The first trial operation of the ten short-distance teleportation circles built by Roland in Redborough was a complete success.
Some Redborough officials were unhappy when they entered the teleportation circle and saw the national emblem of the Roland Empire as well as the slogan, but they didn’t say much in the end.
They might be the financial backers and Party A, but things were different now.
In just half a month, the Roland Empire used its strength to show the entire universe that it wasn’t to be messed with. Not only did they make no mistakes, but they were highly praised.
Roland was touted by the media as a hero who rescued the natives of Bewatt Star from the evil lizardmen. They firmly occupied the moral high ground and gained a lot of favorability.
The natives of Bewatt Star had become a race that was highly sought after in the universe due to their cute appearance.
Now the reservations for travel to these two planets were overwhelming, especially the Roland Empire on Escher Star.
After all, Bewatt Star was a war zone and safety couldn’t be guaranteed. Escher Star was different. It was the territory of the Roland Empire. There might be some strange beasts that hadn’t been cleared, but it shouldn’t be a big problem.
Combine this with the information released by the 10,000 person tour group and those who were originally hesitant now chose the Roland Empire without hesitation.
Orders for short-distance teleportation circles had already been scheduled until next year.
The officials who previously went against all odds and placed orders with the Roland Empire to seek cooperation had recently become proud of themselves.
It was useless no matter how much the opposition hated it. They even had to put on an act in front of Roland’s magic circle masters.
After all, no matter how much they fought among themselves, they had to be clear-headed when facing the outside world.
After this thunderous war, any nation that wanted to cause trouble for the Roland Empire would have to consider whether it would follow the footsteps of Bewatt Star.
They were government officials of Redborough. They had come this far and naturally knew how to adapt to the situation.
So…
The teleportation circle was indeed built by the Roland Empire. There was nothing wrong with using their own logo.
No matter how uncomfortable these officials felt, they could only comfort themselves in this way. Of course, they were soon shocked and impressed by the convenience of the teleportation circle.
These ten teleportation circles were built at various transportation hubs in the central area. Each one was successfully connected to form a huge transportation network.
People who entered the teleportation circle only needed to release their mental strength and focus it on a connected point to activate the teleportation circle, transferring all objects on the teleportation circle to the other corresponding teleportation circle.
The operator was naturally dispatched by Redborough. After being trained by Su Lin and the others, he was able to hold a certificate and take up his post.
This was also what Su Mo found interesting.
Technological civilization and magical civilization were two different power systems, but they had something in common. It was mental strength.
But he could understand it. After all, this was a game and it was normal to have common aspects in strength. This would also lower the threshold for changing factions in the future.
In short, after the instructions, these local operators all mastered the method of using the teleportation circle. Roland no longer needed to send elementalists to guard it.
Chi Yu’s group didn’t teach them more advanced skills such as changing the teleportation points.
On the one hand, they wanted to keep something in reserve. On the other hand, it was useless even when taught. This was the ability of a magic circle master. Ordinary elementalists couldn’t do it, let alone these aliens.
Looking at the officials from Redborough who lost their composure after walking out of the teleportation circles, Su Mo couldn’t help adding another sentence in his heart.
‘They are ignorant aliens.’
In fact, it wasn’t the officials fault for being ignorant. They had heard about the wonders of the teleportation circle, but seeing was believing…
After actually experiencing it, almost everyone fell in love with this means of teleportation.
A journey that used to take several hours now took one or two minutes. It was no different from teleportation!
Such a powerful tool, if managed well, could definitely revitalize the economy of a region and play a life-saving role in certain special circumstances.
The president of Redborough was grinning from ear to ear. This was an order he personally approved and it would become one of his political achievements. It might even give him some support in his next election.
After the great success of the teleportation circle, he made a prompt decision and went to find Su Lin and the others with a shameless face. He hoped they would stay in Redborough and take more orders.
He wanted to add another 20 teleportation circles, striving to connect all places on Capital Star.
However, Su Lin and the other two rejected him and suggested that he contact Roland’s officials. They had no say in accepting follow-up orders.
The president of Redborough was forced to express his willingness to negotiate with the person in charge of Roland through the Interstellar Alliance.
Then they were told that according to the current order volume, they might not be able to get a place for a while unless Roland was willing to send more magic circle masters.
The president was so regretful.
If only he had ordered a few more. He originally thought ten was a lot, but now he felt…
Such a good thing was worth buying no matter how many he bought!
