When Lin Qian'an saw this building, his expression was very wonderful.
If the quality can be improved with this thing, will he not have to work hard to improve the quality of items in the future?
Immediately, Lin Qian'an threw in a pile of low-quality, ordinary, and sophisticated processing materials and excellent-grade tools, and also threw in a top-quality material.
These things are tumbling in the quality improvement pool, and there is a progress bar above each item showing [Quality is being improved].
Of course, except for that top-quality material.
Lin Qian'an understood clearly that this thing could only be upgraded to the highest level, and then it wouldn't work anymore.
So he used his backhand to salvage the top-quality material again.
Since there was still some time left on the progress bar, Lin Qianan simply built a new quality improvement pool next to it.
After building five quality improvement pools one after another, Lin Qianan stopped.
Each quality improvement pool is filled to the brim with materials.
If this thing can really improve the quality of all items to the best, it will probably be the largest consumption building in the future.
Following Lin Qian'an's observation, the materials in the first quality improvement pool had all been upgraded to a higher quality.
The water inside still kept boiling.
Lin Qian'an calculated the time and found that it would take about an hour to improve a quality.
Then he looked at the durability consumption again.
Then he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
The total number of materials and tools he threw into this pool was about thirty, and now the durability has been reduced by half.
If he wants to rely on the quality improvement pool to mass-produce top-quality materials or equipment, I'm afraid it won't be that easy.
But compared to the past when we could only rely on probability, it is much better now.
Lin Qian'an took out the top-quality materials and tools, put some more high-quality materials inside, and soon began to build a new quality improvement pool.
There is no upper limit to his demand for top quality materials, so the more quality improvement pools he has, the better.
After building fifteen quality improvement pools, Lin Qianan stopped.
Although it is easy to gamble on the best boiling water, Nian's physical strength is also depleted, isn't it?
So Lin Qian'an didn't plan to become fat in one bite.
Looking back, Lin Qianan used his mind to build the black iron again.
Metal materials are the key to unlocking the technology tree.
Lin Qian'an had tried to build a steam engine out of wood or stone before. Even if it had the best skills, its durability would drop like a leaky pot. Even if it worked, it wouldn't last long.
So if you want to unlock the steam engine, you must first unlock the material technology.
The amount of black iron quickly accumulated to a certain level, and Lin Qian'an had already unlocked the blueprint for the small steam engine.
Just change the two materials for processing wood and processing stone into black iron.
Lin Qian'an clicked to add materials, replaced all processed wood and processed stone with black iron, then added processed charcoal and water, and immediately started construction.
Boilers, chains, air pipes, pistons... As construction continued, a small steam engine soon appeared.
Simple steam engine [white]
Quality: ordinary
Durability:622/622
[Instructions: Try boiling water.]
Start up, preheat, the water will boil soon, and the high pressure of steam will start to push the piston to drive the machinery.
Along with the sound of the piston's continuous operation, Lin Qian'an's face also showed joy.
By the way, this thing actually has an achievement, and it has been obtained by Lin Qianan.
[Tip: You have unlocked the achievement [Steam Age], received rewards, item upgrade card [White]*1]
[Steam Age: Develop machines that utilize steam. (Note: This violent roar is so intoxicating!!)]
This white item upgrade card plus the item upgrade card obtained from the [Wind Age] achievement, Lin Qian'an now has two white item upgrade cards.
In other words, he can directly upgrade two green-level items.
However, the items for achievement rewards should be used one at a time. Lin Qianan did not dare to use them indiscriminately. They must be used in key places.
Just like upgrading the library level before.
The first two gray item upgrade cards were used by him to upgrade stone axes and arrows. Now that he thinks about it, it was really a waste.
With the steam engine made of black iron, Lin Qian'an did not need to specifically guide the craftsmen in the village. They spontaneously began to study various machines using steam engines.
Soon there were steam cars transporting goods in the city.
Even in winter, you can still hear the roar of steam engines.
At this time, Lin Qian'an was building roads and rails to pave the way for future steam locomotives. He was also asking craftsmen in the village to study generators.
