American Comics: Beginning with Luke the Maker

silent city.

Teleport hall.

"Hurry, hurry! Hurry up!" A high-pitched voice with strong excitement shouted loudly. The voice was loud and a bit harsh. The loud voice was like a trumpet, vibrating back and forth in the teleportation hall.

The teleportation hall is now completely open.The interior spaces are layered upon each other and expanded into a vast space.The person shouting was a humanoid creature about three meters tall.He has disproportionate limbs and torso, and is dressed in what looks like a fool's plate armor.Beside him, there were people of the same race as him, all with happy faces, acting as repeaters for the former.

Dwarfs from the Nine Realms!

Since their home planet was polluted by the Abyss and exiled to the void, their not-so-large group has dispersed to the reorganized Nine Realms.A very small number live in other places such as Vanaheim, hiding from the world.Most of the remaining ones, some who pay attention to rules and contracts, abide by the asylum transaction contract they made with Odin, the God King of Asgard, and settled back in the area designated by Odin for them in Asgard. .

The other part are the dwarves who had contact with Luke before and settled down in Silent City.They believe that Luke has an alliance with Odin, the King of the Nine Realms, so there is no significant difference between their joining Luke's forces and building equipment and weapons for Asgard.Anyway, Luke never restricted them and did not allow them to build equipment for Asgardians.

In fact, before the ban was issued, the dwarves in Silent City were extremely free!They can craft equipment and weapons for anyone who comes to Silent City to find them.And business is booming.

Compared with those tribesmen who pay attention to rules and contracts, although these people also attach great importance to contracts, they have a higher pursuit of forging skills and more knowledge of otherworldly materials.

Odin, the God King of the Nine Realms, is a very wealthy and generous leader, but not as much as Luke can give them!At least they can have faster access to first-line alien materials, equipment forging skills, and even forging tools and equipment than their tribesmen who settled in Asgard.

Although there are many technologies and materials that are relatively backward in their eyes and are not even worth mentioning, there are always technologies and tools that make them shine, even beyond their imagination, and are regarded by them as the highest ideal.

The former dwarf forging furnace was destroyed and disappeared along with the mother planet, but soon, the Silent City obtained a replica for them.Even with the unreserved communication from the dwarves, Hyperion, who has thoroughly mastered the dwarf furnace technology, can customize various types of products according to the dwarves' conditions.

Big factory, small pocket.Various.

Coupled with the reputation and forging skills of the dwarves, and the customer flow in Silent City, it can be said that every dwarf in Silent City has an endless list of orders. To put it bluntly, they are the richest people in Silent City. , is absolutely correct.

In addition to purchasing the psychic wine invented and brewed by Quiet City, the dwarves of Silent City threw most of the new currency they earned to Hyperion.

Compared with Asgard, which still shares the same set of forging furnaces, the dwarves who have made a fortune in the Silent City dream of getting a customized furnace of their own.

After all, they are different from the people of Asgard. The people of Asgard only need to serve Asgard.So they don't have any problem with sharing furnaces, and they have been like this for thousands of years.

But they are different.The customers they face are all kinds of strange, coming from various races in the universe and even dimensional races.Their requests were also varied, and the materials they brought were all strange.At this time, the processing of some materials and the forging of equipment have very high requirements for the furnace!

The dwarves' old furnace was a once perfect set of forging equipment. It could supply energy to create an artifact one-on-one, or it could forge batches of standard equipment like a factory.It's fine when you focus on one force and build it alone. In this case, you don't need to worry about task conflicts and other factors.But when there are more customers from different camps and the requirements for the equipment they build are very high, the old furnace’s set of building rules becomes somewhat impractical.

The public ones are public after all. If someone uses them, you need to queue up.You also need to spend time debugging to get the furnace to a point where you are satisfied with it and can forge customer equipment requirements.

Even though Hyperon has upgraded the furnace many times and optimized many steps and processes, the dwarves still find it somewhat inconvenient.So, after the first dwarf who tried to take advantage of the situation and asked Hyperon to customize an independent furnace for himself came forward, all the remaining dwarves suddenly understood and used their savings to place orders with Hyperon.

The dwarves were even smart enough to distinguish their customized independent furnaces from those of other dwarves after some exchanges.For example, one group of dwarves is better at forging a certain type of equipment, and another group of dwarves is good at forging another type of equipment. Then they have a tacit agreement to differentiate the independent furnaces they purchase. This differentiation can reduce their own busyness and also differentiate between customers. group.And the customized furnace can also be more sophisticated and easy to use according to their needs.

For the dwarves in Silent City, their biggest hobby, besides studying forging technology, is to constantly upgrade their furnaces.It has even developed to the point where the furnace level is almost equal to the level of forging technology.

This is of course not 100% accurate.After all, upgrading a stove requires a lot of savings, and savings are linked to the size of the order and customer demand. Either small profits but quick turnover, assembly line production, or private customization and one-to-one service.But dwarves with good forging skills will indeed gradually form a reputation among customers.It is true that there will be more demand, ability, and financial resources to upgrade your own stove.

They also have their own set of judgment rules for custom-made stoves from Hyperen.For example, the dwarf's furnace and the series of furnaces that are upgraded and modified from the dwarf's furnace are considered the first type of furnace and the most common.The best effect is nothing more than being used to forge some artifacts.

Higher-level furnaces can not only forge equipment and so on, but can also be used to forge life and some strange and mysterious things.After they saw this kind of stove in Hyperon's technical customization, they became extremely greedy.In their view, this is a higher level of forging technology, something even beyond the scope of dwarven skills.It is something that expands their horizons and skill limits, allowing them to climb to a higher level.expensive?

