Chapter 294 begins with the two academicians commissioning custom orders.

After listening, Warwick looked excited and nodded, saying:
"clear."
"As long as the weapon works well, it's worth the price."
Adrian and Elder Muyu, who had arrived, also expressed their understanding:
"Reasonable."
After a moment of silence, Adis also let out a low growl.
"Our clan...is not short of money!"
Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay, then it's settled."
"I will have my expert team work with you to finalize the specific design plan..."
Before he could finish speaking, Adis opened his mouth wide.
"Splash—"
A pile of glittering gold coins and energy crystals poured out of its mouth.
It piled up all over the ground, becoming a mountain of gold!
The sunlight shone on the gold coins, reflecting a dazzling light.
The soldiers of the Great Xia Dynasty around them stared wide-eyed.
Holy crap!
"So many gold coins?"
"They also have energy crystals, and it looks like they have various gemstones too!"
"The dragon race... they're incredibly wealthy!"
Lin Mo was also taken aback.
He had sharp eyes and suddenly noticed—
A spatial ring was clearly visible on the tip of Adis's tooth.
Lin Mo: "???"
Wearing a ring on your teeth?
This is...
That's so flashy!
But upon closer reflection, it seems reasonable.
Dragons are born with a love for collecting anything shiny.
Gold coins, gems, magical items...
Their nests must be filled with these things.
They don't have pockets, but they have storage rings, which makes them much more convenient.
Unfortunately, the dragon didn't have fingers... so they put them on its teeth, which was a stroke of genius.
Lin Mo looked at the mountain of gold coins and smiled even more happily. As expected of the dragon race, they could explode with gold coins at the drop of a hat.
Being rich and powerful means being willful.
He turned to look at Zhao Gang and Long Zhan.
The three exchanged a glance, and each saw a smile in the other's eyes.
"Brother Zhao, General Long, what do you think of this renovation business?"
Zhao Gang smiled.
"It can be done."
"Customized weapons are not difficult for us."
"Moreover, the needs of these three races are all very specific."
"If done well, the increase in combat power will be very obvious."
Long Zhan nodded.
"Yes, and this is a good opportunity."
"Through customized services, we can gain a deeper understanding of the fighting styles of different races."
"It will also benefit future cooperation."
Lin Mo grinned.
"Okay, it's settled then."
He turned to look at the representatives of the three tribes.
"The Warwick brothers, General Adrian, and His Excellency Adiz."
"We have noted down your needs."
"Next, we will organize a technical team to design weapons specifically for you, and you will need to cooperate."
"We will send you the design drawings for confirmation once they are completed."
"If there are no problems, we can begin production."
Warwick nodded vigorously.
"good!"
Adrian bowed slightly.
"Thank you, Mr. Lin Mo."
Adis let out a low growl.
Looking at the representatives of the three races before him, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, mixed feelings).
Orcs have to carry cannons.
The elves need a tree fortress.
The dragon needs to be armed.
This scene...
It's simply "magical"!
As long as the weapon is well-designed...
The combat power of these three races will receive an epic boost.
That would naturally reduce the pressure that demons exert on humans, which would be beneficial and harmless!
As for whether it will pose a threat to humanity in the future, Lin Mo doesn't need to consider that.
As Zhao Gang had said before, manufacturing and logistics were both in the hands of Da Xia, so the other side couldn't cause any trouble at all.
Lin Mo turned to look at the guards behind him.
"Wu Suowei, go to the lab and call Academician Qian and Academician Liu over. Tell them that there is a giant dragon for them to study."
Wu Suowei stood at attention and saluted.
"Yes, sir!"
He turned and walked away quickly.

Inside the laboratory.
Qian Zhenhua was wearing goggles, staring at the blood sample of the spirit under the microscope.
Liu Chengen was fiddling with a gene sequencer next to him, muttering to himself.
"The cellular activity of this elf is more than three times higher than that of a human..."
"If we could extract the key factors..."
"Bang bang bang—"
There was a knock on the door.
Wu Suowei pushed open the door and entered.
"Academician Qian, Academician Liu, Commander Lin sent me to call you."
Qian Zhenhua didn't even look up.
"I'm busy. Let someone else handle it."
Liu Chengen waved his hand.
"Yes, yes, we are researching the possibility of comparing and fusing the genetic sequences of elves and humans. This is a cutting-edge topic!"
"Designing weapons is child's play; let other scientists handle that."
Wu Suowei pondered for a moment and said:
"But... five giant dragons, each a hundred meters long, have appeared outside. Chief Lin said you'd be interested."
"!!!"
"!!!"
Qian Zhenhua and Liu Chengen looked up at the same time.
Their eyes lit up instantly.
Liu Chengen threw the test tube in his hand away.
"A dragon?!"
"Five heads?!"
Qian Zhenhua took off his goggles, his voice trembling with excitement.
"Really?!"
Wu Suowei nodded.
"It's absolutely true. We're outside right now, ordering custom-made weapons."
Liu Chengen slammed his fist on the table.
Why didn't you say so sooner!
Wu Suowei: "..."
"Let's go, let's go!" Liu Chengen turned around and rushed outside.
Qian Zhenhua didn't even bother to tidy up the lab bench.
"Xiao Wang! Xiao Li! Grab your gear and come with me!"
Several young assistant researchers looked bewildered.
"Teacher, where are we going?"
"Look at the dragon!"
As Qian Zhenhua spoke, he rushed out the door.
Liu Chengen ran even faster, his white coat billowing in the air.
"Old Qian, slow down, don't fall!"
"You have the nerve to say that to me? You run faster than a rabbit!"
The two academicians, both nearing seventy but not showing signs of aging due to drinking the spring water of life, rushed out like two children fighting over a toy.

Lin Mo saw Qian Zhenhua and Liu Chengen running over breathlessly with a group of assistants from afar.
"Commander Lin!"
"Where's the dragon?!"
As soon as Liu Chengen arrived, he looked around.
Lin Mo pointed into the distance.
Lin Mo had already arranged for the five giant dragons to lie down in an open space.
Its body is hundreds of meters long, and its scales reflect a metallic luster in the sunlight.
Its amber-colored vertical pupils were curiously surveying its surroundings.
Liu Chengen and Qian Zhenhua adjusted their glasses to focus and froze instantly.
"Oh My God……"
"It really is a dragon..."
Their eyes were filled with fervor.
Lin Mo smiled and said:
"Academician Qian, Academician Liu, the reason I called you here today is because I have a few customized requests."
He briefly explained the needs of the orcs, elves, and dragons.
Liu Chengen interrupted him halfway through the conversation.
"etc!"
"You're saying the elves brought treants with them?!"
Lin Mo nodded.
"Yes, a tree-man that's a hundred meters tall, and it can change size."
Liu Chengen: "???"
Qian Zhenhua: "???"
The two exchanged a glance.
The excitement in his eyes was almost overflowing.
"Get bigger or smaller?!"
"Study this! We must study it thoroughly!"
Lin Mo pointed to the strange tree in the distance.
"There it is, go and study it yourselves."
Liu Chengen and Qian Zhenhua rushed over without even saying goodbye.
They didn't care about etiquette at all.
Helpless, Lin Mo immediately ran to catch up.
