Hearing her words, the corners of Nicotine's mouth curled into an imperceptible arc, and he said in a low voice: "We must first find out whether he has been bought by this brat. If he is bought, this brat will use him to send wrong information to us. , we can also use him in reverse to send wrong information to that brat!"
Guinness nodded slightly.
"I went out first, so as not to be suspected by him." Nicotine said, turned and opened the door and walked out.
Guinness looked at his back, a glimmer of light flickered in her eyes.
…
…
Temple of Elements, in the Thirteenth Fort.
Two figures sat at the tea table drinking tea, and there were some newspapers beside them. On the largest page was a sketch portrait, which was exactly what Du Dian looked like, with a smile on his face, full of gentleness and humility.
"This little guy, he dares to charge the price of five-star magic before the new magic is produced. It's crazy." Ibiza glanced at the newspaper, and slowly moved to Terence's face in front of him, saying : "I didn't expect that the little guy who wanted to be my assistant at the beginning could come to this point now. From his military crossbow, it can be seen that the new textile machine that this little guy made at the beginning was not just a moment of luck. It’s a rare talent, but it’s just too proud.”
Terrence snorted softly and said, "Have we seen such a genius? He was proud at the moment, young and energetic, despising everything, and finally fell, worse than anyone else! He couldn't get up no matter how hard he tried, and he never recovered. , completely reduced to mediocrity. In the final analysis, the more glory you get now, when you fall, these glory will turn into countless sharp swords and stab your body, making him unable to turn over!"
Ibiza's eyes flickered slightly, and he said with a smile: "You're right, but this little guy seems to be very satisfied with his new magic, maybe even if it's not a five-star magic, it's at least a three-star, or even a four-star." , otherwise I dare not boast so much, people who can reach this step have a bit of brains, and they will not be blinded by the current small achievements."
"I hope so." Terrence's mouth curled up slightly, his voice was flat, but his expression showed a trace of disdain.
Ibiza didn't seem to see his expression and thought, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, I have to congratulate you, you will have another master in the wood department in the future, and even exceed your record back then, becoming the youngest wood department master. It’s not necessarily a master, and it’s a pity to say that if your hydraulic loom was produced a few days earlier, you wouldn’t only get a four-star mid-grade evaluation, and it’s absolutely no problem to reach five stars.”
Terrence raised his eyebrows and sneered: "The youngest master? Don't say he is not yet, even if he is a master, he is just the same as you and me. Besides, God's favor is sometimes broken. Inspiration If you don’t say it, you won’t have it. Those who can really go long are like you and me, step by step, stepping up slowly. Even if you fall down on the way, you can clean up your mood and start again, but he is different. At a young age So honored, once you fall, hey, it's probably ruined!"
Ibiza sighed: "Yeah, I hope he can learn to face failure."
Terrence sneered slightly, but didn't speak.
Ibiza drank the tea in the cup, got up and said, "It's late, I'll go back first, no one is watching, those little guys are going to be lazy again."
"Well, I'll see you off." Terrence immediately got up to see him off.
Standing at the door and watching Ives leave in the carriage, Terence slowly looked away, with a gloomy expression, "Old fox, don't I know that the Krylov consortium is behind you, and you want to use my hand to test this Little devil, hum!"

…
In a blink of an eye, three days passed.
Du Dian retreats in the castle every day. He only exercises on the training ground every morning. He doesn't see him in the afternoon and evening. Even if he eats in a hurry, he continues to drill into the basement.
Seeing Du Dian so desperately, it was Kaqi who felt the deepest. He knew how much training he had arranged. With this young man's physique, the training in the morning alone would exhaust his energy and make him collapse. Work does not consume physical energy, but also requires brain power, and brain power is more painful than exercise in a state of extreme fatigue.
Hei Scar and Lao Jin have spent the past few days revisiting the previously learned skills on the training ground to ensure that they can display their due level when hunting outside the wall.
In the basement.
Du Dian looked at the old-fashioned machine assembled in front of him, his eyes glowed with brilliance. This is a hand-operated DC generator. It took him three full days to finally create it from scratch. From this moment on, he has mastered the power of electricity!
