Besides, to Connoris, the value of the resources in the Endless Abyss was far inferior to his relationship with Lin Li. Even if Lin Li wanted the entire Endless Abyss, Connoris wouldn't shake his head and say no, let alone the resources in the Endless Abyss.
Connoris was not a person who would be blinded by the benefits in front of him. Until now, he still couldn't see the limits of Lin Li's growth, and he reckoned that Lin Li might become another figure like the Immortal King or Geresco. Even a fool could tell that as long as he could stay by Lin Li's side, he wouldn't have to worry about not getting more benefits in the future.
Hence, after hearing Lin Li's words, Connoris nodded and agreed without hesitation. He immediately followed Lin Li's instructions, and quickly chanted a few demonic incantations to open a small Gate of the Abyss in the embassy.
Since Lin Li said immediately, Connoris naturally didn't delay at all. After greeting Lin Li, he stepped into the Gate of the Abyss to receive everything left behind by the Great Demon God Mosari.
After Connoris returned to the Endless Abyss, Lin Li didn't plan to continue staying in the Gilded Kingdom. The questions in his heart had already been answered to a certain extent, and the founding celebration of the Gilded Kingdom was considered over. Hence, there wasn't much meaning for him to continue staying there.
However, before leaving, Lin Li still had one more thing to do, and that was to purchase the Magical Crystal Cannons from the Gilded Kingdom.
In fact, one of the important purposes of Lin Li's trip to the Gilded Kingdom this time was to track down the Immortal King, and the other was to purchase the Magical Crystal Cannons of the Gilded Kingdom. Although the Magical Crystal Cannons of the Gilded Kingdom didn't have much technical content, at least he didn't have to waste any more time.
The founding celebration of the Gilded Kingdom had already been held, and regardless of whether the outcome was satisfactory or not, the Gilded Kingdom probably wouldn't be interested in doing it again. Hence, the purchase of the Magical Crystal Cannons was the only thing left for Lin Li to do in the Gilded Kingdom.
The next day, under the personal lead of King Bradlor, almost all the important ministers of the Gilded Kingdom went to the embassy of the Tower of Dusk to express their gratitude to Lin Li for what had happened in Hopra Square. Of course, the gratitude of the Gilded Kingdom was not just verbal. Lin Li could be considered to have saved the entire Gilded Kingdom from a crisis, and it was a debt of gratitude that could not be repaid easily.
In order to thank Lin Li for his help, the Gilded Kingdom also showed great sincerity, and took a long time to move the gifts to the embassy. There were a lot of gifts from the Gilded Kingdom, and the quality was definitely not low, either. There were top-grade magical gems that were the size of a fist, marine crystals that contained pure nomological power, rare magical metals, and so on.
There were also 10 pieces of magical equipment that were said to be treasures from the royal treasury of the Gilded Kingdom. They were four magic staffs, three sets of mage robes, a magic sword, and two magic beads. In the world of Anril, those 10 pieces of magical equipment might not be comparable to the Helios' Scepter, which was an Epic-level magical equipment, but they were still considered superb.
However, those things were not that attractive to Lin Li. Be it the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, the Helios' Scepter, or the Space Robe, none of them could be compared to those pieces of magical equipment. Even the equipment of the mages of the Tower of Dusk was not inferior to those pieces of magical equipment, even though they were not famous.
Of course, since the Gilded Kingdom had sent them over, Lin Li would not pretend to be noble and refuse them. He could give them to others even if he could not use them. Even if the mages of the Tower of Dusk did not use them, they could still give them to others as gifts. In short, even a stone would have its value eventually.
After some pleasantries, Lin Li mentioned the purchase of the Magical Crystal Cannons, and the Gilded Kingdom no longer had the intention to make things difficult for Lin Li. They were all very clear that with Lin Li's strength, it would not make a difference whether he had the Magical Crystal Cannons or not if he were to go to war with the Gilded Kingdom. A few mageweaths would be enough to make the Gilded Kingdom suffer.
Since there was no longer the problem of funding the enemy, and they wanted to curry favor with Lin Li, the Guru of Inscription, Bradlor and the others naturally would not make things difficult for Lin Li on this issue as long as they were not stupid.
"President Felic, feel free to tell us. Even if we don't have enough in our inventory, we will definitely satisfy you by removing them from the battleship!" Bradlor waved his hand, and guaranteed Lin Li.
