Chapter 1105 208. Some Problems About the Magic Engraving Machine

Two weeks passed by.

During this period, Luka the tauren and Justus, the descendant of the sea monster, did not wait quietly in the stone room of the underground cave.

On the second day when they came to the underground cave of Xinliu Valley, Luka and Justus got together to discuss it. They didn't know what Justus used to convince the tauren, but the two of them actually carried simple bags, Taking the Harpy Deborah along the light rail in the underground cave, it took a day to come to the surface world of Simwillow Valley.

Instead of taking the newly built cable car in the cave, they walked directly to the exit of the dead tree stump.

In fact, before that, Deborah lived in the underground cave of Xinliu Valley for a long time.

The life of this harpy in Xinliu Valley is not so good. Almost every day, she has to complete the corresponding flight training and physical training according to the requirements of Kalancuo, and she also needs to learn the orc language and the imperial language. This makes Deborah Miserable.

So when the tauren Luka and Justus appeared in Xinliu Valley, the harpy Deborah threw herself into the arms of the tauren Luka and shouted excitedly as if she had seen her relatives. .

So when the tauren and the descendants of the siren decided to visit Simwillow Valley, Deborah became the guide of the tauren Luka and Justus in Simwillow Valley, and led Ruka and Justus through the valley. Enter the big mountain depression of Lixin Willow Valley.

Perhaps it is because there is no difference between day and night in Xinliu Valley, and the tauren and Justus have no sense of time. Perhaps it is because they lived too happily in the valley of Xinliu Valley and traveled too far, waiting for the agreed time , the two did not appear in the square of the underground cave with Deborah.

I have been waiting in front of the underground plaza with Katerina and Kalancuo for more than two hours, but I still haven't seen them.

The orc female warrior obviously couldn't restrain her inner emotions. In the world of Xinliu Valley, this orc queen has always said what she wants.

Kalancuo stood on the square in the underground cave with her hands pinched at the waist. She was wearing a hard leather bust that exposed most of her chest, a pair of sheepskin breeches on her lower body, and long cowhide boots on her feet. Her face looked ugly. The double-edged sword stood next to the stone wall, and the two orc warrior guards moved out little by little calmly. It seemed that no one wanted to provoke the angry Kalancuo.

When Kalancuo is angry, even little Ella will stay away.

The dwarf Bernd shook his head, carried the wine barrel in front of him back to the blacksmith shop, and gave me a wink, meaning to evacuate from the dangerous area first.

When the Yero natives passed through the underground plaza, they were also silent.They carried some goblin slaves to the silk reeling workshop. There are also some problems in the production of the magicweave spider silk. Half of the sixty giant spiders have refused to eat. These giant spiders have been thinned to a pile in the iron cage The hard carapace, the abdomen that was originally like a small room has been completely deflated, and the production of magic-weave spider silk has seriously declined in the past week.

This is also the reason why I had to travel to the Hierro plane earlier.

I don't want to take everyone through the Black Forest, because it's hard work and a waste of time, so taking the airship from Pereira City to Tanton City is the most convenient way. It's just half a month since we left Pereira City last time .

According to the manager of the airport in Pereira City, an airship will fly to Tanton City in half a month.

So we are going to arrive in Tanton City on this magical airship, but because the tauren Luka and the siren descendant Justus did not come back on time, we can only wait quietly in Xinliu Valley.

……

Now the light steel rails have been successfully laid in the underground caves of Xinliu Valley. The dwarf Bernd has recently been building mining carts day and night. Currently, the number of mine carts running on the light steel rails has increased to thirteen, almost every two hours. A mine cart full of long strips of stone arrived at the underground warehouse. The recent job of the [-] Yero natives was to unload these huge granite rocks from the mine cart, and then hang the empty mine cart on the cable, relying on the The inertia of a mine cart full of rocks rushing down from the ground pulls the rope and brings the empty mine cart back to the ground.

The road from the quarry to the orc village has also been laid with light steel rails, but the mine carts on this section of light steel rails have to rely on six hundred barbarian slaves to pull the fibers day and night, and transport the stones and wood from the mountains. Come out, the biggest source of motivation for these barbarian slaves is that every time a cart of stones is transported, they can be exchanged for a gazelle.