"If it is handed over to the Temple of Elements for evaluation, it should be a cross-age legendary item." Du Dian's face showed a bit of excitement. Legendary items are priceless, and selling millions of sky-high gold coins can cause mad rush, and Only the top consortia have the ability to purchase. Moreover, there are relevant regulations in the temple. For the legendary items produced by the staff of the temple, the temple will automatically obtain the production and sales rights. The points of the legendary items will also be used as rewards and supplements, as well as a lot of other benefits. Generally speaking, it is mandatory bound.
Even though there are temples that have to take a share, legendary items can still sell for millions of gold coins, because the meaning they represent is to dominate a field!
However, after thinking about it, Du Dian still restrained this impulse. At present, the thunder elements of the Temple of Elements have just entered the research state, and guiding items such as lightning rods may reach the level of five-star magic. A generator, even if it is only the most old-fashioned, represents an extraordinary meaning, and it will even arouse the high-level response of the Holy See of Light.
With Du Dian's current vision and understanding, it is still impossible to estimate what kind of chain reaction and effect this generator will cause. Because of this, he plans to use it by himself for the time being, and hand it over when the time is right in the future.
"The promotion of technology is still too slow. As soon as the new textile machine comes out, there is no product involving steam. It seems that I will be the first stepping stone again." Du Dian looked at the generator, and his thoughts drifted to other places. Finally, he withdrew his mind, moved the hand-operated DC generator aside, pulled out another blueprint, and prepared to build a cannon!
"With the power output of this hand-operated direct current generator of about 100 watts, even the smallest electroslag remelting furnace can't be moved. The Mellon consortium has not moved yet. It is definitely different. It must be conducting secret operations. We must first improve our strength, and we must have strength as a guarantee." Du Dian gave up the idea of building a modern cannon in one breath, and as for the power station, he also put it aside in his mind, the quieter the Mellon consortium, the stronger the uneasiness in his heart , only by improving one's own strength first can there be a basic guarantee.
time flies.
Eight days passed in a blink of an eye.
On this day, Du Dian came out of the basement to have dinner, and said to Nicotine: "Prepare some suitcases for me later, and send them outside the basement."
"The suitcase?" Nicotine was surprised, "The magic is done?"
Du Dian nodded slightly, and it took eight days to finally create it.
Seeing Du Dian nodding, Kaqi and others looked at each other in blank dismay, full of surprise and curiosity, not knowing what the new magical technique that the major consortiums were thinking about would look like.
After dinner, Du Dian took the suitcase to the basement and put the assembly parts on the ground into it. As for the huge base and gun barrel, they could only be carried with cloth rolls.
Nicotine and others looked around curiously, and were a little surprised when they saw the huge metal round pipe on the ground. This kind of rough thing like a chimney is also called magic
After all the parts were packed, Du Dian said to Hei Scar and Lao Jin: "Go to bed early tonight, starting tomorrow, I'm going outside the wall."
Nicotine was surprised and said, "Isn't your new divine art going to be sent to the temple for identification?"
Du Dian glanced at him and said: "Have you ever seen such a rough magic? This is a weapon dedicated to hunting monsters. I don't know if it is easy to use. Take it outside the wall to test the water first."
"Uh..." Nicotine was choked and speechless.
Kaqi said in amazement: "This... this thing is used for hunting monsters? Just rely on this pipe?"
Guinness stood by and watched Du Dian's every move silently, silently.
When Du Dian heard Kaqi's words, he almost didn't spit out a sip of water. Then he thought about it. It's the era of cold weapons. It's normal for Kaqi to have such thinking. I know if it works or not."
Kaqi's head was full of black lines, and said: "This...do you need to use it to know?"
Du Dian looked at his expression of speechless contempt, rolled his eyes, and ignored him.
After dismissing everyone, Du Dian went back to the room and performed the unshakable left hand carving exercise every night, and did not fall asleep until late at night.
the next day.
Waking up on time, Du Dian put on his hunter armor, washed quickly, went downstairs, looked at the nicotine in the hall, and said, "Are you ready for the dry food outside the wall, for five people."
