Chapter 17: The Light of Epoch-Making

Nasus led a few kobolds and arranged all kinds of large and small parts, components, etc. neatly. There were even a few big ones in the form of iron round pots, which had to be carefully and painstakingly put away.

"What are you doing with this, Lord Lord?"

In the minds of everyone present, there were endless doubts.

For them, grain, ore, gold pounds and silver eagles are the most precious things. These lumps of iron are bulky and heavy, and they don't mean anything. The only use is to smelt it out and craft weapons or armor.

Li Mo squatted in the middle of the pile of iron lumps with great interest, carefully inspecting them.

He ordered a total of two sets of large round pots, more than 20 gears, various thick and thin iron rods, bearings, round wheels and other components. There are also iron blocks of different sizes, iron plates, and so on.

All the patterns were drawn by him and purchased by Lao Bi in accordance with his highest quality requirements. These should represent the highest-end forging process of Xifeng City.

Li Mo expressed his great satisfaction with the workmanship of these things.

This can also be seen that the craftsmanship level of Xifeng City is indeed good.

But there is one biggest question, which Li Mo can hardly imagine. Even Xifeng City, which has such exquisite craftsmanship, still does not have a "steam engine".

He even asked Lao Bi side-by-side, this world is indeed without the development of steam machinery. While the major cities of the Federation were prosperous, it was true that it was not the industrial age.

Li Mo ordered these parts and components to prove this. Everything in front of me indicates that a large number of parts and components, traces of handiwork can be seen, and they are not industrial products.

In other words, these exquisite craftsmanship are all done by manpower.

However, manpower cannot bring higher and faster development after all, and if you want to stand at the top of this era, only industry and science and technology are the top forces of the epoch.

As a well-known keyboard expert, an industrial machinery enthusiast, and a famous engineering professional single dog, Li Mo has an unusual love for all the metal parts in front of him.

In his eyes, these iron lumps will create a standard "high-pressure steam engine". Once successful, Xijing City will be the first to jump onto the stage of industrial development!

From this moment on, the whole world will change from Xijing City!

Li Mo took a deep breath and slowly calmed down.

Then, he sat down in the pile of metal objects and pulled out a copy of the "Transcendent Identification Materials" in his pocket. This is also the information entrusted to Lao Bi and personally edited and sorted out by Lin Jie.

Li Mo still has an urgent idea that needs to be answered. There is no doubt that this world is strange to him, but with "Force" and "Transcendent", it means that there are other unknown powers.

Li Mo must understand this power in order to conquer this power!

Time passed slowly, and Li Mo was immersed in reading and divergent thinking.

After a long time, he took a breath of turbidity, gently put down the information, looked at the sky, and silently analyzed the knowledge points obtained.

The transcendent is a general term for a group of people of a special race who are favored by the gods.

The so-called special is because they prayed under the altar of the gods of faith, and then consumed the "extraordinary medicine" blessed by the gods and mixed with various materials.

If the miraculous medicine takes effect, then you can sense the existence of the "Force" in the world, and absorb the Force, exert the Force, and have various magical and mysterious skills.

Of course, there are some exceptions who can sense the Force without the need for miracle medicine. These belong to the original ecological transcendentals, and their numbers are scarce, forming a mysterious and unique hidden organization, which is unknown.

In this world, the transcendent are a special group. According to each other's blood and ethnic relations, they gather together to keep warm, gather under the protection of the gods and beliefs, and continue to develop their own interests.

For example, Lin Jie and Lao Bi, whom Li Mo just familiarized, are the belief groups that represent the "Mother Earth Goddess", and they are also the groups with the largest number of yellow-skinned species.

And the white descent that Lin Jie mentioned is the most powerful force in the jurisdiction of Xifeng City, representing the belief group of the "Sun God of War".

The whole world also has a uniform standard for the strength of the transcendent.

This criterion is very intuitive and you can see it at a glance.

That is, what level of divine spirit objects can be equipped and used represents what level of strength it represents.

For example, if the equipment uses "ordinary sequence" divine spirits, the strength is "quasi-extraordinary". If the equipment uses the "Elite Sequence" divine spirit, the strength is "Elite Extraordinary", and so on, which is very standard.

Because of the divine spirit, it contains the blessings of the gods, as well as the high nature of the Force. If you can't reach the capacity of the equipment, you can't use it at all.

There is also a secret, which is very vague in the information: it seems that the strong people above the elite must fuse special divine spirits in order to upgrade to the higher ranks. But this secret is only clear to the strong, and Lin Jie can't tell it clearly.

