"Your news is outdated. The latest news is that the new Divine City is near Carp Lake. The surrounding 1,000 miles have become Dawn's territory. Although the wilderness was still the hunting ground of the various races, the Human race had already established a firm foothold in this area. With the Divine City as their foundation, it was impossible to pull out this nail. The Dawn had a teleportation array, so they could quickly mobilize their troops."
"Our Dark Spirit Town is not far from Dawn's border. If we expand again, the Kingdom of Dawn will cover the region. I wonder if Dawn will discover our Dark Spirit Town. What will happen then?"
Other than the Human race, the residents of the other races in the town all showed curiosity and a trace of worry.
Everybody instinctively felt a sense of awe towards Dawn.
After all, the Dawn was not a typical country. It was a race that had fought its way out of the hands of other races. No tribe or city could withstand its power.
It would be difficult for Dark Spirit Town to reach the Kingdom of Dawn's army if they were discovered. It would be the same, even if they had a rune gun. The Dawn's divine crossbows were not necessarily inferior to the rune guns. Moreover, they had an unlimited supply of crossbow arrows. It would be terrifying.
No matter what, after Li Xiang took out thousands of Star Coins, the surrounding residents immediately turned to look at him with curiosity and speculation.
"Star Coins. Who has plenty of Star Coins? Please hurry up and exchange it for me. You can have anything you want. I'll even exchange for them with the rune guns."
At this moment, a short figure ran over from afar.
As he ran, he shouted.
It was difficult to tell any noticeable differences from the appearance of the gnomes. It was easy to mistake their appearances when looking at them, just like how Westerners looked at Asians. They always thought that Asians looked almost the same.
However, it could be seen that this gnome was still somewhat different. He wore an exquisite robe representing his status, and there was a hint of fanaticism on his face.
"Brother, this esteemed guest was the one who took out the Star Coins. He just bought a rune gun from me. However, the Star Coins are mine. I will never give them to you."
When Aide saw the gnome running over, he covered the portal bag with vigilance.
"My honourable human guest, this is my elder brother, Arcus. He is an engineering master and an alchemy master. This rune gun was personally created by my big brother. He was one of the inventors of the rune gun," introduced Aide.
"Do you have any more Star Coins? I'll use the rune gun to exchange for them. I want a large amount of Star Coins!" Accius looked at Li Xiang expectantly and quickly asked.
"What do you want Star Coins for?" Li Xiang narrowed his eyes and asked.
"It's for research, of course. A currency like the Star Coins is too perfect. It's not something that Crystal Coins can compare to. Not only does it contain more heaven and earth vitality than Crystal Coins, but it also contains a unique power that can increase one's cultivation speed. Compared to it, crystal coins were nothing. I want a large number of Star Coins. I want to research how Star Coins are forged. If I can research it, I can forge Star Coins."
Arcus' face was filled with madness.
He wanted to study the Star Coins and even reforge them.
Refining some materials into brand-new materials, breaking them down, and creating them were all within the scope of alchemy. The magical currency, the Star Coins, had naturally entered his sights long ago. He had even personally used alchemy to break it down.
However, he discovered that the moment they disintegrated, the heaven and earth vitality within the Star Coins immediately dissipated. Following that, the Star Coins turned into nothingness and disappeared. They were annihilated in front of his eyes. The scene was shocking. Even alchemy could not break down the natural materials for Star Coins.
Naturally, he was interested. The more difficult it was, the more it stimulated his curiosity and unwillingness to admit defeat.
He wanted to unravel the mysteries of the Star Coins. This would allow him to master the forging process of the Star Coins.
"If you want to crack the forging process of the Star Coins, you must be too optimistic. There is a unique restriction, and the power of will has been fused into it. The power of will was the people's will and could block all prying eyes. Moreover, the Star Coins were made from crystals and contained heaven and earth vitality. Once the heaven and earth vitality was broken down, it would naturally disappear and return to the Money tree. Even if you could somehow overcome the restriction within the Star Coins, you wouldn't be able to find any secrets within. To use alchemy to solve the mystery of the Star Coins will be a pipe dream."
Li Xiang was also surprised but still very confident in his Star Coins.
Only with the Coin-making Furnace could one forge perfect Star Coins. It was not an easy task to crack it.
"I have Star Coins, but one rune gun is enough. Too many of them are useless to me," said Li Xiang calmly.
"You don't want the rune guns? That's alright. If you buy a rune gun, you'll need rune bullets. I have specially-made rune bullets, armour-piercing bullets, explosive bullets, ice bullets, and flame bullets. If you refuse the rune guns, there are other treasures. Come, let's go to my alchemy lab. There's always something you want. I have plenty of treasures. Star Coins. I want Star Coins," said Arcus indifferently.
He had quite several treasures.
Surely. The Dark Spirit Town was a place with a black market. Arcus was the mayor of Dark Spirit Town. Of course, he did not usually manage things. He focused on his own research and creation. The matters in town were left entirely to their own devices.
This was also due to the racial mix in the town—the reason for peace.
Without waiting for Li Xiang's response, Arcus pulled Li Xiang and ran towards the Town Lord's Manor.
Li Xiang was also surprised by this hasty action. However, he also wanted to see what kind of collection Arcus had. To open a black market here, one must have made much money. Who knew how many good things he had collected?
Walking into the Town Lord's Manor, he realized it was not taken care of. All kinds of materials were piled up everywhere. It was a mess. It gave people the feeling that they had arrived at a construction site and a garbage dump.
However, it was obvious that there was more to it.
After entering, they entered the manor's underground under the guidance of Arcus.
It was a vast space.
It was made of all kinds of rare metals. Not only was it sturdy, but its defence was also solid. One could see many work tables. Some dwarves were swinging their hammers, hammering away at some parts. Some were forging weapons; some were forging armour. There was a branch of the River of Face flowing around them. It was like a natural furnace.
