A few days later, Fiona began to sort out the legends of the Dwarves and Dark Elves, trying to analyze useful information so that Ellington would have an advantageous position during the negotiations.
At the same time, as the canned goods processing factory was on the right track, Ellington's production and construction resumed its normal pace. An endless stream of canned goods came off the production line and were transported to the Jade Corolla canned goods processing factory. After being processed into canned goods, they were transported back and stored in a huge warehouse.
As Ellington developed faster and faster, it gradually formed a complete transportation process and industrial chain. More and more people were amazed by the new Ellington and began to adapt to the new Ellington's pace of life.
But fortunately, this was a world full of miracles — a world created by God. Humans were already used to all kinds of strange things. The powerful Legendary-mage Jean could even build an unimaginable giant city overnight. So, it wasn't strange for anything to happen here.
Moreover, they had witnessed the construction with their own eyes, so it was easier for them to accept it.
At the same time, Tang En was also working on the mass production of the Return Crystals — Tang En still wanted to call it Hearthstone.
But because the production of the Homeward Crystal required a certain level of magical skill, and the worst thing was that the residents of Ellington did not have the corresponding conditions, so in the end, Tang En once again bowed his head to Izaly. After humiliating himself by selling his body and dignity, he received Izaly's promise.
Izari agreed to find a group of meticulous Elven girls who were good at magic for Tang En to help him make the Return Crystals.
After the initial training, the first batch of 500 Return Crystals had been produced. Tang En carefully inspected them and sadly found that not only were the runes on the Return Crystals more perfect than his, but the standard size magic crystals were also carefully carved by them. The prismatic magic crystals became very exquisite and looked like works of art.
What made Tang En's balls hurt the most was that these Return Crystals had their own style added to them, so they looked very varied and didn't look like they were produced on an assembly line at all. Moreover, when they were doing the second round of artistic processing, it didn't affect the production efficiency at all — it had to be said again, the use of acceleration spells in production was too immoral!
After leaving 100 Return Crystals for Izari as a reward, Tang En brought the remaining 400 Return Crystals back to Ellington.
Elsa had already gathered the first and second guards. The girl stood in front of everyone. Although she was like Yao Riyue and Guo Xiaosi compared to Vanilla, Tang En was very sure that Elsa could beat the Gold-tier Vanilla with one punch.
Ayesha stood up straight and said loudly: "My Lord, everyone has gathered! No one is absent! "
Tang En nodded his head in satisfaction. After going through strict training, the two hundred-man teams now had the appearance of elites. Their eyes were bright and spirited, and their previous sickly appearance had also disappeared. Now, all the muscles in their bodies were taut and filled with explosive power.
More importantly, they had a sense of discipline. Unlike other Apocalyptic Ones who had awakened their innate gifts, their current opportunities were bestowed by Tang En, so they were grateful to Tang En and accepted the training. They weren't undisciplined adventurers, nor were they mercenaries. They were warriors.
Apocalyptic Warriors.
What was the biggest difference between warriors, adventurers and mercenaries?
It was discipline, vigor, and courage.
Neat attire and orderly movements. Although it wouldn't increase their combat power by much, it would increase their discipline. This kind of discipline would eventually condense a powerful aura that could invisibly weaken the enemy's combat power.
Although their current strength was generally only at the Bronze level, it didn't make sense for natives to increase their levels. The real geniuses weren't like the players in the game back on Earth who leveled up one level at a time. They mainly played around with "epiphanies".
That's right. It was very likely that they experienced some kind of danger during a battle and suddenly had a breakthrough. Or, they might learn some kind of combat skill and suddenly have an epiphany in the next moment. Jumping from Bronze Rank Rank-5 to Dark Iron Rank Rank-5 in an instant wasn't a big deal.
Of course, those who had such an opportunity were generally known as geniuses who were favored by God. Most of the Apocalyptic Ones — about 90% — didn't have such luck, so they could only advance step by step.
Natives who couldn't achieve "epiphanies" would at most stop at the Gold level in their lifetime. This was also why Tang En valued Elsa so much. Her innate gift was a cheat that could break through the limits of her level.
Now, under Tang En's command, Depp and the others dared to charge forward even if they could kill their Gold-level enemies.
This was a warrior.
Compared to them, the guards who had been slowly expanding over the past few days were like stragglers and weren't worth mentioning at all.
"Very good. You didn't let me down."
