Chapter 397 No 46.9-A1235: Army Building Plan

·

The territory has undergone some changes during this time.

It's not an illusion, and you do feel that the temperature is much cooler when you come outside the castle. It is obviously summer. Because the high-level frost elements of "Frost Ridge Village" have moved to your territory.

The new Frost Messenger you have seen is too young, and he is never quite qualified for the job. It may be that the previous Frost Messenger was too charming, and the Frost Mistress could not forget her former lover. Just like what the ancient city market promised

, you just need to buy time, and they will find a way to completely solve this matter: they will trap new frost elemental creatures with lower power and easier to control from other worlds, and then transfer the mistress to a place where druids often gather.

Area──A mountain forest between the maze town and the elven homeland. Only high-level druids can live in harmony with her.

From now on, your territory will always maintain a pleasant spring-like autumn temperature. This is a good thing for all crops nearby. Coverless constant-temperature greenhouses.

As long as she doesn't lose her temper and turn the surrounding area into a snowfield.

"I won't bow. I have a higher title than you and a shorter height than you. If I bow, there is a risk of being trampled to death." The dwarf count clasped his hands on his chest and looked up at you. He is a little shorter than other dwarfs.

, the aura is not small, and the head is full of bright green messy and avant-garde pigtails.

Another change is the arrival of three strange characters.

The leader is this Earl. His title is one level higher than yours but he does not belong to the same king as you. There are only about thirty people in the territory, and they all came to join you.

"Put it up higher. Make it higher."

He tried hard to be at the same height as you when sitting down, so he asked the attendant to fold five cushions on the sofa. He seemed to have something to talk about.

He held his chin, like a little hamster trying to show his presence: "Lord, have you ever heard of a "steam engine"? No? Well, in short, it is a very powerful thing. Even a mere arcane knight cannot understand it.

.I came here for the abundant trading power and metallurgical capabilities of your territory. There are many coal mines in the mountains nearby, right?"

"The three of us belong to the "Heretical Technology Club". Well, we know that we are not popular, so we brought gifts, which are physical objects that can showcase our skills. I hope the lord can see the value contained in them.

"

The dwarf count leads you to the courtyard of the castle and points to a strange-shaped car.

It should be a cart, but it cannot hitch a horse. The front of the cart is lengthened, and there is an iron pipe at the back, which looks like a chimney. It has four wheels.

Look! This epoch-making technological innovation!──He got excited all by himself, struggled to hold a bucket of coal, climbed onto the roof of the car, poured it in, then held a bucket of water, climbed onto the car, poured it in, and stood on tiptoe.

He held an iron rod with his feet and shook it in circles. After struggling for about three to five minutes, his so-called "steam car" roared and roared, and the car body vibrated regularly and powerfully.

He got into the car and operated the complicated wheels and levers. The steam car started and could move forward without horses.

Faster than Annette walks, slower than she runs, subtle.

Alyssa cannot stop the progress of the steam car with her arms, but Julianne can, subtly.

The load capacity is larger than that of an ordinary carriage, but smaller than that of a high-end caravan carriage, which is subtle.

After doing the math, the cost of burning coal is more expensive than raising horses, but it is cheaper than the maintenance cost of a large carriage. It's subtle.

this……

simply……

Forget about deporting him.

Tong En coughed a few times and reminded the dwarf count: "Sir, can't you show your best research results first?"

"What? This steam car is my best achievement!"

"I mean "a drivable steam-powered large headless humanoid construct". Wouldn't that be more practical?"

The dwarf Earl was not happy when he heard this, and pointed at his beloved steam car: "Please! Look clearly! This is an epoch-making transportation vehicle that does not rely on magic or horses at all. It is the fruit of my hard work! It is better than the kind that combines magic with magic."

A mecha robot with half-assed skills is much more awesome!"

Mechanical doll?

On the other side, a dwarf Earl's subject, a dwarf craftsman, drove a thing that looked like a golem, puffing smoke from behind, staggering and almost falling, and walked over.

At first glance, it looks like a two-meter-tall golem, but you can't feel the magic. It has a thick chest, big arms, thick legs, and no head. The driver sits at the neck position. This thing also burns coal and manipulates complex roulette levers.

Driven, mainly by wooden structure, followed by metal frame.

Compared to the steam car, this large robot has attracted the curiosity of many people. Of course, the home mage put down all his work and came to take a closer look. The crowd of melon-eaters watching the excitement blocked the gate of your castle on three floors and three outside.

.

Waving its arms, it can instantly break a small tree, and its huge weight can easily crush a bundle of firewood. Although the robot has no fingers and cannot perform precise operations, it can directly replace its hands with adamantine swords, and then use more

Metal replaces wooden structure to increase defense. This thing is indeed as suggested by Tong En and can be deployed on the battlefield quickly. The best thing is that its construction time is much shorter than the months of a real golem.

.

You approved the training plan for the pilots. Later, some craftsmen will be recruited to learn how to skillfully operate complex wheels and levers. The soldiers must be small in size, otherwise they will not be able to get into the cab.

