Chapter Twenty-Eight: Getting Carried Away

"What exactly are you going to do?"

When Erin left with deep confusion, Lilia couldn't help but ask Rocky.

Now even she couldn't figure out what Rocky was thinking, and she was even more curious about why Rocky wanted to go to the City of Sleepless God.

"Don't worry, you'll know when the time comes. ”

Smiling at Lilia, Rocky looked very confident, and then asked, "Lilia, according to your estimate, how long will it take for Thunderhawk City to fly to Sleepless God City?"

One of the biggest differences between Sky City and cities on land is that it can fly in the air, it can be said that you can go wherever you want, but the speed is relatively slow, so Rocky said that he wants to go to the City of the Nightless God is not to drive a floating boat, but to fly the entire Thunder Eagle City over!

"This ...... It will take at least a month, Nightless God City rarely moves, and it shouldn't be too far away from our current location. ”

"That's good. Knowing the time, Rocky nodded, and then left the City Lord's Hall, plunging headlong into his research room as usual.

A month is not too much, not too little, he must complete the rune culture of the Sky Demon Battle Armor during this period, otherwise the next thing will be difficult to do.

So as soon as he returned to the research room, he picked up the magic pen and began to continue drawing runes on the breastplate of the Sky Demon Warframe.

After these days of hard work, he had successfully drawn nearly a hundred first-level runes on his breastplate, but even that was still a bit insufficient.

The Sky Demon Armor itself has extremely high defensive power, and if you want to use runes to further strengthen it on this basis, you need a large number of runes to provide magic energy for support, so according to Rocky's conservative estimate, he must draw at least two hundred runes on the breastplate to really have an effect.

This is a big project, not only consuming mana, but also energy, and it is not a task that can be done casually.

Therefore, in the following days, he did not go out of the door at all, not only stayed in the research room every day, but sometimes simply slept in the research room.

And after another three full days, he finally drew a full two hundred magic runes on his breastplate!

"Whew...... It's finally done!"

Looking at the work he had completed day and night, Rocky breathed a long sigh of relief, but he randomly took the bracers in the Sky Demon Battle Armor to the research table.

Yes, just drawing runes on the cuirass was not enough for him, he planned to draw runes on the entire set of air demon armors!

And the reason why it is said to be strengthened rather than transformed is because everything he is doing now has not caused a fundamental change to the Sky Demon Warframe, but has only been enhanced with runes.

To be honest, it was a big deal for him to use the runes in this way, because the height that the magic runes could reach and the changes they could make were more than simple enhancements.

But helplessly, the current Rocky really has no conditions and no ability to give full play to the true effect of runes, and he can think of this idea of using runes to strengthen the air demon armor is already the limit.

However, even if he 'wronged' the magic rune in this way, once it succeeded, it was enough to call it a groundbreaking move!

The next time passed like this, and in the blink of an eye, more than half a month passed, during which Rocky basically stayed in the research room every day, and the set of air demon armor he had was also painted with runes one by one.

And as time passed, the speed at which Rocky drew runes also increased significantly, this is because his techniques are becoming more and more proficient, and secondly, because except for the breastplate, the other positions of the air demon battle armor are smaller, and the number of runes that can be contained on it is naturally much less.

When he wholeheartedly strengthened the Sky Demon Battle Armor, two things happened in Thunder Eagle City, the first thing was that the people from the Purple Gold Flower Chamber of Commerce came.

As mentioned before, there are only two chambers of commerce that have trade dealings with Thunder Eagle City, the Azure Chamber of Commerce is responsible for selling yarn and grain to the city, and the cloth produced by Thunder Eagle City is sold to the Purple Gold Flower Chamber of Commerce.

Compared to the Azure Chamber of Commerce backed by Blue Wolf City, the Purple Gold Flower Chamber of Commerce responsible for purchasing cloth is much smaller, this Chamber of Commerce is headquartered in a medium-sized Sky City, the scale of the Chamber of Commerce is decent, and the strength is average, otherwise it would not buy the cloth of Thunder Eagle City for the sake of greed.

But fortunately, although the scale of the Purple Gold Flower Chamber of Commerce is small, its reputation has always been good, so this transaction did not make any waves, and Thunder Eagle City sold all the cloth produced in the city very smoothly.

