"As for her, whenever Rosalie goes to sleep in your room, she comes to my place to drink. Last night she even danced a solo to Gaines' accompaniment. It seemed to be a ballet that the aristocrats like," said Flint.
"Eh? Isn't it enough to just recite the spell?"
Wang: "That's the automatic maintenance device of those golems. They are the red-eyed humanoid golems we fought before we came down. We dismantled all the golems, so they don't need it anymore."
Then there is the console left behind by the Cyclops Empire. The "human-computer interaction interface" crystal ball of the central control system is on the console.
The dwarf looked at the remains of the wardrobe, then at Elizabeth: "Is it because of the drinking last night?"
Wang: "Wait a minute! That was fried by Elizabeth."
Rosalie also stood up at this time. She said, "It is indeed a very standard ballet step. It can be seen that the training has been very hard."
Noticing that she was being watched, Elizabeth stood on tiptoe, danced a few steps, and turned in a circle.
The flames immediately enveloped the dung ball in her hand.
In addition to the space separated by the screen, there are also tables and chairs in the room for everyone to sit during meetings, and on the table is a map of the current surface of the floating island.
At this time, the main door opened and the rescue team rushed in.
Elizabeth and Rosalie responded together, "I'm here."
Xiaobai gently kicked Wang's shin bone and said, "You really are stubborn."
Elizabeth's eyes widened. "Here? Shouldn't we talk on the ground first?"
Elizabeth glanced over these in turn.
Wang: "Well, I do have this plan. But am I so happy about it?"
Xiao Bai poked his thigh and said, "Just shut up and watch."
The king shut his mouth.

Chapter 273: Dwarfs, Electricity, and Explosions
After a small commotion in the morning, the rescue team went up to the ground to find a way to eat.
In the southern part of the floating island, Rosalie opened up a large planting area. In addition to growing Senzu beans, she also planted vegetables, tomatoes, potatoes and corn, but now only the vegetables can be harvested.
There are no druids on the main island who are good at taking care of plants, so there is no way to speed up the production of crops.
As for why no druids are willing to come, it may be because druids hate dwarf machinery - now the outsiders on the island mainly come here by dwarf airships, and for most druids, asking them to enter a dwarf airship is like a torture.
Xiaobai doesn't have any aversion to dwarf machines. She especially likes the automatic tickler made by the dwarfs. When she lies on the ground, she likes to use the tickler to scratch her back.
But Xiaobai doesn’t know how to grow plants.
However, Rosalie still made full use of Xiaobai's abilities. Now there are a lot of birds on the floating island, all of which were "retained" on the island by Xiaobai using his animal communication skills.
Therefore, the diet of the floating island residents now mainly consists of "magic beans", vegetables, and various bird eggs and bird meat.
At least so far, no one has been found to have health problems due to the single nutritional content of beans.
Rosalie set up a cafeteria in the center of the island, right next to the elevator that went directly up to the central control room, so as soon as the elevator door opened everyone could see the open fire in the "kitchen".
Xiao Bai: "Then we can look for government sponsorship. I think the dwarfs' capital city of Brynden is a good choice. Let that big thing sponsor it!"
The vigilante group member who didn't know much about nutrition was shocked: "That's true. There's no need to understand the things in the outer plane so clearly."
Bobby was stunned when he heard this.
Oscar was amazed: "Not bad, remember to salute. At least you guys look like an army now. It's a pity that it's not neat enough."
Wang asked Gaines, "Is there anything on the island that the dwarves would be interested in?"
Currently, the only one on the island who can open a furnace for alchemy is the top student king in the Mage Tower, so there are very, very few insulating materials.
"What do you think?" Rosalie asked back.
All the members of the Self-Defense Force pointed upward and behind them.
Gaines was shocked: "That would allow the knowledge of the outer plane to spread on a large scale in this plane. Wouldn't that violate some rules of your Mage Tower?"
The main temple is located right in the middle of the island. Combined with the island's flat terrain, he can have a panoramic view of most of the island while sitting at the table in the tavern.
The vigilante member sitting opposite him shrugged and said, "You don't need to understand what the city lord said. It's enough for you to know that this thing exists. The rest is to do what he says."
Xiaobai: "Looks like we are going to plunder the treasury of another country."
At present, it seems that unless Wang works tirelessly to refine countless furnaces of plastic, the goal of bringing electricity to ordinary people's homes on the island for domestic use is basically impossible.
"He has been standing there all night," said a member of the vigilante group. "My children are always imitating him."
The king continued to scratch his head: "Well... I am against the abjuration system, and I cannot copy the abjuration spell scrolls yet. I will buy some through the dwarves' channels."
Gaines: "I'm here to eat. There's only wine in the Cailin Temple, and drinking won't fill you up."
Wang: "Of course, although your training is a level lower than that of the Catalan regular army... maybe several levels, we will make up for it with equipment. Yesterday I taught the dwarves how to make a recharger, and it won't be long before they can make an electric spear."
"Yes, it has aesthetic meanings, as well as electricity and magnetism. It seems that a child went to the place where the city lord taught the dwarves and learned it. Then, the old woman also learned it."
Wang: “How many casualties?”
