"What, we still need the consent of those monsters to expand our territory??" Li Nian really didn't know this before.

"Of course, our expansion of the scale of the station will inevitably reduce their activity space, if they are provoked, they will besiege Longteng City, with the current strength of our station, it is difficult to defend it, it is a hundred times more difficult than defending the ice and snow back to the city, after all, every monster in this god's graveyard has been psychic, and the level is above level 80."

"Well, forget it, if I want to improve the defense capability of the station, what can I do?"

Hearing Lu Qin say this, Li Nian gave up his plan to expand, and before he had enough strength, in the face of the counterattack of the monsters in the graveyard of the gods, Longteng City was defenseless.

"There are many ways to do it, depending on how you choose. The first is to strengthen the city wall, which is the most direct and effective method, the current city wall is made of dark iron stone, if it can be replaced with diamond, then the defense can be increased by at least five times. ”

"Well, what about the other way?" The more than 500 craftsmen he recruited were not of high level, and the efficiency of collecting blue magic stones was very slow, not to mention the dark iron stone and diamond!

"The second is to increase the number of fighters in the garrison, our garrison now has only more than 2,000 troops, which is indeed a bit small, if it can be replenished to 5,000, it can also greatly increase the city defense."

"In terms of personnel, I will recruit more adventurers here, and you should also look at recruiting more people to come, both combat and life occupations."

"Hey, I originally hoped to withdraw the Ice Clan and find them to replenish the soldiers, but I never thought that they would be almost killed or wounded. Only a little more than a hundred survived. ”

"Yes, it is estimated that it will take decades of cultivation for them to regain their vitality. That's right. Grandpa Lu Qin, have you heard of Benlei Villa? ”

"Benlei Villa? Of course I've heard of it. They are the same as the Ice and Snow Clan, but the Ice and Snow Clan is the messenger of the ice element, and they are the crystallization of the thunder element, but I have only seen their people when the gods and demons invaded, and the thunder element was already very active, and it was even more vividly reflected in the hands of the Ben Thunder Clan, their people are very secretive, and they still don't know where they live. Why did you suddenly mention Benlei? ”

"Not long ago, when I was sacrificing to the spirit of the Qinglong Dao Temple, I accidentally summoned the soul of the Thunder Crazy Sword Lei Shaoqiu. I gained his approval, obtained some of his abilities, and at the same time, he also entrusted me with a mission, hearing that I was the young city lord of Longteng City, so he asked me to move the Benlei Clan from Benlei Mountain Villa and move to Longteng City to settle down. Since his clansmen are so strong in combat, I'm wondering if I can let the Ben Thunder Clan join the army sequence of Dragon Teng City. ”

"Absolutely, they are very strong. With their help, we would have no problem expanding our base now! I have to say, you kid is really lucky, since you were appointed as the deputy city lord. The embarrassment of Dragon Teng City was reversed in an instant, and now it has been recognized by Qinglong City and opened the teleportation array of our station. What a privilege! ”

"Hehe, don't praise me anymore, old man. If I praise it again, I'm going to run to the Canyon of the Dead to fight Skeletron alone. Are there any other methods besides these two methods? ”

"Yes. And it's very feasible, but it's also a lot of investment! When Dragon City was at its most prosperous, although there were no magic cannons, there were more than 100 strengthened city crossbows, which could cover any corner of 100 yards outside Dragon Teng City. Unfortunately, with the disappearance of your father, Dragon City began to decline, and these fortified city crossbows fell into disrepair and became a pile of powder. The fortified city crossbow is a sharp weapon that can only be manufactured in the main city, and the price is expensive, your father got it because of his relationship with the city lord of Phoenix City, but unfortunately, when the gods and demons invaded, Phoenix City was one of the main battlefields, and it was a key attack target, Phoenix City failed to resist, and the Phoenix Knight unfortunately died. ”

"But there is good news, the goblin clan is good at making equipment, since they have settled in Dragon Teng City, you can go over and ask the Ryze Patriarch, if you can get their help, the city defense of Dragon Teng City can also be greatly improved."

"Okay, I'll go to him, then you have to worry more about the construction matters, I plan to train these craftsmen carefully, and then form a construction team to help other adventurers build a station, if it is managed properly, it can increase a lot of taxes to the station."

