Chapter 731: Reunion with the old enemy

"So that's it!" Jiang Feng suddenly realized, "No wonder every time I take the elevator, there is a whistling sound under the floor."

"But having said that, sealing the wind element in the elevator pipe, forcing it to work as a porter, and not paying wages, wouldn't it be like squeezing the poor wind element as a slave? Wouldn't this approach be too cruel?"

Jiang Nuxia couldn't help but feel sympathy.

"Comrade Xiao Jiang, you are very kind, but I have to remind you that when you try to empathize with elemental creatures from other worlds, you should not bring too much into the human perspective, let alone impose your likes and dislikes on the other party, otherwise It’s like NGO volunteers from developed countries going to underdeveloped countries to promote vegetarianism. Even if they have good intentions, they are just out of their minds.”

Gao Fei took over the conversation and solemnly enlightened his girlfriend.

"Our human lifespan is only a few hundred years. In the eyes of the nearly immortal elemental creatures, we are no more than a mayfly that lives and dies. The huge gap in time scale has led to completely different cultural traditions and even ways of thinking on both sides."

"The human spellcaster used a hyacinth gem as a commission to sign a contract with the wind element, requiring the latter to provide power for the wind elevator for 100 years. You think this is the cruel exploitation of labor by capitalists, but in the view of the wind element, Maybe it’s just a moment’s entertainment.”

"Well, it's because I'm too small-minded and too self-righteous." Jiang Feng laughed at himself, and then had a sudden thought: "Gao Fei! Didn't you study electrochemical engineering? Many seniors in your department went to If new energy car companies can use elemental magic technology to develop a new type of vehicle battery, will it set off a new round of technological revolution on Blue Star? "

"Your idea is a good one, but it's a pity that Tiangong has been doing it for a long time. If I join this industry now, nothing can keep up with the hot ones."

Gao Fei spread his hands and smiled bitterly.

"Including new energy vehicles, every modern means of transportation under the Blue Star technology system belongs to the lowest form of construction. Compared with the mechanical dog saved by the richest man himself, the gap is wider than that of a horse-drawn carriage in space. shuttle."

"Brother Fei's words are true!"

Ma Yun nodded in agreement: "My Toto, after all, has 5 points of intelligence attribute. It will definitely be no problem to pass the 'mirror test'. The fake one can be considered a strong artificial intelligence, and with the current technological level of Blue Star, even weak artificial intelligence Wisdom has not yet been realized.”

"From Toto to the Sand Golem, including our beautiful and intelligent webmaster, most of the constructs' energy cores and sources of intelligence come from the elemental essences sealed within the body. Soul, so elemental technology has long been closely integrated with construction engineering."

While Gao Fei was sighing with emotion, he also flattered the leader. He didn't know if the webmaster lady could hear it.

"Come and take a look, what kind of device is this?" Jiang Feng pointed to a hollow iron box fixed on the wall, "It looks a bit like a large outdoor air conditioner."

Gao Fei walked over and took a look. This machine was connected in series with a glass pipe. Through the metal grate, you could see that there were wheel-shaped paddles inside the box. It seemed to be a machine driven by the steam in the pipe. Large blower.

In order to verify his guess, he tried to break off a tie rod on the chassis, and sure enough, the blades whirred and spun, creating a strong airflow.

Ma Yun, who was standing opposite the steam blower, was unexpectedly blown back by the strong wind, causing the hem of her skirt to float up.

Jiang Feng took the opportunity to glance under her skirt.

"Yo! Little white panties!"

"Sister Feng! You are so lustful!" Ma Yun quickly covered her skirt, her face flushed with embarrassment.

Gao Fei pushed the lever, turned off the blower, and complained to his girlfriend with a smile: "Comrade Xiao Jiang, you are good at everything. The only thing that needs to be corrected is that you are a little bit obscene!"

Jiang Feng rolled his eyes at him, stood in front of the stopped blower and struck a pose, half-seriously and half-fakely:

"It's a pity that I am wearing trousers, otherwise I would like to cosplay some classic photos of Marilyn Monroe to open your eyes!"

"You can have this!" Gao Fei's eyes suddenly lit up, "I raise my hands and feet to support you!"

"You were so serious just now, now I've tested you out, haven't you?" Jiang Feng scolded her boyfriend with a smile, "You're obviously a gangster, why are you pretending to be a gentleman!"

When the two were bickering, Ma Yun accidentally noticed that the curtain in a corner of the laboratory was blown open by the strong wind just now, revealing a cylindrical glass vessel ten meters high and two meters thick, extending from the floor to the ceiling, sealed. Very strict.

Inside the thick hollow glass column, there seemed to be a human figure inside.

"Huh? What is that... a human specimen?"

Xiao Ma used a "dancing light technique" to illuminate the glassware, curiously looking at the humanoid creature sealed inside.

The man had his back to her, wearing a black velvet cloak without a hood, and his long shawl hair hanging down around his waist like a waterfall.

The hands exposed outside the cloak had a faint blue in their pale skin, as if they had just been painted on the walls.

The woman's long hair and skin color, as well as her back and attire, all made Ma Yun feel familiar. She walked around the glass column with curiosity, intending to take a look at the woman's face.

The woman in black robe in the glass pillar, for some unknown reason, turned around wherever Ma Yun went, always keeping her back to Ma Yun, as if she didn't want the other party to see her face.

Ma Yun stopped, rolled her eyes, and raised a sly arc at the corner of her lips.

She deliberately stepped on the floor and pretended to go around to the left. Before her feet even touched the ground, she suddenly turned to the right.

The woman in black robe was accidentally shaken by her. When she came to her senses, Ma Yun was already standing opposite her, face to face with her.

The moment their eyes met, the woman in black robe was stunned for a moment, a look of embarrassment appeared on her beautiful face, and she quickly turned her head to avoid Ma Yun's sight.

"Haha! Stop hiding, I recognize your aquiline nose!" Classmate Xiao Ma pointed at the woman in the glass column and laughed: "Little hag Istna, why are you locked up here?"

"Shut up! What do you, a smart village girl, know? I'm not locked up here!"

Estna was clearly a prisoner, but she still pretended to be calm.

"To tell you the truth, I'm fine, nothing happened!

"That's weird. If the years are really peaceful and the world is stable, why are you locked in a glass jar like a fish being visited in an aquarium?"

Gao Fei came over and taunted Istna with a half-smile.

"I told you, I wasn't locked up! I got tired while exploring this underground ruins and came in to rest on my own! I advise you to mind your own business!"

The hag's daughter, Istna, still looked arrogant.