The voltage and amount of electricity that the dwarves could obtain before were relatively small, so this method was acceptable. Even if there was a short circuit or overload, it generally would not reach the sublimation temperature of the oil.
Wang: “No…”
Atoli nodded and rushed towards the direction of the smoke with two squire knights.
As soon as she left, Rosalie said, "Although we still have a lot of gold coins, I remind you that we have no income now. If we continue to spend like this, it will be gone sooner or later."
Gaines now basically resides in the Temple of Cailin.
The dwarves' insulating material is insulating oil. The circuits on the dwarf airships are all made up of a wire inside and a ceramic tube outside, which is filled with viscous insulating oil.
Wang: "No, we don't have any relevant regulations. We can spread it if we want. Other planeswalkers have also spread knowledge. Look at Li Guang's tribe, huh? Where is Master Li Guang?"
Atoli: "No one died this time, but a few healing spells were used up. Lord Mayor, you really need to take care of the dwarves. Every morning, just after preparing the divine spells, several of them are used up. If we are attacked in the future and there are no healing spells, wouldn't that be embarrassing?"
The king coughed.
“The Council of Master Craftsmen,” Gaines said.
Wang: "I have already told Rosalie to formulate stricter management rules."
The third vigilante took a sip of "Kaelin's Liquor" and joined the conversation: "My wife now sits on a bench outside the boathouse, knitting while watching the lightning from the dwarfs. When I asked her about it, she said she could feel some kind of aesthetic meaning. I don't even know where she learned this word."
If you want to get good insulation materials, you can only use alchemy.
"The children said that the dwarfs were going crazy after class. After class, the curé would always go to the dwarfs several times to treat those who were injured during the experiments."
Wang: "Don't refuse. We have decided that you will be the leader of the dwarfs."
Wang looked up and saw Li Guang standing on top of the "Heavy Defense Unit", doing the same split-leg pose he did when he first met him.
Gaines: "How did I, as the poet-in-residence of the Temple of Cailin, become the representative of the dwarves?"
If you want to get information about the island, there is no better place than the Temple of Cailin.
Wang: "Uh... you're right. As for income... is there anything we can sell on our floating island?"
"Yes, that's it. Hmm? When did you come here?" Xiaobai looked at the bard in confusion.
The king was complaining that the dwarves did not follow his instructions properly when Atoli came hurriedly from the church in the east with two squire knights.
Now that the floating island can provide stable and strong voltage, the dwarves' method has become very dangerous.
"Miss the Curé, you've lost your mind thinking about women. Call her grandma! She's a half-elf, almost five hundred years old."
Rosalie: "No one listens to him."
"That's a lot." Gaines opened his hands. "It's probably this much! But these things can't be exchanged for money. You should have exchanged knowledge for money before."
Wang scratched his head and sighed, "These dwarves, I've told them that when using oil as an insulator, you must be careful not to short-circuit or overload, otherwise it will explode. They just won't listen."
These words were like a spark that immediately sparked the desire of the vigilante group members to discuss, and everyone joined in:
As if in response to the king's words, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the power tower.
The members of the vigilante group who were discussing freely turned around and immediately stood up and saluted: "Lord City Lord!"
Wang: "I can sell a textbook and make money?"
There was a faint glow on the three of them, obviously they were cast under a spell to protect against lightning.
"We did not plunder the treasury of any country," Wang stressed. "These countries voluntarily provided sponsorship for the salvation of the world."
At this time, the three members of the Lancelot Order who had just run away came back, followed by Bobby and several dwarfs.
"These beans are so good that I have no appetite after eating them," said a vigilante group member. "Before eating beans, I have to eat vegetables and bird meat to supplement my nutrition - what the hell is nutrition?"
Members of the vigilante group who had just finished their night shift were sitting at an open-air dining table, eating and chatting.
Gaines glanced at Bobby and said, "Isn't he doing a good job?"
As soon as Atoli saw the king, she began to complain: "Lord City Lord, every time we go to rescue, we have to use a lightning protection scroll, and the church's stock is almost used up. Can you copy some scrolls for us?"
Because this plane has not yet discovered the natural raw materials that can be used to make rubber, there is no rubber. As for plastics, this plane is still at the stage of using crude oil as fuel, and there is almost no chemical industry.
Rosalie: "I will start to formulate the rules today. After our discussion, we decided to let Gaines be the representative of the dwarfs."
One of the group members asked Oscar: "Will this training really help us fight against the Catalan regular army?"
Bobby: "I, I'm trying too."
Wang: "What's in your hand?"
Bobby then remembered that he was holding something, and introduced it attentively: "We have completed the electric shock gun you requested. Just now, there was a small problem during the discharge experiment. Can you... check, inspect it?"
Chapter 274 Characteristics of Dwarf Machinery
The king took the spear and checked the accumulator made by the dwarves.
Bobby explained, "It was an accident when we were charging this thing, but we've taken care of it. The green light in front means it's fully charged.
"Remember to hold the insulating hand guard when discharging."
Wang held the insulating gauntlet and immediately frowned: "What the hell are you doing? The center of gravity is not handled properly. It's too hard to hold this thing like this."
The dwarf craftsmen looked at each other, then looked at Poppy together.
