After delegating the matters concerning the war, Gu Xi turned back to Shaya. He hesitated before finally speaking.
"Have Mary talk to the humans and find out how urgent their business is. If it's urgent, arrange a face-to-face meeting right away.
I'll put the Illusion Magic Staff aside for now. If they're not in a hurry, I'll deal with the staff first."
Shaya nodded and left.
Gu Xi vanished in a flash, leaving the villa where he had been resting.
Over in Flame Victoria, the quasi red equipment Great Furnace was operating at full capacity.
Whenever the Red Equipment Guard-Blacksmith had nothing else to do, he spent most of his time working here.
Sylvia had even built a dedicated Teleportation Gate for him, allowing the Red Equipment Guard-Blacksmith to travel back and forth freely.
Transporting the various supplies was less convenient. Everything had to be shipped by rail.
Gu Xi often came here himself to see what orange equipment had been produced that day.
If there was nothing particularly good, Gu Xi would casually convert a few pieces into death equipment and send them to the Death Flower Kaleidoscope.
In fact, Gu Xi had already finished his daily routine today.
He had already visited this place, where the Red Equipment Guard-Blacksmith was forging experimental equipment.
Gu Xi had given the Red Equipment Guard-Blacksmith permission to do this.
Every day, the Red Equipment Guard-Blacksmith researched how to combine the furnace with his own techniques to produce orange equipment using small amounts of orange-grade and purple-grade materials.
That research was close to yielding results. Many of the pieces of orange equipment Gu Xi had taken away to convert lately were experimental products.
Today had been no different.
After Gu Xi left, the Red Equipment Guard-Blacksmith had continued working hard on his research.
