Chapter 287: Woo~~
Black Rock City is not big, at least until the current expansion project is completed, the name of Black Rock City comes more from her towering walls, so Nina only stayed in the city for three days and began to get bored, and Lu Ya except for the first day after meeting her, the next period of time has been the beginning of the dragon, although she understands that Lu Ya is the lord of a city, and is such a mysterious Black Rock City Lord, it is normal to have her own secrets, she will not ask more. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoBut she originally came to see Ruya, and she disappeared from his mansion for a few days, which not only made her start to wonder, did Ruya deliberately avoid her?
It wasn't until one morning that Ruya came home with bloodshot eyes and dirty clothes, took a shower, changed her outfit, and left again that Nina knew that Ruya was indeed busy with something she didn't know.
However, seeing Lu Ya make herself so embarrassed and sloppy for work, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, and always wanted to share something for Lu Ya, but she didn't dare to say it for various reasons, plus Lu Ya was gone for a few days, so she felt even more bored.
In the past few days, the wind and snow outside have weakened a lot, and Nina, who was originally bored in the City Lord's Mansion, vaguely heard the faint sound of clanging, anyway, it was okay to be idle, so Nina called two followers to look for the source of the sound.
Following the sound all the way to search, Nina came to the outside of Black Rock City, after traveling a distance, crossing the winding river and the research institute that had not allowed her to enter, the two parallel together, with a distance of less than two meters in the middle, came into view, Nina, who had never seen the rails, came to the rails with a curious look and stretched out her finger to poke the I-shaped solid rails, and the curious look on her face was gradually replaced by a trace of shock.
As the president of the Boulder Chamber of Commerce, Nina, who was originally in the weapons business, has no worse understanding of steel than those forgers in the orc realm, and the high productivity and high quality represented by the railroad track that disappeared in the wind and snow in the distance in front of her all showed her the great achievements of the Blackstone tribe in steel smelting。
Ignoring the cold and biting chill coming from the rails, Nina carefully observed the rails in front of her, put her fingers in front of her eyes and looked at them, a very light layer of red rust appeared on her fingertips, from which it can be seen that these two parallel rails should have just been laid for a long time.
Retracting her jade hand into her sleeve, Nina walked forward along the rails, her feet on the sleepers sunk deep in the pile of stones, even the rails, which were basically not high-tech, still brought a strong shock to Nina. The reason is that the track is too long.
In Nina's eyes, each step was a few high-quality iron weapons, but she walked forward for more than ten minutes, and there was still no end in sight to this parallel track.
"What the hell is this?"
"What the hell is it for?"
"Why waste all this precious steel in the wild?"
"How many secrets does Ruya still have that no one knows?"
Along the way, Nina suddenly felt that she knew so little about the Black Stone Tribe, about Black Rock City, and about Ruya! Before, she naively thought that with the power in her hands and the news she obtained, she already knew very well about Lu Ya, a mysterious existence in the eyes of others, but now she knew that she was wrong, she was so wrong.
During the period of time she has lived in Black Rock City, not to mention the areas that she can't set foot in, the strong and tall walls of Black Rock City, the well-organized urban order, the happy and humble ordinary people, Well-trained and reliable army・・・・・・ etc., etc., is too subversive of her already solid worldview, sometimes she thinks, if all orcs can develop like Black Rock City, what kind of scene it will be, but after a little thought about it, I feel that this idea is really ridiculous, not to mention other external forces that are eyeing each other, just in Boulder City, if it weren't for her brother's best efforts to maneuver around the family, I'm afraid that Black Rock City would have changed hands and changed its name long ago. Of course, she wouldn't tell Ruya that a big reason why his brother was defending Blackstone City so much was because she was on the sidelines.
Shaking his head and shaking off his chaotic thoughts, he walked along the railroad tracks for another ten minutes, and the jingling sound was getting closer and closer, accompanied by a faint cacophony of human voices and trumpets in the middle.
