In order to get the crystal ball in Zhou Tian's hand, the high-level of the Orc Empire not only paid a lot of price, but even formed a lot of grudges with Zhou Tian because of this matter. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

That is, now that they know that Zhou Tian's background in the Dragon Clan is not small, otherwise, according to their losses, it is estimated that the high-level of the Orc Empire will not only not think about reconciling with Zhou Tian, because of their losses, those orcs are afraid that they even have the mind to fight hard with Zhou Tian.

Of course, Zhou Tian didn't know what kind of thoughts the orc empire's top brass were at the moment, but he didn't have the heart to understand. After all, for the time being, the Orc Empire has no intention of turning against him, and Zhou Tian only needs to keep peace between the two sides for a short time, and when the Orc Empire is really ready to deal with him in the future, Zhou Tian will not be afraid of the other party.

For Zhou Tian, the attitude of these elves at the moment is what he needs to care about.

After all, the Orc Empire did not dare to make a move against it, the main reason was that Zhou Tian had a deep connection with the Dragon Clan, but if it weren't for the fact that the Elf Empire had always been in contact with Zhou Tian, and the Elves were at odds with their Orc Clan, it was estimated that there was a deterrent from the Dragon Clan, but I was afraid that the high-level of the Orc Empire would not be so easy to convince it!

So let's not talk about the future, at least at this time, the Elven Empire is still a force that can be used by Zhou Tian. In this way, although it is not said that Zhou Tian needs to please those elves, at least Zhou Tian must not have a bad relationship with the other party, at least let the orc empire not be sure of his relationship with the elf empire, so that when the orc empire is ready to deal with him, it is necessary to consider the reaction of the elf empire.

In this way, even if Zhou Tian knew that it would be no good for these elves to come to him now, but after the other party took out the map, as long as the reward they asked for was not excessive, Zhou Tian really planned to admit it.

Zhou Tian's psychology was not clear to those elves, but because of his performance just now, those elves mistakenly thought that Zhou Tian did not have much affection for their elven empire. Worried about whether Zhou Tian would agree to their conditions, those elves breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Zhou Tian's words.

As a result, according to the purpose for which they came, the elves soon made their request.

"We want to know what you want these black waters to do?" The elves who were too big of a stake also knew that it was impossible for Zhou Tian to give them to them, and the general reward elf empire did not pay attention to it, according to the situation at the time, since the elf empire that was originally unlikely to accept Zhou Tian's reward had taken action, they must have their own plans.

Obviously, the Elven Empire's plan at that time was to find out the purpose of Zhou Tian's collection of oil, after all, Zhou Tian's previous performance was there, and if Zhou Tian thought that everything Zhou Tian did must have a purpose, if they could know the role of oil from his mouth, the Elven Empire might have a lot of gains when he felt it. After all, when it comes to oil production, the Elven Empire doesn't dare to say that it is the largest, but the storage capacity is definitely one of the top countries.

After countless years of accumulation, the oil in the territory of the Elven Empire has reached the point where it needs to be dealt with. As for the elves, oil doesn't seem to have any effect other than igniting fire, and the elves in charge of it are very troubled to deal with the oil. Now that he suddenly heard that Zhou Tian took the initiative to collect information about oil, this must be good news for those elves.

If oil is of great use, then their Elven Empire will have another important resource. And if the oil is just collected by Zhou Tian for some special purposes, there is no loss to the elves, and even those oils that are difficult for them to deal with can be directly traded to Zhou Tian.

Therefore, after hearing the news of Zhou Tian's bounty, the Elven Empire will take the initiative to do those things. And after doing so much, all they wanted to know at the time was whether the oil was useful.

Obviously, Zhou Tian didn't expect that the elves would ask this kind of question in advance, so when he listened to the words of those elves, Zhou Tian was inevitably stunned.

However, after reacting soon, Zhou Tianzhi did not hide that information, after all, Zhou Tian never thought that he could dominate all the oil resources in this world according to his ability. In this way, sooner or later, if people will know the effect of oil, it will not make much sense for him to hide those elves.

As a result, after listening to the words of those elves, Zhou Tian was only silent for a moment, and then introduced to those elves without concealment: "I call the black water you are talking about oil, which is a natural resource formed by living beings buried deep in the ground for a long time. It has only one function, and that is to use them as energy on certain machines. However, oil is only crude oil and needs to be processed before it can be used as an energy source. I'm just collecting this oil for experimentation, and after experimenting with how to make the corresponding refined oil, I can provide energy for some machines. ”

After listening to Zhou Tian's words, those elves were first happy, and then they showed an ugly look.

At the beginning, after listening to Zhou Tian's words, those elves were naturally very happy, oil can be used as energy, this kind of news is good news for the elf empire, or all the empires that occupy a large area. After all, oil has not been used in the world at present, and although the current world is far larger than the earth, it has also existed for longer than the earth.

In this way, the world at that time reached an astonishing amount of reserves, both oil and coal. Because the goblins had already invented the steam engine, the coal mines had already been put into use, and although the storage capacity was still staggering, no one had ever treated them as waste.

On the contrary, oil not only pollutes the environment, but also uses it in ways that have no undiscovered reason and is of no use to the living beings of the world today. In such a situation, if what Zhou Tian said is true, and oil can really be used as an energy source like coal mines, then the disposal of oil will no longer be a problem for them as before.

It's a pity that those elves were happy for a few seconds at that time, but Zhou Tian's words broke their delusions again. Zhou Tian, a person who knows the details of oil, doesn't know how to use oil, so they know that oil is a kind of energy 'person', and naturally they don't know how to use that oil.