"That's right, that's okay, anyway, the business is left to you, and I will carefully do my full-time craftsman work, and I must bring these apprentices out."

Because the new house in the station had not yet been built, the new goblins and the Ice Clan were temporarily living in temporary tents, and Li Nian found the goblin clan patriarch Ruiz in a bronze tent.

"Grinding City Lord, why are you here?"

"Hehe, you've been in Longteng City for a few days, but it's a pity that I've been busy and haven't had time to come and see you, so I'm only free today, are you still used to being here?"

"Habit, habit, although this place is not as good as the former goblin city, but it is hundreds of times better than the Tianshan Secret Realm, in order to escape, we have been living underground for more than a hundred years, and today we can reproduce the day, and the residents here do not have the slightest intention of rejecting the goblin clan, I am really very grateful to the city lord of the mill. I've been trying to talk to you about something these days, but unfortunately I haven't had time, and now that you're finally free, let's find a place to talk in detail. ”

Before he could say anything, Ruiz spoke first, and he didn't know what to say.

"Of course, by the way, I've heard for a long time that goblins like to drink good wine made by humans, and it's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, let's go to the Twilight Tavern today, I'll have a treat."

"Then thank you to the city lord of the mill, I haven't drunk for many years, and I'm really hungry."

The two came to the Twilight Tavern, the tavern was still full, and seeing that there were no seats in the audience, Li Nian directly found Xue Xin, "Grandma Xue Xin, I'll talk to Elder Ruiz about something, do you have any place here?" ”

"There is another one, I left it for Lao Puxin, if you use it, go over, on the easternmost side of the second floor, you can go up directly, if you need to call Xiao Er."

"Okay, thank you Grandma Xuexin."

"You kid, Grandma Snow Heart all day long. Grandma Xuexin's, not old is also called old by you! ”

"You're not old at all. If you don't mind, I'll call you Aunt Xuexin in the future. ”

The NPCs in this game can't be viewed with common sense. Listening to Lu Qin say that Xuexin is almost 500 years old, but she doesn't look old at all, the most incredible thing is that she is still a human, if it is an ice and snow clan or an elf clan, it can be understood, but a human has lived for so long without any signs of aging, no matter how you think about it, it is shocking.

"It's about the same, seeing that your mouth is so sweet, and Patriarch Ruiz is still a newcomer to Longteng City, this bottle of fairy drunk will be given to you for free."

"Thank you, Aunt Xuexin."

"Thank you. Thanks a lot. ”

Seeing that Xue Xin didn't care about his goblin clan identity at all, Old Ruiz was also a little moved, in fact, he always knew that all races on the mainland discriminated against and bullied them because they were too cowardly to close the city when the gods and demons invaded. It's just that he hasn't dared to face it head-on, he's afraid that if he says this, even the clansmen will blame each other, and the goblin clan is really going to end.

Sitting down in the private room, Li Nian opened the bottle of fairy drunkenness. Immediately, the aroma overflowed, and when I smelled it, I felt like I wanted to get drunk.

He filled it up for Ryze first, then poured himself half a glass. Pick it up, "Here, let's have a drink first." ”

Patriarch Ruiz put it to his lips and sniffed vigorously. Then I drank it all, and the wine was just in my stomach. It's like a volcanic eruption, sending a thick heat to the limbs. I couldn't help but shout, cool!

"Patriarch Ruiz, I wonder what you're talking to me about?"

"Nian Zi City Lord, to tell you the truth, although I have been in Longteng City for less than half a month, during this period I have traveled to almost every corner here, here I have seen people of all races, they live in harmony here, respect and love each other, I am very envious, I also contacted a few old goblins who live in Longteng City, they all said that this place is suitable for goblins to settle down. I know that because of the last invasion of gods and demons, the various races on the continent have a deep prejudice against us, but I hope to use practical expressions and efforts to make everyone change their opinion of the goblin race, and this change starts from Dragon Teng City! ”

"You know, we goblins are good at mechanical manufacturing, but the disaster a hundred years ago caused many goblins to lose a lot of technology and drawings, but I believe that with our own talent, we can recreate those lost technologies, but we need your help!"

"You say, as long as I can do it, I will do my best!"

