Chapter 870 God Made Weapons

The revolution started in Argos.

From the heart of the kingdom, among the most prosperous cities.

A single spark of fire had already blazed up without knowing when, and the fierce fire swept towards the earth in all directions.

Steelmaking technology, steam technology, cutting machine tools, lifting and transportation... All kinds of advanced technical materials, as well as the corresponding fields and industries, seem to have accelerated time countless times, directly skipping the primitive accumulation and acceleration of the technological revolution. In the stage of development, it just appeared in Argos.

What followed was a massive change sweeping across society.

Just like business simulation and real-time strategy games, it is necessary to rationally allocate the proportion of population and resource positions, and balance output and consumption, so that society can function normally.That's why change will be accompanied by severe labor pains. Because of the shift of the social center of gravity, the originally stable distribution will be disrupted again.

Reality is not a game. It is not a simple click of the mouse to assign the corresponding numbers of the population to the corresponding positions, and the reform process can be completed simply.

It takes time and trial and error to rediscover a suitable social system, and in this process, most people can only passively accept and bear all this.

"I'm not recruiting anymore, I'm not recruiting anymore, let me tell you a few times..."

In the unrecognizable former shipyard, the gate of the current Colossus Armor assembly factory, surrounded by a large group of people, crowded and bustling, pushing and shoving, they are all excited and talking loudly, mixed with various accents Together, you can't hear the specifics at all.

And in front of the steel factory with the gate closed, the person in charge wiped the sweat from his forehead, and under the protection of the guards, he repeated loudly over and over again.

He felt that he was really unlucky today, and encountered such a problem just after he came to inspect.But there is no way, if this group of goddamn thugs really make trouble here and affect the production of the factory behind, he will be the one who suffers in the end.

Repeated loudly several times, the surrounding people finally heard clearly, but they became more dissatisfied and loudly uproared, and the scene was extremely noisy for a while.

They were extremely dissatisfied with this, and the crowd rioted.

For now, due to the short time, the people have not yet felt the pain of social change, but they have definitely felt the impact of it-the shipyard was suddenly closed more than a month ago, and then The makeover has become the so-called "Church of Steam and Machinery", and a large number of craftsmen have to be hired.

There are a large number of craftsmen ten times more than the previous shipyard, and more than a hundred times more.

It's a pity that at that time, they didn't seize the opportunity. After all, they still looked at it according to the previous vision, thinking that the original shipyard had just changed the brand, and they also felt that the job was too unsafe.

After all, where do we need so many ships on weekdays? The market in this era is extremely limited.

It can be said that the only purpose of the shipyard is to repair Argos' warships.

There is no work at all on weekdays, but I can't do without it. Naturally, I won't say how good the salary is, I can only say that I am half-dead and hanging... Now if I do it again, naturally no one will be fooled. Even the craftsmen of the original shipyard who managed to escape from this big pit were beaten to death and refused to enter again.

The result is that the Church of Steam and Machinery, which has been re-listed, can only be acquired from the "outsiders" who have recently come to Argos for pilgrimage and looking for opportunities. After finally gathering enough manpower, it can be re-operated with the highest efficiency. into production.

Of course, it is impossible for everyone to have access to the top secrets about the manufacture of giant mechanical war weapons, but the Church of Steam and Mechanics does not exist purely for this matter.

Because the Colossus is not a country without an industrial foundation, heavy equipment that can be maintained, even if it is built with all the power of the whole country, subsequent maintenance cannot be carried out, so all-round technological changes are necessary.

At least it must be a country with an industrial base to be able to support it.

Therefore, the Church of Steam and Mechanics naturally shoulders such a mission. The core secret is to manufacture giant soldiers, and at the same time, it is also promoting the process of industrialization regardless of cost. Starting from the entire city, it is vigorously carrying out major renovations in various aspects.

Fortunately, this is a high-level magical plane with mythological elements, and it is the power beyond the mundane that promotes all of this, so things can go on smoothly, and there are no jokes that overwhelm the seedlings.

The first to feel this impact was naturally the residents of Argos.

"It's like a dream!"

This is a sentence that has been on the lips of almost everyone since this month. They have seen with their own eyes that the ruling class seems to be crazy, and they want to transform the entire city, and they are really promoting it with a lot of money——

The roads have been re-planned, the various buildings have been bulldozed and rebuilt, steam pipes that are as complicated as spider webs have been laid to every corner of the city, crystal street lamps have been erected on both sides of the spacious main road, and all kinds of strange machines have appeared... …

Some veterans with disabled hands and feet were replaced with those mechanical prosthetic bodies that were either cold or hideous, but the structure was inconceivably exquisite, and without exception, they all had a unique sci-fi beauty. They were rejuvenated, as if they had started a second life... …

There are also all kinds of magical products, in addition to unknown and unfamiliar ones, there are also those that are more in line with their cognition and style, such as various precious books in the past, mass-produced enchanted cold weapons, and ordinary people's lifetime A magical potion that may not be accessible...

