The discussions among the people did not reach a definite conclusion, as they knew very little about the existence of the 'Saint,' and even the concept of this term came from the Elves. They did not really understand what the Elves referred to as the 'Saint.'

In the following days, the Elves were examining the goods brought by Liu Feiyu and Li Xinyue. Although the Lord had already spread the news that 'humans have arrived in Gass City,' Yan Luo and his companions still rarely left their residence.

The Elves seemed to have an innate strong curiosity. Once they knew that humans had come to Gass City, whenever they saw Yan Luo and his group outside, they would ask all sorts of questions, or even try to communicate with them using what they claimed to be self-taught 'human language.'

They felt no fear towards Yan Luo and the others, only curiosity.

An Elf's life is too long, and any interesting matter is worth their full effort to pursue.

Except for Sasa and Yan Luo, no one else had learned the Elf language and were currently striving to learn from Sasa, yet they could not communicate with the Elves.

Fortunately, they stayed in their residence, learning the Elf language from Sasa, and waited for the examination results.

The Elves, although very curious, would not invade others' residences. If Yan Luo and his companions did not appear outside, the Elves would gather at the door to chat, and as they chatted, they would disperse around meal times. Shortly after, a new group of Elves would come by.

They did not find this boring at all. Many Elves who left would return the next day to Yan Luo's residence door, continuing to chat and wait as they did the previous day.

Elves are a species that love novelty but also respect tradition, they like new things but do not despise old things, and they are particularly patient.

They seemed quite honest, reliable, and naive, to the point that Wu Zechuan wondered whether this race even had the concept of 'crime.'

Truth be told, Wu Zechuan liked associating with people of such nature, only if they weren't so much like curious babies, constantly wondering about everything.

On the sixth day after Yan Luo and his group arrived in Gass City, the Elves who worked day and night to examine the goods finally completed their task.

Most of the goods brought by Liu Feiyu were accepted by the Elves. They really liked the clothes, shoes, and various mechanical creations he brought.

Besides the Magic Power measuring device, the game consoles were the most welcomed by the Elves.

Although the Elves could not understand the text on the game consoles, it did not stop them from figuring out how to turn them on and play. Even if they could not understand the prompts, they could keep playing through trial and error.

Elf society's entertainment life cannot be said to be lacking, just somewhat monotonous.

Games are something immensely addictive, not to mention to the Elves with relatively monotonous entertainment lives. Every Elf who reviewed the game consoles without exception fell for them.

However, the Elf World has no power supply, so to play games for a longer time, the Elves would probably first need to introduce a power system.

This is precisely the real reason Liu Feiyu brought the game consoles and other electrical equipment—

they wanted the Elves to rely on humans, only then could they earn more.

Dealing with the Abyssal Believers is a business that requires a lot of money, this time, no matter what, they needed to make a huge profit and, by doing so, draw more allies to join their cause.

After returning to Blue Star, Wu Zechuan would find some linguists for Sasa, letting them help Sasa analyze the Elf language, using artificial intelligence to convert it into a dictionary. This way, the next time they produce goods needed by the Elves, they could incorporate the Elf language in the packaging and content by introducing the dictionary.

"So many?"

The Lord looked at the list in front of him, furrowing his brow slightly.

As the most knowledgeable person in the territory, the Lord clearly saw that humans are more advanced in 'productivity' than the Elves.

—The Lord did not know the term 'productivity,' he merely realized the related concept.

In doing business between Elves and humans, surely it was the Elves who would suffer losses. Over time, if the Elves could not come up with more valuable products, their products would slowly be replaced by human ones, possibly even becoming a vassal of humans.

The Lord was now somewhat regretting he had so hastily agreed to conduct trade with humans back then. At that time, he did not understand humans well enough to make a rash decision.

However, even if he rescinded the order now and chose not to trade with humans, it would not work.

Because some Elves had already shared their experiences with human goods with others, many Elves in Gass City were curious about how human products could change their lives.

Every city of Elves is a huge familiar society, and an Elf who has lived for over a hundred years can almost know every Elf in the city.

So, if the Lord refused to trade with humans, the people would surely question his decision.

It seemed he could only learn from humans...

The Lord secretly made a decision and wrote down his requests on the list.

Soon after, that list reached the hands of Liu Feiyu and Li Xinyue.

Looking at the text on the list, Li Xinyue could not help but take a deep breath.

Although she could not understand it, from the number of characters, it was clear the Elves wanted to purchase various foods produced by the Bao Han Company.

They only produced food, but reaped the already domesticated seeds of plant-type demons and relevant planting methods. If the Elves could not pay, they could exchange with magic tools.

Those magic tools, neither Li Xinyue nor Bao Han Company had use for them, but they could give them to the Pension Association behind Liu Feiyu to handle sales, and transfer the money to Li Xinyue.

It could be said that entering the Elf World this time, Li Xinyue and Bao Han Company were raking in a fortune.

However, compared to the list Li Xinyue received, Liu Feiyu's was the real deal.

He could not recognize the Elf characters yet couldn't help but laugh.

"Profit!"

The list in Liu Feiyu's hand had a total of eighteen pages, each densely packed with text.

To respond as soon as possible, Liu Feiyu handed the list to Sasa for translation assist.

Elf characters are similar to Chinese characters, both derived from hieroglyphics, fitting the characteristics of a native civilization.

Many of the items Liu Feiyu brought were not present in the Elf language, so the Lord had coined many terms. However, the most useful aspect of pictographs is their intuitive meaning; looking at these coined terms, Sasa could easily guess what they represented.

"They want to learn human electricity studies?"

Seeing the Lord's note next to the electricity supply system, Sasa's expression turned a bit curious.

The Lord had immediately noticed the disadvantage of Elf products compared to human products; initially, both parties could achieve a win-win situation, but as trade prolonged, Elf products would gradually lose competitiveness and their added value.

It wouldn't take long before the Elves fell into a trade deficit with humans, leading to their slow decline, potentially becoming vassals of humans.

The Lord's level is too high, realizing the only solution is to learn from humans and rid themselves of human dependency.

He said if humans were unwilling to let them learn, he would refuse the trade.

In the early stages of trade, Elves still held the right to speak, so he must offer humans a choice at this juncture.

Either grow together with them Elves, or both parties ignore each other.

Sasa translated these words for Liu Feiyu, who just moments ago was all smiles, now restrained his expression.

The Pension Association's intention was to let the Elves rely on humans so that they could earn more through the difference.

However, judging by the Lord's intent, if they refused to let Elves learn the technology, the Elves would forgo trade with them.

Not just Gass City, the Lord would also write about this and send it in emails to other Elf cities.

Thinking of this, Liu Feiyu let out a heavy breath, slowly lifting the corner of his mouth.

"Alright! Let them learn then!"

The Elves have so much to learn that even after decades, they couldn't possibly finish it all.

And they, using decades, couldn't they get rid of the Abyssal Believers?

If even such a thing couldn't be achieved, they might as well cut their losses.

Improving productivity for Elves is not something that can be achieved merely by learning electricity studies.

Liu Feiyu is confident that before they eliminate the Abyssal Believers, the Elves would never be able to learn all human knowledge.
