Chapter 269: The Closed Beta Is Over, and a New Era Is Coming (6400 Words)
Compared to the vigor of the King's Blade, the establishment of Dawn Wings is a bit calm.
Because the members of Daybreak Wings are all drawn from the King's Blade.
Or rather, the King's Blade rules over the Wings of Dawn.
King's Blade is more like the military headquarters of Daybreaker.
Subordinate to the Ministry of Public Security, which is responsible for internal security, and a Wings of Dawn have now been established.
In Li De's plan, the King's Blade will even have to manage all armies except the Bloodline.
The composition of the King's Blade after is not only human, but also can absorb high-quality combat power from other races if there is a demand in the later stage.
Like cyclops, like orcs......
The army that swore allegiance to him would be the blade in his hand, hence the name King's Blade.
The blade of this army will slide down the throats of all enemies with a deadly aura.
However, at present, the power of this King's Blade is still very weak, and it still needs a lot of investment to form combat effectiveness.
Armor, equipment, training, and even actual combat, these warriors with a low average level must at least reach level 5 or even level 7 before they can be truly formed.
However, for now, these new soldiers have little impact on the overall situation, especially the warriors of Daybreaker Wings, who are more likely to fight with the Demon Bat, and there will be very few scenes of hand-to-hand encounters with the enemy.
Most of them are airdrops.
Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the Demon Bat is not very strong, in Li De's expectation, the function carried by the Demon Bat in battle after carrying the alchemy bomb is mostly the effect of a bomber, not a fighter.
"If that's the case, then maybe we can design two armors based on the experience of the earth, one for bomb dropping and one for combat."
Thinking about it, Li De's eyes suddenly lit up.
"The combat armor is responsible for the battle, and the bomb armor is responsible for the bombing, and it can even be further modified, and the combat can be carried out directly after the bomb is dropped......."
"But all this still has to wait until the armor is designed, and it is said that it can be developed in this direction in the later stage, and the first batch of ammunition that can be loaded and dropped will be released in a short time."
"At this rate, it may not take until the beginning of next year for the real Air Force to take shape...... It's going to take time. ”
Li De was a little emotional, but he was not too anxious about it.
Building an army that has not been done before is definitely not so simple, and all kinds of supporting measures need to be improved little by little, and it is not just a matter of just taking a box and putting an alchemy bomb in it.
Everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as you get off to a good start, the next development can be gradual.
Bang bang bang~
A knock on the door interrupted Li De's thoughts.
"Enter."
"Good day, patriarch......" Harrison's somewhat tired face appeared in front of Li De's eyes, as the chairman of the town hall, even as a blood clan, he was not lightly tired this month.
A petite figure behind Harrison also stepped into the room, and a girl in a blue priest's robe smiled and saluted to Li De.
"Good day, Lord of Kachar."
Li De looked at the two of them and nodded, showing a little smile, "Harrison, I've worked hard for you this time."
Nicole, the City of Dawn is in a critical period of development, and this is a valuable opportunity to study hard and take on more important responsibilities in the future. ”
Nicole's big eyes flickered, and her little face was full of spirituality, and this girl who was not yet seventeen years old and a little thin was now a big man in the town hall.
Many policies have been promulgated through her hands, and her words and deeds can change the fate of countless people.
Nicole's talent in government affairs also made Li De more and more fond of this girl, who was too talented, and trained her to be Harrison's successor.
Of course, Harrison doesn't need a successor as a blood clan, as long as he doesn't participate in the battle to die, and live for thousands of years like playing.
"Got it, Kachar City Lord~"
Nicole grinned, two cute little tiger teeth exposed, and her face was unique to a girl.
The girl looked seven points like his holy priest Nilo, but this little girl had a very special spirituality, which she could maintain after countless sufferings, which was really precious.
"Do you have anything to report?"
Li De glanced at Nicole with some amusement, this little girl was different from others, and it seemed that there was rarely a time of restraint in front of him.