Unfortunately, Su Lin and Chi Yu ignored him, let alone Su Mo.
Since he unlocked the interactive action of kissing, the relationship between him and Chi Yu quickly heated up. Naturally, whatever Chi Yu said was his business. No matter how good the mission rewards, they were nothing in his eyes.
Su Lin and Chi Yu were anxious to return to Roland. It wasn’t because they had any objection to Redborough, but mainly because they felt that their elemental power seemed to be getting weaker as time went by.
Skills that used to be easily performed now had a noticeable lag.
Reflected in their status bar was a non-fatal debuff: After leaving Escher Star for a month, elemental perception is weakened by 1%.
Fortunately, according to the notes, this debuff would disappear as long as they returned to Escher Star.
For elementalists like Su Lin and Chi Yu, elements were their most important partners and they naturally couldn’t tolerate such things. Therefore, without receiving instructions from His Majesty, they had no intention of staying in Redborough.
Seeing that they couldn’t be kept, the people of Redborough didn’t dare to force it. Finally, they could only send the group onto the spaceship.
Seeing this spaceship taking off and gradually disappearing into the sky, the originally attentive Redborough official suddenly changed his expression.
Bah, what’s so great about a teleportation circle?
So what if you have magical powers?
Now in the final analysis, technological civilizations had the final say in the interstellar world. No matter how special the magical civilization, it wasn’t mainstream. Sooner or later, technological civilization would find a way to defeat magic!
Su Lin’s group had no idea of the Redborough official’s little thoughts. They took a spaceship to a nearby asteroid and landed there. Then Su Lin turned himself and Chi Yu into cards before asking Su Mo to commit suicide to take them back to the city.
The first Star E-sports Competition was just coming to an end when they came back. On the day of the final, the entire Internet was boiling and it became an event that attracted national attention.
Even the major TV stations of the Roland Empire reported this grand event.
As Val finished a day’s work and returned to the bedroom, she saw her son sitting in front of the light screen, holding a snow-white cat in his arms. Both man and cat were watching the competition seriously.
The boy was already 13 years old. He still looked childish, but he had grown a lot taller and the baby fat on his face had disappeared, revealing a handsome outline.
Seeing her son like this, Val showed a relieved and loving smile on her face. She walked over gently, reached out and touched the boy’s black hair. Then she sat down and watched the competition with him.
No matter how busy she was every day, she would take some time to accompany her son to make up for the ten years of missing time.
Joan was also very sensible. He was particularly well-behaved and had his own opinions. His biggest wish was to protect every important person around him and let them always be well.
In order to achieve this wish, he practiced and studied hard every day. Even though he had a noble status, he rarely slacked off and had almost no time for fun.
Val was heartbroken when she first learned how hard this child’s training was.
Fortunately, her son’s efforts paid off. He had now reached the strength of three and a half stars. He was a genius considering his age.
Looking at her son’s handsome features, Val could already imagine how many little girls would like him when he grew up. After all, his face was impeccable.
Just as Val was about to speak, her communicator rang. She took a look and saw that it was Ding Mingyu.
It was so late. Why was he looking for her?
Val couldn’t help glancing at Joan. She saw the child suddenly reach out and pat her shoulder, saying in a condescending tone, “Hurry up and answer it. Don’t keep Uncle Ding waiting anxiously.”
In the past two years, Joan’s way of addressing Dr Ding Mingyu had been constantly changing. At first it was Grandpa Ding and now Uncle Ding.
He looked at Val and said seriously, “Mom, I just hope you can be happy.”
Val paused. She hadn’t expected her son to be so perceptive. Finally, she reached out and rubbed his head vigorously. “This is a matter between us adults. I will handle it.”
Then she got up and answered Ding Mingyu’s call.
Ding Mingyu was now completely different from when he first arrived at the Roland Empire.
After becoming an elementalist, he practiced very hard after work every day. As his strength gradually increased, his originally silver hair had now turned back to black and the wrinkles on his face were miraculously smoothed out.
Val hadn’t communicated with Ding Mingyu for a long time. Once he appeared on the light screen, she couldn’t help being stunned when she saw him for the first time.
Dr Ding appeared on the communicator, wearing a white coat and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He was elegant and dignified, just like when the two of them first met.
“Your Highness Val, are you free to come to the research institute now?” Dr Ding’s face was filled with rare excitement.
“What’s wrong?” Val asked.
The man smiled and said, “We have successfully developed a mecha and I want to share it with you as soon as possible!”
