My Magic Age

Before returning to the imperial capital, Qige and I took a look at the magic herb warehouse. Unfortunately, there were only a few scattered bundles of styptic herbs in the empty stone room.

For Qige, this lowest level of magical herbs has no research value at all, so there is no idea of ​​bringing them back to the imperial capital. The indigenous people here in Xinliu Valley have mastered the technology of making hemostatic bandages. It won't take long for these The hemostatic grass will turn into boxes of hemostatic bandages. Although the treatment effect is very poor, as a civilian first aid method, hemostatic bandages are very popular in the imperial capital.

Kalancuo told me that the day before yesterday, more than a dozen beast girls rushed to the magic herbal garden in the circular valley. Recently, the magic herbs in several nurseries in the medicine garden have reached the maturity stage. After a few days, this batch of The magic herbs will be delivered to the underground warehouse.

Who would have thought that magic herbs would suddenly become a hot commodity in the magic market. If they had known earlier and stockpiled a large number of magic herbs until now, they would have made a lot of money by investing in the magic market in the capital.

Walking into the storage room where the goblin treasure chest is stored, there are many drawings of Hex Technology stacked here. Now these drawings have been taken out from the bottom of the treasure chest, bundled in rolls and placed on the wooden shelf in the stone room. Dwarf Cypress Ende even divided them into major categories, and sets of drawings were individually labeled and stored together.

Another purpose of my return to Xinliu Valley is to find a solution to the problem of mold printing rune metal plates from these Hex technology drawings. I think that in the Hex era, the goblins will also face this problem. The drawing of a large number of rune metal plates requires manual work, which makes it difficult to ensure the yield of rune plates, and the production efficiency is also appallingly low. Quality and efficiency determine the price of rune plates that is difficult to reduce to the lowest level.

I once saw a complete set of mold drawings in this pile of drawings. This time I came to the Xinliu Valley underground warehouse just to find that set of drawings. Since we master the alchemy technology of fine gold solution, the fine gold demon The market for rune-patterned boards is completely controlled. In the hands of Qige and I, the rune plate processing workshop purchased by Mrs. Alia was originally designed to produce blank adamantine magic rune plates, and the adamantine solution was painted on the red copper rune plates. , no technology is required, and it is completely feasible to use the template printing process.

As for drawing the magic pattern array on the adamantine magic pattern, it will ultimately need to be completed by a junior inscriptionist who is good at drawing rune metal plates.

However, one template can only print one kind of adamantine magic pattern. Fortunately, Qige and I only planned to make a batch of 'miniature tornado' rune boards in the early stage.

Recently, the exhaust fan that Qi Ge and I jointly developed has appeared in various imitations in the Imperial City Magic Market. However, fortunately, due to the extreme shortage of mithril rune boards in the Imperial City Magic Market, those exhaust fan imitations There was no way to mass-produce them, so exhaust fans of various shapes appeared in magic shops, and the prices remained high.

Amidst the sound of the spell, clusters of 'magic shimmers' rose up from my hand like blossoming dandelions. These magic shimmers floated in every corner of the stone chamber, illuminating the entire stone chamber. Qige and I stood there At the door of the stone room, I looked at the goblin treasure boxes stacked against the wall, which contained some malachite, the raw ore gemstone associated with magic red copper. Next to the other wall were rows of wooden shelves, with bundles of them stored on them. Binding magic parchment.

I stood in front of the wooden shelf and looked at the Hex Technology drawings one by one. I found that the wooden shelf was covered with various labels and annotations. I guess in the underground warehouse, only Bernd had the courage to do this. There are two wooden shelves with the most labels. One of the wooden shelves stores the drawings of the flame spray device. From the size diagram of each steel pipe to the simplified drawing of each magic pattern array, each drawing is very detailed. annotation label.

In fact, the flamethrower device was originally based on the Hextech blueprints, but the blueprints at that time were far from as complete as they are now. At that time, we had not yet aggressively cleared out the goblins in the underground caves. The original flamethrower device The drawings are just derivatives based on several simple drawings of the magic pattern array.

