Chapter 300: The Iron Horse

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Recently, in the streets of Ayinro, the roar came and went, and the young mages rode by on mechanical iron horses, chasing each other, leaving a cloud of mess and black smoke in their wake.

The wheels with the brilliance of steel left wheel prints on the old streets, the young people who cheered and laughed enjoyed the passion of speed, the violent wind brought up the skirts and curses of the ladies, the violent black smoke blackened the vigilantes who heard the news, and as for the roar behind their heads, there were no license plates in the world for them to copy.

Soon, as the knights' driving skills continued to improve, new speed legends were constantly being refreshed, and chasing each other through the streets on roaring iron horses had become the most fashionable entertainment for young mages.

"Drag racers? A single week caused a traffic accident in the past year? Does it have anything to do with me? I'm just a legitimate businessman, and if someone kills someone with a kitchen knife that he bought, do you still want to arrest those who sell kitchen knives? ”

Looking at the indifferent young mage in front of him, Shirley, who was in charge of the disciplinary inspection work, was angry, but there was still nothing she could do.

This was not the first time she had dealt with the "master" in front of her, within a week, this master had actually come to the security bureau to receive people nine times, although it was not a bad crime, and his group of subordinates continued to set new records for the number and type of various moral lower limits.

Especially the half-dragon man has even made the cell his home, reporting on time every day, and he doesn't know what he did. He also made all the prisoners frantically ask the prison guards for help. Request for a change of cell

"This. I think it's safer here. ”

When he asked, the honest half-dragon man actually shuddered, and seemed to have offended many people, but when he checked the file, he actually found that he was a saint-level beast king hunter, and he said that he had succeeded in offending the epic and even the demigod mage in less than a week?

As for the others, they sell fakes. Running naked, causing explosions, brawls and making trouble, and constantly causing all kinds of trouble, if it weren't for the guarantee of the master in front of her, she would have put this group of guys in prison a long time ago.

But today, Shirley's patience has reached the limit, maybe the character of his subordinates cannot be equated with his own moral character, at least the embarrassment and depression of every time he comes to lead people is true, but the next day or even the afternoon of the same day, he ran to lead people again. In addition to making people doubt his sincerity that "will definitely take care of this group of bastards", more. It makes people wonder if this group of subordinates is a professional criminal group, or simply to make trouble for the Security Bureau and the Discipline Inspection Department.

But for the wave caused by the Garden of Thorns, this is still only one side.

The New Thorn Garden with those cute elf clerks, suddenly opened the market among female mages, even women who are not interested in plant magic, they also enjoy afternoon tea in the forest café behind the store all day long, watching these cute little guys running around can spend the whole day Of course, there are also male mages, especially some gray-haired old mages who want to mix in, but most of them can't stand the dazzling eyes of female mages, and they quickly run away.

While the female mages and apprentices used it as a retreat, the boys soon got their new toys as well.

The Iron Horse VII is a new gadget that constantly creates black smoke, noise, and traffic accidents in the streets and alleys in front of you, and it resembles a Goblin Engineering rocket car, but with only two wheels (Silver Hook: Training Wheels cost money!). And while the crowd was still questioning whether such a thing could run, the goblins who were demonstrators were already racing through the streets.

Originally, the mages only thought that this was another strange and dangerous new gadget of goblins, and they were ready to watch fireworks with snacks, but what was surprising was that in addition to those traffic accidents caused by driving mistakes, these iron horses did not explode automatically, which is completely inconsistent with the common sense of goblin engineering!

Soon, when a young man with a lot of money couldn't resist the temptation of a novelty, bought one for research, and unraveled it in public, the entire Cloud Tower became a sensation.

"Ultra-small energy pool! It's still so steady! How can it be?! ”

"No, no, it should just be rechargeable circulating pool water!"

"It doesn't matter what the principle is, as long as it can be used, it's enough."

"It seems that Master Hesta and Master Diego have gone in the wrong direction. There is no need to generate new energy in a small energy pool, just the ability to store and recharge. ”

"Olivia's Magic Box" is indeed an epoch-making invention, the biggest drawback of engineering is not the explosion of unstable dìng from the beginning, but the lack of stable and lasting power, using a special powerful biological magic core as a power source, not only is the cost too high, and once the power source is exhausted, before you get a new power source with similar properties, it will become a pile of scrap metal.

