Section 81. Liberty City lifts off
Chapter 850 Section 81 Liberty City lifts off
Annan thought he was rich enough, but in the past two years, he has not earned more than a tenth of what the Wilhelm lions have opened their mouths.
"We don't have that much money......"
In order to turn Liberty City into a war fortress, Annan spent a day buying supplies everywhere and draining the finances.
"It's okay, given the previous basis of cooperation, you can take credit!" "Generously" said there.
"I don't think it's about taking credit, you know Liberty City has been around for less than two years, and if it's just a little boy just walking back, then you're like a lady with a lot of charm...... Uh, I mean ......"
"I understand, so you can consider leasing it for only 100,000 gold coins at a time."
As long as......
But Annan really needs to spend 100,000 gold coins this time. If they couldn't reach the Ash Mountain Range in two days, their actions would be meaningless.
"Okay, I'll choose to rent."
The businessmen said that the support staff they sent would be available within an hour.
Annan spent 100,000 gold coins, thanks to which they were good trading partners - the credit in Liberty City did not even ask for interest.
Olmedo instigated Annan to get another small arcane core, so that Liberty City, which had expanded to 1,500 meters, would be able to take all the buildings except the harbor and farmland.
Annan exchanged a debt of 600,000 gold coins for a small arcane core and an alchemist. In the evening, the alchemist arrived.
"I'm Keeni Whiteman, an alchemist, take me where the arcane core is." The alchemist said a long list of words as soon as he arrived.
Annan led the way in front and asked the alchemist from Wilhelm curiously: "Are you the merchant's alchemist?" ”
"Yes, no, I'm a merchant's alchemist." Whiteman corrected.
Annan didn't ask "what is the difference with an alchemist", and he could guess that he would be despised if he asked this, this Whiteman alchemist looked like a guy who couldn't speak.
The heart of Liberty City is the Castle Lord's Mansion, and the core of the Castle Lord's Mansion is the Arcane Core Chamber, a hall completely encased in oriches.
The alchemist from Wilhelm first put the small arcane core he had brought with him on the Mithril base and asked for a large amount of alchemy materials.
Whiteman didn't care at all that Annan took someone to steal the school, and even took the initiative to say: "Drive the constant output of the energy of the arcane core, as long as we change the energy output appropriately, we can increase the strength of the arcane core"
"Equivalent to overload? What is the cost? ”
"Can you understand?" Whiteman looked up at Annan in surprise, "You're the smartest warlock I've ever met!" ”
If it weren't for the fact that he had to take the soldiers home and spend 100,000 gold coins, Annan would have really been complacent.
"There is no price, if the arcane core is so simple, it will be damaged, and it is not worthy of being the crystallization of the Whiteman family." Keney Whiteman proudly said, "As long as you don't overload for a month in a row, you'll be fine." ”
...... the Whiteman family?
Annan's gaze changed as he watched the alchemist's gaze change, like Elimoas's gaze when he saw a treasure.
Again, not everyone in Wilhelm has an Arcane Core...... Who else can sell arcane cores like a play, but the ancient family?
"Okay - you're good here, it's very strong, I've changed it again, and it won't be two days before you reach the Gray Mountain Range."
Keeni Whiteman stepped back from the two arcane cores, one large and one small, "Bring me some food, and I'll stay here for the rest of the day, manipulating the Floating City." ”
Annan did so and asked Abby to bring food and a bed.
It only took ten minutes for Gini Whiteman to go from beginning to end, making people wonder if this was worth 100,000 gold coins?
The answer is both valuable and not valuable. Worthlessness lies in an alchemist...... Sorcerers can do it very easily, and the value lies in the fact that no one else has this skill except for the merchant.
Annan made up his mind to build a relationship with the alchemist of the Whiteman family, and asked Abby to prepare some Liberty City specialties.
As long as the trade relationship is no longer pure, even if it is only a nine-percent discount, it corresponds to a small arcane energy core, which saves 50,000 gold coins.
During this time, Martin brought apple pie and then leaned over to Whiteman and inhaled, muttering that the taste of Wilhelm was nothing special.
Olmedo invited the last Archduke Giraldi out of Liberty City. He was the Grand Duke of the Duchy of Montabullloc, and he could not follow them to war.
Oh, and most importantly: tell Rela not to go fishing.
Finally, a new batch of about 700 foreign reinforcements was brought in, and Liberty City was ready.
……
Early in the morning of August 13.
At dawn, the inhabitants came to the streets and surrounded the city lord's mansion.
"Are you ready?"
In the castle lord's mansion, Olmedo, who had changed into a formal dress, asked Annan.
"Alright." Annan's voice was a little strange, "It's just floating in the air, don't be so nervous." ”
Olmedo looked at Annan, who was constantly taking deep breaths, and smiled knowingly: "Okay, I'm not nervous." ”
"Let's go."
Annan pushes Itilia's wheelchair and appears on the terrace of the Lord's Mansion with Ormedo.
As they appeared, the area around the crowded square became quiet.
"Ready to take off!"
As the words fell, an invisible force surged out from the depths of the earth.
Liberty City seemed to wake up from its slumber, the air around it trembled, and the ground outside the city began to tear apart and crack.
The children cried, and the crowd panicked, and some did not sit still on the ground.
The captains of the guards, scattered everywhere, shouted loudly to everyone not to worry, for there is a layer of ordsea under our feet, and the gods should not bend it.
The power from the ground continued to surge like a tidal wave, propelling the vast city-state to rise slowly.
As the floating city rises, the wind around it gradually stirs up, and they whizz through every corner of the city, bringing up patches of dust and fallen leaves. The power of the wind and the rising power of the floating city intertwine to create a wild movement.
Standing in the harbor, the people floating on the surface of the sea watched in amazement as the wind swept up the sand and dust, obscuring the outline of the floating city.
Rising higher and higher, Liberty City broke through the cage formed by the dust and was completely exposed to the early morning sun.
The surface of the buildings in the city is gilded with a layer of golden brilliance, and the wheat river that was forgotten by Annam and flows into Liberty City brings an unexpected surprise-
The Wheat River, cut off by the rise of Liberty City, resembles a silver ribbon, and the rippling river cascades down the edge of Liberty City to form a spectacular waterfall. Turning into mist, a beautiful rainbow is brought up with the refraction of the sun.
The newspaper reporter holding the Philosopher's Stone stood in the harbor to record it, and the people on the ground looked up at this scene with awe and yearning, until the cool water vapor fell on their faces, and then they suddenly woke up and burst into warm applause and cheers.
People waved hats, handkerchiefs, clothes, and shouted loudly.
Liberty City rises, obscuring the sun and shining in the sun.
