Chapter 961 Treasures are not for use! But it’s for collection!
After resting in the imperial capital for two days.
Andy, Finn, and Mr. Cecil also quickly said goodbye to Mr. Brand and Mr. Holland, and embarked on the journey back to the territory.
In the past, the period of merit exchange during the pioneering war.
The Claude and Cecil families also exchanged a small territory in the north.
At this point in time, it is no longer flooded by the tide.
So now is the last time to channel the active earth element and drink the hot soup at the end of the Year of Tides!
As for the war that the Human Alliance is still going on.
Although Mr. Cecil was very interested at first.
But after hearing Brand’s arrogant speech.
He thought about it carefully and found that it was right!
——If you want to obtain demon captives for research, you really don’t have to set foot on the battlefield!
The armies of various countries fought so fiercely with the Bergman Kingdom and the Demon Tribe on the battlefield.
If they offer to sponsor some military expenses, no one will refuse!
In this way, if they ask for some demon prisoners, who will not give them face?
——Anyway, the battlefield is full of demons, just go with the flow!
As for the inheritance of the demon clan, it is obviously not easy to obtain.
The biggest problem is the language barrier.
And those demons who have learned human language and are responsible for communicating with the Bergman Kingdom.
If you think about it, you will know that it is not that easy to capture.
From this point of view, even if they take the mage group and take the risk to join the battle.
I'm afraid it won't be much more than what you get from sponsoring the rear. At most, it's just a little more imperial merit.
But the redemption of meritorious service in the pioneering war ended not long ago.
In terms of merit alone, they are indeed not lacking in much!
Under such consideration, Mr. Cecil decided to keep the same pace as Brand and continue to focus on domestic development and maritime trade with the Elf Forest.
…………
One afternoon after seeing off the three Mr. Chesil.
The work of improving the space teleportation array has reached a new level.
After a while of debugging the magic circle in the underground space of the mansion.
Brand and Celine took out the blank screen.
Try sending a communication request to Ernst.
After a short period of waiting.
What made the two of them a little happy was:
Ernst appeared directly in the empty screen in front of them.
After briefly looking at Brand and Celine standing opposite.
Ernst also quickly said in surprise:
"Brand, and little Celine?
It seems that you have succeeded?
The wedding time Have you decided?”
Hearing this question, Brand responded with a smile:
"Not yet, but it will only be a matter of these two months!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Celine also joked and said:
"The matter of not transmitting the space teleportation circle Get it done, invite this old man over, we don’t dare to set the time at will!”
Question, Ernst shrugged helplessly:
“It seems that I am dragging you down! .
But for the sake of the gift I gave you, you might as well forgive me! ”
Speaking of the gift.
Brand quickly wanted to ask about the specific effects of the potion Ernst gave him.
But just thought When asking, Celine spoke first:
“Let’s stop chatting here.
Next, let's try to see if the magic projection can work properly.
I now activate the rune circle here, and grandpa, you also activate the login device I gave you before. "
Hearing this, Brand temporarily suppressed the doubts in his heart and waited quietly.
And Ernst nodded quickly, and then took out a
Celine also started to operate the space teleportation circle.
Soon, as the rune circle began to move further.
A shadow that was identical to Ernst appeared in front of them.
It doesn’t look much different from the real person to the naked eye.
But if you distinguish it carefully, you can still see that its body shape is slightly blurry.
This phantom was a little stunned at first, and then quickly became more agile.
After taking a few steps and getting used to it.
Ernst’s shadow said:
“It turns out to be a partial projection of consciousness, and it can also touch objects!
In order to achieve such an effect, You must have been careless, right?”
While speaking, Ernst’s shadow reached out to the table beside him and tentatively picked up a teacup, then tentatively shook Brand’s hand. Seeing this, he held the palm of Ernst's shadow.
Brand also explained:
"Although there are indeed some troubles, we must make Grandpa Ernst more involved in our wedding!"
Hearing this, the smile on Ernst's face couldn't help but widen a little.
Then he praised:
"As expected of my granddaughter and grandson-in-law!"
After saying this, Ernst changed the topic again and asked:
"But then again, if you want to achieve And to maintain such an effect, it must continue to consume a lot of resources, right?”
As he said this, Ernst also turned to look at the space formation next to him.
After seeing a pile of concentrated magic storage crystals piled up in one location of the magic circle.
Ernst couldn't help but sigh that Brand and Celine were really wealthy!
He is indeed Ernst’s descendant and has inherited his [rich] merits!
But then, Ernst’s eyes suddenly froze!
——He saw several fist-sized "stones" in the pile of concentrated magic storage crystals!
After careful identification, it was discovered that they are actually a special medium-space type of stone.
Ernst suddenly fell silent!
He could tell at a glance:
Like those concentrated magic storage crystals, these medium space stones are also consumables!
Just use the concentrated magic storage crystal as a consumable.
The production technology of this thing is relatively mature.
Although the price is not low, it is barely acceptable.
But treating this extremely rare space material as a consumable...
Even Ernst, who always boasts of being wealthy!
I can’t help but feel that my granddaughter and grandson-in-law are really a waste of money!
Immediately afterwards, Ernst silently stopped inputting magic power into the ring.
The magic shadow also disappeared all of a sudden.
Then, Ernst in the empty screen spoke earnestly to Brand and Celine:
“Little Celine, and Brand.
Having wealth is certainly a good thing!
But extravagance and wasteful behavior also need to be controlled!
Treasures are not just for use!
But it’s for collection!
Their collection value is far greater than their use value!
There are many similar negative examples in the inherited memory of our Magic Mirror Purple Dragon!
I have to talk to you today..."
Seeing Ernst, he suddenly started to preach, telling them not to be extravagant and wasteful, but to be diligent and thrifty.
Celine couldn't help but smile.
And Brand was a little stunned!
——As far as he knew, Ernst didn’t seem to be a frugal person!
After listening for a while, Brand gradually understood that Ernst was talking about those "medium space stones".
——He believes that these materials are too precious and should not be used as consumables.
Brand obviously has different views on this matter.
Back then, the generous Mr. Candelous visited the simulation world.
Before leaving, he left him a pile of "stones" piled up into a hill.
The "medium space stone" that was just used as a consumable to maintain the existence of Ernst's magical shadow.
It was just a few small stones that Brand picked up casually on that hill!
Although space materials are indeed rare, looking at the "hill" in front of you in the simulated world.
Brand also deeply feels that rarity is relative!
——At least for him, this thing is not rare at all!
Thinking of this, it seemed like it would take a long time to talk to Ernst.
Brand looked helplessly at his sister Celine, wanting her to find a way to explain.
Seeing this, Celine, who was an insider, spoke leisurely and interrupted:
"Grandpa, Brand and I still have a lot of things to do, so we will stop talking today.
Let’s talk later, goodbye!”
With that said, Celine hung up the communication and put away the empty screen.
Then he grabbed Brand's arm, who was still dazed.
While pulling Brand towards the stairs leading to the ground, he said with a smile:
“Okay! Leave Grandpa Ernst alone!
I’m bored at home. After so long, the matter of the space teleportation circle is finally settled.
Call Catherine, let’s go out to the commercial streets of the imperial capital!”
This talks about going out for shopping.
Brand also quickly put aside the matter of Ernst and the potion.
——He hasn’t gone shopping for a long time!
After returning to the ground and finding Catherine, look at the decorations throughout the home.
Brand also thought:
"Now that Grandpa Ernst's matter has been settled, we can now set a specific time for the wedding.
Go back and discuss it with the great master?"
Speaking of this matter, Xi Lin also nodded and said:
"Just listen to you!"
