In the cold hall, Abedon could not help but rub his arms. "I really don't want to stay in this damned place for a moment longer."
"I'll take the left, you take the right."
Azorkamanda took out half of the Mana Dissolving Stone and left the other half to Abedon. Then, he came to a huge stone pillar and pressed a rune on it lightly. A gap opened in the stone pillar. He took out the Mana Dissolving Stone that had almost lost its effect and replaced it with a new one. Then, the gap quickly closed.
On the other side, Abedon was also quickly replacing the Mana Dissolving Stone.
After replacing the Mana Dissolving Stone, the two met in the middle of the hall. If one looked down from above, they would find that the two of them were standing at the core of a huge magic array. The magic array's energy was abnormally dim.
The two of them looked at each other and nodded slightly. Then …
"Let me do it this time."
Azorkamanda stretched out his right hand, and Abedon slashed it fiercely with his sword!
The right hand was cut off at the wrist, and blood gushed out!
The right hand that flew out quickly returned to the claws of the Megalosaurus and landed in the center of the magic array. In the blink of an eye, it was devoured by the magic array's power.
The gushing dragon blood was absorbed by the magic array, and the dim magic array suddenly became bright and stable again. The cold and crazy aura that leaked out of the stone door suddenly weakened a lot.
After letting out the blood for a while, Azorkamanda took a deep breath and his face flushed red. A white and clean hand suddenly grew out of his broken right wrist. He moved his newly grown right hand and asked, "How long do you think it can last this time?"
"It's not optimistic. The movements have been getting louder and louder recently. I'm afraid the seal has reached its limit."
Abedon sighed. "Maybe, we need Dragon Island's help here."
Dragon Island, also known as the heart of the Megalosaurus, was a floating island floating in the sea. It was the home of Dragons and forbidden to mortals.
"There are some small problems on Dragon Island too. I don't think they can get away for a while."
Azorkamanda curled her lips and said, "Anyway, it's quiet here now. Don't worry too much about it. When you're free, go back to Ellington and enjoy life."
Abedon sighed. "You sure have a big heart. How can I just leave such a dangerous mission? Besides, I don't have anything to do in Ellington. I'll just stay here and keep watch."
"Don't you think your new lord is very charming? You should interact with him more. "
"Charm?"
Abedon recalled the look in Elsa's eyes when she looked at Tang En. He nodded and said, "He's indeed very charming."
"Right? I knew it wasn't my imagination."
Azhorkamanda laughed heartily. After the two of them checked the magic circle again, they went up the stairs on the stone pillars and left the crypt.
Not long after they left, the stone door of the crypt suddenly cracked open with a "Kacheng" sound, and a hair-thin crack appeared on it ….
Ellington.
After seeing off Abedon, Tang En went directly to the Magic Engineering Research Institute. The more projects he had on hand, the more he felt the importance of talents.
There were too few available research talents, especially those who had mastered magic. The human mages were all concentrated in the City of Silver. Since the wild mages were most likely to have inherited their knowledge from the necromancers who were wanted, they were very cautious and treacherous. It was very difficult to recruit them.
Tang En could only put his attention on the elves who were long-lived and very curious about knowledge.
The twenty elven scholars who were sent by Izali to train as teachers were currently arranged by Tang En to the Magic Engineering Research Institute to help him with the research work for the time being. He planned to hire more elven employees later.
Elven scholars who were good at magic, dwarf engineers who were good at science and technology, and dwarf craftsmen who were good at forging — this was a golden combination.
Any of Tang En's ideas could be perfectly realized. They could also disassemble the samples made by Tang En and reverse-engineer the production method using Prandal's existing technology. If the technology could not be realized, Tang En would provide the solution again.
In this way, they would constantly interact with each other and promote each other, and the level of their skills would rapidly improve.
It was worth mentioning that the Magical Engineering Research Institute, which was originally Edgar's blacksmith shop, had been completely refurbished. The gnomes and dwarves had joined forces, and with the help of the elemental creatures, it only took them a short day to change the entire place from top to bottom.
As soon as he walked into the courtyard of the new research institute, Tang En heard Brian bragging.
"… At that time, when the claws of the defiler were only one meter away from my beard … Ah, no, it was the last centimeter, I felt the power of Gaia flowing in my body!"
Brian gulped down a mouthful of beer and said, "At that time, I jumped and swung my warhammer. I didn't even use any combat skills and directly smashed the defiler's head into meat paste!"
"Stop bragging, okay …"
Tang En sighed. "You call that jumping? You were thrown out like a cannonball by Elsa. "
"Brother, will you die if you don't expose me?"
Brian turned around very unhappily. The few apprentices who were listening with great interest hurriedly stood up and saluted. "My Lord!"
