Did something happen to Elsa?
Tang En froze for a moment. Anyway, the matter had already been ordered, and there was nothing else for the time being. He went straight to Elsa's house.
"Sir Lord!"
"Big brother!"
Elsa and Elijah were in the courtyard. When they saw Tang En, they ran over.
Tang En hugged Elijah who was clinging to him and asked: "Elsa, why are you looking for me?"
Elsa shook her head a little shyly and whispered: "It's not me who is looking for you, it's my father."
As soon as her voice fell, Abedon came out of the house: "Long time no see, Sir Lord."
"Mr. Abedon, you calling me Sir makes my scalp tingle a little."
Tang En shook his head with a wry smile: "You are an elder, and I have received a lot of care from your father. You should just call me by my name."
Abedon glanced at Elsa and then looked at Tang En. Suddenly, he laughed and patted Tang En on the shoulder: "As a subject, etiquette is indispensable. Of course, I understand your kindness in my heart."
Tang En bared his teeth and forced a smile. This guy actually used force on purpose.
But then again, his strength is really not small … Sure enough, he hid it well.
"Mr. Abedon, why are you looking for me?"
"No hurry, let's talk inside. You see, Elijah is hanging on to you and is unwilling to come down. As her father, I don't have this kind of treatment."
With that, Abedon forcibly pushed Tang En into the house.
Elijah, who was hanging on to Tang En, made a face at Abedon.
Abedon shook his head with a wry smile.
"Aunt Clairat, sorry to disturb you."
Tang En smiled and greeted Clairat, and said in surprise: "Your complexion looks better than before. It seems that you are in a good mood recently."
"It's not a matter of mood."
Clairat took out the necklace and shook it. The blood-red gem pendant sparkled. She smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Sir Lord. Father gave the blood soul stone to Elsa, and Elsa let me wear it. That's why my body has become much healthier."
"I see."
Tang En looked away, and said with a smile, "But Auntie Clairat, you really hid it well. If I hadn't accidentally talked about you with Auntie Vanessa, I wouldn't have known that you're her disciple, and a Guru-level mage registered in the City of Silver."
Clairat smiled gently and said, "That's all in the past. Ever since I had Elsa, I haven't studied magic for a long time."
"Now that your body has recovered a lot, can you come and help me?"
Tang En was desperate for talents, especially when there were so few mages in this world. Other than Elijah and Fiona, whom he had cultivated himself, he hadn't seen any other talented mages.
Clairat was a Guru-level mage who had studied magic. She was a well-known figure in all the Prandal countries. Of course, he would try his best to get her on his war chariot.
"Sorry, Sir Lord. Actually, I'm still very weak now. I can't cast spells like before."
Clairat looked apologetic. Her tone and behavior were full of noble etiquette. Even if she rejected the invitation, it was impossible to be angry.
"Don't worry, it's not a battle. It's just some magic research."
Tang En explained, "You should have seen the things that Ellington has been producing recently. Our research is on how to make magic power commoner."
"Make magic power commoner?"
Clairat was startled. "Forgive me for being blunt, Sir Lord. This is basically impossible. It's not just because of the lack of talent, but also because there are too many conflicts of interest involved. In fact, Sir Jean and Sir Angus had similar ideas in the past, but they gave up in the end because it's too difficult. It's almost impossible to fight against the traditional interests of the entire world."
Tang En was also stunned. Could it be that there were still secrets hidden in the City of Silver?
"But in fact, Sir Lord is already doing it now."
Elsa interrupted in a low voice, "The Magic Energy Combine Harvester is a very effective step …"
"Indeed."
Speaking of this, Clairat also had a look of admiration on her face. "This is incredible, but the most important thing is that the impact is too small now."
"Thank you for the information. This is very important to me."
Tang En stood up solemnly and thanked her.
"You're welcome. If you need my help, as a citizen of the territory, of course I'll contribute my strength. However, Sir Lord, it's better if you don't have too much hope."
Clairat had actually agreed to Tang En's invitation in the end, but due to the restriction of the Mage Neutrality Treaty, she could not agree to Tang En openly, so she could only hint to him like this.
After figuring it out, Tang En heaved a sigh of relief.
"Okay, okay, are you done?"
Abedon said helplessly, "Elsa, make tea. Let's talk about business … "
"Business?"
Abedon's face suddenly became serious. "I heard that the Haerzom mine collapsed, and the entrance to the underground world appeared?"
Tang En nodded. "That's right."
There were so many miners who returned at that time, and Tang En did not deliberately suppress the news. Now, all the people in Ellington knew about this.