Tang En stepped forward and said with satisfaction, "Now, think about how you were when we first met. Look down at yourself and you'll understand how much you've changed."
Depp's face was full of pride and Ultraman, who was next to him, was a little embarrassed. After all, they were surrendered soldiers at that time.
"I'm sure you've heard that the Haier 'Zorm mine has collapsed and the entrance to the underground world has appeared. Now, the whole world knows about this. Countless adventurers, mercenaries, and some mixed forces are flocking to Haier' Zorm, wanting to enter the underground world to make a fortune."
At this point, Tang En paused and glanced at the guards below. Seeing that their expressions didn't change, he was satisfied and continued, "Of course, we can't miss this opportunity. Of course, our goal isn't to try our luck. Instead, we're going to open up the market of the dwarves and dark elves. They need food, and we need their ores and herbs.
"However, we all know one thing. Only when both sides have equal strength can we have the right to negotiate. And you are the representatives of Ellington. Whether we can intimidate them and open up the market will depend on your performance."
Tang En flattered them before continuing, "The underground world is very dangerous. It's like a foreign world to us. Any major monster there can cause fatal harm to us. So, for this operation, everyone must show the courage to sacrifice themselves. Are you afraid?"
"No!"
They shouted in unison. Danny, who was in the front row with a longbow on his back, blushed and shouted, "I swear that I'll respect you as my king in this life. I'll use my blood to seal the borders for you!"
Danny's words were also what the others were thinking. If it weren't for Tang En, they wouldn't have been able to eat their fill under Hogg's rule, let alone awakening their talents.
"Very good. This is the kind of courage I need."
Tang En nodded and changed the topic. He smiled and said, "But you are all my most important right-hand men. I'm not willing to sacrifice you, so … I've researched this for you."
Tang En lifted the cloth at the side and revealed the shiny and colorful Return Crystals in the frame. He said, "This is called the Return Crystal. Now, team leader, come up to take it and distribute it."
After the Return Crystals were distributed to everyone, Tang En began to explain how to use them. At the same time, he personally used one to demonstrate. Of course, when they saw such a powerful magic tool in their hands, they were stunned.
Although they didn't have much experience, after the recent development, the number of merchants and bards who came and went had increased. The news that spread had made them mature a lot. So, they now knew some of the things that were common in Ellington, and how rare they were in the outside world.
For example, the Return Crystals that were distributed today — they were obviously Teleportation Scrolls!
But it was more convenient to use than Teleportation Scrolls, and the requirements were lower. It didn't even require magic to activate!
The lower the requirements, the higher the value. Teleportation Scrolls were worth about ten thousand gold coins. In other words, the Return Crystals were worth more than ten thousand gold coins!
In other words, the Lord just gave them a magic tool worth more than two million gold coins without blinking an eye!
Uncle Depp and the others were so excited that they couldn't stop shaking. They held the Return Crystals in their hands, afraid that they would dirty them and break them …
Vanilla's eyes were wide open, and her face was filled with disbelief.
She didn't know about Ellington's situation. She thought that the magic civilization in the human countries had already developed to this extent …
Danny and the others guessed that the value was about the same, but the value and the price were two different things.
What was even more shocking was the cost of the Return Crystals. Other than the cost of the standard Magic Crystals, there was also the cost of the elves' labor. But the elven girls didn't need gold coins. Their only hope was … … to have Tang En help them rush for more chapters.
That's right, urging Danterian and Clover to update was the only additional cost for Tang En.
Tang En couldn't help sighing when he thought of this. They were born from the same roots, there was no need to be so anxious. If they didn't rush for more chapters, they could still be friends …
In the entire Prandal, perhaps only Tang En had the right to use the elves' labor force for free. It was also because of the elven girls' help that Tang En was more confident in changing the world.
Fiona stepped forward and said in a very serious voice, "In the future, the Return Crystals will be the standard equipment for the warriors of Ellington. After using them, bring the blank crystals to the logistics department to register the reason for using them and receive a replacement."
She then said in a stern voice, "But before the Lord gives permission, the Return Crystals are a strategic resource of Ellington. No one is allowed to sell them privately. If anyone is found to have done so, they will be executed! Do you understand?! "
There were some things that had to be said even though they knew.
"Understood!"
The loud voice almost knocked Fiona to the ground. Her face was pale, and she instinctively hid behind Tang En and hugged his arm.
Elsa's gaze fell on Tang En's arm, but she quickly turned her face away.
Then, the eyes of the people below the stage became a bit playful.
