Extraordinary Mechanical City

Is there a city ruins ahead?

Yes, the area of ​​a large town is preliminarily estimated. But also because of our arrival, it also attracted a large number of skeleton monsters. But the problem is not big, and there is no troublesome existence for the time being. Captain Rhine and General Baron are currently Clean up, the fighting should be over soon.

.

After the assassin reported, he continued to participate in the battle.

Having a complete city means having a complete civilization, and maybe there are other gains.

When Toust heard the news, he couldn't wait to run forward, Haha, let me just say, ancient goblins like to live in mines! There are so many skeletons underground, they must not all be miners, there should be cities .Now that the city is discovered, there must be a large smelter and forge somewhere!

He couldn't wait, and said as he walked, Boy Ren, I'll go help first, take your time!

With that said, all the combatants followed suit.

Only Ren and Ymir were left in the mine looking at each other.

They looked at each other and smiled, and walked towards the direction of the movement.

After walking about tens of meters, the field of vision suddenly opened up.

The mage's illumination technique illuminated the entire underground city.

This is a huge underground city with a space height of more than one hundred meters. The buildings are built on the rock walls, and the small mushroom-shaped houses are a bit like the European medieval castles in Rennes' previous life. All the buildings are piled up of stones, small domes, and cross windows. Part of it collapsed due to the years, leaving behind traces of time erosion. But it can still be imagined that tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of goblins were active here countless years ago, and it was prosperous.

When Ren and the others walked over, the battle was fierce.

Mr. Toust joined the battlefield impatiently. His six-armed mech pretended to be a bulldozer, and rushed straight into the crowd of skeletons. Each of the six robotic arms holds a knife shield, swinging them like a big windmill, and harvesting these small and fragile skeleton bones

It's a one-sided battle.

Compared with the previous rattan armored skeletons, the combat power of these goblins is too low. The attack method is still very simple, and they surrounded them with shields and some short weapons.

For this group of fifth-order extraordinary, there is almost no threat.

There was no need for Ymir to make a move, Toust and the group of high-level transcendents had already chopped those little skeletons to pieces.

The sound of cracking bones shattering resounded through the entire underground space, crisp and sweet.

Obviously, there is no such legendary level skeleton monster in this city, not even a skeleton monster with normal fifth-level strength. Everyone has no pressure at all, chopping melons and vegetables for a meal.

After leaving the mine, he could finally stand upright, Ren felt extremely relaxed, and let out a deep breath.

Ymir: Ren, let's go, let's go down and have a look.

The mine they were in was on the rock wall, and the steps under their feet were directly cut out of the rock. Part of it collapsed and looked a bit.

After walking a few steps, the two found several broken clay pots on the steps. The slit is very new, and I think it was probably kicked by someone who passed by before.

Taking a closer look, there are probably dozens of golden pocket gold coins inside, about the size of a fingernail.

Ren picked up one and took a look. There was a clear head portrait of a creature with sharp ears printed on it, and he whispered: Hey, so the 'goblin' looks like this.

The skeleton is one thing, what it actually looks like is another. Looking at the big head skeleton before, Ren still restored the image of aliens in his mind. Now it seems that there is a slight difference.

Ymir glanced at it, and was not surprised, It's almost as expected.

Ren and Ymir also went down to help clean up the battlefield. This kind of small skeleton with high rank and weak strength, as long as it avoids the shield, even Ren can break it.

The battle lasted for half an hour, and the number of skeleton monsters running out of the mines extending in all directions became less and less.

In the square of the ruins of the city, the bones were piled up like tens of thousands.

Master Toust's mecha alone probably killed 80% of this crowd tactics, and it was the best slaughterhouse for a mechanic's mecha.

Hahaha, these goblins are almost equipped with shields as standard! There are probably thousands of shields.

There are still many well-forged weapons, but they are a little smaller.

Big guys, look for the nearby mines, there must be ore warehouses and steelmaking furnaces.

.

There was no threat in the city, and the high-ranking fighters Captain Rhine and General Baron led their respective teams to drill into the well-connected mines connecting the city, intending to explore other areas.

Mr. Toust got down from the control cabin of the six-armed mecha, and he ignored the shields buried in the skeleton team, since they were already in his pocket anyway.

He walked quickly to the goblin town, and got into the goblin hut with a low lintel. He didn't seem to see the two of Renn not far away.

Ren looked at Toust's bewildered state, but he was used to it.

A master-level mechanic with an old problem.

When they encounter a thought that fascinates them, they can forget the people around them in an instant.

Bazel looked at Ren and Ymir together, and they disappeared long ago. And Ymir's personal guards are also very knowledgeable, no one will be the light bulb.

Looking at it, there were only two of Renn alone left.

He looked at the eldest princess beside him, and suggested, Let's go, let's go see this ruin too.

Ymir nodded with a smile.

The buildings in this goblin city are small, but not all.

