My Magic Age

A stone room of the magic pattern printing workshop was temporarily built next to the blacksmith shop. Here, the three girls Yingli, Helena and Becky saw the magic engraving machine for the first time. In the stone room, a group of female dwarves were printing. One by one, the 'Fire Gathering Technique' rune boards.

Two female dwarves picked out palm-sized round copper plates from the material basket, and then checked whether the copper plates were as smooth as a mirror. They would pick out the thin copper plates with defects, and then they moved the qualified copper plates to the magic engraving machine. On the preparation table.

A female dwarf sat in front of the magic printing machine. During the interval between each drop of the magic printing machine, she stuffed an ordinary copper plate inside and under the printing head. She first wiped the krypton gold punch on the printing head with a rag, and then dipped it in red. The copper solution brush is quickly applied to the printing head After a moment, the printing head fell down and carved lines of magical red copper runes on the flat copper plate. The female dwarf used a pair of tongs to take out the copper plate, threw it into the wooden box next to it, and then placed a new copper plate inside. , the whole process takes less than three minutes, and the operation is skillful and smooth.

After these round ordinary copper plates are engraved with magic runes, they will be transported to the inspection table. Two female dwarves take turns to inlay the rune plates with magic runes into the gem base and install a magic crystal fragment. If there is a flame coming out, it means that the rune plates are engraved successfully. These rune plates will be turned to the back to fix the gem base, and then embedded in the bottom of the prepared copper hot pot.

If there is no response from the rune board, or thick smoke comes out, it means that the production of the rune board has failed. The failed rune board will be handed over to other female dwarves, who will use files to remove the magic rune threads from the copper plate. These discarded rune tablets were scraped off and then thrown into a furnace to be recast into copper ingots.

However, even in mass production, the success rate of magically engraving 'Fire Gathering' rune boards is still very low. On average, for every ten 'Fire Gathering' rune boards produced, only two rune boards can be successfully produced.

There is no large-scale steam forging machine in the underground cave blacksmith shop in Xinliu Valley, so hand-rolled thin copper plates alone cannot meet the current production. Therefore, they have recently been purchasing thin copper plates from Duisburg in the north. The new manager of Rune Workshop, Mo I've been running around lately Between Duisburg Nord and the Rune Workshop, he was responsible for purchasing thin copper plates in Duisburg Nord, punching the thin copper plates into round blanks in the Rune Plate Workshop, and completing the initial polishing process. After that, I would These round thin copper plate blanks are transported into Xinliu Valley.

The finished copper hot pot will also be returned to the Rune Board Workshop first. The craftsmen of the Rune Board Workshop will print a logo on the most inconspicuous place on the bottom of the copper hot pot, and finally it will be sent to the Tower of Pride. The magic grocery store in the trading hall on the first floor sells these copper hot pots in batches.

The winter in the Imperial City is getting colder day by day, and this cheap copper hot pot is becoming more and more popular in the magic market.

The impact of this magical machine on Yingli was too great. She covered her mouth in surprise, leaned next to me, and whispered to me: "We always thought you were secretly hiding in Yerkes Scholar's magic laboratory to draw drawings." These 'Fire Gathering' rune boards, it turns out that you are actually using magic machinery to replace the junior inscription master... Oh my God, how did you do this?"

I stood next to her and explained to her: "To put it simply, the inscriptionist draws the magic pattern circle. It is just a process of using magic to engrave magic patterns on magic leather or magic metal. I use some magic to do this. The rune plate is copied, and then the series of actions are realized mechanically with magic. This is the working principle of the magic engraving machine. "

In fact, this concept is a somewhat vague and general principle of magic, and probably every magician understands it.

"Did you design this big guy?" Ying Li asked me.

I said honestly: "How could it be me? This magic machine is not a product of this era at all. Even the dwarf engineers in the most industrially developed dwarf country would not be able to design such a perfect magic machine. This magical machine represents an era.”

I reached out and touched the casing of the magic engraving machine. The entire body of this magic machine was made of magical mithril. It was engraved with magic runes that I couldn't recognize. I just followed the pattern drawn on Hex's drawing. , depict these runes on the body of the magic engraving machine, and abundant magic power slowly flows through the magic patterns on the magic engraving machine.

The cost of such a magic engraving machine is very expensive. If it weren't for the financial support of the Pirate King's treasure, I would have to sell some fish skin hoods to raise funds for the experiment. However, a local magic engraving machine produced the 'Fire Gathering Machine' As soon as the magic rune board came, this magic engraving machine began to bring me a very stable income.

