Chapter 1297 Insurance
οΌοΌ
Considering that the jacquard machine can already run on its own without personnel supervision at this stage. So how could someone not consider the possibility of someone with a heart to wreak havoc, or those bear children raised at home to appear here?
So when the princess of Xindu stepped forward a few steps, she stepped over the range of the cordon. Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded in the workshop, and at the same time, there was a bright red flashing warning text light curtain, blocking between the people and the machine.
This sudden change frightened the princess of Xindu to take a few steps back, and Wang Chao and the others drew their swords and protected the princess in front of her.
The Earl of Guha of the Haider Empire is also protected by his attendants. The nobles who spared their lives, in this case, did not run away at the first time, and they were already worthy of the background of the earl's military.
Count Guha, who was forced to compose, was turned red and white by the flickering red light in the workshop. After confirming that his life was not in danger for the time being, he said in a questioning tone, "Your Excellency, Great Magician, this is not like some kind of hospitality. β
While turning off the alarm, Lin smiled and said, "Hehe, my lord." As far as I know, a comparable number of machines were also used in the Heider Empire, and the characteristics of these machines are certainly understandable. That is, as long as it has enough energy, it can run without sleep, which is more stable than manpower. I designed the machine to run autonomously and without the need for human intervention. Since there is no one to watch, it is possible not to guard against those who are planning to do wrong. So what you're seeing is just the sound of an alarm, not any threat. Unless someone keeps moving towards the machine's position despite the alarm, it will trigger the trap magic I have prepared. At that time, if you want to survive, you can only rely on your own ability. β
Count Guha cooperated with a wry smile and said, "Your Excellency, this is not like what you said is no threat. β
Lin spread his hands and said, "The person who has already issued a warning, but still insists on moving forward, in addition to being stupid, can only be someone who had this intention from the beginning." If a stupid person dies, he can cause less trouble to people; And those who deliberately die out, the world will be a lot quieter. So I don't think there's anything wrong with that. β
"Hah, that's true." Although the Count of Guha agreed with someone's statement, he held on to a glimmer of hope and asked, "Your Excellency, can I get a closer look at the machine?" β
Lin shook his head and said, "My lord, even if you stick your eyes to the machine, what you can see will be no different from what you can see when you stand here." If the machine isn't running, it's okay to get close. But now that the machine is running, I am not afraid of being destroyed, but there is no safe place next to the running machine. If you get involved in a moving gear or a moving robotic arm, even if you can save it, you will inevitably have wounds large and small. Therefore, I set this warning range, not only to prevent people who deliberately come to sabotage, but also for the safety of others. β
After receiving a refusal answer, Count Guha did not continue to insist. Because he can also see that the shell of the jacquard machine adopts a wrapping design. To put it simply, you can't see what the internal mechanics are. But with the dense jacquard boom running up and down, Count did not think that the construction of this machine would be simple.
And he or the entourage he brought with him is not a person who specializes in goblin machinery, and he may not be able to see the reason. So when he was politely refused, he gave up.
But Count Guha retreated, and the princess of Xindu, who was attracted at first, did not give up so easily. She pointed to the silk reeling machine and asked, "Your Excellency the Great Magician, what is that machine doing?" β
"Well, take the silk from the cocoon, and then twist a few strands of silk into a silk thread. Only when it becomes thread can it be made into fabric and then sewn clothes. It's obvious. β
Lin wondered if the person in front of him was a fake, otherwise how could he ask such a superficial question.
Princess Xindu said excitedly: "No, I'm not asking about that. It's over there, as if something has passed through in the process of reeling silk. There is a strong sense of oppression. I don't understand what it is. β
If you just say there or that, someone really can't understand what this princess is trying to say. She couldn't see what she saw with her eyes, and she knew what it meant. But if there is one more hint that brings a strong sense of oppression, then Lin will know what the princess does not understand.
After thinking about it, Lin felt that there was nothing to keep secret about this part, so he said, "That's enchanting the silk thread." This is also the biggest difference between the technology I have mastered and the country of Juanno. What I've made is magical equipment with magic attached to it and special effects, not normal silk. This is something that the Silk Country can't do. Of course, it is also possible that my level is too low to touch the silk that is the real core of the Silk Country, so there is such a misunderstanding. But the truth is, ordinary silk doesn't have much effect on a magician, so that's why I found a way to make magic silk to make a suitable robe. β
Lin Hui is so uncertain, also because the silk from the mysterious land that he bought in the past is the kind of inferior products that are more or less moth-eaten. If you want to sew clothes, you have to be careful to avoid those cavities, or you need to patch them.