"Lord Kachar, it's Daybreak in a few days, do we need to have a big festival?"
Nicole's eyes sparkled and her tone was full of yearning.
Dawn Festival, in the winter month last year, Li De held a hero selection contest in order to screen out the first batch of blood clans.
The 12 winning inhabitants were selected and awarded the title of Twelve Heroes, made them Bloodline in front of all the inhabitants, and awarded them the Order of Daybreak.
The statues of the twelve heroes are still standing on the street in front of Daybreak Square, where the original hero contest ended.
The Dawn Festival is a festival specially set up by Li De to unite people's hearts, and stipulates that December 31 every year is the Dawn Festival, which means to welcome new hopes.
The hearts of the people of a city are definitely not simply cohesive, with common slogans, common beliefs, common festivals, and common language......
Each of these adds a certain amount of popular support, and when it all comes together, the city is a city as solid as steel.
Li De's operation in this regard was already foreshadowed last year.
"Naturally, this is our first festival", Li De smiled slightly, "pass on my decree, and in the future, the Dawnbreak Festival will be stipulated in the form of law, and the Dawnbreak Festival will have a week's holiday, starting from three days before the Dawn Festival and ending on January 4 of the following year."
These seven days are a festival for all the inhabitants of the City of Dawn, and the town hall does not need to work anymore, except for the necessary departments such as the security team.
And the salaries of all residents are paid normally. ”
Hearing this, Nicole's eyes lit up, and her little face was full of joy, and the two little tiger teeth became more and more cute at this time.
You can take seven days off?? And you can also get a salary??
"It's just amazing!! Praise you Kachar City Lord~"
At this time, the little girl is very much like those office workers on the earth who hate to work, and she is excited when she hears about the holiday.
Li De is a little funny, these guys who work 996 all day and enjoy good fortune, it seems that there is only one real holiday all year round.
And everybody is incredibly grateful to him for having one day off a week, which is really ...... Extravagant.
A festival can ease the city's recent tensions a little, and it won't affect the construction schedule much.
Moreover, the cohesion of this incident on people's hearts is definitely not comparable to the loss caused by a few days of work stoppage.
"Is there anything else?"
"Yes~" Nicole came back from her joy, and her big black eyes blinked at Li De.
"The first phase of the Weapons Factory has been completed, and Master Valen conducted a forging test this morning.
Just now they have passed the forging test and are now ready for use. ”
Oh? Can the weapons factory be put into production?
Li De's eyes lit up.
The Alchemy Factory and the Weapons Factory were the buildings he was most interested in during this time, and the alchemy factory had been built at a slightly slow pace due to the need to consider safety considerations.
Weapons factories, on the other hand, don't have to think about it so much, so they will be built much faster.
The concept of the weapon factory was taught by Li De to Valen, a dwarven blacksmith, and he also took a lot of information from the earth for the other party's reference.
But how exactly the factory was built, how the forging steps inside were designed, this is what the dwarves themselves designed.
Li De had little interest in forging weapons, nor was he familiar with the dwarves' workflow, so he left it to their own construction.
Anyway, the construction skills of the guys who mine all day are not necessarily worse than the forging skills, so you can solve it yourself.
"Let's go, let's go and have a look." Li De was in high spirits.
Every time he built a new building inside the City of Dawn, he felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
The weapons factory was built to the west of the Moonlight Plain, next to the steelmaking blast furnace not far away, and this area is currently divided into a restricted area, which is forbidden to outsiders.
The area where the City of Dawn is located is a canyon area, and the wind blows from the middle and scatters to both sides, so the steelmaking exhaust here will be blown directly into the sky and will not affect the normal life of the residents.
This was taken into account when the site was first selected.
When the figure of Li De and his party appeared in front of the weapons factory that had been built and leveled and paved with bluestone floors, Warren, who got the news, hurriedly went out to greet him.
"Lord Kachar, our weapons factory has been built!!"