The dwarf count covered his face and knelt down in frustration. No one could understand the greatness of the steam car.

Creation and invention must at least meet people's needs... With carriages and teleportation arrays, who needs half-baked new means of transportation?

Another dwarf who is also a member of the "Heretical Technology Association" salutes you respectfully, and then takes out a strange-shaped sword hilt - it looks simple but is made of precision craftsmanship, and there is a small protrusion at the end of the hilt.

things.

Press the button near the gauntlet.

A rod-like shape made of radiant energy appeared, but the light was slightly green.

"Lord, this is the "light saber" I made using "green light crystal". This crystal is based on real crystal and processed by my unique alchemy. If pure magic energy is infused with enchantment technology,

Among them, it is charged with energy and then produces high-heat light."

He used his short hands to demonstrate the power of this lightsaber.

Because the sword has almost no weight, it swings extremely fast! He aimed the lightsaber at the wooden stake with the metal plate armor and the shield hanging on it, and then ordered others to take off the armor. The shield and armor left no trace, but

There are obvious dark scorch marks on the wooden stake where the human neck is, and there are also considerable scorch marks on the chest and abdomen covered by armor.

"Because what is generated is magical energy, the attack is judged as "remote contact," so the armor and shield have almost no effect and penetrate directly." The dwarf shook his head of pink curly hair proudly and grinned.

.

Mages have similar arcane spells and can cast spells to summon flaming swords. Since they have no physical body, they are a big threat to enemies wearing heavy armor. The wonderful thing is that this kind of lightsaber does not require wizard qualifications and can be used by everyone, just press a button.

It can be used easily. After the energy stored in the green light crystal in the hilt is used up, it can be simply taken out and replaced with a new crystal, which is very convenient. The premise is that there is a way to charge the crystals in large quantities.

You approved this training plan.

The production of lightsabers is much less time-consuming than real magic weapons, and green light crystals can also be mass-produced. Soldiers do not need to be as strong as conventional warriors, and the requirements are very low.

"It's just that there is a problem."

This pink-haired dwarf scratched his head and demonstrated it to you with the lightsaber in his hand. When a lightsaber soldier faces an enemy attack, he will always subconsciously hold the lightsaber horizontally in front of him to block. This is a cold weapon.

The deep-rooted awareness of people in this era is also the defensive instinct of living things. The problem is that the lightsaber cannot block any swords that are slashing at it, but will penetrate. This is a new type of weapon that can only cut people, but cannot stop it.

In other words, the output of lightsaber soldiers is calculated based on melee units, but the defense is calculated based on long-range units being ridden by the enemy. With high attack and low defense, the death rate is expected to be high.

We can only train new recruits first and then solve the details.

finally,

You decide to form an army of 300 people. This is the maximum size that the territory can bear, and it will inevitably bring a certain degree of load to the territory.

The troop types are divided evenly into four types: wand troopers, pilot troopers, lightsaber troopers, and medics, each with 75 soldiers. Although it is evenly distributed, it is estimated that more than half of them are pilot troopers from a distance. After all, they are steam robots.

Very big.

"Next, I will show you my highest research results!" the pink-haired dwarf said suddenly, and even Tong En had no time to stop him, "Why don't you let me show you? The lightsaber and other things are just rubbish, and the one below is the green light.

The essence of crystal technology. I must let the lord know!"

It's okay if you indicate it.

The dwarf took out a machine that looked like a teapot, and it seemed to have a rather complex structure.

He took a glass of water and placed it directly above the machine. In half a minute, the water boiled.

"How about it, Lord, are you awesome? Haha! Such high-efficiency heating capabilities and thermal conductivity far faster than metal are the essence of green light crystal technology!"

Crackling, Hathaway calculated the cost on the side and handed it to you: Assuming that it boils a bucket of water, including the labor hire fees of firewood, moving water, firewood, iron buckets, and water, it will probably cost

1 gold. Assuming that the same bucket of water is boiled, including the cost of purchasing crystals, processing materials into green light crystals, and manufacturing special machinery materials and hiring craftsmen, it will cost about 35 gold.

Hmm, it's very useful - when you finished saying this, the pink-haired dwarf covered his face and knelt down. No one in this era can sincerely appreciate the true charm of high thermal energy conductors.

Hathaway asked in a low voice: "Why did they run into our territory without incident? Are they wanted?"

"The Earl of Green Hair didn't know where he heard about Chitilati. He happened to be in urgent need of a high-efficiency metallurgical casting production line, which other towns could not meet. The metal castings of the steam engine do not need to be refined, and each piece is exactly the same. Only

Only through repeated production in large quantities can the effect be fully exerted. By the way, Maze Town has strong trading capabilities and there are coal mines nearby." Tong En turned to look at the pink-haired dwarf covering his face in frustration, "The second person is running after Lan

Dunlai. The biggest problem with green light crystals is charging. There are simply not so many mages and enchanters available, and the hiring fee is too high. You can easily buy many ordinary crystals in the town."

You look at the third person from the "Heterodox Technology Club".
