Cogwheel City is the most similar city that Donn has seen on Earth in the two months he has seen in Purandal.

The vast metropolis is full of steampunk style, with huge air-exposed structures, black-lubed gears, scorching steam pipes, and a familiar smog in the air......

If it weren't for the fact that the architectural style of the gnomes was very different from that of humans, Donn would have thought that he had arrived in Europe in the eighteenth century.

Don found coal and oil in Gear City that the dwarves didn't find there, and it was because of the dwarves' exploitation and use of these fossil fuels that the city was full of pollution and smog.

Don had no intention of stopping the development of the gnomes, but for him, the Magic Crystal was a clean alternative to coal and oil, and the total reserves of this strange thing in Plandal far exceeded that of coal and oil, and in Donn's opinion, the Magic Crystal was the greatest treasure in the world.

"You're interested in blackstone and black oil?"

Krotto noticed Donn's gaze: "Humans don't seem to have discovered the value of it, these two things are very cheap, but they burn very well, they can bring a lot of heat, and the steam engine is very convenient to use." ”

"Blackstone? Black oil? Oh! ”

Donn shook his head, "Actually, I know the value of both things, but I don't like them - seriously, because they burn and the air sucks!" ”

Kloto laughed, "We kind of like the taste." ”

"I hope you don't get any strange illness, it smells really bad."

"We're already figuring out a way, but unfortunately we haven't found the perfect replacement yet. In the beginning, the ancestors also used black stone and black oil as fuel. However, in the records of the excavations of the ruins. They then found a stable and efficient source of energy, and perhaps until we find that energy, what you call the magic drive is a good idea. ”

"Let's work together."

"Speaking of which, we've been working on how to use other means to activate the energy in the Mana Crystal, but the only result right now is-"

Before Kloto could finish speaking, he heard a muffled sound of "boom" in the distance, and Kloto shrugged: "As you can see, the only result is to turn the magic crystal into a bomb. If you can't let the magic crystal, it will be difficult to release the energy inside stably. ”

"Some devices use the energy of the magic crystal, but after we restore it, we haven't figured out why they can steadily extract the energy of the magic crystal, and now we are reversely decomposing, hoping to figure out this problem."

"If we can solve this problem, new energy sources will not be a problem."

Don nodded in agreement, dwarfs actually have more advantages than humans on Earth, and this world has abundant resources for them to use. No race competes with them, and they have the relics of their ancestors to unearth. They can also master technology that is far beyond the current level of technology, which is very helpful for their development.

Donn didn't stay long in Gear City, partly because the air was terrible, and partly because Cloto was so enthusiastic that he wanted to marry the dwarf beauties and settle down in Gear City right away.

After Tang En hurriedly set up the teleportation array, he used the teleportation technique to return to Forge.

He didn't directly connect the teleportation array in Gear City with the teleportation array in Forge, but planned to transit through Ellington.

He is not a selfless person, since Plantal's teleportation array technology has been lost, then this is the technology he has mastered, of course, to maximize the value of it.

He plans to build Ellington into a teleportation station, and all those who pass through the teleportation must pass through Ellington, so that as he develops, a steady stream of people will gather in Ellington, and many people who see business opportunities will also gather in Ellington, and over time it will become a bustling commercial city.

Until then, Donn, of course, has to hold Ellington firmly in his hands.

Don spent an hour at Forged Hammer and made his first deal with Durandon to buy a batch of finished copper ingots, which he teleported back to Ellington.

After returning to Ellington, Donn made his way to the Grand Plaza, which was under construction.

This large square is the center of Ellington that he planned, and it is also the transportation hub and transfer station in the future, and the area around the square Don has already made his own plans, most of which will be his key industries in the future, leaving a small part for future partners.

"Your Lord!"

Uncle Depp, who was carrying the boulder on his shoulder, was helping those people with the construction, and when he saw Donne, he immediately came over to salute, and the huge stone almost hit Don in the face.

This is what Elsa meant, since Ellington is so busy now, then the people of the guard can't be idle, just enough to combine exercise and construction work.

"No need to be polite, go get busy."

Tang En waved his hand, and then began to build the teleportation array.