The original flame-throwing device was carefully polished with magical red copper. The outer wall of the copper pipe, which was nearly as thick as an arm, was engraved with wind magic patterns. There was only a very thin small round hole in the center of the nozzle, and there was a plum blossom shape around the small round hole. There are air holes arranged in a row. This auxiliary air hole can blow out a strong hurricane, atomize the kerosene flowing out of the central circular hole in an instant, and blow it very far.

This device is a flamethrower that I improved for the special conditions of underground caves. In fact, it was originally an advanced atomizing watering can. I just made some improvements on the nozzle and engraved the primary 'Wind Pillar Technique' on it. magic pattern array. The truly complete 'Hex' flamethrowing device actually has an independent igniter, but at the beginning, I didn't have that part of the drawing, so I could only have an orc warrior hold a torch to assist the flamethrower.

After repeated experiments by the dwarf Bernd, the oldest batch of flamethrowing devices have been eliminated. The latest flamethrowing devices have independent ignition devices and wind magic cooling systems to protect the flamethrower from being burned by the flames. After flipping through the experimental notes on thick magic parchment, I realized that Bernd had made countless improvements to this flame-throwing device.

I smiled and told Qi Ge that before the training in the Yello plane, the goblin tribe in the underground cave of Xinliu Valley was extremely ambitious and actually conspired to riot collectively. It was probably because of the comfortable and affluent life that the evil goblins were born in the goblin tribe. The goblins began to be dissatisfied with the agreement to exchange copper mines and magic copper for food, and prepared to attack the underground warehouse in a big way to rob all the wine, food, herbs, and cloth in the warehouse.

It was also at that time that I met the impoverished dwarf Bernd in the tavern and brought him back to Xinliu Valley.

At that time, I didn't know that he was also a craftsman obsessed with magic equipment. When Bernd first introduced himself, he swore that he was a natural dwarf warrior and had not learned the dwarf's forging, mining, etc. Now it seems that these are not important at all. The most important thing is that he has the heart of a dwarf craftsman.

Later, under the leadership of the dwarf Bernd, dozens of goblin tribes were successively wiped out, and more Hextech blueprints were obtained. Bernd even pieced together a complete set of blueprints from these captured blueprints.

The first thing Bernd made was a flatbed trailer suitable for transportation in the cave. At that time, Qige and I were training on the Yello plane. When the trailer was still in the experimental stage, Qige and I captured a team of spider warriors near the stone formation outside Tanton City and successfully brought them into the underground cave of Xinliu Valley. Unfortunately, only three spider warriors gave up resistance and signed a slave contract.

Since then, the three spider slaves have become flatbed drivers. Bernd made black iron chains for them. Eight black iron chains passed through the eight spider legs of the spider warriors and were tightly connected to the flatbed trailer. These three spider slaves are usually responsible for the transportation of materials between the underground warehouse and the orc village.

This flatbed trailer is actually not difficult to build. Bernd has always complained that the axles made of magic black iron metal are worn out every time. This flatbed trailer often breaks down when transporting ordinary food, wood, cloth, herbs, dried meat and other materials, not to mention those heavy giant stones.

Bernd knew that I had an idea to transport the large amount of stones stored in the quarry area to the underground warehouse, so this guy secretly flipped through the Hextech drawings again, found the drawings of light rails and large mine carts, and boldly planned how to lay out the light rails. Originally, his idea was to use the black iron spears seized from the Yerro plane, reforge them in the blacksmith shop in the orc village, hammer them into light steel rails, and lay them in the underground caves little by little.

But when it came to practice, I realized that I had thought too simply. Hundreds of black iron spears looked like a lot, but in fact, only a short section of the road was laid. I found that the iron materials stored in Xinliu Valley were not enough to lay light rails. That’s why I asked Kalancuo to bring me a message and asked me to customize a batch of light rails in the Imperial Capital Blacksmith Workshop.

So in this stone room, only the wooden shelves where the flamethrower drawings, flatbed trailer drawings, large mine car drawings, and light rail drawings were placed had the most notes and annotations, while the other shelves were covered with some dust, probably because Bernd hadn’t had time to look through them.

