老太太真实CHEAPWINDOWS

Emily knew her mother often did charity work and sometimes even went to other countries for it, so she didn\'t find it weird, "Alright, be careful, Mom…"

She paused for a moment, then said, "And I\'m sorry."

Emily could hear another chuckle as Luca said, "What for sorry?

I\'m your mother, Emily. It\'s alright for you to act spoiled sometimes, although I would appreciate it if it doesn\'t go this long next time.

Alright, I must really go now. Let\'s meet up when I return."

The call then ended with a beep. Emily felt relieved hearing her mother was alright. Noticing the questionable gaze from Olivia and Quartz, Emily explained what happened.

This made both of them look at each other for a moment, making Emily, in turn, feel puzzled. "Is something wrong with what I said?"

Quartz wanted to say something, but Olivia cut in, "Nothing, Emily. You do not need to worry about your mom; it\'s Madam we\'re talking about here; she won\'t take risks with her life."

Emily nodded while she sent a message to Alex to tell him what happened. Quartz had a complicated gaze in her eyes.

Olivia then changed the topic. "By the way, Emily, I didn\'t say this before because Zold was there, but are you sure about the new recruitment system?

This will really change the guild. I doubt it will be like before since we will have many newcomers." She doesn\'t want to say it in front of Zold since it will undermine Emily as Guild leader.

"This... Well, it\'s Alex\'s idea."

Emily also felt like that; she had complained about it before to Alex, but Alex insisted on it, saying just believe him on this.

"He never got close to how the guild worked before, so it\'s no wonder he has thoughts like that. I will talk to him later," Quartz said.

"If Alex decided, I doubt he will change his mind. He is like the leader in that aspect," Olivia replied.

"But still, to change how the guild really works..."

"Just stop it, Quartz. He must have his reasons."

Olivia then turned her gaze toward Emily. "But why does he want to instruct how the guild works? Aren\'t you the guildmaster?"

"Well, I am the guildmaster, but he is the one who had the idea to rebuild the guild. Technically, all the ideas come from him, while I just run the guild," Emily replied.

She then paused for a moment before adding, "To be honest, I don\'t think about it that much, Aunt Oli. He just told me he needs the guild to prepare to go there, and that is what matters to me."

The mention of \'there\' made the discussion solemn again.

Meanwhile, in another place, Luca had just finished the call with Emily. A voice from behind her said, "Is it alright to lie to your daughter like that? You should know the risks with this expedition."

"She is my daughter; she will be alright. You don\'t need to worry about that."

The man behind her chuckled, "To think the war Valkyrie will return to the frontline, I look forward to your performance."

"You should know the deal. I am not coming to help you, Baldy."

"Yeah, yeah, I know. Our goal is the same anyway. We will back you up to look for him, but still, just don\'t put too much hope on it, Luca."

"I know, Baldy. No need to say more," Luca said as her finger touched the ring on her finger.

It was her wedding ring with Edward, but not just a normal ring. She always knew he was still alive from it since the ring would break if Edward really died.

\'Hubby, don\'t blame me. You took too long. I\'m coming to you,\' she mumbled in her mind as she walked toward a private jet waiting for her and the expedition group.

Time passed on.

Alex spent the days optimizing the awe system. He also followed MingYue\'s suggestion, making a larger one for the kids, and placed all those awe boxes and systems in the basement of SGE.

He gave Emily access to enter anytime she wanted.

Emily often came tinkering with the quest and program, as she wanted to instill knowledge in the goblins to make them civilized. This made Alex shake his head, but he let her do as she pleased.

He then started tinkering with the materials from Goblin Hollows. The wood is as strong as normal steel but has the melting point of normal wood.

However, its special characteristic is that it can be infused with mana directly. Normal wood would break if infused with mana; it can only be soaked bit by bit to make it stronger. This wood is called Twilight Willow.

People have tried to regrow it, but they keep failing. Instead, it grows into a different type of plant with different characteristics.

It\'s still a useful resource but has a completely different use.

Using Twilight Willow, Alex can put simple formations into it, making it remember a shape that can be triggered by infusing mana into it.

Alex then used this to help the construction of the Bai Yue Sect by making it memorize a form to build the foundation there. So, they just need to pour and continue with the construction afterward, making it far easier.

As for the ore, it\'s called Moonforge Iron.

It has a low melting point, making it easy to form. But weirdly, when it\'s allowed to absorb moonlight for a specific duration of time, its characteristics start to change, making it far stronger than steel and raising its melting point to a whole new level.

This is useful for crafting weapons, but for now, Alex wants to prioritize people from the sect. Since all of them were under slave contracts with MingYue, this made them be trusted.
