376. Make cement? Isn't that just a matter of having hands?

Although Scarlet Castle's "Master of Engineering" Sharon Jr. wanted to see the winner of Translasia's first boxing championship, she finally decided to leave for the arsenal in Under Armour Hills after three days at Scarlet Keep.

On the one hand, Master Murphy and his apprentice Brother Loyalty have been urging, although Brother Loyalty is very interested in the steam engineering things on the continent and is determined to learn these things proficiently, but it takes time to learn and learn it itself, and now Brother Loyalty does not have the ability to independently run an arsenal based on "fantasy engineering".

To put it simply, Brother Loyal is shaking people and desperately hopes that his little mentor will come to take charge of the overall situation.

On the other hand, the main body of the arsenal on the Under Armour Hills has been completed, and the power source of the large steam furnace promised by the "partners" Capet family has also been started to be shipped to the Under Armour Hills.

It is said that a dozen skilled workers sent here by the Capetian family have already begun assembling the production line and selecting apprentices from nearby villages and homeless people at the behest of Brother Loyalty, which means that the actual production of the arsenal is on the agenda.

Little Sharon still has a lot of affection for this factory.

The weapons production lines that make up the first arsenal of Transencia are all from the former city of Sico, which is her "ancestral property", and she thought that she could never get it back but was taken back by Lord Murphy by political means.

Now that she is one of the managers and rulers of Translasia, it makes sense that she must be personally involved in the management of the arsenal, but unfortunately Director Deen, who was in charge of the factory district of Sico, and his team of shrewd and capable workers have been killed by the plague.

However, considering that the victims of Xike City have evolved into undead who cannot rest in peace, and are bound to rotten bodies, does it mean that one day in the future, they will still be able to see that excellent factory owner?

With this question in mind, escorted by two hussars and four mountain warriors, Sharon's carriage slowly set off from the Crimson Keep.

However, before he could get far, an unexpected visitor appeared at the carriage and asked to board the carriage to talk to Sharon.

Although the little earl has also inherited the unique blood of Lord Murphy, because the blood contract has been severed by the family's blood, her resistance to sunlight is far less than that of Maxim and Adele, even in the dim carriage during the day, she still can't lift her spirits.

It was only out of insistence on his own lineage that he had not yet slept in the coffin of delicate walnut that he had placed in the carriage.

"Lady Dorothy?"

Sharon looked at the leader of the Blood Rat Gang who boarded the carriage, and she said in surprise as she drank refreshing hot tea at the suggestion of the strange Count Andrew:

"What's the matter with you? As you can see, I'm leaving the Crimson Keep, and my next time I'll be back is estimated to be at least twenty days away. ”

"That's why I'm in a hurry to visit."

Dorothy didn't waste Sharon's time, she took out a "sample" from her psionic bag and handed it to the little earl, who took it in his hand and looked at it.

This is an elaborate cardboard, with 64 unified squares of eight horizontal and eight vertical, on which different symbols are drawn, and the drawings are very small and can be seen to be various animals that exist in reality or legends, with a few repetitive but mostly independent.

At the bottom of the cardboard, the rules of this "game" are written in the simplest words, how smart Xiao Sharon is, she immediately reacts:

"Is this a lottery ticket?"

"Yes, it's very similar to the lottery tickets that halflings give out when they celebrate in their cities, but the rules are a little more complicated, it's essentially a small gamble, something that can't be put on the table."

Dorothy leaned back on the seat of the carriage and said to little Sharon what she had heard from Old Huo:

"For example, this one in your hand, after it is formed, I will ask the warrior psionists in the Blood Rat Gang to camouflage it, and sell it for 5 copper each, and the buyer only needs to tear off the poor psionic camouflage to see their 'winning' after holding it in his hand.

As long as there is one griffin in the animal pattern, you can redeem 5 silver coins at the point of purchase, ten silver coins for two griffons, 20 silver coins for three griffins, and if you can catch the combination of flying lion + griffin + sea monster, it is the first prize.

A full 10 coins! ”

"That's gambling!"

Sharon said vigilantly:

"My mom grew up telling me not to gamble, she grew up in a halfling city, and she's seen a lot of poor creatures who lost their lives in casinos run by the thieves' guild, and you're going to sell this kind of stuff at the Crimson Keep?

You have no conscience! The people here are poor enough. ”

"How is that possible?"

Dorothy rolled her eyes and said:

"The people of the Crimson Keep use labor points, the circulation of money here is restricted, and they don't have much money in their hands, we will put this thing in the underground black market of the Crimson Keep and Batasin City as a pilot, and by the way, sell it to the North to see the effect.

Of course, this is just a bigger plan to warm up, and this little thing is going to spread the word to those who have money and nowhere to spend it, that is, Transncia also has a place where they can spend their money in style.

Don't ask too much, just say can you design a printing press for us to mass-produce this 'scratch' ticket, right? ”

"Absolutely, it's not difficult at all."

