There were countless civilizations in the universe, and they had different methods of using natural crystals that contained Origin Energy. The more crude method of using it was to directly extract Origin Energy from the crystal to absorb, strengthen, or replenish the Origin Energy that one had consumed. For example, the Earth Federation was mostly used as an energy supply unit for certain devices, or in the sequence of magical energy equipment. Heavenly Party Planet was rich in resources, and there was no lack of veins of various Origin Energy Crystals. The residents of Planet Heaven used these Origin Energy Crystals differently. In the Shadow Duchy, there were some outsider experts who directly used Origin Energy Crystals as food. As for the Bailey Empire, the use of Origin Energy Crystals was more reflected in alchemy.
Alchemists were generally in the hands of the imperial family. They obtained knowledge from ancient ruins and applied it to Origin Energy Crystals. Different types of Origin Energy Crystals had different uses. For example, blood crystals produced from the throat of devils would usually be made into Blood Boiling Demon Crystals, Angry Blood Demon Crystals, and so on that could stimulate the user's Origin Energy in a short period of time. For example, the Lightning Fury that Elise used was made from the top of a peak, a crystallized lightning stone that had been eroded by lightning and fire for many years. Alchemists used secret techniques to embed specific Origin Energy patterns. When the user activated it with Origin Energy, it would cause the lightning and fire origin energy within the lightning stone to boil or even explode, in order to achieve the effect of large-scale destruction.
However, the materials for lightning stones were limited. Even with the wealth of the Bailey Empire, the reserves of lightning stones in the treasury were still scarce. The Lightning Fury made from it was even more limited, and it was mostly used in war. It was almost unique for Elise to carry a lightning fury on her body.
"Then tomorrow, I'll be looking forward to Sir Allen's arrival."
At the entrance of the Frost Moon Hotel on Seventh Avenue in Satin City, General Slin and a group of city nobles watched Allen get into the carriage and waved goodbye. Private Ficken, who was acting as the coachman, waved his whip and two pure white horses strode forward, pulling the carriage towards the Hotel Flying Elephant.
Tonight's dusty banquet could be said to be a feast for the guests, and Allen was naturally warmly welcomed. However, whether it was General Slin or the rich people in the city, they were overly enthusiastic, which made Allen feel very uncomfortable. Even though Slin was the one who started it, Allen did not think that a viscount of the Empire could attract so much attention. At the banquet, behind those smiling faces, he always felt that there were other hidden meanings.
Inside the carriage, Edward waved his hand and was about to say something. Suddenly, a dull roar came from outside the car, and the curtain shone with a dazzling blue light. Edward pulled up the curtains at lightning speed. Allen looked out the window and saw a pillar of lightning rushing up from the city in the distance. The center of the light pillar was blazing white, and the periphery was blue and purple lightning. Electric snakes swam around the light pillar.
After the pillar of light gradually disappeared, thick black and red smoke slowly rose up, and the fire in the thick smoke illuminated the nearby buildings.
Allen and Edward looked at each other.
At the entrance of the hotel, Slin stood on the steps of the bar's door and also saw the pillar of lightning soaring into the sky. His face turned ashen, and he said in a deep voice: "Vette, go and find out what happened."
An old subordinate who had followed General Slin for a long time, Wuwu, called a guard to go.
"General Slin, what's going on? I think that direction is Celestial Garden Street, right? Could it be that there's a riot? "A fatty with an oily face and luxurious clothes said worriedly.
"What, you said Garden Street? God, could it be that something happened to my manor? "
The sudden appearance of the pillar of lightning made the faces of the nobles around the general pale. Among them, there was no lack of residents of Heavenly Garden, and they hurriedly called their men to the street to check. Slin slightly released a bit of his aura and said with a dignified expression, "Everyone, don't worry. I've already asked Vette to bring someone to check. This is Satin City, a city guarded by our Emerald Bucks Army. I will never let anyone's property suffer any damage. Please rest assured about this! "
Slin thought to himself, the viscount has just arrived today, and such a thing happened in the city. Could it be that these two things are related? Since the location of the accident was Celestial Garden Street, where all the big shots in the city lived. Forget about the identities of these people, there was no lack of backers behind them, and none of them could be offended by Slin. Slin was worried. He called the messenger to send an urgent message to the barracks and immediately mobilized a group of city guards to assist Vette.
The curtains were put down again, and Edward casually set up a layer of Origin Energy Barrier to prevent the conversation in the carriage from leaking out. He said indifferently, "Looks like someone won't give General Slin a good life."
Allen could tell that there was something in his words and cast an inquiring look at him. Edward smiled and said, "If I remember correctly, that direction should be Celestial Garden Street. The people living there are all the big shots in Satin City. Think about what happened there. Slin won't be able to sleep well for the next few days. "
"Speaking of this Slin, don't you think his attitude is very strange? If he were to make things difficult for us, I would think it would be more normal. But we cut off his source of income from selling slaves, but he acted as if nothing had happened. " Allen spread out his hands and said, "I'm not good at dealing with this kind of person. You can't guess what he's thinking or what he's planning. In this case, I'm completely passive. "
'"You don't have to worry about Slin's attitude. Didn't he lead the way for us and the Chamber of Commerce in the city last night? Tomorrow, bring Sean and the others to meet these big shots of the Chamber of Commerce. Slin will also attend. When the time comes, you can sell the batch of swords and guns we recycled on the spot. You can use this opportunity to test Slin's reaction. We can also use this opportunity to clarify which Chamber of Commerce has dealings with Slin and which can become our allies. "
Allen frowned, "That's because Slin planned the attack last night. Your play of throwing stones to ask for directions is worth watching. What if it wasn't Slin? "
'"That's even better. Attacking an imperial viscount is no small matter. It's just the right time to give Slin some work. Let him track down the mastermind of last night's attack for us. If we can drag Slin into the water, then the situation will be chaotic. And the more chaotic the situation is, the more advantageous it is for us. "
Allen pointed at Edward and secretly praised him for his beautiful arrangements. He said in agreement, "This is the so-called fishing in troubled waters, right?"
"Yes, the empire, especially the northern capital. The more turbid the water is, the more advantageous it is for us. Unless you want to be the target of public criticism, then pretend I didn't say anything. "
Allen laughed and scolded, "Bullsh * t, I'm not so bored as to be the target of public criticism. You … Eh?" His heart skipped a beat as a familiar aura crashed into his perception. At the same time, a series of screams suddenly rang out from a shop on the left side of the street. Several men and women ran out of the shop as if their butts were on fire, and one of the men's forehead was bleeding. Then, the shop's sign and door exploded at the same time, and three figures shot out like lightning.
