Chapter 321: The Rise of the Black Stone
Once again, Armitage has come to the Blackstone Plateau, and as the most successful merchant of the Chaos Dwarves in foreign sales, and as a person with a special mission, he has been here at least three times a year.
It can be said that Armitage is a witness to the growth of Golmus Greenskin, 7 years is not a long time for the Chaos Dwarf, but here in Greenskin, it feels as if he has experienced seven hundred years.
Seven years ago, these greenskins had no external supply and had to fight with stone and wood, but now they ......
Armitage looked to the southwest, where the famous fanged mountains used to be clearly visible from standing, but now, they were shrouded in a large amount of black smoke.
Greenskins had built a large number of smelting furnaces and forges there, and the clouds of smoke that covered the peaks were caused by those facilities, where there were already enough chimneys to form forests.
The greenskins found a large mine on the Zåm volcano over there, and a coal field in the lonely mountain, about a hundred kilometers northwest of the Gomus Mountains.
Compared to these two resources, what is most depressing for Amitag, and indeed all the Chaos Dwarves, is the explosive population of the Greenskins.
Since the launch of the series of competitive events, the population of the green skins has begun to rise in a straight line, and when it has completed the unification of the green skins in the Gomus Mountains by virtue of its fame alone, the population growth has reached its first peak.
Yes, just the first one, the numbers have made the hearts of the Chaos Dwarves pop and pop, but it's still not the upper limit.
The reason is that the arena + unification has greatly reduced the internal friction of the green skin, but at that time, the productivity has not been improved, and all aspects are still very primitive.
The average life expectancy of a green skin used to be less than 5 years!
And now, conservatively estimated, they all have several times the lifespan, and just counting the number of mature green spores that can split in the extra time is enough to make people stunned.
The Chaos Dwarves have finally seen what the fertility of the greenskin is, in 7 years, from more than one million to more than 5 million now, and it is still accelerating, it is estimated that by this time next year, it will increase by nearly 2 million!
This is simply a disaster-level birth.
No way, who let the production technology of the greenskins come up!
It has to be said that Kane finally used a series of means to bring the greenskin to the farming track he is familiar with.
To depict a great blueprint, or to paint cakes to fool the green skin with a simple and honest side.
With its own continuous high-profile exposure, to ensure and authority and the right to speak.
With the Colosseum series, to release the fundamental need of the greenskins to be uncomfortable without fighting.
To research and development, do coolies, to consume the vigorous energy of the green skins.
With the population swelling, the pressure to survive, and the killing under control, the Greenskins can only turn their swarm power to other things, such as farming.
And a large number of farming operations have also induced the 'light of the kids' of the greenskins. The boys who relied on the wit to solve the problem began to appear, and after a long time, the manufacturing boy, the engineering boy, this kind of brain-using green skin was born.
And as long as it is born, just like playing a game to climb technology, the restriction of a certain class is lifted, and it will always appear in an endless stream after that.
By the beginning of the 6th year, the first orc inventor appeared. Until then, invention had been a monopoly of Gobble. However, Kane knew that it was the orcs who could really bring out the power of the 'I Think......, because the orcs were more superior in terms of breed, and they were the high-level greenskins that would only appear in the case of environmental matters, and the wisdom greenskins based on them were also the highest.
The orc technician was born, and the next thing was the technical master, the great technical master. The big technocrats can't be counted on in the short term, but when the technocrats come out, the green-skinned technology will enter the age of firearms at a terrifying speed, after all, their so-called invention essence should be said to be discovery, a process of self-mining genetic information. This is the same routine as the Warlock's awakening skill from the bloodline.
Before the birth of the Jiba, Kane played a leading and integrating role in the leadership and integration of the Jiba through the remote control of the brain plug and the fake technician.
