Chapter Seventy-Three: Dreams
85_85627The development of mechanics has not been smooth sailing.
From the initial invention of machinery, to the later widespread use, and then to the peak of glory. Lilita is the first legendary mechanic to create mechanical summoning beasts and attach life force to them.
However, in all the historical records, only the countless glorious legends that belong to her are recorded. It should be said that this is a historical figure without stains!
The job transfer task of the profession is not simply to fight the boss, just talk to the NPC. The system transports players into a different style of world and a trip back to the past of their own class.
In this past time and space, experiencing the development of the profession, the protagonist is someone else, but also the player himself.
"Lilita, I have something to tell you. "Vance was a young man, much taller than Lilita, and looked very handsome.
"Huh?" Lilita was stunned for a moment, and Vance glanced around, leading the red-haired girl into the corner alley.
Nord Stream walked over.
The young man's expression was a little solemn. "Lilita, this is really dangerous! Last time, the adults had already asked you to give up those dangerous things, if the news reached the ears of the adults again. What about Lala? You're going to go to jail for that!"
Lilita frowned and said disdainfully, "That's Rentherin stupidity." It's impossible for a liar like him to appreciate the beauty of machinery!hmm."
Vance covered the girl's mouth and looked around carefully.
"You're crazy. Adults dare to say that!"
Lilita rolled her eyes and brushed Vance's hand away. "I don't believe him anyway. He's a liar!"
Vance sighed and leaned against the wall behind him. "I just don't want anything to happen to you. โ
He claimed to be an apostle of God. Now the empire is suffering from the invasion of war, and many small villages on the border have been destroyed. If he had the ability, why didn't he go to the border to help the soldiers fighting in the war? A mouth full of hypocritical lies. In the end, the girl couldn't help but feel emotional, and punched the wall on her side, with unspeakable anger.
"Uncle Jin Ge still has news, right?"
Ginger is Lilita's father. In the past few months, the Empire has forcibly conscripted soldiers, and all men under the age of 60 must wear armor and go to battle. And Lilita's father was also forcibly dragged to the battlefield, how can he survive safely until he returns?
Lilita used to do the same thing. Go to church. Outcome. Locked up for a month. When I came back to town again, my father was gone.
Lilita never knew that she had always loved the empire and ruined her life with her own hands.
It's been 4 months. Gallentel's war has been declared a failure. One by one, the soldiers who had been sent returned with the exception of Lilita's father.
If her younger sister is not there, Lilita doesn't know what reason there is to stay strong.
"I went and asked a lot of times. The knight grown-up will only say. The dispatcher has not yet replied. Lilita lowered her eyes and smiled sarcastically.
"A soldier who is insignificant to the Empire. Life or death? They don't care. All they care about is the survival of the country! The people are now nothing more than instruments of war. โ
"Lilita" Vance looked at the girl, her eyes full of worry.
Lilita clenched her hands into fists and controlled her feelings. "Vance. I'm not going to let myself hit the muzzle again. I still have Lala, so it won't. โ
"That's good. โ
The boy looked up at the sky, and for a moment the girl couldn't see it. A touch of sorrow was sliced.
The atmosphere fell silent. This was the end of the conversation between the two! Out of the alley, they left in different directions. Nord Stream follows Lilita.
Bite. Please continue to follow Lilita. By this time, the disobedience of Nord Stream had completely disappeared.
Lilita turned around a street corner, and Beixi followed with a calm face, only to find that it was a dead end. And Lilita clasped her hands to her chest at this time, vigilantly looking at the child in front of her who had followed her all the way.
Child?
Lilita crossed her hands on her hips and said unceremoniously, "Say, what are you doing with me?"
Nord Stream is less than 1.5 meters tall, with a beautiful face that looks like an unripe peach, coupled with cute clothes, and then the whole person looks like a child.
"I love machinery. โ
Lilita squinted and stepped forward to pinch Nord Stream's face. "Don't lie!"
Nord Stream was grinding his teeth in his heart, his face was silent, his big eyes were shining with tears, and he looked at Lilita innocently. "I like cool robots. โ
Then, Lilita smiled contentedly. patted Nord Stream's little shoulder, with an expression of 'this kid has a future'.
"Follow me. I'll show you what is more powerful than God this year!"
Nord Stream nodded hurriedly. Follow Lilita around left and right, and eventually the two of them arrive in front of a dilapidated house. The house can no longer be described as dilapidated.
The roof of the wooden house has a lot of patches, and it still looks very new, it should have been put up recently. It looks like it's going to collapse at any moment.
