Age of Mysticism - Chapter 450
Chapter 450 The Gods started construction
Luke’s words had an unprecedented impact on Storm Cato.
When he arrived at the holy mountain from the tribe’s mountain, although he felt that the holy mountain was extremely prosperous, it was still within his acceptable range. But when he came to Raging Waves City, he found that this was a completely different world. The abundance here is beyond his imagination of abundance, and the prosperity here is beyond his perception of prosperity.
He couldn’t understand at all how it was possible for so many people to live in a city. And the clothes they wear and the food they eat are so exquisite, and it’s unbelievable that everyone seems to be literate.
These are things that nobles are entitled to enjoy, and they are the daily life of every citizen in Raging Waves City.
The Celtic dukes who blocked industry from entering the Tedgar Hills were preventing the lower barbarians from having them?
If he hadn’t come to Rage City, Storm Cato would have absolutely trusted what Duke Celtic said. The facts he saw now made Storm Cato question what he had always believed in.
“Mr. Luke… No, Lord Governor Meteor. I, I’m sorry… My mind is messed up and I said something that I don’t know right or wrong. Please forgive me.”
Luke said with a smile: “Some sages said: Facts speak louder than words. I asked Kailina to add your name to this literacy training class of Yanyang Technical School. Go to class tonight!”
Naco goes too. ”
Coconut stared at her nose and asked, “I, do I want to go to class too? Can I not go?”
“No! If you can’t graduate from the literacy training class, you can continue to the next training class. I don’t raise people with only muscles but no brains. Of course, you really have innate intelligence problems, and your teacher will tell me.”
Coconut seems to have lost all strength: “Okay, I will try my best…”
Storm Cato saluted Luke very gratefully: “Thank you, my lord!”
The shower outside stopped at some point, the dark clouds quickly dispersed, and the bright sun shone down, illuminating the room through the floor-to-ceiling glass windows.
Luke looked at the weather outside, and said to the coconut: “Go to Kailinna, let’s go to the Haijiao District Machinery Factory.”
“Yes, my lord!”
Coconut is very active about going out to play, and ran to find Kailinna.
Luke stood up, and Cato brought him the coat and hat on the hanger.
Luke put on his clothes, picked up his cane, and said to Storm Cato: “Come with me to the Cape Machinery Factory.”
“Yes, my lord!”
The governor is going out, and the guard team is dispatched immediately.
In addition to the Governor’s Palace Guard and Secret Service Ranger, Sandpaper’s Pretty Girl Boiling Squad is also Luke’s close guard.
As Luke’s status in the empire became higher and higher, the assassins who came to assassinate him continued one after another. After the assassination of the Shuojin Elder, Luke strengthened his own guard several times. Shelley went to the northern border, and Sandpaper was promoted to the chief servant. The powerful perception and telepathy of the beautiful girls allowed them to solve several assassinations.
The convoy starts.
Sandpaper sat beside Luke and complained in her mechanical voice: “Master Governor, we are really too leisurely during your absence. Every day is not shopping, but beauty and manicure…”
Luke got into the car and was still discussing work matters with Karina, who was sitting in the co-pilot. When he saw Sandpaper admiring his new manicure, he couldn’t help saying kindly: “I know you are very happy to be reunited with your sisters, but don’t waste time. It’s all used for sisterhood, see the dragons flying over the city today?”
“I saw it!” Speaking of the dragon, Sandpaper’s attention was diverted: “This is the first time we saw a dragon, it’s really big! I heard that Miss Clear Sky once killed a dragon, Miss Clear Sky is too powerful. There was news from the imperial capital that Miss Skylight also defeated a very powerful angel.
These dragons going to the imperial capital will only add some high-priced experimental materials to Miss Weathering Sky. ”
Sandpaper and her little sisters worship Clear Sky blindly, without any pressure from Dragon Crossing at all.
Luke wanted to use the dragon to inspire the self-motivation of the sandpaper, but it was obviously ineffective.
Forget it, let Qingkong deal with these girls, Qingkong’s words are more effective than preaching for hours.
“As long as you are happy. I will go to the imperial capital in a few days, and then you will be able to meet Miss Weatherlight.”
“Really? When are we going to the imperial capital?”
“Work hard, we will leave after the matter in Raging Waves City has been dealt with.”
“Master Governor, you can work hard! Come on!”
Really unmotivated child.
At this moment, Karina thought of something, and said: “Master Governor, the Secret Affairs Bureau of Raging Waves City has uncovered an attempted assassination against you today. Because the case is a bit special, Chief Detective Thomas, please give it to me no matter if I make the decision without authorization.” instruct?”
Luke asked: “What is the specific situation?”
Kelina recounted the process of Nightingale and her fellow assassins coming to Rage City and capturing them.
Luke didn’t expect this case to be so dramatic.
Obviously, this was Nightingale’s personal behavior. The assassins she brought should all be ranger friends she knew. If the assassins sent by Prince Alec couldn’t be so unprofessional.
A stable job turned these assassins against them!
“Where is Nightingale now?”
“Because of Miss Nightingale’s special status, the assassination against you was not carried out, and the threat was extremely low. Therefore, Inspector Thomas sent her to Sissai Palace, and Viscount Iscoran took care of her.”
