Starry Sky of the Magic Tower

As one of the important towns in the western part of the Gwana Empire, Abadan City, in addition to its strategic significance, has mines and forests in the hinterland of Abadan. There is also a river passing by. Simply put, it means that natural resources are abundant and commerce is prosperous. No matter what industry it develops, Innate has an advantage.

So such a city can easily attract a large population. Not only free-living ordinary people, including some nobles with territories, will come here to look for business opportunities. This is also one of the reasons why a large number of nobles or their family members gathered in this city.

Moreover, it is not only humans who live here. There are also dwarves, elves, halflings, half-orcs, goblins, etc. Many non-human Homo sapiens live in this city for long. This is also a major feature of the Gwana Empire.

In comparison, other countries and other regions have discrimination problems, so there are not many Homo sapiens other than humans in other places. Unless they have a certain degree of self-confidence in their own strength, such talents dare to travel around the Lost Continent. Basically, you will not see children of different races.

The reason for this is that Gwana founded the country on the day when the dark age of Demon King Tikal came to an end. And as the mysterious surface world, the oldest country in existence, Gwanna was originally not an empire, but an ally of a hundred races.

It is a so-called ethnic integration with Earth. In fact, half of the population in the country has different ancestors from slaves, coolies or criminals. The allies of the 100 ethnic groups of Gwana are a nation established by the union of many different Homo sapiens ethnic groups. All races are equal from the beginning.

Although the hundreds of races declined afterwards, the human race became dominant, the co-lord who took turns became a hereditary emperor, and the allies became an empire, but the status of the races did not lose power because of this. To this day, the various races still maintain their influence on the imperial family and the emperor’s succession. This is the sole power of the magic land, and no other country allows such a thing.

It’s not that there are no humans, and even the successor emperor himself wants to change this situation, let Human Race dominate and expel hundreds of races. But the reality is impossible to do. Because the ancient World Tree, the wood elves tribe of Uktra Hill, is in the hinterland of the empire. At that time, the sixteen regular Legions that the empire was proud of were almost wiped out by all the tribes who had retreated to World Tree.

The surrounding countries also took advantage of the weakness of the empire to attack them in groups. It can be said that at that time, the Gwana Empire was the closest to its subjugation. In the end, the current emperor abdicated, and the new emperor reintroduced the Hundred Clan Covenant. At the cost of losing a large border, the empire re-stabilized with the support of the coalition forces of all races.

Incidentally, World Tree Uktrahir is the Grand Duke in the Gowana Empire, and the Wood Elf tribe belongs to Duchy and enjoys extraterritorial rights, just like the Sect Master country and the slaves. Dependence But in fact, all these powers and titles were just imposed on World Tree by the Gwana Empire, and the wood elves never fought for the empire.

For Uktra Hill, since he was conscious, the kingdom around him has gone from establishment to glory, and then from apocalyptic to defeat. Who doesn’t claim that he has the power to rule him? . As a result, those countries perished one by one, but oneself still stands tall. So for anyone who wants to take advantage of their mouths, World Tree doesn’t care.

And for those who hide under his shelter, Uktrahir is treated equally. Whether it is wood elves or people of other races, everyone must abide by His rules. Violators will only die. And those who cannot abide by His commandments usually choose to leave on their own.

In the next few hundred years, the situation of the Gwana Empire will be against the outside world, and there will be wins and losses for each other. Under such external pressure, it made the empire more united. It is also in this context that Homo sapiens other than humans have a relatively high status and a safe environment in the Gwana Empire.

Otherwise, in the airship-related industries in Abadan City, the practitioners of the overwhelming majority are all races other than humans, mainly dwarves and halflings. After having lunch, Lin let the goblin Totokani lead the way and visit the airship shipbuilder he knew well.

Wearing a magician formal dress, tied a golden ear line in front of the little shawl. Lin did not bring anything except the purse and the magic stone with the design sketch data, including self-protection. Weapons used. In theory, the appearance of the box cut is very deceptive. No matter how you look at it, it looks just like an ordinary long sword. As long as you don’t speak, no one will recognize it.

But I was afraid that a certain weapon that could not bear the loneliness would not open his mouth, so I put it in the hotel and didn’t bring it out. Anyway, whenever there is a need, summon at any time, you can start at any time. And someone didn’t know how much trouble Xiaqie caused yesterday, so he dared to walk on the street aggressively. If he knew, he would have to hide for a few days to avoid the limelight before he went out to do business.

