Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

Blainey has been working non-stop lately, completing a lot of complicated and detailed preparations. She stays in the shop every day, carefully designing the appearance of the pocket watch, striving to achieve perfection.

At the same time, she worked tirelessly to train the store staff, teaching them various sales skills and service concepts. She was so busy that she even put aside her deep longing for Kashin! She devoted herself wholeheartedly to planning and preparing for the future.

Two days passed quietly like this, and on this day, the leader sent someone to summon her to the magic tower for a meeting.

Blainey could probably estimate in her heart that the land problem that had always worried her might have a solution.

With a nervous and expectant mood, she came to the magic tower and asked respectfully: "Leader, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Haha, of course there is something. Do you think I just like chatting?" The leader responded with a hint of sarcasm.

When Blaney saw that the leader seemed to be in a good mood, he smiled and said, "Please tell me, leader. It's good news."

The leader picked up the exquisite wine glass in front of him, took a sip, and then began to talk about the relevant content slowly and leisurely.

Talking about coordinating land issues, this is not a simple matter. The key lies in the headquarters of the Magic Association, so we simply go directly to the headquarters to discuss the matter.

When asked about the purpose of the land, he naturally said that he wanted to build a mercenary base composed of magicians, and that he needed about ten acres of land. You know, magicians spend most of their time practicing, so they don't have to be too bad in terms of the surrounding environment and facilities.

The headquarters expressed support for the idea of ​​having a magician mercenary base, but clearly stipulated that it was not allowed to be opened on the Magic Island and that a neutral stance must be maintained.

So there is an uninhabited desert island two hundred miles west of the Magic Island, about ten miles in radius, with abundant fresh water resources on the island and abundant elements in this area. It is indeed a very suitable place for magicians to practice. If a mercenary base is built there, it may be able to solve the problem once and for all.

After listening to this, Blayney shook his head without hesitation and said, "Leader, this won't work. Safety is not guaranteed at all. The Magic Island has a certain order and is protected by the Witte Tower. This is the basic guarantee for opening a mercenary station. What's the use of this deserted island? If you accidentally offend people from other magic towers in order to complete the mission, you will definitely be retaliated, and then the loss will outweigh the gain..."

The leader smiled and said, "Your concerns are not without reason, but this uninhabited desert island is vast. If it is well constructed, it will definitely be very good. The headquarters allows you to develop it freely, and you will definitely not lose money."

"Leader, this is really not possible. There are no people or resources in that place. It has nothing. Otherwise, how could it be my turn? If I really go to build it, I will lose a lot of money. Investment is for profit, not for charity..." Blaney explained anxiously.

The leader continued to smile and said, "Perhaps the headquarters also wants to use that uninhabited island, but the situation there seems to be no one willing to explore it. Apart from other things, just transporting the construction materials over there would be a huge expense."

"The headquarters should build the infrastructure and then invite all the magicians from the Magic Island to develop it together. But you let me, a junior magician, build it. Leader, no amount of money will be enough. We will become impoverished in an instant. Moreover, even if it is built, no one will move in. The whole place will be deserted..." Blaney became more and more excited as he spoke.

The leader smiled and said, "The Magic Association Headquarters is willing to give a certain amount of subsidies. As long as you dare to explore, the specific conditions can be negotiated..."

"Come on! How can I outwit these big shots? They just use the word "neutral" to make me build a base in a high-sounding manner. I would rather build one in my own territory than go there." Blaney categorically and directly rejected the suggestion from the headquarters to open up the uninhabited island.

If the Magic Island cannot open a mercenary base, then just give up. If you can't recruit high-level magicians from the Magic Island, the mercenary team will definitely not be able to obtain high-quality talents, and this plan to make money will not work.

Miss Blainey was not in a hurry. The shop needed her to devote her energy to cultivating talents, so she would just stay busy on the island for a while.

Magic Academy...

On the other side, Kashin also customized flags. He customized 100,000 flags for his beloved wife's Sheldon Castle. He heard about this from Blainey and learned it on the spot, so it looks very standard.

The things in the academy are cheap, but the quality cannot be compared with those on the Magic Island. But at least it is a magic flag, it will not fade or rot, and will remain new over time.

This order will take one or two years to complete, so the college can take its time making it and enjoy door-to-door delivery service.

After Kashin received a large order from the academy, he immediately went to the alchemy laboratory where Blaney customized pocket watches. He gently opened the door and greeted the busy alchemy masters inside with a smile: "Hi, masters, let me take a look."

One of the masters looked up and asked in confusion, "What happened to your mentor, Miss Blainey? She just took away all the goods and now she's here to urge you again?"

Kashin waved his hands and explained: "Don't get me wrong, I'm here to ask the masters for help. I got a new recurve bow that looks like it was made from alchemy. I want to ask the masters to crack the production method and customize a batch for the family guards!"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked and gathered around. Another master said excitedly: "Guard Kashin, you mean the new stuff, the recurve? Bring it to me, it's a challenge to crack the production method..."

The masters put down their work and gathered around to watch the fun. Kashin took out the rhino horn recurve bow.

The masters repeatedly looked at it and commented on it:

"The bow body is deformed by recurving to save effort and reduce tension. The deformed bow back also increases the rebound force. I have known this principle for a long time, but the production cost is high, so I did not continue researching it because it would definitely not sell well. There is no reason to research a product that cannot make money when I have a way to make money."

Kashin: "The family caravans are guarded by scouts and are equipped with bows and arrows. If we can figure out how to make these bows, we will purchase them in large quantities and won't have to worry about not making money."

Alchemist Master A: "Everyone, do you understand the materials? Let us have a look. If there is profit, how about we take some time to crack this bow?"

"It's made of composite materials with complicated components, so the bow must be disassembled. If it's not disassembled, it will never be cracked. The bow may be scrapped and there is no guarantee that it can be researched out. So, Guard Kashin, the master needs to think carefully about this."

Kashin smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, just take it apart. There is only one recurve bow found on the entire battlefield, which shows that it is not easy to make. Take it apart! As long as we can figure it out, I think it will be very worthwhile, at least we can explore it."

Kashin left the bow behind, on the premise that he would keep some material samples for research and to acquire some knowledge. He also left the bow behind and ordered ten ordinary pocket watches to be given to generals who focused on training troops, so that they could come back for military training purposes.

They readily agreed to it. Kashin would use the watches in the scout training camp and it was impossible for them to break the rules in the market. So it would not be a problem to give him ten pocket watches.

He also agreed to design a mechanical military model, a movement that ordinary people could not use that was powered by magic.