Although Nina is a woman, her physique is by no means as delicate as those human aristocratic ladies, she has walked down for nearly half an hour, not to mention more than two kilometers, such a long distance is all paved with that kind of fine iron rails, what is the reason why it is worth such a waste of Black Rock City to complete it, Nina thought, her heart was hot, and she accelerated her pace again.
"Work harder, I'm not hungry for you in normal times, you still dare to be lazy here" A soldier followed behind the two Rock Lux slaves, and the three of them carried a railway track more than ten meters long and marched forward, and there were several such teams next to them, which were coming in groups from the direction of the steel mill.
The track that Nina walked on was not a single line, and there was a branch line not far from the beginning of the river, but at that time the branch line was connected to the steel plant, so Nina did not go there to find out.
"Miss Nina, why are you here" Berry came from not far away, the commander of the armed forces of Black Rock City was wearing a thin coat at this time, and his body was dirty and steaming.
"I'm bored in the city, just go out and walk out of the way," Nina whispered, gesturing to the rails and the busy workers.
"It's out of the way, it's okay, Miss Nina, I'll miss out on work first, you can do it yourself"
"Yes, thank you"
He didn't stop long, his eyebrows and beard had already formed a layer of ice from sweating in the moment, and he wanted to move.
Nina continued to walk forward, she finally saw the end of the railway that was constantly lengthening, only to see workers emerging from the snow and mist, their division of labor was clear, their movements were simple, like stones, sleepers, rails, buckles, and warping, busy but not chaotic and orderly, these orc men were mostly slaves captured by Black Rock City, and they who signed a slave contract were not terminated for a day, and they were not free for a day, but compared to the treatment of prisoners by other tribes, the Blackstone tribe was definitely benevolent, at least the two goals that many orcs fought for all their lives, they have achieved, Therefore, although they are slaves, they have a strong sense of belonging to Blackstone City, and after Xiao Qi and Lu Ya sorted out, the slave team of the Blackstone tribe has a very complete reward and punishment mechanism, and those who work hard and complete the task well have the opportunity to regain their freedom, and there are many examples of this, so it can be said that the slave team of the Blackstone tribe is the slave who is the least like a slave among all the slaves・・・・・
With the rapid work of these slave armies, two ten-meter-long parallel rails could be laid in just over ten minutes, and this was still necessary to count the time taken by the researchers on the side to accurately measure it, otherwise the time would be shortened.
Nina's head became even more dizzy as she watched the steady stream of rails and materials arrive, what was this huge investment for! Just when she was too anxious to rush directly into the mysterious research institute, a loud whine that she swore she had never heard before came from a distance.
The whining sound rang out for a few seconds, and then it disappeared, and many people looked at the place where the sound had come from, and soon a three-jumper came speeding up. Nina noticed a soldier who looked like a herald getting out of the car, and he quickly found Berry who was carrying the rails, and he didn't know what to say beside him, and then Brown immediately put down what he was doing and ordered everyone to stop what they were doing and leave the range of the tracks.
Nina, who was wondering, was soon persuaded to leave the railway by Bai Lifu, who came in person, and Nina asked why this was the case, but Bai Lifu just smiled faintly and replied, "You will see it in a while"
"Hmph~ It's so mysterious, it won't be a monster coming," Nina pouted and looked unhappy.
With some sort of gibble in her mouth, Nina walked back, the strange sound coming from the direction of the steelworks, and she kept kicking the rubble under her feet as she went.
"Bang"
"Ouch" Nina kicked a frozen stone on the ground, so painful that she bent over and rubbed it a few times, and suddenly a strange 'rumble' sound came from far and near, when Nina squatted on the ground and raised her head, her small mouth suddenly opened into a big 'o' shape ~~
"Woo~~~" The huge sound came along with the sky-high mist, and then the sound of "clang, clang, clang・・・・・・" gradually became clear, and the ground under the frame seemed to be shaking slightly, and a swarthy steel monster finally broke through the snow and fog like a giant beast and drove quickly・・・・・・・・・・
