Chapter 92 Wizard Tower (Part 3)

"You can come and take a look at the goods if you have time."

"I definitely have time, but I'm not in the city center right now. Would it be convenient for me to come find you tonight?" There was some noise on the other end of the communication line.

"Okay, if I'm not at my residence, I should be at the service hall. You can contact me using the communication jack when you arrive." (Hangs up the communication jack.)

Lynn looked at the snail in his hand, which was just the right size to hold in one hand. It required the infusion of mental energy to use, which was not very friendly to people without mental energy.

It limits the applicable group directly to wizards or extraordinary professions that can use mental power. Although it consumes very little mental power and feels good to use, ordinary people and certain professions that cannot use mental power cannot use it for the time being.

If we could popularize communication devices and create a communication device that everyone can use, it might become a bestseller.

But then a problem arose: without base stations or satellites, even if communication equipment was made, it would be difficult to make contact, and the signal would be poor, unless he only wanted to make a short-range walkie-talkie.

Given time, he could certainly develop a facility similar to a base station, but base stations are easily damaged, and there are also issues with cost and coverage. Some things seem simple at first glance, but when you actually consider implementing them, you'll find a whole host of difficulties. Lynn shook his head. Sure enough, finding an easy way to make money isn't so easy. If it were really that simple, someone would have already done it.

Lynn returned to his residence. The pit that the goblins had dug in the backyard was gone, replaced by a larger square pit. On all four sides of the pit, steel bars mixed with a grayish-brown soil formed the supporting surface.

The mountain stands at the bottom of the pit. Under its manipulation, limestone, soil, and sand are like a lump of soft clay, mixed with iron powder and water on the ground. Manipulated by an invisible hand, these materials are mixed and blended in a certain proportion.

Nothing is easier for earth elements to do these things.

The mountain noticed Lynn peeking out from beside the pit. It nodded slightly as if to greet Lynn, and then continued with its work.

Lynn planned to build a large basement. If the above-ground building was too tall, it would block the light from the surrounding residents, so the above-ground building was only set to be six stories high, while the basement was set to be a full ten stories.

"Mountain, how long will the construction take approximately?"

"It will probably take about ten days," Shan said to Lynn.

Although it can manipulate soil and rock, it rarely receives such a ten-story underground structure.

It requires slow construction, layer by layer, which takes a lot of time. If it is a small house with two or three floors above ground, it can be completed in half a day, and the interior can be made very exquisite. This is the confidence of a professional earth element architect.

"Well, thank you for your hard work. You can continue with your work." Lynn returned to his house. The goblins were crowding around his house, and because of his previous orders, they didn't dare to wander around.

Moreover, the people passing by from time to time always gave them a sense of danger, which made these goblins even more timid.

Lynn thought it wasn't right for these goblins to always crowd around his house.

There isn't much space left here; the spaces are crowded together, and there are also some physiological needs.

"Hey, are you having a headache about how to settle these goblins?"

I heard a noise coming from next door.

Lynn looked up and saw the white-haired girl he had seen yesterday.

"I do have some empty space here; I can let your goblin settle in for a couple of days." The girl held up two fingers.

"That's great!" Lynn said without any hesitation.

The white-haired girl was taken aback by Lynn's immediate agreement. She paused for a moment, then said with amusement, "I haven't even stated my conditions yet, and you've already agreed so readily."

"So there were conditions? I thought it was just neighbors helping each other out," Lynn said in surprise.

The girl rolled her eyes; she didn't believe Lynn was that naive.

This guy is obviously doing it on purpose.

"Just kidding, I don't want any conditions," the girl said. "Anyway, we'll probably be neighbors for decades, so it's more comfortable to live here if we get along well with our neighbors. Speaking of which, this place is a real gem. I was actually hoping to get my hands on it, but the previous owner only left two days ago and you've already taken it."

"Where did the previous owner go?"

"I've become a full-fledged wizard, and then I moved everything I could to the inner courtyard." The girl sighed wistfully after saying this, "I wonder when I'll be able to become a full-fledged wizard."

The wizarding apprentices who used to live here have become full-fledged wizards, so this place is indeed a treasure.

The girl jumped from the balcony of the spire, which is more than ten meters high. Judging from her light and agile figure, her physical fitness must be quite good.

"Send your goblins over here, I have plenty of open space," the girl said. "By the way, my name is Ido."

"Lynn".

"Look, your goblins live here, but don't dig any holes, okay?" Ido said, pointing to a large, overgrown clearing in front of her.

Lynn estimated that this large open space was at least a dozen acres.

Such a large area is just sitting empty?

