Chapter 548 Have You Ever Heard of Amway?
After the war, Taris fell into a carnival, and all the crowds poured into the streets and began to cheer Netero's name to their heart's content - although the victory of this battle had little to do with Netero.
"Let me tell you, aren't you fighting? Why did you open the Gate of Chaos while fighting?"
Jean, who was sitting on the city wall, looked confused, because the space structure in Taris in the north was still very stable, and there had not been a Chaos Gate for more than ten years.
As a result, when it appeared this time, it was directly a medium-sized Chaos Gate.
Os, who was monitoring the Star-Moon Tower at the time, almost had a heart attack - you know, although Chaos Gates appear frequently on the southern coast of Ronitant, most of them are miniature, and there are not even many small ones. .
Os immediately contacted Jean who was far away in Ellington. After Jean hurried back, he took those people and teleported to Taris. At a glance, he saw, good guy, it turned out that he had opened the Gate of Chaos on the battlefield!
Tang En said helplessly: "Those black-armored troops were corrupted by the power of the Dark Serpent. They originally had a strong aura of chaos. After killing them, those auras of chaos gathered together and destroyed the spatial structure here. The probability of the Gate of Chaos is certainly high."
Fortunately, Gene and the others arrived this time, otherwise Twain would have suppressed the Gate of Chaos and would not have been able to go back and bring people over. Taris would have been destroyed by the chaos creatures and turned into ruins if he had not been destroyed by the black-armored army.
"Next time something like this happens, remember to say hello in advance, otherwise you will be scared to death sooner or later."
Jean opened the portal while nagging: "Let's go."
"Won't you guys stay and take a rest?"
Nitro persuaded him to stay. He wanted to hold a dinner at the Lord's Mansion to entertain the mages of the Silver City and the warriors of Ellington.
But Gene declined.
"Thank you for your kindness. We can't relax at the Star-Moon Tower. We have to go back and continue working."
Jean curled his lips and returned with the mage group.
Nitro looked at Tang En: "What about you?"
"You don't seem sincere at first glance, so let's forget it here."
Tang En waved his hand and refused: "I still have unresolved matters here. If you want to celebrate, wait until the matter is completely over before celebrating."
Now that we have learned the information about the Dark Snake, we should deal with them as soon as possible to avoid long nights and nightmares. If they get the news and run away, things will be in trouble again.
Nitro heard Tang En mention this matter, so he didn't force it: "Then I'll wait for your good news."
"Trust me, it won't take long."
Tang En opened the portal with a smile, and then the warriors of the majestic Ellington Guard lined up and passed through the portal one by one.
Watching Tang En teleporting nearly four thousand people away without a breath, Nitro's eyelids trembled again and again. With this kind of magic control ability and the size of the magic pool... he must have been promoted to a legend.
Then came the wild mages, and then the Phoenix mercenary group...
"etc?"
Tang En was stunned: "Why are you going back to Ellington? There is a banquet here, and the payment hasn't been settled yet."
"Look at me!"
Kaa slapped his forehead and said with a smile: "Suddenly seeing the portal, I couldn't help but want to get in..."
Are you cats...
"Don't forget what you said!"
Before Vanilla entered the portal, she turned to Ursa and Mengkarn and warned them. The two guys were stunned.
"What did you promise her..."
"I seem to have forgotten..."
Vanilla was immediately furious: "We agreed to invite me to come with us when we return to the Ren Empire!"
"Oh! Yes! That's right!"
Meng Kahn patted his chest and promised: "Well, we will write to you! Don't worry!"
Vanilla lowered her ears feebly: "You look completely unreliable..."
Tang En promised Vanilla a long time ago that she could leave at any time if she wanted to, but she never found the opportunity. In addition, civil strife broke out in the Illrus Empire, and it was very conspicuous for her to run around as an orc, so she stayed in Ellington. .
Now things in the Illrus Empire have almost calmed down. It happened that Ursa and Mengkarn were chatting and said that they planned to go home for a visit soon, so Vanilla was moved and decided to go with them then.
After repeating it again, Vanilla also stepped into the portal.
"Then, I'll take my leave now."
Tang En nodded, turned around and entered the portal, returning to Ellington.
"Lord Lord!"
"Twain!"
Fiona and Alleria came forward: "How is the situation?"
"Very good. The Combine Harvester is surprisingly powerful when used on the battlefield."
Tang En nodded and confirmed the results of the combine harvester: "The door of chaos has been closed, and all those chaotic creatures have been purified."
"That's good!"
Alleria breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What's the battle damage like?"
Tang En said a little melancholy: "After the war, statistics show that one hundred and twelve soldiers were killed, of which twenty-two were driving combine harvesters. They were dragged out of the cockpit by chaotic creatures and devoured to death. The rest were mostly Most of them died in the Chaos Beam strafing, and the number of casualties in frontal combat was the least."
