Oracle of Terra

As long as we continue to work hard, the oppression of this land will be liberated sooner or later.

96. Artisans and blacksmiths

—A declaration that shook Ursus, Duke of the Infested.

"Is Your Majesty crazy?"

"Infected, actually infected?!"

Discussions like this have been brought up by nobles of all sizes, but when the achievements of the infected girl named Tallulah Atrias were made public, apart from being shocked by her identity and the honor she received, everyone was shocked. Her strength created fear.

The invasion of the wizards of Letania turned nearly [-]% of Sochi's population into terrifying monsters. This can be called a humiliating tragedy in the modern history of the empire, but the infection named Tallulah But the young girl liberated Sochi, defeated the wizard in the tower, and became a well-known "hero" in the country of Ursas.

A national hero with a great reputation, even awarded meritorious service by the emperor of Ursas, not to mention, her prestige among the infected is also at the height of the day, almost all the infected in Ursas know that Sochi has a The Duke of the Infected, and Sochi, is a city that can accept the Infected.

This ruined city needs more labor. After many considerations, Emperor Feordo considered Tallulah's appeal as the leader of the infected, and also wanted to see the leader's ability. Only then did she choose to make her the Duke of Sochi.

Although the current population of Sochi is less than [-] including the people gathered from Chernobog and surrounding nomadic settlements, the people working in the city are also full of vigor.

As for our protagonist Telles, he was busy with his subordinates in the workshop in Sochi for many years.

"Cool!"

There are only lonely men and widows in the huge workshop, and Telles stroked something like a lover with a ruddy complexion.

The huge iron cone was propelled by the steam, piercing through the 5 cm thick steel plate in front of him.

Telles recalled a steampunk work that beat zombies in his previous life, so he considered the idea of ​​using steam power to make propelled air guns.

Of course, in the eyes of the year, this kind of primitive power weapon is really not on the table, but the sound of steam bursting and the rotation and advancement of the mechanical structure are indeed just like what Telles just howled.

"It's really cool, but don't you want to make industrial products that sell money? No matter how you look at this thing, it looks like a toy, right?"

Not to mention that compared to the strong crossbow, this steam weapon is too bulky and troublesome to carry, but it can be seen in the year that Telles wants to imitate the guardian gun. Some time ago he was tinkering with those 'gunpowder' and the teacher exploded It made him very distressed, so he was considering using other power as the firing part in the past two days.

The result is a steam-propelled spear.

Telles calls it a 'pile driver'.

"Let me say it first, maybe it was a cross-generational invention when you tinkered with this thing back then, but now your thing is not as good as the power hammer of the girl from Mudstone."

"It's really shocking, I am the man who wants to change the history of Terra!"

"You have already changed, so don't change it again."

Nian helplessly complained about this guy who has been devoting himself to the development of industrial equipment since Sochi got on the right track. The rags he fiddled with next to him can be said to be piles after piles, and occasionally he can come up with some functions. There is a more perfect substitute for the things used in the market, Origin Stone Power.

After the revolution caused by the origin stone technology, the products of origin stone power are all over Terra. Even if Telles wants to use the cutting-edge power now, it is impossible to replace the current position of origin stone power. After all, there are such things as origin stone everywhere. And it is very good to supplement, even as an energy source, the lifespan is extremely long, and even the warlock itself can be used as a power source to provide energy for the origin stone equipment.

It is simply the best choice for home travel, killing people and stealing goods, and because of the versatility of origin stone energy, electricity or other energy supplies themselves have become a minority, although using origin stone represents the risk of infection, but sometimes Convenience makes people subconsciously ignore this.

What?Are you infected?That's fine.

"I couldn't make a steam engine at that time, but now I can only use it as a toy. In the year, can it be miniaturized?"

"Although I am a god of forging and smelting, do you think that I am too omnipotent?"

Nian looked at this guy speechlessly. Since following him, she seems to have become a lot more diligent. Some time ago, the reward for processing armor all night was a bowl of Telles handmade spicy hot pot. I have to say , the taste is really a little bit meaningless.

"Nian A dream, quickly rub a nuclear bomb and dominate the world."

"Although I don't know what the nuclear bomb you are talking about is, my instinct tells me that the thing you are talking about is definitely not a good thing."

"How come, this thing has led to world peace."

Telles didn't lie. After all, everyone has a weapon that can level the opposite side. No one will act rashly, because whoever moves will suffer.

