My Magic Age

During this period, the minotaur Luka and the descendant of the siren, Justus, did not wait quietly in the stone chamber of the underground cave.

On the second day after arriving at the underground cave of Xinliu Valley, Luka and Justus got together to discuss. It was unknown what Justus used to convince the minotaur. The two of them actually carried simple bags and took the harpy Deborah along the light rail in the underground cave. It took a day to come to the surface world of Xinliu Valley.

They did not take the newly built cable car in the cave, but walked directly to the exit of the dead tree stump.

In fact, before this, Deborah had lived in the underground cave of Xinliu Valley for a long time.

The life of this harpy in Xinliu Valley was not so good. Almost every day, she had to complete the corresponding flight training and physical training according to Kalancuo's requirements, and also learn Orc and Imperial languages, which made Deborah miserable.

So when the Tauren Luka and Justus appeared in Xinliu Valley, the harpy Deborah threw herself into the arms of the Tauren Luka and shouted excitedly as if she had seen her relatives.

So when the Tauren and the descendants of the siren decided to travel around Xinliu Valley, Deborah became the guide of the Tauren Luka and Justus in Xinliu Valley, and led Luka and Justus into the big valley in Xinliu Valley.

Maybe it was because there was no difference between day and night in Xinliu Valley, the Tauren and Justus had no sense of time, or maybe they were too happy living in the valley of Xinliu Valley and walked too far. When the agreed time came, the two did not appear in the square of the underground cave with Deborah.

Katarina, Kalancuo and I had been waiting in front of the underground square for more than two hours, but we still didn't see them.

The orc female warrior obviously couldn't suppress her emotions. In the world of Xinliu Valley, the orc queen always said what she meant.

Kalancuo stood in the square in the underground cave with her hands on her waist. She was wearing a hard leather half-body armor that exposed most of her breasts, sheepskin breeches on her lower body, and long cowhide boots on her feet. Her face looked not so good. The double-edged sword stood next to the stone wall. The two orc warriors guarded and moved out little by little without making a sound. It seemed that no one wanted to provoke the angry Kalancuo.

When Kalancuo was angry, even little Ella would hide far away.

The dwarf Bernd shook his big head, holding the wine barrel in front of him and returned to the blacksmith shop. He winked at me, meaning to evacuate the dangerous area first.

When the Yelo natives passed through the underground square, they were also silent. They carried some goblin slaves to the silk reeling workshop. Now there are some problems with the production of magic spider silk. Half of the sixty giant spiders have refused to eat. These giant spiders have become so thin in the iron cage that only a pile of hard shells remain. The abdomen that was originally like a small house has completely deflated. The production of magic spider silk has seriously declined in recent weeks.

This is also the reason why I have to travel to the Yerro plane early.

I don’t want to take everyone through the Black Forest, because it is both hard and time-consuming, so taking the airship from Pereira City to Tanton City is the most convenient way. It has been exactly half a month since we left Pereira City last time.

According to the manager of the Pereira City Airport: There will be an airship flying to Tanton City in half a month.

So we are going to take this magic airship to Tanton City, but because the minotaur Luka and the siren descendant Justus did not come back on time, we can only wait quietly in Xinliu Valley.

…

The light steel rails have been successfully laid in the underground caves of Xinliu Valley. The dwarf Bernd has been building mine carts day and night recently. Currently, the number of mine carts running normally on the light steel rails has increased to thirteen. Almost every two hours, a mine cart loaded with long stones arrives at the underground warehouse. The recent work of the seven hundred Yelo natives is to continuously unload these giant granite stones from the mine carts, and then hang the empty mine carts on the cables. Relying on the inertia of the next mine cart full of stone rushing down from the ground, the ropes are pulled to bring the empty mine carts back to the ground.

The road from the quarry to the orc village has also been paved with light steel rails. The mine carts on this section of light steel rails rely on six hundred barbarian slaves to pull the ropes day and night to transport the stones and wood from the mountains. The biggest source of power for these barbarian slaves is that they can exchange a yellow sheep for every cart of stone they transport.

The old orc Zewang told Kalancuo that if this continued, it would not take long for the barbarians to eat up all the yellow sheep on the grassland of Xinliu Valley. Therefore, the most urgent task for Xinliu Valley was to supply a large amount of meat from outside. In addition to meat, the food gap was also very large.

