Chapter Eight Hundred and Twenty-Three: Towards the Mining Area(1/2)
When the cold winter wind brings a touch of warmth, the prelude to spring arrives, and the world seems to become brighter.
The morning light shines through the colorful glass, casting a long mythical projection, leaving a dreamy painting on the table.
The man and woman were sitting at the table in the library, quietly turning the pages of the book.
The tall woman wearing a nun's uniform stepped on high heels, making a crisp sound in the silent library, and gradually approached the man and woman.
After she walked to the table, she didn't speak, she just waited quietly with the paperwork in her arms.
Lu Chen flipped through two pages, closed the book about the records of the four ancient gods, and looked up at Sister Sylphy.
"Have you brought the information?"
He had previously asked Sister Sylphy to retrieve the files of night watchmen from various places, saying that he wanted to select a few assistants.
As the fifth Dawn Knight of the Church of Morning Embrace, Lu Chen's hidden power is higher than that of a cardinal, and below that of a special night watchman, he can basically use it at will.
"Please take a look at the Imperial Blade."
Sister Sylphy said respectfully, and a pair of beautiful eyes peeked at the man's profile. Although the man was as scary as the Lord Referee, his masculine handsomeness was still eye-catching.
And she never imagined that a young man who had just arrived in the capital for less than a month would become the fifth Dawn Knight of the empire. This was something unprecedented.
It wasn't until she felt the red-haired girl's gaze that she withdrew her eyes angrily and stood there intently waiting for the result.
Lu Chen quickly flipped through the files. There were not many high-risk night watchmen in the Sistine Empire. There were less than two thousand people in total. It was easy to find the designated target.
After a while, he stopped flipping through the documents, pointed at the person above and said, "Just her, she has a special ability, and she might be helpful to me."
The name of the person on the file is Kakarot. He was a night watchman of civilian origin, but he was very talented. He was only thirty-three years old when he became a high-risk night watchman.
The woman in the portrait looks very young and has twin tails. It is self-evident who she really is.
He had previously promised Kaka to transfer her to the royal capital, so naturally he had not forgotten this matter.
Although he was not ready to immediately hunt down the mysterious origin of the envoy class, it would be easier to plan if he had the information in his hands first.
"Can she do it? I don't think she has any outstanding performance..."
Sister Sylphy stopped mid-sentence, nodded and said, "I will follow your instructions."
As a semi-clerical person who is often responsible for dealing with various people in the church, Sister Sylphy always knows when to ask more questions and when to shut up.
Sister Sylphi stepped on her high heels and left, while Eri Yi, who was sitting opposite Lu Chen, stretched out, leaned on the table again, and looked at Lu Chen sideways lazily.
"My life is so simple..."
Eri Yi said boredly, she was naturally referring to the second part of the main mission.
Her goal in the second stage of the main mission is to become a high-risk night watchman and absorb a mysterious origin above the high-risk level.
With her family background, it is easy to accomplish this, and her own strength is not lacking.
As for absorbing the strange origin, Lu Chen can also help remove those unknown powers. It can be said that it is a free task. The space should want her to have an identity that is convenient for movement.
After all, it is impossible to live a life of paddling in the royal capital as a noble lady. That would be like vacationing in a land abandoned by gods.
"Just finish it before the time limit. The difficult part is to explore the secrets."
Lu Chen smiled and said that Hui Liyi's identity is very suitable for inquiring about the inside information of the royal family.
For example, Eriyi told him two days ago that there may be some changes within the royal family because the heir has to be decided. Although the Sistine family's ruling position is solid, there will always be a lot of trouble in the years when the heir is decided.
Troubles.
In addition, among the country's secret news, there is another point worth noting, that is, the Sistine Empire is likely to go to war with the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery.
Regarding this aspect, Lu Chen also received confirmation from Chu Zihang.
The Kingdom of Steam and Machinery has developed a new type of Titan Soldier IV, and it is said that it has begun preparations for mass production. When the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery's military capabilities increase again, it is likely that the war will begin.
After Lu Chen heard this, he felt that human beings are always stupid creatures. As long as there are different countries, the struggle will never stop.
It is clear that there are greater dangers lurking in this world, but they are thinking about how to fight among themselves to gain a wider territory.
In Chu Zihang's narrative, the country of steam and machinery is not without shadows in the night, but they do not rely on absorbing strange things to strengthen the human body itself, but rely on special industrial creations to deal with those existences.
The Titan Soldier is just one of them, there are also other types of steam devils to expel the weirdness in the night, and the combat method prefers physical expulsion.
Generally speaking, the country of steam and machinery is very efficient in solving problems, because industrial products can be popularized, but it is often difficult to truly kill weirdos and eliminate them.
Because physical methods cannot defeat the will of the ancient gods, even if the weirdness is broken up, it will not be long before it absorbs human negative emotions and rebuilds it.
But this is not the whole situation. According to Chu Zihang, there are a small number of special mechanical creations in the land of steam and machinery. What drives them is not just steam energy, but also special energy.
In the final analysis, it is the country of steam and machinery that integrates the strange origin into the machinery, forming an unknown but controllable killing machine.
