Chapter 494 The Sacred Artifact at the Bottom of the Box
Perfect really hates socializing, mainly because in the past when she was just a noble lady who failed to inherit the title, those greedy guys with ulterior motives It makes her feel sick to be around her all the time.
But this does not mean that an alchemist who can achieve extremely high achievements in alchemy lacks IQ and emotional intelligence.
When she is willing to spend her energy on this, Purficott can completely transform herself into a well-mannered, friendly, and even a perfect model-like social master, in the presence of many guests. Socializing in and out of the venue was easy.
Of course, at her own seventeenth birthday and adult banquet, she was the one who needed the full attention, flattery and flattery, so she did not need to have any unnecessary social interactions with other people.
As long as she wanted to, she could keep a cold face to everyone throughout the whole process, and she could also ensure that no one dared to say anything wrong in front of her.
In addition to today being her birthday, what is more important is the power, status, and the bonuses brought by her own abilities.
After all, the vast majority of the guests who can attend her birthday party today are here to ask for help from her, not to mention that many monarchs of the old world countries are waiting for her to save their countries. .
Under such a premise, even if Purficott made some excessive demands, I am afraid those guests would just hold their noses and admit it.
If it were three years ago, I am afraid that Purficott would not pay attention to any of them, and there would not even be such a banquet at all, because at that time, according to Purficott's estimation, she might At most, they can only save the millions of people in the north, and the rest will all die.
But now, with the improvement of the technology that Purficott has mastered and the increase in the total amount of resources she can use after the news of the doomsday is announced, Purficott's latest estimate is that the Light North Territory The total population that can be accommodated has risen to three million.
More than three times more than she originally expected.
The most important factor in this is none other than the art of making compressed biscuits.
Sounds outrageous? On the contrary, this is actually the most critical factor, which is food.
Perfect's original calculations that the North could only accommodate one million people were based on the fact that she could only maintain the food output grown in greenhouses through energy towers.
After all, in the apocalyptic winter, the cold can still be solved by relying on coal for heating and living underground.
But if you are hungry, you can’t really let people eat dirt, right? Even Guanyin soil doesn’t have enough to fill millions of mouths!
So in Purficott's original plan, he really only planned to ensure the survival of the million people in the north, and left the rest to fend for themselves.
However, when Purficott can use alchemy to produce food almost out of nothing, the determining factor of how many people can survive has become how many energy towers and shelters can be built. .
Under such circumstances, Purficott certainly does not mind saving more people and allowing more people to survive this doomsday crisis.
Moreover, saving more people would bring no harm to Purficott except increasing expenses.
Because the larger the population, the more it can improve and increase the overall ability of mankind to fight against the doomsday crisis, and at the same time, it can also increase the possibility of talents being born among the human group. Who can guarantee that among the people who have abandoned these plans, there is no one who has a bright idea that can greatly improve the living conditions of mankind in a doomsday crisis, or even possibly solve this doomsday crisis?
At least Purficott himself cannot guarantee that.
So in the face of the dignitaries, envoys and representatives from various countries who came to him from time to time, trying to get close to him, trying to get close to him, smiling apologetically, hoping to get help from him, Perfico Tedu tried his best to maintain a friendly attitude and listen to their appeals, and answered politely, and said that he could help them within the appropriate scope of his ability.
Of course, none of this is free.
Although Purficott is willing to help others, this does not mean that she will help those people for free.
On the one hand, it is true that we cannot help. On the other hand, it is because of the promotion of rice and the hatred of rice. Any free help will make the person being helped feel natural and think that all this is what he deserves. to ask for more.
In order to avoid things that would make him unhappy, or even involve him personally exterminating the people or forces he helped, or the country, Purficott felt that it was better to make them pay a certain price and turn this into a It would be better to have a charitable transaction.
And considering the evil sect that Perficott had been wary of before, it would definitely be right to have good relations with the ruling classes of these old world countries.
This is a world where magic and mystery exist. Do you think the seemingly groveling rulers of various countries in front of you have rich ancestors in their families, or do they have any unique skills?
At least when Purficott disclosed information about the Evil God Sect to Queen Victoria, the Queen asked Princess Anne to bring a shield that looked like it was made of cut tree stumps and A knight's sword that looked very old at first glance.
These are two magic items that are powerful enough to be called artifacts in fantasy stories, or in church parlance, they are called sacred artifacts.
They originate from a legendary monarch during the founding period of Victoria, a knight whose strength reached the legendary level.
These two pieces of equipment are the shield and sword of this legendary knight. Although it seems that the production technology was very rough back then, due to the fact that the environment at that time was far more mysterious than it is now, these two pieces of equipment still remain the same. Simple and crudely powerful.
After hundreds of years of worship, they were filled with powerful blessings of faith, turning them into two pieces of equipment powerful enough to conquer the country.
If Purficott hadn’t said that the evil god might come this time, the Queen would never have invited these two treasures from the royal family’s box.
Of course, it is also necessary to consider the factors affecting the migration of the royal family and the imperial center to the north, which makes the royal family have to bring some of the treasures in the treasure house to the north.
Now, these two powerful treasures have been installed on the God-killing Armor by Purficott, and they have been strengthened and upgraded without damaging the two holy weapons, so that It's more powerful.
After all, there is still a big gap between the magic equipment manufacturing technology during the founding period of Viktoria and Perficott's current technology.
