Chapter 541 The Prologue Begins (8000 Words)

"Everyone, please pay attention. This is the product produced by our factory. It has to go through 64 procedures in total, and each procedure needs to be strictly controlled."

"There are 6 production areas in total, and each production area has 12 production personnel, divided into two production teams."

"This is the work task of each production area. The difficulty of the task is not great. It is more about the operation of various production machines..."

"Everyone can take a closer look, but remember not to start casually. It is very dangerous to do so without training."

Lin Qi's clear voice fell into everyone's ears, asking them to keep up with his pace.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

The "rumbling" sound of the rolling machinery made Yondala unable to look away.

The steel machinery, which is quite huge for adults, is even bigger in her eyes.

Such a huge machine, under the control of the workers, produces one tiny arrow after another, which gives her a strange feeling.

Yundala is quite fascinated by the exposed mechanical structure and always looks over unconsciously.

Rike next to her is different. She cares more about the arrow that seems to be very slow, but is actually produced at a very fast speed.

The edges of these arrows emit a cold light, and they move forward quietly on the conveyor belt.

After these metal arrows reach the next process, the huge metal stamping device falls down quickly.

In conjunction with the pale golden refined gold processing parts below, deep grooves are instantly printed on the metal arrows.

The next process will make the metal arrows sharper and more deadly!

The entire processing time is not long.

It takes the same time as they browse the entire production process.

They saw with their own eyes the birth of a batch of metal arrows, densely piled together, neatly placed in the box.

As for everything in front of Youdala and Rui Ke, it is so novel that it safely subverts the impression of the production factory in their hearts.

In their opinion, the production factory should be a bunch of skilled masters, with a bunch of apprentices helping, slowly hammering out one by one.

Both beautiful and artistic!

The situation in front of them is completely different.

The staff have a lot of work to do, but most of them are controlling the machinery and have never touched the production.

Moreover, the production speed is too fast.

The production line with more than 100 people can produce more than 100,000 arrows every day!

100,000!

Yondala felt that she would never be able to shoot so many arrows in her lifetime.

At the same time, she was a little confused about the work content of the factory, as if the machine had already done the job.

What should they do now?

"Everyone's task is very simple, that is to supervise these machines and make them work well."

"For each batch of products produced, each process is tested."

"This work will be a bit boring, but it usually doesn't last too long."

"Everyone will change the production line every two months, learn to produce different types of products, and understand the principles."

"Everyone can study the mechanical knowledge in this area after work."

"If you can learn this knowledge and give better improvement conditions, and thus get some rewards for improving technology, you can get rewards from the production factory!"

"At present, each production factory has produced several examples of improved technology with a reward amount of more than tens of thousands of gold coins!"

"So, as long as everyone works hard and studies hard, there will also be a brighter future and way out..."

Hearing Lin Qi's words, most refugees felt very excited.

They have basically understood the conditions of working in the factory.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are all included.

You can apply for accommodation in the factory dormitory area.

Work for 5 days and rest for 2 days.

The working hours per day shall not exceed 8 hours.

There are 2 hours of learning and improvement courses every day.

There are 2 combat trainings every week.

As long as you come here to work, food, clothing, housing and transportation are basically all included.

Not only is there no burden, but it seems to make everyone continue to get better.

The salary can also make them very satisfied.

Take the arrow production line just now as an example.

The daily task is 100,000, and the basic salary is 2 silver coins per day!

If it can exceed 100,000, the 10% profit of the excess will be shared equally by everyone in the entire production line.

According to some old employees, they will produce about 30,000 more arrows every day.

Each arrow can be sold for 1 silver coin, and the profit is about 60 copper coins. The total amount that can be distributed to everyone is 1,800 silver coins.

Each person can get at least 15 more silver coins!

In a month, everyone can receive an extra reward of more than 4.5 gold coins!

Even a considerable number of beginner adventurers do not have as high an income as them!

This is an unimaginable high income for most refugees.

In the past, working hard for a year was not even as good as this month!

It is precisely because of this that most refugees are very satisfied and can't wait to start working.

Lin Qi quickly took them to the work skills training room, and the instructor who had been prepared trained them in these work skills.

There was no mysterious technical concept, and the instructor directly let them get started.

Youdala and Rui Ke were no exception.

Under the guidance of the instructor, they slowly controlled the production equipment and forged the fruits of their labor,

a metal arrowhead that was heavy and of good quality.

This hand-in-hand teaching method and the simple operation of controlling the machinery made all the refugees feel incredible.

The seemingly complicated production process left them with very simple production tasks.

As long as they can recognize the common language and pass simple hands-on training.