Ying Li heard what I said and asked me curiously: "In what era did we have such a terrifying magical machine?"

I pulled her to the wall of the cave. There were some magic engraving machine drawings printed from Hextech drawings on the wall. Each drawing almost occupied the entire wall. I said to her: " In the goblin era, these magic engraving machines are the legacy of Hex technology.”

Ying Li knew about goblins. When she and I were exploring the Xinliu Valley, we were attacked by goblins, and that’s when I came into contact with goblins.

We also exchanged various foods for a large amount of magic metal from the goblins.

Ying Li raised her head slightly. She looked at the magic drawings on the wall intently. Looking at those weird magic runes, her eyes became more and more confused. In the end, she could only force herself to close her eyes and not look at the magic drawings on the wall. , a moment later, she earned some magic runes from He came out and said to me: "... Goblins, that race cursed by the gods? Did they create this kind of magic machine? They are too targeted at inscription masters. If these magic engraving machines are once spread all over the Green Empire, those inscriptions will Teachers probably have to change careers.”

Helena and Becky were also standing next to us, looking at the magic drawings on the wall, but they couldn't see the magic runes at all, so they didn't react at all. Catalina has no interest in these at all. Every time she goes to Xinliu Valley, she will find a bright magic wall lamp, then take out a ranger biography and sit down to read quietly.

I said: "Actually, that's not the case. When making the punch for the stamping head of the magic engraving machine, an inscription master is still needed."

Ying Li curled his lips and asked me, "Can you be a junior inscription master?"

It seems that Ying Li, like scholar Ying Li, also has an obsession with the traditional magic industry.

I said to her: "Of course not a junior inscription master, you must be someone who has a very deep understanding of this kind of magic runes, probably at least an intermediate inscription master!"

Ying Li sighed. As a princess of the Angel Boulder royal family of the Green Empire, she still had these insights. She said: "If these magical machines become available, the price of rune boards will inevitably fall. If you want to train an inscription master, you will probably need more magic crystals. Jijia, we agreed to teach the inscription masters in the imperial capital some lessons, but this lesson is too harsh."

I pulled Ying Li's soft shoulders and asked her to face me. Her pretty face turned crimson instantly.

Until now, Ying Li is still a little shy when facing me.

I said to Ying Li: "Magic machinery represents the progress of an era. This kind of magic machine has already been created by the goblins. This kind of magic machine is very practical, isn't it?"

There is a row of wooden boxes with scrap copper plates on this side of the stone wall. Ying Li and I hid behind the wooden box. I leaned on the wooden box and stared at the drawings on the stone wall. Every time I saw the magic runes on the drawings, , all have different perceptions.

Ying Li and I leaned side by side on the wooden box, but she tried hard to restrain herself from looking at the magic runes on the wall drawings. Sometimes she closed her eyes, and sometimes she turned her head to look at me. She put her head on the pillow On my shoulder, he whispered to me: "I'm just worried that if you use the civilization of goblins, it will be regarded as blasphemy."

I touched her smooth face and said: "Actually, I have recently been discussing this topic with some scholars who are proficient in the ancient goblin language. We have discussed what the goblins did wrong to arouse the anger of the gods, and then we Tracing that ancient history , I feel that the goblins angered the gods in the Kingdom of Gods because these goblins were too arrogant. They actually tried to create magic puppets with the power of demigods. This was why they were cursed by the gods, causing them to degenerate from generation to generation. A subhuman with rudimentary intelligence.”

Speaking of the magic puppets created by the goblins, it reminds me of Theresa, a female classmate in the Junior Magic Academy. I heard that she chose to go to Oriana Magic Academy for further study and was able to receive admission to the Oriana Magic Academy. Obtaining the notice was probably because she had the magical power to control the rock golem, which made the senior officials of Oriana Magic Academy think Theresa was a young magician worth training.

Ying Li didn't quite agree with my last statement. She pursed her lips and smiled and said, "The goblins are probably not subhumans. Kobolds and fish people are subhumans."

Later, I took Ying Li to see the second magic engraving machine. If the first magic engraving machine is compared to a baby learning to talk, then the second magic engraving machine is an adult. The magic engraving machine was made by four old dwarf craftsmen in Xinliu Valley according to the real size on Hex's drawing. It is as big as a small mill.