Sharon snorted and said:

"Not only can I design, but I can also make a random pattern for it, and I can even set the probability of the jackpot according to the degree of your black heart, which only requires two arithmetic orbs as the core of the arithmetic to achieve this function.

But it's going to be very delicate and heavy when it's made, so you'll have to find a place to store it. ”

"Well, that's exactly what I wanted to hear! Well, the machine is up to you. ”

Dorothy whispered:

"Can it be done in five days? Please understand that my 'partners' are not willing to waste more time, and this is the time for us to show them what we are capable of, and I urgently need us to come up with the physical products as soon as possible. ”

"If the time is so tight, you have to use a special way, if you use the typewriter I carry with me, you can, but you have to add money!"

The little Sharon said with his mouth open:

"With a base price of 100 gold coins, I can still do it in three days, but if I want to shorten the working hours, it means I have to stay up late and work overtime. I heard a great word from Master Murphy called 'labor cost'.

I'm a dignified Earl of Sico, and I'm going to work hard to do this hurtful thing for you, which condemns my conscience, so I'll offer 300 gold coins! This may soothe my tormented conscience."

"But you're a vampire! Staying up late to work is not a stress at all for you, it's a benefit"

Dorothy complained:

"I know that you, as Earl Sico, have been given money to rebuild your realm, and I know that you have taken your craft to the extreme, crafting some fine guns and selling them for ten times the price to those swaggering warriors.

You're bullying those otherworldly spirits for their lack of knowledge!

But I'm a local, Earl Sharon Jr., so there's no need for such a ruthless price, right? ”

"Okay, then I'll give you a discount."

Little Sharon laughed like a fox stealing a chicken, and she covered her mouth and said:

"250 gold coins, this can't be less, it's still for the sake of our friendship, and if we want more machines of the same type in the future, 300 for a machine, no bargaining."

"Deal!"

With a gloomy face, Dorothy took out a money bag from her psionic bag and threw it to the "little vampire" in front of her, and she didn't stay long before leaving Sharon's carriage.

She also had to report the matter to her immediate boss, Lady Adele, to find out what was going on with her and Master Murphy.

Although the Blood Rat Gang is tasked with earning operational funds for the Shadow Intelligence Agency, the nature of what Dorothy is doing at the moment is very different from opening a market in the Fight Club, and she must get the approval and letter of appointment from her superiors before she carries it out, so that she can find a "backstabber" even if something happens later.

Always find yourself a good way out!

This is Dorothy's philosophy of survival, and the fact that she has survived to the present day under the pursuit of mysterious forces and the more she lives is fully proof that her survival strategy is correct.

Update 3.0 was Friday, and two days later it was the weekend, which coincided with the day when the development team committed to dropping a batch of gaming devices each week.

There are only 50 places to be distributed today, but it is enough to liven up the forum.

The number of Satisfy Clans on the forums has soared to 1,500, thanks in large part to the success of the RP Party, a unique gaming group in Translasia, and having their own territory makes it easier to recruit more like-minded people from their "taverns".

The remaining part of the rapid growth comes from the impact of the self-made promotional CG that was taken down in the middle of the game and spread privately in various groups.

As the UP master, Sain's newly built three thousand groups have been filled up in the past few days, and he is building more groups.

Of course, he also knows that the sailors attracted by this method are absolutely good and bad, and they need to be ruthlessly "purified and purified", which is a matter of responsibility, in case something happens to the sailors who enter the game from his channel, he will have to bear the "administrative punishment".

If this is an ordinary game, the responsibility will be carried on the back, even if there is a GM who is nothing more than kicking himself out of the game, but the unique game mode of "Real Otherworld" puts a lot of pressure on Sein.

Although he doesn't have many "assets" in the game at the moment, he really can't leave this land that he has paid so much for.

All in all, everything is steadily improving, but this time one of the 50 players who entered the game was exceptional.

Meng Haha didn't enter "Real Otherworld" in time for the first wave of new players to log in to the game, she waited until half an hour later to be "late". This made Sister Pomegranate, who was waiting for her at the door of the midnight secret room, a little unhappy, and the friend she remembered was not a person who would be late casually.

"Sorry, I overslept."

The cute ha in the game is as leisurely and leisurely as in reality.,It's like a little old man who walks out slowly in all directions.,The head turns around and looks like a standard budding new.,It's curious to see everything.。

Maybe it's because she doesn't have glasses on the bridge of her nose that makes her a little unaccustomed, and she always subconsciously touches the bridge of her nose when she speaks, and walks out of the corridor with Sister Pomegranate holding hands with a smile.

"Did you get home well?"

Sister Pomegranate asked:

"I'm going to keep you here for a few more days, but you've only been here for two days and you're leaving, what's going on at home?"

"It's not."

Meng Ha looked at the gas lamp hanging at the top of the aisle, as if thinking about the working principle of this thing, and replied casually:

"It's because of other things, remember what I said to you on the way from the airport to your house about the 'lockdown'? It's already been implemented, and it's probably going to be fast on your side. I have heard from some of my sources that this time the lockdown will be nationwide and the duration is unknown, but the overall environment is not optimistic.

