Chapter 353: Your Majesty, Did You Snatch the Priesthood of the Goddess of Recovery? (5200 words)
"New plans?" Harrison looked at Li De with some expectation, but his crown had wisdom hidden in his head that made the gods feel scorching.
"Yes, I call him the Neverwinter Project."
Li De smiled slightly, "The cold of winter is unbearable for everyone, but now most areas of Dawnbreak City, even our factories, have no heating equipment.
With such a long winter, in the absence of heating, it will inevitably cause a decrease in work efficiency or even a long downtime, which is a very big loss for the city of dawn as a whole.
That's why we need to heat all our factories and public spaces to provide a comfortable working environment for all. ”
"However, Your Majesty, in such a vast area, the cost of manufacturing the magic array, as well as the consumption of operation, are beyond our means."
Li De shook his head, "No, Harrison, we don't need to use the current magic array, but adopt a new method. ”
"A new way?"
Harrison was a little puzzled, was there a more effective way to heat than the magic circle?
"Yes", Li De nodded affirmatively, with a bit of deep meaning in his eyes.
"Make a heating channel like tap water, then heat the water at one end of the inlet, and let the hot water pass through the pipes so that there is plenty of heat in the places where the pipes pass.
This is heating in its simplest form. ”
"Tap water? But....... Patriarch, running water must be kept on a high place....... Are we going to burn the boiler in the mountains? ”
"No, we can replace the hot water with water vapor, and at high pressure, the temperature of the water vapor can reach a high temperature of two or three hundred degrees, which can provide enough heat ......."
"But how do we get this water vapor into the pipes?"
Harrison wasn't good at these things, and he was a little confused when he heard it, what water vapor heating, why did it sound so hard to understand.
Li De smiled slightly, "This doesn't need you to study, you just need to supervise the process."
Delegate the task to the Magical Industry Research Institute, and then tell them the idea of heating, and trust me, our Magical Industry Research Institute is smarter than you think. ”
After a long run-in, the Magical Industry Research Institute has slowly realized the potential of several races after merging.
Heating isn't too hard either, and a little research can figure it out, he just offers an idea.
And the heating had to be improved and optimized by this magic, which he was not familiar with.
After speaking, he looked at Harrison and said meaningfully, "Moreover, haven't we cultivated hundreds of life mages?"
You can have the Mage Tower research a magic circle that allows the Mage to input mana to maintain heating.
In the future, heating can not only exercise the ability of the mage, but also save us a lot of costs. ”
The wizarding world is going to solve problems in the wizarding world's ways.
Harrison was stunned by this commotion, how else could it be? Directly use people to heat??
Isn't it too sassy for the caster to heat the civilians?
The importance of heating is undeniable, and the city of dawn is almost in a state of silkworm dormancy throughout the winter, and even the whole glory is in this state, which is basically difficult to work in the heavy snow and cold air.
If three months of idle labor are lost, how much will the benefits of heating allow everyone to work in the winter?
So it's totally worth the initial investment.
This is the same as building roads, it seems that building roads will not make any direct contribution to economic and social development, but after repairing roads, it can save time and greatly improve efficiency.
The reason why Huaxia has developed so fast is inseparable from the extremely convenient infrastructure, the invisible benefits are invisible, but they have a profound impact on everyone.
After talking about heating, Li De suddenly remembered another project that is very suitable for winter - greenhouse vegetables.
After the city of dawn enters winter, the city of dawn can hardly eat any fresh vegetables, and it is all supported by bread.
If a city wants to develop well, infrastructure is often the key, and ensuring the basic food supply of residents is the basic of the basics.
Now that the City of Dawn is out of the famine, it is natural that it will develop in a better direction
"Harrison, in addition to heating, there's something called greenhouse vegetables......"
"Greenhouse vegetables?" Harrison was a little puzzled to hear this strange name.
Li De showed a little smile in his eyes, "This is a production method that allows you to eat vegetables grown in winter until spring." ”
Hiss~
Harrison gasped, can you eat spring-grown vegetables in winter??
