Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Rune Factory
Time passed by with a toast, and soon after, the feast was over. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Most of the dwarves greeted Moria and Joshua, brushed their beards and left contentedly. After all, in this world, the most important thing between people is the relationship, even the dwarves, through this banquet, they and Joshua, as the lord of Moldavia, know each other, then it is worth the trip.
Of course, many dwarves look at the warriors with a hint of respect when they leave, and the reason is simple - as a human being, it is really rare to see such a large number in a hundred years.
The guests dispersed, and Joshua, whose face was slightly red, also stood up.
Even with his physical fitness and alcohol consumption, after drinking so many dwarven spirits, he was a little unbearable, and now, the warrior felt a little dizzy in his head, so he immediately mobilized the fighting spirit in his body, and suppressed the side effects of alcohol with some regret.
Originally, Joshua drank to enjoy this rare feeling of confusion, but now it can't be, and now, it should be time to deal with business.
Turning around and looking at the other side of the table, the old dwarf and the elf druid were silently staring at each other, Joshua could see that the feeling between Cleel and Moria that they were going to do it at any time had disappeared, although the atmosphere between the two was still very cold and stiff, but it was much more relaxed than before.
"It seems that leaving them a little space to talk is still effective."
He thought so, and then shook his head with some regret: "These two guys seem to have known each other a long time ago? Cleel looked quite young, but he didn't expect to be hundreds of years old. Elves are not good at this, although they are all beauties, but their appearance and age ......"
With this in mind, the warrior walked over to Moria.
"Joshua, the banquet was a bit rude before, and because I met an old friend, I was too focused on catching up with old ......"
Noticing the approach of the warrior, the old dwarf stood up to greet him, and he spoke very bluntly: "Your armor is almost cast, you have come here just to complete the last step, if you don't mind, then you can go to the casting area with me now to complete this final step." ”
"No problem, so let's go now?"
Of course, Joshua would not refuse, although he came here to identify the strange steel crystal, but taking the armor was also one of the goals, the warrior turned to his own knights and Rin behind him and said, "Everyone, move freely, Rin, follow me." ”
"Yes!" "Yes, master."
Generally speaking, the knights were supposed to follow Joshua all the way as a bodyguard, but if something happened that the warriors couldn't deal with, then the knights would definitely be helpless. Therefore, this time Joshua brought these people over, in addition to being a lord without a little bit of momentum, because he wanted to purchase a lot of supplies from the dwarves, and the knights were humanoid porters.
When everyone was ready, the dwarf simply walked out of the town hall, Joshua and Rin following him into the street, and Cleel silently followed behind the warrior.
Joshua didn't care about this little thing, so this strange team of four people passed through the intersections one by one and came to the [Core Forging Area] in the middle of the city.
The so-called core forging area is where the dwarves usually forge weapons, build machinery, and experiment with their new designs, in the words of humans, it is the research and development center plus the weapon test field, and also automatically provides raw materials, which is the most important public place in every large dwarf gathering place, better than the brewery.
The core forging area was extremely large, its shape was like a huge all-metal trapezoidal pyramid, Joshua looked up and down closely, he could see that the bottom of this huge steel creation was submerged into the depths of the earth, and even rooted in the magma pool to absorb the magic of the fire element, and the top of it must have penetrated countless corridors in the way to release heat and ventilate.
This kind of building is rare even on the surface, and the only people who can make such a spectacle underground are the dwarves, the sons of the mountains and the earth.
As the current leader of the Rune Dwarves of the Northlands, Moria's prestige is very high, even with two humans and one elf, the guards patrolling around the core forging area did not stop them, they even raised their hands from a distance to show their respect, and then went around a direction to patrol other positions.
The entrance to the core forging area was a metal arch, and before Joshua entered, the corner of his eye swept to the stone tablet on the side, on which a passage was written in lingua franca.
[Black steel casting furnace - dangerous, if you don't need it, don't approach! ] 】
"Once you're in, it's probably going to be a little uncomfortable."
