Chapter 236: Chapter 112: Auction House: Don’t Come Over Here!
The basic construction of the Demon King Territory’s drip system was already completed. It featured a simple funnel structure... how should it be explained? As long as there was water in the pipe, it would slowly drip down. It didn’t have a valve to turn it on or off.
Connected to the pipes were Water Creation Technique magic wands... one spell in the morning was enough to provide sufficient water for the farmland irrigation.
The reason it was described as "basic completion" was that ten Water Creation Technique magic wands were not enough to cover the entire farmland. In other words, the current drip field was only in the form of an experimental plot.
"Gobble gobble!"
"Wow! This is so convenient!"
But the effect was very obvious. Both the goblins and little demons were amazed by this irrigation method because it was indeed very convenient—it did not require carrying water or walking while sprinkling the water.
It also prevented the problem of overwatering or underwatering.
However, other tasks like weeding still needed to be done, but these were activities that had to be performed anyway. Overall, it still saved a lot of time... previously, one needed to stay in the farmland all day until the sun went down.
Now, the work could be completed by the afternoon, and the rest of the time, the little creatures could freely arrange their schedules... although it was said so, eight out of ten would still help other small creatures.
Yila observed the situation of the experimental plot from a distance. He was not planning to simplify the task of weeding... he did not have that ability yet, as he was still not knowledgeable about making pesticides.
*Mainly, he was afraid of poisoning the demons.*
Yila silently walked away, contemplating the next step he should take. He opened the sheepskin book in his hand that was already half filled with notes... densely packed with things to work on next.
One item included the official opening of the bathhouse... solving this needed first to increase the number of Water Creation Technique magic wands, which required purchasing wands from the Caligula Auction House.
He outright laughed... asking Yila to buy them was like telling him to rob them instead, maybe using some underhanded tactics to buy some and steal some, ultimately taking a hefty toll on the auction house.
"..."
Topps’ body was no longer suitable for continuously making Water Creation Technique wands day and night. Little Gang and the others were definitely still not proficient in making automatic magic wands.
The best outcome would be if someone could assist Topps quickly.
If that person could be chosen, it would be wonderful to bring some apprentices with a fundamental understanding of spells from the Half-demon Territory. The Demon King Territory lacked free students with a magic foundation.
Even those with a magic talent would suffice.
"Brother Yila."
"..."
"Brother Yila?"
After the second greeting, Yila looked up at Mobillas, who was greeting him, and nodded in response: "Mobillas? Do you need something?"
Mobillas awkwardly chuckled and said, "No, nothing specific. I just saw you on the way and greeted you... I was going to meet Youyou to return the remaining research funds."
As Mobillas spoke, he walked with Yila and helplessly stated: "Now, we have nothing to do; the magic experiments had mostly been completed under the ample funding. We might have applied for too much last time."
Mobillas wore an expression of ’never fought such affluent battles,’ helplessly scratching his head: "Frankly, without the original texts by our side, many experiments couldn’t proceed... perhaps we need to take them to enter the Three Towers?"
*Indeed, without the original texts and other experiment records for reference, certain research directions could easily come to a halt, leading to a lack of research topics.*
*In other words, the Witch Demons were almost idle now... right?*
"..."
*Wasn’t this perfect?!* Yila thought, joyfully stopping and saying: "Previously, Professor Topps came back with us... do you understand the cause and effect?"
Mobillas nodded and pointed towards the farmland, praising: "What an extraordinary professor... the automatic magic wand, which we all believe is the greatest creation of this era."
"Unfortunately, the True Red Tower couldn’t accept this... or rather, many wizards couldn’t accept their achievements being replaced by small automatic magic wands. As Witch Demons, we were quite fine, since mages weren’t just spellcasters."
Mobillas expressed his regret, saying: "Actually, if he had stayed at the Three Towers and received support, his accomplishments might have been higher than here in the Demon King Territory... but the outside world couldn’t accommodate him."
It seemed the Witch Demons had good impressions of Topps.
"Would you like to collaborate with Topps in developing the automatic magic wand?" Yila asked.
"Eh? Could we?"
Mobillas, who said this, revealed a surprised expression and looked at Yila with confusion: "Actually, we had this idea before, but... didn’t you assign constructs as Professor Topps’ apprentices?"
Yila didn’t plan to explain further; he just laughed... after dwelling on suitable apprentice species for so long, he didn’t realize the Witch Demons lacked research topics.
The biggest problem was now solved.
"You don’t need to return the funds... merge directly with Topps’. He should be in the basement now."
Yila said, patting Mobillas on the shoulder: "Let Topps explain the principles of the automatic magic wand to you all. Gather those interested in automatic magic wands, ready to research, and find Topps."
Seeing Mobillas’ hesitant expression, Yila calmly explained: "Don’t worry, he lacks people to communicate with now and is almost worn out. I will go with you later."
At this point, all ideas flowed smoothly; in terms of magic talent and Mana reserve... if Witch Demons weren’t qualified, few species in this world would be.
Subsequently, Yila prepared... to "buy" some metallic magic wand embryos.