Since the initial strength level of the chaotic creatures that emerged from the medium-sized Chaos Gate is almost equivalent to between silver level and gold level, the professional levels of these Apocalypse warriors are very low. Coupled with the effects of various equipment and spell buffs, their strength It is also at this level, so it is difficult for chaotic creatures to strengthen their own strength. Warriors are much less stressed when fighting against chaotic creatures.
Alleria comforted Tang En: "Sacrifices are inevitable in war. After Depp counts those members, we will do our best to provide for their families."
"It's not that I'm sad."
Tang En shook his head. With the Hall of Valor's plan, the souls of the soldiers who died in the battle will still be recovered. They can still meet their families at that time, and there is no need to be too sad. The reason why he is in such a low mood is because this time it is only a medium-sized one. The Gate of Chaos has already suffered so many battle losses. When the time comes to encounter a large Chaos Gate, even a super large or giant Chaos Gate, can the current manpower be able to withstand the pressure?
It's simply impossible!
Expand the army!
Next, we must expand our army as soon as possible!
It is not only necessary to expand the army, but also to speed up various research progress.
The mass production of RPG, the mass production of Harley and Comet motorcycles, the mass production of bullets, the mass production plan of magic pistols, the further development of magic stone, the research and development of special warheads, and even the research and development of armored combat tanks are all. It needs to be put on the agenda.
Thinking of this, Tang En perked up and gained some energy.
The previous progress was too slow, partly because the industrial base was too weak, and partly because of a lack of manpower.
And now, after fighting this war, more than fifty wild mages have been harvested. These wild mages can master the know-how of the magic industry with a little training and can become Tang En's technical talent reserve. With their participation, research and development The progress will be greatly accelerated, and multiple research and development routes can be added at the same time, saving a lot of time.
The problem of weak industrial foundation has now begun to improve. The birth of the Engineer Master Glasses has broadened the horizons of engineers and researchers, making them notice the importance of processing accuracy. With the foundation of dwarf technology, processing accuracy will soon improve by leaps and bounds. The improvement does not require any nano-level processing technology that can break through the millimeter boundary and achieve micron-level processing accuracy. The failure rate and wear index of many things will drop to an acceptable level.
In this area, Tang En is completely counting on the efficiency of Cloteau. With Ellington's technical route, it is impossible to achieve micron-level processing technology without climbing the Seiko and Specialization skill tree for several years.
"Fiona... Oh, Ollie, remember, Ellington will expand the army next and recruit young people who are willing to join the army. The main battle force plus reserves currently have a total of 6,000 people. It will be temporarily expanded to 10,000 people. Bar."
Tang En groped his chin, thinking that in the future, the armored regiment and the artillery regiment would be allocated on a one-to-one basis. The quota of two thousand people should be enough for the time being.
"Also, Fiona, allocate funds to the Engineering Research Institute. Make a note that the research institute needs to work harder. I will arrange for them the technologies that need to be tackled next."
After a pause, Tang En added: "Those wild mages will also be arranged to enter the Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute later. Their salary... will depend on their subsequent performance in the institute."
After Fiona wrote it down, she frowned and asked, "Are you sure they are willing to work there?"
Tang En smiled slightly and said, "I will communicate with them."
They don't want to go? It's very simple, if you don't want to go, get out. Ellington doesn't raise useless people.
If you want to stay in Ellington to read those magic classics, if you want to use the power of the magic source to practice magic, if you want to obtain rare magic materials from the elves, or even exchange magic experiences with the elves, you must accept Ellington's conditions. , exert your own value.
Even though they were unwilling to accept the control of the City of Silver, they ended up living under the surveillance of the City of Silver. Now they should have understood that there is no absolute freedom in this world.
Of course, Tang En will not let those magicians live so freely. A highly binding magic contract is indispensable. Not only can it be kept secret effectively, but it can also allow them to put away their messy thoughts and accept it honestly. Tang En's oppression...ah, it's employment.
While Tang En was pondering over the contents of the contract, he was making shrewd calculations.
These wild mages also have connections with each other. After all, they are independent of the jurisdiction of the City of Silver and do not have access to many expensive and rare magic materials, so they spontaneously form a small circle to exchange what they need with each other.
After the wild mages here in Ellington discover the benefits of Ellington, they will probably run away with red eyes as soon as Tang En promises Nora to join personally and give him rare magic books or magic materials and magic equipment. Pull people in, and by that time, Ellington will become a paradise for wild mages. What talent do you want that you don't have?
Tang En snapped his fingers and turned this pyramid scheme on... ah! It's an Amway plan, that's it.
