Every time I come home, my wife is making garbage

Chapter 157: The meaning of the machine

Sunset used a multiple shadow clone technique, filling the sky with her own clones. Sun was surrounded by the clones without being careful, and with two fists he could not beat four hands. He was besieged and beaten by Sunset and dragged down the horizon.

It was dark, but the town of Gilneas was still busy.

The more than one hundred kobolds that were captured became a small problem to deal with.

The 80 kobolds captured last time, plus the more than 200 captured this time, became a brigade of more than kobold slaves.

Servites specially arranged an army to guard them. The number of this army could not be too small, so as to avoid slave riots and harm the guards.

The town of Gilneas only has a population of 200 people, and it is not an easy task to take care of slaves.

Moreover, these more than one hundred newly captured kobolds are all soldiers, and their wives and children are still hiding somewhere in the western forests. Sevi plans to arrange a werewolf raiding team overnight to capture their wives and children as well.

After all, a family should be together.

Sevi was stretched to the limit in terms of military strength and had no other choice but to ask for help from the cat people. Then, Sevi and the chief of the Silver Gradient tribe sat together and discussed in a low voice.

Sevi: "Can you send your cat warriors to the mines to help me guard the kobold slaves?"

Silver Gradient: "As long as Her Majesty the Queen gives the order, I will certainly not refuse. However, our cat-people warriors are prone to slacking off during the day, especially in the sunny afternoons. These guys will easily crawl into the bushes to take a nap. If the slaves run away, don't blame me for not telling you in advance."

Sevi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Then let's do this. Your people will guard at night, and my people will guard during the day."

Silver Gradient: "Werewolves are really convenient. You can move during the day if you want to, and you can move at night if you want to. Are you considered a nocturnal species?"

Sevi: “God knows what it is!”

The two of them discussed here...

the other side!
In a small villa in the Cultural and Creative Park in Shuangqing City.

Elizabeth sat on the balcony with a sad face, looking at the Jialing River rolling in front of her. She didn't pay any attention to what was happening on TV, as her mind was completely focused on the cause of restoring the country.

Zhang Jingyi came over from behind and gently held her slender waist: "What's wrong? Are you still thinking about the Black Hammer Dwarf?"

"Yes!" Elizabeth said, "If I want to restore my country, I can't do it without enough people supporting me. Now I don't dare to fight for the human side, I can only fight for various strange races, and the Black Hammer Dwarves are a very powerful race..."

Zhang Jingyi: "Alas! Honestly, from my point of view, the dwarves hid in the mountains and forests and clearly expressed that they did not want to have anything to do with humans. It is more or less inhumane for us to drag them out to fight."

Elizabeth: “…”

indeed!

She let out a long sigh.

Since her husband said so, she had to give up the idea for the time being.

"Oh, right, husband," Elizabeth said, "We helped the dwarves, and they gave me some rewards, including many gems. The gems contain magic power that can enhance the magic effect. Maybe you can use it."

After saying that, she used the [Telekinesis] magic, and the bag of gems thrown in the corner of the room flew over and fell into Zhang Jingyi's hands.

"By the way, he also gave me an enchanted axe."

Elizabeth waved her hand again, and the [Strength Doubled] enchanted axe flew over.

Zhang Jingyi stretched out his hand in mid-air and caught the big iron axe. Interestingly, he thought the axe was very heavy and it would be a bit difficult for him to hold it. Unexpectedly, a red light surged from the axe handle at the moment of holding it, wrapping Zhang Jingyi's arm and making his strength instantly doubled. He was not overwhelmed when he held a heavy iron axe in one hand.

Zhang Jingyi: "Huh? The enchantment effect is really good."

"Hmm." Elizabeth used a [Detection Spell] and said, "The enchantment effect above is [Strength Multiplier], which can double the user's strength. It's a very powerful enchantment effect. Unfortunately, it is attached to an iron axe."

Elizabeth flicked the side of the axe blade with her finger. "The iron is terrible! Such a good enchantment is wasted."

Zhang Jingyi suddenly became interested. He still remembered that when he was in Xihuang Town, the Blackhearted Mage glanced at the armor he was wearing, and then he said casually: "Ordinary armor without enchantments, no matter how strong the physical defense is, is meaningless..."

This is indeed Zhang Jingyi’s pain point!

Modern technology can help him create extremely impressive armor and weapons, but they only remain at the "physical level" and without any enchantment, they are ultimately not worthy of being considered a high-end product.

Zhang Jingyi was curious and asked, "These dwarves know how to enchant weapons?"

Elizabeth nodded. "Of course. Most of the weapon forging masters on the continent are from the dwarves, with only a very small number from the elves and humans. The dwarves have a strong talent for forging. They are good at making all kinds of weapons, armor, and machinery, and are willing to give everything for them."

Zhang Jingyi's heart itched even more. He had just advised Elizabeth that it was a bit inhumane to involve the dwarves, but now he couldn't help but said, "No, I must make friends with the dwarves. At least I have to learn how to enchant from them."

Elizabeth: "That's a bit difficult. Their attitude... you've seen it, too."

Zhang Jingyi: "The bad attitude is nothing more than our failure to attack their advantage."

Zhang Jingyi had not taken the dwarves seriously, so he had been keeping a distance from the matter. But now he suddenly wanted to make friends with the dwarves, and the human racial talent [Selfishness] immediately took effect.

My brain was spinning rapidly...

When working for your own benefit, your work enthusiasm increases by 100%.

A light bulb suddenly lit up on Zhang Jingyi's forehead: "Wife, you just said that the dwarves are willing to give everything for forging, right?"

Elizabeth: “Yes!”

Zhang Jingyi: "They must be very interested in the amazing machines, right?"

Elizabeth: "Yes, it is an interesting machine that the dwarves work hard to study and learn."

Zhang Jingyi: "Hehehe, then I have something good to show them."

He walked to the bed, quickly pulled out his treasure box from under the bed, rummaged around in it, and soon he found an interesting little toy.

Clockwork frog!

Elizabeth: "What is this? A metal frog?"

Zhang Jingyi turned the spring several times with his hands, put the frog on the ground, and when he loosened his hand, the spring-spring frog started to jump, shaking its head. It jumped a long way away in the blink of an eye.

Elizabeth was puzzled: "What the hell is this? A machine with no meaning!"

Zhang Jingyi laughed: "This is my treasure from my childhood. Let's give it to the dwarves and see their reactions."