"Your Majesty, are you sure you're not joking??"
This is a violation of the law of glory, and even touches the priesthood of the gods.
"Of course not."
Harrison was a little messy, and in the snow and ice, only the gods had the power to make plants grow out of the ice.
Could it be that His Majesty has really become a god?
"Your Majesty, have you robbed the goddess of resuscitation of the priesthood?? Otherwise, how is it possible to grow plants in the winter that can only grow in the spring??! ”
Li De shook his head with a smile, what does this guy think.
Although the goddess of resurrection is only weak in divine power, it is also a real god, and it is still very early to want to slaughter the god.
"Don't overcomplicate it, Harrison."
"I don't believe you didn't grab the priesthood, otherwise why would you be able to grow plants in the winter that only grow in the spring?
It's incredible!! This is the realm of the gods! ”
Looking at Harrison's incomprehensible gaze, Li De still felt a little wonderful, this was purely information crushing.
It's a wonderful feeling that something that is so common on earth is considered a miracle here.
"Harrison, greenhouse cultivation is a form of alchemy, and it has nothing to do with the gods."
"Alchemy?" Harrison was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes showed a little surprise, "Could it be legendary alchemy like tap water??" ”
The principle of tap water is simple, but it has long been a legendary alchemy by word of mouth, a miraculous creation bestowed upon them by His Majesty the great Cachar.
Harrison, who also knows how tap water works, is clearly more impressed by the fact that winter plants can be grown in spring.
Li De didn't bother to argue, and under the brief description of the current three words, he described the basic principles of greenhouse vegetables.
Harrison was immediately overjoyed after hearing this, and as the Speaker of City Hall, he naturally knew exactly what impact these livelihood construction projects would have.
The more prosperous the City of Daybreak becomes, the more stable the Bloodline's rule will be, and this is a virtuous circle.
Moreover, under the majesty of the goddess of ice and snow, it is possible to grow species that do not belong to this season, and this alchemy has already touched the realm of the gods.
It's really impressive.
"Your Majesty, your wisdom is the most valuable asset of the City of Dawn, and I think all its inhabitants will be proud to be your people."
Harrison's tone was filled with adoration.
This master of the Great Holy Light Blood Clan, the great ancestor of the Holy Light Blood Clan, is an existence that can grow spring plants in winter, although the greenhouse has not yet been seen, but it does not prevent Harrison from expressing his admiration for Li De.
"I only know the general principle of these things, and they need to be studied in depth by the Magic Industry Research Institute.
I hope to see results before this winter month ends. ”
Li De looked at Harrison, who was gradually becoming fanatical, and was also quite helpless.
It's just greenhouse vegetables...... What is the matter with the gods, can you talk a little bit about science? Don't keep talking about magic, okay?
"Yes, Your Majesty, you have shown us the way, and we will do the rest."
Harrison remained silent in his excitement, as if he had decided that this alchemy was unspeakably great.
Growing vegetables in the winter is too normal for Li De to think, but it is completely unthinkable for Indigenous people like Harrison, who are bound by glorious traditional knowledge.
Each season has a corresponding god in charge, it belongs to the realm of the gods, and now this greenhouse vegetable has touched the majesty of the gods, and even said in front of the ice and snow temple that it would be condemned to blasphemy.
There is a law in everything, how can it be violated?
However, no one in the City of Dawn would naturally dare to say anything to Li De, and after explaining this matter, Li De continued.
"The halflings of the Black Iron Castle will arrive in mid-December, how is the research institute's venue prepared?"
The cooperation with Black Iron Castle was not a temporary decision made by him, but the result of careful consideration.
Li De knew very well that the City of Dawn now needed to absorb more excellent things to grow.
And halflings are obviously a good option.
During his few days in Black Iron Castle, Li De also had a better understanding of the bows and arrows of halflings, and the bows and arrows produced by these natural archers were definitely fine.
If the bow and arrow produced by Daybreak City is 60 points, then the bow and arrow of the halfling is 80 points, which is two notches higher than them.