"I bought all this land! I bought a thousand-year usage right," Ido said proudly. "Let me tell you, I foresaw that the land in Demon City would become more and more expensive in the future. I'm relying on the appreciation of this land. When the price goes up, I'll sell it."

Yiduo said with some regret, "I was planning to buy your piece too, but before I could make a move, I was told that it had already been pre-ordered."

"How much did you buy?" Lynn asked curiously.

"Over there, over there, and over there too." Ido pointed to many places around her.

Lynn's expression was subtle; did she mean she had bought nearly half of the land around her?

You wouldn't guess she's a wealthy woman, and she probably has connections too, otherwise she wouldn't be able to buy so much land here.

"These goblins are your servants, right? But it's rare to raise goblins as servants." Ido put her hands behind her back and looked at the goblins.

"There's no rule that says you can only choose one race as your family member," Lynn said.

"There's no such rule, but goblins don't have much potential," Ido said. "Goblins excel in their intelligence and creativity, but humans are no less intelligent or creative, and humans also have better potential in combat professions."

"Of course, I'm talking about the average of the entire race. Every race has geniuses. Maybe a few outstanding goblin engineers will emerge from among you goblins," Ido teased.

"Then I'll accept your kind words."

After settling the goblins, Lynn instructed them not to wander off. He left the Delicious House and the movable, detachable fountain here, telling them not to leave the area or cause trouble for the owners.

Then Lynn hurriedly returned to the service hall. Watching Lynn's departing figure, Ido shook her head in boredom, "Another workaholic focused on experiments."

Back in the service lobby, Toby had informed the staff in advance, and soon a staff member brought the Wizard Tower catalog to the lounge for Lynn to look through.

Lynn stayed in the lounge until nightfall, only snapping out of his reverie when his communication beeped.

As I came out of the service hall, Jim was already waiting outside.

Lynn found a nearby pub, and the two of them each ordered a drink and sat in a private room to talk.

"Can I take a look at the alchemy works? Is the space here a bit too small?"

Jim asked.

"It doesn't matter, the space here is just right." Although Iron Serpent No. 1 is relatively long, it is not thick in diameter and can be coiled up.

Lynn took out the Rubik's Cube from the Alchemy Lab, opened a small crack, and with a flash of light, Iron Serpent No. 1 appeared in the private room.

Jim wasn't afraid. He walked over and squatted down, pressing his chubby hand against Iron Snake No. 1's head.

This sleek, silver-gray, serpentine alchemical creature, with its sleek lines and metallic-looking surface, clearly exudes a strong alchemical style.

There are two paths in alchemical creatures.

One option is to create creatures with an alchemical style.

Another approach is to conceal the strong metallic feel of the metalwork, instead using simulated leather or other materials to cover up the metallic characteristics on the surface, thus moving towards a more realistic approach.

"How's the data?" Jim asked.

Lynn handed Jim a set of data from his previous tests on the Iron Serpent I.

After reading it, Jim immediately decided, "There's a market for it."

Jim was full of confidence.

"It's good for reconnaissance or ambushes, and its defensive capabilities are adequate. It can also act as a meat shield to buy time in crucial moments. Functionally, it's fine. The main question is, how many magic stones do you want to sell it for?"

Lynn pondered for a moment, then concluded that the cost of Iron Serpent One was approximately 3 magic stones.

Yesterday, he went to the alchemy shop to look at puppets with similar functions and combat power, and the prices were basically around 5 magic stones.

"It'll be 5 coins, but if you buy two at once, you can save 1 magic stone," Lynn said.

"This price should be fine, Mr. Lynn. If it sells, I need to take a 5% cut." Jim had agreed on the cut beforehand.

Lynn agreed. It would take time for others to sell him alchemical golems, so he certainly wouldn't work for him for nothing.

How many Iron Serpent Is are you prepared to sell?

"Sell ten at a time."

Lynn currently only has thirteen of them in total, and he can't possibly sell them all without keeping a single one.

"I'll get back to you in three days at most. I happen to know a friend who needs alchemical golems, but I need you to give me control of one first so I can use it as a sample to show them its practical effects in combat," Jim said with a smile.

Lynn immediately separated one of the iron snakes and gave Jim control over it, but this control was less than that of his own.

Jim has the highest authority unless Lynn issues other orders.

When Lynn left, the bartender told her that Jim had already paid for the drinks in advance.

I have to say that so far, Lynn and Jim's interactions have been quite comfortable.

Jim was very adept at interpersonal relationships, which explains why he became a broker.

Back in the service hall.

For the next few days, Lynn stayed inside looking at the Wizard Tower's catalog. The more catalog he looked at, the clearer Lynn's understanding of the Wizard Tower became.
