Chapter 42 Joint Enterprises

Even if it is a weapon, aesthetics and technology should need to be compatible.

A certain Archmage of the Law of Cause and Effect of the Humanoid Form, who can also be dominant in the Otherworld, once said, "Bad equipment will definitely not have good combat performance, and this is true of any equipment."

Although weapon aesthetics are rooted in the combat environment and combat purpose, and everything is based on reliable use, weapons that do not conform to the user's habits at a glance and are awkward to use will certainly not be easy to use.

Seeing the S-version of the golem that had fallen to the ground and had not yet disintegrated, full of dwarven urgency aesthetics, Vincent had long been eager to make something new to enjoy.

La Niña had told him that the driving force of the golem was magic, and that its appearance would not be affected by the magic core, and that it should be possible to have a variety of design possibilities.

For example, the experimental golems in Genting City are all made in the form of legendary heroes, and the Church of Light and Order may also be developing golems in the appearance of gods.

As for the demons, there is no relevant technology, no development ability, and now is the opportunity to fill a major technological gap.

Now that he has a scholar magician from the High Academy of Magic, as well as an engineering technician who has inherited the skills of the dwarves, it seems that it is not impossible to really do a big job.

At present, the biggest restriction on himself is the sad steel production in the territory.

Although the town could not build a steel mill, they found iron ore and coal mines, as well as simple but sufficient smelting, casting, forging and processing technology, and were already one of the few industrial bases in the territory.

If the area is developed on a larger scale over time, and the earth blast furnace is not considered to be environmentally friendly, it is not impossible to increase steel production.

In this era, even the level of steel production in the Great Kingdom is difficult to describe, and according to the information provided by Kiraya, it is estimated that a large country as large as the Kingdom of Herod can have several thousand tons of steel a year.

Vincennes' territory was only a small territory less than one-twentieth of that of Herodes, but in order to face the threat of the Herodians, it was absolutely imperative to pull steel production to the level of a large country when the number of troops and magic was absolutely inferior and foreign aid could not be fully relied upon.

Poor demons, there are not enough steel, guns, and germs now, not to mention weapons and production equipment, and even enough to make toys......

"This is a good place, rich in minerals, and coal, with a certain development base, although the location is remote, but it is difficult to be threatened by the enemy," Vincent looked up from the mountain road, his eyes were full of fascination, "to upgrade this place into a steel joint production base in the territory, so that the people in the mountains will no longer be trapped by poverty, and the people outside the mountains can enjoy the dividends of industrial development."

"What is Steel United...... Production base?" Jana struggled to say the awkward word, a little curious, "Isn't it good enough to produce iron and weapons here?"

"In addition, in order to ensure the supply of raw materials, crushing, beneficiation, coking, sintering and refractory manufacturing must also be arranged, as for the supply of water, magic supply, maintenance and equipment processing, as well as various facilities for people to live and work, the current town cannot be satisfied, and there are ......

Listening to Vincent's introduction after a few days of deep thought, Jana felt even more confused about this strange demon lord - although she couldn't understand those things, it sounded very powerful.

If the lord was incompetent, a smart man like the archmage La Niña would never have followed so convincingly.

Although this territory is not as vast as the Skava grassland, Cana sees an indescribably vast future that is slowly emerging before her eyes.

Maybe the grassland is good, but the way of life that has remained unchanged for thousands of years really can't attract the red whirlwind.

Many of the mountain people who have lived here for generations have witnessed the lord's procession, which will become a memory that they will relish.

The last time it was to bring peace by force, this time it was to bring abundance, and there has never been such a contingent in the Whistling Mountains.

At the end of the road, in the clearing in front of the town,

The beautiful silver dragon stood motionless in place, waiting for the demon lord who boasted of Haikou.

"Thou hast been a good master, and hast kept his promise." The silver dragon said to Ninia, who was standing beside him, "What a demon who is not simple."

"Master has always been like this." Ninia was calm on the surface, but her nervous heart that had been resting for the past few days finally let go, "You will become friends with him."

"Maybe I'll soon become an enemy." The silver dragon said, "If he deceived Yu ...... It's strange that Yu didn't see the statue, is he just trying to deceive Yu?"

"The master will not deceive." Ninia replied, "The strong don't need to survive by deception."

"The strong? Roar roar roar roar ......" the silver dragon let out a stormy laugh, "I want to see what the strong man has brought."

Vincent's party finally reached the top of the mountain, and the centaurs stopped, and the lich commanded a large group of skeletons to carefully carry the boxes down, opening them in a row in front of the silver dragon.

"Tell Yu where the statue is!" The dragon's eyes were murderous, and he glared at the nonchalant lord and asked, "Why did you show this pile?"

Vincent waved his hand, and a row of skeletons opened the boxes in unison, the golden luster glistening in the sunlight, making all the living around them feel dizzy.

"Very well, it's all gold," the silver dragon nodded slightly, "but it's a statue, it's not."

"No, it's a statue." Vincent took out a rectangular piece of gold in the shape of a hollow brick, held it up to the silver dragon, and said, "Make the statue now."

As he spoke, Vincent used the lowest level of object-shifting magic to fly a box of gold nuggets of a completely different shape out of the chest, spreading it out on the ground at regular intervals, so that people could see it from a slightly higher place.

The nugget is very delicate, with a peculiar oblate bump on the upper surface, in addition to being smooth, and a square hollow underneath, which seems to coincide with the oblate figure above.

Although it didn't understand Vincent's intentions, the silver dragon seemed to sense that the braggart seemed to have other intentions, so it spewed out a hot breath from its nostrils and continued to look patiently.

Things seem to be getting more and more interesting, though.

The Demon Lord took out the blueprint from his pocket, let it float in the air, and then used his relatively weak, but just enough magic to manipulate the movement of objects, to control the movement of the gold nuggets.

"Roar! It's connected......" The silver dragon looked at the connecting gold nuggets with interest, and gradually revealed a fascinated look, "It seems more interesting than you imagined, these square gold nuggets are making something. Thou art his subordinate, have thou ever seen such a thing?"

"Great dragon, this is the first time I've seen it," Ninia was a little smug, "but the master always creates something amazing."

Boxes of gold nuggets are emptied, then float up in an orderly manner, connecting to form new shapes with unimaginable ingenuity, growing in size and vividness.