It can be said that everything that can be industrialized and mass-produced has quickly entered the right track and has become popular and popular.

It was so beautiful that it was like entering the kingdom of heaven.

And people will never be satisfied. When the people discover that all of this comes from the Church of Steam and Machinery, and although they can get in touch with all the beauty, they still have to pay a certain price, but the craftsmen in the church When you can enjoy this kind of welfare as a matter of course, you will naturally be red-eyed.

Why are those bumpkins from other places treated like this!
This is clearly an opportunity for the Argos!

…………

"No matter how many times I watch it, I always feel that the painting style is too magical..."

Inside the assembly factory, in the highest office, a woman looked down at the commotion at the doorway below through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and couldn't help expressing such emotion.

This is obviously the world of "Battle of the Gods", but now it feels completely different.

"What's the matter, isn't this a magical world?"

The captain sat behind the desk, raised his head upon hearing this, and said with a smile.

"Don't make trouble, captain, you know what I mean." The woman curled her lips and waved her hands.

All kinds of novelties emerge in endlessly. The changes in Argos in the past month are even greater than the changes in the past ten years combined. Inventions such as energy pipelines, mechanical prosthetics, and cement and steel bars Application, it seems that money is pouring out.

The city that was once very ancient Greek style has now completely turned into a steampunk style.

There are many chimneys in the distance, emitting thick soot...

The spacious concrete stone slabs and concrete buildings in the civilian area complement each other, setting off the majestic Greek-style palaces belonging to the royal family on the heights, and there is a sense of time and space confusion...

Brass-cast pipes are scattered and laid, and the steam-powered hub nodes are steaming, wearing ancient Greek-style armor and weapon shields, but the arms or legs may be mechanical prosthetic guards that reflect the texture of steel, patrolling the streets back and forth ...

Although it is still only a prototype, they still feel complicated emotions, and of course the sense of accomplishment is greater, because strictly speaking, all of these are from their handwriting.

The boss is completely a hands-off shopkeeper. If you want resources for resources, you want technology for technology. You have everything. It seems that the main god space has turned into a humanoid power. You can exchange and swipe various things without limit, but it just happens No matter what.

So for more than a month, it was because they were so busy running and running that they had achieved such results abruptly.

"Speaking of which, Captain, have you made up your mind?" The woman pondered for a moment, turned her head to look at the man, and asked.

During this period of time, she and the other three people have successively exchanged for what she wanted, controlled her rationality very well, and did not take the risk of trying to obtain something beyond her ability to bear... the inside The water was so deep that they felt they could not hold on to it.

The mighty power of that existence is completely beyond their imagination. It seems that he is no longer an ordinary god and demon. The exchange list given by him is full of first-class enhancements such as "Universal Emperor" and "God of Myriad Opportunities". It seems that as long as they make up their minds , you can go directly to the sky in one step...

But at what cost?

They don't know, and don't want to know.

Only the captain hadn't made up his mind to make a choice. The four team members were very aware of the entanglement in this man's heart.

The man sighed, and scratched his hair in some pain: "I... I don't know."

Rationality and impulsiveness have been confronting each other these days, and neither can overwhelm the other, but he knows that he has been so entangled, which means that his heart has gradually shown an obvious tendency, and the distance between greed and reason It's not far away.

power...

He is extremely eager for power, and he has never had such an opportunity in front of him. It seems that as long as he signs a contract and delivers his soul, all of this can be exchanged.

"Captain, I... I don't know if I should persuade you, but..." the woman said hesitantly, "The association will come over at some point, you have to make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise, we will Those who lost the initiative..."

"I know..." The man sighed.

It has been a month since the signal was sent out. It seems that nothing has happened, but in fact it is only because the time flow between worlds is not equal. It is very likely that the support of the society is already on the way.

Generally, the core member team is the vanguard, and a demigod leads the team.

If he didn't have enough conditions before their arrival, then the leadership of this world's development would inevitably change hands.

"then you……"

The woman wanted to continue to say something, but immediately noticed some strange atmosphere, like the calm before the storm.

She subconsciously looked out of the window, and with the advantage of height, she could clearly see the sea beyond the harbor. Suddenly, it changed from calm to rough, and the sunny sky was also gloomy and gloomy, and the sun was nowhere to be seen.

It looks like a storm is coming.