The old dwarf's reminder was also issued at the same time, and his expression didn't look like a joke: "We are different from the other dwarves' forging areas here, and it is more dangerous. ”
Moriath naturally wouldn't tell a lie, just after the group entered the interior of the core forging area, a hot breath suddenly came to their faces, the extreme heat brought by the dense fire element will make the air dry and scorching, if it is an ordinary person, even breathing will be extremely difficult, and the trachea and lungs will also be damaged, however, the four people who came in at this time are middle-aged three are golden powerhouses, and the other is the human form of the divine machine, this dangerous environment is for these transcendentals, It doesn't seem to have had any impact at all.
Inside the core forging area, there was a bright magical light illuminating, and as everyone went deeper, they could see that in the walls inside it, there were various colors of magical light mist flowing in the translucent crystal pipes, and this huge rune machine was running all the time, emitting a deafening roar.
Joshua observed the equipment around him, the golden-red molten iron flowing through the translucent pipes on his side, and then flowing into various molds not far away, and after the molds were filled, they would be sent into the distance with the automated tracks, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised to see this familiar and unfamiliar scene.
"I didn't expect that the dwarves started the industrialization of magic energy so early, and I originally thought that this place was just a big blacksmith shop, just like other dwarf gathering places, but I really didn't expect it at all, the northern land already had the prototype of a rune factory in 832 years of starfall."
Looking at the neatly arranged steel-making furnaces and various rune equipment around him, Joshua's face was a little surprised, he knew that although these things looked simple, they were the prototypes of those huge machine factories in later generations, looking at these initial models of rune appliances that were rare to see in the future, the warrior's heart couldn't help but feel a little emotional: "The assembly line industrial production has begun to take shape, I don't know if the earliest model of the magic energy casting furnace furnace has been invented, I remember that it seems to be a recent thing, but unfortunately I don't remember it very clearly." ”
The technology on the Microf continent - to be precise, the level of magic is not bad, it is now 832 years of starfall, not to mention the rune factory that the dwarves in front of him have begun to take shape, there are also all kinds of magic energy machines in the Far South Human Kingdom Alliance, that kind of special large-scale alchemy equipment can automatically enchant all kinds of weapons and items, although they are the simplest enchantment magic, but it is also epoch-making progress, and in the Far Sea Holy Mountain, it should now be a super-large anti-national divine magic weapon [Eternal Shining Holy Light] that can only be built after seven years of preparation, This divine weapon was so powerful that even in the middle of the first Abyss Invasion Battle in the future, it destroyed the three legions of demons with one blow, and pulled precious time for other forces on the continent to fight back.
And the Eastern Human Plains, as the base camp of middle-aged mages in the Mycrof Continent, their magic level is very high, even to the point where they can build huge floating cities, and even floating islands, many extreme level archmages are no longer building the magic towers of the past, but gritting their teeth to accumulate resources, planning to build their own floating fortresses, they have even begun to explore the astral boundary, the third version of the large map [Extrastellar Void], was first discovered by a certain archmage's floating fortress.
Moria could see the slightly surprised expression on Joshua's face, and he couldn't help but show a proud smile, and the old dwarf smiled and said, "How, is my well-designed new production method much faster than the previous iron?" Of course, the armor I want to give you is hand-made for you, and this kind of mold is produced quickly, but the quality is not very good, and it can only be used to make weapons of the army standard. ”
"Very good, it can be said that a new era has been ushered in, Master Moria, and for that alone, your name will surely be recorded in the annals of history in the future."
Not to be boastful, Joshua was completely truthful, "However, I don't think you fully understand the potential contained in this system, Rune Factory...... It's not for striking iron, it's for forging weapons. ”
When he said this, the warrior couldn't help but think of the invincible Iron Legion in the alliance of the nations in the future.
"Not crafting weapons?" The old dwarf looked a little puzzled, he frowned, and said strangely, "What can you do then?" ”
"Magical ......, of course"
While the two were talking, the group had already arrived in a hall in the deepest part of the core forging area.
This is the Iron Body's Moria's exclusive forge room.