He can't get too deeply involved, otherwise he will lead the way, and if the green-skinned technology is not green-skinned, and becomes a poor imitator of the technology system he masters, then it will be a huge loss for him. He doesn't want the Greenskins to use their whimsical abilities for punk, and he wants his team to take Greenskins' ideas and create some interesting projects.
In fact, this can be regarded as a kind of reflection and attempt to solve the shortcomings of his own system.
High control brings high constraints, high constraints bring order habits, order habits bring rigidity of thought, and rigidity of thought affects creativity.
A group that shouts every day that beauty comes from creation, but it is the most lacking in creativity, and I have to say that things in the world are sometimes so ironic.
Even Kane himself admitted that he and his subordinates were actually stereotyped imitators with serious craftsmanship, which had already appeared when he played with the doctrine in his previous life, and when he emphasized rules, order, reason, and emotion, he was completely stereotyped.
He and his team have been able to perfect the technology they have acquired, continuously enhancing efficiency, simplifying processes, and refining technology, but they are really lackluster in terms of creativity and cannot provide the soil (social atmosphere) for the birth of creators.
It is precisely because of this that Kane not only pays attention to the impact of technological output, but also pays attention to the social atmosphere of the greenskins, and does not make the greenskins become a simplified version of the iron-blooded swarm, but let them maintain their own style as much as possible, which can be seen from the various greenskins with a very serious punk style.
In comparison, Kane's incarnation in the dark sin world of guilty souls does not have such a line of thinking. It can also be said that he did not have the environmental soil that gave birth to this line of thought.
In the world of dark sin spirits, Kane's incarnation is in a state of unfavorable environment, monstrous enemies, and struggling to survive, so he is almost a concrete display of his own inherent technology, and even the side of Merrick City was unconsciously straightened by him, steam is still steam, but the punk flavor is getting weaker and weaker.
The Chaos Dwarf Amitage observes with his eyes and remembers with his heart, and firmly records a large amount of information about the blackstone green skin.
For him, the work has become more and more onerous. Even if he is a warlock, there are many places where he can use magic to help.
Mainly because he had to write a report afterwards, and now, there are really too many things worth writing, and the last time he went back, it took him more than half a month just to write a report.
"Ha, Black Silk, it's you again, I already remember your face, isn't it amazing?" an orc swayed from side to side and greeted Armitag.
Most orcs walk in this way, with a rather ugly posture and swaying from side to side, but they are not actually lame.
"Broken Tooth Boss, your medallion is still shiny!"
The orc, whose fangs had been broken, immediately grinned when he heard this, and his eyebrows fluttered for the Nth time telling how it had won this medal.
Greenskins lack long-term memory, many people say that they are stupid and have poor memory, but what happened to Broken Tooth and some other orcs made Amitage know that it was not that Greenskins had a poor memory, but that they were good at selective forgetting.
If you really have a poor memory, how can the green skin in front of you remember every detail of this medal clearly? You must know that it was more than 30 gladiatorial matches.
However, Armitage didn't care about the feats of Broken Tooth or its medallion, which was far from exquisite, but about the armor on Broken Tooth.
He clearly remembered that the last time he came, the broken tooth was still wearing the kind of non-homogeneous, relatively brittle, gray iron sheets, although now it still looks gray and black, but some scratches on it and the shiny of the places where it is often touched and rubbed all show that this is already a steel material, even if it is rough, it is steel.
Moreover, he could also see that the armor had improved significantly in terms of craftsmanship. In a word, it has become more compact and fitting.
"How many small leaders like Broken Fang are there in the Blackstone Clan now?" Armitag asked himself.
He knew that the big competitive event that Rolling Ba had created had never stopped since the day it was born, and a champion warrior could be born almost every month.
And the broken teeth, not to mention the gold crown, did not even get the bronze crown, but entered the top 16.
According to the rules, after entering the top 32, even if you still want to get honors, you will participate in another series of events, and you will not get medals, but other rewards, such as armor and weapons.