But Telles is just talking. To be honest, the form of war in the Terra continent is very distorted. It obviously has such a powerful technology as a mobile city, but the battle is still a confrontation between the two armies. The difference is that the bed crossbow has been replaced by a spell cannon. To be honest, there is no progress at all. It was so thousands of years ago, and it is still the same now.

Oh yes, there are also those drones that will be bombarded by bows and spells. Telles almost forgot that there is magic in this land.

To be honest, at first he thought that after sleeping for thousands of years, there would be magic technology or something, but to be honest, it was very crooked, why did everyone use the origin stone in the end.

There is no innovation at all, no matter what industrial technology and research development is carried out around Originium, Originium cannon, Originium table lamp, Originium locomotive.

"Is the origin stone the only thing that this land depends on for survival? It's ridiculous."

"It's so ridiculous. It is because of the abuse of origin stones that the frequent occurrence of ore diseases is caused. In order to mine origin stones for energy use, more people are infected with diseases, and then those who are infected are abandoned, or let them live in the mine. Going on from generation to generation, you and that little girl Drake persisted until now just to change these things, didn't you... Wait?"

Nian seemed to think of something, "You want to develop new energy sources, isn't it because you want to replace the original energy sources?"

"It's just a try, and there will be no loss of meat, maybe I will become it."

"Why are you acting so enthusiastically for those infected people?"

"For a promise, it's like you want to ask me for your brother and sister."

"That's right, then I will continue to accompany you to tinker with these things that are far from being innovative. To be honest, you don't plan to consider reducing the harm caused by Originium, or making some powerful filtering devices?"

"Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, instead of reducing the infection rate of the Origin Stone, it is better to find a way to directly replace the Origin Stone."

"But the road has to be taken step by step. If you are so extravagant and wasteful, even if Sochi has abundant resources now, it can't afford you to toss around like this. You are no longer a tyrant who acts willfully, but someone else's subordinate."

"........."

Hearing Nian's words, Telles also stopped what he was doing and sat on the bench.

"Then tell me, big blacksmith, give me some advice?"

"Since you don't plan to consider filtering devices, at least fulfill what you said to that Drake girl and bring new specialties and handicrafts to Sochi. The original locals are only a few hundred people, and you can't count on them Everyone makes local crafts, right?"

"It's better to say that local handicrafts are almost lost, and we need to develop some special products to increase the commercial value of Sochi. At present, the introduction of population is still unbearable. If we continue, we must at least make Sochi, a city of infected people, accessible. Infected people will move forward under the circumstances."

"Isn't that a bit difficult? How about saying that apart from the Longmen people you are familiar with, almost only infected people will come to this city?"

"Indeed, most of the new labor force entering Sochi are infected people. Ordinary people only account for a very small part, and some people are even dissatisfied with the majority of infected people. They are all local chickens and dogs, not worth mentioning."

"But the contradiction still exists, Telles, you should understand that sooner or later, the contradiction will explode."

"That's not something I worry about. The leader of Sochi is Talula. I am a craftsman. Although I will advise her as a staff member, it is the general direction. She is the leader of the infected, so we must try to infect her. Since she wants to bring fairness and justice to this land, then this city should become that embodiment, otherwise even the disturbances in a city cannot be solved, how can the suffering of this land be saved? By?"

"Sometimes the tone and the way you speak is quite the same as before."

Nian looked at Telles who put on a serious face, and sighed, "If you are always so serious, you should be quite popular."

"What should I mean? I'm already popular. Now Sarkaz is a symbol of a hero in Sochi. Our Miss Drake is much inferior."

"Uh... Speaking of Sarkaz, I really couldn't imagine that a group of Sarkaz mercenaries honestly patrolling the streets and acting as police officers would be so strange."

Since Sochi was rebuilt, the Sarkaz mercenaries were split into the newly established Sochi City Police Department in Herag. As for whether the former general of Ursus came to a mobile city as a police chief, it is a bit overkill, but look at those The veterans were in full swing, and Telles couldn't complain.

"You just take it as their temporary duty, and if the prejudice against Sarkaz no longer exists in this city, that's a good thing."

"Is it a good thing?"

Looking at Telles who continued to make parts in [-], he recalled the rejuvenated children on the street, and even the ordinary children who played with the children of the infected. , coupled with the specific medicines distributed by Telles, the immediate effect made the local residents of Sochi a lot more stable, coupled with the prestige of Tallulah himself in Sochi, this city is really Started to move towards the country that used to be Telles.