And when the power source that can be mass-produced and stable is solved, under my design and guidance, the loaded metal mount will naturally come into being.

And it was also expected that the mages would be able to discover the key points so quickly, after all, just for the research project of the micro energy pool, there were two truth-level mages competing with each other, but obviously there was not much progress, after all, this technology had problems with the research direction from the beginning.

The energy pool is no stranger to mages, each mage tower has its own large energy pool as a backup mana reserve, its principles are different, some can even extract energy from the heterotopic plane, with the support of the energy pool, and a high-level mage in his own mage tower is close to unlimited mana, saying that the strength has tripled or is counted as less.

"Don't attack a mage's lair." It is the basic rule of behavior of any adventurer, and those who dare to trample on this principle have basically hung up.

The reason why the ultra-small portable energy pool has always been studied by mages is also from enhancing the combat power of mages when traveling, but they are either from the soul, or from natural phenomena, or from alchemy, but obviously. No one had ever thought that engineering would have nothing to do with magic at all, and the latest came to a conclusion.

Follow the mage's technique. The smallest pool of power is the size of a room. For a long time, smaller technologies were considered impossible, as it took a lot of space to "open a stable exit from the heterotope" and "extract a powerful energy being".

After all, in a sense, although they are all scholars who pursue truth, magicians and "scientists" and alchemists look at things from a significantly different perspective, and there is no difference between them, after all, the most basic spells of mages violate the conservation of energy and matter that engineers use as the basis of their theories. From beginning to end, there are two roads, and if you insist on comparison, it is completely chicken and duck.

According to the principle of large and medium-sized energy pools, the mages only think about how to obtain more energy in a small position and make some kind of "perpetual motion machine", but they do not want to just save energy to achieve self-circulation, and it is enough to constantly recharge, and when there is a problem in the research direction, and there is no corresponding theoretical basis, whether the results can be obtained. It's probably the same as buying a lottery ticket.

When research that was thought impossible suddenly came to fruition, the top researchers among the mages spent their lives on the task of succeeding in the engineering of the goblins. And when the finished product is placed in front of everyone, even a calm mage can't accept it.

"Demolition!"

"Yes, take him apart!"

And under the cheering of the enthusiastic onlookers, when the owner was very interested and ready to open and study on the spot, he found a dense seal, and there was actually a "safety card" seal on it, which must be entered into the specified magic fluctuation to be lifted, of course, this little thing is not difficult for the mage, so, with the help of the archmage next to him, this small seal was immediately forcibly broken.

And then, no more

"Bang!" "Bang! “

Actually, it's nothing.,Mages are very good at all kinds of magic traps.,After cracking it with magic.,A keypad table of numbers will pop up.,To enter a password composed of 20 numbers in ten seconds.,Even if you know the password, you also have to have a high-speed hand speed.,For the mages who are not diligent in the five bodies,Obviously, this difficulty is a bit too high.。

Well, are the mages used to the explosions in their research, or do they still have a little bit of a conscience on the Golden Teeth, at least the energy pool detonated by this explosion is not very powerful, at least not dead.

But in a sense, the mages are really tyrants, and when the news of the small energy pool in that "Iron Horse Seven" spread, in one afternoon, the valuable Iron Horse series was all sold out, and then

Explosions were heard all over the city throughout the night, and then before dawn, the entrance to the Garden of Thorns was filled with "black people" queuing up to shop

Of course, when the top mages intervene, the door locks of the goblins can't hinder them for long, and it's only a matter of time before such a technology is cracked, but in fact, this technology that was originally intended to be sold is also on the next batch of sales lists, and when they are almost cracked, it's time to continue to grab money at sky-high prices.

And soon, in addition to research, these motorcycle iron horses were naturally tried by the mages, and another harvest was discovered.

"So smooth! Much more stable than horses! And soon! ”

In a sense, a long journey for a mage with a low constitution is definitely a hard job, and in their eyes, this novel gadget is far more comfortable and flat than a horse, and if it is just for enjoyment, it is nothing.

"You can actually sit on it and cast spells!"

The mage's spell requires full concentration, and even enters a trance for a short time, which is almost impossible to achieve if it is on a horse that is constantly bumping, and the smooth movement of these iron horses on the street attracts new attention.

