Lord of the Scourge: Become the Demon Archduke In the Beginning

Weapon factory.

The blacksmith apprentice yelled and grasped the pliers, took out the red iron block from the fire and placed it under the alchemy forging machine.

The other apprentice watched the opponent put it firmly, and directly waved the elemental stone on the alchemy forging machine to make it return to the magic circle.

A strong magical power gushes out and is directly instilled into the alchemy forging machine.

The hammer on the top of the machine smashed down with a powerful force, and sparks shot everywhere.

After leaving a visible mark on the red iron block, it rose quickly, and then crashed down under the blessing of magical power.

In this cycle, the red iron nugget is quickly beaten and formed.

With the heat of the iron block, the air became more and more dry and hot.

After the iron block was forged to a certain degree, the apprentice turned off the alchemy machine and threw the forged iron block into a frame beside him.

After a certain amount of iron blocks accumulated in the frame, another blacksmith apprentice dragged it away, and then placed it next to the second alchemy machine, and began the next step of forging...

In the hot air, Loren looked at these blacksmith apprentices sweating forging weapons, and his eyes were quite relieved.

After returning from the Endless Wasteland yesterday, he disrupted and reorganized the more than 1,500 half-orcs he had conquered with hundreds of half-orcs before.

A pure orc army was established, with a total number of 1,700.

These orc warriors are not simply conquering.

Must be fully equipped.

That is to say, the wealthy boy of Bol Lion gave him more than 3,000 sets of equipment, so that he was not so tight on hand.

Otherwise, he was afraid that he would have to make another trip to Dekker City to go to the Bucks family on credit.

But the problem is that the half-orcs are tall, and many of their equipment doesn't fit well.

And part of the equipment has been damaged and needs to be repaired.

So this half-orc army just formed can't be equipped with full equipment.

There is a difference of 500 people, accounting for one-third of the total.

Facing this embarrassing situation, Loren could only look at the weapons department.

Fijana went to Dekker City and bought all the materials for the construction of the alchemy forging machine.

Since the Weapons Department boasted that the alchemy machine was ten times more productive than before, he would naturally not be indifferent to it.

Drew, the Minister of the Weapons Department, stood behind Loren and gave him a detailed introduction to the weapons factory.

"Master Loren, the production process of the alchemy forging machine is not complicated, the materials are complete, and with the help of the caster, it can produce 5 units a day."

"We currently have 16 units and we will be able to produce all 30 units in three days."

"In addition, in terms of weapons production, we have listened to your opinions and divided the weapons production process into more than ten steps.

Each step is produced by a dedicated person. In this way, the production efficiency is higher than we thought..."

Having said that, Drew thought for a while before continuing.

"But it flows like this... well, the assembly line? Your name fits this craft too well.

It is difficult for the equipment produced by the assembly line to have particularly excellent quality, which can be regarded as a drawback. "

"But the shortcomings do not conceal the advantages. With such a high production efficiency, it is a miracle to be able to maintain the superior quality of every sharp sword."

"And in order to further improve the performance of the equipment, we have made additional arrangements. After a good iron embryo is forged, it will be handed over to a real blacksmith to complete the final process."

"In this way, both the quality of weapons and the speed of production can be guaranteed..."

While listening to Drew's words while looking at the dozen or so alchemy forging machines in front of him, Luoren had to feel the wonder of this world.

Without electricity and fuel, he relied on magic to create ancient machines that were not inferior to those in the previous life.

Although it can't keep up with the intelligent equipment, the efficiency of manual forging in this world is at least ten times stronger!

When the workers are exhausted, there are areas where the forging is not in place, and even when the forging mistakes are made.

But the machine will not, as long as the performance of the machine is guaranteed and the energy is provided for it, it can start around the clock 24 hours a day.

And more importantly-there are alchemy machines, no need for high-level blacksmiths to forge high-quality equipment.

The level of blacksmiths is also divided into junior, intermediate and advanced levels. The higher the level of blacksmiths, the better the forging equipment.

Normally, an apprentice-level blacksmith is basically unable to do anything.

Insufficient strength, insufficient skills, and insufficient fire control, making it impossible to forge good equipment.

But it's different with an alchemy forging machine.

The apprentice can forge a piece of steel into the desired state as long as he controls the forging machine.

If the forging is not good enough, it's not that the apprentice can't do it, but the alchemy machine can't do it.

