"It's me! I'm Marlin!" As soon as the goblin rushed out of the subway, he shouted excitedly to the sound transmission equipment of the steam spider tank, as if he couldn't see the gun barrels pointed at him, and then the tank's gate opened,
The dwarf Zhebu poked his head out from inside, holding a loudspeaker in his hand and shouted with all his strength: "The No. 9 subway line is trapped! Lord Danbo, I want to see the Chief Technician!"
Immediately after, Heras and the others also walked out of the subway entrance. Seeing the densely packed cannon barrels directed at them, Heras couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Glenelenya couldn't help but shake hands, and the Lich was so frightened that his hands shook.
Then he threw the undead female mage down.
"Ah..." Falling to the ground, Edwin let out an untimely groan that attracted everyone's attention.
A huge three-legged turret emerged from the crowd. Three flexible and thick mechanical legs were distributed at the three corners of the chassis. Sufficient steam power supported the huge turret formation above. Commander Danbo's steady voice came from the turret.
came: "Your Excellency, Chief Technician, has gone to Ratchet City, Zhebu, who are those strangers?"
"They saved me, Lord Danbo..." Before Zhebu could finish his words, Goblin Marin couldn't wait to climb out of the steam spider tank and shouted loudly at the huge three-legged turret.
: "Coach Danbo, I am Marin! You proctored my license exam, remember! These people are friends of the new city lord of Lica City! That Amarr is a big shot!"
Heras twitched his lips when he heard this. He was pointed by these gun barrels. Now it was too late for him to keep a low profile. Is this damn goblin going to put him on the fire?
"Pooh, take Jeb to see Technician Mario first." After speaking, Commander Danbo turned off the sound transmission equipment and quietly asked the No. 3 turret fire control position behind him, "Ruen, Rika
Where is the city?" He was a combat expert and did not understand some of the trade knowledge of the Artisan Association. Marin's words made him a little confused.
"Well, it should be one of the cities where the association sells products in the human country. It seems to be the border city established in the Jinshan Abandoned Mine Area? Anyway, it must be within the territory of the Inheji Kingdom." There were two people tied to the No. 3 fire control position.
The cute female dwarf with big braids poked the corner of her mouth and thought for a moment, then answered in a crisp voice.
"Northeridan will start rebuilding soon. We need to import a large amount of various resources and sell our products quickly. Now every product sales point is very important to us, Commander." No. 1 Fire Control Position
A middle-aged male dwarf sitting on the table said seriously: "If it is confirmed that they have a close relationship with the new Lord of Rika, at least don't embarrass them."
"I recognize Marin. He seems to have indeed been sent to the Kingdom of Inheji, but I don't know which city exactly. Before he left, he cried and confessed in front of me." A young man in the second fire control position
The female goblin frowned and said.
"I will investigate with Marin's relatives and friends." Danbo nodded, turned on the sound transmission device again and said: "Stranger, show me your identity documents."
After the dwarf Jeb was picked up by a tracked tank, Heras stood quietly until Danbo's voice came again, and he slowly took out Clarence's letter, stamped on it.
With the seal of the city lord of the Inhegi Kingdom, it was the person who captured Rika during the Wrath of Xingwasa
Behind the city, there are the magic seals remade by the regional governor for the elves, as well as the family letters entrusted to him by the dwarf Nick. Although these are all possible forgeries, combined with the testimonies of the dwarf Jeb and the goblin Marin, the guards of Northeredan
We should be able to make accurate judgments.
A steel claw connected to a hydraulic chain stretched out from the three-legged turret, flexibly grabbed the letters, and then slowly retracted it, sending the letters into the interior of the turret.
Danbo took the letter from the delivery window, scanned it carefully, and found no obvious loopholes, and then continued: "I will send Nick's home letter to his family, strange guests, and residents of Northeredan for now."
It will be placed at the Baku Goblin Wood Processing Base, just walk a little further."
As soon as the commander finished speaking, all the gun barrels pointed at them were put away, making Heras and others breathe a sigh of relief. The Lich picked her up again under the angry eyes of the undead female mage. Heras was about to
Preparing to ask about the request mentioned in the letter, Danbo spoke again: "Also, regarding the latest information on the Disputed Lands, we have classified this information as confidential after the Thunderbird attack. I hope you can understand.
.”
"Uh, Mr. Commander, can I meet with you, the Chief Technician? Without this information, we can't travel through the Land of Conflict." Herath said calmly.
