"Magic Furnace?" Grimm muttered, "Are you sure that's what it said?"
"Yes, Master, I'm absolutely sure!" The gnome Kabi still had a fawning expression on his face, but a crafty glint flickered in his beady eyes. "In order to gain his trust, I took the initiative to give that book to him. I didn't ask for anything in exchange, I only wanted it to let me see the mysterious things it spoke of! "
"And so …"
"So, it brought me around its magic machinery lab and its spider tank with a light screen …"
"What about the Magic Furnace?"
"Of course, that included the Magic Furnace!"
"Mm … You did well!" Grimm nodded in satisfaction, "With your intelligence, you must have left behind an image!"
"Of course, as long as it's Master's orders, Kabi will do his best to fulfill it." Kabi immediately took out a button-sized crystal, "All the images are in here!"
Grimm smiled in satisfaction once again.
Even Grimm was surprised by Kabi's obedience and quick-wittedness.
He thought that betraying the interests of his own kind would cause him to retaliate, but who would have thought that he would accept it without hesitation. He was even able to draw inferences and actively helped Grimm extract the secrets of the Goblin Grand Duke.
With such a loyal subordinate, Grimm naturally could not be stingy.
He rewarded Kabi with a large number of magic crystals, and even a storage belt that Alice did not have. With this, Kabi no longer had to wear seven or eight pouches at once.
After sending Kabi away, Grim immediately sent his mental power into the Image Recording Crystal.
In less than a quarter of an hour, Grimm's expression suddenly changed, and he slowly put down the crystal with a shocked expression.
Damn it, this wasn't a Magic Furnace, but a spatial furnace!
No, to be more precise, it was a prototype spatial furnace!
Grimm suppressed his excitement, and once again replayed the scene he saw in the crystal in his mind. Finally, the scene stopped at the 'Magic Furnace' towering high up in the goblin hall.
It was a huge metal monster that could shock anyone.
At first glance, the height of the tank was 300 meters and the diameter of the tank was 100 meters. It stood there, shaped like a huge capsule. However, the outer wall of this capsule was completely made of a special alloy that flashed with a cold blue light, and what it contained inside was not the substance of the plane, but … the ceaselessly rumbling Void Energy!
Goblins could be ignorant, but wizards who were known as the servants of knowledge couldn't be ignorant either.
Even if it was just a low-grade light screen, even if the light screen was half a kilometer away from the 'Magical Furnace', the complex spatial energy field that filled the entire hall could not be concealed.
This also meant that what was burning in the Magical Furnace was not the elemental energy that the Goblins believed themselves to be, but the Chaos energy of the Void World.
Void Energy was Chaos Energy, not Elemental Energy.
This type of energy was not that type of energy. The two names were similar, but the meaning they represented was as different as heaven and earth.
According to the most ancient knowledge, the multiverse that Grim resided in was immersed in the endless void energy. The Upper Plane, the Material Plane, the Elemental Plane, the Lower Plane … Everything was immersed in this boundless, undulating sea of void energy.
This was an incomparably violent Chaos Energy, and it seemed to have the evil ability to distort one's mind. Thus, there were very few creatures and races that could directly use this energy. However, every individual or race that could control Chaos Energy was a powerful being that stood at the peak of the world!
In order to protect the living beings of the plane from being infected by the Chaos Energy, almost all material planes would spontaneously produce a barrier to isolate the Void Energy. This barrier was like a fetal membrane that gave birth to all living beings. It would pacify the Void Energy that entered through the barrier into docile and obedient elemental energy, and then break it down into elemental particles with different characteristics according to the laws of the plane.
Wizards, magical creatures, elves, divine spell users … The extraordinary power that they possessed came from the ubiquitous elemental energy. They were docile and obedient, and could be controlled and summoned by the consciousness! They were the source of the powerful Wizards, and they could directly control and absorb this power.
As for the Chaos Energy, it was an energy poison that Wizards feared like tigers. Anyone who came into contact with it would definitely die!
Just like Alice, who had suffered a huge loss, foolishly fusing with the Chaos Energy in the Void Stone. If it wasn't for the unexpected advancement that interrupted the assimilation process, Alice would have long been assimilated into a Void Creature through and through by the Void Stone.
However, it was not completely impossible to use Chaos Energy.
At least the Wizard Towers built by Wizards could absorb Chaos Energy and break it down and store it in the Elemental Pool, which was a necessary reserve for the operation of the Wizard's Tower.
However, to achieve this, one could not do without the Wizard Tower.
