Although he suddenly thought of a magic item manufacturing system that could work normally in different planes, the problem before Chen Zhou was still not completely solved.
The gems that serve as the core of magic items and are used to power parts are still necessary items.
"This is too fake. How can Blue Star's high-end gemstones be more expensive than Asta's?"
While browsing the jewelry stores on Amazon, and constantly swiping aside Lily who was lying on the mouse and staring at the gems on the web page with envy, Chen Zhou silently calculated what level of magic items he could create with his own funds.
And the answer is - crappy street stuff.
As an earl, he was terribly poor. Most of the money he collected from the Star People was invested in the development of the Great River Territory, and he only had a few hundred gold coins at his disposal.
After all, no matter what Chen Zhou does in Dahe Territory, he usually doesn't need to spend any money.
A few hundred gold coins does seem like a lot at first glance, but the unlimited Coke cup he made last year when he was still in Flower Port was already this price...
If you want to create a magical object that can turn people into magical girls (whether male or female), thousands of them can only be considered mass-produced.
Stockpiling is always the easiest option to improve performance.
Thinking of this, Chen Zhou called Liu Yi without hesitation: "I need money."
The latter's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, why did the money come to him?
"How many?"
"In terms of your currency, let's say at least a few million."
"..."
This golden gradient layer is really not polite at all.
He had just arrived at Blue Star and was able to ask for several million in less than a week. He didn't dare to think about how much it would cost after a while!
"To you, money is just a number."
Seeing that the other end of the phone fell into silence not knowing what to say, Chen Zhou explained: "Actually, what I really need is not money, but the resources that money can buy."
Liu Yi suddenly realized when he heard this. He almost forgot that the other party was a paladin of the god of machinery and industrialization. It was natural that he would need resources for manufacturing.
It’s just that I don’t know what it is that this paladin wants to create out of the blue. Materials of this magnitude must be some kind of wonder.
"It's not a big problem, Earl, but I need to know what you want to build before I can help you apply. Otherwise, it will be difficult to approve materials of this size."
Magical girl transformation device, can this kind of thing also be said?
It feels like his reputation will be tarnished once he says it, but he is still very popular among the people of the Star.
"We want to make..."
"Staf! A staff like a gun or missile that can be used in Blue Star's magic network environment. It has a certain level of intelligence and can be activated normally by ordinary people!"
"Is this true!?" Liu Yi was immediately overjoyed.
Money has never been a problem for national-level budgets. The biggest problem with Asta's staff is that only spellcasters and those with professional training (UMD) can use it to control the invisible and mysterious power with their own will. .
A staff that can take effect on Blue Star and can be used by ordinary people is tantamount to a portable high-yield weapon. It can also increase the combat capabilities of individual soldiers to the limit through a variety of spell effects!
"No problem, this application will definitely be approved!" Liu Yi made the decision for his superior on the spot, "But we are church members after all. Count, can you use this technology when you see it..."
"The pastor and his immediate boss are church members, absolutely. This pastor would not be able to survive in any other church."
After all, the main focus of the Industrialized Church is to be down-to-earth, but Chen Zhou thought that after a few hundred years, he would no longer care about the main matter.
"I can give you the drawings, but considering your technical issues, mass production must be simplified."
Liu Yi nodded repeatedly, understanding.
You don't need a Gundam, Zaku is enough. Modern warfare is all about beauty that can be copied in batches and equivalent.
2*1 is far inferior to 1.1*10.
As long as there are such a batch of staffs, it will be possible for a company of professional soldiers to become invisible and then airborne, teleporting to enemy headquarters, Capitol Hill and other important locations!
"As long as you don't do evil or abuse magic, I don't care how you use the mass-produced staff. In short, transport the materials I want to Dixon Pier as soon as possible. There will be local people to help you."
After saying that, he hung up the phone decisively and sent the materials he needed to the other party via text message.
Having said that, these materials still cannot meet all his needs. A good gem (or a similar core with great magical significance) is still the top priority of the entire staff.
However, synthetic gems are meaningless. Only materials that have been slowly transformed by magical energy in a natural environment have the value of making strange objects.
"By the way, I'll give Lily a few tons of artificial gemstones as snacks." Thinking of this, he sent Liu Yi another text message, completely ignoring the pale face on the other end of the phone.
Even if the cost of artificial gems is the price of cabbage, I have never seen anyone eating cabbage by the ton!
"It's probably not as delicious as real gems...it's better to eat small fish." 』
"Alas, the gems here in Blue Star that have the potential to be used as magic materials are all very expensive. We still have to go back to Dahe to get them."
Seeing that the other party was going back to Asta just a few days after arriving, Shushu couldn't help but feel surprised.
According to the function of the staff described by the other party, even Asta probably wouldn't have a gem that was outstanding enough, right?
The stable magic network has been gone for thousands of years, and Asta's output of magic materials has been decreasing year by year.
Even if the state of the demiplane is gradually restored with the return of the magic tide, it will not be possible to produce the required materials in a short period of time.
"But there must have been suitable materials tens of thousands of years ago. Didn't we just meet a friend from the end of the Roland Empire?"
Shushu was speechless, how could he have a friend who would use all his strength to beat him up.
But if it was the white dragon from ancient times, it remembered that there were indeed many gems of sufficient quality in the other party's collection.
"But if David is squeezed like this, he will probably be thinking about running away sooner or later, right?"
Chen Zhou was dumbfounded. Even if he didn't exploit the white dragon, he would still be thinking about running away.
"I didn't say that I wanted to prostitute him for nothing. This is more uncomfortable than killing a dragon. Can I just exchange it with David for something of the same value?"
"What things have the same value?" 』
Lily's eyes immediately lit up when she heard this. How come she didn't know that the other person had other treasures hidden in him?
"I'm not so poor that I'm completely destitute. Things like money..."
Chen Zhou stretched out his hand helplessly, and based on the knowledge he learned more than a month ago, through the power of myth and the extreme cold blood that his body was born with, a perfect ice that exuded a bone-chilling chill slowly took shape.
This illusory magic material that only existed during the ancient Holy Roland Empire was rubbed out with his hand into a fist-sized piece.
"Legendary magic materials like this can be rubbed by hand. It's just that I feel that abusing the power of magic and myth will arouse the disgust of the Church of Magic and the Church of Wealth."
"Then haven't you ever thought that Zhen Bing can actually serve as the core part of the staff?"
"..."
Chen Zhou really didn't think too much about it. "Ice" was also considered a gem in a sense.