Of course, the nature is slightly different.

Kazdel of Telles is a kingdom built around him, and the revived city of Sochi is a revived city built around Tallulah's ideas.

Telles knows the tragic consequences of placing everything on an individual. The current Kazdel is the best example, but the current peaceful coexistence between the infected and ordinary people is still based on various coincidences. With part of Telles' strength, if medical organizations can be found to cooperate in the development of new drugs, Telles intends to donate some strength to let them research and study under reliable circumstances.

The premise is that they will not covet the power of God.

"Boss Telles!"

"Ah? What are you shouting about?"

Listening to the voices from outside and the Sarkaz rushing in, although Telles didn't know why he became the boss inexplicably, W was still called the boss by these Sarkaz, although this Miss Bomber is indeed not very suitable to be the boss.

Oh, after the Sarkaz and the old Wendigo were incorporated into the police department by them, Ms. W has indeed become a veritable commander-in-chief. Her current job is probably to blast some dangerous buildings every day. The residents thanked and the somewhat impatient W really made Telles feel happy watching.

Although this nature may be a bit harsh, but seeing Sarkaz like that, he really couldn't help but want to bully the other party. The most important thing is the reaction like blowing hair is very interesting.

"Boss Telles, your smile is scary."

"Ahem, anyway, let the fart go, I'm busy."

"Actually, it's not a big deal, but isn't our mudstone team incorporated into the construction team?"

"architecture?"

Telles recalled that most of what these hammer men did on the construction site seemed to be demolition work.

"It seems to be the case, and then?"

"When we were demolishing a dangerous building, W had a dispute with us. In the end, she got into a fight with some of our brothers and ran away. You know, that crazy woman is very dangerous. If she does it Something dangerous may cause trouble for everyone in the current state of revival."

"Then why are you looking for me?"

"Talulah said that you are the best at finding missing persons in Terra."

"......................"

Listening to the hammer man's description, Taila always felt a little uncomfortable.

Obviously what he said seems to be true, but he always feels like he is a tool for missing persons?

Well, Tallulah, seeing that she can't be liberated from the document hell, she will find a job for a busy man like him, right?

"Okay, I'll take over."

"Then trouble the boss, I still have to work on the construction site, so don't bother me."

"Go away, go away."

That Sarkaz showed a simple smile, while Telles showed a happy expression.

"You look happy?"

"How come, I didn't think about bullying that girl W to relax."

"................."

Nian didn't know how to evaluate this god of Sarkaz, but it was really shameless to bully a young girl.

Like her, she will only bully her own brothers and sisters.

"Then the workshop will be handed over to you temporarily, and I look forward to the Sochi specialties made by the great blacksmith."

"You're planning to throw it all at me..."

Sighing helplessly, Nian hit the anvil with his iron rod.

"It's annoying."

Go back and secretly add some condiments to this guy's wine.

Nian, who decided to take stingy revenge, decided to go to Yelena for some candy research in a few days.

As for the special person, he hurriedly used prophecy to find the other Sarkaz mercenary.

97. History Teacher Telles

No matter this guy or that guy, they are all smiling, they are Sarkaz?

"You have a gloomy expression, just like a single dog at Christmas when he sees couples all over the place."

Hearing the sound coming from the crack in the wall, W threw a piece of Originium Dynamite with a jerking backhand, but unfortunately, his wrist was firmly grabbed by someone who broke through the wooden board before he could make the shot.

"Your overreaction is really scary, W, your backhand is like a bomb."

"You are the one who is scary, speaking from behind others suddenly."

Hiding in a deserted alley, W still had some bruises on her face, which were the wounds after she wrestled with Sarkaz from the mudstone team.

"let me go."

"Okay, so why did you fight with the Mudrock people?"

"It's not uncommon for Sarkaz to fight. I just can't see their silly expressions. The Ursus talking there doesn't look like Sarkaz."

"The reason for your dissatisfaction makes me feel a bit... strange?"

Telles decided not to use any irritating words to say W. Although he is better at secretly teasing people's mentality, and he also likes to bully this crazy little Sarkaz girl, but in essence, he is still the warm-hearted and kind-hearted brother Art. .

"Then I want to ask, W, what does Sarkaz look like to you?"

"Brutal, intimidating and alienating."
