Chapter 272: Step by step

Completely removed the left arm of the armor and removed the forearm part with the iron glove, Aldrich Triss, who knew the anatomy of the human body in great detail, used a sawn car spindle as the humerus, and the part attached to the shoulder was connected with a universal joint to ensure that the arm range of motion was large enough. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

The elbow junction is also treated in the same way, and the two ulnas of the forearm, because they are connected to the palm that can make complex movements, each knuckle is relatively independent, and the extension spring that acts as a muscle and the hydraulic transmission gear shaft are coordinated accordingly to make a simple movement of spreading the five fingers and holding the virtual grip.

Assembling all the components together, an unexpected challenge was presented. How to give instructions to the metal arm even if it is used normally.

Neural connections are too far ahead of our time. Aldrich Tris tried to no avail, so he turned to the Mage Tower for help.

After more than a month of collection, Taling Christine opened the mineral part of the Mage Tower's inventory materials, and added multiple arithmetic modules to her core components through a small smelting furnace, increasing the deduction ability by nearly doubling the limit.

"Master Tris, this metal arm lacks a power source, the rear part of the bearing capacity is obviously insufficient, the metal material belongs to ordinary steel, the harm of rust must be prevented in advance, it is recommended to cover it with an antirust agent coating, and ...... it in the preliminary preparation process."

"Christine, I'm asking for your help, not for you to pick on me. Strange! You're a little abnormal, haven't you gotten into the groove yet?"

The mage Tatarin immediately disguised his human side and responded according to the standard answer: "Master Tris, the clockwork gear can drive a gentleman's pocket watch, and the metal arm is so versatile, and so far I can't find a suitable power. We changed our thinking and regarded the metal arm as a unique construct, imparting shallow spirituality and wisdom with activation, and making it closely connected with humans with a spiritual contract, as a new form of pet companion. ”

"Construct body demon pet in the form of an arm!"

Aldrich Triss pondered for a while, feeling that this idea would be a bit extravagant after being put into practice, and it was impossible to immediately put it into the market and promote it on a large scale, but the birth of new things is always difficult to move forward and improve, and it is more important to collect relevant data when it is used in Bull Kent, so he nodded in agreement to Taling Christine's proposal.

"By the way, Christine, the air quality in Eastwood City is not good, I have an idea......"

After explaining the principle and application direction of the gas mask, the mage Tataring immediately drew inferences from the other and designed relevant utensils for different groups of people.

The large-scale promotion of a new thing, carried out in the social circles of the noble and respected aristocracy, was more effective than the vigorous advertising of newspapers, due to the effect of following the trend.

Based on the masquerade balls that became popular among the aristocracy of the Western region, Taling Christine designed a brightly colored bird's beak mask, with activated charcoal at the front and spices such as mint, camphor, cloves, and ginger at the back, which not only insulated the polluted air, but also kept the air fresh enough.

"The long, pointed beak gives the impression of being aggressive, and the front part is slightly curved to maintain a smooth arc, which can be pleasing to the eye...... Hook mouth, what do you think? ”

Without any reason to object, Taling immediately opened his mouth to praise, and by the way, it included Master Tris's improvement plan, and every bit of wisdom was accumulated in ordinary daily life, gathered into a trickle, and finally injected into the ocean of knowledge.

"There's also the material puzzle, which might be called alloy formulation. Christine, do you have any metal in your memory bank that doesn't rust?"

Taling opens the search engine self-check, and soon finds several rare materials, such as the epic Thunder Bar, which is specially designed to create artifacts, Oruha Steel, which is used for soul transitions, and Sin Mercury, which carries all negative emotions and makes high evil weapons.

Legendary levels include Shadow Steel, which makes giant steel golems, which is only produced in the depths of the Shadow Realm, oraldron, which is full of fire elements, which comes from the cracks of the elemental plane, and occasionally appears in small quantities when volcanic eruptions, and Bloodstone, which is forged with flesh, life, and soul, and has the dual properties of spirit and matter, and is a universal amplifier of alchemy.

"Christine, are you kidding me? Even in the old days when there were many gods, all of the above materials were rare and rare things, not to mention the decadent current spellcasting system, and even though the elemental tide spread throughout the West continent, it was only barely balanced. ”

"Master Tris, with your current ability, there is absolutely no problem in entering the dark side of the world. However, according to relevant records, there are many floating cities that have been transferred to the shadow realm in advance before the turbulent year, and the ebb of the elemental tide must have had a considerable impact on them, so don't worry too much about it, and beware of shadow creatures after entering. ”

Aldrich Tris suddenly understood the reason why Taling was so human, he was promoted and transformed in the secret realm of the forest, and after returning to the real world, according to the contract of the inheritor of the mage tower, Christine was also increased accordingly, and was endowed with more emotional factors, or more complex human nature.