Now the permanent population in Xinliu Valley has exceeded the mark of 2,000 people, which means that the food consumed in Xinliu Valley is at least 3,000 to 4,000 kilograms per day. This is under the premise that a large number of potatoes are planted in the orc village of Xinliu Valley. The main reason for such a huge food consumption is that each of the 600 barbarian slaves is a big eater.

This time, Katarina and I came from the warehouse of the airport town. Fortunately, the plane war did not affect the food supply of each plane. The Green Empire did not have a food crisis for the time being. Mrs. Alia's wheat flour was purchased from the western provinces of the empire. There were almost weekly grain transport airships flying from there to the imperial capital. Each of these large floating airships could carry tens of thousands of kilograms of food.

In addition to wheat flour, Alia also helped me buy some cereals and tree rice that are easier to store. Cereals and tree rice are easier to store. Mrs. Alia helped me rent a warehouse specifically for storing grain in the airport town, and kept the warehouse full at all times. One hundred thousand kilograms of grain placed in the warehouse could only fill a corner of the warehouse.

There is a flatbed trailer specially used for transportation in the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley. Twenty Yero indigenous people walked in front pulling hemp ropes and pulled a trailer full of sacks to the stone room where grain was stored. Got this kind of sack.

In addition, I also brought over a batch of pickled dried salted fish. Barbarians prefer fish to beef and mutton. They will tear this salted fish open and throw it into a large pot to cook porridge with oats. In my opinion, it actually doesn't taste very good, but these barbarians like to eat it very much.

These dried fish, which are more than one meter long, were brought by Noah from the Emerald Bay Trading Company. His original intention was to treat these dried fish as a specialty of Palestina Province and give them to my hometown in Egypt. Relatives and friends over there in Ercheng It’s just that he didn’t consider that all my family and friends combined didn’t have many in Ayr City. I asked Ying Li to help me send 60 dried fish back to Ayr City, and I gave all the remaining dried fish to me. Brought to Xinliu Valley.

Originally, Ying Li heard that I was going to the Hierro plane this time and wanted to follow me, but he couldn't let go of the renovation of the new courtyard in the imperial capital. In the end, Ying Li decided to stay in the imperial capital.

…

Sitting on the stone bench, I marked the words and annotations on the letter paper on Hex Technology's drawings.

I received a letter from Scholar Mullen yesterday. He gave a very detailed explanation of the ancient goblin texts. When the texts were gradually connected into complete sentences, the content of the annotations on this Hextech drawing emerged.

"Magic engraving machine, what's the name of that big machine in the blacksmith shop?" Catalina leaned her head over, put her chin on my shoulder affectionately, looked at the words on the top of the drawing, and asked me curiously.

"Yeah!" I said.

Who would have thought that four old dwarves and a group of dwarf women could cast most of the parts of the Magic Engraving Machine using the simplest sand molds in just one month. All the parts were used by the women. The file has been refined and the size corrected little by little. Except for the power part of the magic metal rune plate and the print head of the engraving machine, which is the most suitable part, almost everything has been completed.

As for the rune board in the power part, you need to go to the rune board workshop to customize it. I have a magic rune board workshop in Imperial City. I just need to make the blank material and want to plate the metal rune board. It is not difficult to create a layer of mithril, and I can draw the magic pattern array on the metal rune board with my own hands.

The dwarf Bernd told me that the printing heads of these magic printing machines are the most critical part. A stamping head made of fine steel weighs more than 1,000 kilograms, and these printing heads cannot be cast. The metal parts cast from sand molds are hard enough. , but lacks fatigue resistance and toughness, that is, the cast parts are too brittle, and the impact force caused by the heavy-weight stamping head is very huge. If it is a casting, it is likely to break after a few punches.

This kind of stamping head must be forged, but the blacksmith shop in the underground cave currently does not have the production capacity, so this part must be purchased at the North Duisburg blacksmith shop in the imperial capital. Bernd has already handed over the drawings of the parts. Got me.

