Two hours later, Grimm came out of Ratman Councilor Pyro's wizard tower.
On the way back to the Byron family's encampment, Wizard Nunnally stared at Grimm and said calmly, "If you have any more void stones, the Byron family is willing to buy them at an extremely high price. I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"
Being stared at by the other party, even with Grim's composure, he could not help but break out in cold sweat. However, he could still control himself and forced a smile, "My Lady, that void stone of mine is a trophy from the Planar War. Since I'm not familiar with its characteristics, I recklessly tested it. As for the consequences, you've seen it for yourself … "
After saying this, Grimm's face revealed a look of extreme regret.
Wizard Nunnally stared at Grimm calmly for a long time before withdrawing her gaze and not saying anything else.
The atmosphere in the carriage was rather awkward.
When they returned to the encampment, they found that everything had returned to normal.
The combat team sent out by the Sky Guards had long since left, and the encampment had returned to normal. Even the damaged ground had been repaired by the Magi who stayed behind.
2% of the resources promised by Ratman Councilor Pyro sounded like a small amount, but it was enough to make the Byron family one of the top shops in the 12th district. As soon as Nunnally returned to the encampment, she gathered all the Magi in the family and began to make some appropriate arrangements for the future development.
Of course, Nunnally would definitely interrogate Wizard Angus in detail in private. Information about Grimm would also be sent to the central continent through some secret channels.
However, all of this was destined to be in vain. With the speed of Grimm's rise, most families in the scattered Tower Forest region would not have heard of his name. Even Grimm's other rather popular title of 'Fire Demon' only had a little influence around Ferdenan City.
Apart from that, it would be extremely difficult for anyone to dig out any more information.
After all, with the fall of the Swamp Tower, all the acolytes who knew of him had already turned into dried bones. Everything that happened in the magic swamp would be covered up by time.
However, Grimm no longer had the strength to understand the subtle psychological changes the Byron family had towards him.
Once he returned to the encampment, the first thing he did was to summon Kobi to his room, and the two of them started a secret discussion.
When the dense protective spell covered the whole room, Grim stared at Kabi with an ugly expression and said sternly, "Speak! What did you get for making such a big mess for me this time? "
But soon after, Grim was shocked by what Kirby took out.
The blueprint of the Fel Reaver!
A sample of the Magic Energy Cannon and its manufacturing blueprint!
Seven high-purity elemental crystal cores!
Ignoring the goblin Kabi, Grimm's eyes flashed with blue light. The A.I. Chip used the shortest amount of time to scan the blueprints into his brain, and quickly began to construct a holographic model based on the data.
Soon, a hundred-meter tall mechanical giant with a deafening berserk energy engine and a thick, cumbersome mechanical construct that emanated frightening magical radiance was born.
Its main attack method was to rely on its sturdy body and terrifying weight to crush its enemies.
When such a large mechanical body raised its huge metallic foot and wantonly crushed the mortal army, the sound of flesh and bones being crushed would indeed be effective in destroying the morale and confidence of its enemies. However, its enemies were destined to be the mortal armies. If it wanted to rely on such 'trash' to fight against Magi, perhaps a small 'Swamp Spell' would be able to easily defeat it!
However, such a Fel Reaver was not completely trash. At least from the blueprint, the energy barrier and the method of using 'magic energy' to protect the body's core still had some research value.
It could be seen that the Goblin Empire that designed this blueprint did not have a complete set of spells. Perhaps the goblins were a group of people who were insulated from spells. They lacked the means to directly use elemental force, so they could only focus on the fusion of elemental force and mechanical constructs.
It was no wonder that they called this gigantic mechanical giant a Fel Reaver. It was practically a Gundam from another world. However, it was not powered by mysterious spell formations or runes, but by a combination of elemental force and metallic machinery.
Magic machinery!
Hmm, calling it a magic machinery is quite appropriate!
After understanding this Fel Reaver from another world, Grimm simply scanned the book on Witchcraft Puppets into his mind and began to model them one by one before converting them into data.
In terms of the essence, magic machinery and the Goblins from the Sorcerer World were related by blood.
Both of them used their huge bodies and sturdy bodies to crush their enemies.