They will have the illusion that they can start working on the production line.

However, although time is tight, the Gulf Territory will not let them go on stage.

Various different production products.

General inspection methods for various products.

Production adjustments after product problems occur.

The production principles of various production machinery.

Teach them as much as possible.

In addition, the instructor will arrange their different learning tasks according to their acceptance level.

Youdala and Rui Ke have a higher acceptance level. They quickly learned the production processes of several production lines and began to get more in touch with the production principles of various machines.

After understanding the structure and situation of these machines.

The two were somewhat surprised to find that the mechanical structure was not particularly complicated, but surprisingly simple.

However, it does not mean that it can be easily imitated.

Because the energy source of most production machinery comes from the magic-powered brake device.

They do not have the authority to observe and learn!

The two were not surprised by this, but felt that this was as it should be.

The uncomplicated tasks and the relatively easy production made them feel special.

It does not seem to be difficult to accept to work in the production factory here.

However, the two of them thought about it for a long time and finally strengthened their beliefs.

Improve the authority as quickly as possible and become a reserve soldier as soon as possible.

After passing the daily training courses.

They were allowed to visit the Bay City.

Of course, they can only visit.

If they have money, they can also trade and buy.

This arrangement made Yondala and Rui Ke quite excited.

The two of them walked together and kept "wandering" in the Bay City.

Taste the food of the Bay Territory.

In fact, they were secretly checking the food structure of the Bay Territory.

Go to the Adventurer's Guild for a stroll.

You can collect a lot of information about the Gulf Territory, and you can also learn about the situation in the Gulf Territory from the adventurers.

Going to buy some clothes and daily necessities.

Practice the Gulf Territory's brochure to see if it is as they say.

Even strolling on the street.

They are observing the various aspects of life in the Gulf Territory.

They know that their actions are a bit too "obvious", but this is also a test.

However, the results and feedback they get give them an unreal feeling.

The Gulf Territory, hiding in the corner of the Eastern Province, has really given them quite a lot of surprises.

The cost of living is shockingly low, at least 30% lower than other surrounding areas.

Moreover, the food is delicious and the atmosphere is good.

They have never seen anyone quarrel.

Well, it must have nothing to do with the guards walking on both sides of the street and the Dragon Knight No. 1 Golem standing still.

They saw many adventurers here.

They also saw refugees who were a little uneasy like them a few days ago.

The two only browsed for half a day and then stayed obediently in the dormitory area arranged by the factory.

Then, they were surprised to find that there were some living facilities around the dormitory area.

There were even libraries and training grounds that they were very interested in!

In this way, the two of them received training in the morning, spent the afternoon in the training ground, and went to the library together in the evening.

A week passed quickly.

Time came to the second week.

Their daily life did not change much.

It was just a morning training course, which turned into entering the production line to start.

With their learning ability, after simple adjustments and running-in, they have become qualified production workers.

Just as the two of them were busy working.

The news that the Gulf Territory was short of food had spread rapidly throughout the Netheril Empire under the efforts of many parties.

After seeing the situation in the Gulf Territory.

They actually endured and did not continue to send refugees to them.

However, seeing that other lords continued to send refugees to the Gulf Territory as before, and the Gulf Territory did not refuse them.

They did not continue to insist.

Who made the Gulf Territory choose it?

December 4.

Gulf Territory.

Lord's Mansion.

Ralph, the housekeeper, who was looking through the information, quickly sent a communication to Angela, and asked Matthew hesitantly:

"The number of dragon blood creatures in many surrounding territories is increasing, and there is a tendency to approach the territory."

"Could it be that someone can really control these dragon blood creatures to target our Bay Territory?"

After hearing this, Matthew looked through the recent development of the Bay Territory, and after confirming that everything was as planned, he carefully looked through the memories in his mind.

In Matthew's memory, the "Mad Dragon Disaster" caused by the Mad Dragon Maze was the first server-wide expansion pack in the game.

It is also the prelude to the ups and downs of the entire material plane in the next few decades.

Previous players thought it was a wonderful carnival that allowed everyone to take risks and do things as much as they wanted.

Of course, the unprecedented "crazy dragon disaster" almost turned the entire material plane upside down.

Almost all adventurers died under the influence of the Dragon Calamity!

And not just once!

It is precisely because of the bloody lessons of the "Crazy Dragon's Disaster" that the unscrupulous players have restrained themselves a lot.

Since then, players have become much more "behaved"

However, few players are interested in the source of the "crazy dragon disaster".

As players continue to deepen their understanding of the background and history of the entire game, and marvel at the ingenuity and rigor of the entire game, they can't help but feel a little confused.

