No matter what, the exploration of Krimasha magic has greatly sparked the Liches' enthusiasm for magic research. You have to admit, for a bunch of "curious babies", having a continuous stream of new knowledge pumped into their brains is the happiest moment of their "lich life".

"I didn't used to like Blood Elves much, but now I find them adorable. They have a far deeper understanding of Krimasha than us. This is very important when we are dissecting and excavating. The key is there are so many of them, which provides great convenience. Come, let me introduce an important member of ours! Andrew!"

Yes, Andrew was pushed to the front by Aikleion.

Facing a group of Liches exploding with curiosity, he could only smile awkwardly.

"H...hello everyone, I'm very happy to meet you all. My name is Andrew, a former member of the Silver Moon Knight Order. I'm now responsible for assisting with the restoration of the magical heritage from the Krimasha era."

"I heard you are very familiar with things from the Krimasha era."

"Yes..."

"How did you do it?"

"I studied before, and there are lots of materials on this in the Divine Wood Library of the Blood Elves."

"So you've been interested in this for a long time?"

"Yes."

"It's really a pity."

"Pity?"

"Yes, pity, that you're a Blood Elf with limited lifespan. This is a huge loss for magic research. Why don't we turn you into a Lich? That way you won't need to rest or eat and can roam the world of magic forever. Believe me, you won't regret it."

"Huh...?" Andrew's smile froze on his face.

Hmm... some Liches even reached out with their bone claws to touch his face, some pinched him, and all expressed disdain for his skin.

As his disciple, Turuk could only stand on the side with his head down, not daring to say or ask anything.

This is the significant showcase of the outcomes from the Krimasha legacy development in Giant Snake City.

Invited were not only almost all the human lords backed by the White Bone Holy Light Court, but also including the Blood Elves' Krimasha Relics research team and all personnel involved in the research and development, along with all the important figures of Giant Snake City.

While a group of Liches were surrounding Andrew, extolling the benefits of becoming a Lich, on the other side, as the leader of the Liches in Giant Snake City, Erin was also doing the same. It doesn't need to be described further, anyway, the Blood Elf magic masters turned pale in fright and avoided them.

In any case, the atmosphere of the interaction was very harmonious! At least that's what the Liches thought!

...

Sitting in a corner of the banquet, Yilin softly asked Jones, "When can these things be put into mass use?"

Jones replied, "It still needs some time. Deployment can begin at any time, but the problem lies with the 'mass' part. The process isn't too complex, but we don't have enough manpower. Development itself has taken up a lot of manpower, and the Magic Academy has only been established recently, meaning our new craftsmen haven't been trained yet."

"Don't we have the Blood Elves helping?"

"But they don't have many hands themselves. As far as I know, they've sent everyone they can. As per the agreement, after some time they'll be recalling some of their people. After all, they have more than just this task, just like I can't pour all my energy into this one thing."

"What about the cost?"

"The cost will be slightly high. Even if we only count the cost of materials, a new piece of magic equipment would have to be close to ten thousand Gold Coins."

"That's too high, we simply can't afford it." Benedict II interjected, "You have to know how much our financial income is, and how much can be used for military spending? Even if trade with Giant Snake City can earn us a lot, it still falls far short of this number."

"But the cost-performance ratio has improved." Jones replied softly, "We not only gain 'intelligence', in fact, our gains in material quality are also substantial. We design these pieces of equipment with a hundred-year usage period in mind. Which means, one piece of equipment can be used for a hundred years. Under normal use, it only needs maintenance once every hundred years. Spread out this way, it only costs a hundred Gold Coins per year, isn't that very cheap?"

Yilin and Benedict II were both silent.

After a while, Benedict II said softly, "Can't we lower the quality requirements? We still have quite a gap in military strength, so we hope to get them as soon as possible and as cheaply as possible. If priced at ten thousand Gold Coins, such equipment could only be assigned to the bodyguards or some important people, with little impact on the battlefield."

"I really can't do that." Jones shook his head and answered, "In fact... a hundred-year maintenance period is a bonus. To achieve our current combat power, we must at least have this quality. Lowering it might lead to various problems."

Yilin spread her hands helplessly, "It seems, in the future when evaluating the strength of a family, we not only have to assess their territory and military force but also consider how much family-heirloom magic equipment they have."

"This actually has benefits too." Jones said, "Thinking on the bright side, if individual combat power is greatly enhanced, then all city-states will only need to maintain defence troops for security and won't need so many offensive troops. Spread out, ten thousand Gold Coins equate to one hundred Gold Coins per year. One hundred Gold Coins can't maintain many elite troops. With these pieces of equipment, they can even have some counterattack capabilities when facing angels and demons, which ordinary troops can't achieve no matter how many there are."
