Chapter 0683: Space Ring (Second Update)
From east to west, from south to north.
Liszt took Acker on a ride to Rocky, a landed bird, and quickly took a tour of Dark Horse Island, admiring all the thriving towns and the increasingly orderly plantations and workshops.
"This is the white paper, and the quality is barely up to the standard for writing, but the process needs to be further improved. When the process is really improved successfully, it will be the era when white paper replaces thick paper, and this technology will be an important pillar industry after the founding of the People's Republic of China. ”
Akimo rubbed the white paper, which had already turned white: "It's amazing that just a few bark and straw can make paper that looks better than thick paper." ”
"Of course, magic is magical, but technology is also a force to be reckoned with. ”
"Well, my brother has said a lot, once the power of water vapor is developed, it will change the whole world. ”
Liszt said about the Industrial Revolution, Watt's invention of the steam engine caused the Industrial Revolution in the eighteenth century, of course, he said it in a speculative, prospective way: "Leo is an elemental dragon and cannot produce gems and metals, so the development of industry with the help of its supermagic is the fastest way to realize value." ”
Actually, it's not the fastest way - the fastest way is to grab it and launch the Pioneer Order, just like the Grand Duke of Sapphire.
If the industrial impact of white paper is still relatively weak, it is more like a handicraft workshop.
When I visited the glass workshop, I saw that under the burning of the fire dragon superdemon, the stone turned into a liquid like a ball of fire, which was then taken out, extended, processed, and slowly cooled into different glassware. The impact was enormous, and for the first time he felt the powerful potential of industry.
"It's called an assembly line, and if it's just the power of one person, the glass produced will be very limited. But by mastering one of these processes, each worker can not only speed up production efficiency, but also effectively reduce the risk of technology leakage...... I've been implementing assembly line magic assignments at the Magic Academy, and that's what I'm doing. ”
"My brother's idea is so ...... It's amazing!" said Acker, shocked.
Liszt replied lightly: "It's just a basic operation. ”
Except for the slight industrialization of the glass workshop, the other workshops have not departed from the shadow of the primitive handicraft workshop, at most Liszt has higher requirements for hygiene and environment, looks cleaner and tidy, and there is no change in essence - the change is more infrastructure.
The roads are paved with bricks mixed with rubber water, and tall water towers can be found everywhere in residential and workshop areas, which are used for fire protection and sewage flushing, and regularly flush underground pipes - every house has a sewage pipe to connect with the city's underground pipes.
Toilets are everywhere, and open defecation is prohibited in strict accordance with Liszt's requirements, and violators must not only be fined, but also reformed through labor.
Liszt also plans to promote waterwheels and the Takahashi waterway – that is, waterwheels that carry water from rivers and lakes to the town's water towers through high-altitude water pipes – but the town is currently busy with construction and has not yet planned to do so, as long as the castle's needs are met, and the progress does not care about slowing down.
Just like those noble lords don't care about the health of the city, they live in castles and don't stink for them.
Liszt also lived in the castle, as long as the castle fully enjoyed the healthy and convenient services, it didn't matter if the city was a little backward - in fact, the town under his jurisdiction was already a model of civilization in the world, and the livability was about the same as that of the castles of the great nobles.
Many businessmen choose to buy houses in Flower Town - only in Flower Town, and Black Horse Island has not yet opened its settlement to the public.
Living in such a clean and hygienic environment, it is really difficult to return to those dirty and pee cities after getting used to it. Even many of the petty aristocrats who lived on country estates went to Flower Town to buy houses and enjoy the conveniences of a "modern" town – with delicious food and rich theater.
The port town, which is gradually developing towards the city, is the focus of the visit.
A barren land near the town of Green Tea is also the highlight of the visit, and Liszt pointed to this land where there is nothing and said to Ark: "It was here that Leo and I met the invisible dragon, a type of sacred dragon. It ate my beef and smoked grass and gave me these space gems. ”
I took out a space gem and handed it to Ake: "This space gem will be given to Ake, as a gift for you to be promoted to a magician, let me put it on for you with my own hands." ”
The Space Gem has been set in the Mithril ring made by the Iron Knight Alvin Eagle Sword, which can be called the Space Ring, which is dazzling.
Holding up Ake's slender hand, Liszt put the glittering ring on the middle finger of her left hand in Ake's amazed and delighted eyes: "You can study it well...... Maybe one day I'll ride the invisible dragon too, and then I can have as many space gems as I want. ”
Once upon a time, a space gem was like a priceless treasure, which he carefully collected and did not dare to reveal in front of people.
I am reluctant to give it to anyone.
However, after becoming a dragon knight, he no longer cares whether the space gem will be discovered. Moreover, he also has two Lost Dragon Soul Fruits, and sooner or later he will have to ride the invisible dragon - by that time, the space gem will become an important gem resource after his founding of the country, and he will trade with various countries.
Compared to those sapphires, rubies, and emeralds, the value of space gems is obviously greater.
"I have Leo and the invisible dragon, the fighting power of the two-headed dragon guards my country, I believe that even if there is no kingdom as a backer by then, no one will dare to provoke me!"
It is normal for a kingdom to have six or seven dragon knights, but dragon knights are involved with each other, and there are very few truly free dragon knights. The casual fall of a dragon knight will cause great turmoil in the country, and naturally he will not dare to send a dragon knight to launch a dragon slaying war at will.
Before the founding of the Sapphire Kingdom, the Eagle Kingdom only sent one dragon knight to launch a dragon slaying battle, which can be seen.
If two dragon knights are sent, I am afraid that there will be nothing to do with the Grand Duchy of Sapphire.
"Is this the Space Gem, it needs magic to activate it...... It's amazing, you can have an independent space, as if you don't exist in this world, and you are connected to this world! It's amazing, my brother is not only the dragon knight of the fire dragon, but also has a friendly exchange with the invisible dragon. ”
Ake was shocked, not only by the jewel space, but also by Liszt.
Conquering a fiery dragon was already inconceivable, and now Liszt was clearly beginning to conquer the second dragon, the invisible dragon among the divine dragons.
It almost made her almost lose herself in the adoration of Liszt.
Facing the little kraken's eyes so adoring.
Liszt still maintained a calm and breezy expression: "Although the invisible dragon is my old friend, it comes at most once a year, and when it comes, I will introduce you to you...... Now let's go to the Castle of Thorns to see our future new home and familiarize ourselves with the environment. ”
