Annie glanced at the contents of Nancy's box, frowned slightly, and questioned: "The quality of the things you brought is okay, but the quantity... is a little wrong, right?"
Nancy did not deny it, and said calmly: "There is no way. You are asking too much, and you also ask us to hide. Even if the price is high enough, the output will not be too large. After all, we have just started to deal with this thing, and we lack experience and make mistakes. The rate is too high, and some equipment has not been fully produced. Therefore, the quantity you require cannot be reached this time.
But don’t worry, we will continue to improve it. After a while, we will be able to meet the requirements of the boss behind you, Richard. After a while, we will even exceed it. "
"I hope so." Annie said without getting too entangled in this issue. She waved her hand and said, "Come with me."
After saying that, he looked at the tall gray wolf: "Lead the way."
The gray wolf seemed to be wise and understood, and turned around and ran towards the depths of the forest.
Anne, Nancy and Gro quickly followed.
"Shuashushu..."
The three of them and one wolf changed directions many times in the forest. They traveled for an unknown amount of time, and finally stopped on a piece of soft ground.
"Ouch-"
The gray wolf lowered his body and roared. There was a "rustling" sound among the surrounding trees, and one beast after another walked out.
Different from ordinary beasts, these beasts are extremely tall and full of attack power. Even if they are not demonized creatures, they are not much different.
Gro's face looked a little nervous. Nancy also frowned and turned her head slightly to look at Annie and asked, "Hey, they won't attack, right?"
"Don't worry, it won't be." Anne replied aloud, taking a step closer to Nancy as she spoke. Facing the beast, his expression was a little wary, but he was obviously relaxed in his words, but he was also a little unsure in his heart.
Fortunately, this scene did not last long. The many beasts seemed to be just the eyes of an unknown existence. After watching them for a long enough time, they slowly dispersed.
However, before the three of them had time to breathe a sigh of relief, there was another sound of "rustling", and green vines grew out of the depths of the forest. Like pythons, they wrapped around the boxes brought by Nancy and Grotty and quickly dragged them away. ,Disappear.
Nancy looked curiously in the direction of the vines' retraction, hoping to see something, but found that thick white mist obscured her vision.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Annie, and asked aloud: "That boss of yours, Richard, what exactly did he put here?"
Annie was silent for a few seconds and said in a cold tone: "You don't need to know."
"What you mean by this means that you don't know either, right?" Nancy said.
"You can't confirm whether I know or not. But I can confirm that you definitely don't know." Anne did not give in.
The two men's eyes began to meet again.
"Why-"
Gro couldn't help but cover his forehead and made a voice: "Are you two done with each other? Can you leave here? This place makes me very uncomfortable..."
"Shut up!"
Anne and Nancy said in unison again with great understanding.
"I… "
Gro was flabbergasted and thought with a painful expression on his face: Why did Richard have to choose these two people to be responsible for the "junk ore" transaction? Are there no others in the world
Of course, he didn't dare to say, and he didn't dare to ask.
…
the other side.
Soma Alliance, Faroe City.
A recently built medium-sized courtyard is located on a remote street in the east city. Compared with neighboring courtyards, it is not very luxurious, but it is definitely not shabby either.
To put it simply, this is a very ordinary, medium-sized courtyard where middle-class families live.
The first owner of the courtyard was the owner of a dyeing shop. When his business was booming and he made enough money, he hired people to build the courtyard according to his own wishes. Every furnishing and decoration in the courtyard has been carefully considered.
According to the businessman's idea, he will live in this courtyard for the rest of his life.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.
He needs a niche dye ore to dye his cloth. Since last year, due to the impact of the emerging mines in the Southern Free Federation, the price of this ore has been rising, causing his dyeing cost to become higher and higher. In the end, he had no choice but to close the shop, sold the yard at a low price at the end of last year, and left Faro to find a way to make a living.
After that, the courtyard was vacant for a while with a moneylender, and three months ago it was bought by a fresh-faced young man who had just arrived in Faroe.
After the young man bought it, he made almost no changes to the courtyard. After moving in, his daily life was extremely quiet.
Sometimes, it's even doubtful whether anyone lives in it.
However, the residents in the adjacent courtyard were not overly curious people, so they didn't pay too much attention to it, and everything went as it should.
At this time, in the courtyard, in the corner of the side bedroom, under the secret door on the floor, through the long diagonally downward corridor, you arrived at a narrow secret room.
There was nothing in the secret room except a black suitcase—and that was the space prop Eden.
…
Inside the Garden of Eden.
In the open space of the main laboratory, Pandora and the Lich Old Man were standing with slightly serious and nervous expressions.
In front of them, a huge bone magic puppet nearly fifteen meters tall was trembling and trying to maintain balance. It looked like it would fall down at any time, which made people sweat.
After more than ten seconds, when the giant puppet finally stood firm, the old Lich breathed out, turned to Pandora and asked, "Is it okay now?"
"It should be okay." Pandora said with a sullen face.
"Okay then, let's merge the next spell puppet, which is the 243rd spell puppet." The old lich said, waving his hand to the spell puppets lined up next to him.
The magic puppet at the front understood the situation and immediately left the team, running towards the huge puppet that could barely stand still. He ran close, stepped on the ground with his feet, flew high, flying higher and higher, and then... with a "bang", he hit the giant puppet's knees.
The spell puppet's body twisted, its bones dislocated, and the knees of the giant puppet were connected to each other. Other parts of the giant puppet's body are constantly moving and making fine adjustments.
Visible to the naked eye, the giant magic puppet rose slightly, and its body shook before returning to stability.
The old man Lich's eyes lit up, and he exhaled with excitement: "It seems successful! New record, two hundred and forty-three! We..."
As a result, before he could speak, the huge magic puppet in front of him suddenly shook violently. With a "click", both legs were broken, and the upper body fell heavily to the ground like a collapsed hill.
"Crash!"
Thousands of bones were scattered all over the ground in an instant, and the dust was raised like boiling water.
"Don't... don't!"
The old man Lich couldn't help shouting. Looking at the scene in front of him, his expression was stunned at first, and then became "dumb" - dumbfounded.
