My queen is rebelling!

Cohen's gaze suddenly deepened, his eyes revealing a burning desire and a fiery lust that he wanted to unleash.

Isabella's face was flushed, her eyes filled with watery light, as she whispered:

"If it's not really for you, your queen can't find fault, right? Just think of me as... um... I heard there's a new kind of 'alchemy doll' in the capital for flirting..."

Before she could finish speaking, Cohen directly went for her lips, frantically plundering her breath, as if trying to suck Isabella's soul out.

Inexperienced Isabella couldn't help but let out a seductive moan.

This sound was like a signal, and Cohen immediately launched into further action.

Isabella suddenly felt a chill on her upper body, and then she realized what was happening, her delicate body trembling slightly.

Her porcelain-white skin was dazzlingly bright.

A hint of panic flashed in the depths of Isabella's eyes, and before she could say anything, an unprecedented sense of oppression came over her, and then she knew nothing more.

...

Cohen took out the "Sand of Time." Tolkien Firebeard had been in the "Sand of Time" space for three days, with no sign of wanting to come out.

Tolkien's obsession with repairing the "Book of Time and Space" surprised Cohen somewhat.

But today, he had to awaken the Firebeard Guild Leader from this state, because he had an important matter to discuss with him.

Cohen followed the incantation Isabella had taught him, chanting a few words softly, and the golden sand in the hourglass began to rise, grain by grain, towards the upper part of the hourglass in a mysterious trajectory.

After all the sand in the lower part had entered the upper part, a golden spatial gate slowly opened from the void, revealing Tolkien's focused figure.

Tolkien also sensed the disturbance at this time, raised his head, and saw Cohen, his face showing a dazed expression:

"How many days have I been in here?"

Cohen said with a smile:

"Master Firebeard, it's been three days. Many craftsmen came to find you before, but Chief Ironrock turned them all away."

Tolkien looked astonished, not expecting that he had been inside for three days and three nights. He gave a wry smile and stepped out of the "Sand of Time" space, saying to Cohen:

"It is indeed a treasure of that level. Just figuring out its structure took me a full three days."

Cohen asked:

"Then how long will it take to repair completely?"

Tolkien pondered for a moment and said:

"About half a month.

Everything else is simple, but there are many spatial nodes imprinted on it that need to be repaired one by one, which takes a lot of time."

Hearing this not-too-long time, Cohen was able to accept it and breathed a sigh of relief.

This node was not only on Winsader's mind, but Cohen also wanted to go in and take a look very much.

According to the gray-robed researcher in the "Night Mist Phantom," there were backup materials from their research institute inside.

Regarding that floating research institute that produced the "Concentric Curse Seal" and condensed the Arcane Empire's research results on ancient elven magic, Cohen's desire to explore was still relatively strong.

Cohen said:

"Alright, thank you, Master Firebeard. If there are any materials you need, please let me know in time, and I will do my best to gather them for you.

Also, there is another matter I need to trouble you with."

Tolkien looked thoughtful and quickly thought of the other part of the soul contract he had signed before, and asked:

"Is it to forge a batch of equipment?"

Cohen did not answer, but made a gesture to wait a moment, then reactivated the "Sand of Time," and the two entered the "Sand of Time" space. Only then did he say:

"I need the master to help me forge twenty thousand sets of 'Star Guardian Armor'!"

Tolkien was stunned for a moment, then reacted, a trace of horror in his eyes, staring blankly at Cohen, and said:

"Sir... you... you can't be talking about one of the ten great 'Demon God Equipment' of the continent, the 'Star Guardian Armor,' right?!"

Cohen nodded solemnly.

Tolkien took a deep breath. He finally knew why Cohen was being so careful.

Forging a batch of equipment not only required signing a soul contract, but also being so mysterious and secretive to avoid prying eyes, and entering another dimension to talk.

It turned out that what was being forged was the "Demon God Equipment" that every country, even every race, dreamed of!

Demon God Equipment that could allow ordinary soldiers to cross the extraordinary level and fight against legendary extraordinary beings!

Since the other party said so, then he must have the crafting blueprints for the "Star Guardian Armor" in his hands!

As a master craftsman in the forging world, he naturally knew what a complete Demon God Equipment blueprint represented, and what it meant to be able to possess such a blueprint.

Involuntarily, he became more and more in awe of Cohen's identity.

Cohen's calm voice broke Tolkien's thoughts:

"To be precise, the first batch is twenty thousand sets, and as for the subsequent ones, there will definitely be more.

My requirement is that only you can know about this.

You have to find a way to have others forge twenty thousand sets of 'Star Guardian Armor' for me without their knowledge."

Tolkien Firebeard frowned and pondered for a long time before asking:

"I need to see the blueprints first."

Cohen did not refuse, took out a blueprint from his arms, and handed it to Tolkien.

