Wizard Clemens of the Wizard Union's investigation department had been very annoyed lately. The Nation of God had launched another attack. Although they didn't achieve anything this time, it was still a huge slap to the Wizard Union's face.
He had already mobilized his intelligence network across the entire continent to search for clues about the Nation of God, but the results weren't very good.
The Nation of God's intelligence network was all made up of ordinary people, and the Wizard Union's intelligence department had never paid much attention to them. If they wanted to do that now, it would take a lot of time and effort just to build an intelligence network among ordinary people.
It was not something that could be built in a short time. The original investigation network took hundreds of years to build bit by bit.
As soon as Wizard Clemens heard about the attack on the Iron Furnace Fort, he immediately ordered the investigation department to search for all the people involved.
However, the dwarves wouldn't allow him to meddle with the internal affairs of the Iron Furnace Fort. The dwarves had a lot of power in the Wizard Union, and the Iron Furnace Fort was an important place for the dwarves.
But that wasn't the only thing that bothered him the most. According to the latest report, out of the 7 law-defying wizards in charge of the Wizard Union, other than him, the other 6 had all gone to Master Bennett's place.
Although he didn't know what the 6 law-defying wizards were talking about with Master Bennett, it should have something to do with the investigation of Master Bennett's relationship with the totem pole.
Those 6 law-defying wizards went to Master Bennett's place right after the meeting he proposed. It was not hard to guess why.
It was not a good thing to offend Master Bennett. Master Bennett had a lot of connections with the other law-defying wizards, legendary wizards, and the goddess of the moon. Although Master Bennett did not seem to move around much, he had already formed a huge network in the Central Continent.
Wizard Clemens cursed his fellow law-defying wizards for selling him out. This kind of meeting was supposed to be top secret.
The main reason for this was Wizard Hume. Wizard Hume had a very good relationship with Abel, so he went to Abel's place first and had a meeting with him in the name of buying a sky ship.
The other law-defying wizards of the Wizard Union were not idiots. Since Wizard Hume was going, there was no way they would reject a favor that was readily available. Therefore, the other law-defying wizards also came up with all sorts of excuses to meet Abel.
"It seems like I need to improve my relationship with Master Bennett!" Wizard Clemens mumbled to himself.
…..
Druil Joseph was also very annoyed these few days. Master Bennett had gone into retreat again and handed over everything to him.
He was not afraid of many things, but the representatives of the most powerful forces in the Central Continent had come to see him. Even the elves had to think twice.
Therefore, he had to be extra careful when he received them. He didn't want Master Bennett to get into trouble because of him.
They were all here for the same reason. They wanted to discuss the sky ships with Master Bennett.
Sky ships had become the most popular war machine in the Central Continent. Every faction had heard from the dwarves that Master Bennett was the only one who could make the core material for a sky ship. If they wanted to buy a sky ship, they would have to get Master Bennett's permission.
It was not that the dwarves wanted to push the problem to Master Bennett. They just didn't have enough materials in their storage.
On the other hand, the Wizard Union's orders were easy to handle. The Wizard Union could provide the materials themselves, but it was almost impossible for these forces to do so. Who would collect metallurgy materials and rare metals that had high value but no practical use?
Even if some forces had them, they might not even be able to make a sky ship. Think about the size of a sky ship. They were all made of rare metals.
The dwarves didn't even have enough rare metals and metallurgy materials for themselves. Master Bennett was the only one who could make all the core materials, and they had to pay for the lite healing potions and mana potions. Therefore, they decided to split the materials equally with Master Bennett.
Druid Joseph sent another representative away, "Don't worry, I'll let Master Bennett know when he's done with his retreat."
He let out a long breath of relief when he saw the empty meeting room. It had only been a few days since he came back from the dwarves, but he had seen more powerful figures than he had in the past few hundred years.
"Joseph, thank you for your help these few days!" Abel said with a smile as Frankenstein appeared in the living room with Abel.
"Master Bennett, it's no trouble at all!" Druil Joseph quickly bowed.
Abel waved his hand, "I have enough materials for 100 sky ships in the warehouse. Tell the dwarves that we need 50 of them. Let's distribute the rest to each faction according to their share."
These materials were the spoils of war from the holy portal bag. Unlike the Wizard Union, the Wizard Union used up a lot of resources to build the Doomsday Defense Wall.
The Nation of God, on the other hand, stored all the resources they collected in the holy portal bag, so Abel had a lot of resources.
For example, the materials for skyships were extremely precious, but they could be found on the frontlines. The materials in the artifact portal bag were enough to build a thousand skyships.
If he didn't want to scare the dwarves, he wouldn't only take out 100 sky ships.
Although Abel didn't show up for the past few days, he knew how desperate the need for sky ships was.
In the central continent, the Nation of God's attacks were always stacked with human lives, but now there was a war machine that could suppress the Nation of God's Holy Knight formation. How could they not go crazy?
Druil Joseph was also shocked by Abel's words. He calmed himself down and asked, "Master Bennett, how much are you selling these sky ships for?"
Abel thought for a moment and replied, "You can talk to the dwarfs about this. We don't want magic gems or potions. Just let them trade with their own resources!"
