Chapter 1638 What the First President is Searching For
[D-22], Gourmet Continent, Gourmet Research Association Tower, Tammy scratched her hair in pain.

Considering the lifespan of a halfling and her working hours, she can already retire, but the main purpose of [Hermes' Traveling Hat] is to respect the elderly and love the young.

What does it mean to respect the elderly? As long as they can continue to work, they can continue to work. Even if their teeth start to fall out, they will be reimbursed for a new set of gold teeth.

What does it mean to love children? It means to provide jobs to young people with little work experience crazily, so that they can accumulate a lot of work experience in a short period of time and become reliable.

So even though Tammy would be over 80 years old if she were a human, she is still at the forefront of her work.

Originally, the flow of people in the Gourmet Association's tower was average, with only foreigners coming to the Gourmet Continent to hunt. Now there is one more, and the only, temporary transmission channel to the Atlantis Continent, and the flow of people has reached its limit in one go.

Poor girl, she is still working for her childhood dream - a candy house.

"Minister Tammy, there's someone named Theresa who wants to see you."

"No." Tammy was lying on the table, writing with her reading glasses on. Although she was not arrogant, she had a bad temper when she was busy, so you couldn't see her whenever you wanted.

"But she said she was willing to provide the service technology produced by Shendai Technology."

Tammy was stunned, and immediately took off her glasses and ran towards the door.

Which technology of the Age of Gods is the most enviable? The legendary arsenal of god-killing weapons filled with world-class equipment? The weapons with super-powerful firepower? Or the miraculous biotechnology that can clone the body and resurrect people?
None of that, it’s [convenient service].

The biggest difficulty facing [Hermes' Traveling Hat] nowadays is not the lack of customers or goods, but the exact opposite. There are too many customers and too many goods, which has reached a level that cannot be handled by human power.

So far, with the increasing activity of foreigners, the event props exchange office has been overloaded with work for every large-scale event, and even if all employees are dispatched, there will be foreigners complaining about queuing.

Not to mention the merchandise. Just counting the goods consumes huge amounts of manpower and resources, and it is even more difficult to classify and put them on the shelves. Many foreigners get a headache just by looking at the list of goods on paper documents.

All these situations illustrate one thing: with the development of the times and the rapidly expanding market due to the arrival of foreigners, the current [Hermes Traveling Hat] is already overloaded. It is only the good reputation left over from the past that makes foreigners choose to accept and tolerate it.

One day, the stranger will become too much to bear, and the blonde woman standing behind the door with a glow behind her will be the savior who saves it all.

Theresa, a survivor of the Age of Gods.

In fact, someone had long proposed that [Hermes's Travel Hat] seek a solution from the Age of Gods Technology, but there had never been an opportunity. Now they have actually come to us on their own initiative.

Theresa didn't waste any words and took out a sphere, projecting the scene inside the World Engine Fortress where the sphere served strangers, letting the effect of its use speak for itself.

In addition, there is an exchange interface, which is much more convenient than exchanging directly at the counter.

“You can put it here first.”

"Well, that's certainly helpful, but I don't think you've come all the way here to solve our problem." Tammy made an inviting gesture.

She doesn't know much about Theresa, and she only knows bad things about her, such as controlling the Holy Cross Kingdom from behind the scenes and planning to blow up the world. She can be said to be a complete villain.

Even if he has turned over a new leaf now, he still has left behind countless messes buried underground, and no one knows when they will explode.

But this does not prevent Tammy from being willing to make a deal with Theresa. As long as it is within the principles of fairness and recognized rules, anything can be done.

"If you want more ore, I can only regretfully tell you that Hermes's Traveling Cap has completely opened its warehouse for you and there is no more." "No, I have handed over the production line to Chiron now. I came here for something else." Theresa didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

"I'm investigating your first president, Nick Itarion."

When talking about this, Theresa was a little nervous, as she was worried that this was a secret of [Hermes' Traveling Hat].

At the same time, she felt a little regretful. More than 20 years ago, she knew about this person, but she didn't take him seriously, nor did she think his plan could succeed. As a result, she only knew his name now.

"Ah~ That guy."

Fortunately, Tammy acted very relaxed, and her young face even showed the expression of an old man who wanted to eat some melon seeds and chat about the past.

"As you know, there was no household registration in our time, so I don't know where this guy came from. I only know that after he joined our small group, he has been thinking about the transmission tower network plan."

"A network of transmission towers..." Theresa fell into deep thought. This was a rather advanced idea.

For the current era, the most powerful means of transportation imaginable is just a faster vehicle, but the first president thought of a network of transmission towers.

That was a time when space magic was not yet well developed and even living things could not be teleported.

Either the first president was like her, inheriting a developed civilization like the Age of Gods, or he was forced into a corner and started to have wild fantasies.

Tammy ignored Theresa's contemplation and took out the candy from her pocket, unwrapped it and put it in her mouth.

"We all call him a fool, a big kid, because what he said is just a fantasy. But he has been doing it, researching in this direction, using the funds provided by Kullene to invest in a great magician to conduct research on space magic."

“If you can see it, imagine it, but it’s just out of reach, then it’s a dream.”

"If it's so close that it seems like I can just reach it with a little more effort, then that's my goal. Unfortunately..." Tammy held the candy in her mouth, supporting her chin, her eyes filled with the depth of time.

"He's a good man."

"Did he ever tell us the purpose of building the transmission tower network?"

"Why?" Tammy recalled, tapping her forehead with her hand, "Put aside the big promises made to us, and tell the truth..."

"He seems to be looking for something, and to do that he needs to build a connection, to connect them together, or to cross the distance. Oh, he needs to build a passage that can bring them close no matter how far apart they are."

"Anyway, he left something like a treasure map on his tombstone. We, and even Cyrene, don't know what it is."

Looking for something? Theresa's heart moved, as if she had really bumped into it.

"Is there anything more specific?"

Hearing this, Tammy took out a piece of paper, wrote an address and handed it to Theresa.

"You can go to his grave and see that the place where he lived during his lifetime has been preserved by us."