Anyway, after Zhou Tian learned that oil is a resource, it was already good news for those elves. After all, since Zhou Tian knows the details of oil here, even if Zhou Tian does not know how to use oil for the time being, there will always be a day when he slowly researches it.

The oil itself has been treated as a 'scourge' for millions of years, and now it is not a big deal to wait a little longer to use them.

As a result, since they had already received the information they wanted from Zhou Tian, those elves who did not have much friendship with Zhou Tian themselves planned to retire at that time.

"Put away the map, now that we know about it, we won't bother anymore. Farewell!" After saying that, a group of elves saluted and planned to leave directly.

"Wait...... Wait!" How could Zhou Tian be willing to let these elves leave like this, after all, although the elves are not as specialized in research as goblins, the number of magicians in their clan is surprisingly large. How to refine oil in an industrial way Zhou Tian is not clear, but in Zhou Tian's opinion, it may be possible to refine refined oil by means of magic.

Therefore, Zhou Tian explained to those elves at that time, one reason was that in his opinion, the matter of oil could not be hidden, and since sooner or later they would know about it, it would not be a big deal to inform them of these things in advance. Another reason for Zhou Tian to make the kind of decision at that time was that Zhou Tian hoped that after knowing about the oil, those elves would be able to help in this matter, and with their help, in Zhou Tian's opinion, if he wanted to refine refined oil at that time, his hope of success would definitely be invisibly improved a lot.

It's a pity that although Zhou Tian's thoughts at that time were good, the performance of these elves at the moment was obviously not within Zhou Tian's consideration at that time.

Since those elves didn't have any intention of intervening, Zhou Tianzi, who didn't want to let go of such a good help, was ready to leave them. But it was a pity that those elves retreated very simply, and without receiving the corresponding order, they did not have any intention of having too much contact with Zhou Tian.

So, maybe the elves didn't hear Zhou Tian's shouts at that time, but they didn't take Zhou Tian's shouts seriously, as if they were all deaf at once, and in Zhou Tian's shouts at that time, those elves took care of themselves and retreated directly from Zhou Tian's territory at that time.

"A bunch of souls!"

At that time, those elves were already so obvious, and Zhou Tian could see that they had no interest in studying refined oil at all. Now that they got the information they wanted, those elves were ready to sit and wait for him to produce results here, and it was not impossible for Zhou Tian to ask those elves for help, but it was estimated that he would have to pay a lot of money to have any hope of success.

Obviously, it was certainly not worth it for Zhou Tian to pay a heavy price for asking those elves to help. After all, those elves were not the ideal partners in Zhou Tian's heart, and when he planned to go to those goblins to do research at the beginning, it was best for the elven empire to be willing to intervene at the moment, but when those elves showed no interest in what they were talking about, Zhou Tian didn't need to force them to join the gang.

After all, the situation of the elves is there, and for the elves, the magic system has penetrated into all aspects of their lives, not to mention that the oil has not yet fully studied the method of refining. Even if Zhou Tian really moved the earth's technology system to the current world, it is estimated that those elves may not give up the original magic system and switch to using technology products for the goods that Zhou Tian took out.

Therefore, from the very beginning, the importance of oil to those elves was not very great, even if Zhou Tian researched a method of refining oil here, it is estimated that the elves will at most sell oil as a resource. In addition, if you want to really let those elves use oil as energy, it depends on whether Zhou Tian's methods are superb.

In this way, since those elves were not very interested in oil at that time, it was naturally a little difficult for Zhou Tian to get the other party to participate in the study of oil refining.

It was also because Zhou Tian actually knew the reason for all this in his heart, so Zhou Tian never put his hope on those elves, but from the very beginning, he also put his mind on those goblins.

The reason why goblins were able to occupy a place in this world at the moment when their own strength was weak, and they relied on powerful scientific and technological power at that time. According to the situation of the goblins, although they have some research on power, to be honest, Zhou Tian believes that after he informs the other party of the feasibility of oil and internal combustion engines, Zhou Tian does not need to mention it at all, but I am afraid that those goblins themselves will take the initiative to conduct research in that area.

After all, the goblins need a new type of energy and power system more than Zhou Tian.

At present, the goblin technology in this world generally has two systems as power, high-end or high-demand machines use magic systems, and magic crystals or magic cores as power sources, which are also the mainstream power sources in this world. Today, when the technology has matured, its various advantages are definitely some powerful advantages that are difficult to replace, even if they are placed on the earth. Another kind of power, the goblin uses steam power, after all, the steam engine goblin has long been invented, and in many places can use this power, the goblin will use this power. Because in the current world, the price of coal mines is extremely low, so for goblins, steam power is definitely a cheap power.

However, it is clear that although the cost of steam fuel is not high, its power is not very large, and for the goblins, most of their machines are actually unable to use steam engines.

And according to the situation at that time, if the goblins knew that Zhou Tian had the concept of an internal combustion engine in his hands, then they would definitely be even more excited than Zhou Tian.

The cost of using the internal combustion engine is slightly higher than that of the steam engine, but in the current world, it is estimated that the cost difference between the two will not be much worse, after all, coal mines are not worth much in the current world, but oil is also worthless. Even compared to the occasional use of oil by the common people in the coal mines, oil is a 'scourge' to most living beings, and in that case, if the cost of refining oil is not included, the cost of using oil as an energy source is probably lower than that of a steam engine.

In this way, a new type of power that will not cost more than the steam engine, but the power is definitely stronger than the steam engine, as long as it appears, then it can immediately replace the position of the steam engine in the Goblin Empire. Even many machines that would have used a magic system will now be able to use an internal combustion engine. (To be continued.) )