Of course, it would be an exaggeration to say that they would remove them from the battleship. After all, there were already thousands of Magical Crystal Cannons in the inventory of the Gilded Kingdom. In Bradlor's opinion, no matter what, Lin Li could not really empty the inventory of the Gilded Kingdom. At least, the transportation would be a huge problem that could not be solved.
As for the ministers of the Gilded Kingdom, after hearing Bradlor's guarantee, none of them felt that there was anything wrong with his words. They would not deliberately make things difficult for Lin Li, but there were also those who wanted to see Lin Li make a fool of himself, such as the ministers who were originally in charge of the battle. Even if they could not defeat Lin Li, they still wanted to see him make a fool of himself.
They were well aware of how difficult it was to transport a Magical Crystal Cannon, especially to the Breezy Plains that was thousands of kilometers away. It was definitely a huge project that was similar to ants moving an elephant. It was true that Lin Li was a Guru of Inscription, but could a Guru of Inscription draw a mageweath and move hundreds or thousands of Magical Crystal Cannons? That was obviously impossible.
Lin Li naturally saw their expressions, but he couldn't be bothered to argue with them. Instead, he said to Bradlor, "Your Majesty Bradlor, I've been here for a long time, and there are still many things to do at the Tower of Dusk. Since you have no objections, I think we should arrange a time as soon as possible to complete our transaction."
"Okay, President Felic." Seeing that Lin Li had the intention to leave, Bradlor did not try to persuade him to stay any longer, knowing that it was meaningless to be polite to Lin Li. Hence, he continued, "Tomorrow, I'll arrange for someone to accompany you to see the goods. Do you really not need our help with the transportation? "
Bradlor really wanted to build a good relationship with Lin Li, so he was not in the mood to watch Lin Li make a fool of himself. Instead, he once again proposed to help Lin Li with the transportation of the Magical Crystal Cannons.
However, Lin Li waved his hand indifferently, and said, "I've said it before, we can solve the transportation problem ourselves. There's no need to trouble you."
Hearing that Lin Li still insisted on transporting the Magical Crystal Cannons himself, Bradlor could not say anything more despite being very bewildered. Hence, after setting a time with Lin Li, he left the embassy with the ministers.
Early the next morning, Prince Monterey of the Gilded Kingdom and Elder Zumar of the Illuminati once again went to the embassy of the Tower of Dusk, and brought Lin Li to carry the Magical Crystal Cannons according to the agreement. Prince Monterey was naturally there to complete the transaction with Lin Li on behalf of the Gilded Kingdom. The reason why Elder Zumar tagged along was to express the importance that the Illuminati attached to Lin Li. He wanted to help Lin Li keep an eye on the Gilded Kingdom lest the Gilded Kingdom cause any more problems.
Under the lead of Prince Monterey and Elder Zumar, Lin Li first arrived at a small satellite city outside the capital of the Gilded Kingdom, which could be considered an industrial city that specialized in the production of Magical Crystal Cannons.
After visiting the production process of the Magical Crystal Cannons, Lin Li followed Monterey and Zumar, and finally arrived at a heavily guarded warehouse. The warehouse was extremely large, but there were less than 20 Magical Crystal Cannons in it. It was not that the Gilded Kingdom was being careful, but rather that the Magical Crystal Cannons were too large, and the warehouse was already filled with less than 20 cannons.
In order to avoid Lin Li's misunderstanding, Prince Monterey explained, "Don't worry, President Felic, this is just one of the warehouses. There are six such warehouses in this city, and there are more than 100 completed Magical Crystal Cannons."
Prince Monterey felt that the 100-odd Magical Crystal Cannons were probably the limit of the Tower of Dusk's transportation capacity without the help of the Gilded Kingdom. He was even prepared to talk about helping Lin Li transport the Magical Crystal Cannons when Lin Li was put in a spot.
Elder Zumar knew that there were many people in the Gilded Kingdom who still wanted to see Lin Li make a fool of himself. Hence, before Lin Li could show any signs of being put in a spot, he immediately interjected, "President Felic, we, the Illuminati, also have our own transportation fleet, so you don't have to worry too much about the transportation."
However, Lin Li shook his head slightly, and slowly walked past the Magical Crystal Cannons. As Lin Li walked past, something that Monterey and Zumar couldn't believe happened. The massive Magical Crystal Cannons actually disappeared from the warehouse without a sound!