This is equivalent to liberating a large amount of labor, allowing apprentices who were not originally qualified to participate in weapons production to become the main force.

Those liberated blacksmiths can specialize in producing high-level equipment that the alchemy forging machine cannot forge.

How can this not improve production efficiency? !

The hot air didn't affect the joy of Loren at all. After watching it for a long time, he turned his head to look at Drew.

"How many armors and weapons can the Weapons Department produce in a week? Can it meet the needs of 500 Orcs?"

Drew smiled bitterly.

"Master Loren, it is not difficult to produce 500 weapons a week, but the armor... currently only the damaged ones can be repaired for use."

Although it is difficult to forge a sharp sword, forging hundreds of handles a day is no problem.

Forging a full-body armor is difficult.

Armor is the hardest bone for a blacksmith to gnaw off.

In the previous angry bear cavalry armor, hundreds of people in the Weapons Department worked continuously for 24 hours to forge one set.

This is due to the fact that there are several senior blacksmiths working day and night in the blacksmith department.

Drew recounted the difficulty of producing armor, and finally concluded.

"Within a week, the Weapon Department must forge 500 sets of armor, at least to increase to hundreds of alchemy forging machines...

But for now, there is no need to increase it for the time being, and 30 alchemy forging machines are enough for us to use. "

Loren nodded slightly.

"In that case, I am no better than forcing you.

But you also need to produce all the alchemy forging machines in the fastest way. "

"The orcs' fronts are about to touch the city of Bright Moon, and their first attack may not be a threat.

But once the opponent's offense is blocked, he will definitely ask for help. "

"When the main orcs strike, we will fight a tough battle.

Now, it’s time for the Weapons Department to play a role.”

Laurent was very serious, and Drew's face became solemn.

"Master Lauren, the Weapons Department will do its best to serve you!"

Lord Laurent valued the Weapons Department so much, if they didn't make some achievements, then they would really die.

Loren's eyes eased a little, and he glanced around the room.

"Where is the weapon designer who developed the armor of the angry bear cavalry and the alchemy forging machine?"

After seeing the extraordinaryness of the alchemy forging machine, he really wanted to talk to this talented weapon designer at this time.

I don’t know if the other party has any new ideas, such as designing a few soldiers as long as they pull the trigger, and they can do it~ a fully automatic alchemy crossbow that continuously fires...

Or an alchemy cannon that can smash the city wall in one shot...

He is extremely interested in the special magical alchemy technology of this world.

Although this world does not have a lot of energy in the previous life, magic can replace everything.

Those wild ideas in his mind may not be impossible to realize.

"My lord, I have called someone to summon..."

As soon as Drew's words fell, a middle-aged man with a big beard stepped into the house.

After seeing Luoren, the other party suddenly showed a bit of joy on his face, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Master Lauren, good day."

Drew hurriedly said at this time, "Nake, Lord Laurent is mentioning you..."

Loren looked at this extremely rare weapon designer and chuckled.

"Nake, I have seen the alchemy forging machine. It has a good idea and is very practical.

Do you have any new ideas? If you have any, you can say it boldly. If there are practical effects, I will fully support you. "

Nake got a compliment from Loren himself and immediately showed an extremely bright smile.

This is the noble descendant of the Bauhinia family, the lord of the Moon City, and the king who controls the destiny of everyone.

It is undoubtedly an extremely glorious thing to be recognized by the other party.

Although there have been a period of vicissitudes of life, and the experience is not comparable to ordinary people, but at the moment, I am also quite happy.

Respond quickly.

"Master Laurent, after making the alchemy forging machine, many ideas have indeed emerged in my heart."

"Recently, I saw an apprentice in a crossbow and arrow factory making arrows with their bare hands. An arrow has to be split from a huge wood, cut off, and then slowly polished into a circle, and then inlaid with arrows, arrow feathers...

The entire operation, dozens of steps, was extremely time-consuming. "

"I thought about it day and night, and conceived an alchemy machine that can sharpen arrows quickly. With a little manipulation, a log can be directly polished into dozens of arrows, and then only the arrows and feathers are inlaid. It can be made."

"In this way, at least half of the labor will be saved, and the efficiency will be increased several times more than..."

Laurent looked at Nake in surprise.

He didn't expect that this was only ten days, and the other party had conceived a new alchemy machine.

Listening to the other party, you can feel that this alchemy machine can definitely greatly improve the production efficiency of Arrows.