Based on his instincts, he deduced that the age of the mage Tataring was approaching the adolescent and rebellious period of a human child, and that he had a continuous dependence on himself, and that his personality had correspondingly begun to become eccentric.

After the elemental tide was lifted, the entrance to the once closed shadow realm seemed to loosen slightly, but only a gap was exposed. It's like a shadow everywhere, but it's a pity that it always feels like it's inaccessible through an invisible barrier, let alone open and enter it.

"In the Shadow Realm, I still don't have the key to open the door properly, but sooner or later I'll be able to go in and swim...... Shadow Steel's affairs are put aside for the time being. Christine, my request is just a metal arm that does not rust, lower my posture a little, and I believe it can surprise me from the perspective of applicability and popularity. ”

Mage Tataring's "test" was immediately suspended, and she entered a normal working state, and the corrosion-resistant alloy formula was not absent from the database, and it could be refined in a small smelting furnace.

"Leave everything to me, honorable Master Tris. ”

Aldrich Triss knew that Christine was back to normal, and he encouraged a few words of encouragement to block out the heart, and looked at the failed work in front of him.

Dozens of words derived from structure, mechanization, and power source constantly collide with each other, but they always fail to find an overlap that fits each other.

He didn't have a clue when he thought about it, and he felt that it would be better to hand over this challenging job to the engineers at Rodin College, or to face the society directly.

The industrial revolution, which was powered by the steam engine and characterized by large-scale machine production, was not only a leapfrog innovation at the technical level, but also had a far-reaching impact on the economic, political, military, and ideological fields.

The collision of ideas, the emergence of scientific and technological inventions and creations, and the spread of knowledge faster than ever was possible, although education remained in the hands of the aristocracy.

The long-term businessman has built his own school within the family to train relevant talents, teaching basic reading and writing, simple addition and subtraction arithmetic, and counting symbols. Those who are a little more professional obtain formal licenses and open small-scale schools, so that the members of their own family and branches can be nurtured from an early age.

The advent of newspapers is the best example, and the growing audience of literacy means that the basic knowledge began to spread from the upper aristocracy to the middle bourgeoisie, and even some of the lower elite.

The observers of Eastwood City were at first skeptical of Aldrich Tris's actions, and their scrutinizing eyes looked at it repeatedly, as if they wanted to read between the lines the intentions and true purpose of His Excellency the Baron.

However, when the rich reward was won by a veteran craftsman of a watch shop, many people began to envy him, jealous that this man's luck could be appreciated by the chief knight of the Western Soil.

It wasn't long before Aldrich Triss, after gaining the Archduke's understanding, began recruiting disabled veterans of the Battle of the North Sea and fitting them with "steel prosthetics".

There are small crossbow arrows for long-range attacks, and telescopic blades for melee combat, which not only make them return to the posture of normal people, but also indirectly multiply their combat power.

It was a good government for all, and one that could easily be overlooked, but Aldrich Triss found them shining brightly, not only cementing their friendship with the military, but also giving themselves a high reward and establishing an image of decency that valued invention and creativity.

As a logical next step, the Triss family received official permission to establish their own private school, albeit only in engineering.

Once the levee is torn open, it is difficult to close it again. Aldrich Triss is running a bigger and bigger business, and instead of spending a lot of money to dig into the corners of others, it is better to cultivate it yourself, not only with high loyalty, but more importantly, with trust.

The masquerade balls held by the aristocracy in private, the artistic bird's beak "gas mask", which was at first only recognized in the steam salons that were keen on new things, were recognized on a small scale, and as the air pollution in Eastwood gradually worsened, it became officially popular in aristocratic circles.

Attached to Aldrich Triss, the secret organization of the Ten Thousand Dead composed of minor nobles became the biggest promoter, and they made a fuss about the form and decoration of the "gas mask", and gradually won the approval of the big people.

However, there are also some extreme members among them, in order to cater to the purpose of the Ten Thousand Dead Society's "all things come to the end", deliberately equipped with leather robes that cover from head to toe, black round-brimmed high hats, canes made of sticks, and cowhide gloves, wrapping themselves tightly and impermeable, and people who don't know the details still think that they are death messengers from the underworld.

All the nobles who were popular would inevitably be imitated, and the first to bear the brunt were the merchants, who had many ways to know that the effect of the gas mask was very wonderful, but they did not dare to use their brains on the bird's beak mask, and directly imitated it, so they created a thousand strange daily masks according to their own ideas.

Aldrich Triss was traveling in a horse-drawn carriage one day, and through the bright glass windows, he saw passers-by walking on both sides of the road, wearing various gas masks, and could no longer hear hoarse coughs, covering his mouth and nose and struggling to breathe pedestrians, and couldn't help but smile.

With a bitter winter and almost stagnant air, the residents of the new industrial city are gradually adapting to the increasingly harsh environment.
