Chapter 13: Uselessness
"My dear friends," the dwarf suddenly smiled slyly, "please allow me to introduce the new invention of which I am proud—Particle G-Flawless U-Neat N-Hulling D-Automatic A-Machine M-336!"
The dwarf, who had been muttering a little bit from behind his back, pulled out a bundle of intricate gears, levers, and belts that were forcibly assembled around the inlet.
He cast a warm gaze at the Ranger, and it was the Human Ranger who advocated machine warfare and the Gundam Wording that gave him the most important part of the machine—a shiny, exaggerated name!
"Whenever you put the seed of any plant into it, it uses the centrifugal force caused by the high-speed rotation — well, I know there's no such thing as centrifugal force, for the sake of your understanding — and the seed hits the inner steel plate, causing the shell and kernel to peel off. As long as the structure, size and weight of the seeds are considered, and the impact angle is set appropriately, it can be automatically separated and thrown out, and it is not easy to crumble!"
The wise dwarf enjoyed a burst of amazement from everyone, and before the ranger could react to stop him, he quickly poured in the sunflower seeds and pressed start.
Thomas was horrified to realize one thing: the machine was not making a whistle and steaming?
That means......
Like a frightened cat, he pressed Minai on the shoulder, leaped with his strength, kicked the swan that was curiously resting on the machine, and pounced on the priest.
"Your way is a bit rough, my old bones can't stand it. The priest blinked and said, "I'm still wondering when you're going to attack Mina or Swan Girl......"
After a few overwhelmed groans, the threshing machine exploded with a loud bang, and parts shot out like darts.
Mina, who held up her body slightly, and the dwarf, who didn't have time to pick up her shield, ate the explosion head-on.
Grizzled Paladin: "............"
Mina's hair and face were dyed black, and there was a bloody streak on her face, clenching her little fists with a clenching sound. It seems that Thomas's fox friend and dog friend made an extremely deep impression on her not long after they first met
The swan flapped its wings and tried to stand up, and it took a while to understand the situation: "Oops!" Seeing Thomas bleeding from the back, she hurriedly staggered over, her wings gently caressing the wound.
With a "snap", fragments of machine parts were squeezed out by the tissue he had grown and fell to the floor.
"Actually, I'm fine, ordinary weapons can't penetrate my feathers. "She's a gentle soft girl, perfect for being caught as a little wife or maid - if you can see her in human form.
To Thomas's dismay, although he is now very skilled in camouflage and has magic that allows him to equip his whole body to mimic like a chameleon, it is a pity that he still can't fool the ears and eyes of the swan girl.
If you can have a higher ring of ranger spells, or if the goddess gives you a certificate of shooting stars, you can easily sneak in and steal the feather cloak.
"Still can't be careless, Barnard is very good at the art of explosions. The weapon he built was extremely high in the Baldur's Gate against the Baal Slayer incarnation!"—although it must have been in a state of extreme weakness at that time, and he probably didn't have the slightest divine power on his body, just an empty shell.
Following the gaze of the human ranger, the gnome smiled proudly and reservedly without reflection, and waved to everyone.
The gnomes are the race of Feren that is best at technology and machinery, and even the Imaskaki mechanics and the clockwork mages of the Far South are probably not comparable to them.
And this dwarf has always insisted that his technological power is better than that of his fellow Torell. It is said that one of his fellow gnomes in Klein once built a nuclear bomb and sold it to the Dragon Legion - fortunately, even the human fission bomb was destroyed by a "life-loving" dragoon, successfully preventing the destruction of life.
There must be no carelessness in this terrible race that can take out the machines and explosives at any time and send themselves, their friends or enemies to meet the Grim Reaper.
"Hahahaha......" Thomas scratched his head and let out a sneer, pulling the gnomes and dwarves and running out, "I always feel that the situation in the town is wrong, let's go and see!"
"So I need to put on my armor. The dwarf said.
"Okay, we'll be waiting for you outside the door. ”
Outside, the dwarf sighed rather lonely: "The people of Fallon are so ungodly about science. Why is no one vigorously developing gunpowder and explosives?"
“”
Ignoring his whining, Thomas looked around.
Although the wind and snow were still falling, the surroundings were still dazzling because of the reflections. Most of the surrounding buildings are small buildings with two or three floors, built along the hills, and one or all of them will be embedded into the terrain, and you can see that the roofs are also covered with snow.
Most of the buildings in Icewind Dale are small wooden buildings, so it is convenient for him to shoot Yin people through walls.
The Silver Lightning Arrow of the Supreme Forest Scout uses the essence of the elves and the fairy wilderness to send the arrows to the Atlas and back. And Thomas is an ancient magic given by the goddess.
The Holy Unicorn is a very detached and loose goddess, and rumor has it that most of the spells obtained by his priests are actually issued by the goddess of the forest. However, this rumor has nothing to do with Thomas, the Ranger, who is well aware that he is being treated specially.
"The most difficult to absorb the beauty Enna. The ranger looked up to the sky and sighed, sometimes he wondered if she hadn't traveled back and forth at various times to seek benefits for her unsuccessful self, maybe something would not have happened?
Because both of them fled without help, it took several minutes for the dwarves themselves to put on their armor. Together, the three of them head to the hotel to find the she-short boy who wants to get rid of them as bodyguards.
It is said that she is a relative of the current head of the Dwarven Valley, and has been in the Dwarven Valley, Ten Towns, Luskan, Waterdeep, Neverwinter, and Mithril Hall as an adult...... Circulating businesses all over the world.
When she arrives at the hotel where she lives, she pounces and is told that Helda Silverstream is going to another hotel to recruit more adventurers.
The mother dwarf is in a mage's room, hoping to be helped by her powerful magic.
"It's okay to go, but you have to find a guide? I have suffered a lot along the way, and it's best to have reconnaissance ability......" For some reason, the female mage seemed to dress up carefully, changed into a precious black silk robe, tied her hair in a bun, and held a paper fan in winter?
"Rest assured, I've found a Ranger with a unicorn goddess, and I'm sure he'll lead the way. ”
"Gee, if it's that person, I seem to know. Frankly, I don't really like him. ”
The mother dwarf looked embarrassed: "That's difficult, there are many people who are familiar with this road, but those who know how to resist the most ferocious cold and animals are ......"
"Forget it," the female mage waved her hand generously, "although I don't like him, but for the sake of you and the team, I will reluctantly accept it." ”
The Drow Assassin approached her softly and whispered a few words.
The female mage stood up excitedly: "it, it's already here, why didn't you say it earlier?"
Drow didn't understand her first two words, and even if he did, he wouldn't care. But the bard, who had been smiling beside him, shook his head and took a sip of wine.
This wine is not as good as the old dwarven brand, and it is quite bitter.
