As soon as the suggestion was made, Orange Eaton's furrowed brows relaxed, and the other three's joyful expressions faded. It wasn't that these big shots weren't as smart as Lin, a transmigrated lad, to be able to come up with these ideas. The main thing was that they were skilled in the field of magic.
Perhaps being in a high position like the president meant that they had some experience in leadership. However, when it came to business and economics, it was possible that the managers of the chambers of commerce under them were better than them. Hence, they could only stare blankly at the rookie mage who had just finished his long speech.
This should be considered a mutually beneficial proposal, but the biggest reason why these four big shots had come forward to argue today was because of their own interests. After all, the president wasn't a king or an emperor, and there were many things that needed to be discussed. Hence, Orange Eaton spoke first, "My three young friends, regarding today's matter, I don't think we can make a decision on the spot. We need to find some people to discuss and clear our thoughts. Hence, I suggest that we continue tomorrow afternoon. How about that? "
The three presidents were more than happy to hear this suggestion. They had received too much information in a short period of time, and needed to sort it out properly and consult a mid-level expert before continuing the discussion. Hence, they excused themselves and went their separate ways. The three of them returned to the airship to rest, but it seemed that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night. Many people wouldn't be able to sleep.
After sending off the guests, Lin let out a long sigh. At least he had passed this hurdle. When doing things, the worst thing was to be sandwiched between two big shots. If you sided with one side, you would naturally offend the other side. For a man whose goal was to muddle along and wait for death, choosing a side was foolish. Being a fence-sitter was wise.
Lin also believed that with the four presidents' experienced foresight, how could they not see that this was a cooperation plan where they each took a step back in exchange for greater benefits? However, at their level, it was no longer a simple calculation of economic benefits, but a political calculation. They all had their own interest groups behind them, and only by settling the group of jackals behind the scenes could there be a possibility of cooperation.
Just as the three presidents returned to the airship, the airship that hadn't completely landed on the ground seemed to come alive.
One after another, people got off the airship and conversed with Lin, the tower master. Of course, the most popular one was still the open-air hot spring on the second floor. There were all kinds of beauties. Some were apprentices, some were official Magicians, some were alone, and some were in pairs. Outside the pagoda, it was drizzling at night. For those who had never enjoyed it, it was quite sentimental.
Of course, there were some men who borrowed it, but none of them took a bath together. This was because it was not a habit of the Lost Earth World, let alone doing it in someone else's home. As for Lin himself, he planned to endure for a day. He did not want to have any more encounters with women. Especially this time, there was a ship full of people staring at him. Last time, there were only five or six people. If he were to play around and get into trouble, this time, no matter how one looked at it, it would be more tragic this time.
Originally, he thought that these trivial matters could be handled by his two little disciples. Lin could stay in the core room and continue his interrupted research. However, the heavens did not comply with one's wishes. There were still two matters that the girls couldn't decide on that came knocking on their door. Looking at the group of magicians in front of him, it was a grand sight. The leader of the group wore a small cloak with two golden tassels. He greeted Lin Feng and said, "Brother Lin, you're the leader of the group.
"Greetings, Your Excellency Tripwood. I'm the captain of the Gosbotone, Cuenca Carlos. "
In the face of the great magician's salute, Marco Lin did not dare to accept it. He hurriedly returned the salute. And the person in front of him also had the surname Carlos. Perhaps he was related to their president, Jose Carlos. Even if he was not a prince, he must be a real power figure in the Leon District branch. To be the captain of the only airship in the Southwest Peninsula, he could not be a small figure.
"Today's meeting is in my capacity as the captain of the Gosbotone. I'm here to ask for your help. I hope that your Tower will allow me to stay here and replenish my energy. "
After coming to the Lost Earth World, Lin naturally paid more attention to the relevant data when he discovered that there was such an unscientific means of transportation like the airship. The secondary energy pool of the airship could not generate energy on its own. If it had to rely on Magic Stones to recharge, it would cost an unimaginable amount of money. Generally speaking, this was only possible during wartime.
Usually, the airship was left in the Magic Tower and used the tower's energy pool to replenish its energy. And in the spirit of mutual aid between magicians, most tower owners would not refuse such a request.
Thinking of this, Lin was speechless about the semi-permanent energy source that did not require fuel and did not produce waste. The biggest cheat in the maze world was none other than the energy pools in the magic towers. If the God of Earth, Tesla, was here, he would have gone crazy.
Lin basically agreed to Cuenca Carlos's request, but there was a problem. It was like when people on Earth traveled with their mobile phones, they naturally did not forget to bring their own chargers and wires. But there must be a socket to use it.
