The outer ring, the residence of the Byron family.
In a small secret room away from the banquet hall, the goblin Kirby is operating something with a face full of fanaticism.
In front of him, a simple mana machine propped up a white light screen, and Duke Gazlowe, who claimed to be the greatest chief inventor, engineer and plane merchant of the Goblin Empire, was carrying a high-multiplier unit. Glasses, spitting and roaring.
"No, never..." Gazlowe waved his green arm covered with thick hair: "Less than 17 magic crystals is out of the question... I will not let you, a vampire, take advantage of me anymore... And we We have known each other for such a long time, but you have never gotten any valuable items... You... you can't be a qualified plane merchant like this, you are only worthy of being a fallen goblin who rummages through trash... "
The other party's cynicism obviously also deeply stimulated Goblin Kirby, and any words that insulted his dream of "planetary merchant" would arouse extreme anger.
"You coward who only hides behind the light screen every day. The teleporter you gave me is a piece of junk. It can only teleport items weighing no more than 500 grams, and every three or four times it will definitely happen once Teleportation error. Who knows where your broken machine randomly threw the treasures I teleported to in the multiverse? Do you also need to let me bear the losses caused by your machine?"
"Bastard, you uneducated stupid goblin, you don't even understand how terrifying energy is needed to penetrate the barriers of two different planes. You don't have an energy furnace, you don't have a reaction pool, you don't have an energy room... you lowbrow The goblins in the world have nothing, and only rely on the energy crystallization of some low-level goods to obtain a large and stable space channel? Not to mention that the goblin empire does not have such technology, even the wizard behind you may not be able to do this. !"
"Then what should I do? I always make small troubles like this, pointing to an unreliable teleporter to start trading items, who will bear the losses caused by it?"
"If you can get some wizard supplies or strange energy treasures that are useful to me, I can bear the loss of goods caused by space annihilation and space turbulence."
"Hmph, don't think that I'm easy to deceive because I don't know anything. Your machine is too unreliable, and it's not suitable for large-scale plane transactions. All transactions are almost one-off. You get the sample and the analysis is successful. After that, there will be no need for subsequent transactions. And I have put in so much effort to search for resources for you, but I can only get a little reward. I will not do such a stupid thing again!"
"Uh..." Gazlowe in the light screen pushed the clip-on glasses on his face, and once again carefully looked at the little goblin in front of him through the screen.
Unexpectedly, really unexpected, a little goblin who lived under the slavery and ravages of a terrible wizard and had no knowledge of technological civilization could figure out such a complicated truth. This couldn't help but make him look at Kirby with admiration.
"Okay, okay, little Kirby! Since we both need what each other has, let's show some sincerity. I can raise the price a bit, and you... have to show something that is really useful!" Add There was sincerity in Zlowe's wrinkled green face.
"Is my existence really valuable to you, to the goblin?" Kirby asked suspiciously.
"Of course!" Gazlowe pushed his glasses again: "You have to know that you are in the world of wizards, a large plane known as the multiverse, which is infinitely larger than the plane where our goblin empire is located. Times. I accidentally threw the teleporter into the space turbulence, and it may appear in any corner of the multiverse along with the space drift. And if you ask me to open a new passage to the wizarding world, With the strength of the goblin empire, it is impossible and impossible to do it. After all, wizards are very terrifying and aggressive creatures in legends!"
"What do you mean, we can only rely on this broken machine to trade?"
"Yes!"
"Is there anything special that needs to be paid attention to when using this teleporter?"
"First of all, if the teleporter wants to work stably, you'd better find a powerful energy source for it."
"for example?"
"Like an energy pool..."
"Do you think I, a little goblin, can access the energy pool in the wizard's tower? Next..."
"Natural places where elements gather, such as the core area of a large storm, underground volcanoes..."
"Are you sincere? Wouldn't it be death to go to the places you mentioned with my strength?"
"Or some high-level energy crystals, at least ten times stronger than the magic crystals you are using now, can make the teleporter work stably."
"A high-level energy crystal? What is that? Can you be more specific..." While muttering, Kirby rummaged through his pocket in annoyance. Later, it found it troublesome to rummage through, so it simply emptied out the contents in its pocket, allowing them to cover the entire table.
"Wait... wait..." Gazlowe's urgent voice suddenly came from the light screen: "What is that silver-white metal object?"
"Huh?" Kirby followed Gazlowe's prompt and took out a heavy metal ball from the messy pile of items.
This is a metal ball that looks like it is carved from silver, but it doesn't have the soft touch of silver when rubbed against it. The surface of the ball is uneven, and there are strange patterns and grooves everywhere. Although it can't feel any energy breath, it is an out-and-out mechanical heart.