That's not a problem!As long as there are customers who come to them to help them build things, they will have a steady stream of new currency flowing into their hands.They are just richer and much better off than their Asgardian counterparts.

But the only disadvantage compared to its Asgardian cousins ​​is that it is a bit busy and busy.Being busy means there are many orders, and the volume is not an internal volume in terms of orders, but a technical volume.Once you work behind closed doors for a period of time and do not communicate with your peers, you will be in a relatively confused stage for a period of time in the future.

There is definitely no shortage of orders. Even if we can't take the best orders, there will still be countless standard orders. For example, the orders from organizations such as Time Administration and SHIELD are endless.But being unable to keep up with the thinking and skills of your companions is a torture for all aspiring dwarf masters. Being left behind if you can't keep up with the first echelon is a torture.

Just like a new set of manufacturing equipment in human society, it requires a set of supporting operating methods and the learning of a period of operating knowledge.If you want to master a new stove perfectly, utilize it, and use it, you naturally need to learn new supporting knowledge.

For example, forging life?They may rely on their past accumulated experience and knowledge to forge some strange life forms that fit their imagination, but this will not bring out the maximum effectiveness of the new furnace at all.

For example, the new furnace called the Origin Furnace in the Hyperion Pavilion can even forge powerful beings such as Asgard in the hands of those who know how to use it. But if it falls into your hands, you can only Forcibly relying on the powerful function of the furnace, some deformed species with many advantages and disadvantages and unstable life forms were forged.You can't even stably forge human life.

Therefore, the dwarves in Silent City are busy all day long, taking orders to build equipment, earning new currency, upgrading their furnaces, and learning more knowledge to expand their forging fields.

The dwarves rely on forging craftsmanship and technology to determine their status and identity. The former dwarf king Ai Cui is undoubtedly at the forefront.He handed over the throne to a certain dwarf in Asgard, and joined the Silent City as a craftsman.He was one of the first dwarves to come into contact with the Silent City. For him, apart from the continuation of his ethnic group, he didn't care about his own identity and status.Compared to Asgard, he is more happy to live in the Silent City. At least here, he can occasionally have a drink with the old Luke and discuss their respective skills.

After conquering the world of Azeroth, obtaining the Origin Forge of Titan skills there, moving it back, analyzing and reconstructing it, thoroughly understanding the technology inside, and making a replica of the Origin Forge, Ai Cui He took the lead in taking out a loan to buy a new furnace, and using the dwarfs from Azeroth as a template, he used the Hyperion version of the Origin Furnace to create several dwarves who were big and round but not tall.

They have inherited the forging talents of the dwarves and can easily get started with all forging-related work. They even have their own thinking and aura, which can provide various forms of considerate help to the dwarf masters during forging.They are not good at fighting, but their strength is astonishing, and their tolerance for various energies is extremely high.Overall, although it is not a powerful being at the mythical level, it is a very suitable helper race for the dwarf master craftsman.

Although my brain is not very good, it is more considerate and easy to use!
This is the unanimous comment of all the dwarves after experiencing these dwarfs!With them, they even solved a lot of their troubles, such as lack of manpower and clumsy apprentices.For some less important and less demanding task orders, after a period of training, the dwarves can even hand them over to this group of dwarves for forging to free up their own time.

Ai Cui's dwarves made all the dwarves who had experienced these dwarfs jealous. They almost couldn't wait to place an order with Ai Cui, wanting him to forge some new dwarf lives and then trade them to them.Many of them even want to order the Origin Furnace like Eitri, and then forge life forms comparable to those of dwarves.

Unfortunately, except for Ai Cui, they all failed the purchase qualification test for the Origin Forge and were eliminated.But Ai Cui, who had passed the test at first, was helpless when faced with the dwarf's order, because the appearance of the dwarf was based on various coincidental factors.Although having a template for reference reduces the difficulty a lot, if you want to reproduce it again, it will also take time to sort it out.

However, the dwarf has already been included in Hyperion's "Forging Equation of Life" list, just waiting for him to compile all the furnace data and submit it as a patent.

What the dwarves are now thinking about is to upgrade their furnace to the origin furnace by purchasing qualifications.But today, they got better news.Hyperion reveals higher level forges.

A world melting pot that can forge the world!

Eitri knew that Hyperion had a plan to create a world melting pot.He even visited the prototype furnace under the guidance of Luke, who was old and stooped like a short old man.In his words, this furnace can forge the world, but mass production is still difficult.

Today, a world melting pot that can wholesale cast the universe has appeared in a new world, and it is about to be moved.It is conceivable that once Hyperon understands the technology of this furnace and integrates it with Hyperon's world furnace, it may be the culmination of all furnaces.It is also the ultimate stove that dwarves dream of!

Of course, this time span may be very far away.Just mastering and upgrading the Origin Forge is enough for them to spend a long time in their lives chasing and learning.But this does not hinder their pursuit and belief in a higher melting pot.Only dwarves like them would be particularly happy and excited about this news.

So at the moment, they spontaneously showed amazing organization and were busy preparing everything in the teleportation hall to cope with and receive the arrival of the world melting pot.

They didn't even know whether the furnace looked like a furnace. After all, whether it was the dwarf's forging furnace or the origin furnace, it had nothing to do with the furnace in the human sense.They don't even know if it has an entity, but this can't stop their imagination and joy.

A blazing halo opened up the sky, and under the full power of the dimensional rainbow bridge in the teleportation hall, vast energy filled every inch of the surrounding space.A large and oppressive object seems to be crossing the border with difficulty. (End of chapter)
