Warhammer Fantasy: I Have Total War System

Li Lin stroked the Divine Machine Gun in his hand, his expression subtle.

There were two dents on the barrel and the chamber, one from a blunt object, varying in depth and irregular in shape, as if they had been struck by a rough club like those of an ogre.

Whether this divine musket can truly rival modern firearms is something Li Lin cannot verify, and the system does not provide detailed data.

However, judging from the sophisticated barrel structure and detachable magazine, this thing's rate of fire, power, and range are definitely no less than those of the Iron Hail Gun.

"That's outrageous..."

This weapon reminded Li Lin of equally modern dwarven firearms, helicopters, and airships.

And the Skaven faction's Gatling guns, sniper rifles, and poison mortars.

Warhammer wasn't without advanced firearms and cannons; it's just that, in his memory, the Aurora faction didn't have similar ranged units.

The Aurora of this world is quite different from the one he knew.

With a sigh to himself, Li Lin turned his attention back to the gun in his hand.

This Four-Eyed Divine Machine Army set was acquired from a warehouse next to the sword pool in Wei Qiankun's camp.

The warehouse was surrounded by a protective barrier; a layer of pale silver light flowed like ripples on water, and ordinary people would be repelled if they got too close.

Fortunately, Li Lin was blessed with good fortune. With the pressure of the Ink Lion's protective shield, the restriction shattered completely like a soap bubble.

There were more than a dozen iron boxes in the warehouse, but Li Lin only had time to collect the three closest ones.

If he guesses correctly.

That place should be a repair shop or something similar, a place to store damaged Shenji guns.

But this raises another question.

If Wei Qiankun has a Dragon Palace, why doesn't he store these precious military supplies there?

Even if it's placed outside and protected by barriers, it can never compare to the safety of the Dragon Palace.

"Could it be that his dragon palace is already full?"

wrong.

He could set up an entire large estate, enough to accommodate dozens of sets of military equipment.

Li Lin thought of many explanations, but couldn't come up with a conclusion for the time being. He could only put the Divine Machine Gun back in its box for the time being, and wait to take it to the rats in Yi Ge's workshop to see later.

These weapons sets cannot be used to counter Wei Qiankun; they can only serve as a reminder to Li Lin.

Based on the damage rate, Wei Qiankun's team contains a large number of these extremely terrifying ranged units, and we must be constantly vigilant.

And it wasn't just him.

The Nanyang rebels, who are associated with the Soul Artisan Guild, may also possess similar equipment!

He must have a specific plan to counter these long-range forces.

The black lion can be considered one, but it's far from enough.

Take out the iron box containing three sets of equipment for the Four-Eyed Divine Machine Army separately and place it next to the shimmering Dragon Pearl Stone Pillar.

Li Lin then turned around to examine the remaining rare and precious materials.

There are all sorts of strangely shaped natural minerals, ice crystals that emit a faint pale blue light, iron-black stones with lightning patterns wrapped all over their bodies, and some grayish raw stones hidden in limestone.

Besides ores, there were also scales, horns, and bones of strange beasts, some warm and others emitting cold air.

There are also many medicinal herbs.

In short, Li Lin couldn't recall any of their names.

All he could do was move out a few empty cabinets, sort and store the materials, and wait for Yi Ge to come back and process them.

After tidying up, Li Lin finally had time to sit down and check the task prompts that had popped up earlier.

[New Side Quest 4 - Repeatable: Upgrade Dragon Palace (0/4)]

The Dragon Palace is a divine artifact personally forged by the Dragon Emperor. Its interior is vast and boundless, but due to the passage of time, some of its formations have fallen into disuse. By gathering rare and precious materials and reforging the core of the secret techniques, the Dragon Palace can be restored to its former power.

【所需素材：次元沙（10/30斤），雷铸铁锭（3/12块），月长石粉末（0.5/2斤）.......】

[Rewards: 10 Zhen Dan Chen Dao Points, 500 taels of gold, 500 distributable experience points, and one piece of common quality equipment]

Li Lin jumped up in a start.

Immediately begin rummaging through drawers and cabinets, searching for materials that are as close as possible to the name of the material according to the task list.

Most of them actually matched!

"Dimensional Sand... Isn't this the dimensional stone byproduct that Yi Ge requested on his list?"

Li Lin immediately took out the silk that Yi Ge had given him and examined it. He found that it was almost exactly the same as the materials listed in the system task!

Didn't she say that these were all materials needed to learn "Ultimate Alchemy"?

How come the materials are almost exactly the same as those needed to upgrade the Dragon Palace?

So, Yi Ge already knew how to upgrade the Dragon Palace?

Li Lin suddenly had a strong intuition.

The other party may have known about his Dragon Palace before even making contact with the original body.

Her purpose in following us all the way from the Shangyang Esoteric Sect was to reach the Dragon Palace!

Li Lin plopped down on the ground, lost in thought.

He had not forgotten the tremendous help the other party had provided along the way. He would not have survived the battles at the pass and the stone fortress without Yi Ge's magic.