This is the case with the Titan Soldier Type IV, which is powered by super weird origins and a super-large steam core called the Heart of the Sun. It can be said to be a war machine born of science and metaphysics.
That huge creation is not bulky. On the contrary, its nerve connection technology is related to weirdness. As long as the pilots have strong mental strength and are not contaminated, they can control it through those terminals as flexibly as they control their own bodies.
Chu Zihang made a significant contribution in the research and development process. Who knows how he did it? Lu Chen wondered if the master of science is really omnipotent?
But Chu Zihang did eventually receive a commendation from the Research Institute of the Land of Steam and Machinery, and became the pilot of the Titan IV prototype.
According to Chu Zihang's assessment, the Titan Soldier Type IV is enough to kill those explorers who have just entered the seventh level, and the scope is probably lower than the top special night watchmen of the Sistine Empire.
In other words, facing special-level night watchmen of Archbishop Kural and Master Yideng's level, the Titan Soldier Type IV can stand up to the battle.
The point is, this country of steam and machinery is considering mass production!
When Lu Chen heard the news, he felt like he was dreaming of returning to his hometown. The biggest advantage of the power of industrial technology is that many weapons can be continuously produced in factories.
It may take many years for them to train a secret blood warrior, but that secret blood warrior may fall under a cheap gun on the battlefield.
The same is true for the Sistine Empire. The total number of special-level night watchmen is just over a hundred years old. Cultivating a special-level night watchman not only requires talent, but also takes a long time. Often, after a special-level night watchman reaches this field, most of them will not survive more than three years.
Ten years, the "use period" is also shorter.
If the Kingdom of Steam and Machinery is really able to produce Titan IV, that is not good news for the Sistine Empire.
Although the Sistine Empire now has top-notch combat power, that is, god-level warriors, who can guarantee that the country of steam and machinery does not have any targeted black technology?
You must know that this country has been dominant in the East for so long, and the Sistine Empire has not been able to do anything against them, which shows that the country of steam and machinery must have a strategic deterrent.
"Are you thinking about Senior Brother Chu?"
Eriki asked. They used sound transmission, and in the library, no one could intercept their words in front of Lu Chen. Even Peter could not do it in person, because this was an area they could not understand.
.
"Whether we go to war or not has nothing to do with us, but the mission may change by then. I won't think about that for now. I'm going to take care of the time-limited things first."
Lu Chen shook his head. If a war breaks out, their team has people on both sides, so there is still a lot of room for maneuver.
But to be honest, Lu Chen hated war, especially civil war among humans.
"Do you need me to accompany you?"
Eriki asked if she really didn't want to be a nun who studied every day and was a good girl at the royal dinner party at night.
Lu Chen pondered for a moment, "Let's say goodbye this time. It's not easy. I always feel that something will happen. If you stay in the capital, I know for sure. If it really doesn't work, I still have a way out."
The upper limit of the difficulty of this side mission is difficult, which means that there is very likely to be a strong seventh-level explorer there in the fairy space. In the chaotic battle between few and many, he is afraid that Eri will be cut into the back row.
Moreover, since he practiced the method of covering the sky, his mysterious sensitivity has become stronger and stronger, and he always feels that this mission will not go smoothly.
Lu Chen is not very arrogant, but he also believes that he should be the most powerful among the explorers who came in the same batch. He feels this way, and he guesses that it may be related to the "unexpected factor".
"Then I will continue to cooperate with Xia Mi and others inside and outside, and exchange information. My exploration speed is almost surpassing yours."
Eriyi smiled brightly. She also gained a lot of world exploration because she investigated many secrets of the royal family and the past of the Morning Embrace Church, all based on Chu Zihang's analysis method.
"That's a good thing."
Lu Chen said with a smile, but in fact, he was already thinking about when to cut down a group of powerful natives to catch up with the progress.
…………
"They are not human beings. They are just wasting their natural resources. How can they do such mining?"
There was a heated discussion on the world public channel of Origin Space, and the speaker was the person who "makes fortune by mining"
"It's just that the method is too crude. How much high-quality mineral resources will be wasted. It makes my heart hurt to see it. The people in the fairy space are not professional at all."
"The coordinates are on the border of the northeastern province of Morse. The hidden mining area here is very rich. Please help me. As long as I can get it back, except for the space we surrendered, my personal income will be split 50-50 with the big boss. I can sign a contract."
‘Live without complaining’ posted on the public channel.
"Who dares to go there? Three seventh-level bosses went there before, but it turned out to be a treasure chest of the dead. No one dares to go there even if it's five, five, or three or seven."
"Why one?"
"Because the shipment rate of Fairy Space is not good, hahaha."
Lu Chen watched the discussion among the explorers on the world public channel and spoke on the public channel, "How many supporters want to dig there?"
Suddenly, the world's public frequency went silent for dozens of seconds.
Because the speaker's nickname is "Godzilla"
After a period of silence, someone carefully typed and asked: "Boss...are you that Godzilla?"
Lu Chen was a little confused. Why, could it be that his nickname is still famous?
To be continued...
