“If it’s true, that would be great!”

The Wind Giant Envoy floated up from his chair with excitement, seeming to be quite satisfied with the proposal.

The current production of Cloud Giants is limited by the rate at which the brains of various monsters can be obtained. If they obtain this technology, they will soon be able to surpass them.

However, after the excitement, the envoy soon remembered something else.

Technology is something that will leak out. If the cloud giant also obtains it, they will really be unable to catch up even if they try their best.

Thinking of this, he looked at Karl, weighed his tone and asked, “Then what price do we need to pay for you to help us conceal this technology temporarily?”

Seeing the other party being so understanding, Karl did not ask for too much, but replied: "Providing such convenience to customers is an after-sales service. At least until you feel it is okay to announce it, I will not disclose any information. However... there is something that I may need your help to pay attention to."

At this point, the envoy didn't know what Karl meant, so he pretended to be embarrassed and said, "Just tell me first. If it's not a big deal, we can definitely help you with it."

“It’s big, but it’s also small. You know, I’m from the Akanix Academy in the main plane. The reason I came to the Air Elemental Plane was because I was sucked into an alien vortex when I was researching the remains of the giants.

It is speculated that the area I was in at the time concealed the Eternal Furnace built by the Titan Emperor."

When Karl mentioned the word Eternal Furnace, the envoy's face showed a look of confusion. The basic education of the wind giants obviously would not tell them about the glorious history of the ancient giants.

For this reason, Carl specifically explained: "The reason why the cloud giant came to the air elemental plane is probably to pursue this ancestor's relic. It is an endless energy source and has a powerful force that can easily destroy half of the continent. Now, all forces in the main plane are coming for this."

Hearing this, Envoy Feng Juling felt his breathing become heavy.

This is obviously quite worthwhile news. If he brings this news back, the Feng Juling elders might promote him.

However, after the momentary excitement passed, the envoy became somewhat puzzled as to why Carl told him this news.

Sensing the envoy's thoughts, Carl explained at the right time: "Although I have not really touched the Eternal Furnace, I have also sensed some of its characteristics. After a long time, it has almost completely taken root in the Air Elemental Plane and cannot be easily moved.

This is good, at least no one can monopolize it, or hide it away and study it secretly.

What I want you to do is... hunt down those who try to reach the Eternal Forge. Of course, it would be even better if you can deal with the sky pirates at the same time."

Looking at the envoys below, Carl operated the mecha with a smiling expression.

This was what he had been planning since he came to Eclipse Harbor. After all, how could Carl not want revenge when he was forced to abdicate by those people from the main plane?

Giving the war beast technology to the wind giants and cloud giants is precisely to strengthen their strength so that they can send people to deal with those guys who covet the Eternal Furnace.

"This... Wouldn't it be bad if we attack directly? Wouldn't this affect your relationship with those forces?"

Some green tea fans asked this question, but even Karl could see that the envoy was eager to try.

"Of course it's fine if they're just adventuring or doing business, but many of them seem to be part-time pirates who burn, kill, and rob. It's no pity for them to die."

Considering the anti-theft attitude of the old wizards and sorcerers in Tina's hometown, it is estimated that the codes of their teleportation arrays will be difficult to be exposed. In this way, Eclipse Port becomes the air elemental plane city with the closest straight-line distance to the Eternal Furnace.

If people from the main plane want to explore, the best way is to teleport here first, and then buy an airship to reach the destination.

Although Stormwind Fortress also meets the requirements, it is a fortress itself and is heavily guarded, so Eclipse Port is more suitable.

Yes, what Carl is currently doing is trying to make Eclipse Port a place similar to the Sabaody Archipelago in One Piece.

The wind giants, cloud giants, and war beasts are the "navy" he prepared for those who covet the Eternal Furnace.

"No problem! Eclipse Harbor has been cleaning the waterway regularly. Now with the war beast technology you provided, even ordinary professionals can do this kind of work!"

Rubbing his hands, Envoy Feng Juling immediately agreed.

The Eternal Furnace has been fixed in the Elemental Plane of Air, so wouldn't it be the case that the Wind Giants, who are close to the water, would be the first to get the moon?

How could this be considered helping Carl? This was clearly about guarding their own treasure!

The common interests of both parties were determined, and both hosts and guests were very happy.

After finalizing the task of finding a necromancer for the Wind Giant, the other party left the spaceship happily.

"Aren't you afraid that Mr. Moore will come here to cause trouble for you after he finds out about this? The people from your Tower of Wonders are probably the ones who want to study the Eternal Furnace the most!"

After the Wind Giant left, Nia and the others came out of the room at the back. Although they were a little worried about Carl's behavior of disrupting the exploration of the major forces in the main plane, they generally felt very satisfied.