"Guests, our movement information comes from the sentry surveillance robots that are scattered all over the disputed land. The core component that transmits information between them is a kind of magic product. We can only rely on imports of these magic products. In the current trade
If you lose one in the event of an interruption, you will lose one." The commander patiently explained: "Between you
There are several mages in the network. If we give you a real-time information terminal, it is likely to expose the location of those sentry robots. If it causes a lot of damage, we currently do not have the ability to repair this monitoring network, so in the trade of magic products
Before recovery, we cannot let any information terminal be lost to the outside."
"When will trade resume?" Heras continued.
"Northeridan City will be restored when it starts to be rebuilt. Before that, only the Chief Technician has the right to make an exception and give you a terminal, but only if you can convince him." Danbo thought for a while, and then added: "
But I have to remind you that the Chief Technician has been in a very bad mood recently. If you go there rashly, you are likely to be smashed out by him with a wrench and then deported."
Heras was silent for a while after hearing this, and said to the others helplessly: "Let's go to the base to check the situation first." Seeing that no one had any objections, he took the lead and left the subway entrance, and the war machines tacitly gave way to a path.
Way to go.
Just as they passed by the huge three-legged turret, the commander's voice sounded again: "If you are not in a hurry, I suggest that you live temporarily in the wood processing base until the day when the trade line is restored, then you can buy an information terminal.
Already."
"Thank you for your advice, Mr. Commander." Herath raised his head and thanked him, and then walked straight to the base.
The Goblin Wood Processing Base in Baku has been transformed beyond recognition. All the accumulated wood has been built into temporary settlements. However, the wood is obviously not enough. Most of the refugees still set up tents in the open air, so the woodcutters came out in droves to use the latest equipment.
Cutting down all the trees in sight with great efficiency.
Glalenya frowned and looked at the scene of the destruction of the forest. This was undoubtedly very irritating to a traditional elf, but she knew the rules and suppressed her inner displeasure. She stopped looking at that scene.
side.
"Just find a place to live." Herath looked at the crowded resettlement area and shrugged. There was no room for them there.
After saying that, he paused, and the surrounding land began to rise slowly. Rotande saw this and carried Edwin forward. With the combined efforts of the three mages, a simple building made of solidified soil was soon built.
The stone house was built, and every room was even equipped with stone beds.
The surrounding dwarfs and goblins looked at these strange guests with envy. Magic was a power that was almost impossible for them to master. All engineering products involving magic required the import of the most basic alchemical products from elves and humans. This determined the difference between dwarfs and goblins.
Goblins cannot be as closed and exclusive as other forces in the Land of Disputes. In order to develop, they must communicate with the outside world.
While everyone was busy cleaning up the room, Marin brought his family over. The goblin carefully asked Heras to place his family here because they still lived in an open-air tent.
Heras was preparing to build another simple stone house for the goblin's family, when the speakers throughout the base rang at the same time.
"I am Mario, the chief technician! The two electrochemical-powered mechas in charge of the No. 9 subway line have been completely destroyed. An operational error caused the rear section of the No. 9 subway to explode and collapse. The trapped people are facing a shortage of food and medicine.
.”
"The only way now is to evacuate from the entrance of the nearby No. 10 subway line. The rescue team is ready to set off, and the association currently has a vacant electrochemically powered mecha, which is the most advanced model! But it cannot draw an ace to control it.
All expert operators who heard me speak, if you are confident in your driving skills, come to the command center to test it immediately! I solemnly declare that the mission is extremely dangerous! But if the mission is successfully completed,
This electrochemical-powered mecha will be the driver’s personal property!”
Heras was shocked when he heard this, and he immediately came up with a bold idea, but it was indeed feasible if he thought about it carefully.
"Marin! How many people control the electrochemical-powered mecha?" Heras asked calmly.
The goblin thought he was curious after hearing the broadcast, so he said nonchalantly: "There is only one control position, sir. This kind of high-end machine is an integrated single-pilot position, because it cannot be controlled by multiple people."
It is absolutely coordinated, so it is only equipped for ace operators."
"Do you think I can get into the control room?" Heras continued to ask.
His words stunned the goblin, and his eyes began to look dazed.
"Marin!" Heras loudly dragged the goblin out of his daze and repeated: "Can I sit on the console?"
"You...you...sir...I know your magic power is very powerful, but this is two different things from operating machinery..." Marin came back to his senses and looked at it in disbelief.
That Emma guy.
"Can I sit on the console? Don't make me ask a fourth time, Marin!" Herath grabbed the goblin's neck with a bit of annoyance, raised him in front of him and asked again.
"It should... it should be possible... After all, if it is operated by one person, the space in the cockpit should be relatively sufficient..." the goblin said incoherently.
"Rotande, Edwin, you are responsible for helping Marin's family build the stone house." Heras ordered loudly into the stone house, then he turned to the goblin and said: "Take me to the command center, hurry up.