No matter how useful the steam engine is, electricity is always indispensable.
....
At this point, time begins to accelerate.
In the second year of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
The first steam locomotive was put into trial operation and began to travel hundreds of miles to transport goods. At the same time, the country also preliminary researched on electrical machinery.
Therefore, Lin Qian'an unlocked new achievements.
[Tip: You have unlocked the achievement [Electricity Age], received rewards, item upgrade card [green]*1.]
[Electricity Age: Develop a machine that uses electricity and run it for ten minutes. (Note: The power of lightning!)]
This just shows that there is electricity, but Nianguo is still very backward in the use of electricity. Even conductive materials are made by forcibly imparting them through skill grant books.
As Nian Country continued to develop, the area covered by its influence became larger and larger, surrounding tribes began to be absorbed one by one, and the population began to expand.
This year, after absorbing people from three tribes, Nian City finally exceeded the population of tens of thousands.
At the same time, Nian Guo found a new metal vein and began to smelt other metal materials.
I have been studying for three years.
Oil was discovered, coal mines were also discovered, and a series of technologies were pointed out by the cheating Nianguo people.
At the same time, the population of Nianguo exceeded 30,000, and Niancheng was finally filled with people.
However, this population is still too small.
Five years after the founding of the People's Republic of China, with the accumulation of various top-quality materials, the first aircraft capable of flying in the sky was born.
[Tip: You have unlocked the achievement [Fly into the Sky] and received the reward, Anti-Gravity Badge [Blue]*1.]
[Fly into the sky: stand still in the sky for ten minutes. (Note: It’s so cold here...)]
[Anti-Gravity Badge [Blue]: After wearing it, you can escape the gravity of the planet.]
With this badge, it becomes easier for Lin Qianan to explore the world.
Just let Nian put on the badge and start flying in the sky and explore the map.
Soon, Lin Qian'an saw new tribes and various strange birds, animals, fish and insects.
Lin Qian'an absorbed those new tribes as a population, and tamed the birds, animals, fish and insects that could be domesticated, fed those that could be fed, and studied those that could be studied. Anyway, there was no shortage of them.
Remember the ten years since the founding of the country.
Today, the population of Nianguo has reached 100,000, and it has three cities.
The technology tree has also broken through to the point where electric energy can be easily utilized.
The people of Nianguo no longer worry about food and clothing.
However, after all, the population is still too small, which limits the speed of development.
Because there was no shortage of food, Lin Qian'an also began to spread extraordinary knowledge.
Here, only the three extraordinary methods of martial arts, witchcraft and weapon cultivation can be spread, and the rest are out of place.
And even these three types have some minor problems.
For example, in terms of martial arts, there is no way to practice internal strength. The tendons and Dantian are different. The only way is to improve the qi and blood and temper the body.
As for witchcraft, the spiritual power improved by meditation appears to be quite slow.
Utensil cultivation has the widest adaptability, but there is also a small problem, that is, the cultivation of utensils consumes more energy and spirit, and the effect is poor, and the utensils cannot breed spirituality.
However, although spirituality cannot be born, the utensils can improve their strength and quality through cultivation.
Because of this, a new profession appears here in the "Yunqi Zhenjing" called Yunwu Master.
Specializes in nourishing items and improving their strength and quality.
It is somewhat similar to the quality improvement pool, but is less efficient, but has more possibilities to improve the item level.
By the way, Nian is now at level twenty-eight, and Lin Qian'an has also raised Nian's strength and mental attributes to more than ten points by relying on the top-quality food.
And gained two new skills.
[Power burst: Consume a large amount of physical strength and increase strength by 50% within one minute.]
[Detection: Use mental power to cover 100 meters around to detect the situation. (Note: The detection range increases with the improvement of mental attributes.)]
What I want to say here is that temporary attributes that are blessed by buildings such as cities or external object buffs will not have skills.
It has been fifteen years since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
Under Lin Qian'an's encouragement, the new population has been considerable.
At the same time, he also saw the sea.