Even with the same material, the bows and arrows produced by the halflings are just as good as those produced in the City of Daybreak.
This made Li De quite greedy.
Both aerial and ground-based siege repeaters require bow-and-arrow crafting skills, and the Halfling can clearly make up for the lack of technology in Daybreak.
That's why he must ask the other party to set up a joint research institute with him to develop the transformation of the bow and crossbow.
In order to learn each other's skills and make up for shortcomings.
Although the army already has alchemy bombs on the attack side, the role of bows and crossbows in battle has not diminished in the slightest.
Whether it's fighting in the air or defending a city on the ground, a powerful bow and crossbow is the best weapon.
After the battle with the cave spider, Li De has a new understanding of the combat effectiveness of Daybreak City in all aspects, so he has been making various adjustments.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to worry, we have selected professionals from the Magical Industry Research Institute who are proficient and familiar with the manufacture of bows and arrows, not only the techniques of bow and arrow making, but also the way they train archers, we will definitely make you satisfied."
Li De nodded slightly, he had always had full confidence in Harrison.
"How did you arrange to send the mage to the Black Iron Castle?"
Harrison smiled a little, "Your Majesty, this is a rare opportunity. ”
"Oh?" Li De became interested, "What do you say?" ”
"The Daybreaker has always been a missionary only inside our city, never outside.
And to help Black Iron City train mages, it is completely possible to send some priests to spread the Daybreak Sect and spread your glory.
There are many advantages to spreading the sect to the outside world, not to mention the believers, such as being able to more clearly perceive the shortcomings of the Daybreak Sect itself, improve the transaction in practice, and improve the missionary method.......
I believe that with our propaganda, the dawn is about to shine on the underworld. ”
Li De nodded with satisfaction, which is why he deliberately won the right to preach in the terms of the Black Iron Castle.
As time went on, he could feel more and more the power of faith, the existence that even the gods were frantically snatching, how important it really was.
Especially after the successful construction of the Ancient Alchemy Magic Array, his priesthood can be fused with the Magic Array, and the characteristic of transforming other races into blood races appears.
The importance of the power of faith has been raised to a new level.
After the construction of the Ancient Alchemy Magic Array of the Demon Crystal Vein is successful, he will inevitably transform other races into blood clans.
For example - Blood Two-Headed Ogre, Blood Giant, Blood Elf, Blood Dwarf, Blood Centaur...... And so on and so forth.
Even if the dragon is captured in the future, it will be transformed into a blood dragon, tsk tsk, that scene, think about it, it's spectacular.
And Li De is also very curious, how much will other races get improved after being transformed into the blood clan, and can they be transferred to the profession of the blood clan?
Of course, the premise of all this needs to be supported by the power of faith, and without the power of faith it is a fantasy.
But at present, the biggest problem for Li De is that the number of believers in the City of Dawn is almost fixed, and the number of believers is as large as the population, and it is impossible to have explosive growth.
So he shifted his attention to the underground world, once the faith was spread in the underground world, it would be different, and it was likely to bring a large number of believers.
Thinking of the scene of millions of believers in the underground world believing in him, Li De was in a happy mood, and when the time came, he directly transformed those two thousand giants into blood clans, and tens of thousands of orcs into blood orcs, and his attributes were absolutely strong.
"On the issue of proselytizing, the town hall must cooperate well with the Daybreaker Sect, this is a great attempt, and if it succeeds, we will reap great benefits.
It is even possible to try to export the Daybreak Sect to the human world, which will be a milestone starting point. ”
Li De's gaze has never been limited to a corner.
It's just that he didn't have the opportunity before, and the time is not ripe, and after he meets the requirements of his heart, he will not mind directly preaching to humanity.
Of course, the premise of all this is to ensure the safety of the City of Daybreak.
The two then discussed some details about the mission and the partnership with Blackiron before Harrison hesitated.
"Your Majesty, there's one more thing for you to decide...... It's about God's ....... of holy clothing."
"Say."
"The God-given Holy Costume has been officially mass-produced, and the first batch of Bloods have been equipped with this kind of equipment that can isolate the power of holiness, but ...... It's expensive. ”
Hearing this, Li De's eyes immediately lit up.