"Humph! It's the tragedy of a machinist to always rely on archaeology to develop technology! Master and the others will understand me!"

Carl said this with great confidence and walked out of the mecha, not feeling that there was anything wrong with his behavior.

In the corner, Mitris muttered quietly, "You don't let others look for it, but you can see it every night. You are such a hypocrite!"

Ignoring Midris's slander, Carl returned to his study, wrote a letter to Joanna, and asked Udyr to pass it on.

Main plane, Storm Bay.

Because of the Eternal Furnace, the Age of Exploration of the Air Elemental Plane began. Powerful adventurers and adventure groups accepted funding from major forces and went on funded tours to the Air Elemental Plane.

This directly led to a decrease in the number of high-level adventurers in Storm Bay.

However, thanks to its geographical advantages and reasonable system, Storm Bay is still the most popular adventure area in the main plane.

On Thursday morning, Joanna had just finished dealing with recent events and was about to go to the newly opened dessert shop nearby to taste their signature desserts, but suddenly received a letter from Carl.

Although Carl is temporarily unable to return to the main plane, Joanna still has great respect for this "old leader".

After removing the magic wax from the letter, she unfolded the letter and began to read its contents.

"Mr. Karl wants to hire Thum to go to the Eclipse Port in the Air Elemental Plane to help. The reward is to provide Verena with exclusive war beast manufacturing technology, um~"

Joanna frowned slightly and seemed to be in a rather awkward situation.

Standing up from the comfortable chair, she turned her head and looked at the street outside the city hall.

On the not-so-bustling surface, the landmark buildings are hung with portraits of the top three players in the first Spirit King Competition and the most popular player at the moment.

And in the most dazzling position, the phantom of Thum, restored using the special technology of the School of Illusion, is floating on the flag, being admired by all the Spirit Card players.

There is no doubt that the other party is now a hotshot.

"Wow~, it should be difficult to impress these stubborn card players just by using technology as a trade, at least it's hard to impress people like my brother... Oh, I heard that the spirit cards will undergo strange changes due to the different regions where the material is obtained. Even the monitor lizard spirit will be divided into northern monitor lizards and southern monitor lizards... It seems that this can be used to lure them."

Thinking of this, Joanna quickly walked out of her office.

As her personal guard, Kasha followed immediately.

"Kasha, Mr. Carl is now in the Air Elemental Plane. Do you want to go over there and take a look?"

Looking back at her cousin, Joanna asked tentatively in a chatty tone.

She knew very well that her brother and that Tumu were both avid fans of the Spirit Card Game, and in some respects, their personalities and ideas were highly consistent.

"Ah? The Elemental Plane of Air? What's so good about going to that place? I heard that it's hard to see people even after flying for hundreds of kilometers. And no one will play cards with me if I go there."

The corner of her eye twitched slightly, and Joanna felt that the last half of the sentence was the real reason why Kasha didn't want to go.

"No! Do you remember Udyr? He is now in the Elemental Plane of Air, serving as an ambassador for promoting the Spirit Cards. I heard that he is very popular among the local residents there."

As she spoke, Joanna carefully observed her cousin's expression, trying to analyze something from it.

But she failed. Kasha was in a trance and no one knew what she was thinking about. It seemed that even her answer just now was completely instinctive and she didn't think about it at all.

Seeing this, Joanna puffed up her cheeks slightly, then pretended to sigh and said, "Ah~, I heard that the environment over there is very different from the main plane, and the monster materials over there can be used to make quite unique spirit cards~"

"What! Really?"*2 Almost immediately after Joanna finished her sigh, two voices rang out in unison around her.

Joanna turned around and saw that the other voice came from the person she was going to persuade - Tum.

For some unknown reason, this elf was dressed so tightly, as if he was afraid of being recognized by others.

But his companion betrayed his identity.

"Ah! Ms. Kasha, Mr. Thum, good morning!"

Without rushing to explain the matters related to the Spirit Card, Joanna greeted the other party very ladylike.

The female elf Kasa also said hello, but Tum and Kasha looked at Joanna eagerly, as if waiting for her to continue the previous topic.

But she still did not let the two of them get their wish. Instead, she took out Carl's letter and handed it to Kassa.

"Mr. Karl hopes to invite you to visit the Air Elemental Plane. He needs a necromancer like Mr. Tum to provide some technical support for the production of war beasts.

I think... the wind giants of the Elemental Plane of Air would be happy to provide their researchers with some monster materials unique to the Elemental Plane of Air while providing financial support.

After all, those materials are just scraps at best.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Tumu snatched the letter from Kasa's hand.

"I'll go!" (shock)