There has been frequent chaos abroad, and our wave is defensive self-protection.

Don't go anywhere during this time.

Stay at home obediently, it's good to play a game and play a game, and by the way, send me your current weight and body data, and I will help you develop a training plan for free, just like our 'perfect fit' in the past. ”

"Is it so serious?"

Sister Pomegranate was startled, she rubbed her head and said:

"I've been addicted to games all this time, and I haven't paid much attention to the real news, but I just heard Lumina complain in the group that they can't control it, and that guy is preparing to go back to China to avoid it."

"Oh, yes, Lumina, you said before, an international student, right?"

Meng Ha narrowed her eyes, and then said with a smile:

"Take me to meet them, I'm still curious about what kind of strange woman can make my pomegranate so arrogant person be a member of the team, instead of competing for the throne of the team leader. I thought you had changed your mind. ”

"Be serious."

Sister Pomegranate pushed and snuggled up to her own cuteness, she said:

"I'll take you to register your identity first, and after you get the Calculation Orb and the Psionic Dog Tag, you can take a walk around the city first, Lumina and the others can bring a new batch of homeless people from Batasin City back tonight to settle down, and I will introduce you to them then, and then you will be the psionic mage of our Silver Moon Pride Regiment!"

"Hey, I don't want to learn any spells."

Moe Ha pouted and said:

"I'm a physicist, do you understand? I worship Albert Einstein and the god Boer! Although Master Zu can't manage this place, the transition from a staunch materialist believer to a user of mystical cosmic energy is too great, and I am afraid that Master Zu will give me a dream at night and scold me for being an unworthy descendant. ”

"But didn't your lord Niu finally convert to theology?"

Sister Pomegranate laughed, summoned her own gargoyles quite sassy, and took her little friends to experience the joy of flying.

If it weren't for the fact that it would be afternoon, the player vampire would not want to fly in this environment, and Sister Pomegranate designated to fly into the sky with Meng Ha and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun father.

Her friendship with Moe Ha is not quite the same as that of her and the rest of the Silvermoon Troupe.

After all, no matter how well you play, it's also a "netizen relationship", but Meng Ha is a real good friend who has known him for many years.

When this guy was a poor graduate student, there was a period of time when Sister Pomegranate "raised" her, and during the most depressed time when Sister Pomegranate retired due to injury, it was Mengha who always accompanied her and enlightened her.

The two have been friends for many years.

In Mengha's words, if it weren't for the same gender and the two of them had a normal orientation, Pomegranate would have been her most perfect life partner a long time ago.

"Go ahead and get busy yourself, you're a veteran player, so you must have a lot to do."

After receiving the Orb of Calculation and the Psionic Dog Tag, and taking over the initial quest in the Adventurer's Guild, Meng Ha said to Sister Pomegranate:

"Leave me alone, I'm wandering around the city by myself, you know me, I'm interested in something different from ordinary people, I'll observe this place in my own way first, and you tell me a meeting place.

I'll go straight to you when the time comes. ”

"Okay!"

Sister Pomegranate is very confident in her friend's "survivability", she said:

"Then at half past nine, we will meet at the entrance of the cloister, Mrs. Water's shop in the city's trade area is about to open, let's go and clean up for her tonight, and by the way, move the tailoring tools and work class in the camp to prepare for next month's opening.

When the time comes, I'll introduce you to them, they're all very nice people, and you'll definitely get along with them. ”

"Okay, no problem."

Meng Habi made an OK gesture, and then watched Sister Pomegranate whistle and summon the demon hunting horse wandering in the distance, and then turned over and galloped away in a dashing manner.

The sassy back made Meng Haha swallow his saliva unhappily.

"Well, why am I not a man, or are you not a man? I'm angry! ”

The physicist stamped his foot in exasperation, but quickly adjusted his mood and wandered around with his hands behind his back.

Although she also entered the game with a mission.

However, it does not belong to the official establishment of Brother Loyalty's powerful department, if I have to say, she belongs to the "special personnel" and consultants, so compared to Brother Loyalty's group, she has a lot more freedom.

"Lumina Imprint is going back to China, so Brother Loyal doesn't have to worry about her safety, but it's surprising that the 'Terranova' they tracked down last time actually took the initiative to admit it and tell the strange reason."

Meng Ha thought in her heart:

"There is a mysterious 'peer' in Lumina's group who is working on Real Otherworld, and it seems that a very primitive prototype has been created based on the principle of brainwave interference.

Is there really such a madman?

Even if she made such an instrument with no theoretical basis at all, would she dare to let others use it? Well? What are those people doing in front of you? ”

Meng Ha quickly noticed that in the open space ahead, several young people were frowning at a pile of strange things in front of them. Out of scholarly curiosity, she stepped forward to take a look, and then said with a strange look in her eyes:

"You guys. . . Trying to make cement? But how did you make it look like this! I don't know, I thought you were cultivating slimes, hey, I didn't say it, your hands-on ability is a little too poor. ”
