In these new materials, the proportion of Langas assessors has obviously increased. Xia Duo roughly browsed through it, and felt quite complicated.
The results of these Langas boys are no worse than those of the Nese boys, and some are significantly higher by more than one grade. In the eyes of ordinary Nese people, the Langas are a group of backward barbarians.
But now it seems that this answer slapped those people hard in the face. The Langas people are backward not only because they are barbaric, but because they have not been exposed to more advanced magic.
Because the assessment questions do not involve too much specific and clear secret knowledge, they are more about testing the examiner's logic and general common sense.
In this kind of assessment, whether one is born in Nese or Langas, or at least has not received systematic education beforehand, it does not have much impact. It is more about a young man's most native qualities.
It's similar to talent.
This is enough to show that there is no absolute gap between Langas and Nese people in terms of becoming mages.
Seeing such a result, Xia Duo secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, he was planning to take care of these Langas teenagers.
After all, coming from the place where he was born and raised to a completely unfamiliar place will always be a bit uncomfortable. Even if he thinks that the Langas people are no different from the Nese people, he cannot deny the huge impact of these discomforts.
But now it seems that he also underestimated these Langas youths. After all, they were able to pass the territory's preliminary territorial citizenship test and pass the language and regulations within one year. This in itself shows that they are among the Langas people.
The best.
It is reasonable to achieve the current result, it is what they were able to achieve.
…
"After the statistics are completed, the data will be synchronized to Spire No. 1 as soon as possible."
"yes."
"Then you can continue working and I won't interrupt you."
"Goodbye, President!"
…
After leaving the personnel office, Xia Duo did not continue to the No. 1 Spire. He had not finished counting here, and it would not be faster there.
In fact, as a being who is essentially connected to the tower spirit of Spire No. 1, Sha Duo already knows that the personnel in the personnel department there have not yet entered information into the tower spirit through the database.
When the new information stopped later, it wouldn't be too late for him to check it. All he had to do was order the tower spirit to notify him immediately after receiving the information. Because it was a real-time link, he didn't have to worry about missing anything.
After returning to the study, he continued to study the subsequent system design of the floating city.
…
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Larian came and brought the flying armor that Shado wanted to the Tower of Time.
In addition to the hundred pieces of flying armor known as the "Defender's Armor" in Everesca, Larian also brought the accompanying "Defender's Shield" and "Defender's Gun".
Of course, none of this is free. Not only is it not free, the price is extremely expensive!
In the reception room, Xia Duo carefully played with a palm-sized hollow metal wristband, and from time to time activated a blue deflection shield to demonstrate various protection possibilities.
On the table next to him was a short spear that was about the same length as an adult human male's arm. The main body of the spear was dark blue, which obviously contained a high level of fine gold. At the same time, complex mithril patterns could still be seen on the surface.
Although it is a short spear, the other end can obviously be connected to a longer pole and used as a spear.
It's just that elves mostly use one-handed swords and the technique of sword chanting in melee combat. In the hands of elves, this short spear called "Guardian's Spear" is used more than an offensive weapon.
It can continuously fire lightning to attack distant enemies, or fire a high-intensity lightning beam attack in a short period of time.
"Elder Larian, can't these two types of equipment really be cheaper?"
"It really can't get any cheaper. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to sell such a powerful standard weapon to the outside world. It was only because of the previous misunderstanding between you and me that the council agreed to sell the [Defender] to the Daxia Territory.
But the price is not decided by me, I hope Lord Xia Duo can understand."
Larian didn't hesitate to blame, and Shado didn't bother to expose it. After all, once some things were said, it would look bad on everyone's face.
After thinking about it, he proposed a new plan: "Sixty thousand per set is still too expensive, especially for the Daxia collar, which is not wealthy. I wonder what Evereska thinks about the arcane crystals? Can it be possible?
Accept settlement with arcane crystals?"
If it were in China, Xia Duo would generally not have the idea of arcane crystallization. After all, the [Mithra] device would be made public in the future, and everyone would not look up until they looked down.
Xia Duo also hopes to introduce talents from other places, and what about the population? It can't be too ugly, and the other thing is to consider Iolum's views on this matter.
But for elves, there is no such thing as being ugly. As long as both parties are consensual at the time, there is no way to pursue the matter afterwards.
Furthermore, even if [Mythra] devices become rampant in the future and domestic arcane crystals are cheaper than water, such strategic resources cannot be easily exported to elves.
He probably will continue to cut leeks like he is doing now.
Of course, it may also be because of the example he has set now that future Nese mages learned to cut elves' leeks.
…
Regarding the new plan proposed by Sha Duo, Larian was full of surprise, but it didn't show it at all on his face. As an energy gem with extremely high energy density and excellent versatility, the arcane crystal was naturally not at all different from the elves.
strangeness.
Moreover, since arcane crystals can only be made by arcanists, the parts that can be exported are extremely rare. Larian only had the opportunity to obtain arcane crystals as an elder of Everesca.
If it were to be traded with arcane crystals, Larian was totally willing. After all, Everesca was now trapped in one place, and the demand for external resources was very large.
In particular, excellent resources like energy gems are not only needed for maintenance of mystery locks, but are also inseparable from daily life and production.
If a stable arcane crystallization channel can be obtained, this can even become an important bargaining chip for uniting other small countries!
Thinking of this, Larian became more cautious and did not dare to show any emotion. He just asked in a very calm tone: "I wonder how many sets of [Defenders] Lord Shado is planning to buy?"
"At least a hundred sets!"
Chateau saw that Larian was moving, so he couldn't help but report a relatively conservative number.
In fact, he would rather buy a few thousand units. It is a no-cost deal anyway. At least the territorial guards should be armed first, but if he really wants to say that, he is afraid of scaring Larian away.
Another question is whether Everesca can produce thousands of sets of [Defenders] at once.
