"Goodbye, Lilulu. I'll come and play with you next time."
A small green Elf fluttered her translucent, dragonfly-like wings behind her and waved goodbye.
Not far from her, Lilulu was also waving.
"Alright, Philis, stay safe."
Beside the two little ones, Kane was also waving goodbye to Amis and the others, who then turned and walked towards the Teleportation Station.
Today was the day Amis and the others were leaving Furnace Castle, and Kane had brought Lilulu to bid them farewell, looking forward to their next meeting.
This time, Amis and the others said they had been playing long enough, and with no battles in the Dungeon, they'd just been hiding. It was time to perk up for the next round of exploration.
"Kane, quickly take me to buy some things. I have some materials I want to purchase."
After saying goodbye to Philis, Lilulu sat directly on Kane's shoulder and said.
Hearing Lilulu's words, Kane nodded and said, "Sure, but you'll have to wait until the afternoon. I need to go to the Mechanical Association today."
Not long after Kane and the others finished exploring the Dungeon, a branch of the Mechanical Association had already been established, and Kane often went there to discuss mechanics with the people there.
Lilulu had no objections to this; she had been to the Mechanical Association with Kane a few times and found the things there quite interesting, so she didn't mind, even looking forward to it.
Kane, with Lilulu, walked down the streets of Furnace Castle, noticing that although there weren't as many Alien Races as at the Beer Festival, there were still significantly more than usual.
This was all thanks to the emergence and promotion of the Eternal Victory Battlefield.
Especially after the Mist Council identified it as a permanent Dungeon, almost every slightly larger Guild or organization would establish a branch here, sending people regularly to act as observers and recruit new members.
All the organizations and Guilds were recruiting personnel on a large scale. Many who knew some truth understood the preparations being made, but most were unaware. However, there were quite a few smart ones who sensed something amiss from these actions and made preparations accordingly.
After a stretch down the street, they saw an area under construction in many places nearby.
These were new buildings being constructed, and many of the completed structures already displayed the names and flags of various associations.
It was said that this area had been given to these associations by the Elder Council, specifically for constructing their branches.
Of course, among the earliest associations to move in was the Mechanical Association.
It seemed each branch had a slightly different architectural style. The Furnace Castle's Mechanical Association, while welded together from various steel scraps, was shaped like a forging hammer.
Kane arrived at the association's entrance, where a relatively rudimentary assembled robot was sweeping with a broom.
It seemed to sense Kane, turned its head, and emitted a mechanical sound: "Master Kane, good morning!"
Kane knocked on its iron head as he passed, producing a thudding sound.
"Good morning to you too, Number 13."
"Why don't you say good morning to me, Iron Head?" Lilulu flapped her wings and flew in front of Number 13 robot, asking.
Number 13 robot stood in place, its eyes scanning Lilulu: "Good morning to you too, lovely Miss Lilulu."
"Hehe, you too."
Hearing Number 13's words, Lilulu returned to Kane's shoulder with satisfaction.
The last time Number 13 robot greeted Lilulu, it didn't include the lovely prefix, which Lilulu had insisted the council staff add.
Kane pushed open the association's door and walked in.
"Master Kane."
"Good morning, Master Kane."
"Master Kane, your suggestion last time was indeed very correct. Based on your opinion, I've created a finished product; maybe you can take a look when you have time."
As Kane exchanged greetings with the association members, he heard this and immediately walked over.
Standing before him was not a human but a small Dwarf, a Gnome.
The Gnomes were a very talented Race in the field of mechanics.
"Lava, you're already about to produce a finished product so quickly? Let me see; I'm quite curious."
Lava was the Gnome in front of him, who often shared mechanical experiences with Kane in previous meetings.
Kane knew he was working on an interesting reconnaissance machine and would occasionally offer him suggestions.
Unexpectedly, this time Lava had produced a finished product.
Upon hearing Lava had a finished product, many association members gathered around.
"Don't rush, make some space." Lava said, and then he took out a black box from his Space Equipment.
He then opened the box.
Inside was his mechanical creation.
A disc-shaped object, clearly displaying Magic Patterns on it.
It seemed incomplete, allowing one to see some mechanical structures inside and the central Energy Core from the outside.
Lava took out the disc and placed it on the ground, then took a bracelet from beside the black box and put it on his wrist.
"Friends, watch closely."
With that, Lava waved his hand, his fingers following suit. As his hand moved, the patterns on the disc began Flashing with blue light and floated up from the ground.