Tolkien sat directly on the ground, holding up the blueprint and studying it.

From time to time, his face showed a look of surprise, and he also took out several thick books from the space storage device, comparing and contrasting some of the content with the blueprint.

After a long time, he slowly stood up, his eyes flashing with confident light, and said:

"Yes, but the production cost may be higher."

Cohen was slightly happy and asked:

"You don't need to consider the cost issue. How exactly are you going to do it?"

Speaking of professional issues, Tolkien's awe of Cohen also lessened a lot, his face clearly showing a calm confidence, and said:

"I just studied the blueprints of the 'Star Guardian Armor' and found that most of its structure is similar to two pieces of equipment called 'Star Battle Armor' and 'Guardian Glory Shield.'

I have a guess that perhaps the inventors of 'Star Battle Armor' and 'Guardian Glory Shield' also saw the 'Star Guardian Armor' blueprints, and these two sets of equipment are two imitations of it."

Tolkien's words surprised Cohen very much, and he continued to wait for the other party to continue.

Tolkien was obviously much more excited and continued:

"In addition to the external structure, the most important thing about Demon God Equipment is the magic drive array, which is the 'Star Guardian Armor,' or rather the core component of all Demon God Equipment.

In my opinion, we can completely disassemble the 'Star Guardian Armor' to forge it, which can minimize the risk of leakage.

My plan is to recruit two batches of craftsmen and start at the same time.

One batch of craftsmen is responsible for forging 'Star Battle Armor.'

The other batch is responsible for forging 'Guardian Glory Shield.'

Of course, it will be different from the real forging methods of 'Star Battle Armor' and 'Guardian Glory Shield.'

But don't worry about this, I will claim to the outside world that it is my new research on these two pieces of equipment.

I have often done similar research before, and it will not attract attention.

As for the most important core array, these can be handed over to my students, and I will let them be responsible for imprinting the basic framework of the drive array.

The core part of the drive array will be done by me personally, including the subsequent assembly of the armor, I can do it alone."

Listening to Tolkien's meticulous and rigorous plan, Cohen secretly thought that he had indeed found the right person. After a slight thought, he asked:

"Assembling the armor and imprinting the magic drive array will only be completed by the master alone. Will this workload be too much for the master?

In addition, I hope that this batch of equipment can be forged as soon as possible, and the issue of time must also be considered."

Tolkien quickly replied:

"This is no problem. No matter what, I am also a Gold-rank extraordinary being. This workload is not a big deal to me.

As for the time... it can be delivered in no more than three months at the latest. What do you think?"

Hearing the other party's answer, Cohen's face showed a look of surprise. He increasingly felt that this trip to the dwarf clan was extremely valuable.

He really found a master-level figure in forging and smelting.

The time given by Tolkien was far lower than his psychological expectation.

Seeing that Cohen did not respond for a long time, Tolkien thought that the other party did not believe in his strength, and said seriously:

"Mr. Yahn, although our 'Smelting Tribe' has declined, there is still a lot of valuable knowledge left by our ancestors in the clan.

If it weren't for the external structure of the 'Star Guardian Armor' being too complicated, and you were in a hurry, I could assemble these twenty thousand sets of equipment myself."

Cohen quickly waved his hand and said:

"Master, you misunderstood. I completely believe that you have this strength. Then it's settled. My twenty thousand sets of 'Star Guardian Armor' will be completely entrusted to you to forge!

Thank you!

If you have any other requirements, whether it is official or private, you can ask me, and I will do my best to satisfy you."

Tolkien shook his head and said:

"Mr. is willing to tell me the exact location of the ancestor's 'Forging Workshop.' This is already the greatest thanks to me."

Cohen smiled slightly and said:

"One thing is one thing.

That is the reward for your support of Ironrock.

Master doesn't say it, but I also know it in my heart. You can rest assured that I will not watch the 'Smelting Tribe' fall into war and turmoil. When that day comes, even if the Eastern Region Empire forces me with the whole country, I will have a way to help the 'Smelting Tribe' through the difficulties!"

Hearing Cohen's words, the expression on Tolkien's face shook, and he nodded heavily.

...

After seven days of sleepless repair, the "Book of Time and Space" was finally restored to its original state by Master Tolkien Firebeard.

This also meant that Cohen possessed a genuine "Demigod Artifact"!

Unfortunately, the only flaw was the words Tolkien said when he handed the "Book of Time and Space" to Cohen:

"Mr. Yahn, most of this treasure has been repaired, but there is one key place that has always had problems."

Cohen frowned slightly and asked:

"Where is the problem?"

Tolkien did not answer directly, but instead asked:

"According to my research, Mr. Yahn's treasure can allow the user to teleport to any location with imprinted spatial nodes on it, right?"