The old orc Zewang told Kalancuo that if things go on like this, it won’t be long before those barbarians will eat up all the gazelles on the Xinliugu pasture, so Xinliugu’s top priority is to supply a large amount of meat from outside Food, in addition to meat, the food gap is also very large.

Now the resident population in Xinliu Valley has exceeded the 2000 mark, which means that the food consumed in Xinliu Valley is at least three to four thousand catties per day. The main reason why the food consumption is so huge is that each of the six hundred barbarian slaves is a big eater.

This time, Katerina and I came from the warehouse of the airport town. Fortunately, the plane war did not affect the food supply of each plane. The Green Empire has no food crisis for the time being. Madam Alia’s wheat flour is Purchased from the western provinces of the empire, there are grain transport airships flying from there to the imperial capital almost every week. Each of these large floating airships can almost load tens of thousands of catties of grain.

In addition to wheat flour, Aliya also helped me buy some grains and shrub rice that are easy to store. Grains and shrub rice are more convenient to store.Mrs. Alia helped me rent a warehouse in the airport town for storing grain, and kept the warehouse full at all times. One hundred thousand catties of grain was placed in the warehouse, which could only fill a corner of the warehouse.

There is a flatbed trailer specially transported to the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley. Twenty Yero natives pulled the hemp rope and walked in front, pulling a trailer full of sacks to the stone room where the grain was stored. This kind of sack.

In addition, I also brought over a batch of salted dried fish. Barbarians prefer to eat fish compared to beef and mutton. They will tear this kind of salted fish and throw it into a large pot to cook porridge with oats. In my opinion, the taste is really not very good, but these barbarians like to eat it very much.

These dried yellowtails over one meter in length were transported by Noah from the Emerald Bay Trading Company. His original intention was to use these dried fishes as a specialty of Palestina province and give them to my hometown, Egypt. My relatives and friends in El City, but he didn’t consider that my family and friends add up, and there are not many in El City. I asked Yingli to help me send [-] dried yellowtails back to El City, and the rest Let me bring all the dried fish to Xinliu Valley.

Originally, Yingli heard that I was going to the Yeluo plane this time, and wanted to follow me, but he couldn't let go of the renovation of the new courtyard on the side of the imperial capital. In the end, Yingli decided to stay in the imperial capital.

……

Sitting on the stone bench, I annotated the words on the letter paper and marked them on the drawings of Hextech.

Yesterday, I received a letter from Scholar Mullen. He gave a very detailed explanation of the ancient goblin characters. When the characters gradually became complete sentences, the contents of the notes on this Hextech blueprint surfaced.

"Magic engraving machine, the name of the big machine in the blacksmith's shop?" Katerina leaned over her head, put her chin on my shoulder affectionately, looked at the text on the top of the drawing, and asked me curiously.

"Yeah!" I said.

Who would have imagined that the four old dwarves and a group of dwarf women used the simplest sand-turning mold to cast most of the parts of the magic engraving machine in just one month, and all the parts were used by the lovers and women. The file has been refined and calibrated a little bit. Except for the most suitable part, the power part of the magic metal rune plate and the printing head of the engraving machine, almost everything has been completed.

As for the rune plate of the power part, it needs to be customized at the rune plate workshop. I have a magic rune plate workshop in the imperial capital. As long as the blank is made, I want to plate the metal rune plate with a It is not difficult to add a layer of Mithril, and I can draw the magic circle on the metal rune board by myself.

The dwarf Bernd told me that the print head of these magic printing machines is the most critical part. A print head made of fine steel weighs more than a thousand kilograms, and these print heads cannot be cast, and the metal parts cast by sand casting are hard enough , but lacks fatigue resistance and toughness, that is, the cast parts are too brittle, and the impact force caused by the heavy punching head is very huge. If it is a casting, it is likely to be broken after a few punches.

This kind of printing head must be forged, but the blacksmith shop in the underground cave does not have the production capacity at present, so this part must be purchased in the North Duisburg blacksmith shop in the imperial capital, and Bernd has given the part pattern to me.