Who caused the dragon disaster?

Who caused this fatal catastrophe?

What is their purpose in doing this?

There are no "answers" to many questions, especially the subsequent turbulence that followed, which made players addicted to it and led to the loss of a lot of data.

In a series of turbulence, players have the initial ability to protect themselves.

Finally, I want to have a deeper understanding of the history and background of the entire world.

They suddenly discovered that many historical clues had already disappeared in the turmoil and disaster just like in the catastrophic years.

But now, Matthew has a clearer understanding and understanding of the changes in the "Crazy Dragon Disaster".

"This thing is like a neutral wild monster controller. It can control wild monsters and attack its enemies."

There are very obvious traces. If you work backwards from the memory to the present, you can get many clues that are difficult for ordinary people to detect.

The cause of this thing must have something to do with elves.

Matthew also never believed that the elves had no control over the "Crazy Dragon Mystery Lock".

After all, even in the next "Crazy Dragon Disaster", the Jinling area will be minimally affected, just like dozens of times before.

Now, with so many dragon-blooded creatures approaching the Gulf Territory, it is difficult to say that there is no "instruction" from the Cole Elf Kingdom.

"Sure enough, even if I don't provoke them, those guys will be eager to attack the Gulf Territory."

"In that case, let me add some surprises to you so that you don't have to bother me all the time!"

Matthew looked at the map silently and said softly with a firm tone and tone:

"The arrival of these dragon-blooded creatures can better inspire the enthusiasm of friends in the surrounding territories to defend their homeland, and it would be great to increase support for adventurers."

After hearing this, Butler Ralph couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart, and asked Matthew tentatively:

"There is not much of a problem in this regard, but other territories still have not paid the reward funds."

With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, Matthew pointed to the many shining spots on the map and said in a matter-of-fact tone:

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if they don't give me money. Anyway, I have enough stuff to pay off the debt."

Butler Ralph looked where Matthew was pointing, his eyes immediately flashing with surprise.

He quickly understood and nodded with a smile:

"Understood, let me tell the adventurers to intensify their cleaning efforts and try to make the surrounding territories owe us more."

Matthew nodded, recalling the memories of dragon-blooded creatures swarming over, and continued to warn:

"Inform the military factory to increase the production of consumables such as crossbows."

"Inform Lao Li that we need more medicine."

"Remember to send a warning message to the dwarf kingdom. This time the dragon disaster is different from the past, and the underground world may not be safe either."

"In addition, inform Aini and ask her to come over quickly."

After finishing speaking, Matthew lowered his head and kept writing and drawing, as if he was sketching the drawing.

Butler Ralph arranged the task as quickly as possible and sent the order to increase production to the factory area.

About 10 minutes later.

Aini walked into the office with a smile on her face.

Behind her were several tall elf warriors, with tall and strong bodies, not at all like the slim and thin elves.

Obviously, these are the elf-reformed warriors.

Aini is quite satisfied with the combat effectiveness of the reformed warriors.

However, currently, there are no plans to put them into the battlefield.

Before the number increases to a certain level, it is best for the transformed warriors not to be noticed by the El Elf Kingdom.

Aini did not speak immediately. Instead, she waited for Matthew to finish writing and then asked directly:

"What do you want from me?"

Matthew waved to her, and under the frightened gazes of several elf transformation warriors, he asked lightly:

"Are the other El Elf families ready for the deal?"

A little surprise suddenly appeared on her face. Thinking about the faces of those guys, Aini smiled and nodded and replied:

"Yes, they have been waiting for a long time, and they will definitely be happy to offer the highest price this time."

Legendary element crystal + 50 million gold coins in supplies!

Matthew touched the tip of his nose with his hand and did not hide his thoughts. He said to Aini straightforwardly:

"This transaction requires some large-scale ship manufacturing technology."

"If possible, the Gulf Territory also needs some extraordinary level puppet and golem manufacturing technology."

"Regarding the technical judgment in this regard, Gulf Ling is willing to offer a priority bidding quota that is 20% higher than the market price..."

Aini's heart moved, and she immediately guessed the meaning behind Matthew's words.

If it were a normal auction, Gulf Collier might not be able to get what he wanted right away.

If this method is used, the Gulf leaders can directly get what they want, and they can also take the initiative in their hands.

After all, compared to the extraordinary level of arcane magic and golem knowledge, the more domineering Tree of Life is undoubtedly a better choice.

No elf is willing to give up and should be able to bring many options to the Gulf tie.

Various thoughts flashed through Aini's mind. She nodded solemnly and said to Matthew with a smile:

"No problem, I will notify them right away. I believe I will get a reply soon."

