; if Niya and Aiboke left without waiting for him, he would be in big trouble.

Returning to Savile Territory from Seventon would be very fast by Teleportation, but Xia Duo did not know Teleportation, nor did he know how to use a Mage Tower to teleport or connect to a target on the other side.

Taking a boat was almost the only choice, but that would take at least a month.

Xia Duo immediately rolled over and jumped up, dashed out the door, and arrived at the Public Level of the Arcane Union Headquarters Mage Tower, where the Teleportation Room was located.

"Damn it!"

When he saw that there was no one at the entrance of the Teleportation Room he had arrived at, a drop of cold sweat could not help but trickle down Xia Duo's forehead; he stroked the dark red Mage Robe on his body and couldn't help but grumble to himself:

"Does Niya not worry that I might run off with this Mage Robe?"

Xia Duo looked around, but did not see either Niya or Aiboke; he couldn't help but feel a bit dejected, "Do I have to take a boat back? Or just stay here?"

Just as he was feeling somewhat lost and at a loss, he suddenly received a "call" from Niya, "Xia Duo, come to the Library!"

Before this moment, Xia Duo had never felt that Niya's voice was so beautiful; while blaming himself for forgetting to try the Communication Artifact, he hurriedly replied, "Coming right away!"

The usage distance of this Communication Artifact that Niya gave him was limited, only about 20 li or so, just enough for him to send a message from Daxia Territory to Savile Territory.

It seemed that Niya and the others had not left; in a great mood, Xia Duo immediately walked toward the Library.

Just as he arrived at the Library, he saw Niya and Aiboke walking out of the main entrance one after the other; Xia Duo hurriedly stepped forward, "Lord Aiboke, Mentor Niya."

Niya's face was pale and her eyes were dull; she looked at Xia Duo reluctantly and nodded, while Aiboke said, "Niya just came out of the Secret Chamber and needs to rest. If you have no private matters, we are going to return to the Tower of Time now."

"I have no private matters, we can leave now." How could Xia Duo dare to have private matters? If he were really left behind, there would be trouble; he did not think Aiboke would look after his private affairs.

In fact, Xia Duo had been thinking about strolling around Seventon, but he didn't expect to sleep until now; fortunately it was now, if it were any later, Aiboke and the others might have really left first.

From the Library to the Teleportation Room, the three of them did not say a word; Xia Duo walked at the back, watching Niya sway as she walked, feeling as if she were about to fall asleep.

Upon reaching the Teleportation Room, Aiboke skillfully activated the Portal, and soon, a misty, mirror-like Portal appeared on the portal base.

From this side, one could vaguely see the scene on the other side.

"Niya, you go first; Xia Duo, you stay and go last."

Niya walked toward the Portal in a daze, bit by bit being swallowed by the misty mirror surface, and immediately after, Aiboke also walked in.

Xia Duo passed through the Portal last, feeling as if he had passed through a layer of air film; this was the best teleportation experience he had ever had.

And upon arriving on the other side, Niya's figure had already disappeared; Aiboke waited on this side, and after Xia Duo passed through, he closed the Portal.

Before Aiboke left, he specifically reminded him, "Do not disturb Niya for the next two days."

……

Leaving the Teleportation Room, Xia Duo had no heart to stay in the Mage Tower; he came to the west of the town, walked south along the Wolfburg River, and arrived at the place where he had previously tested his bloodline ability.

Extending his right hand forward, a simple Elf-style longsword appeared in his hand; of course, even if simple, it was still an Elf sword, much more exquisite than human swords.

Ever since he left the Projection Hall of the Arcane Union, he had been wanting to take this sword out.

To see if it was an Illusion, or if it had really been brought out from the Projection Plane!

Only now, holding it in his hand, did Xia Duo truly confirm that he had really brought something out from the Projection Plane!

As Niya said, the Projection Plane is virtual and not real, but now, being able to bring out a real Magic Item at least shows that the Projection Plane has a certain degree of reality.

Perhaps others also have ways to bring things out from the Projection Plane, but he just doesn't know yet.

Xia Duo swung the longsword a few times, feeling it was much lighter than using the Elf body of "Asuosi", and it was still very handy; as for its abilities, there was no need to test them.

When he was in the Projection Plane, Xia Duo had already tested it many times; this type of Standard Magic Sword from Sukanweisa City was specifically designed for Sword Singers.

It only had two magic abilities: one was passive Spell Resistance, and the other was an actively used 【Dispel Magic】.

Very practical!

This was also the main reason why Xia Duo chose this sword; at the time, there were more than a dozen Magic Items he had put into his Personal Space, but most of them were household daily necessities.

Such as fruit plates that could float, lunch boxes that could keep food warm, and the like; the only equipment was this sword, plus a belt and a ring.

The belt increased limb dexterity, and the ring carried a Haste spell.

When it really came time to choose, Xia Duo had almost no hesitation in picking this sword; in fact, even in Sukanweisa City, this sword had a higher value.

"Let's call you 【Blade of Veto】!"

Xia Duo played with this precious Magic Sword that had just acquired a proper name, his heart full of joy, completely ignoring the fact that it once had many "brothers and sisters".

However, upon seeing that his Personal Space was less than a third of its original size, Xia Duo still couldn't help but sigh repeatedly; what a good treasure, how could it have shrunk!

At the time, when he saw that he had to pay the price of space shrinkage to solidify the Magic Item, Xia Duo actually didn't feel much heartache; he mainly wanted to probe this suddenly appearing Personal Space.

But when he discovered that the Personal Space had always existed in his consciousness and was his property all along, not something that had suddenly appeared, he felt the heartache.

"I wonder if this space can still recover?"

Sighing, he touched the 【Blade of Veto】 one last time and put it into the space; Xia Duo was ready to level up!
