The appraisal report confirmed Roland's guess, and what made him even more overjoyed was that the performance of the "Dimensional Ring Portal" that was upgraded to the legendary level after absorbing the potential was greatly improved, and the upper limit of the plane diameter of the teleportable items was expanded from 5 feet to 50 feet, as long as the cross-sectional diameter of the item did not exceed 50 feet, it could be stuffed in, and the bigger surprise was that the daily transportation limit has surged from 10,000 pounds to 1 million pounds, which is equivalent to 500 tons, which is almost catching up with the carrying capacity of a medium-sized cargo ship!

"Your Highness Roland, this is no problem with the 'Dimensional Ring Portal', right?" Otto noticed that Roland's face was changing, and he couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart, lest he be deceived.

"Very good!" Roland smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Otto, this is exactly the magic guide we urgently need at the moment, you should pay more attention in the future, if you encounter a similar teleportation device......"

"Acquisition at any cost?" Otto said the second half of the sentence for him, and he was secretly relieved in his heart.

Roland smiled and nodded, "That's right, you can see how much it's worth." ”

"That's going to be easy, I'll keep an eye on it." Otto stretched, and his smile had a more lewd taste, "It's rare for His Royal Highness the Prince to come back, how about I invite you to go to Perth's shopkeeper's shop for a while, I heard that a pair of rabbit sisters have recently come, and the striptease dance is called a stick!" ”

As the silver trade and industry continued to expand, the local "red light district" also flourished. Out of the consideration of following the local customs, Roland did not suppress these gray industries, but he himself had no interest in patronizing. Waving his hand, he declined Otto's invitation, "You can play by yourself, I still have something to ask Eugene for advice." ”

"Business?" Otto asked curiously.

"Ask him about the star quality, and plan to use the star quality as the material to transform the wheel technology of the carriage." Roland explained simply.

Otto was a very shrewd businessman, and his years of experience working with Roland had taught him that His Royal Highness's new initiatives often meant huge business opportunities, and although he didn't understand the relationship between 'star quality' and 'wheels', he still eagerly asked, "Can you let me stay and listen?" ”

"Of course, maybe I'll have to pull you into a business partnership," Roland turned his head to look at the temperament Sven's creator, "Eugene, you don't mind, do you?" ”

Eugene smiled and shook his head, "Come to my office for tea, there is no carriage in the astral boundary, I really can't think of it, how could His Royal Highness the prince think of modifying the wheels of the carriage with astral quality?" ”

"It's not like I had to do it on a whim," Roland sighed, "I consulted many wise men to solve the problem of the wheel, and finally got advice from a master alchemist, as to whether the star quality can play the role I expect...... Eugene, it's all up to you now, after all, no one is better at working with the special material of astral matter than the 'Shaper'. ”

Eugene felt the heavy responsibility from Roland's serious demeanor, and nodded solemnly, "I will definitely do my best!" ”

"Anyway, you get some star quality first, let's verify whether this thing is suitable for wrapping wheels." Otto couldn't wait to propose.

"No problem, please wait, it'll be right away." A strange light appeared in the depths of the "Shapemaker's" pupils, as if they were engaged in some kind of mystical meditation.

"Is Eugene showing his abilities?" Otto was not a psychic person, he couldn't see the doorway, and he couldn't contain his curiosity to ask Roland.

"It's not manifestation, he's entering a state of 'spiritual concentration,' which you can simply understand as meditation with no external objects in mind." Roland lowered his voice so as not to interfere with Eugene's meditation, and then explained: "'Extracting Star Essence' is a special skill, although it does not require the consumption of psionic points, but it can only be completed in the state of 'psionic energy concentration', so it can only be operated by psychic abilities, as for whether or not you have a psionic class, it is not a necessary condition. ”

"If you say that, you can extract the star quality yourself, so why bother to turn to Eugene?" Otto asked, puzzled.

Roland smiled bitterly: "The skill of 'extracting star quality' requires rigorous and systematic training to master, I am a wild path, I have not received relevant training, and I don't understand this skill." ”

Otto nodded knowingly, his gaze returning to Eugene. At this time, the silver-gray starry sky in front of the "Shapelayer" seemed to have turned into a viscous solution, and the mysterious tissues that made up the astral space gathered into his palm like a trickle, and in an instant, it condensed into a mass the size of a skull, with a slightly silver-gray color and a texture similar to a translucent gel.

"This is the astral quality, most of the houses and furniture in the astral realm are made of this natural material, the hardness is about the same as wood, but it is extremely elastic and not easy to break." Otto whispered.

Roland was no stranger to houses and utensils built by astral substances, but he had never seriously studied this material, and after listening to Otto's introduction, he realized that this thing did indeed have many similarities with the natural rubber on earth. It is said that the Psychic Warlock has a Tier 1 ability that can temporarily breathe life into the astral construct, shaping it into a "astral construct" to act as a slave, which is quite amazing to think about.

Maintaining "psionic concentration" for a long time was a drain, and Roland saw that Eugene had extracted enough star mass to make a pair of tires, so he raised his hand to signal that he could rest.

Eugene nodded knowingly, the strange glint in his eyes disappeared, and the "spiritual concentration" was over, and the large mass of star mass in his hand no longer grew.

Roland took the astral ball from Eugene's hand and weighed it twice, and found that it was much lighter than the same volume of rubber, and such a light material used to build a house was probably only suitable in the astral boundary, where there was no wind all year round, and if it was in the main material realm, a gust of wind would blow the house away.

Otto reached over, grabbed a mass of star mass and pulled it hard, stretched it into a long one, and retracted it with a "snap" in the moment of letting go, reverting to a round sphere, showing excellent elasticity.

Roland listed the various properties of rubber tires, and compared them with the star quality one by one with the help of Eugene, and found that the star quality is better than rubber in most of the properties, and the fly in the ointment is that it is not as resistant to friction as rubber.

"It's fine to make horse-drawn carriage tires out of star-quality and run on the smooth streets of a town, but if you run through a rough field with a lot of sharp gravel, I'm afraid it won't take a few days to wear it out." Roland frowned.

"Your Highness, if you want to increase the friction resistance of the stars, I have a way, but ...... I had to sacrifice some of the other aspects of the star quality in other ways. Eugene hesitated.

"Tell me first, what's the solution?" Roland asked with interest.