At present, it is shown in the intelligence that in the entire jurisdiction of Xifeng City, the top combat power standard is called "epic and extraordinary". This is already the existence of a thousand enemies, and the strength is superb.

In order to join a transcendent organization that believes in gods, you must hold the coat of arms of that organization. It is both a status symbol and an endorsement of the organization. You can ask for help, or give back to the organization.

This is also the reason why Lin Jie recruited Li Mo to join, a yellow-skinned person with a transcendent subordinate and a city wall base, is definitely a talent that Lin Jie dreams of.

In addition, there is another important knowledge point that has attracted Li Mo's attention in intelligence. That's why Xifeng City was able to create these metal crafts in front of him.

Among the transcendent groups of white descent, there is a rare class of transcendents who can use the Force to drive golems. And this kind of puppet can be competent for simple labor work, whether it is farming or forging, it can achieve good results.

That is, low-end jobs, and puppets can replace manpower to do it. High-end work, and then by technical personnel to carry out fine operations, and finally form a reasonable industry.

"It's a half-magical, half-industrial, combined otherworld. It is neither a backward feudal era, nor a mature and developed modern industrial era. Li Mo commented on this phenomenon.

But it is clear that even the Force golems are using those rare transcendents as motivation. Moreover, replenishing the Force also consumes "Origin Energy Crystals", which is also very expensive.

"Then, let's use steam machinery to create even bigger surprises for my opponents!" Li Mo stood up with a smile and stared at the metal component in front of him.

"Nasus, inform Jiraiya, start work immediately. ”

"Yes!"

Nasus hurried to the mine to find Jiraiya.

Since the development of "cement" in the mine under the guidance of Li Mo, he has been intoxicated by the feeling of controlling the temperature of the flame, and he has nothing to do with the finished cement under the mine.

"Your Highness, what is the matter?" Zilai was also covered in cement ash, and rushed over in the dust.

"Let's assemble the steam engine. Li Mo smiled and instructed the kobold to move all the parts needed into the warehouse and arrange them one by one.

"Pheasant, come, you and Jilai are a wonderful match together. ”

Li Mo led Jilai and the pheasant to stand in front of the two semi-circular iron bumps and explained: "First of all, we need a sealed cylinder to weld with flame and electric arc. ”

Jiraiya and Qing Pheasant squatted down with a puzzled expression, listening to Li Mo's command and explanation, while operating the power of flames and thunder and lightning, cooperating with each other.

It has to be said that Jiraiya's experience in tinkering with cement has given him the level of proficiency in controlling the temperature of the flame. Coupled with the pheasant's natural thunder and lightning control, the two worked together and quickly welded all the processes required by Li Mo.

Li Mo carefully inspected every welding point, and the final product made him very satisfied.

The cylinder of the steam engine is the focus, and the airtightness of the cylinder block and piston must be ensured. The technology and knowledge of this world do not yet have the ability to complete manufacturing.

"Very good, the next step for us is to weld and assemble the steam boiler. ”

Li Mo's encouragement made Zilai and the pheasant happy. Then he began to assemble and weld the steam boiler with the assistance of Li Mo. With the previous experience, this time the welding was even smoother.

The two large items were basically in hand, and Li Mo finally let out a sigh of relief, and his heart was full of smiles. He ordered enough parts to assemble two sets of steam engines, but now it seems that he can no longer worry about wear and tear.

Kerrigan and Medusa both rushed to watch when they heard the news. Inside and outside the warehouse, many interested viewers suddenly gathered, and they were amazed.

Nasus was dazzled as he seemed to understand the explanation.

But the eyes of the two female deputy gods did not focus on the "steam engine", but on the pheasant's body.

Time passes in a lot of doubts and speculations, and the process is intense in the warehouse.

It wasn't until the afternoon of the fourth day that Li Mo finally relaxed and sat on the ground tiredly.

In front of him at this moment was a complex machine that shone with the light of industry and was covered with metallic colors. With a double linkage, a sliding valve, a bearing flywheel, a speed regulating member and a few stout pipes: a high-pressure steam engine.

This represents the most advanced power machinery in this era, and the finished product is not difficult, but the difficult thing is to manufacture the experience, ideas, and innovative ideas of the finished product, which is an epoch-making product!

"Aren't they just two big pots, what does the lord want to do?" Nasus circled around the steam engine, thinking about it repeatedly, puzzled.

Kai Ruigan and Medusa are also puzzled, but their respect and trust for Li Mo make these two female vice-gods have an incomparable sense of expectation.

"My lord, what is this iron lump for?" several kobolds, gathered around Nasus, and couldn't help but ask.