"They can have all these things ready in half a day at most!"

Matthew nodded and motioned for Ani to do it as soon as possible.

After Aini left, Matthew walked to the underground laboratory without hesitation.

There, he had gifts to prepare for the El elves.

It is difficult to clean out the pockets of the El elves with just the Tree of Life.

While developing the Gulf Territory, it also caused trouble for the Cole Elf Kingdom.

This is how Matthew would respond!

The afternoon came quickly.

Yaya curiously looked at the burly figures around him, and could clearly feel the changes in them from before.

The metallic luster has become more translucent, the momentum is higher than before, and even the appearance has really improved a bit.

The fourth modified version of Dragoon 1 specifically uses the fusion of gray dwarf and dwarf alchemy techniques.

Using higher-quality metal materials, it is not only lighter and more flexible, but also has the same defensive capabilities, while also taking the magic resistance to a new level.

Judging from the data panel, physical fitness has increased by 2 points and has reached 28!

Magic resistance has also increased by 10 points, which can greatly weaken magic damage.

The teleportation circle slowly lights up.

More elves than last time appeared in front of Matthew's eyes.

There are many familiar faces and some new faces.

However, Matthew was more confident this time and greeted them with a smile.

He did not ask Aini to introduce to these elves the various war tools produced by the Gulf Territory like last time.

I only gave them a simple summary:

"The war materials produced in the Gulf Territory have completed a new iteration."

"Performance has gone up by at least 30%, but the price has only gone up 15%."

"Elf friends who are interested can take a good look."

Compared to the last time, I was more curious and unfamiliar.

This time, many elven lords came closer.

Many of them are repeat customers. During these days of fighting, they were very satisfied with the various war materials produced by the Gulf Territory.

"These enchanted crossbows are really good and have caused considerable damage to those rebellious people."

"I suggest buying more Demon-Breaking Crossbow Arrows, which are specially used to hunt down spell-casting units. They are very effective."

"The blood-activating potion and advanced nutrient solution are also very good. They can greatly improve battery life and long-lasting combat effectiveness, and the price is also very cheap..."

The reason why they praise the materials produced by the Gulf Territory so highly.

The quality of these materials produced in the Gulf Territory is indeed good.

What’s more, Bayland has offered a more “favorable” group purchase price!

The more of the same item they buy together.

The discounts offered by Bay Collar are even greater.

The El elves, who were being severely beaten by the Cole Elf Kingdom, completed their observations and discussions as quickly as possible.

Most of the supplies were fine and aroused the interest of many El elves.

However, Matthew did not give them much observation time this time, and shouted to all the elves very simply:

"Guys, to satisfy everyone's thirst for the Tree of Life."

"We mobilized dozens of experts and masters to conduct intensive research, and spent more than millions of gold coins to cultivate it."

“Because the success rate is not very high, that’s why we offer such a high price.”

"If everyone is willing to trust us in the Gulf Territory, then you can continue to cooperate with us overseas."

"Although there is only one Tree of Life this time, we will choose to trade with everyone every three months in the future."

For Matthew to open his mouth and admit that he can cultivate the tree of life.

The elves who arrived all breathed a sigh of relief.

They have checked and confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the Tree of Life from the last transaction.

Although the price offered by the Gulf Territory is high, most elven lords can still grit their teeth and accept it.

Not to mention anything else, the extra water of life and lifespan are enough for them to recover their capital.

Of course, it is not that there are no El elves who want to obtain the technology and secrets of the Gulf Territory to cultivate the Tree of Life.

However, after seeing dozens of Dragon Knight No. 1 Golems around him, he still very obediently gave up his inappropriate thoughts.

The transaction was completed quickly.

The leader of the El Elf Jinmu family, Kairel, acquired the ownership of this tree of life.

In addition to providing a legendary element crystal, 30 million gold coins of magic materials and magic plants.

It also provides five-masted warship manufacturing technology and upgraded and improved manufacturing technology for three steel golems.

The manufacturing technology of the five-masted warship can enable the Gulf Territory to develop the east coast.

The latter inspired Macaron and Victor.

It allowed them to take the technology of making golems a step further.

What made Matthew interesting was that the bidding between the El elves this time was not fierce.

It seemed that before coming, it had been determined who would get the Tree of Life.

Instead, when they browsed various war materials, they showed their own ideas and interests.

Most of the elf lords like the enchanted crossbows produced by the Gulf Territory.

This is due to the research and development and improvement of the dragon hunting crossbow technology.

The lethality and technical level of the enchanted crossbows have also been further improved.