Now this magic engraving machine is also running successfully, but this magic engraving machine is too bulky, and it is three spider warrior slaves who make the magic engraving punch reciprocate up and down.

They were tied to a millstone, and they kept pushing the millstone to rotate like donkeys pulling mills. There was a transmission shaft in the center of the millstone, which was connected to the ratchet of the magic engraving machine. As the millstone kept rotating, the magic engraving machine's The punch will slowly rise. When the punch of the magic engraving machine is raised to the commanding height, the ratchet lock will fail, so the punch of the magic engraving machine will drop instantly to complete a stamping process.

The female dwarf sat in front of the operating table and loaded a foot-long heavy crossbow black iron arrowhead into the die. About six arrows could be placed at a time. Then the female dwarf standing on the other side of the operating table was responsible for using the mithril solution. Wipe the magic engraving machine punch, one time can Six arrows with 'penetrating' and 'sharp' magic attributes were drawn out, but the success rate was much lower than that of the magic seal machine that printed the 'Fire Gathering' rune board, with an average of twenty-five black arrows drawn out. Iron arrowheads will probably make a successful magic crossbow arrowhead.

And if you want to test whether this kind of magic arrow is successfully made, you must install a gem base at the end of the arrow tip and place magic crystal fragments to test whether the magic pattern array can operate normally. In this way, each black iron The production cost of arrows is very high, and regardless of success or failure, these heavy crossbow arrows are all marked with 'penetrating' and 'sharp' magic patterns. This is a very exquisite dark flower print that combines this kind of arrows with Installed on the arrow shaft of the crossbow, this crossbow appears to be very high-end.

The dwarf Bernd even prepared ironwood arrow shafts for those magic crossbow arrows that were successfully engraved. As a result, the originally expensive heavy crossbow arrows became even more expensive. Each of these magic crossbow arrows cost gold coins. calculate.

Those crossbow arrowheads that failed to be made will not be recast. These arrowheads are just used as ordinary heavy crossbow arrows.

In order to make these heavy crossbow arrows, it was not enough for me to put in all the proceeds from the sale of copper hot pots. I also needed to use part of the proceeds from the magic pattern spider silk. This made me fully realize that war is burning money. Only Only by winning can the initial cost be recovered. Once the war fails, everything will be lost.

There is a lot of Indigo and Ironwood stored at the Xinliu Valley Lumber Camp. Some of these woods have been left aside for three years after they were cut down. These two types of wood are hard and heavy and are best used to make arrow shafts for heavy crossbows. However, now the old orc Zewang has been leading the female orcs in the orc village to make crossbow arrow shafts.

When Ying Li saw me making so many crossbow arrow points at the blacksmith shop, he realized that I had begun preparing to build the town of Trum. Ying Liming knew that this was very dangerous, but he did not say a word to dissuade me.

Every young nobleman of the Greene Empire will join the army and earn some merits on the battlefield in order to keep his noble title. These are also written in the code of the Greene Empire, and every noble should do so after they reach adulthood. As a duty, all Imperial men must serve in the army for at least three years.

Like me, I have an army of my own before serving in the army. This kind of advantage is generally only available to the heirs of great noble families. Helena and Becky were from aristocratic families and were familiar with the bed crossbow, a powerful weapon for defending the city. When they saw me making boxes of magic crossbows, Becky asked me in surprise: "Jijia, are you planning to sell it to other people?" Does the lord sell magic crossbows?"

"No, I just plan to use it myself!" I said to Becky casually, and then looked at the boxes of black iron arrow tips piled up against the wall, thinking that Becky's proposal was really good. If I could make crossbow arrows, Profiting from the tip of the arrow is also a pretty good business.

I said to Becky: "But... listening to what you said, it's a good idea. It's really financially difficult to keep making bed crossbow arrow points like this. If this is turned into a business, let me make it later." Aria will investigate how much these magic crossbows can be sold for. It should be profitable."

Becky's topic suddenly aroused our desire to discuss, so we discussed the feasibility of selling magic crossbow bolts outside the blacksmith shop. Only by printing twenty-five crossbow bolts can we get one magic crossbow bolt. The production cost is still quite high. However, even if the tip of the crossbow arrow fails to be drawn and made, it can still be used as an ordinary crossbow arrow, but magic runes cannot be drawn on it.

Becky has some ideas in this regard. She came up with an idea. She asked Yingli to find a way to recommend me to become Prince James's military procurement officer, specifically responsible for purchasing arrow weapons...