The endless ocean filled Lin Qian'an with a desire to explore.
Without thinking, Lin Qianqian directly organized a group of people to start exploring the ocean.
As soon as the ship is built and enters the sea, an achievement is unlocked.
[Tip: You have unlocked the achievement [Age of Sail] and received rewards, sailing ship drawing [white]*1.]
[Age of Sail: Build tools that can sail on the sea. (Note: Heading towards the boundless sea!!)]
Seeing this drawing, Lin Qian'an couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
It’s too late!!
If you wait a little longer, he will have built a nuclear-powered warship. Wouldn't it be funny to give him a blueprint of a sailboat now?
But after thinking about it, Lin Qian'an built a sailboat and took a look.
How should I put it, within the category of wooden boats, it is pretty good, but it is just good. With the current technological level of Nianguo, this thing can only be kept in a museum for viewing.
Maybe if they are all built with top-quality materials, you can take a closer look.
But they all use the best materials, so why would he build such a thing?
In the same year, Nian Guo killed a "Gudong Giant Beast" on land.
It was the "gudong monster" that Wattini said killed Nian's father.
It is huge, more than 20 meters tall. Its round head and tail are more than 60 meters long. It has eight legs under its body. Its body is covered with thick silver-white scales. It weighs at least one hundred tons. It eats
When swallowing, it will make a "gudong" or "gudong" sound, hence the name.
By the way, this guy is a vegetarian and will eat all kinds of leaves and weeds.
Lin Qian'an guessed that the father he read at the beginning might have been accidentally touched by the big guy, and then he had sex.
This guy walked all the way to Nian Guo's mine, destroyed a lot of equipment, and almost caused casualties, so Lin Qian'an had to kill it.
Lin Qian'an didn't take much effort to kill this guy. No matter how big the animal is, it only has one brain. It can be done by locking its eyes and shooting an arrow.
What I want to mention here is that after this battle, the durability of Lin Qian'an's enemy-penetrating arrow has dropped to only two points.
The new [Seek Enemy] Arrow Lin Qianan has never been produced again, and this seems to be almost the last song.
Just when Lin Qian'an was lamenting about the [Search for Enemy] arrows, the scales and armor of the Gudong Beast, uh, now renamed the Earthquake Beast, and other materials had been processed and sent to him.
After just one glance, Lin Qian'an was surprised.
Earthquake Beast Scale Armor [Green]
Quality:Excellent
Durability:526/526
[Explanation: This is a piece of scale armor that has endured many vicissitudes of life.]
Earthquake Hide【Green】
Quality:Excellent
Durability:438/438
[Description: A piece of tough animal skin.]
Earthquake Beast Finger Bone [Green]
Quality:Excellent
Durability:1523/1523
[Explanation: Its ability to withstand pressure is good.]
Earthquake Teeth【Green】
Quality:Excellent
Durability:1448/448
[Explanation: Try using it to make a hammer?]
....
All are green grade materials.
What does this mean?
Lin Qian'an has been playing this game for so long, and basically the materials he encounters are gray and white.
If you want to obtain a green-level item, you must build it with all top-quality white-level materials. Only then can a green-level item be produced.
The green level seems to be a watershed, dividing the line between the extraordinary and the ordinary.
Anyone who reaches the green level proves that it has something unique.
Of course, the fact that the Earthquake Beast can survive in this world with its huge size already explains the problem.
They are all green grade materials. If they are slightly processed and used for construction, will there be higher grade items?
Thinking of this, Lin Qian'an couldn't help but feel that killing this earthquake beast was a waste.
He had been exploring for so long before he saw this earthquake beast. It can be seen that there are probably not many earthquake beasts. He should not kill them hastily. Instead, he should find a way to keep them and feed them, and then find more earthquake beasts.
Let them multiply and provide materials.
Thinking of this, Lin Qian'an decisively chose to read the file, and then began to think of ways to capture and feed the earthquake beast.
In order to successfully capture such a huge beast without damaging its body, Lin Qian'an built a huge metal capture net with the [Restraint] skill, and then dropped it from the sky with a helicopter to cover it.