Therefore, this weapon with extremely high cost performance, rapid deployment and immediate effect has won their favor.

At the same time, some elf lords want to purchase the dragon hunting crossbows of the Gulf Territory.

The dragon hunting crossbow is not very effective against ordinary Cole elf combat units.

But it has excellent destructive power against war puppets and golems.

Matthew "hesitated" for a while and rejected their request.

Instead, he solemnly introduced to them the good stuff specially prepared:

"The unique distortion toxin from the Catachan plane!"

"This thing is more suitable for everyone to use in the process of defensive battle."

"Moreover, the lethality it brings is not inferior to the lethality caused by the dragon hunting crossbow, and it is even more convenient and effective."

Matthew took out a bottle of emerald green distortion toxin.

The surrounding elf lords looked over and felt that the toxin in his hand was very attractive.

It seemed to absorb their eyes and souls.

The leader of the team, Kyriel, coughed lightly, and the surrounding elf lords. Only then did they react.

The eyes looking at the distortion toxin were all a bit vigilant and horrified.

Matthew's deliberate show made them very interested.

Under their curious gaze, Matthew opened the bottle cap of the distortion toxin.

The emerald green distortion toxin inside seemed to come alive, scrambling to spread upwards.

Matthew lightly tapped the mouth of the bottle, and these threatening toxins immediately fell into a state of stagnation.

Some extraordinary elf spellcasters carefully watched Matthew's small hand, with a little surprise in their eyes.

The real power of time!

Matthew pretended not to see it, wiped a little distortion toxin with the arrow head, and placed it in an ordinary enchanted crossbow.

He aimed at the steel golem in a defensive posture in the distance and pulled the trigger!

Whoosh!

The arrow flew out without showing any special movement.

Only when it hit the thick and solid arms of the steel golem did it suddenly change strangely.

The emerald green light suddenly burst out, and a big hole was melted in the thick arms of the steel golem.

The sound of burning and corrosion of "sizzling" was clearly transmitted to every elf lord.

They looked at the golem carefully.

The crossbow arrow penetrated the defense of the steel golem's arms, pierced heavily into its chest, and corroded a fist-sized hole.

Half of the golem's body has been covered with emerald scars, and its overall movements have become very stiff and slow, and it has a tendency to collapse at any time.

Such amazing lethality makes every elf lord's eyes light up.

Not only because of its excellent lethality, but also because it can be attached to ordinary crossbows for shooting.

In the eyes of the elf lords, this is actually a more outstanding advantage.

After all, this kind of unexpected killing can often produce very effective results.

At that time, all the attacking Cole elves will be afraid of the arrowheads shot from ordinary crossbows.

Because, in the arrowheads, there is a high possibility that deadly and terrifying lethality will be hidden.

This invisible deterrent force can prevent the opponent from attacking recklessly.

It can greatly reduce the pressure they face on defense.

Matthew introduced the characteristics of this distorted toxin to them:

"When you want to use it, put these distorted toxins in ice water to temporarily slow down their activity."

"Then, apply it to the arrow, and after the impact occurs, it can burst out with very strong destructive power to corrode metal."

"Except for extremely rare metals such as thorium and gold crystal, this distorted toxin can easily destroy the protection of most metals."

"The impact range can even reach two meters."

"However, this mutated toxin also has a disadvantage."

"That is, their activity is effective for only two hours."

"After two hours, the opened poison will lose its effect, and the slowing effect on the metal will disappear..."

While speaking, Matthew has already stretched out his hand to the steel golem in the distance that can hardly be re-tanked.

The green scars on its body slowly disappeared, and its whole body returned to its original state, and it could move easily and freely.

If it weren't for the big holes on its arms and chest, everyone would have thought nothing had happened.

Of course, after Matthew snapped his fingers, the severely damaged iron golem instantly restored its original appearance.

Matthew's skillful use of the power of time.

Almost all the elf lords remembered it silently in their hearts.

Almost no one was willing to fight against an enemy who controlled the power of time!

The effect of the distortion toxin made all the elf lords very satisfied.

Although it has various disadvantages such as being difficult to use, it has a very good effect on their current defensive operations.

It can especially restrain the war puppets and golems of the Cole Elf Kingdom.

Seeing that they were so satisfied, Matthew also offered a price that made them feel a little painful:

"Each bottle of distortion toxin requires killing very powerful Catachan demons in the Catachan plane to produce it, and the output is also very low."

"Each bottle requires 200,000 gold coins, and only 50 bottles have been produced so far, first come first served."

Ya Ya, who heard this next to him, became even brighter.

"Ah! Really good at fooling..."