The biggest shortcoming of the mage is undoubtedly the slow and sluggish body, once it is close, it is extremely difficult to open up the distance, if it can be cast at high speed, the strength multiplication is to be counted less.

But even if you are a battle mage class that specializes in combat casting, it is still extremely difficult to master the art of mobile casting, and the speed of movement is extremely slow, and if you sit in a carriage and cast spells on wooden wheels and bearings with no shock-absorbing ability, your ass will continue to go up and down, and a bump in the key moment can be a deadly magic backlash.

It is true that there is another mount that allows people to cast spells on it smoothly - giant beasts such as dragons, but it is difficult to obtain

Moving at high speed was once considered impossible, but it didn't seem too difficult to cast smoothly while sitting on an iron horse and a sidecar, and at that time, the advertisement for the Garden of Thorns was published, "Let those muscle sticks eat dust behind our butts forever".

As if to verify the content of this advertising slogan, the magic swordsmen from the north rode on motorcycles on the streets, perfectly demonstrating the excellent shock absorption performance of motorcycles, as well as the feasibility of casting spells in high-speed movement.

As long as the mage knows the mage's needs, this seemingly inconspicuous little toy can actually greatly improve the survival rate of the mage in the wild.

As a result, the Iron Horse No. 7 became a stepping stone to open the market, and the young people quickly learned the skills of motorcycle driving, and quickly threw away the useless training wheels, and even began to make the security officers hate drag racing competitions, while the old mages paid to hire drivers, and sat on the sidelines to enjoy the fun of driving.

For a moment, "Did you buy it?" "Bought a few" became a greeting among the mages, and there seemed to be a long queue at the entrance to the Garden of Thorns.

And this was the beginning, and after two days, the buyers had become snatch-ups, and a share of a hundred cars a day could be snatched up the night before.

But the most important thing is that the Garden of Thorns has come up with a new advertising slogan, and a month later, these iron horses can all be exchanged for "Justice Points".

"Justice points? The previous announcement has been heard, and it doesn't seem to be difficult to get started, but if you get it for a while, doesn't that mean that this iron horse will only be sold for a month? ”

Then the sales became even more popular, the Iron Knights who had already bought showed off on the streets, intensifying the competition with each other, and even for a sales place, the archmages were willing to take out their treasures, although a certain black-hearted merchant did not make a temporary price increase, but only sold sales places and made a lot of money.

This sales method seems to be very powerful, if there is anything more suitable for promotion than "good quality and low price" and "novel and interesting", it is probably only "limited sale, first come, first served" and "limited time sale, then out of print".

On the other hand, the rapid increase in street racing has made the Security Bureau and the Discipline Inspection Department represented by Shirley deeply disgusted.

And looking at the bulging blue-haired girl in front of me, I actually have a headache, and if I can, I don't want to offend the official security department.

It is slightly worth mentioning that the security management unit of the Cloud Tower is divided into two parts, one is the security bureau of regular security, and the other is the discipline inspection force within the various mage organizations.

The latter, in the name of the magician organization, investigates and punishes mages who cross the line by means of internal disciplinary inspection, of course, because there are many duplication of duties, the discipline inspection force is very idle when there are no mages who have committed crimes in the organization under their jurisdiction, so many mages from the discipline inspection department will also work part-time in the security bureau.

And this Shirley in my eyes. Mage Ailan, not only the enforcer of the Security Bureau, but also one of the high-level inspectors of the Discipline Inspection Department of the Arcane Blade, is nicknamed "Iron Maiden" and "Iron Throat", well, when the word steel falls on the lady, it is obviously not a good word, at least the ingredients such as cold noodles and stubbornness are real, but in a sense, it is a true portrayal of this overly serious female mage.

Just by the recent continuous leading people, I have understood that guy's more and more powerful nagging, the respect that I originally gained for being an archmage is gone, every time she looks at my expression, she always feels like she is looking at scum, and every time she sees me successfully lead people away, it is like the hot-blooded police detective in the old-fashioned movie who yells at the cunning villain, "I will definitely find evidence and send you to prison".

Why did I become a villain again?! Am I really the mocking face and sin generator of the teleportation?

And when I was still hesitating how to fool the "hot-blooded detective" in front of me, the sound of quarrels and explosions in the warehouse behind me came, and new trouble came to the door. (To be continued......)