The only thing that caught the attention of Nord Stream was probably the hollyhock flowers spread all over the outside of the wooden house. The bright red is bright and vivid in the sun.
Lilita pushed the door open, and the small figure pounced. "Lilita. โ
The girl has the same red hair as Lilita. She has a little pigtail and a round face that looks very cute! This is Lilita's sister.
Lilita laughed. Nord Stream found out that Lilita had a beautiful smile, albeit rudely.
Lilita hugged Lala, and under Lala's curious gaze, she asked Nord Stream, "By the way, your name?"
"Nord Stream. โ
"Eh, what a strange name. It's as weird as you dress!" Lilita quipped, leading Nord Stream into the house.
Nord Stream looked at his gloves and outfit, thinking about Lilita's words, and suddenly realized.
It turns out that his dress is very strange in the current Carlance. Could it be that along the way, passers-by looked at themselves wrongly.
Entering the house, Nord Stream found that the inside of the house was not as dilapidated as it was outside. Although the house is small, it is full. Every furnishing makes the owner feel that the owner has put his mind into it, which makes people feel inexplicably warm.
"Sit down. Wait for me for a while. Lilita walked into the kitchen, and Lala leaned across the table, staring curiously at Nord Stream.
Nord Stream stared back calmly.
The two of them began to stare at each other wide-eyed, and neither of them spoke.
Until Lilita came out, still carrying a steaming meal. One by one on the table, and then said to Nord Stream: "Eat." You're welcome!"
Lilita crossed her waist and grinned at Nord Stream. Nord Stream opened its mouth. Don't know what to say.
Lilita pulled out her chair. Sit across from Nord Stream and hold your cheeks. "You must have come from another town, right?
Nord Stream nodded silently. Stretching out his little hand, he picked up a slice of bread and nibbled on it. The eyes have never left Nord Stream!
Lilita looked like I understood.
"You can stay at my house for now. If you go out like this, it's easy to think you're a heretic being caught by the church!"
A hint of love flashed in Beixi's eyes.
Knowing that he is not where he came from, he still generously took himself home
"Eat it, and I'll take you to see my invention when I'm done!" Lilita's expression was smug.
Nord Stream is really excited and looking forward to it.
What did the first mechanical summoning beast look like?โโ
The dividing line of eating-
Lilita took Nord Stream to her basement.
The lights are on. The space that is not big but not small is completely unfolded in front of Nord Stream's eyes.
The tall automaton is a wolf.
The metal body, although the workmanship is not as fine as that of the descendants. However, the precise construction and perfect shape are incomparable to some mechanical engineers of later generations.
"Hey, hey. My proud work, awesome!"
Nord Stream stepped forward. Touching the body of the metal wolf, the cold touch. It's just an ordinary machine, lifeless.
"Can it move?"
Lilita pushed her glasses as if she had thought of something, and her eyes darkened for a moment. "It shouldn't be possible. โ
Nord Stream was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted. "Is it for Lala?"
Lilita smiled. "If you keep doing it yourself, Lala and I will be in danger! Have you heard of the church? Do you believe in the gods?"
Nord Stream shook his head. I don't believe it, because I've never seen a god!
I believe in the power of scienceEven though there are many things in the world that are unknown to human beings, I believe that the power of science can easily solve things that the so-called gods cannot solve. It's just that in the eyes of the church, my remarks can destroy the existence of the miรจ empire. They don't allow people like me to save their lives!"
Something that the gods can't solve.
Nord Stream stroked the silver wolf's body, pondering.
War!
If this machine moves. It is estimated that it will play a great role on the battlefield!
It's a pity, in order to maintain the status of the church. As long as the ideas that threaten the status of these believers are not allowed to exist in this world.
"Isn't that Lilita's dream?"
Is it really possible to give up the mechanics and science that you love so easily?
Lilita stepped forward, ravaged Nord Stream's hair, and laughed.
"Between living and dreaming, I would rather choose the former. Besides, I can't think of a way to make it move right now. I guess this thing is alive, and it won't play a role! In the eyes of others, it's just a pile of scrap metal!"
Nord Stream pulled her hat in both hands, and the bangs on her forehead blocked her expression, making Lilita look a little unreal.
"Okay, you can stay here for now. I'll go up there and take a look at Lala, and remember to lock the door when you see it. After speaking, he smiled at Beixi and walked up slowly.
Nord Stream raised his head and touched the body of the automaton again. Hollow eyes, stiff face that has not yet been inlaid with energy stones, cold body.
"Do you think so too?"
However, the mechanical wolf did not react. (To be continued).