However, when I translated the text in the annotation part of the drawing one by one, I realized that the part of the print head is actually far from as simple as we imagined.The biggest technical problems of this magic engraving machine exist here. The forging may be solved by the largest blacksmith shop in the imperial capital, but the final magic metal plated on the printing head is neither high-hardness thorium nor fine gold. , but the most advanced krypton gold.

That's right, there needs to be a layer of krypton gold coating on the printing head, and I need to draw a magic pattern on this layer of krypton gold coating that will make the inscriber feel desperate at a glance. The level of complexity is outrageous. The goblins used five pieces of parchment to describe the five parts of the magic circle, and the coating is krypton gold. This is the most difficult thing to do.

Because so far, the tip of the best magic carving knife I have come into contact with is krypton gold. Krypton gold is very hard. Generally speaking, it is an excellent material for the tip of the magic carving pen. There was once a dwarf Blacksmiths put some krypton into the blade of the weapon, creating a time-honored attribute of the weapon itself that is 'never wears out'.

Of course, "never wear out" does not mean that the blade of the weapon will never wear out. This is just a slightly exaggerated statement, but it is not an exaggeration. It is rare to use a whetstone to increase the sharpness. Generally speaking, this kind of weapon will only need to be sharpened once after a big battle.

If you want to plate a layer of krypton gold on the printing head, regardless of the cost, no metal rune plate workshop in the imperial capital can do this kind of processing technology alone. Bernd told me that the dwarves have the ability to plate gold. Krypton gold technology, but the dwarf kingdom is too far away for me after all.

But now that the magic engraving machine has reached this level, it is naturally impossible to give up halfway, and it is good to find a way to solve the difficulties encountered.

Fortunately, I got a piece of krypton gold from Dennis last time, and now I can just use it. You must know that this thing is not so easy to buy even in the imperial capital. Almost all soldiers hope to have a piece of krypton gold. Gold, because a piece of krypton gold is enough to improve the quality of the weapons in their hands to a higher level.

After clearly marking the annotations on the blueprint of the magic engraving machine, I read it again. From the bottom of my heart, I admire the goblins in the era of Hex technology. This magic engraving machine is the product of the combination of magic and technology thousands of years ago. It was invented by the goblins. The magic machinery created to mass-produce metal rune plates, the complexity of the manufacturing process has completely exceeded my imagination.

He dug out the fist-sized piece of magic krypton gold from his magic pocket, looked it over several times in his hand, and then put the piece of krypton gold back into his pocket.

Afterwards, I dug out the magic notebook of Duke Xiatun Ellie from my magic purse. The first electric magician I saw in this magic notebook was 'Zhi Lei'. That's right, when Sarah... Allie stunned me with this electric magic. This is a rare magic skill for melee attacks. It is very suitable for me to learn, anyway, I think so.

He stretched out his hand in front of his body to draw an electric-type magic circle. Due to the unfamiliar movements, the drawing of the magic circle of 'Zhi Lei' failed.

If you can't do it once, then do it twice, and if you can't do it twice, then practice repeatedly until you can practice.

I chanted magic spells, and kept gathering electric magic elements in the palm of my hand. Unfortunately, the magic circle of the 'blazing thunder' was very different from the water magic skills I had learned in the past. Many magic runes were very important to me. It is said that it is very rusty, so it keeps failing.

I thought to myself: Don’t let me succeed once, as long as I succeed once, I can perfectly remember the fragments of the spell casting, and I will not make mistakes in the future... Lady Luck seems to have heard my prayer, so in the next paragraph For a very long time, I have not succeeded in casting a spell once.

While I was drawing this electric magic skill called 'Blazing Thunder', there was a whistling sound from a cave in the distance, with a strong mountain wind blowing by, a mine full of stones The car rushed out of the dark tunnel. Although the terrain of the cave had become much gentler when entering this section of the cave, the huge impact still made the mine car vibrate violently on the light steel rails. Every time the rails rubbed against each other, there was a spark and a screech.

The dwarf Bernd has built the last part of the track with a reverse slope through repeated experiments, so when the mine car finally stopped, it just stopped at the door of the underground warehouse. At this time, I saw the tauren Luka and The two of Justus jumped off the roof of the mine car. The two of them were dressed as travelers. The hair on their heads was blown into afro by the wind in the cave. They stood beside the mine car and retched...