And the second thing that happened during this period was still related to trading, that is, the Philosopher's Stone merchant contacted by Erin came.

Since Rocky only had a few medium-sized magic stones in his hands, the Chamber of Commerce would not come forward for this, and only a few merchants came to Thunderhawk City.

It's just that because the previous negotiations with the Azure Chamber of Commerce ended in failure, Erin blamed herself very much, thinking that it was her own incompetence that led to the failure, so when facing a few Philosopher's Stone merchants, she really put her heart into it.

I don't know what kind of means she used, but when Irene sold all the magic stones that Rocky gave her, they were sold for a full three thousand gold coins!

This price is a big surprise to Rocky!

He may not be a businessman, and he doesn't know the market, but he still has some idea of the approximate price of a medium-sized magic stone, a medium-sized magic stone full of magic energy is usually worth about five hundred gold coins, and Rocky only found four medium-sized magic stones from the research institute at the beginning, so according to his estimate, these four magic stones can be sold for two thousand gold coins.

But I didn't expect Erin to be so powerful, and she actually made the final price more than 1,000 gold coins, which is equivalent to selling 50% more!

"Erin, how the hell did you do that?"

When Erin told Rocky about the result, even Rocky, who wasn't very interested in such a thing as trading, couldn't help but ask.

"My lord, I just saw the other person's mind. ”

Looking at the curious Rocky, the depression that Erin had been pressing on her chest these days had finally eased a lot.

The last negotiation with the Teal Chamber of Commerce made her go back and she didn't sleep for a few nights, she never thought that she would lose so badly, although Rocky didn't complain about her in this matter, but Erin couldn't get past herself.

Her strength, as well as her pride, can't accept a fiasco, so she has a lot of energy for the Philosopher's Stone trade, and she must show herself well in front of Rocky.

It's not that Eilean values Rocky's opinion of herself, it's that she won't allow others to look down on her!

"Hehe, it seems that Lord Voss's recommendation is indeed not wrong. ”

Seeing Erin's confident appearance and becoming the proud aristocratic girl she used to be, Rocky was relieved, as for the specific details of the transaction, what kind of means Erin used, he didn't really care.

"By the way, how much money do you have in the city now?"

Thinking that he had just sold the cloth in the city a few days ago, and now he had sold the Philosopher's Stone, Rocky felt that he should have a lot of money, right?

"My lord, there are about 67,000 gold coins in the city right now. ”

As a financial officer, Erin naturally knows a lot about the finances of Thunder Eagle City, so she directly gave a specific figure.

It's just that after saying this number, she was still a little jubilant before, but she didn't smile, and the expression on her face turned serious: "My lord, winter is coming soon, and you have to think about buying food." ”

"The last time we traded with the Azure Chamber of Commerce, it shows that the other party really intends to take advantage of the war in Blue Wolf City as an opportunity to raise prices, so the price of yarn will rise, and the price of food sold to us in the next few days will also rise. ”

And ...... The increase will not be low. ”

Through the increase in the price of yarn by the Azure Chamber of Commerce, it is enough to see that the other party will not sell grain at the original price, and the price of grain will inevitably rise.

What's more, Rocky had gladly accepted the price of yarn before, and his approach was undoubtedly a signal to the Azure Chamber of Commerce, that is, Thunder Eagle City was rich! So the other party would not only raise the price of grain, but the increase would definitely not be low!

As a financial officer, Erin knows this kind of thing better than anyone else, so she has to remind Rocky and remind him not to think that Thunder Eagle City can sit back and relax with tens of thousands of gold coins, I'm afraid that when it comes to need, these sixty or seventy thousand gold coins will not be enough at all!

"I know, how could I possibly forget such a thing. ”

"But don't worry, I know this matter in my heart, and you'll know it when you get to the Nightless God City. ”

However, in the face of Irene's reminder, Rocky showed a disapproving attitude, and let her leave without waiting for Erin to continue to speak, which made Erin extremely depressed, and even felt that Rocky got carried away because he had a few money.

In fact, not only her, but even Lilia beside Rocky frowned after this, and couldn't help but say to Rocky:

"You should let Erin finish speaking, she is really doing it for your own good this time. ”

"I know. ”

Glancing at Lilia, who was frowning, Rocky smiled slightly, and then said for no reason:

"Lilia, are you interested in practicing martial arts with me?"