The Earthquake Beast, shrouded in the metal catching net, was still struggling. Even though the [Restraint] skill greatly restricted its movements, it was still able to pull on the catching net and keep moving forward, causing destruction to pieces of land.
Such a reaction is indeed worthy of the green quality materials on the body.
Seeing the struggling Earthquake Beast, Lin Qian'an immediately implemented the second method.
A large amount of grass feed containing anesthetic drugs was made into large balls and thrown in front of Earthquakemon.
It has the [Seduction] skill, which makes the Earthquake Beast want to eat it.
As expected, the Earthquake Beast was also fooled, and started to eat the grass balls directly.
After eating a straw pellet, it showed no intention of falling down, but continued to struggle.
Lin Qian'an was a little dazed. The dose in this grass ball was deliberately increased by more than ten times. Even a hundred grunt beasts probably fainted, but it had no effect on the earthquake beasts?
Immediately, Lin Qian'an made the second grass ball, and the third grass ball...
Although none of the grass balls in the back had the [Seduction] skill, the Earthquake Beast didn't care about it now and still ate them.
After eating eight grass balls in a row, it staggered to the side and passed out.
Then Lin Qian'an began to build a beast pen on the spot, using thick and high walls to imprison the earthquake beasts, and at the same time, he used skill grant books to give skills to the beast pen.
I was lucky enough to get a [Tame] skill directly.
[Taming: The character of animals raised in captivity will become more gentle and obedient.]
Next, all that remains is feeding and research.
It is obviously very laborious to feed such a large animal, but it is worth it for the green material.
....
Nian Guo Underground Research Institute.
A materials engineer in a white coat reported the results he obtained to Lin Qianan.
[Hardy: Your Majesty, after our research, we found that the digestive system of the earthquake beast is different from that of ordinary creatures. The strength of the digestive juice is unusual. It can dissolve wood and black iron. The energy contained in the cell tissue is far beyond that of ordinary creatures. The energy of meat
It is extremely rich, and the scales themselves are also very special. It is more than ten times harder than the No. 3 alloy we developed not long ago, and it is also extremely tough. We spent some time grinding it into powder and blending it into the previous materials.
, the conductive properties have increased to varying degrees...]
While listening, Lin Qianan also gained some new understanding of this creature.
To be honest, it's ridiculously strong.
There may not even be any natural enemies on this planet.
If you can't hit the eye directly with one blow and destroy the brain, it will definitely not be easy to kill it.
Earthquake Beast is full of treasures, and no part of it is useless.
As long as the remaining earthquake beasts can be found and successfully fed and multiplied, Nian Guo's material science will definitely make great progress.
So Lin Qian'an issued a reward to find traces of the Earthquake Beast.
If you can successfully find the new Earthquake Beast, you will be rewarded heavily.
At the same time, the captured earthquake beast also began to be carefully fed.
The amount of food it eats in a day is exaggerated. Fortunately, it is a vegetarian, and the agricultural technology trees in Nianguo are not weak, so feeding it will not hurt your muscles and bones.
Even after studying the earthquake beast's favorite food, a large area was specially divided to build a pasture and grow the forage that the earthquake beast wanted to eat.
After the earthquake beast received stable food, it had no idea of activity and just stayed in the animal enclosure and slept every day.
The inertia of living things is clearly revealed in it.
Lin Qian'an would also have his hooves trimmed and his scales polished when he had time. This guy's life was many times better than in the wild.
After obtaining its body materials, Lin Qian'an also developed a new material.
An earthquake metal with extremely strong electrical conductivity and high toughness at room temperature.
[Description: A metal material with powerful properties.]
[Superconducting: The conductivity of metal materials to energy becomes stronger. (Skill Level: Intermediate)]
[Intermediate toughness enhancement: The toughness of the material is greatly increased. (Skill level: intermediate)]
The appearance of earthquake metal is silvery white with a little black. Lin Qian'an tried to use it to build some items, and as expected, they were all good.