However, when I translated the text in the annotation of the drawing one by one, I discovered that the print head is actually far from as simple as we imagined. The biggest technical problem of this magic engraving machine lies here. The forging may be solved by the largest blacksmith shop in the imperial capital, but the magic metal finally plated on the printing head is neither high-hardness thorium nor fine gold. , but the most advanced krypton gold.

Yes, the printing head needs a layer of krypton gold plating, and I also need to draw a magic pattern array on this layer of krypton gold plating that will make the inscription artist despair at a glance. The complexity is outrageous. The goblins used a total of five pieces of parchment to describe the five parts of the magic circle, and the coating was krypton gold. This was the most difficult thing to do.

Because so far, the tip of the best magic engraving knife I have come across is made of krypton gold. Krypton gold has very high hardness and is generally an excellent material for making the tip of magic engraving pens. There once was a dwarf The blacksmith put some krypton into the blade of the weapon, creating a prestigious weapon with its own property of 'never wear out'.

Of course, 'never wear' does not mean that the edge of the weapon will never wear out. This is just a slightly exaggerated statement. In fact, it is not that exaggerated. After the edge of the weapon is mixed with krypton gold, it is really It is rare to use a whetstone to increase the sharpness. Generally speaking, this kind of weapon will only need to be polished after a battle.

If you want to coat the printing head with a layer of krypton gold, regardless of the cost issue, no metal rune plate workshop in the imperial capital can do this processing technology alone. Bernd told me that the dwarves have the ability to coat the printing head with krypton gold. Kryptonian gold technology, but the dwarf country is a little too far for me after all.

However, since the magic engraving machine has been developed to this extent, it is naturally impossible to give up halfway. Just find a way to solve the difficulties encountered.

Luckily, I got a piece of krypton gold from Dennis last time, and now I can use it. You know, this thing is not so easy to buy even in the imperial capital. Almost all warriors want a piece of krypton gold, because a piece of krypton gold can upgrade the quality of their weapons.

After marking the notes on the magic engraving machine drawing, I looked at it and admired the goblins of the Hextech era from the bottom of my heart. This magic engraving machine is a product of the combination of magic and technology thousands of years ago. It is a magic machine invented by the goblins that can mass-produce metal rune plates. The complexity of the manufacturing process has completely exceeded my imagination.

I took out the fist-sized magic krypton gold from the magic waist bag, put it in my hand and read it over and over again, and then put the krypton gold back into the waist bag.

Then, I took out the magic notebook of Duke Xiatun.Aili from my magic waist bag. The first electric magician I saw in this magic notebook was ‘Fire Thunder’. Yes, Sha.Aili used this electric magic to knock me out. This is a rare magic skill of close-range attack, which is very suitable for me to learn. At least, I think so.

I stretched out my hand in front of my body to draw an electric magic array. Because the action was a little unfamiliar, the magic array of ‘Fire Thunder’ failed to draw.

If it doesn’t work once, then twice. If it doesn’t work twice, then practice repeatedly until you can practice it.

I chanted the magic spell and continuously gathered the electric magic elements into the palm of my hand. Unfortunately, the magic array of ‘Fire Thunder’ was very different from the water magic skills I had learned before. Many magic runes were very unfamiliar to me, so I kept failing.

I thought to myself: Don’t let me succeed once. If I succeed once, I will be able to remember the segment when casting the spell perfectly, and I will not make mistakes in the future... The goddess of luck seemed to have heard my prayers, so in the next very long period of time, my spell casting did not succeed once.

Just as I was constantly drawing this electric magic skill called "Fire Thunder", a whistling sound came from the cave in the distance. With a strong mountain wind blowing, a mine car loaded with stones rushed out of the dark tunnel. Although the terrain of the cave had been much flatter when entering this section of the cave, the huge impact still made the mine car shake violently on the light steel rails. Every time the steel wheel hub rubbed against the track, a spark and a sharp friction sound would burst out.

Through repeated experiments, the dwarf Bernd has built the last part of the track with a reverse slope, so when the mine cart finally stopped, it just stopped at the door of the underground warehouse. At this time, I saw the two minotaurs Luka and Justus jumped down from the top of the mine cart. They were dressed like travelers, and their hair was blown into big afros by the wind in the cave. They stood beside the mine cart and retched...