Druid Joseph knew that Master Bennett wasn't lacking in gems. Although he didn't know how many gems Master Bennett had, he knew that there were plenty of magic circles set up everywhere in this unassuming house.
On top of that, there was a large-sized protection circle, a large-sized teleportation circle, and a research spirit. The house consumed a lot of energy every day. If he didn't have a lot of gems, he wouldn't be able to afford a house like this.
Master Bennett never asked for gems in any of his trades, so you could imagine how many gems he had on hand.
As for potions, if he traded with a master potion maker and still gave him potions, it would be a slap in the face.
Abel had a lot of gems in his holy portal bag. Even if he didn't count the ones he synthesized, there were still a lot of gems in his holy portal bag. Although the number of top-level gems was limited, the low-level ones were piled up like a mountain.
To Abel, light gems were what he needed the most, but not every force had a reserve of them. The only things he was interested in were some special resources.
After telling Joseph the Big Druil, Abel went straight back to the Iron Castle. He spent most of his time here, hidden and safe.
After Joseph the Big Druil received Abel's order, he contacted the dwarves through the teleportation circle. The dwarves responded quickly and followed Wizard Hutton to Abel's house.
"Joseph the Big Druil, I heard you say that Master Bennett has a hundred sky ship materials?" Wizard Hutton didn't greet Joseph the Big Druil as soon as he saw him. Instead, he asked with a questioning tone.
It wasn't that he didn't trust Joseph the Big Druil. Joseph the Big Druil represented Master Bennett, so it was reasonable for him to trust him.
The dwarves had been accumulating for thousands of years, but they only had seventy sky ship materials. It wasn't easy to get them. They were all mined from underground mines.
According to Joseph the Big Druil, Master Bennett had a hundred sky ship materials. It was beyond his imagination.
Wizard Hutton knew that there were a lot of resources in the frontline, but the Wizard Union was very strict about it. Even the materials used by the dwarves in the frontline were strictly controlled.
Could it be that Master Bennett went to the front line to mine resources?
Wizard Hutton knew that it was a bit of a fantasy. The Wizard Union was always monitoring the front line, and even the Nation of God wouldn't just let people mine those resources.
In a battlefield, the important resources were guarded by the battle forts of both sides, but it didn't mean that the less important ones weren't guarded.
Most of the class holders who died every year died in the unguarded mines of the front line. There were fierce conflicts between the class holders of the Central Continent and the Holy Knight.
Wizard Hutton didn't expect his fantasy to be so close to the truth. Abel didn't mine the resources of the front line. Instead, he took all the resources that the Nation of God had been mining for years.
Druid Joseph didn't answer him directly, "Come with me, Wizard Hutton." Instead of answering him, he bowed and made an inviting gesture.
Wizard Hutton bowed back, "This way, please."
The two walked towards the warehouse in the house. Druil Joseph used his identity card to verify his identity, and the door opened automatically.
Wizard Hutton walked into the warehouse and saw a hundred portal bags. They were all neatly arranged in the warehouse, taking up very little space. They didn't look very eye-catching when they were thrown on the ground.
Druil Joseph took out a portal bag and handed it to Wizard Hutton, "Take a look and see if the materials are right, Wizard Hutton."
Wizard Hutton took the portal bag. It was a 20-square-meter portal bag with all kinds of rare materials inside. The one that caught his attention the most was the metallurgical material for the main circle.
He didn't expect Master Bennett to have already made the metallurgical material for the main circle. He took the portal bag back. As long as there were enough blacksmiths to work on the blueprint, the sky ships could be made in the dwarves.
He took out another portal bag in disbelief. It was also full of materials and metallurgical material for the main circle.
Wizard Hutton sighed, "Druil Joseph, I didn't expect Master Bennett to have already finished his work."
According to his estimation, it took Master Bennett at least a few months to prepare the metallurgical material for the main circle. It seemed like Master Bennett had been preparing for this for a long time.
As a matter of fact, Abel only spent a few nights in the Dark World to complete the 100 metallurgical material for the main circle.
Druil Joseph thought Abel had been busy with this, "I don't know the details, Wizard Hutton, but Master Bennett has been busy in retreat lately."
Wizard Hutton couldn't help but sigh at the generosity of Master Bennett. Let's not talk about the materials. Just the portal bags alone were enough to make a hundred of them twenty square meters in size.
Druil Joseph suddenly spoke, "Oh, right. You still have to return these portal bags. Master Bennett specifically asked for it."
These portal bags were the spoils of war that Abel had been collecting for his family. Of course, he didn't find all of them. Some of them were from the elven royal palace.
The elven royal palace had no choice but to give them to Abel. They owed him too much for the sky ships. No matter how painful it was, they had to find enough 20-square-meter portal bags to make up for the 100 of them.
A 20-square-meter portal bag was pretty much the best of the best. Usually, only advanced wizards or top-tier law-defying wizards could equip them.
It was no wonder Abel specifically asked for them. The value of these portal bags was hard to estimate. Of course, the dwarves were professionals, so they wouldn't be greedy.