After meeting Li De, the dwarven forging master was extremely excited, "The quality of the weapons we forged in this way is very stable, and the attributes are not much worse than the weapons forged by the dwarves alone......
Weapons factories are simply genius ideas!
The God of Forging is above, and you must be a treasure given to us by the God of Forging......"
The corners of Li De's mouth twitched fiercely when he heard this, MMP, you didn't say that before.
Didn't you say that weapon factories don't conform to the forging habits of dwarves and can't forge good equipment?
used to be called Mrs. Niu, but now it is called Xiao Tiantian......
I don't change your face as quickly as you do.
"You've already started?"
"That's right, City Lord Kachar, in order to adjust the process, we first forged a batch of weapons for sample testing in the morning, but I didn't expect the assembly line effect you said was surprisingly good.
Each person is only responsible for one process of forging, which of course cannot forge high-level equipment [567 Chinese] equipment, but the equipment used to forge equipment below the rare level is definitely an artifact!!
You are so great!! It must be the God of Creation who has given you great wisdom!! ”
As he spoke, Valen slapped Lide's ass again.
Looking at the excited Valenreid, he couldn't help but laugh, how much stimulation was this guy??
"Take me to see your results."
"Yes, you'll be surprised!" Valen smiled happily and led the group into the weapons factory, which was separated by a high bluestone wall.
Harrison and Nicole, who were behind them, also followed Li De into the building that had just risen from the ground with curiosity.
There are no superfluous decorations in the weapons factory area, all of which are made of stone, revealing a strong dwarven style.
When Li De came to the warehouse and saw the pile of equipment scattered together because there were no weapon racks, he finally understood why Valen was so excited.
This mountain of equipment was a mixture of weapons of the three levels of common, rare, and rare, and there were as many as four or five hundred pieces.
"This is what you forged in half a day??" Li De was also a little surprised when he saw this scene, didn't he say that it was only built and ignited this morning? So much forged in the middle of the day?
Valen nodded proudly.
"Yes, this is our first attempt.
After the factory began to forge more than five hundred pieces of equipment in just one morning, and that was only the work of fifty dwarves.
Although the attributes of the equipment produced in this way are slightly ordinary, they are not as perfect as those forged by the dwarves alone.
But I'm confident enough that after changing the technique later, we can forge good enough equipment.
And we can continue to increase our production speed......"
Compared with the assembly line production of the factory, the previous practice of the dwarf forging a weapon by himself may have better attributes, but the efficiency is too low.
An assembly line of fifty dwarves can produce thousands of weapons a day, but if you forge them alone, each of the fifty dwarves can forge two or three handles alone, which is already super efficient.
Moreover, although the attributes of the weapons forged on the assembly line have decreased slightly, they are also completely within the acceptable range, which is not surprising to Valen.
With such a simple operation, the productivity of the dwarves was directly magnified by five or ten times.
And as you become more familiar with your forging parts, your productivity will skyrocket.
"We can train young blacksmiths so hard that their strength and skill will definitely increase dramatically when they forge steel at such high intensity in the factory!
What a genius idea for the weapons factory, Lord of Cachar, praise you! ”
Li De looked at Valen, who was in a frenzy, and shook his head a little funny.
"Fix the production process of the weapons factory as soon as possible.
What I want to see is that you can produce whatever level of weapons you produce.
Now the weapons factory is just the beginning, and it is still far from the state I want.
From now on, you will be solely responsible for managing the production of weapons in Daybreak City, with the assistance of the City Hall.
The weapon factory is responsible for forging low-level weapons, and the high-equipment forging department is responsible for forging high-level equipment that cannot be produced by the weapon factory. ”
Li De didn't talk nonsense and directly made a request to this dwarf forging master,
"The weapon factory can be divided into three production plants, the ordinary level equipment production plant is mainly arranged with low-level blacksmiths, the rare level equipment is mainly arranged with intermediate blacksmiths, and the rare level equipment is mainly arranged with high-level blacksmiths.
