In fact, Xia Duo should have gone back last month, but he hadn’t finished reading the books at Grada’s house, or he hadn’t memorized them well.
Now that his hope of becoming an intermediate mage has failed again, Sha Duo has to face the fact that he may not be able to level up in the projection plane.
Now that the Grada family's book was almost finished, and the void was already approaching his residence, he did not want to personally verify whether stepping into the void could really lead to a direct return.
It's time to go back!
He quickly returned to the study and sent all the borrowed books and "home" books into his portable space. Although he knew that the probability of taking them back was extremely low, he still did so.
——[Messaging Technique]
--no target
Xia Duo shook his head and showed a wry smile. He originally wanted to say goodbye to Grada before leaving, but he didn't expect that he just saw him when he borrowed books from his house, and now he didn't know where he went to play.
The void has already approached "Assos"'s house, and of course it is also near Grada's house. Once Grada enters the void, Shado will naturally be unable to contact her.
At least we can't contact him directly through [Messaging Technique].
The projection plane at this moment was like a display screen that gradually darkened from the edge. Sha Duo was helpless in it, but he still wanted to make his first projection journey a little more successful.
After collecting all the things at home that could be stored in the portable space, he went to Grada's home. As if he was a dying man who had seen through life, he chatted casually with Crona about home affairs.
At noon, Grada, who was tired from playing, finally came back. After lunch, Xia Duo said goodbye calmly. Under the surprised gaze of Grada, Crona concentrated all her energy and called out from the bottom of her heart——
"return!"
For a moment, Xia Duo's consciousness seemed to be completely separated from the world around him. At this time, he noticed that there was a faint silver line on the top of his head pointing to his body!
When the thought of returning was sent out, the silver thread automatically responded and soared into the sky with his consciousness. The last thing Sha Duo "saw" was that the house of "Athos" had been devoured and the people were rushing towards the Grada house.
Endless nothingness.
The next moment, Xia Duo entered the silver void that he had only seen for a moment when he came here, followed by another scene similar to a sci-fi jump.
The difference from when I came was that there was a silver thread pulling in front of me when I returned.
This silver cord may be his consciousness itself. His consciousness has always been in the body, but it is extended into the astral world through some kind of magic, so that the terminal of perception is in the projection plane.
When Xia Duo's consciousness jumped, in addition to the silver thread, he also noticed that the portable space still existed, but almost all the things contained in it disintegrated the moment they left the silver void.
Books, notes, tableware and furniture were all missing.
Only a dozen of the magic items still exist, but as Shado gets closer and closer to the main plane, these magic items become more and more illusory!
If nothing else, these things will eventually disappear without a trace.
After finally making a trip, and it happened to be projected onto the elf, Xia Duo was naturally unwilling to return empty-handed. When this thought came to his mind, the only dozen or so magic items left in his carry-on space suddenly stopped continuing to be illusory.
trend.
But what followed was the shrinking of the portable space. Originally, this space was about 100 cubic meters, but as Xia Duo wanted to save these dozen magic items, the space quickly shrunk.
Looking at it, not even half of it is gone, and it continues to shrink.
But these dozen magic items have only stopped the trend of continuing to be illusory, and have not really been preserved. If they continue, they may not even be able to save space.
In a flash of lightning, Xia Duo made a choice. Except for one sword, all the other magic items instantly disintegrated, while the sword immediately solidified.
The trend of space shrinking was also weakening. Xia Duo was neither happy nor sad, silently "watching" all this until his consciousness suddenly went dark and then brightened.
Returning to the hall where the projection journey started in the Austrian Union, under the bright ball of light.
The moment his consciousness returned, Xia Duo felt the heaviness of his body, which was obviously different from the nimble and light elf body.
For a while, he even forgot how to walk.
"Xia Duo, you're back. Let's take a rest outside!" A very unfamiliar voice suddenly came.
Xia Duo thought about it for a while, and then remembered who it was that was summoned, it was Ai Burke. Although when Ai Burke came, Xia Duo just went under the light ball, and then his expression changed after a few seconds.
But for Shado, he has actually stayed in Sukanvisa City in the projection plane for more than a year, and it will be almost a month before he joins the Tower of Time!
He had not had much contact with Aibo, and they had been separated by more than a year in the projection plane. If Sha Duo hadn't still remembered him, Niya, and Aibo coming to the Arcane Federation to read the "Scroll of Nese"
I guess he wouldn't even think about Ai Boke.
Time is really a good medicine for healing memories!
Sha Duo immediately left the ball of light and quietly identified who Aibo was from the outside. Sha Duo's impression of him was indeed a bit blurry.
Sha Duo followed Aibok and left the projection hall together with other mages who had finished their projection journey.
…
When they got outside, Aibok left a message, "Go find the rest room by yourself and meet in the teleportation room tomorrow."
Then he drifted away.
At this time, Xia Duo also felt extremely exhausted mentally. Although his body was still very energetic, he always wanted to find a place to sleep.
But before going to bed, there is one more thing that must be done.
Under the guidance of the tower spirit, Sha Duo resisted his sleepiness and went to the magic item exchange office of the Arcane Federation and purchased a dimensional bag.
It is said to be the masterpiece of a certain master of the Arcane Federation. The asking price is 2,000 gold coins, and there will be no counter-offer. In this seller's market, what else can Xia Duo say?
I can only bite the bullet and buy it.
Lord Saville's exchange voucher is not easy to use here. You must first find a merchant to exchange it for a voucher from the Alfa Federation. This exchange will directly reduce the value by 20%.
Once this dimensional bag was purchased, plus the cash paid for buying slaves, Xia Duo only had less than 1,000 gold coins in cash.
well--
Secretly sighing that life was so difficult, Xia Duo casually put this obviously not brand new dimensional bag into his arms and left the exchange office.
Spending a huge sum of money to buy this thing is purely to conceal the existence of the portable space. The 2000 gold coin jewelry is really too luxurious.
…
In the lounge.
Sha Duo tried to use elf meditation instead of sleeping, but meditation that could be easily accomplished in the projection plane was not possible in the main plane.
As sleepiness set in, Xia Duo had no choice but to give up this attempt. He took one last look at the Sukanvisa City standard magic sword in his portable space and fell into a deep sleep.