The arrow looks simple, but it is very difficult to actually produce it.

It is necessary to lengthen the arrow body to a suitable level, and to polish it smoothly with sanding, step by step, and a variety of techniques are required.

There are currently hundreds of apprentices working in the Arrow Factory, which consumes a lot of labor.

On the last **** day, Luoren suffered from insufficient arrow reserves, and the subsequent battle was extremely difficult.

There will be a series of battles next, and he will naturally not stop investing in this area.

At this time, when Nacker mentioned it, he was immediately moved.

"In that case, you already have a sketch in your mind? If you give you enough manpower and resources, when will you be able to make it the fastest?"

Nacker hesitated for a moment, and finally he was a little uncertain.

"This alchemy machine is different from the alchemy forging machine. The alchemy forging machine is a mature machine. I just reproduced it.

But this machine needs to be debugged and improved, and it may not be able to make such a fast progress. "

Loren nodded, but he was also mentally prepared for it.

"It's okay. In this way, I will assign you a quota of 20 people, let you choose the staff, and form a new research department."

"This department is under your full authority and is directly responsible to me. It is dedicated to researching alchemy machines and top equipment."

If you want the industry of Bright Moon City to develop, you cannot stop investing in scientific research.

Nacker has confirmed his worth, and Loren will not be stingy about it.

"Your recognition is my glory!"

Nacker's face flushed with excitement.

Although he is a member of the Weapons Department, his status is not low.

But how can it be cool to control a department by yourself and be directly responsible for the master of Bright Moon City?

He went from being a refugee who was dying in exile, and now he has no worries about food and clothing, and he is about to take a step further and become the upper hand in power.

Naturally, there will be no peace inside.

Loren nodded, and then said with interest as if thinking of something.

"Although I don't have much experience in weapon and equipment design, I have also read some special alchemy machines in some ancient books.

Let me talk to you now and see if these special alchemy machines are possible for forging. "

Nake didn't care much when he heard the words, thinking that Loren was just talking casually.

But after he spoke, he was immediately suppressed.

What flying machines that can fly beyond sound, attack alchemy bombs with a range of tens of thousands of kilometers...One is more mysterious than the other.

But the key is that the other party can still come up with some of the principles, although it is very shallow, but after he thinks about it, it is really possible to realize it...

However, the complexity of the materials and the superb technology required were not something he and the current Bright Moon City could accomplish.

But in the end, it was one direction, which also made Nake not dare to look down upon the ruler of the City of Bright Moon.

After talking about the whimsical alchemy machines mentioned above, Nacker felt that Luoren had mentioned some ideas with great potential for realization.

For example, the alchemy tiller and planter used to cultivate the land, the alchemical quarrying machine and excavator used to mine the ore...

But among these ideas, the easiest to forge is an offensive weapon—the fully automatic alchemy continuous crossbow.

Loren wanted an alchemy crossbow that could store a large number of arrows and fired continuously by pulling the trigger when needed.

When the crossbow arrow is finished, you can directly replace the crossbow quill for the second round of shooting.

Originally, he thought this weapon was very difficult, but he didn't expect Nacker to think its manufacturing technology was relatively simple.

There are more than ten kinds of design schemes for crossbow arrows. He even knows how to make magic crossbow arrows.

You only need to take out those knowledge reserves to make certain fusion changes, and increase the crossbow quiver.

The only regret is that the alchemy crossbow created may have become even larger.

At that time, two people are required to operate.

The solo person told by Lawren is in his pocket. There is a gap between UU's idea of ​​shooting at any time when he wants to read www.uukanshu.com.

However, Nacker believes that it is not impossible to improve in the later stage. It is only necessary to reduce the scale, reduce the power, and use higher-level elements to drive it. It is also feasible...

Loren didn't expect that, he just talked to Nake with a bit of tentative thoughts and got a few surprises for him.

In particular, the alchemy Liannuak promised to be able to make it within 20 days made him feel better.

He originally thought it would take a long time to produce the alchemy machine he wanted, but he didn't expect such a surprise.

If the alchemy continuous crossbow is being produced, the scene will be extremely spectacular by then.

Thousands of alchemy crossbows were placed on the city wall. When the enemy approached, the soldiers who defended the city didn't have to fight melee. They just mounted the crossbow on the city wall. Fire and shoot, and the enemy was killed like cutting wheat... ...

Thinking of this scene, his face couldn't help but smile.