There are still some large special rooms like prayer rooms, workshops, warehouses, alchemy labs, etc.

Mr. Toust is also very knowledgeable, he directly drilled into a workshop that seemed to be very large in scale.

But not long after entering, I heard a heartbroken scream, Ah!

Ren's face changed suddenly when he heard it, thinking that the old man was in some danger. As soon as he spoke, he and Ymir rushed up like lightning.

Looking at it, Toust in the room was holding a blueprint in his hand, with a look of tears on his face.

This is a workshop like a mechanical laboratory, with strangely shaped lamps overhead. The operating table is filled with all kinds of mechanical tools. There are many large and small grids on the surrounding walls, and there are many materials, small mechanical parts, animal skin scrolls and books in the grids.

On the workbench, there were still some unrolled sheepskin rolls and a semi-finished machine.

Looks like a mechanical iron boot?

The first time Ren and two entered the room, they also noticed the visible color change of these sheepskin rolls. No, everything around is changing. Slowly turning from brown to black, it looked as if it would soon turn into ashes and rot away.

Mr. Toust looked sad, and said: Ah, I shouldn't have opened this door! Damn it, these drawings are too old to withstand any damage.

But this is also Schrödinger's scroll. If you don't open this door, you will never know what is in the room.

Now that the decay is irreversible, nothing else will help.

Moreover, at a glance, it is a very precise drawing, which is full of various geometric figures and labels, densely packed. The speed of decay is so fast that there is no time to memorize and transcribe.

Ren glanced away, but the brain automatically sounded a reminder.

【Ding! An unknown 'engineering blueprint' was found, and the system is automatically scanning the record.]

Goblin civilization is the founder of 'alchemy' and 'engineering', they are truly great inventors Oh, damn it, what a stupid thing I did.

While blaming himself, the old man scanned the scroll with lightning-like eyes, trying to write down part of the content on the drawing.

But this drawing is too complicated!

There are too many complex and precise data, and too many explanations of goblin characters that I don't know, so I can't remember them at all.

Oh my god, this feels so bad! The great 'God of Steam' gave me a chance to see mechanical truth and I let it slip away

Seeing such a precious ancient goblin technology blueprint decaying in front of his eyes, Toust felt blood dripping from his heart and wailed endlessly.

And just when he felt that he was going to miss the treasures left by the goblin civilization, suddenly, someone spoke.

Grandpa Tuste, I have the ability of photographic memory. You help me unfold these blueprints in front of my eyes. I can remember them after reading them. Maybe I can copy them from memory when I go back.

Turning around, I saw the two of Renn entering the room.

real?

Toust asked instinctively, as if grasping the last straw, his eyes froze.

Ren nodded, Yeah.

Hearing the response, Toust showed ecstasy.

He didn't have time to think about whether this was reasonable, but he was even more slow in his hands, and quickly spread out the blueprint, facing Ren. And the eight mechanical arms on his back helped him pick up the drawing of the animal skin scroll on the table, and unfolded it in front of Ren.

As soon as the drawings were unfolded, Toust heaved a sigh of relief, but the look of anticipation that flashed on his face just now dimmed instantly.

Although he had also heard that some superhumans had the ability of photographic memory, it was also for some simple books. And definitely not including this extremely high-precision goblin engineering blueprint!

Hey, I hope Kid Ryan can remember more than this old bone of mine.

Toust thought dejectedly.

The mechanical arm helped unfold a roll of animal skin design drawings. The old man wanted to let Renn see clearly, so he moved closer.

But Ryan said, no need!

Write it down, Grandpa Toust, change it!

At this time, there is no need to hide clumsiness, because the speed of decay is already accelerating at this time, Renn said very quickly: Grandpa Toust, it can be faster, I can remember it. If it is slower, those blueprints It's going to rot!

Really remember?

Toust's face was full of surprise, and a flash of disbelief flashed in his heart.

He even felt that the focus of Ren's eyeballs was not aligned with the blueprint, how did he write it down?

But at this moment, the urgent situation did not give him time to think about this question at all.

The old man looked at the decayed and blackened blueprints on the table, his cheeks twitched violently, and without saying a word of nonsense, the eight mechanical arms and two hands got busy at the same time, and spread out the blueprints one by one.

Ren's gaze was also very fast. Once the scroll was unfolded, he glanced at it and said immediately.

Write it down, next one!

Next one!

.

With this efficiency, even if Toust has ten hands, he seems to be in a hurry.

Ymir at the side saw this, but didn't say a word, and silently came to help. She helped move scrolls, books, and everything with written records from farther in the house. And the ones in the lockers and treasure chests were all taken out and handed to Toust's ten arms.

Toust multitasked, and his ten arms spread wildly.

And Ren is like a personal camera, with his eyes flickering frequently, scanning all kinds of drawings one by one.

You can change it when you unfold it!

I remember it! Come on, it's going to rot.