A Wizard Tower could easily be a few hundred meters tall, and the space inside could accommodate hundreds or even thousands of Wizards. Only a Wizard Tower that was built using many rare resources could come into contact with Chaos Energy without being damaged.
However, at this moment, Grim was surprised to find a group of Goblins from another plane who did not have any elemental talent, but could use simple and crude Magical Machinery to use Chaos Energy.
This … How could he not be surprised? How strange this world was!
Looking at the crisscrossing cables on the light screen, looking at the steaming pneumatic equipment, looking at the Goblin engineers wearing large "space helmets" … Grim felt the world spinning in front of him.
The ignorant were truly fearless!
Were they not afraid that the Space Furnace would explode and raze the entire Goblin Empire to the ground? With the violent nature of Chaos Energy, how could it be tamed by a group of Goblins who could not even shoot Elemental Fireballs? This … was illogical!
Countless curses ran through his mind …
However, Grimm's interest in the Goblin Plane of Existence was piqued.
If he could gather a team in the future, he would choose this Goblin Empire as his first target of invasion. As long as he could get his hands on their Magical Machinery technology and study this "Magic Furnace" thoroughly, with the help of the strange methods of the Wizards, it might not be impossible for him to build his own Magical Machinery Empire!
Grim could not help but feel a little excited as he thought about this.
… …
Knight Dimension.
Insects and cicadas chirped incessantly in the lush green forest. The lush forest undulated slightly with the mountain breeze.
A small team was making their way through the forest with difficulty.
The person in charge of opening the path was a burly man wearing chainmail armor. The double-edged battle-ax that was as big as a wheel was as light as a feather in his hands. Every time he chopped, he would carve a wide path in the forest.
Although there was a path, bushes, vines, and thorns still covered the path, making it difficult for the team to move.
There were only five people in the team. Other than the man with the battle-ax leading the way, the others at the back were also burly and strong. Their gray traveling cloaks bulged up, and judging from the shape, they seemed to be carrying some large weapons with them.
"Locar, how much longer until we reach our destination? I hate this hot and humid environment to death. Smack … "One of the guys in the middle of the team grumbled and slapped a mosquito that refused to leave his face.
The mosquitoes in the forest were indeed ferocious. Just their heads alone were the size of a finger. If they were full of human blood, their ugly and wrinkled abdomens would expand to the size of a palm.
With a single slap from this guy, the mosquito's abdomen would rupture, and he would be splattered with his own blood.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it …" The harsh environment made him irritable. "I hate these mosquitoes, I hate this forest, I hate everything … I don't want to run anymore. I'd rather go back and fight those blood-sucking demons. I'd rather die in battle than rot in this damned forest … "
"Silence!" The burly man at the back of the team was obviously the leader. He scolded sternly, "No one will stop you if you want to die, but you can't drag others down with you. Ximu, don't forget your glory as a Radiant Knight! "
"Glory, glory …" The guy called Ximu had obviously broken down. "You still talk about glory every day. We're being chased around by those damned wizards like dogs. Where's the glory and dignity? The Royal Bloodline has been wiped out by them with evil sorcery. What can we do from now on? "
Ximu's panicked words silenced the entire team.
The crushing defeat in the Greenland Forest, the dragon attack on the capital, and the invasion of the giant dragon that spread across the continent … All of these brought to the Kingdom of Knights could not be compared to the loss of the Royal Bloodline!
As the wizards seized control of the continent, the once glorious Demon Hunters became stray dogs. They were bitten by hordes of wolves, tigers, and leopards until they bled profusely.
However, those who wanted to attack them and exchange their knights' heads for the wizards' rewards did not pose a real threat to them. The terrifying wizards who were on their tail were the real nightmares they needed to avoid!
The former Blood Queen was no longer elegant. Instead, she had become a bloody witch that terrified even the Radiant Knights and Spellbreaker Knights.
The demonic insects were no longer weak. As they sucked their flesh and blood, the terrifying insect demon became more and more terrifying. Many of the knights in the team died tragically in the mouths of the millions of beetles it controlled.
"Silence. I think I heard something?" The leader of the team, the strong man with the giant axe, suddenly shushed them.
Everyone immediately shut their mouths. They held their breath and listened attentively to the movements of the grass in the forest.
Amidst the rustling of the forest, there seemed to be a faint, strange sound ringing.
It was the sound of flying monsters flapping their wings.
"It's the bloody witch! Go … Everyone, go … "
The team leader's expression changed drastically as he shouted with all his might.
Amidst the loud shout, a black swarm of bats swarmed out of the forest in the distance and covered them like a dark cloud.
