But to be honest, Mo Chen didn't expect that it would be such an unimaginable huge return in the end, which was far beyond his expectations at the beginning.

But if you talk strictly about it, it seems to be ...... As if it's not something impossible?

After all, whether it is a civilian with no background or a ruthless gangster, in the original plot, there is hope to rise to the throne and become the new upstart who rules Sokonos.

So, if it were him, how could he say that he would be more reliable than them in the eyes of Queen Emily, right?

Moreover, Empress Emily was probably unavailable, but Sokonos could not be without a ruler, so she had to bite the bullet, regardless of whether the other party was a radical monastery or an illegal trench gangster......

- Anyway, she has to make a choice.

And if Mo Chen appears in that situation, as a candidate target, then should he choose an ally like him who can already be trusted, or choose other guys who seem unreliable?

This question should be very simple.

However, Mo Chen chose another way to deal with it, that is, to continue to maintain his previous rule as a fake duke, at least on the surface, no one knew that Sokonos had changed rulers.

The false duke can use his ideas to govern Sokonos, and use his grand ambition to truly bring peace and tranquility to the people of the southern continent. It's no longer like before, just a puppet like a stand-in.

Mo Chen will not interfere with the process of realizing his ambitions, but he must also cooperate with some of Mo Chen's plans in other places.

This is also a helpless choice, after all, it is impossible for Mo Chen to directly settle in the world over there, and as a ruler, if he is often not online, then it is better to become the mastermind behind the scenes.

If the ruler on the surface is often absent, the people below will inevitably have some thoughts that they should not have.

But the mastermind behind the scenes does not show up and does not appear, but it is more mysterious, and it is even more impossible for people to have a confrontational mentality, and Mo Chen has enough control means to deal with such a demand, which just meets the requirements.

Jindoshi has now returned to Karnaca and has begun to secretly set up his clockwork factory to produce inhuman clockwork machines. It's just that due to the existence of Empress Emily, he will definitely not be able to use his previous identity again.

And this kind of behavior is not mainly to create a pure killing machine - it is the previous version of the clockwork warrior, which is purely for fighting and killing, and basically has no other use.

Mo Chen mainly asked Jin Duoxi to improve the clockwork warrior at the same time, but also to develop a version of the clockwork machine that can be used for production purposes, even if it is to help mining, in a sense, this represents the future development direction of that world.

And in doing so, it was justified for Aramis Stilton to help cover up the existence of the Clockwork Factory in the Dust Zone, and that the conscientious superior who had been rescued from the misfortune of three years earlier had been trying to help the miners' families in any way he could.

Mo Chen intends to make people accept the existence of the clockwork machine in this way.

In this case, if we can succeed in starting another industrial revolution, we will soon be able to start exporting clockwork machines from Karnaca to major cities and even to other continents.

——A world equivalent to steam civilization, the Great Leap Forward has generally entered the era of automation and intelligence, and that kind of picture feels emotional when you think about it.

And as long as he can take it for granted that clockwork technology can be transported to Danwall, then Mo Chen will be able to seize this opportunity and continuously develop the power of the Clockwork Warriors in the real world.

As for now, of course, he has the conditions to bring that killing machine to reality, but the number must be limited.

After all, trade between the islands and the mainland of the archipelago empire is also thriving, so similar concepts such as "smuggling" and "customs" have also been extended. So before the clockwork machine is legalized, it is simply impossible to ship it in large quantities.

Once found out, it will definitely cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

So Mo Chen still decided to let Jin Duoxi make a small number of clockwork warriors from real-world materials as much as possible, and wait until the rest is slowly made up later.

However, in this case, there will probably be a considerable period of time when Jindoshi will need to keep going back and forth between the two worlds.

……

……

"The basic calculations of the rear have been laid, and the next step is to develop production......

Mo Chen walked around his room a little excitedly, talking to himself like a broken thought, and then raised his head to look at the already familiar room, and couldn't help but sigh again.

"Having finally come to this point, it's time to shift positions and find a real base camp."

This house is probably an unattainable luxury for many young people of his age, but it is no longer able to meet the needs of his next plans.

Maybe it's still feasible as a temporary base or transit station or something, but if you want to really develop it...... But it's a little unrealistic.

However, Mo Chen is thinking about going abroad directly to toss, and then he can let the birds fly - the most important thing is to avoid involving some sensitive issues in the country, which will lead to the tragedy of the arrival of the 404 Great Demon.

However, in that case, it would involve the problem of requiring a lot of money.

Mo Chen's current identity is rather embarrassing, and although he is not short of money, he is not to the extent of spending money. It's probably just an ordinary rich second generation, who is relatively rich, so it stops there.