Tang En nodded in acknowledgment, and then greeted the few elven scholars who were quietly reading the manuals. "Everyone, how are you feeling these days?"
"Pretty good. We've learned a lot of new knowledge, especially the measurements you made. They're clear and easy to understand. We've already decided to record them and send them back to the Emerald Forest."
A blonde elven scholar with a big braid was the leader of these elves. Her name was Pamela Greenvine. She looked more like a literary girl than Danterian. She was more than a thousand years old this year, more than two hundred years older than Aiguin, but she looked about the same age as Princess Aurelia … No, she didn't mean the same age as Princess Aurelia.
"As long as you're satisfied."
Tang En sighed in relief. He was afraid that these elven scholars would not be interested, so he took out the magic pistol.
"Brother, what is this?"
Brian could recognize the material, but he could not see its function.
Nokia noticed the trigger and his eyes lit up. He exclaimed, "A new gnomish flintlock? You've researched it faster than the leader. This is incredible! "
"It's not a flintlock. It's more like a magic flintlock … I call it a magic pistol."
Tang En aimed at the abandoned armour in the corner of the yard and casually fired a shot. The roaring fireball shattered the armour to pieces.
"This, this is — —"
Brian's eyes popped out, "Fireball Spell!?"
"That's right, this magic pistol can fire pre-set spells."
Tang En waved the magic energy pistol and fired a string of fireballs into the sky. "Also, with the magic capacity of the magic crystal, it can be fired continuously. If it's a Fireball spell, a poor quality magic crystal can fire about 20 shots."
"Continuous Spell Casting!"
This time even Nokia's eyes popped out. Because everyone knew, gnomes and goblins could not awaken their innate talents to cultivate. Although they were filled with desire for magic, they could only stare at it.
But Tang En's magic pistol could fire continuous spells!
"Can I try it?"
Brian and Nokia spoke at the same time before looking at each other, "I said it first!"
"Let me! I've known big brother for a long time, we have a good relationship! "
"I'll go first! I am the chief assistant of great craftsman Clotho! Only I can give an accurate evaluation of this new weapon in the entire research facility! "
"What can you evaluate if you don't even understand magic!"
"How do you know when I don't!? You stone head! "
"You shortie!"
Pamela curiously looked at the magic pistol. She didn't feel any magic fluctuations coming from Tang En, "Can I try it?"
"Please."
Tang En ignored Brian and Nokia as he handed the magic pistol to Pamela with a smile. Then he taught her how to use it.
"I'll make a target for you."
Tang En waved his hand, and a few stone pillars rose up in the courtyard. Soon, they took on the appearance of humanoid creatures.
Pamela raised the magic pistol and quickly pulled the trigger to fire a Fireball Spell. With a large "peng, peng, peng" sound, the stone pillars were all shattered by the Fireball Spell.
Nokia who was arguing with Brian's eyes popped out, "You've just learned how to shoot? No recoil? What about aiming? "
"There's basically no recoil at all," Pamela said. "Aiming is aided by detection, so it's very convenient … This will be a very powerful weapon."
Pamela then looked at Tang En. "If all humans have this weapon, no one in Prandal will be able to stop you. It's very dangerous."
"I know, so I'm already prepared. This weapon won't be popularized."
Tang En silently said to himself, At least not now.
"I hope so."
Pamela handed the magic pistol to Nokia, who immediately laughed and pulled the trigger at the broken stone pillar.
Boom!
"Hahahaha — I'm the first dwarf in Prandal to use magic!"
Nokia was very excited and completely lost the calmness of a researcher.
"Damn it!"
Brian's face was full of envy. After Nokia tried a few more spells, he finally got his hands on the gun and personally experienced how it felt to use magic.
Nokia and Brian immediately fell in love with this new weapon.
"Big brother!"
Brian directly put the magic pistol in his pocket. "Give this treasure to me! Tell me what you want! I'll give you anything in the Dwarf Kingdom! "
This guy was openly betraying his own country to satisfy his own selfish desires!
"You bastard! Don't try to take such a precious sample for yourself! "
Nokia panicked. "Hurry up and take it out! I still want to disassemble it for research! "
"You actually want to disassemble such a precious thing!?"
"Nonsense! The more precious something is, the more it's worth disassembling! What do you know! "
Twain slapped his forehead and let out a long sigh. "I gave it to you so that you could study it and reverse engineer it, and then … Pamela, take note of the magic chips on it and see if you can accurately replicate them and mass produce them. If there are any problems, you can come and find me."
"Magic chip? Okay, I understand. "
Tang En added, "This magic pistol project is confidential. Don't leak it, understand?"
Brian and the others agreed loudly and rushed into the research lab impatiently.
They were obviously anxious to make a copy.
