53 The Poem of the Forge
"Oh! Thanks, Artoria, it's hard to get all these books here for you. ”
In the big tent of the barracks, Lin Dengwan was holding two slender probes, busy back and forth on a core core. It's a bit like an engineer busy with an integrated circuit with a solder wire in one hand and a soldering iron in the other. There is also a mess of unknown metal materials around him, which has a very steampunk feel.
On one side of the table there are stacks of books. Since coming to Vierce, Lin Dengwan has not had time to study properly, and it seems that he wants to take advantage of this rare free time to make up for a few lessons.
Although the "system" can provide some information for itself, those are "table" information such as climate, rivers and mountains, magic armor attributes, and attributes of the person in front of you.
Most of the "inside" information such as culture, history, and legends needs to be unearthed by Lin Dengwan himself from old paper piles and taverns. Lindenvan asked Artoria to borrow a number of books from the Randafrey Library, including historical and cultural collections such as "Celtic Chronicles", "Tales of Sarmatia", and "The Millennial Empire", theological classics such as "Tales of the Gods", "Tales of the Stars", and "Man's Original Sin", as well as biographies of characters such as "The Legend of Gru" and "Severus the Great".
As an outsider, it is not surprising that Lin Dengwan reads these books, after all, he will be in the Vierz region for a long time in the future, and the information about the three main ethnic groups of the Imperial, Celtic, and Red Dragons (Empire, Sarmatia, and Celtic half-blood) must be collected comprehensively, so as not to accidentally break taboos and offend people.
It is also reasonable to study theology, after all, Lin Dengwan has been talking about the nature of this world and the gods, and it may not be possible to find any clues from theological classics.
As for those biographies, perhaps Lin Dengwan is trying to figure out how much power a hero can have.
But there are also some books......
"Uh...... Master Lin Dengwan, these ...... "Jumio and Loliet", "The Lingering Wind and Sand at the End of the World", "Summer Rain Lotus by the Lake" and "The Rain is Deep in Love", these ...... Belch...... Are you sure you want to read it? ”
Artoria's tone was hesitant, and she wondered if Loro had taken the opportunity to add some illicit goods to her boss's list. The female pirate leader of that stronghold has recently become obsessed with knightly romance novels, and to be honest, it's not the sword that makes the barbarians succumb, it's the culture of novelty. Maybe after ten or eight years of being poisoned by these cultural "dross" of Briton, Luo Luo may be reduced from a wild female pirate to a soft girl who dreams of being a princess all day long.
Oh...... The family was originally a prince, and the father was the patriarch of the big clan, basically not much different from the king. There is nothing wrong with saying that Luo Luo is a princess, people don't need to dream at all, they are princesses.
Envy, jealousy, hatred, and hatred.
"Huh? Is there anything wrong with borrowing those books? ”
Lindenwan's question pulls Artoria back from jealousy, and it seems that those books are not Lolo's private goods, but Lindenwan's shameless want to read.
What romance do you see? And most of them are female-oriented.
The girly heart of the stinky stream (river crab) hooligan? The brain made up for Lin Dengwan's voice and said angrily: "No...... Don't fight for people......" and other lines...... Artoria immediately had goosebumps all over her body and an upset stomach.
"Huh? Artoria? Did you have anything for breakfast that you shouldn't have eaten? Why this expression? ”
"I didn't ...... It's nothing...... Since you really borrowed it, it's no problem. ”
With that, Artoria piled a pile of books on Lindenwan's desk, making the mountain of books there a little thicker.
In fact, Lin Dengwan's system has its own scanning function, which can scan all the books in good condition and make them into e-books, so that Lin Dengwan can read them anytime and anywhere. However, Lin Dengwan, like many people, has a bad habit of pretending to be forced, and he doesn't read convenient e-books, but has to read paper books.
This kind of behavior is called "carbon-based model" in the original universe, and it is an act that thinks it is coercive, but in fact it is vulgar. Well, it's not much in this "primitive" magical world.
After clapping his hands twice, Artoria glanced at Lindenwan and found that Lindenwan seemed to be in the process of transforming the core core. The two probes in his hand penetrated deep into the core core like a jelly, and small sparks came out from time to time. And on Lin Dengwan's lenses, strings of words and symbols that she can't read are flowing rapidly, which looks quite cool.
"It's ...... Modifying the Magic Armor? ”
"It's probably a bit inappropriate to say that the revisions are being made, and I'm remastering."
Pushing his glasses, Lin Dengwan raised his head and interrupted his effect. He didn't mind the interruption, and wanted to have a good chat with Artoria.
"Huh? Make? Like this? ”
The way Linden "made" the magic armor was something Artoria had never seen before, or even heard of. Although she is not a princess like Lolo, Artoria is also the younger sister of a high-ranking official (river crab), and her sister is still a nobleman who has the right to claim the imperial throne, and she has visited a lot of places such as the magic workshop, and she has also watched the production process of magic armor.
