Jean needed the astral crystal very much.
"With this astral cube crystal, I believe that I will be able to restore the true teleportation array technology!"
Gene put away the astral cube crystal with a flushed face. He now felt that this trip was simply too worth it.
Teleportation technology?
Tang En smiled strangely. No wonder he wanted the astral crystal so much.
This crystal born in the astral was a very stable spatial material. It was the best material to make spatial equipment, but more importantly, it was also the best core material for teleportation.
Jean had been trying to restore the teleportation technology, but the astral crystal was too rare. Even in the entire City of Silver, there was only one the size of a baby's fist. Even if Jean had all kinds of ideas, he had to use it sparingly.
And the piece that Tang En took out was not only cut to the standard, it was also as big as an adult's fist, and its purity was also abnormally high. It could be said to be the best astral crystal, so it was no wonder that Gene was so excited.
Materials from the Astral World were extremely rare in Prandal, but for true gods like Nisclare, these materials that were born in the Astral World were the most common. Therefore, Twain had a lot of them in his inventory. To put it exaggeratedly, it was too much to build a villa.
Tang En's eyes turned, and he suddenly thought of something else. He suddenly smiled and took out another astral crystal and put it on the table.
Jean's eyes widened. "Tang En?"
"Do you want it?"
"Yes."
"Give me something in exchange."
"What thing?"
Jean scratched his head anxiously. He couldn't think of anything else he could use to exchange for the astral crystal. This thing was basically a priceless treasure. It couldn't be measured in gold coins.
Tang En smiled and said faintly, "A floating stone."
Floating stones were not rare. There must be some floating stones on the floating islands. But as mentioned before, because the City of Silver monopolized the magicians, the ones who could mine the stones were also in the City of Silver. Therefore, floating stones were one of the City of Silver's specialties.
Tang En could of course mine it himself, but he didn't have the time to do so. This wasn't a game. If he could buy something, he would buy it.
"Floating stone? What do you want it for? "
Zeon was at a loss. Levitating Stones were indeed useful. Levitating Stones or extracted Levitating Stone dust could be added to other things to reduce weight and increase carrying capacity, but it was not very useful for them who had spatial equipment. At most, it was useful for merchants, but merchants could not afford to use it.
Moreover, Floating Stones were very common. They could be found in the Floating Islands in the sky. He could not understand why Twain needed Floating Stones.
"Of course it's useful."
Tang En smiled and threw the astral square crystal. "The City of Silver promises to supply Ellington with enough floating stones, and this astral square crystal is yours. How about this deal?"
"Enough?"
Gene smiled bitterly. "What do you mean by 'enough'? The price of the astral square crystal is impossible to estimate. The price of floating stones is very cheap. If you convert, even if you pile up Ellington, you can't exchange it for the astral square crystal. "
"Then pile it up."
Tang En was still smiling. "Just tell me if you want to do this business or not."
"Of course! Why not? "
Jean gritted his teeth and agreed. Anyway, he wasn't the one digging for the floating stones. As long as he issued a mission in the City of Silver and used the qualification to study in the Star-Moon Tower or points as a reward, there would be a lot of magicians willing to dig for the floating stones.
"Very good, deal."
Tang En threw the astral square crystal to Jean.
Jean put away the astral square crystal, but still couldn't hold back his curiosity. "Can you tell me what you want to do with those floating stones?"
Tang En smiled. "Make a car."
In Tang En's view, everything else in this world was very ordinary, whether it was magic cores or magic metals. In a civilization dominated by magic, these things were very normal. Their uses had been discovered, but the people here neglected a very precious treasure.
That was the Floating Stones that were all over the Floating Island.
In Tang En's view, the floating stones were a huge treasure that Prandal had not yet discovered!
He still couldn't understand what the floating stones were and why they had anti-gravity properties, but this didn't affect his use of the floating stones.
Without the floating stones, if he wanted to design a flying car, he would have to find a way to mass produce anti-gravity magic arrays. But now the research and development power of the Magic Engineering Research Institute was too weak, and it could be expected that he would encounter great difficulties. And even if it was realized, the cost would be quite high. At least, the magic metal used as the substrate was indispensable.
But with the floating stones, this technical problem could be easily solved.