"Also, I heard that you're collecting food and are planning to go to the underground world to trade with the dwarves?"
"On one hand, it's to redeem Tina." Tang En was a little embarrassed every time he said this. After a pause, he continued, "On the other hand, I'm also thinking about the possibility of opening up the underground world market. The underground world's environment is harsh, and the dwarves are thirsty for food, while we need their specialties, such as ores and so on. If we need each other, it's possible to trade."
Tang En, who came from Earth, was very sure of one thing. Trade was an important means of communication. As long as there was trade, they could seek common ground while reserving their differences and slowly integrate with each other.
"I see."
Abedon sipped the hot tea. After a moment of silence, he said, "Sir Lord, I have a presumptuous request."
"Please go ahead."
"I hope you can help me collect some Mana Dispelling Stones when you go to the Underground World." Abel was a rough man, so he didn't need to be pretentious. "I hope you can help me collect some Mana Dispelling Stones when you go to the Underground World."
"…"
Tang En's hand trembled. He asked faintly, "Is 125 pieces enough?"
Abedon nodded. "Yes. In fact, 33 pieces is enough. It's not easy to get those things."
Magic Dispelling Stones were a precious specialty of the underground world. Near the Magic Dispelling Stones, there would be a vacuum of magic. The purer and bigger the Magic Dispelling Stone, the stronger the effect. It was usually used to produce anti-magic equipment, especially anti-magic weapons and anti-magic shields. The powder of the Magic Dispelling Stone was also needed for enchantment and anti-magic enchantment.
Currently, there were very few Magic Dispelling Stones circulating in the Prandal market. This kind of ore was produced underground. Currently, a small amount of it was excavated from some very old and large magical metal mines. It was an associated mineral of magical metals.
A small amount of Magic Dispelling Stone powder that could be used to enchant an anti-magic effect was worth 1,000 gold coins. It was also because the material was so expensive that the beginner anti-magic mageweath could be sold for 2,000 gold coins.
However …
"Uncle Abedon, can you tell me why you need the Magic Dispelling Stones?"
Tang En was very curious about what Abedon wanted to do.
Abedon shook his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, My Lord. This involves some things that are inconvenient to talk about."
"My Lord, please don't ask this question anymore."
Even Clairat suddenly spoke up to stop Tang En from asking any more questions. "This will make things difficult for us."
Tang En thought for a while and nodded. "Then I won't ask … Is Magic Dispelling Stone powder okay?"
Tang En did not have a complete Magic Dispelling Stone, but Magic Dispelling Stone powder was a necessary material for an Enchanter. Back then, many players would also carry some with them. They only needed to pay for the enchanting process.
"No, you must have a complete Magic Dispelling Stone."
Abedon sighed. "Believe me, My Lord. Although I can't say this, it's very important, whether it's for you, for me, or even for everyone …"
"I understand. You've said enough."
Tang En, who was familiar with the process of various single-player online games, could roughly guess what Abedon meant. Obviously, he was guarding a secret, and now, there was a problem with this secret. He needed something to solve this problem, such as a Magic Dispelling Stone …
Tang En's intuition told him that if he did not complete this quest, there would be big trouble. According to the usual plot rhythm, this was equivalent to the release of a new version of the server. New maps were released, and new quests were unlocked. The quests that appeared with the release of the new version were obviously relatively important main quests.
Of course, this was a real world, so there was no such thing as nonsense. However, after grasping the method of summarizing and organizing information, he could roughly deduce these things.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Abedon let out a long sigh of relief. Then, he wanted to talk about something relaxing. "Seeing how Elijah sticks to you so much, I'm envious. I've never been treated like this before."
Tang En subconsciously said, "Didn't Elsa stick to you when she was young? Don't they all say that daughters stick to their fathers? "
"Elsa … Haha …"
Seeing Abedon's face full of regret and Elsa's uneasiness and awkwardness, Tang En suddenly came back to his senses. He looked at Abedon sympathetically. Bro, it's not easy for you either …
He had long heard that Elsa had monstrous strength since she was young. Now that he saw Abedon's reaction, it seemed that the rumors were true …
But then again …
"Aunt Clairat, since you're a magician, that means you already knew that I was teaching Elijah magic, right?"
Tang En smiled bitterly and said, "You're really calm."
"What!?"
Unexpectedly, Clairat was shocked. "You taught Elijah magic!?"
"Yes …"
Tang En said matter-of-factly, "Elijah is so talented … Don't tell me you didn't notice."