Yes! Large drawings and loose rolls are preferred

.

The speed at which Mr. Toust spread out the blueprints was already dazzling.

None of the three people in the room said a word of nonsense, they were too busy. There were only bursts of cracking sound of flipping books in the whole room.

After being so busy for a few minutes, finally, all the things swept away in the room have become as black as coke, and turned into ashes with a light touch.

After all, there was still a small pile of scrolls that had not been read in time and disappeared completely.

However, Rennes has already recorded hundreds of design drawings in his mind. Although I can't understand the engineering design drawings, the intelligent brain can roughly distinguish the functions of those strange mechanical shapes.

[Drawings of iron boots with rockets installed], [Drawings of mechanical belts with booster function], [Strange devices that seem to be teleporters], [Goblin grenades], [Drawings of suspected communication equipment].

A series of exquisite design drawings, those goblin inventions with exaggerated shapes. The door to the new world has opened, this is the real black technology of the mythical civilization period!

Don't look at the civilization of this world for hundreds of millions of years, but civilizations have been broken time and time again.

Civilizations have also repeatedly staged the process of budding, rising, extreme victory, and decline.

Nowadays, many technologies are not necessarily better than ancient civilizations. Moreover, they are like various branches on the technology tree, and the directions of the points are different.

It's like the steam machinery that people depend on most for survival in this ice ridge wasteland, and it's all the remnants of archaeological civilization in a certain era. After thousands of years, it has developed to the present level.

Who knows how many lost and extinct super-era black technologies are hidden in those goblin blueprints just now!

call

Ryan went through those blueprints quickly in his mind, let out a long breath, and it took him a long time to calm down.

Toust sighed as he looked at the rolls of completely decayed blueprints in his hand.

Then, a last glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes, and he asked expectantly, Ren, how much do you remember?

Ren pretended to think for a moment, and said, Eight or ninety percent.

He didn't dare to talk too much, for fear of being regarded as a monster.

And hearing this, Toust didn't care how he wrote it down at all, but his eyes burst into joy, and he confirmed: Eighty to ninety percent?!

Originally, he thought that it would be a good achievement to see it so quickly, but it was eighty to ninety percent, which was a big surprise!

Ren nodded, not wanting to extinguish the flame of hope of the old man, and said: Well! My memory is not bad. After I go out and copy it, I should be able to restore most of the design drawings.

real?!

Tuster thought of something, and then suddenly realized, and said: No wonder Irubek said before that you can memorize the Encyclopedia of Basic Pharmacy backwards, so it is true! Oh, my God, the 'God of Steam' favor .Let you have such a magical memory ability.

Basic Encyclopedia of Pharmacy?

Hearing this, even Ymir showed a strange look. She remembered seeing it in the Royal Library, a stack of boring medical tomes taller than her.

But then, thinking about the feat of Rennes translating the common language of the dark faction on the wreckage of the airship all afternoon, he suddenly became less surprised.

Rescuing a room of blueprints before they decayed, the three of them seemed to have experienced a fierce victory, and their expressions relaxed.

Mr. Toust looked at the expressions of Ren and Ren, thinking that they didn't know the significance of these drawings, and explained: You may not know that the gunpowder, muskets, and artillery we use now. In fact, the earliest records were in the ancient goblin civilization. Medium! They are the truly great inventors”

correct!

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, looked at Ren, and asked anxiously: In those drawings just now, I seem to have seen the design of a cannon. Ren, did you remember it?

Write it down.

Ren nodded, and a blueprint had already appeared in his retina.

It was a cannon with complicated magic carvings on it.

Oh! It would be so nice to remember!

Toust looked like he had found a treasure, and said excitedly: Do you remember that we saw a damaged magic cannon on the wreckage of the airship before? That kind of thing is said to be created by goblin engineers! The previous one The blueprint is most likely a blueprint of an ancient 'magic cannon'!

When Ymir heard this, his expression turned serious. Only then did I realize that the significance of those drawings might be beyond imagination.

Hearing Toust's words, she instinctively turned her gaze to Ren, her expression seemed to speak: You must remember.

Ren watched the two of them look at him with strange anticipation, his eyelids twitched, and he responded, It just so happens that I remember that picture better.

Didn't talk much, but at this moment Toust slapped his head suddenly and thought of something: Ren, can you remember more?

Ren also guessed why the old man asked this, and said, Yes. My memory is not bad.

Come with me!

Toust didn't care about anything, pulled him and ran out the door: We have to hurry, we are entering the city now. Even if we don't open the door, everything here is decaying at an accelerated rate. If we go later, those 'babies' may be It's decayed. Goblins are born 'engineers', and there must be more and more precise drawings in these houses.

Oh! I almost forgot, they are still the origin civilization of 'alchemy'! There must be many inheritances of ancient alchemy.

Oh my God, I'm almost suffocating with excitement

Make up for yesterday's.
