Elves Have Migrated to My Planter

Chapter 166 – New Team (6)

“You seem like a person with a certain position and skills, but is it impossible to convince your father? Although he is a father, she is a daughter.”

“I don’t know the details, but it seems that she is already trying to mediate as much as possible in her own way.”

“The ideal thing for her is to create a situation stable enough for her to leave her people behind.”

Dwarves are not without problems either. The more extreme the method of governance becomes, the more likely it is that there will be a backlash.

Aron, the head of the dwarves who came to Eden, seemed to want to bring those who had such a backlash to Eden like the elves.

The only problem is that the dwarves don’t have many weapons right now.

The special iron weapons they produce using the daggers for hunters are barely enough to consume inside Eden. However, the Dwarves would absolutely oppose smelting by leaking it to the outside.

The gunpowder is also reluctant to leak… Besides, the dwarves have a different disposition from the elves. They cannot be approached in a similar way to elves.

‘Aluminium?’

At that time, while I was on the radio with Serenian, what caught my eye was a small cola can that I was about to drink and crumple up to throw away.

There is one thing that even the most knowledgeable dwarves don’t know about quite a few metals, such as copper and iron, and that is alloys and mass production developed in modern times.

Aluminum is known to be a very rare metal in the past when there was no proper smelting method. To me, it was just a can waiting to be recycled, but it might be of great help to the dwarves like pieces of a dagger.

“Tell the dwarves. That a new metal might fall from the sky. As it is a new metal, the dwarves love it and set a high price for it. If that precious thing flows outward, it will be a good negotiating weapon.”

“Ohhh…”

Of course, it may not be true, but it is worth seeing. When I told Serenian that I was going to give something to her dwarves, she nodded in admiration.

‘What are the existing participants left behind?’

I soon put down the walkie-talkie and saw Serenian moving towards the dwarves in a flowerpot and suddenly thought about it.

What did the existing participants who used this system like me leave for those who followed them?

There was a high probability that the Earth Mother the Dwarves were talking about was also a participant. But so far, I haven’t heard anything special from the other side of the world that I, an Earthling, could recognize.

Even though aluminum smelting was discovered before the game started. Starting from the existence of Mana, no matter how much this world has become a completely different world, it would have been possible to leave something like I am helping the inhabitants of the world in the pot.

[Era Separation and World Stabilization. Satisfying the condition of 12 participants. End of project (year 1200)]

As expected, the word that era separation written at the end of the system log is suspicious. It is clear that there is something systematic about the testimony of the residents who literally accept the Mythical Age, which was a real history, as a myth.

“A meteorite will fall again, is that true?”

“Yes. It will probably fall here and it is said to be a metal meteorite, so it may be of some help to you.”

Serenian immediately turned to Aaron and told him that a meteorite made of metal would come down.

The dwarves were now accustomed to things falling from the sky, so they weren’t too surprised or afraid. It was not uncommon for fate to happen, and people just heard and admired this ‘oracle’ and paid their respects to the sky.

“A new help. Couldn’t it be the metal from which a stronger cannon can be made?”

“I want you to put down your obsession with cannons.”

Shortly thereafter, Aaron and the Dwarf executives dressed in neat clothes and waited for the meteor predicted to fall from the sky, making guesses among themselves and discussing its usefulness.

However, as Aaron pointed out with his eyes wide open, most of the executives, who were artisans, were full of thoughts of making something new.

“Of course we have to see what that meteorite is, but why don’t you think about it a little differently? The things you value are things other dwarves out there also value. Since it’s common for dwarves to trade with each other, I should be able to use it there.”

“Then you’re an elf, but you’re good at thinking like that.”

After following Serenian and hearing her story, Urea clicked her tongue and gave her a different opinion. Just as Eden’s elves and Aaron’s dwarves once traded, can’t it be used as a means to present to other dwarves?

It was quite possible. Unlike the Elves, who were at the level of bartering for necessities, the Dwarves, who wanted a little more, did not hesitate to trade with each other.

“First of all, I decide by seeing what falls from the sky. Look over there!”

Of course, it was right to decide what to do by looking at things. As Aaron, who was looking at the sky, saw something and shouted, something was really falling from the sky to this place.

“Ugh!”

“I fell where I expected. After all, no one is hurt!?”

It was more than 1 cm in diameter and fell into the clearing with an impact.

“I can’t believe it. This is.”

Unlike Serenian and Urea, who looked at it with blank eyes, the Dwarves guessed its identity as soon as they saw it.

Seung-hyeon mobilized his own abilities to put them together as much as possible. It was made of aluminum foil. When he saw the can, he thought about giving him the aluminum, but Seung-hyeon realized that it would be more comfortable to roll up the aluminum foil than to tear the can and give it to him, so Seung-hyeon changed his method.

“Do you know what this is?”

“I know this. I have to know.”

“Then it is not a new substance.”

“But it is very precious. To see it fall in such a gigantic form.”

Aaron, himself a craftsman himself, touched the foil bigger than his body with his hand and sprayed the waves of mana. And he recognized his identity at once.

“We called it mountain silver. Something more valuable than silver, easy to find but very difficult to obtain.”

Aluminium was a precious commodity even for the Dwarves, who had special skills in handling minerals. An object with a color similar to silver, but highly valued. Aaron added that they are especially popular with humans.

“Is it a story that people who love gold and silver get so many things they like more than that?”

“It’s not just humans. There is no race that hates precious metals except elves. Even if it doesn’t help, I can take it and sell it to others.”

As Urea shrugged her shoulders, one of the dwarf artisans gave her a nod. In any case, it was an undeniable fact that they had acquired very valuable items.

“Then, send this money to the Special Operations Forces and Naria, who are currently out of town. It could be used for negotiations.”

“It would be wise to do so. Did you all understand? First of all, it would be better to make it into a coin…no, ingot.”

Aaron affirmed Serenian’s words and ordered the artisans to make this aluminum ingot. Unlike gunpowder or fragments of a dagger, it could leak out without hesitation.

It’s a precious thing that dwarves love to die for, but it wasn’t a miracle substance that couldn’t be obtained at all.

‘…But wouldn’t it be a problem if we release a lot of such valuable items?’

However, Serenian suddenly had an idea when he saw the Dwarves taking out a large amount of finished aluminum ingots.

In the midst of the fact that Eden’s speciality, which is the support of Seung-hyeon, which has virtually no restrictions, is slowly spreading to the continent, he instinctively recalled the aftermath of that.

‘Am I still okay?’

So far, that’s only part of it. However, it is an undeniable fact that the balance of the continent is shaking due to the increasing amount of goods taken out of Eden not only by the Dwarves but also by the Great Forest.

Even Serenian could not predict what economic and social changes it would bring.

“It looks like I received everything.”

“I can only hope that things will work out now.”

In the meantime, all the work was done. The Dwarf Task Force will take the aluminum and use it to fund their activities in effect, persuading those who harbor resentments in the center to bring it to Eden.

And the party, including Ren, soon receive aluminum ingots. If you use them well in negotiations, you can gain an edge and turn the negotiations to your advantage.