Each time these blacksmiths were promoted, they were transferred to the next level of production and their pay increased...... Until finally transferred to the Advanced Equipment Forging Department.
Li De still made a more detailed division of labor arrangement, so that he could achieve the state that what level of equipment he wanted to produce could be produced according to the requirements.
Stability is a very important indicator of a plant.
"Valen, I'll teach you here, don't let me down."
He had high hopes for weapons factories.
The degree of attention is not even worse than that of the alchemy factory.
The Alchemy Bomb is powerful, but the weapons forged by the dwarves are not bad, this is a magical world, and the powerful armor can completely resist the Alchemy Bomb unscathed.
Moreover, he is not ready to trade with the outside world in the short term of the alchemy bomb, and he only keeps this big killing weapon for himself.
But the weapons factory is different, and in the rational plan it is for export.
It's like selling to a tribe of centaurs.
A domestic sale, a foreign trade to make money, with the money earned from foreign trade to support the domestic project.
"Lord Cachar, rest assured, the dwarves will not let you down!
When it comes to forging weapons, the Dwarves are the most glorious! ”
Valen held his head high, his face full of pride and pride, and the two little braids on his long beard were particularly eye-catching.
When it comes to forging weapons, the dwarves have enough capital to be proud of.
In fact, as the dwarven forge master said, the dwarves are definitely recognized as the first among all races in the main plane in forging weapons, and there is no dispute.
A few people followed Valen to the built weapons factory and took a look, which was similar to what Li De expected, all of them were assembly line operations, and they were full of strong magical style.
After the inspection, Li De didn't pay much attention, he only needed to be in charge of the general direction, and these details naturally didn't need him to deal with it personally, and he was not so idle.
After returning to the city hall after the inspection, Li De seemed to remember something, and frowned and asked Harrison behind him.
"Harrison, can we be able to produce steel now?"
Because the whole city is under construction, a lot of steel is needed in all aspects, and Li De has used all his inventory to forge hundreds of large-scale equipment worn by centaurs.
So the amount of steel, which has been tight, is once again in an embarrassing situation.
Harrison smiled wryly and shook his head.
"Because of the cold weather, human productivity is now greatly reduced, and the Valley of the Giants relies only on cyclops for production.
In the Dwarven Valley, because the mine has just been reopened, many abandoned facilities need to be rebuilt, even if there are many orcs, but there is still very little ore produced.
We expect to be starving in the winter months. ”
Li De nodded slightly, the problem of low steel production has been plaguing him, and even more than him, there is no shortage of strategic metals such as steel in this world.
It's just that the difference is whether there is more or less is missing.
The city of dawn, which has a weak foundation, is obviously still at the bottom, and the lack of various materials is as much an obstacle to the rapid development of the city as the sparse population.
However, this matter is not easy to solve, and if you want to obtain ore on a large scale, you need to increase the investment of production manpower or improve production efficiency, but now it is ......
Thinking about it, Li De's eyes lit up, and he turned his head to look at the petite Nicole beside him.
"Nicole, how many alchemy bombs have goblins produced now?" This little girl has been following the progress of the alchemy bomb and the alchemy factory.
"In total, more than 600 have been stored in the past few days."
Nicole's big black eyes rolled as if she thought of something, and she was a little curious, "Are you planning to use alchemy bombs for mining?" ”
Li De glanced at the little girl appreciatively, "That's right, it doesn't matter if the ore is hard, we can use bombs, some hard points can be blasted......"
Blasting mining is not an uncommon occurrence on Earth, but if it is carried out in glory, it needs to be studied.
The power of the alchemy bomb is not small, and it is likely to blow up the mine directly.
"Nicole, you follow up on this matter, and let Moore take a few goblins to the Valley of the Giants to experiment with the mining of ore by alchemy bombs.
It's a good idea to bring a few experienced dwarves with you as well.