"If we want to restore those pinnacle technologies, we need to rebuild the Goblin Solid Yàn Room, which requires a lot of overhead, and this is just the beginning, the Goblin Real Yàn Room can only be used for scientific and technological research, and if we want to convert our research results into weapons, we also need a Goblin Workshop and an ore refinery, which require a lot of overhead, are you willing to support us?"

Damn, I really have a heart, I haven't said my request yet, but Ruiz actually took the initiative to put it forward.

"May I ask you about the results of your research, or what weapons can be made?"

"Simpler example, the goblin strong crossbow, which is used by individual soldiers, the goblin city crossbow, which is similar to the human strong crossbow for defending the city, but it is more powerful, placed on the city wall for use, the goblin real yàn room can be used to make muskets after upgrading to level 3, and the mortars can be made after upgrading to level 5, both of these weapons are used by individual soldiers, muskets have a long range and fast rate of fire, and are mainly used to kill and injure enemy light armored soldiers, while mortars have a longer range, great power, and slower speed, mainly used to suppress the enemy's mage groups and siege weapons, The Goblin Chamber, upgraded to level 7 or higher, can study steam tanks and helicopters, but these two weapons are just legends, and I don't know if we can restore them. ”

Hearing this, Li Nian was completely speechless, all of this Nima are thermal weapons, if they really want to be manufactured, others are still playing with Maomao, if they can build bombers and aircraft carriers, wouldn't they really want to dominate the Three Realms!

But soon he came to his senses through the infinite yy, "Patriarch Ruize, I don't know how much these settings will cost?" ”

"It costs 100 gold to build a goblin room, 50 gold to build a goblin workshop and an ore refinery, and each subsequent upgrade costs a lot of money. Of course, you didn't invest in vain, when I came out of the Goblin City for the trial, I brought my father's invention of the goblin motorcycle blueprint, as long as we can build the facility, we can start production immediately. ”

"Goblin motorcycles? What is this? ”

"Like your mount, it's a means of transportation, but this motorcycle has just been invented, and my father was buried in the goblin city, and many of its functions are imperfect, and it can only be used for transportation, and it can't be ridden like a mount to fight."

"It doesn't make a big difference, what about the speed of the goblin motorcycle?"

Although he could ride a mount to participate in battle, Li Nian had hardly done so, mainly because he was in close combat, and riding a mount would become very clumsy, and the target would also become larger, making it easier for the enemy to attack.

"It's the most basic bike, but the speed is okay."

As he spoke, he took out a drawing from his backpack and handed it to Li Nian.

He took it and looked at it.

Goblin Motorcycle (Drawing): A primary drawing, which can be converted into technology in the Goblin Solid Yàn Room, and then mass-manufactured in the Goblin Workshop, driven by an energy spar, with a speed of 24, a normal load of 500 loads, and a speed of 3 points for every extra 100, and a durability of 50000/50000, which can be repaired in all Goblin Clan's shops.

Goblin motorcycles need to be driven by energy spars, he is no stranger to energy spars, killing monsters above the elite level can be obtained with a certain probability, the speed of 24 yards is very attractive, but the normal bearing of 500 is a bit chicken, which means that even if this kind of motorcycle is built, he can use it enough, his current normal weight is close to 800, assuming that his equipment is no longer replaced, the weight is no longer increased, and the speed of riding such a motorcycle is only 15 points, which is about the same as his thunder lizard, of course, only if you are in a hurry, You can put all your equipment in your backpack to lower your load.

"Elder Ryze, what kind of batch method is this batch manufacturing?"

"The first-level goblin workshop can handle 5 units of manufacturing tasks per day, with only one production line, and can handle 10 units of manufacturing tasks per day after being promoted to the second level, and there is also only one production line, and after being promoted to the third level, it can handle 15 units of manufacturing tasks per day, with 2 production lines."

"How many units does that goblin motorcycle need?"

“20。”

"Damn, so high?? It takes 4 days to build one! ”

"Yes, of course, the production efficiency of all GNOME Technologies will be reduced by 10% for each level of the Goblin Solid Room and the Goblin Factory, and the Goblin Engineering Level Upgrade will improve the manufacturing efficiency. However, the premise is to ensure that the ore refinery can provide enough ore! Because the number of goblins is too small, only one of these three facilities can be built at present, and the second one can only be built when the number of goblins increases in the future and there is enough labor.
