The scale of the ecological park has nearly doubled since the arrival of the half-elves from the Dark Green Clan.
This also caused Lucheng to spend nearly a thousand energy coins on the expansion of the ecological park, but this expansion was worth it. Now the ecological park can not only carry out large-scale captive breeding of walking mushrooms, but also raise some chickens and ducks introduced from the earth.
Today, Lu Cheng came to the ecological park not to see the value of the chickens and ducks, but to discuss magic with the members of the Secret Society.
To be more precise, Lu Cheng came here to watch the fight.
As soon as Kelu Cheng arrived at the entrance of the ecological park, he saw three figures dressed in the robes of the Mystic Order all gathered in front of an off-road vehicle.
Two of the three members of the secret society were particularly eye-catching because they were less than half the height of a normal human.
"Gnome, or goblin? Or dwarf?"
Lu Cheng asked the girls around him in a low voice. When the members of the Secret Society arrived, Lu Cheng noticed that there were some non-human races in the Secret Society.
This time, Lu Cheng officially contacted them. Lu Cheng was very curious whether the two spellcasters were human.
"They are earth spirits." Nancy once again served as the 'Far South Tong' and whispered to Lu Cheng, "They are a rare race on this continent. I have only seen one or two earth spirit mentors in the Secret Society. They seem to come from another continent. Few earth spirits would settle near the Far South."
"Earth spirits?" Lu Cheng looked at the two earth spirits whose beards were almost longer than their bodies.
Although they are only about half the height of humans, their hands are twice as big as those of normal human males. This physical feature seems to be more in line with the setting of dwarves.
What they are doing is indeed very dwarven.
The hood of the SUV had been lifted by them, and two Earth Spirit men were dismantling the engine inside the SUV with a wrench in each hand.
"Captain Lu." Dr. Ji Chuan had been waiting for Lu Cheng at the entrance of the ecological park for a long time. Lu Cheng gestured for him to take everyone in first, and he walked to the off-road vehicle that was gradually being dismembered.
"You...aren't you the first one to dismantle the engine?"
Lu Cheng watched quietly for less than five seconds and found that the process of these two earth spirits dismantling the car engine could be described as skillful, not like novices who had just come into contact with cars.
"Oh! Is he the holder of the Saint Crystal?"
“Finally I see you!”
The moment the two earth spirits heard Lu Cheng's voice, they immediately put down the wrenches in their hands, jumped down from the wooden boxes they were using as stepping stones in unison, stretched out their greasy hands and shook hands with Lu Cheng.
"Hello." Lu Cheng didn't mind the oil stains on their hands. Oil stains on cars were the last thing a man should care about, and Lu Cheng also had a lot of experience in repairing cars and maintaining tanks.
It’s just that Lu Cheng’s right hand was held a little... painfully.
"My name is Tatano."
"My name is Lyric."
The two earth spirits kept the pace of their conversation remarkably consistent; even the amplitude of the up and down movements of their hands after holding Lu Cheng's were exactly the same.
"Are you twins?" Lu Cheng withdrew his hands and looked at the two earth spirits. They seemed to be old enough. Both of them were bald, but the beards underneath were very lush.
"No, no, we are two partners, and we are temporarily staying in the Secret Society to study golems."
"But our purpose is to find visitors from Earth. In your human time unit, we found Belvok fifty years ago, but he no longer has the ability to return to Earth."
The way the two earth spirits communicated with Lu Cheng was very brainwashing, but Lu Cheng still captured a lot of key information from their words.
"You knew about the existence of the Earth fifty years ago, or even earlier?"
Lu Cheng came to find these two earth spirits just out of curiosity...he wanted to get to know some intelligent races other than humans, but they seemed to be very familiar with the past of the Earth
"We visited Earth by accident a hundred years ago."
"At that time, your world was still at war. It was a terrible war."
"But we still learned a lot of useful things, like the steam engine and the internal combustion engine."
"What will you do after learning these technical secrets... or will you choose to live in seclusion?"
Lu Cheng was not surprised to learn that these two earth spirits had been to Earth. Initially, Lu Cheng had a hypothesis that they were the prototypes of the fantasy creatures on Earth, such as elves, dwarves, vampires, werewolves, and even the creatures in the Classic of Mountains and Seas of the Celestial Empire were not made up.
It is very likely that some creatures from another world accidentally visited the Earth, and their appearance was recorded by the ancients.
"We know."
"But we don't know how to build it." The two earth spirits said in a somewhat innocent tone.
"I see. Then why did you spend nearly seventy years looking for the Earthlings?"
Lu Cheng took a look at the robes of the Secret Order on them. The robes were very old, and it was obvious that they had lived in the Secret Order for a long time, because Bayerwok was a resident from Earth.
"We want to build a bridge, a bridge with a very large span, which cannot be done with the golems and the steel we forged."
"Rocks are impossible, but I have seen many bridges across the ocean in your world," they said.
Just because of this, they spent seventy years searching the world for Earthlings? What were these Earthlings thinking
There are also bridges from a hundred years ago. If Lu Cheng remembers correctly, there should be no bridges that can be called magnificent. At least compared with the cross-sea bridges in modern society, they are too fragile.
"Have you ever returned to your own country in these seventy years?" Lu Cheng guessed that these two earth spirits must belong to other countries, otherwise they would not say that they were temporarily staying in the Secret Society.
"No, seventy years in our concept is about the same as ten years of yours."
"But it's still a long journey, and we still miss home, but we are too embarrassed to go back without completing the mission."
The other earth spirit with a gray beard sounded aggrieved.
They are actually immortals? If we calculate this way, they are probably already two or three hundred years old! The Earth Spirit race is worthy of being included in the list of key research by Lucheng.
But if it were a human being, what kind of spirit would it be to spend ten years traveling around the world looking for someone who could build a bridge for their country
"I think you have found the right person. We are very good at building bridges, but the price you want us to build things for you is not low," said Lu Cheng.
"We should be able to afford the energy coins, but we need to discuss the details after we return to our country."
"We are still members of the Secret Society, and we have many secrets to share about the world of Golem."
The two earth spirits have shown enough sincerity. This may be the first major project undertaken by the Celestial Empire in the other world, but Lu Cheng still needs to confirm the specific content with them later.
What Lucheng needs to do now is to classify the magic system of this world according to the knowledge of the Secret Society.