Generally speaking, magic armor is not "built", but jumped out of the great god. Artisans would place their armor on the altar and chant it to the altar with pre-choreographed runic phrases, channeling a series of intricate runes and magic circles that would keep the beautiful and intricate geometric patterns glowing.
Following the chanting of the craftsmen, the light and shadow on the magic array centered on the altar continued to flow and converge, and finally completely merged into the core core. After the magic array no longer glows, put in the materials needed for the magic armor. If there is not enough material, the core will continue to glow red like a warning until all the material is ready. After the red light disappeared, the magic armor was completed, and a blank core core and a large pile of raw materials turned into a killing machine in such an unscientific and magical way.
The whole process has nothing to do with scientific management, assembly line production, and even the craftsmanship of craftsmen. The people in the Magic Workshop were not so much craftsmen as they were sacrifices.
Due to the limited understanding of Rune phrases, there are only a few types of magic armor that can be created. According to the armor craftsmen, it was their ancestors who received the oracle, and it was the gods who gave them some runi syntax and vocabulary, and through these limited variations and combinations, the craftsmen were able to create a wide variety of magic armor.
The artisans called these words and syntax "poems of forging".
The "Forge Poems" given by each faith are different and are regarded as important knowledge, which is kept strictly secret and passed down.
Moreover, the runifens used in these "Forging Poems" seem to be a little different from those used by heroes to cast spells, and at least a few heroes who break the bull can break through the limitations of "Forging Poems" and make certain modifications to the magic armor.
Among them is the famous Gru, whose "Phantom Archer" magic armor has strong long-range strike capabilities, and has become a sought-after item at the beginning of its birth. With the passing of this hero, the "Poetry of Forging" of the "Phantom Archer" has also been completely lost, and this powerful magic armor has naturally become a priceless situation. Most of them are now in the hands of an organization called the "Mountain Rangers".
And the only well-known hero who can create magic armor is the black uncle named Deken, who can make ordinary people have powerful spell-casting abilities, and can even be compared with heroes in some aspects. But his whereabouts are mysterious, and it is said that he finally lives in his own plane city, and there are very few "spellcaster" magic armors in the present world.
Perhaps, now we have to add this Linden Wan who jumped out of nowhere, and the "Wagri frigate" in Altoria is his masterpiece.
Although he was mentally prepared for Lin Dengwan's ability, Artoria was still quite shocked to suddenly see this non-mainstream way of building magic armor.
"Artoria, I've been thinking about a question, why does something as good as the magic armor have to be used in war? Is it bad to do some excavators, excavators, and excavators? ”
"Isn't this just an excavator...... Also, What is an excavator? “
"I'm just making an analogy. You see, why is there no magic armor to help the peasants plow the land? Why isn't there a magic armor for harvesting crops? Why isn't there a manned magic armor? Why isn't there a load-loaded magic armor? Why isn't there a magic armor that can be used to process and manufacture materials in large quantities? Why should such a powerful force only be used in the military? ”
"Uh...... That's because of the 'Forge Poem', I mean that the runi vocabulary and syntax used to forge magic armor don't support those uses...... That is, God did not give us those ......"
"God's gift? So is God really as the priests say, as the druids, shamans, and witches say, love the world? Is it the embodiment of goodness? ”
"Yes, God...... God is peace-loving. ”
"Then why not give us the strength to bless the world? Why are we only allowed to use magic to kill each other? Is killing beautiful? ”
"This ...... This ......"
Artoria felt that her theological literacy was not enough, and she could not talk about this godless fellow. Since there is no god in his eyes, what Lin Dengwan wants to do, he naturally will not worship heaven and earth.
In the original universe, he saw a lot of the kind of goods that claimed to be gods in front of primitive civilizations.
Even if this world is very magical, and there really is any "god", it is definitely not the guy who tied these natives hands and feet and put on headbands!
"If the gods don't let it, then I'll ...... myself Yes, we have made our own way. ”
As he spoke, Lin Dengwan picked up the magic armor in his hand and looked at it, very satisfied with his work.
"Relying on the wishes of thousands of people and the strength of thousands of people, we will definitely be able to ...... Definitely ......."
Lindenwan's smile coincided with a great hero she remembered, Gru had also questioned the sky in the last months of his life, and then he died.
"Can't let him say the following!" That was the only thought on Artoria's mind.
"Shut up!"
She pounced and covered Lin Dengwan's mouth. In a hurry, she was naturally not light or heavy, but Lin Dengwan was caught off guard, and the two fell down together.
The desk also shook and was thrown to the ground, and the tall pile of books collapsed, and the brick-like pile of books fell down.
In short, the flag was pulled out successfully!