The Tower of the Great Sage did not have such a thing. There was a facility called a "mooring stake." It could form an energy channel with the special cable of the airship and continuously transmit the power of the Magic Tower's energy pool to the secondary energy pool on the airship.
The mooring stake was not a standard facility in the Magic Tower. Naturally, people who did not need it would not consider it. There was only one airship in the southwest peninsula of the continent. Unless it was in a war, it could circle around the peninsula two or three times for ordinary people or cruising. After sailing for more than a month, it would return to the Leon District to recharge.
Therefore, Lin told Cuenca about his situation. It was not that he did not want to help, but that he could not.
However, Cuenca Carlos was thoughtful. He said, "Sir, don't worry. The people behind me are masters who are good at building Magic Towers. As long as you agree, we will be responsible for the materials and construction of the mooring stake. You don't have to worry about it. "After that, he stepped aside and introduced the older magicians behind him.
They looked more like academic researchers than adventurers. Therefore, the position and attributes of their magic equipment were different from those of magicians who were good at fighting. The only thing that Lin felt familiar about them was the arrogant look on their faces. Back on Earth, some people who were skilled would have the same arrogance when talking about their profession. Lin did not dislike them. Instead, he respected them.
Besides, it sounded like the other party was willing to provide the materials and labor. He just needed to nod his head. There seemed to be no reason to refuse such a good deal.
Therefore, after agreeing, the other party split into two groups. One group returned to the airship and lifted it to the designated parking spot. They also carried the materials down from the ship. The other group followed Lin and went up to the top floor from the central stairwell.
Because the Tower of the Great Sage was damaged, the top of the tower was not spared. When Lin repaired it, he did not restore the top of the tower. Therefore, a large part of the east side of the tower was still missing.
On the north and south sides, there were sharp walls that were used to set up the Arcane Eye. They were like cat ears. The most eye-catching thing was the round ruby the size of a goose egg that was embedded at the top of the sharp wall. This was the main material of the top grade. However, the structure of the wall was not complete. There were still a few hollow parts, which were caused by the lack of materials. Because of this, the Arcane Eye could not be opened all day.
There was also a place to build a mooring stake. Considering the pier for people to get on and off, they could only choose the curbstone on the west side of the tower and replace it with a mooring stake. Other than having to consider the temporary construction of the pier, there were no other requirements. Therefore, Lin pointed at a random spot on the west side and asked, "Masters, is there anything I can help with?"
"No need to trouble you, Tower Master. You just need to activate the energy channel. Leave the rest to us. "
Although he spoke politely, the disdain on his face was undisguised. The temper of the craftsmen in the Mystery World was far worse than that of the country that had been ruined for thousands of years by "everything is inferior, only education is good". Therefore, Lin could only rub his nose. Just the fact that the other party had a few more strands of white hair made it hard for him to complain. "Then I'll go back to the control panel. As long as the energy channel appears, please start working. "
Because it was not a routine operation, Lin did not set the fast casting mode. He could only go back to the control panel in the nuclear room to work. However, what he did not expect was that the mages all over the Tower of the Great Sage were waiting for this moment in the name of communication or borrowing the bathing pool. The moment the magic energy channel appeared, it was the same as exposing the secrets of the Magic Tower to everyone.
Because of the existence of the Magic Tower's logs, and the detailed data of each Magic Tower in the Association, including the internal layout and the types of strategic attack spells built. Therefore, Lin naively thought that the Magic Tower had no secrets in the eyes of everyone. The confidentiality he requested from his two apprentices was only part of his personal privacy. As for the information about the tower, he did not think of keeping it a secret at all.
Other than the nuclear room, which was difficult to station people, mages found all kinds of reasons to stay in the other places. They all pretended to do their own things, and then diverted some of their attention to the layout of the tower. Because they did not know when the Tower Master would reveal the energy channel, and also did not know how long it would be. Therefore, everyone was touching here and there, or looking for people to talk to, trying not to be too conspicuous.
With a buzzing sound, the magic energy channel that was supposed to be a secret began to appear. It started from the energy pool in the nuclear room on the third floor and extended to every corner of the tower. If one stood outside the tower and looked, they would be able to see faint green lines of light from top to bottom, densely covering the entire outer wall of the tower. In the dark night, against the light rain, it was as if the tower had come alive.
The chatter stopped, and the people who were touching everywhere stopped. Even the group of mages who were about to remove the materials for the ship from the airship stopped. They were not trying to remember the secrets of the Tower of the Great Sage. They were just scared silly.