Cohen nodded and said:

"That's right. Could it be that there are several spatial nodes that cannot be repaired?"

Thinking of this, Cohen couldn't help but feel nervous, because there was a very important spatial node inside.

Tolkien shook his head and said:

“It’s not that. I’ve already repaired the space nodes. It’s about the teleportation issue.

According to my deduction, this treasure should be able to teleport many people in a short period.

But during the process of my repair, I discovered that it was missing a core component.

And in the repair method and material list you gave me, there was no explanation about this core component.

This leads to the fact that although this treasure can still function as a teleporter,

the number of people it can teleport each time is not that many.

It can probably teleport about ten people at a time, and each teleportation requires an hour to absorb spatial energy to replenish power.

I believe this treasure was originally much more powerful than it currently appears to be.”

Cohen nodded frequently, recalling what the gray-robed researcher had told him.

At that time, the gray-robed researcher said that the “Book of Time and Space” could teleport one hundred people at a time, and could automatically recharge every ten minutes.

Core component?

The latest novels are first published on 69shu.com!

He recalled carefully, confirming that he had not heard the gray-robed researcher mention anything similar.

He asked:

“What core?”

Tolkien was silent for a while, seemingly considering how to organize his words, and after a moment he said:

“It feels like a high-level energy conversion device that can convert the absorbed spatial energy into this more advanced energy.

This more advanced energy can teleport more people.”

Hearing about more advanced energy, Cohen was suddenly stunned.

The various experiences in the “Nightmare Mist Illusion” appeared in his mind.

The “more advanced energy” that Tolkien spoke of should be the power called “Ao”!

The missing core should be an energy conversion device that can convert magic into “Ao”.

The core of the “Book of Time and Space” should have been lost when the research institute crashed.

When the gray-robed researcher taught him the repair method, he probably didn't expect this thing to be lost.

Perhaps he thought of it, but he believed that with his level, he could not replicate this energy conversion device that represents the crystallization of the civilization of the Arcane Empire.

So he didn't mention it, anyway, it could still be used.

Cohen breathed a sigh of relief and said:

“It’s okay, if it teleports fewer people, then so be it. Master Quenching Fire has worked hard these past few days.”

After sending away Tolkien Quenching Fire, Cohen opened the “Book of Time and Space” and began to look at the space nodes on it.

In addition to the runes representing the space nodes, there was also information annotated in the text of the Arcane Empire.

Cohen glanced at it briefly, there were famous places on the Demon Tide Continent such as “Nether Abyss”, “Fairy Wilderness”, “Eternal Night City”, “Dragon Valley”, etc., which Cohen had also heard of.

There were also some other strange names and locations, and Cohen needed to verify these specific locations one by one.

He quickly flipped to the space node of “Ancient Tomb of the Ancient Elves” in the middle, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It seems that what the gray-robed researcher said was true, the “Book of Time and Space” does have a space node leading to the ancient elven tomb.

Now he can finally give Windsor a satisfactory answer.

Cohen has seen the efforts and friendship of the elf lady, and he can't let her down no matter what.

Cohen quickly flipped to the page imprinted with the space node of the Emerald Lake Villa in Florence, which was specially imprinted before leaving, so that he could quickly return to Florence.

Touching the runes representing the space node of the Emerald Lake Villa, Adair's beautiful face appeared in Cohen's mind.

From his birth until now, in almost twenty years, this is the first time he has been separated from her for so long.

He didn't notice it when they were often together before, but suddenly not seeing her for a long time, he really felt a little unaccustomed.

Cohen gently exhaled and buried his thoughts deep in his heart.

He reopened a new blank page on the “Book of Time and Space” and imprinted the location of the space node of the 'Smelting Tribe' according to the method taught by the gray-robed researcher.

The matters to be handled in the dwarf clan have been almost handled. On the whole, the trip to the dwarf clan was quite satisfactory.

After Isabella signed the contract with Chief Iron Rock regarding “cross-racial trade”, the two quietly left the “Smelting Tribe”.

Northern Mountains of the Western Region Empire, Wind and Snow Mine Cave.

Chief Groin Firehammer of the “Firehammer Tribe” kept casting strange glances at Cohen from time to time.

Even though many days had passed since he received the news of the new chief of the “Smelting Tribe”, Groin still couldn't believe it.

Why was Iron Rock, who had no hope at all, suddenly able to ascend to the position of chief?

Was it because of this human in front of him who hadn't even shown his face?

It must be said that he is indeed the man favored by the “Golden Winged Woman”. This amazing method is really awe-inspiring and frightening.

Cohen said with a faint smile:

“Chief Firehammer, I will have to trouble you with the trial operation of the trade route next.”

Groin restrained all his emotions and replied respectfully:

“These are all things I should do. Are you and Madam leaving now?”