The mechanical heart, the alchemy-activated heart created by the puppeteer for high-level golems or golems, is the core component of witchcraft puppets. It can be said that the Puppet Knight can have such a powerful combat power. In addition to the hard body piled up with countless rare resources, it is the existence of the mechanical heart that makes this cold and hard metal creature come alive.
And when that Lu Nuo puppeteer integrated the soul of a second-level knight into it, the ability of this mechanical heart developed by leaps and bounds. As long as it is given a complete metal body, it can make it alive again and become a powerful metal warrior.
Of course, such a powerful mechanical heart cannot be owned by Goblin Kirby, but a spoil captured by its owner, Greem.
After thoroughly analyzing the secrets, Greem also thought about whether to keep this mechanical heart and build an indestructible steel guard for himself, but it was a pity that he couldn't find out about the puppet talisman.
Without the puppet talisman, it means that if a giant steel guard is really built, Greem can only run around the world with an indomitable iron lump like those low-level esoteric wizards. The puppets are quite powerful in battle, but the inconvenience of carrying them is enough to sentence them to death.
This kind of thing, when Greem has his own resident or wizard tower in the future, it's good to throw it at home to guard the portal. But now... with it, it is better to bring a few more high-level golems!
Therefore, Greem, who planned to exchange it for some higher-order element crystal nuclei, threw it to Kirby casually. Anyway, Kirby also aspires to become a goblin merchant, and it is appropriate to do these welcoming and sending things.
At this moment, Kirby held the mechanical heart in his hand, and looked at the light screen suspiciously.
"Is this mechanical heart useful to you?"
"Of course it works. If I'm not mistaken, it should be a magic mechanical control core obtained by wizards using witchcraft, and it is the kind with super high intelligence. Our goblin empire uses magic energy Although the mechanical route can also create a similar mana mechanical core, it has never been able to find a way to integrate life and soul into it."
"So it can be sold for a high price?" Kirby threw the metal ball lightly with a grin on his face.
"Uh..." Gazlowe fell silent.
"Tell me, hurry up, what price are you willing to exchange for this mechanical heart. Don't use those low-quality things like rocket boots and parachutes to deceive me... and this mechanical heart is serious. Overloaded, are you sure it can be teleported through your teleporter?"
"..."
After a long silence, Gazlowe seemed to have finally figured it out, and a flattering smile appeared on his green and greasy face again.
"Dear Kirby, here I would like to introduce to you the greatest war machine of the Goblin Empire - the Magic Armor. With it, you will no longer have to be afraid of your enemies. It will become the most loyal and most powerful of your men. A powerful warrior, destroy all enemies that appear in its sight!"
"Oh? You mean that scary metal man that is as big as a hill? I'm not going to set up a construction team. If you give me this variant of a logging robot, what can I do with it? I'm afraid I can only collect what I need to build it. I need hundreds of years for metals and parts. Is this meaningful to me?" Kirby's IQ has obviously exploded today, and he is no longer the little goblin who can be deceived casually in the past, roaring angrily at the light screen.
"Don't be angry, dear Kirby, then I recommend you a super terrifying attack weapon—the magic cannon. With it, you will be invincible. It is impossible for any enemy to resist its terrifying blow!"
"No, no, no... I'm a peace-loving goblin businessman. You should sell those things you kill and kill to others! I just need some high-level elemental crystal nuclei, which are things that the master personally ordered to collect, and The more quantity the better…”
"Okay, okay, the element crystal nucleus is the element crystal nucleus, what price do you plan to trade at?"
"The manufacturing method of the magic mech and the finished fel cannon, plus a hundred elemental nuclei above the second level!"
"Fart!" Gazlowe immediately jumped three feet high: "Why don't you grab it? Your mechanical heart is not worth the price at all!"
"Then how much can you pay?"
Gazlowe immediately stretched out three fingers, but after hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and changed to four.
"4 second-order element crystal nuclei, only so much can be exchanged!"
"You fart..." This time it was Kirby's turn to jump three feet high: "You are a robbery... You are a ransack of red aloe... You are the most greedy, shameless, and meanest thing I have ever seen Goblins... such a price is a robbery... "
The two goblins from the same race obviously have the stinginess and wretchedness that permeate their bones, but they also have the greed and shamelessness that must be punished. Therefore, separated by a dense screen of light, the two guys would point to the sky and scold the world from time to time, but after a while, the two would get together again and start haggling.
Thus, as the night gradually deepened, a strange transaction across planes was concluded!