"Come here... Huh! It's been a month, if the other side doesn't take any action at all, I will be suspicious!"

The man stood up all of a sudden, knowing that this was the revenge of the main god who had suffered a loss before, but he couldn't be sure whether it was Hades' method or Poseidon's, and why it took so long to let They are all ready to retaliate.

But these are not important anymore, the important thing is...

"Let Perseus prepare immediately and attack at any time! It's time for No. [-] machine to conduct actual combat tests!"

……

……

On the unfathomable bottom of the sea, a huge shadow slowly rises, and the sea surface bulges with high waves, and the outline that is bigger than the entire city is highlighted bit by bit, bringing endless terrifying pressure, just like human beings The most ancient nightmare evil in the depths of genes is approaching the physical world little by little.

In the end, there was a roar, like thousands of thunderbolts exploding at the same time, everyone witnessed it rising from the bottom of the sea with a roar, and everything on the surface of the sea was destroyed.

The huge body, fluttering tentacles, everything is so desperate.

Just as the entire Argos was trembling, all the residents screamed, terrified and desperate, their faces were pale, and even their legs were limp and paralyzed on the ground. Looking at the approaching shadow of despair, they felt that the end of destruction was coming. The moment I got it——

There are also rough waves in the harbor.

A huge mechanical head emerged from the water, and the electronic eyes flashed a frightening red light.

The towering figure of a giant like a demon god broke through the sea and soared into the sky, confronting the approaching giant sea monster without fear, with a huge chainsaw-like weapon several kilometers long in one hand, and a force field-like divine power visible to the naked eye in the other. shield.

This sudden scene shocked everyone!

…………

"That's how it feels!"

Sitting in the cockpit, Perseus, who was connected to the entire giant giant soldier through nerve control, said excitedly that he truly felt the strength of himself at this moment. A whole.

The height of the transcendence brings a wide field of vision, which is probably the field of vision of the "gods", right?
At such a height, seeing how insignificant everything in the mundane world is, coupled with the unparalleled power that can destroy the world and the earth at this moment, he really felt that his mind and courage seemed to have suddenly disappeared. opened up.

That's right!This is the romance of a man!A man should be like this!

I really shouldn't have thought about it before!Life should be like this, everything else is low-level fun!
Perseus, who was extremely excited in his heart, felt the turbulent and infinite power in "himself", let out a roar, manipulated the mecha and went up to it.

The battle between the Giant God Soldiers and the North Sea Giant Monster is about to start!
…………

"No...it shouldn't be like this..."

In the chaotic city of Argos, a fairy-like woman dressed in white stared in a daze at the unrivaled battle taking place on the sea. She came here after her destiny, and finally found her destined hero today...but it made her... What is confusing is what is going on with this style of painting.

the city...

And that demon-like weapon...

Ai'o suddenly had an intuition that she should have taken action a long time ago, and now it was too late.

……

……

Just when everything was in chaos, a dignified, beautiful, bright and moving figure entered the steel factory in the harbor while no one was paying attention.

In the deepest regional space, "she" looked at the huge workshops and production equipment, as well as everything that was incompatible with this world and this era, showing a thoughtful expression: "Too simple equipment... "

"After all, it's just a machine zero whose experimental components outweigh the actual use."

A leisurely voice came from behind.

The magician leaned on the wall, watching the incarnation of the goddess of wisdom visiting the door——

"And almost all the technologies come from the ordinary world. I just assembled them and gave them to them without making any modifications. Naturally, it is very simple."

"Why not?"

The goddess didn't look back, she didn't seem surprised by his arrival, she just asked calmly.

"Because I think you should have a better idea than me in this regard, don't you? The person who knows you best is the enemy, and I am not the enemy of Zeus. I don't know him very well, so the targeted work is Leave it to you to do it."

The magician said in a natural tone.

"Why do you think we will agree?" There was a hint of a smile in the goddess' voice.

"You have delivered the goods to your door now, it would be too hypocritical to ask such a question..."

Xia Ran glanced at a certain direction in the sky, stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation——

"Taking advantage of the time your uncles, brothers and sisters gave you to buy together, Zeus's attention was distracted, please hurry up and do it!"

……

……

"Giant magic."

"It was conceived by Athena, the goddess of wisdom and art, cast and smelted by Hephaestus, the god of fire, forging and crafts, given strength and bravery by Ares, the god of war, and given the power of the sun by Apollo, the god of light. Fire and heat, Poseidon, the god of the sea, gave it the power to fight tsunamis, earthquakes and storms..."

"All the gods bless it together!"

"It is a weapon created by the gods! Only to overthrow the rule of the cruel Zeus! Resist the tyranny of the third king of the gods!"