When he saw the smile on Isabella's face, Groin immediately felt that his impromptu title was very appropriate.

Cohen nodded and said:

“That’s right, I still have things to do back in the 'Lost Land', so I won’t bother the chief any longer.”

Groin smiled all over his face, repeatedly saying that he was not bothering them, and hoped that Cohen and his wife could support the development of the dwarf tribe more.

Hearing this, Cohen suddenly said:

“Chief Firehammer, for the sake of the friendship between you and me, I’ll give you a reminder.”

Hearing Cohen's solemn words, Groin did not dare to neglect him at all. His expression became much more serious, and he pretended to listen attentively.

Cohen said in a low voice:

“Be careful of the 'Barbarian Hammer Tribe', be careful of the people of the Eastern Region Empire, and don't become a victim of the power struggle between the two empires!”

Groin was slightly moved. As one of the top ten tribes of the Great Alliance, he had more or less heard some rumors. Now that he heard Cohen say this, he couldn't help but become more worried.

A few traces of struggle flashed across his eyes, and then he gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice:

“Please tell me, sir, how should our 'Firehammer Tribe' respond!”

Cohen raised his eyebrows slightly and said calmly:

“Together with the 'Smelting Tribe', do business with the 'Pale Wings' properly. If possible, bring in some other tribes, not necessarily the top ten dwarf tribes, some small and medium-sized tribes are also fine.

As for other things, don't get involved.

As long as you stick to this principle, if something really happens in the future, I will protect your tribe.”

Groin nodded heavily, clearly expressing his position:

“Don't worry, sir, I will do as you say!”

… …

After Cohen and Isabella left the Western Region Empire, they went straight to the base camp of the “Pale Wings” observation group, located on an orderly floating island in the “Mechanical Continent”.

Just after entering the “Mechanical Continent”, while resting in a hotel, Cohen heard news about his “Endless Alliance” from other people’s conversations.

The two parties talking, one was the owner of the hotel, and the other was much more eye-catching. He looked about forty years old, with a very ordinary face, but half of his body was covered with metal and alchemical materials.

It shone with a cold silver light, and the metal surface was covered with complex and mysterious patterns.

When walking, it made a slight buzzing sound. The metal and flesh were perfectly integrated, exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.

Cohen's eyes moved slightly, this was a sixth-order 【Mechanical Warrior】!

He shifted his attention and listened to the conversation between the two.

The hotel owner was standing at the front desk, playing with a gray bird.

He said to the 【Mechanical Warrior】 named Stanford:

“Stanford, are you planning to leave the 'Mechanical Continent' after suddenly settling your long-term room bill?”

The 【Mechanical Warrior】 named Stanford said in a deep voice:

“I can’t make a living here. Unlike you, I have to spend one gold coin every day just sitting there and not moving, otherwise my old guy will rust!

The cost of living in the 'Mechanical Continent' is too expensive. I heard that there are several newly developed 'Order City-States' in the north, which are recruiting all kinds of professionals.

The first 50,000 citizens are exempt from paying living expenses for the first three years.

If they are transcendent professionals, they are directly exempt from paying living expenses for five years, and there are also various benefits according to their level.

I heard that even 'Alchemy Knowledge' can be bought, I'm going to give it a try.”

The hotel owner said in surprise:

“Are you talking about the 'Endless Alliance' in the 'Mysterious Continent'? Several people have been talking about this emerging force these days.”

Stanford nodded quickly and said:

“That’s right, it’s this 'Endless Alliance'. Although the name is inexplicably strange, I heard from the first batch of people who went there that the other party’s promises are basically fulfilled.”

The hotel owner showed an envious look:

“It’s a pity that my family business is in the 'Mechanical Continent', otherwise I would definitely join in the fun.

I heard that the owner of this 'Endless Alliance' is a young man in his twenties?

Not long ago, the 'Farmer City-State' was taken over by him.”

Stanford said in surprise:

“Boss, you have very good information. I also asked people to inquire about this information after I planned to go to the Endless Alliance.”

The boss smiled indifferently and said:

“People come and go from all over the world here, so I naturally get more information.”

Speaking of this, the boss suddenly said mysteriously:

“I also heard some rumors.”

At the same time, he lowered his voice:

“Many people are spreading rumors now, saying that this young man is the little man raised by Her Excellency the Curse Witch, otherwise why would she be so good to him.

She helped him drive away the Petroff family, who had been operating in the 'Farmer City-State' for many years, and gave him the precious 'Order Fire Seed'.

She also bestowed him with the 'Pioneering Order'. Now the outside world is going crazy, saying that the mysterious master, who has always been aloof and suspected of being homosexual, has found a young gigolo in his twenties…”

Ten years of drinking ice, it’s hard to cool the hot blood!

The all-Chinese team once again entered the finals!!!
