"Lord Chado, as you know, all orders for the Demon Slayer Amulet were obtained by me from Prince Pasteur of Danzo, and not long ago, Prince Pasteur learned that the Demon Slaying Amulets I used to deliver the order were from the Tower of Time, from Lord Chado, and made a request to me-"

Speaking of this, Charles Harlan deliberately paused and glanced tentatively at Xia Duo, who did not overreact to this, but just lightly urged:

"What request? What does it have to do with me? ”

Charles Harlan was agitated and continued: "Prince Pasteur hopes to obtain the key to the rapid production of the Demon Slayer Talisman from Lord Chado through me!" ”

"The key to the rapid production of the Demon Slayer Amulet? Is the situation so bad underground? ”

Xia Duo was stunned for a moment, he had just heard from Iolem not long ago that the situation underground had stabilized after the opening of the second battlefield of Amarinda, and the two sides were engaged in a tug-of-war and a war of attrition.

If Iorham doesn't lie to him on this kind of issue, then it can only be exaggerated on Lord Harlan's side.

However, it is not strictly an exaggeration to say that Lord Harran represents the interests of Prince Pasteur to a certain extent, and Prince Pasteur undoubtedly prefers to end the war sooner than humans.

Anything that could have a positive effect on the turning of the balance of war, Prince Pasteur would probably be very interested in it, and try to obtain it.

"The underground situation is not very good, Drow's offensive is very fierce, and the demand for demon slaying talismans by underground warriors is increasing day by day, if you can quickly obtain a large number of demon slaying talismans, it may be able to play a decisive role in the battle situation!"

Charles Harlan said, but Xia Duo shook his head secretly, if the war was decided by only one weapon and equipment, maybe the Mither Nucleus might be, but it would definitely not be the Demon Slayer Talisman.

亡国灭族的仇恨激发下，就算没有屠魔护符，矮人也可能爆发出不逊色于屠魔护符本身的强大意志抗性。

This kind of thing can only be used as an icing on the cake, or even a blessing in disguise, but it will definitely not be the only decisive factor.

Maybe the dwarves still have the artifact hidden at the bottom of the box, but they didn't use it because the cost of use was too high, and no one can say at the last moment if this kind of thing doesn't happen at the last moment.

Of course, the real reason why Shado was resistant to what Lord Harran said was not because of this, but because—

Once the dwarves are told about mass production, or even standardized mass production, under the pressure of war, they may be able to quickly industrialize magic with the dwarves, who are not lagging behind Nesser.

It's not that the dwarves don't have mages, it's just that their magic systems are different from those of Nessreel and elves, or that the Hammer Warriors are actually their mages.

And once the dwarves quickly industrialize magic, perhaps they will be able to show an overwhelming advantage in the war against the drow, will the elven nations be indifferent in the process?

Even if it is not fully transformed, at least a few pilot cities will be built.

But in this way, it is almost a disaster for Nessera who wants to develop, and many times it does not mean that standing on the same starting line will definitely win.

Not to mention, Nessera is still far from standing on the same page as the Elven Kingdoms.

At present, Netherel has been able to maintain the national strength of a great country in the Northlands, largely because of the more than a dozen people on the surface, as well as the countless great arcanists hidden in the secret of the Seven Towers, who support the national strength of the great country with their individual strength.

Once magic is industrialized, in the foreseeable future, individual power will be quickly wiped out by weaponry, and the national power of a large country will no longer be determined by how many individual powerhouses such as grand arcanists or high mages a country has, but how many oversized weapons it masters.

Chado did not think that the current Nessera was ready to fully enter the industrial age, and even compete with other industrial countries, and once the industrial revolution started at the wrong time, perhaps the outcome would be much worse than the one Chado knew.

Whether standardized mass production is the key to the industrial revolution, it is difficult for Xia Duo to say for sure, but he certainly will not bet on how low the probability is that it must not be.

In fact, he himself believes that standardized mass production plays a greater role in promoting the industrialization process than the improvement of productivity itself.

Productivity is indeed the foundation, but it is a qualitative change that is not easy to happen; However, standardized mass production is a relatively easy process to achieve, which belongs to the category of liberating productive forces.

And with a unified industrial standard, qualitative changes in productivity will be more likely to occur.

For example, now, it is estimated that it is no fun to let the dwarves hold back their ultimate, and directly kill all the drows in seconds, but it is certainly not difficult to let them change the mode of production, liberate the productive forces, and produce a large number of war materials.

After being able to improve the combat effectiveness in a short period of time, it is not necessary to think about whether it will continue to integrate production, and even research and innovation.

Therefore, even if it is only a slight possibility, Xia Duo will not transfer the concept of standardized mass production to the dwarves, at least not yet.

However, it is not appropriate to directly refuse Lord Harlan like this, after all, the other party now represents Prince Pasteur, and to a certain extent, it represents the Kingdom of Danzo.

As an individual, it is obviously not a wise move for Xia Duo to directly confront a country.

"Lord Harran, the Tower of Time does produce Demon Slaying Talismans faster than other Mage Tower organizations, but that's completely because the Tower of Time has full-time production personnel for the production of Demon Slaying Amulets, and all production personnel dedicate all their personal time to those orders, if other Mage Towers can do this, it is not difficult to obtain the same or even better efficiency as the Tower of Time."

To a certain extent, Xia Duo is not lying, he is indeed equipped with a full-time magic technician for the Demon Slaying Talisman production line.

"The Great Luo of the Worlds"

And when it comes to private time, it depends on how it is defined.

The Magic Mechanic in the Tower of Time can also be considered full-time students, part-time mechanics, just doing odd jobs in their spare time to earn some living expenses, nothing more.

As for the production efficiency of other mage tower organizations, if there really is a mage tower that can recruit a large number of full-time alchemists, maybe it can really do it.

It's just that the cost is much more expensive than the Tower of Time.

At this stage, Xia Duo only uses the relatively backward manual production line in order to let more people have a stable job, so as not to cause them to have nothing to do.

If it is replaced by a fully automatic assembly line, the efficiency will take off in situ.

It's just that there's no need to talk about this to outsiders like Lord Harlan.
