Chapter 913
Thousands of kilometers away, an airship stopped in the void. A mage stood in front of the window, observing with a star-gazing mirror with full attention. Until this moment, he suddenly shouted:
"Moved, moved. Moving the bridgehead so quickly, they are indeed people from the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce. Quick, notify Lord Jifa."
A follower behind went to send a message, but another asked curiously: "Fast? The teleportation array there has been closed for six hours. Starting to move after so long, it should be because they are not familiar with it, right? Isn't it just piling up chaotic stones?"
The mage said: "What do you know? Do you think we haven't started the energy tower? If it were really that easy, how could we take it out for trading? We would have used it ourselves long ago. That is a mobile plane. We also tried it, but couldn't understand how to operate it at all. Moving a little bit, the entire plane would tilt forward, as if there was an invisible abyss in the void sucking it over, which scared us to death."
Negris probably couldn't think that what it felt was very simple, the Feilie Empire hadn't mastered it, and what space sliding was, they hadn't even heard of it.
Negris was also a God of Knowledge in name. It wouldn't create new knowledge, but it could remember clearly after others said it once. As for the control of the energy tower, for it who had played with the World Transit Station, the Home of the Deceased, and the Starburst Array, it was even more of a piece of cake.
Admittedly, with enough time, plus a large amount of chaotic stones for the people of the Feilie Empire to grope slowly, they could also grope out the method of use, but now there were no enough chaotic stones.
Ang's method of first activating chaotic stones with God Light Grip and then injecting them into the energy tower was clearly the most efficient one. If piling chaotic stones on it according to the inscription, starting it once would probably take tens of thousands of chaotic stones.
Rather than keeping a mobile plane that couldn't be used for a while, it was better to trade it to the other party as a bargaining chip, first solving the production of chaotic stones.
A mobile plane is a way to show strength. Very quickly, the other party sent a message. Silver Coin took out a scroll, spread it out, and saw a line of text appearing on it: "Please connect to this teleportation array, coordinate XXXXX."
Once the plane moves, the teleportation array can't be connected, because the coordinates have changed. It requires the teleportation array here to first connect to the teleportation array with fixed coordinates on the opposite side before teleportation can be carried out.
Negris asked suspiciously: "Blood Source Scroll? Such an ancient way of communication? Then they must be very, very far from here. They trust us so much? Aren't they afraid we'll drive the plane away?"
Silver Coin said: "How could it be? There must be airships guarding outside the void. If we don't reply to the message and want to move the plane away directly, the airships will land. Using the Blood Source Scroll is intentional, wanting to tell us that they are very far from here, letting us rest assured, just like taking off the outer coat before negotiation. Believe it or not, after I reply, they will have a bunch of people teleporting over."
"Uh, then wouldn't they be able to catch us at any time?" Negris asked.
Silver Coin nodded: "Indeed they can, but what's the point?"
While speaking, Silver Coin took out several teleportation scrolls, stuffing one to each person. When stuffing to Negris, he found it had no hands, so he just tied it to its chest, and it would just bite it open when the time came.
"We are now just subordinates of the Shenguang Duke, just here for trading. Even if we are all caught, it will only offend the Shenguang Duke, establishing an enemy for ourselves. What's the point?"
"What's more, they might not be able to catch us. If they send airships to air-drop, I will immediately destroy the energy tower and then teleport away using the scroll. Naji has already made preparations for reception in a secret place."
"And I am willing to agree to use this as a trading location because it is too far from the main plane. They have no way to surround the entire void. In this way, besides obtaining a batch of chaotic trees, they get nothing. The plane's mobility is destroyed, and they also establish an enemy like the Shenguang Duke, plus ten billion anonymous magic crystal vouchers."
Speaking of magic crystal vouchers, Negris suddenly remembered: "What about the magic crystal vouchers?"
"Will be sent immediately. The next steps are: I connect to the teleportation array, they teleport over, bring the magic crystal vouchers, I count them, tell them the location of the farm, they send people to confirm, and then the transaction is completed. They withdraw, or start fighting," Silver Coin said.
Negris felt a headache listening: "So troublesome. It was better before. Where was there a need to be so cautious, guarding against this and that."
Negris hadn't been so cautious for many years. Before, Ang covered it, and it only needed to move its mouth. Anyway, it couldn't beat anyone.
Unexpectedly, now just trading something had such complex processes and steps. Really troublesome.
However, although it was a bit troublesome, the process went very smoothly. After Silver Coin connected to the coordinates given by the other party, a team of mages teleported over, carrying twelve boxes, which were full of various anonymous magic crystal vouchers.
There were those issued by the Mercenary Guild, those of the Business Alliance, those of the Gnome Guild, the Mage Guild, and even a stack of the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce.
After counting, there was indeed ten billion in full amount.
Accepting the magic crystal vouchers, Silver Coin informed the other party of the location of the chaotic stone farm, and then waited for the other party to verify. The wrench and the two female liches on the farm had long been moved away. Now there was no one on the chaotic stone farm.
Silver Coin and a team of mages stared at each other for several hours. The Feilie Empire finally confirmed that the chaotic stone farm was intact and notified the mages here. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, shook hands in a friendly manner, and then they teleported away, so smoothly that the back-up plan Ang arranged wasn't used at all.
Ang had sprinkled many spores nearby. When these mages stepped out of the teleportation array, they stepped on them. If they made trouble, he would let mushrooms grow on their feet!
The hardest trump card was of course the Monarch and Ang. They hid far away, monitoring the situation around. Ghost patrollers had already flown into the void, ensuring no airships were approaching.
However, it was very smooth. The Feilie Empire seemed to be trading sincerely. The plane had drifted very far, and no airship of the other party appeared. The ghost patrollers left in place also found nothing.
After drifting for a few days, it was basically certain to be safe, because they had already arrived at the edge of the Boundless Great Cave. Further ahead was the void with nothing. Flying along the edge of the Boundless Great Cave for a year and a few months, they would arrive at the territory of the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce.
The Shenguang Chamber of Commerce spent resources to build a bridgehead, but was driven back because it was too far. Next time they come, the scale of the Shenguang Chamber of Commerce's team will definitely be larger.
But that's all for the future. Ang decided not to leave and stopped here. This is the edge of the Boundless Great Cave, the closest place for Little Ghost to come over, just right to intercept it in advance, to avoid it hitting someone else's encirclement.
Before Little Ghost arrives, of course, it's planting things. When the transaction was just completed, Ang couldn't wait to open up farmland and then started planting things.
"There is no sunlight here, what can you plant that can live?" The Monarch just went to pour chaotic power into the energy tower, came back, saw Ang digging a hole, and couldn't help but ask.
Ang took out a dead fruit to show. Dead fruit trees can grow in tombs, not needing sunlight.
It's just that this dead fruit tree has another kind of plant grafted on the top.
"Eh, chaotic tree bud, did you graft it successfully?" Negris asked with joy.
Ang nodded. Dead fruit trees don't need sunlight and can be planted in many places. Chaotic trees can bear chaotic stones. If the two can be combined, then in the deep underground, Ang can also grow a large number of chaotic stones.
"You really grafted it successfully, really amazing. Then you don't need sunlight to plant chaotic trees in the future? Wouldn't it be possible to plant them anywhere?" Negris said excitedly.
Just when Negris was circling around the dead chaotic tree, Silver Coin walked in, his expression a bit strange, saying: "My lord, Naji's ancestor grandmother wants to see you. She said she must thank you personally for bringing her clan into the storm."
No wonder Silver Coin's expression was so strange. Listen, does this sound like thanks? Wouldn't it be coming to ask for guilt?