The Bloods have always been constrained by two major shackles – fear of holy power and dependence on human blood.
The shackle of having to suck human blood has been lifted because of sustainable development strategies and the remains of the gods.
Fear of the sun, fear of the light, this is the greatest enemy of the Bloods right now, and the God-given Holy Costume is the blade that kills this enemy.
The God-given Holy Costume has been studied for nearly two years, and it has been said that it will be developed soon, but there has been no follow-up.
If this chain is cut at this time, the blood clan can really be called infinitely potential, and the future can be expected.
"It's okay, as long as you can solve the shortcomings of the blood clan, it's worth the big price."
Li De was excited, "Go get one." ”
Harrison immediately ordered the guards to fetch it, but there was still hesitation on his face.
"Your Majesty, do you want to listen to the cost before making a decision......
Hearing Harrison repeat again, a bad feeling suddenly rose in Li De's heart.
"You say."
Harrison paused for a moment, then whispered out a number that made Lid's scalp tingle.
"Each God-given Holy Costume costs 1 pound of Mithril, and a large amount of other magical materials need to be purchased from the Human Realm, which costs about 5,000 Quimpuk.
And if you want to make a God-given Holy Costume that works better, then the cost will increase exponentially. ”
5,000 gold Puk, which costs an additional 1 pound of Mithril??
Li De has a very fast husky feeling at this time, why is this so expensive??
"How much does Dawnbreaker earn each month right now??"
"Your Majesty, counting all kinds of trade, about 400,000 gold Puke, which does not count the income of Mithril and Magic Crystal Veins."
Mithril and Magic Crystal Veins are both used by themselves, and it is impossible to sell them, so this part naturally does not need to be counted as Jinpuk, as long as they are treated as special materials.
"400,000 gold puk?"
Li De was silent for a moment, this data is definitely not small.
According to the purchasing power of "Glory", a kimpuk is equivalent to about 10,000 RMB.
Of course, if it is exchanged to the earth, now because the game has just opened the server, the premium is very high, and it can reach 20,000 RMB.
It is equivalent to his current monthly income in Glory is 4 billion.
But this data is not very gorgeous, after all, he has a city of 100,000 people, and countless troops waiting to be fed.
The construction of the city needs to be spent, the employees of various departments need to be spent, and various important scientific research units need to be spent, such as the Daybreak Mage Tower, the Daybreak School, the Alchemy Factory, etc., all need to consume a lot of money.
These are all fine, and most importantly - the attrition of the army.
Now the army of the City of Dawn consumes almost half of the financial revenue, and the forging of various weapons and equipment, the production of engineering equipment, and even the logistics supply support all require a large amount of Jinpuk to flow out.
So now, although Li De is very tyrant, in the case of raising a city, he is often a landlord and has no surplus food.
At this time, the God-given holy clothes were so expensive that he felt that he could not afford them.
"I didn't expect that I had been farming for so long, and finally succeeded in becoming a poor man, earning 4 billion a month......
Taking a deep breath, "Why is it so expensive, wasn't it enough to have hundreds or thousands of gold puks before?" ”
Harrison smiled a little wryly, "Your Majesty, so the God-given Holy Clothes made before are very rough, and this is already the cost after repeatedly lowering it......."
"How many kimpuks are on the books now?"
"870,000 ......"
870,000? Li De breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, there was some surplus food in the house.
But if you put it all in, you can only produce more than a hundred God-given Holy Clothes, which is too exaggerated.
"Wait, I'll take a look at the current attributes of the God-given Holy Costume and then decide how many ...... to produce"
Harrison also knew that this cost had broken through the sky, so he was silent and didn't say much.
But he firmly believed that Li De would change his mind when he saw the attributes of God's holy clothing.
Ten minutes later.
Horn, the dean of Daybreak Academy, the elder of the Riesle family, and the great polymath scholar, walked into the office with a face full of excitement.
Holding a mage robe in his hand that made Li De's eyes shine.