This is because his level is not high enough to buy silk of really good quality. Most of the really good goods were covered by powerful nobles, and where there was a chance to wander to the Southwest Peninsula and let someone buy it.
However, it is true that the silk produced in the country of silk is very valuable, and it is true that there are many people who follow it, but it has not become the golden chicken mother that everyone covets. One of the reasons for Lin's conjecture was that silk could not be used to make magical equipment or props, and was just the plaything of nobles and wealthy merchants.
After all, it is not a world where there is only comparison with each other and no attention to other competitions. On the contrary, it is a cruel world, and you will face death at every turn.
Whether rich or poor, powerful or small, the attack from the demonic beast, the natural elimination, any one can easily take a life. In such an environment, what can save life is what everyone is looking for. Silk is very unfortunate and does not fall into this category.
This doomed silk to be a luxury for the powerful, providing them with a higher quality of life. Perhaps those successful magicians, warriors, and generals will wear silk clothes in their daily lives, but they will not necessarily pursue this kind of enjoyable life.
But if silk could be enchanted, the value would be completely different!
The hearts of the Earl of Guha and the people of the Silk Country suddenly warmed, and their eyes lit up. For the former, silk that can be enchanted means high-quality fabrics that are both comfortable and safe to wear. For the lives of the nobles, the degree of security has undoubtedly increased a lot. After all, it's not like people live in armor every day, that's too unrealistic.
And the same is true of several people in the Silk Country. Thanks to the secrecy of silk production methods and the protection of the Haider Empire, in addition to growing grain, the most important industries in the Silk Country are mulberry cultivation, silkworm breeding, weaving and embroidery. From top to bottom, the people of the Silk Country are bound to have a place in a certain link in the silk industry, and no one stays out of it.
If the value of silk can increase again, it also means that their importance will also increase. The increase in importance naturally comes with benefits. Then everyone's life will be even better than in the past.
It's just that the vision of the Silk Country is not high enough. I didn't think about whether they would be able to keep this interest when the value of silk was raised to a strategic level, that was a big question.
But for now, they're just trying to figure out the key to silk's enchantment.
But compared to the careful thinking of the men present, the thoughts of the princess of Xindu are relatively simple...... Maybe it's not so simple. I just wanted to rely on the advantages of gender and identity, pretending to be stupid and naΓ―ve, and asked directly: "If that is silk that can be enchanted, what about silkworm seeds?" What kind of silkworm species do you use? β
In the spirit of a sheep is a herding, a group of sheep is also a herding, and the jacquard machine has been exposed, Lin Zhenxin doesn't think it's a big deal to reveal the secret of silkworm seeds. What's more, the magic silk he weaves is not made by using a single silkworm species, but by the cross-use of dozens of varieties including magic insects and ordinary species of moths. Think about how many people are mad about the materials science of the earth.
So Lin Nian only turned his head and said, "I don't know what kind of silkworm species are selected for the silk of the Silk Country, but my method should be different from yours." If you want to see it, just follow me. It's okay to show you. β
After that, Lin took the lead and walked outside the work room, not caring if anyone wanted to stay. In fact, with the detectable strength of those present, no one in it could break through the protective trap he had set for the Jacquard machine.
Of course, it is not excluded that they have some kind of magic that presses the bottom of the box and can slap someone in the face. However, Lin dared to turn his head, that is, he was sure that he could deal with the aftermath.
The origin of self-confidence is that the power of the traditional magic of the Lost Land is directly proportional to the time it takes for Chant to perform it. The more powerful the magic, the more it drags on; To be able to cast a magic that is enough to destroy the protection of the Jacquard machine workshop is enough for Lin to turn the caster over and over again and play to death dozens of times.
Even if you use a magic scroll raid to use powerful magic, as long as it doesn't reach the point of instantaneousness, Lin is not afraid. And if they want to instantly perform this level of high-power magic, this group of people is not qualified. It's possible for the original lich around him, but it's impossible for Fen to dismantle his own platform.
The scene in the silkworm chamber is very different from when it was first built, and the interior space has been expanded several times.
Different species, carnivorous, omnivorous and herbivorous, containing eight kinds of magic insects and ordinary moths, there are always hundreds of adult moths and moth larvae, which are distinguished by a grid and kept in the silkworm room. Not all of them are moth species of the genus Silkworm Moth.
The most eye-catching target is, of course, the five basin-sized Golden Moth Kings. The Moth King clan occupies one-third of the space in the silkworm room, of which the adult moth occupies most of it, and the remaining part is the living space of the larvae. And each individual is also separated to avoid cannibalism. Speaking of the Zerg, I really don't shy away from this.