I was looking for the set of mold drawings in my memory in the pile of drawings. Kalancuo stood by and helped me to clean up the drawings that I had messed up, tied them up and put them back in place. Qige, however, held her hands in front of her chest and remained silent. After she came out of the wine cellar, she obviously spoke less.

When I turned to the fifth shelf, I finally found the set of drawings on the top layer. I wiped the dust off my hands and said with joy: "Oh, I found it, this is the set of drawings."

With the help of Kalancuo, I took the whole set of drawings off the wooden shelf, picked up a drawing and slowly unfolded it on the square table in the center of the stone room, looking at the crooked goblin characters on it, and grabbed my short hair in pain. Kalancuo stood beside me, helped me hold the remaining drawings, stretched out an arm to stroke my back, and said to me with a smile: "If there is anything that cannot be solved, just think of a solution slowly, why bother with your hair!"

"These ancient goblin characters, I don't know who else can recognize them, it's really troublesome!" I said to Kalancuo distressedly.

"Then take your time, I didn't see you complain when I was flipping through those goblin drawings before!" Kalancuo came to my side, looked at the drawings with me, and comforted me.

"Do you want to go back to the capital with me this time? You have to see little Ella!" I looked up at Kalancuo and said. She was looking down at me tenderly. When I looked up, her eyes avoided me as if nothing had happened.

The magic glimmers that were floating in the stone room like dandelions gradually fell down, and finally disappeared into the darkness like a little dust.

I quickly took advantage of the last bit of light to roll up the drawings on the table and pulled Kalancuo out of the stone room.

"Have you found it?" Qi Ge leaned against the door of the stone room. At this time, her eyes regained their original clarity. Her deep eyes were like the brightest stars in the night sky. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, outlining a perfect arc. Her black hair fell straight down like a waterfall. Her snow-white skin made people feel a little dazzling in the dim underground cave.

I raised the drawings in my hand to her, but it was obvious that she didn't want to see it. Her charming eyes glanced away and turned to leave the stone room.

I hurriedly chased after her, got behind Qi Ge and said to her: "There are many small magic workshops in the imperial capital. Some exhaust fans have flowed out from the Magic Research Institute. Many small magic workshops have begun to imitate them. They are sold in the magic market, but they are limited by the price of the mithril rune plate and the drawing fee of the inscription master. The price of these exhaust fans is between one or two magic crystals. The rune metal plate workshop we acquired will mass-produce the fine gold magic rune plates that are specially used to draw the "miniature tornado" magic rune array. We always have to talk about cooperation together."

"It seems that you really regard her as your partner?" Qi Ge narrowed her eyes and looked at me charmingly.

"Yes, someone has to be responsible for doing this." I walked side by side with her holding the blueprint. There were no outsiders in the underground cave, so we didn't need to hide anything.

Qi Ge took off her usual disguise and no longer had a cold face. Her eyes always looked very charming, and her eyes were full of charm. The blood of the Sky Fox Clan gave her the "Charming Eyes" from birth.

In response to my question, Qi Ge frowned her delicate eyebrows, bit her rosy lips with her white teeth, blinked at me and said, "After returning to the imperial capital, I want to take time to meet Alia. Please help me arrange it."

"Okay, I'll bring her to see you tomorrow night." I took the initiative to grab her soft little hand, her eyes lit up, and there was a hint of shyness on her face.

Qi Ge glanced at me and teased me softly, "I thought you would never have the courage!"

After walking out of the portal, Takama had been silently guarding the door of the lounge. I had to go to the Yekis scholar to see if there was any new progress in the magic pattern assembly drawings of the "Power of the Giant Bear" and "Shield of the Earth" that he had designed for me, so I didn't stay in Qi Ge's magic laboratory for long. After passing through several corridors and two garden-style courtyards, I walked straight to the Yekis Scholar Laboratory.

The Magic Research Institute seemed a little depressed. Usually at this time, many magic assistants would sneak out of the laboratory, gather in the garden of the courtyard to take a breath and relax, and then return to the laboratory to assist the magic scholars in a new round of magic experiments. But now the courtyard was deserted, and I didn't meet many people walking in the corridor.