As long as the motorcycle's tires were removed and replaced with floating stones, the motorcycle's weight was reduced, and the bottom and sides of the jet holes were added, the concept of a flying motorcycle could be realized.
Without the restriction of tires, the strategic significance of an all-terrain single-person riding tool could be imagined.
In addition, even a flying car could be completely realized.
These ideas were all based on the floating stones.
"Car? Carriage? "
Jean was stunned for a moment and suddenly realized. "Oh, someone has done this before. It's quite interesting and fast. It's a good idea."
Tang En didn't explain too much. When the flying motorcycle was born, he would understand how different this "car" was from the one he had in mind.
In addition, there was one more thing.
The technology of teleportation arrays.
After considering it in his mind for a moment, Tang En finally gave up.
Jean could be trusted. He was a great and selfless hero, but it was precisely because he was too great and selfless that Tang En had scruples.
The technology of teleportation arrays was now in his hands. Tang En could still guarantee that the teleportation arrays would not be abused, but if he really taught it to Jean, Tang En could not guarantee that Jean would not immediately publicize this technology or spread magic arrays all over the world.
If that really happened, what would the consequences be in the current situation?
It was foreseeable that there would be a lot of spies between countries, and there would even be a large number of assassinations targeting the leaders of other countries. The situation would become even more chaotic, and those cultists and ambitious people hiding in the dark would take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters and make the water even more muddy.
This would be very detrimental to Tang En's development.
So in the end, Tang En decided to keep it a secret from Jean for the time being. After the situation stabilized in the future, he would slowly release the technology in his hands.
"I'll go back first and give out a mission. Let the kids dig up the floating stones."
After obtaining the two Astral Crystals, Zeon couldn't wait to go back and conduct his experiments. He found an excuse and slipped away. However, he had already left the magic books behind, so it wouldn't affect the school's work.
Tang En found Pamela and Olina and asked them to take a look at the second floor of the library. Suddenly seeing such a huge source of magic power, even the gentle Pamela was shocked.
"This will be the area where students learn magic in the future. Unauthorized people are forbidden to enter. I've already set up a magic array around the source of magic power. They can't get close. You can rest assured."
Then Tang En pointed at the magic books on the shelves and said, "These are all the magic books that Jean brought. They have all the learning methods from beginner to gold level. They also include spells from level 0 to level 4. They are enough for our school now. You need to pay attention to prevent the students from learning magic that they can't master."
"So many?"
Olina was shocked. "Jean … the legendary hero Jean? Why would he bring these magic books here? "
Of course, Olina knew that Jean was neutral. However, what he was doing now violated this principle.
Tang En thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Probably because he likes to see a prey."
Elijah's talent was enough for someone to build a magic school just for her. It was not strange that Jean had such an attitude.
Olina was surprised, but also very surprised. With these magic books, Ellington School could become the second City of Silver, the second magic heaven!
She could already foresee that Ellington's rise would be unstoppable.
After leaving Olina and Pamela to register and organize the magic books, Tang En left Ellington School.
As soon as he walked out of the school gate, he ran into Elsa who was running toward him in a hurry.
"My Lord!"
Seeing Tang En, Elsa shouted in surprise. "I was just looking for you!"
Tang En smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The Phoenix Mercenary Group is here. Their leader, Khal, is looking for you."
Elsa stuck out her tongue. "Although we know each other, I stopped them outside because of your order. They're waiting for you now."
"The Phoenix Mercenary Group? They're back from the underground world? "
Tang En was surprised. He followed Elsa out of the city and immediately saw Khal, who was chatting with Depp and the others. There were also Axe and Pat, who were chatting with Vanilla.
"Lord Tang En."
Seeing Tang En, Khal greeted him with a smile.
Tang En shook hands with him and looked at him in confusion. "Why are you here?"
Khal smiled and said, "Have you forgotten that we're mercenaries? Of course, we go wherever there's business. "
"Business?"
Tang En was even more confused. "What business?"
Khal laughed and said, "I heard that Ellington became independent and started a war with the new king, Girard. So, I thought … you must need the power of Phoenix. As long as the price is right, we'll fight for you."
Tang En was enlightened. Amused, he said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll lose? If that happens, even you will be implicated. "
Khal blinked with a strange expression. "After the battle in the underground world, I don't think you'll lose."