Ellington's teleportation array is a teleportation hub, of course, the quality must be reliable, Don originally wanted to do it in one step, but after taking out the astral crystal, he hesitated for a moment and put it back.

Ellington's strength is still too weak now, and if someone covets the teleportation array, he will lose more than he gains by dismantling things.

So in the end, Tang En first arranged an ordinary teleportation array, the quality was only slightly better than Forgehammer Forges and Gear City, and then conveniently arranged an alarm magic array, and the teleportation array could notify him at any time if it was in danger.

After carving the spatial coordinates of Forgehammer Fort and Gear City into the core of the teleportation array, Tang En activated the teleportation array, and the runes on the teleportation array of Forges Forges and Gear City in the distance immediately lit up, resonating with each other and beginning to establish a stable spatial channel.

After the spatial passage is established, the space door will not be opened directly, and the magic crystals on the teleportation array only maintain the spatial passage, and the teleportation target needs to consume the magic crystals by itself when teleporting.

Will I be able to collect tolls in the future?

Tang Enmo rubbed his chin and got inspiration from the online game, of course, his own people can be exempted from tolls, but what about others in the future...... Shouldn't it be too much to charge double the amount of mana crystals consumed for teleportation?

It's completely doable!

Don clapped his hands and laughed.

If Ellington's teleportation array extends in all directions and becomes a transportation hub in the future, then in the future, it will be easy to make money just sitting at home and collecting teleportation fees.

Of course, before that, it is more important to have the strength to hold this teleportation array, otherwise a domineering strong man will directly drive people away and collect protection money by himself, isn't that a wedding dress for others?

"But don't think about it so much now, let's develop slowly."

Tang En is not in a hurry now, because these three teleportation arrays have been secretly manipulated by him, and only those who have left mana marks on their bodies can use them, and so far there are not many people who have been left by him.

"The mana mark is still too troublesome, and it can be improved in the later stage, adding an identification system to the teleportation array, and the teleportation array can only be used when Ellington handles a stored value card...... Well, I'm a genius! ”

Tang En became narcissistic again, and at this time, the light on the teleportation array next to him flashed, and a short figure appeared on the teleportation array.

"This is Ellington?"

"Klotto!?"

"Hehe, seeing that the teleportation array is activated, I can't wait to come and have a look."

Klotto looked at the busy construction scene around him and was a little surprised: "Your territory ...... It doesn't seem to have been built yet? ”

"No, it was originally a small town, but I felt that the space for development was too limited, so I re-planned it before it was developed, and now it is being rebuilt."

Donn shrugged: "As you can see, it is under construction now, and it is estimated that it will be able to be built before the harvest moon comes, after all, there were not many buildings in Ellington originally." ”

"Yes, very far-sighted, the planning of Gear City is also very unreasonable, but I have no way to re-plan now, so I can only slowly transform it into regions."

While Krotto and Don were chatting, there was movement in the teleportation array next to them, and this time it was the three of them who came, such as Durandon, Brian, and Albert.

"You're one step ahead of me!"

Durandon was taken aback when he saw Cloto.

Croto said proudly: "Gnomes are always at the forefront!" ”

"Is this Ellington? It looks like it's lively. ”

Albert looked around, and the people around him were busy, tired and panting, but they all had smiles on their faces.

"Of course," Brian boasted triumphantly, "you don't know how lifeless it was here before the big brother came, and when the big brother came, it was immediately rejuvenated, and I think soon Ellington would become a big city in the kingdom of men." ”

"What are you proud of as a dwarf!"

Durandon's face darkened: "This is not your territory!" ”

"The eldest brother and I are like a family, and his territory is of course my territory, not to mention that there is also a lot of credit to me! Did you see the hammers they used to smash stones? I built it! ”

Durandon and Alberon couldn't bear to look at each other: "After so many years, your forging skills are still so bad...... It's just a show off among humans. ”

"Humph! Wait and see! There are times when you are shocked! ”

Brian pouted, if they saw those machines, they might be shocked!

At this time, Don noticed that Fiona was waving to him from the window, so he said, "Brian, you can show them around, Fiona seems to have something to do with me." ”

"Leave it to me!"

Brian finally laughed, "Well, welcome to Ellington!" Then it's time to witness the miracle! (To be continued.) )