Monterey rubbed his eyes hard, but when he looked up again, he saw that the entire warehouse had almost been emptied. Apart from some junk stacked in the corner, the massive Magical Crystal Cannons had all disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Elder Zumar's mouth was also agape, and his jaw seemed to be on the verge of dropping to the ground. His eyes were filled with shock as if he had seen a ghost. He looked at Lin Li who was standing opposite the warehouse, and was at a loss for words for a long time.
Where did the Magical Crystal Cannons go? With Monterey's and Zumar's common sense, they knew that there had to be some kind of spatial magic equipment that could make things disappear. However, the problem was that even the most famous spatial magic equipment in history, which was said to be close to an artifact, couldn't have such a massive space!
In Monterey's and Zumar's memory, the best spatial magic equipment that they had ever seen had at most a space of more than 10 cubic meters. With a space of more than 10 cubic meters, it would be impossible to even fit a base for a Magical Crystal Cannon, let alone nearly 20 Magical Crystal Cannons.
At this moment, Monterey and Zumar finally understood why Lin Li had repeatedly refused their kind offer to help with the transportation. Even the largest cargo ships would need to be used to transport 20 Magical Crystal Cannons. Besides, there would be a certain amount of risk involved in the voyage. However, if they were installed in spatial magic equipment, there wouldn't be a need for cargo ships at all. In fact, Lin Li could even open a spatial rift and return to the Tower of Dusk with the Magical Crystal Cannons.
However, just when Monterey and Zumar were shocked by Lin Li's spatial magic equipment, Lin Li walked towards them, and said, "Okay, didn't you say that there are still a few warehouses?"
Hearing Lin Li's words, Monterey and Zumar were completely dumbfounded. Could it be that 20 Magical Crystal Cannons weren't enough to fill up the space of Lin Li's magical equipment?
However, Lin Li did not intend to care about their feelings. Since King Bradlor had already said that he could take whatever he wanted, there was nothing for him to worry about. Lin Li was not deliberately trying to cause trouble for the Gilded Kingdom, but for the Sky Castle, there was no such thing as having too many Magical Crystal Cannons. If they could really fire 10,000 cannons at the same time, they would be invincible.
Unfortunately, even the Gilded Kingdom couldn't have 10,000 Magical Crystal Cannons. Even if they dismantled all the cannons on the battleships of the Gilded Kingdom, they probably wouldn't be able to gather that many Magical Crystal Cannons. Besides, Lin Li did not intend to be so ruthless. If he really made the Gilded Kingdom dismantle the battleships, it would be too much.
Just like that, under the lead of Monterey and Zumar, Lin Li came to the warehouses that stored the Magical Crystal Cannons one after another. Each time, he would plunder everything clean. After emptying the six warehouses in the small city, Monterey already knew that the 100-odd Magical Crystal Cannons were obviously unable to meet Lin Li's needs. Hence, he had no choice but to bring them to the weapons warehouses of the major fleets.
In half a day, Lin Li had almost walked around Four Seasons Island, and put all the Magical Crystal Cannons in the warehouses of the major fleets into the Ring of Endless Storm. In the end, Monterey and Zumar were already numb. They could not imagine how massive the space in Lin Li's spatial magical equipment was.
Finally, after gathering 2,000 Magical Crystal Cannons, Lin Li looked at Prince Monterey who was on the verge of tears, and reluctantly said, "Okay, I'll buy these first. They're barely enough."
Thank God, it's finally over! Monterey was really afraid that Lin Li would really have to dismantle the battleships if he was still not satisfied. If Lin Li were to really make such a request, it would definitely be a huge headache for the Gilded Kingdom.
Lin Li had already packed the goods, and the next thing to do was to discuss the price with Monterey. Originally, the Gilded Kingdom thought that if Lin Li only wanted four or five Magical Crystal Cannons, they would simply give them to him as a favor. However, Lin Li had now installed more than 2,000 Magical Crystal Cannons. No matter how rich the Gilded Kingdom was, they could not afford to give him such a huge gift.
When it came to more than 2,000 Magical Crystal Cannons, even Prince Monterey dared not make a decision on his own. Hence, after returning to the embassy of the Tower of Dusk, he immediately bade farewell to Lin Li, and went back to ask King Bradlor and the ministers for their opinions.