The craftsmen that the goblins know are not as unreliable as the goblins. Or it should be said that goblin engineers, self-produced and self-sold, really want to open the door to do business, only to go bankrupt.

For this, Totocani previously planned to use the airship he built to do business, carry passengers or goods, and earn freight. The results were all mixed up to the point of gnawing bark and eating grass roots. If it hadn’t been for a certain Lich’s brain pumping, they would have starved to death in Waikato.

In short, anyone who can open a business in Abadan to do business has several points of real skill. It’s just that people who can deal with goblins have a more or less cautious temperament. Lin wouldn’t be too disgusted with this, anyway, doing business is not the same thing. Those who sell things want to earn more, those who buy things want to spend less.

However, Lin is not who Totocani introduces, so he chooses whom to buy things from. Because what someone needs is actually customized products, the first priority is to have a workshop willing to cooperate.

For those dwarves or halflings who relied on craftsmanship and technology, Lin was called back as soon as they asked, and even solemnly vowed that those things could not be used, and the system they designed must be used. Of course someone politely declined, and then left. It’s not benevolence and righteousness in business, but there is no need to speak against each other.

So let Totocani take it with him, busy all afternoon, and finally find the workshop responsible for all the parts designed by someone. However, everyone was unable to start work immediately. Some preparations must be made, including purchasing the required materials. For someone’s request, it is not made out of a random piece of iron.

If you want to buy materials, of course, the initial costs are not entirely borne by the craftsmen of the manufacturing, and the commercial behavior of Midi has not yet reached the general level of Earth. According to the custom here, the party who ordered the item has to bear the full cost of the material.

There are usually two methods. One is that the materials are directly provided by Lin; the other is that the craftsmen find the source of the materials and retrieve them, but they will not start working until the material costs are paid.

Lin is also unfamiliar with the place in Abadan. Of course, buying rare materials is not something he can do. So everything is entrusted to the craftsmen who undertake the work.

Of course, it also takes time to schedule the materials. Lin had to take advantage of this period to re-transcribe the design drawings. The exploded view of the three-dimensional imaging is presented by a method that can only be achieved by using the first coffin. It’s impossible to dismantle the first coffin into several parts and give it to the craftsmen who belong to different workshops. Then someone will not be dismantled by Lich.

To make a few low-level versions, dedicated for others to use, but also worry about this technology being used by others. There is a clear distinction between what someone can promote and what cannot be promoted.

Some basic things are spread out, which can promote the technological progress of Midi. However, if some advanced things are spread out, they may become a cage that restricts the thinking of others, and may also cause destructive turbulence. This situation is what Lin wants to avoid.

The former is like a flash technique, and the latter is a real-time communication system that has always been hidden. Of course, sometimes things are too complicated, so being too lazy to teach others is also one of the reasons.

Just in accordance with the original agreement, the craftsmen will send someone to notify them after dispatching the required materials. I bring material costs and design drawings, and the follow-up work can start. The scheduling time is expected to be only two to three days.

But after four days passed, Lin did not receive any notice. It’s also a shame that I took two apprentices to work until the middle of the night for the purpose of designing the map two days ago, just to make it possible for people to have the map available. I didn’t expect what I desperately pushed out, but it was left unused for two days.

For this situation, Totocani is equally puzzled. Although Uzov Gantia went out to listen to the news in the past few days, of course he also informed everyone of the big Louzi that had been poked out. However, no news was received about the problems that someone faced in transforming the airship.

So those who didn’t want to wait any longer, took the goblins and went to the agreed workshops. See if there is a problem with the scheduling of materials, and whether you need to find alternative materials.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t go out. When you go out to listen, you’re just shutting your door. Even the few craftsmen who had been quite enthusiastic at first invited the guests out with embarrassment.

In addition, I visited other workshops that I had not visited before. As long as Totocani reported the identity of the captain of the airship Sid, he usually got similar results. It depends on someone showing up as a magician. Otherwise, Lin was guessing that maybe there was a grumpy one, and he would be punched out.

Now the pig knows that there is a problem, even more how is someone who has seen a lot of conspiracy novels and animations.

Back in the hotel, everything was combined with everyone. Everyone vaguely felt a nodded thread, but they didn’t understand the whole sequence of events. Even Uzov blamed himself for not getting relevant news.

Lin doesn’t blame this dead skinny man who followed, but actually brought a lot of help to everyone. He said: “It’s not your fault. In fact, there is still a difference in focus between a spy and a commercial spy. Things only circulate in the airship-related workshops, not on a larger scale. This means that we can only start from this aspect and look for possible clues.”