Not to mention whether the financial resources of the family with this status can support his next plan, even if he can, he really has no face to ask his parents for money with this status.

This is not his parents, and doing so will give him a sense of betrayal.

From the fact that he hadn't thought about trying to master magical abilities such as "mining body memories" at all, it could be seen that Mo Chen didn't really want such an identity.

He subconsciously didn't want to play such an identity, and he was even expecting a situation where he might be recognized. In that case, he doesn't have to worry about making a choice, and at that time, he just left neatly.

So he would never ask the parents for money, and even then he had to make up all the money he had used before.

Mo Chen decided that in the future, if the parents didn't find anything wrong, he would keep this white lie, so that the parents wouldn't be sad or anything because of the loss of their son.

As for the living expenses they call regularly every month, Mo Chen will not refuse, and of course he will not use them.

This would give them peace of mind and not be suspicious, and he would be able to save up some of the money. In case something affects their business in the future, and something goes wrong, there will not be nothing left.

That's probably it, there's only so much Mo Chen can do.

He walked over and sat down at the computer desk in his room, then turned on the computer and began to look up the Internet for information he wanted to know, he had always searched for information about some special place through the Internet.

After all, whether you can find that kind of place is more or less, and it depends on whether you can find it.

Mo Chen had already locked several of them before, but they were no longer within the city, and he had no way to really walk away before, so he didn't think about disposing of them for the time being.

In fact, there must be so many such places in the world, and it is very unrealistic to rely entirely on Mo Chen by himself and do it one by one in order.

At this time, it is necessary for him to really start forming the mysterious organization, which is the core key of his next plan.

From now on, you need to start preparing and execute it as soon as the time comes.

……

……

Twenty days later.

When the chaos of the archipelago empire in the disgraced world was finally completely calmed down, the huge damage caused by the coup d'état of Delila began to repair Danwall, and the people of the imperial capital returned to the city one after another.

Everything really got on track.

With Kindoch's reluctant busyness, a clockwork factory in the Dust Zone, located on the edge of the city of Karnaca, in the Bastita mining area, was established and put into production.

It is not right to say that it will be put into production, after all, strictly speaking, the cost of each clockwork soldier is too high, and he is still working on an improved version, trying to reduce the production cost to a price that is acceptable for mass production.

— and is also preparing to develop a non-combat clockwork machine that his new master requires.

But it shouldn't be difficult, with the same technological power as the steam age, he has created a black technology that has the ability to lock on to the target through camera and sound capture, can quickly distinguish between friend and foe, and can also fight accurately and flexibly-

A clockwork warrior who is too black to be black.

Now it's just a matter of changing the field of application and moving them from a combat to a non-combat one.

The difficulty of this matter should be no higher for Jindoxi's evil brain than it is to find a way to reduce the cost of manufacturing.

Moreover, he did not stay in the clockwork factory in the dust area all the time to try to improve production, but after successfully setting up the factory and arranging everything, he spent more time in another world.

It's a very simple choice, after all, the cost of production is actually different in the two worlds, for example, if you want a hundred kilograms of steel as a material in ancient times, it is almost impossible to do it.

But in modern times......

Anyway, the strategy is to try to produce clockwork warriors on this side of the earth, challenge the goal of reducing costs, and then return to the other world to apply it after getting the results.

The two worlds can only be said to have their own advantages and disadvantages, limited to the problem that the portal cannot be expanded and moved, and many advantages of the two worlds cannot be interconnected, and can only be used in turns.

The materials on this side of the earth are complete, and the cost is low and the weight is full, but it cannot be transported in large quantities, and it is temporarily impossible to set up a production line of clockwork technology here, it is too easy to expose.

Mo Chen rented a large warehouse in a certain development zone in the city, which was specially used to conduct experiments in this area for Jin Duoxi.

And until today, the results have finally come out -

Jin Duoxi has not been able to reduce the cost of production much, but he has already succeeded in making two clockwork soldiers, considering that he has no one to help, he is completely relying on his own production and assembly, which is indeed an achievement.

Mo Chen didn't have any opinion on this, there were two clockwork warriors in the real world, which was indeed very useful, it was good to guard the door, and it was also more flexible than the arc tower or the light curtain generator.

Moreover, he did have a great interest in this kind of thing, and immediately tried to set all kinds of strange instructions for them.

As a result, the two clockwork soldiers almost "crashed......

According to Jindosh, their intelligence is actually not against the sky, there is no way to accept too complex instructions, and there is no way to accept too many instructions at the same time.

After all, they are still machines at heart, and it is impossible to expect them to be able to truly understand human thoughts.