If the Alchemy Bomb is used well, it can definitely greatly improve the efficiency of mining. ”
Nicole was very interested in such strange things, and her big beautiful eyes showed a sparkling light, and she nodded repeatedly.
"No problem, I'll go right away~"
After waiting for this little girl immediately, Li De shook his head a little amusedly, and turned to look at Harrison.
"Isn't there any news from Craig's side yet?"
After the fall of Riesl City, Craig, a level 16 werewolf, has not moved, and along with Craig, Amy, who has attracted the fire of the city guards and fled into the darkness.
The two of them just lost contact.
The little bat lost its breath when it flew into the city of Riesr, and the orc shamans used magic to isolate the city, and several attempts by the intelligence department to contact the other party were ineffective.
After the orc army invaded the city of Riesr, they did not make any more moves, as if the city of Riesr was their final destination.
"No, the news of Rysle City has been blocked, even if we sent a large number of small bats to check around, we couldn't get more news......"
"Just keep an eye on it, for now our focus can be taken back from the orcs."
Li De waved his hand, he didn't bother to contact Craig through the soul mark, and after knowing that the orcs would not attack Riesr City, he lost interest in this fierce army.
At the moment, what the orcs do has little impact on him, and his focus is temporarily on building the City of Daybreak.
Even the plundering of the population has deliberately slowed down the city hall in the past few days, and the large influx of people has indeed caused a great impact on this weak city.
He needed to stretch the line to house these new residents.
"Yes, Patriarch."
Harrison nodded and didn't say much, this second-generation bloodline has always been like this when communicating with Li De, Li De explained that he listened, and only asked questions when he didn't know Li De's specific thoughts.
This is also the reason why Li De relies so much on Harrison, this second-generation bloodline can perfectly implement his will, and the tacit cooperation between the two is also a guarantee for the rapid development of the City of Dawn.
"Also, be sure to prepare for the next Daybreak Festival, this is an opportunity to unite people's hearts, and now the old residents are obviously unable to assimilate them in a short time under the onslaught of new residents who have multiplied them.
We need to give confidence and courage to all residents. ”
Li De's eyes are deep, population is both potential and pressure, and he needs to further release the potential.
Just when Li De was about to continue arranging the task, his expression froze slightly,
Because a sudden system prompt rang in my ears.
"Ding~ Player Glory Light is the first to break through level 5 and become the first intermediate professional, and this closed beta will be closed in three minutes.
The next time "Glory" will be open beta time announced on the official website, please prepare for going offline. ”
The closed beta is about to close??
Li De's face was a little strange.
Because the player's power at this stage is very weak and his sense of presence is not strong, he ignores that these sand sculptures are still in internal testing.
After this closed beta is closed, the next time will be the real open beta of the game......
Li De suddenly seemed to see the scene of tens of millions of players frantically pouring into glory.
At this point, instead of the initial fear of facing the player's approach, he ...... Slightly looking forward to it.
He was eager to see how these guys were beaten and taught to be human by the Glory Aborigines.
At the same time, his backhand, the Crimson Moon, will also be officially entered in the game during the open beta.
At that time, he was an athlete and a referee, and he issued tasks to his own people.
With his support, the Crimson Moon can definitely become another sharp blade in his hands.
The City of Dawn, the Crimson Mage Tower, the Covenant of Darkness, the Lion Tribe, and the upcoming Crimson Moon of the Undead bring the number of forces he can directly control to five.
And every force can definitely handle it.
The City of Dawn has blood, dwarves, goblins, and cyclops,
The Scarlet Mage Tower has a magic factory, there's Spark,
The Covenant of Darkness has the name of Iro's crown and the prestige of one of the three major forces that have been in business for decades.
The lion tribe has a vein of mythril ore and tens of thousands of orc warriors,
The Crimson Moon has players who can be revived constantly.
A megaboss that spans players, orcs, human aristocrats, and the dark world is about to go live.