However, he would not ignore the various unusual things Yi Ge was exhibiting.

Clicking on the opponent's soldier card, Yi Ge's loyalty was only a pitiful twenty points. If converted into morale, it wouldn't be surprising if he panicked and fled at any time.

Li Lin's low loyalty prevented him from viewing her truly crucial skill panel.

The attributes of the mage affairs officers are all very similar, and if they disguise themselves, no one can tell the difference.

However, each mage's spells, personal trait, and mount are distinct characteristics of their faction that cannot be hidden.

Human mages in Warhammer Fantasy would attract the malice and corruption of the High Heavens with every spell they cast.

The Qi-wielding sorcerers of Zhen Dan either learn celestial magic from the Dragon Emperor or are protected by the Dragon Prince, making them much safer than the mages of the Sigma Empire.

But it's not absolute.

Among alchemists who specialize in alchemy, forging, and gunpowder, nine out of ten are also studying forbidden techniques.

No, and is not qualified, to go to the altar of the alchemist in the Qinling Mountains to receive the blessing of the dragon son.

These warlocks are all at risk of being corrupted.

Li Lin wasn't afraid of having a well-known Chaos Sorcerer by his side; he was afraid the other party might harbor malicious intentions and deliberately conceal their identity...

A figure suddenly appeared in the shadows outside the Sinan wagon and began to knock on the bronze body of the wagon, interrupting Li Lin's thoughts.

He held his breath and peered outside, only to find that it was Yi Ge who had returned.

Taking a deep breath, Li Lin did not teleport Yi Ge directly to the inner hall, but instead pulled her into the outer hall where official business was conducted.

On the low table were piles of files and an extinguished oil lamp.

The air still lingered with a strong smell of medicine and blood.

Yi Ge, who returned, was not wearing a skirt.

She stripped off a whole set of armor from the Fengyun Guard and wore it; those female soldiers were already broad-shouldered, so it fit them perfectly.

"Does it look good?" she said sullenly, in a sarcastic tone. "Who said it's easy to take off a set of clothes? I had to kill four tall guys to barely put together a complete outfit."

As soon as she returned to safety, she began to roughly tear at her armor, the white jade plates quickly cracking into powder at her touch.

After removing the last piece of shoulder armor, Yi Ge was left with only a thin inner lining soaked in sweat.

Her alluring face was covered in a layer of dust, and a few small leaves and dried bloodstains were stuck in her hair. Her bangs were stuck to her forehead, and she looked like a British female worker who had just finished her shift in a black-hearted factory during the Industrial Revolution.

"Let's talk after I take a shower." She said, then turned and walked towards her workshop without looking back.

Turning around, she saw that Li Lin was already standing at the entrance of the hall, blocking her way.

The Thunderous sedan chair suddenly appeared, completely sealing off the hall's main entrance.

Yi Ge stopped in her tracks and slowly turned to look at Li Lin, her black eyes gleaming eerily in the shadows.

"How do you know the methods to repair and rebuild the Dragon Palace?" he asked bluntly.

"Did you know I had the Dragon Palace before you even got close to me?" Li Lin's voice was icy, his gaze no less sharp than Yi Ge's. "Or were you here specifically for it?"

Yi Ge remained silent for a moment, then suddenly kicked the disassembled armor aside with a "bang".

She was only wearing her undershirt and slowly walked towards Li Lin.

Li Lin remained completely calm.

Even if he's a nobody, he's still a martial artist. No matter how many tricks Yi Ge has up his sleeve, in close combat, a sorcerer could never be a match for a martial artist.

If Yi Ge suddenly increases the distance at this moment, Li Lin will become nervous.

"Were you serious about what you said before?" she suddenly asked.

"What?"

"Slaughter the Moon Palace, kill the Moon Queen."

Li Lin was speechless for a moment.

He recalled that Yi Ge seemed to be a sorcerer loyal to Binlong, and Binlong was the most beloved dragon prince of the Moon Queen.

His words were enough for any Binlong fan to kill him hundreds of times over.

I glanced again at the other party's loyalty level, which was as low as 20.

Li Lin realized something.

If his subsequent answer does not satisfy the other party.

Only one person can leave this room after that.

No, based on his understanding of Yi Ge, the other party had probably already set up numerous traps in his Dragon Palace.

Once they make their move, it's not impossible that the entire Dragon Palace could be blown to smithereens.

"Should I lie?" Li Lin thought to himself.

Yi Ge approached him step by step, seemingly intentionally not giving him time to think.

If he doesn't answer for a long time, the other party will definitely take action directly.

Li Lin's rationality told him that it was best to lie and play along for the moment, and wait until he could find out Yi Ge's methods before confronting him in another place.

But when he thought of what Wei Qiankun had done, he clenched his fists tightly, and a surge of blood-red anger welled up in his heart.

"Really," he said to Yi Ge, emphasizing each word.

"Every word I said back then was sincere."