And the level of the item has also reached the green level.
The only problem now is that there is only one Earthquake Beast. If he can't find the second one later, he will feel uncomfortable.
And if the second one he finds is of the same sex as this one, he will be even more uncomfortable.
Nian Guo hasn't selected the cloned technology tree yet. If this earthquake beast dies, he will cry to death.
Fortunately, Lin Qian'an had better luck. After sending people to search with a helicopter for a period of time, he actually found the second earthquake beast.
This earthquake beast was guided all the way and finally brought back to the country of Nian.
Lin Qian'an was very excited to have her gender explored.
Then I was surprised to find that this was a different gender than the earthquake beast I captured before.
One male and one female.
In this case, there is the possibility of continuing to cultivate it in the future.
After locking the two earthquake beasts together, Lin Qian'an began to think of ways to let them breed the next generation.
After eating and drinking enough, and since they were all mature beasts, a month later, they finally looked at each other and began to reproduce.
Lin Qian'an was paying close attention to this matter, for fear that they would have any problems.
It can be said that the entire country is worried about their affairs.
Not long after, a three-meter-long giant egg was born by the female Earthquake Beast.
It was at this time that Lin Qianan learned that the Earthquake Beast actually lays eggs.
While waiting for the egg to hatch, the people sent by Lin Qian'an successively found the third and fourth earthquake beasts.
However, this time the distance is really far, and the terrain is a bit difficult to handle, so I'm afraid we won't be able to bring them back in a short time.
Lin Qianan simply used Nian to go to the place where the earthquake beast was found, built a separate animal enclosure, and arranged for people to feed it there.
In this way, I have read the country for twenty years.
With childbirth encouraged, the population of Nianguo today has reached more than half a million.
At the same time, the technology tree has also climbed up several times, but due to the lack of population, the infrastructure cannot keep up, so many technologies can only be left alone after being researched.
By the way, this continent has basically been explored.
Even those who went to sea came back two or three times with plant seeds and animals found from overseas islands.
In general, the continent where Nian Guo is located is only over 10 million square kilometers, and on such a large continent, there were only about 100,000 human beings living in the beginning.
The rest are just beasts and stuff.
I can only say that this is really too primitive.
It is also worth mentioning that the number of earthquake beasts Nian Guo feeds has now reached 133.
There are eleven Earthquake Beasts here, all of which are new Earthquake Beasts, and the rest are found throughout the continent.
Currently, these earthquake beasts are distributed throughout the continent, and are fed by thirteen feeding bases, and materials are provided at the same time.
In a desert.
In the nuclear testing base of Nianguo.
Lin Qian'an manipulated Nian to discuss with the senior physical engineer from Nianguo in front of him.
[Read: Through the research on earthquake beasts, we have accumulated enough advanced materials and the theories have been conquered. Why haven’t the experiments started yet? 】
The Nianguo senior engineer with official wizard-level mental power took off the lenses in front of his eyes and wiped them, then shook his head in melancholy.
[Alosei: Your Majesty, the theory is just a theory. In fact, we are still lacking much. We will not be able to succeed for at least ten years. 】
[Read: I just want to know where the difficulty is now? 】
Alosai looked at Nian with some confusion.
[Alosai: Your Majesty, Nian Guo is not short of energy now. You have created so many miracles with your own great power, why do you have to rush it? As long as you give me some more time, you can successfully complete the experiment.
】
[Read: What’s the problem? 】
Alosei heard the sound and fell silent.
After a while, he answered.
[Alosai: It’s still a matter of materials. Several types of seismic metal cannot complete the restraint work well. Our technology still needs to be improved, and we may also need the help of [Skill Grant Book]. 】
[Thinking: Where is the ultimate earthquake metal I built?]
[Alosei: It can’t be restrained for too long. 】
[Thought: What if the quality of the materials was improved to a higher level? 】
Hearing the sound, Alosai fell into silence. He looked at the other engineers working below with a deep expression, and slowly opened his mouth.
[Alosei: Then we may achieve this great miracle in a very barbaric way. 】