The difference was:
The Goblins had an animated mechanical heart within their bodies, so they had some basic human-like intelligence. Therefore, Magi only needed to give them some simple instructions and they would be left alone.
Magic machinery, on the other hand, was just a machine. Although it had a magical energy system, it did not have any independent intelligence to speak of. Therefore, the operation of magic machinery could not be separated from the control of intelligent life forms.
The core of the Goblins was the mechanical heart, while the core of magic machinery was a small console.
This was perhaps the only difference between the two!
Seriously speaking, magic cannons were also a type of use of magic energy. They could guide the energy stored in magic crystals and release it in the form of pure energy.
When a fire elemental crystal was inserted into a magic cannon, the attack form was similar to a Witchcraft Fireball. However, the Goblins called it an energy bomb. When an ice elemental crystal was inserted, it would fire a freezing ray. When an electric elemental crystal was inserted, it would turn into a taser gun. When a negative energy crystal was inserted, it would fire a corrosive ray.
Although the Goblins did not have any talent in spells, they were good at using energy. Grim estimated that even the ordinary version of the magic cannons could reach an astonishing 20-30 degrees of damage per shot.
This attack power was indeed a little low compared to a Wizard's spell attack that could reach up to 100 degrees.
However, magic cannons were not like Witchcraft equipment that could only be used by Wizards with elemental talent. Magic cannons were a completely simplified elemental crystal launcher. Even an ordinary person would instantly have the power of an advanced Wizard Apprentice.
The Goblins were not stupid. They would not sell their most powerful weapon to Kabi. If these magic cannons were the lowest level of magic weapons, they would only need to develop magic weapons with an attack power of 100 degrees to instantly give their people the power of a Magus.
Moreover, the cooldown time of magic weapons was short, so they could basically achieve this. This allowed them to have a higher attack frequency when fighting against acolytes.
Ten ugly goblins equipped with magic cannons could easily overturn ten fully armed sorcerer-apprentices. If the entire Goblin Plane was popularized with magic weapons, their overall power would be comparable to some medium-sized planes.
However, Grimm's crazy conjecture was quickly rejected by the A.I. Chip. The reason it rejected was also irrefutable.
The so-called Goblin Empire's overall power could not reach Grimm's conjecture. The main reason they were limited in their development was the lack of elemental crystals.
As the saying goes, success is due to low magic, failure is also due to low magic!
It was precisely because the Goblin Empire was in a plane with low magic power that they generally lacked talent in magic and were forced to walk the path of magic technology. However, for magic technology to develop rapidly, a large source of energy was indispensable!
The Goblin Plane with low magic power naturally did not have a large reserve of elemental crystals, so they had to find another suitable source of energy to develop their magic technology. From this perspective, Grimm was very optimistic about the Goblin Empire.
As long as they could solve the problem of the source of magical energy, with their use of magical weapons and machinery, the goblins would rapidly rise as a powerful armed force that would raise eyebrows in the Multiverse!
To be honest, if he could control such a Natural Servant Race, Grim felt that it would not be a problem for him to conquer the universe. However, before he had absolute power, it was impossible to suppress these wild Goblins, so he could only bear with it.
Only when his strength reached a new level and his subordinates had enough chips to deal with a planar war would he have the chance to consider invading this so-called Goblin Empire.
With this understanding, Grimm could only comfort the Goblin Kabi with gentle words to boost his courage. He even specially approved a batch of resources and funds for Kabi to maintain contact with the Goblin Empire from another plane. However, in order to avoid raising a tiger, Grimm drew a red line for Kabi.
What kinds of things could be traded and what kinds of things couldn't be traded, everything was listed clearly.
Grimm wanted Kabi to keep Gaz 'ruvi hanging with continuous trades, but he could not really nurture this vicious wolf into a ferocious tiger. Hence, every time he made a deal with Gaz 'ruvi, Grimm had to personally look over the items and check them strictly.
Kabi could only be a yes-man towards this point.
In Kabi's eyes, integrity, loyalty, and kinship were all fleeting clouds. The only thing he needed to care about was obtaining his master's favour. As for selling out his own race to his master, as long as the price was right, he would gladly do it!