The big competition has been held for more than six years, and there are nearly a thousand green-skinned orcs like Broken Teeth.
This is a samurai who came out of the millions of greenskins by virtue of martial bravery, which is rarer than one out of ten thousand, and the combat power composed of these guys is far from being comparable to the green-skinned elite - the big warbands of the past.
Armitage couldn't imagine what kind of military force such a warrior would need to stop such a warrior with a sharp knife battle group formed after being fully armed.
After tugging at the chattering broken tooth for a long time, Amitage beckoned to the slave and pushed the gift he had brought to Rollba, heading towards the Blackstone Plateau.
Greenskins have all sorts of vices, including eating and taking cards, but just saying that these are gifts for Rollba will not be hindered in any way, and no Greenskins will reach out and ask for them.
The greenskins are in awe of the rollovers.
This question has been raised more than once in the report by Armitage, but it has not yet attracted the attention of the city lords, blacksmiths, and prophets. (The Infernal Lord, the Demon Blacksmith, and the Warlock Prophet, but that's an outsider's name for the Chaos Dwarves and other types of rulers, not themselves.) )
As soon as he talked about this, Armitage hated his predecessor a little, his predecessor was good at selling words, and the reports he wrote were more like telling stories, all kinds of exaggerations, and not rigorous at all. In his report, he disparaged the greenskin's magic as useless.
However, Armitage saw that it was precisely because the greenskins had magic techniques such as projection that they were able to watch the big tournaments widely, and then the prestige of the Rolling Masters was widely spread. Many simple-minded greenskins have associated it with God.
It's actually a very scary thing.
The Greenskins already have a deformed passion for killing, and with a fanatical following mentality, they are truly a call to arms, one after the other, destroying everything.
Armitage deeply felt that Rolling Ba had reached a certain critical point, and if he continued like this, he might become the third god of the greenskins, a god who wandered the mortal world.
If that were the case, I am afraid it would be a disaster for all living beings in this world.
You know, the green skins are not only in the Gomus Mountains, but also in the Ridge of the World Mountains, and the Sorrow Mountains are also there, and the gods are far beyond the prestige of the War Lord, and it is likely that these green skins will come together, and with a population of more than 10 million, it is also super crazy to multiply, and then they are all armed, and Armitage really can't think of what kind of power can stop the destruction of the greenskins.
Armitage walked all the way to see, and under the cliffs of the Black Rock Plateau, he took a large lift.
This is a remarkable engineering miracle, because it rose more than 1,000 meters from the ground, and it took the Greenskins two years to complete this miracle, and now, it has three more in one go, and it is significantly stronger and more powerful.
At the top of the lift, he saw piles of pedal wheel boys, a new kind of green-skinned coolies, they sat in rows on hard seats, holding horizontal bars, and then pedaling the pedals, the rotation of chains and gears, through a series of force conduction, and finally turned into majestic mechanical force, so as to complete the lifting of the counterweight of the lift.
Of course, the transformation and concentrated use of this force is not only used in lifts, but also in many other fields. This technique was invented by Goble, but now the Greenskin Technician Kid uses it even better.
Armitage had even seen similar pedal wheels, driving the carts of minecarts and running on steel tracks, transporting a steady stream of coal from Gushan to the large refinery near the Zom Volcano, and also transporting supplies back to Gushan in batches to support coal mining there.
Now, even the Chaos Dwarves are emulating this technique.
The Flame Empire of Zar Nagrond, where the Chaos Dwarves drove slaves and laid a large number of railroad roads to connect cities to fortresses.
I have to say that rail transportation is really a good thing, and it is very helpful for the Chaos Dwarves who are short of labor.
And this whole set of related techniques was stolen back by him Amiguel, for which he was also received by the High Lord and blessed by the Dark Father.
But the thought of the great Chaos Dwarf going out to steal technology from the stupid Greenskins made him feel very uncomfortable, and not just uncomfortable......
