While signing the contract, Balola was pondering how to use the two floating battleships.
With these two floating battleships, if used well, the wealth needed to be paid wouldn't have to come out of the royal family's own pocket.
As for who would pay this price, it might be the Klein Empire, or it could be other noble lords within the Empire. The ongoing wars over the years have greatly depleted the Empire's resources.
Some nobles, like fat pigs, should be well-fed by now, and it's time to slaughter them.
As Balola was considering who to target, she realized that these people were originally of no use to the country. They were kept around just to help stabilize local areas.
However, in many places, public grievances were already boiling, and it's not that she didn't see it, she just temporarily had no energy to deal with it.
Zhao Guang was unaware that Balola was thinking about slaughtering pigs; at this moment, he was contemplating the issues of the magic net.
These were two floating battleships, but their energy sources were connected to the magic net. To use them, one needed to store a large amount of magic power within the magic net, some of which was meant for him.
But how to determine the ratio and how to store this magic power was a problem.
Because with the initial batch of floating battleships, he couldn't absorb magic power to form his own reserves. Even after his improvements, they still couldn't do it. It would be fine for his own use, but selling them would be a different matter.
Ultimately, Zhao Guang decided to have those magic net professionals provide the magic power.
However, the magic net professionals had to be specialized, directly interfacing with him, and signing contracts. The special magic power generated by their meditation would be designated entirely for the use of the floating battleships.
As for how to explain this to them and what other compensation to give, that wasn't his concern.
On this matter, Balola wasn't too worried; in fact, she had thought it through already.
Once the contracts were signed, this transaction would be complete.
Zhao Guang didn't plan on giving Balola those floating battleships that hadn't fully recovered yet, but rather gave her two ships that hadn't been involved in the war, at least seemingly intact and brand new.
In reality, as long as these were not irreversibly damaged, they would still look the same centuries later.
This kind of self-repair ability, when placed on items, is truly terrifying, incomparable by ordinary things.
At this time, Balola took out a book and handed it to Zhao Guang: "By the way, I found this in the national treasury recently, and it may be useful to you." Originally, Balola intended to use this as a bargaining chip, but who would have thought there was no need.
However, since it was useless to her, she thought it might as well be given to Zhao Guang if he liked it.
Zhao Guang took it and his eyes lit up.
Previously, Balola had gifted him a similar book that recorded the rules of magic patterns. It was because of that item his study of rune literature greatly improved, leading to the birth of magic rune professionals.
Unexpectedly, that book was not the whole collection; it was just the first volume.
This second volume was deeper, containing more content.
Though it couldn't reach his level in terms of height, in terms of breadth it could greatly aid Zhao Guang. He was planning to further enhance the level of magic rune professionals, and now he had a better reference.
At least for drawing inferences, this book was of significant use to him.
Balola truly gave him a huge surprise this time, Zhao Guang thought.
"This is incredibly useful to me, thank you so much."
Zhao Guang indeed appreciated Balola, although he was skeptical about her claim that it was recently discovered. Clearly, it was a set of two books, and they probably only took one out initially.
They likely wanted to test its usefulness to see if they could gain any benefits from it.
This book must have been studied many times, but it appeared to have yielded no results so far.
"Given this, what would you like in return?" Zhao Guang didn't want to owe favors, especially after becoming a demigod. His favors were very precious, better to repay them immediately.
But Balola didn't care much; she was already very satisfied with this transaction.
In her view, gifting this item to Zhao Guang as a present didn't result in any loss at all.
"I don't lack anything for now. If there's an issue, it's just my breakthrough problem."
Even though she reached the level of a Great Knight at a young age, she was almost impossible to reach the Legendary Level in this lifetime. Her family's inheritance could reach that height, but the inheritance itself had issues and didn't fully match her.
Otherwise, why hadn't a new Legend appeared in the royal family over the years?
The reason her ancestor reached Legend status was due to other reasons related to the inheritance.
Now that she had become queen, although the resources were more plentiful, training time was reduced, and she couldn't go to dangerous places for experience. Reaching the Legendary Level was almost laughable.
Hearing this, Zhao Guang had an idea of how to return the favor.
"If you don't mind, how about showing me your family's inheritance?"
If anyone else had said this, Balola would have promptly struck them down. But Zhao Guang had no interest in this stuff; after all, he probably already had several inheritances of the same level and wasn't lacking.
"Thank you so much." Balola snapped out of her thoughts and quickly responded.
She couldn't carry this kind of thing on her, but since she had memorized it, she just needed to find time to write it out.
Moreover, her attribute was just Fire, which Zhao Guang wasn't. Allowing him to adjust it could maybe present her with the chance in her lifetime. And with a legend-level proper inheritance, her family wouldn't have to fear anything anymore.
Even if someday the Horace Family became stronger, she would have confidence to fully suppress them.
That night, Balola wrote down her cultivation technique inheritance and personally delivered it to Zhao Guang. This kind of thing couldn't be trusted to others because it was the foundation of their family.
For a royal family, such inheritance also had a significant impact and couldn't be casually disclosed.
This transaction was really unexpected, and when she returned with the new inheritance, those old guys would surely be overjoyed. After all, many had been stuck on the edge of Legend for many years.
If there's even a sliver of breakthrough potential, those old guys wouldn't let it go even at the risk of their lives.