Luke thought about it and said, “Inspector Thomas did a good job in this matter. Since the people in the potion factory broke with Nightingale in the end, if they have no major problems, the Bureau of Secret Affairs should not disturb them.
Nightingale was detained in the Sissai Palace and treated well. Let Viscount Iscoran send someone to send a letter to Prince Alec. If the prince wants someone, he will let Nightingale go. ”
“Yes, Your Excellency Governor. By the way… Nightingale wants to see you.”
Luke said simply: “It’s just a poor woman, there is nothing to see. You go to see her for me, and pass a message to her: I wish her and His Royal Highness Alec happiness.”
“As you order, Your Excellency Governor.”
Luke’s Governor’s Mansion is not far from the cape pier, and it will take a while.
The current Haijiao Harbor has a different look.
After the government affairs department of Raging Waves City decided to rebuild the Cape Harbor, due to the increase in Luke’s position and power, it changed the reconstruction plan several times in a row. Therefore, the rebuilt Haijiao Port bears nearly two-fifths of the throughput of the entire Raging Waves City. With the delivery of supporting infrastructure, the entire Haijiao area is changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
On the wharf of Haijiao Port, a new type of gantry crane is being installed and debugged.
Next to it, there is a large industrial area consisting of a newly built large shipyard and a newly built machinery factory. The factory area is full of towering chimneys, and the white smoke that keeps coming out shows how busy the factory is.
Since Luke dug up orders for war materials for Raging City, the heavy industry in Raging City has basically been working day and night. After the Raging City Fleet and the Raging City Armored Assault Division captured Songta Harbor, the convenience of sea transportation led to a substantial increase in military orders.
The machinery factory of Yanyang Group in Haijiao District has just delivered the first batch of orders for War Fortress, and the second batch has been delivered to the door.
The supplies are sold out in full and full boats, which also stimulates the development of the shipping industry. All-metal warships and all-metal freighters are hot sellers. In order to complete the backlog of orders as soon as possible, led by Yanyang Group Shipping Company and organized by Innovation Society, a Shipbuilding Industry Committee was established in Nutao City to implement overall management of ship production-related factories and enterprises in the city, establish standardization of ships and accessories, and integrate Nutao The city’s shipbuilding potential is squeezed out to the maximum extent.
The war did not have any negative impact on Raging City’s economy. On the contrary, Meteor led Raging City’s bureaucratic system into the center of the empire, making Raging City a more potential investment target.
As the fiefdom of Earl Raging Waves, Haijiao District is the most desirable investment target for all investors.
The once dilapidated and hopeless urban area has been reborn, and will soon become the dual core of the city with the central urban area.
Luke’s popularity in Cape District has reached unprecedented heights. Everyone who sees the Governor’s Palace convoy will spontaneously give way and take off their hats.
It made Luke think a little bit about the days when he led the spies honking the whistle all the way.
Ah… can’t go back!
Luke’s arrival was warmly welcomed by the machinery factory director, the mechanical clan.
Weimeng replaced himself with a new metal body. Although it is not yet fully mechanized, this full-system machinery factory makes him full of hope for the future.
Whammy knew the purpose of Luke’s visit this time, so he took Luke directly into the underground part of the factory. There is a high-end machinery development department in cooperation with the Machinery Factory, Oulu College, and the City Alchemists Association, which gathers the world’s top mechanical experts and technologies.
“We have already disassembled the Titan prototype, and we have to admit that there are many steam mechanical technologies of Art County United that are worthy of our serious research and learning.
According to your instructions, the new Titan development team has made a development plan for two types of Titans.
The technology of the steam-type Titan is very mature. As long as the Mihir Steam Research Institute develops the implosion-type dual-drive steam engine, we will be able to produce a prototype soon.
Magical Titans still have many technical problems…”
Luke and Weigh Meng walked along the underground pipeline, listening to Weme’s report on the progress of various development projects.
“It is enough to maintain the normal development progress of all magical projects. When the technology of element fusion reaction becomes more mature, many problems can be solved easily.
What is the situation of the Gods now? ”
Wumeng opened an iron door for Lu, and inside was a large production workshop. The workshop has the height of ten floors downwards and the same height upwards. The walls around the workshop are covered with steel walkways and train tracks. More than a dozen elevators with different functions shuttle up and down, and countless workers and engineers are busy inside.
The workers below are pouring molten steel from the steel factory into the mold. Magicians are using magic and alchemy to engrave a magic circle on the solidified steel plate.
Arc flash welded steel plates, engineers installed mechanical components and carefully laid pipelines.
In the middle is the steam engine that Luke got from Dongdu.
When Wei Meng saw the thing under construction, his eyes couldn’t help but shine.
“I never thought before that I could preside over the construction of such a great and miraculous fortress.
The Gods… If it flies, it will definitely drive the whole world crazy.
As you can see, my lord, we are laying the keel and bottom hull castings for the Gods. The manufacture of steel ships has trained us excellent workers and engineers, and now everything is being built in an orderly manner according to the drawings you provided.
It’s just that many of the technologies are too advanced, and I’m not sure whether some of the equipment can keep up with the construction progress of the Gods.
It’s… way ahead of its time. ”
The current Gods is the same as the Zumwalt ship. Many technologies have not yet been developed, and the hull is being built immediately.
It’s no wonder that Wei Meng was excited, but also showed a lot of worry.
If the equipment cannot be put in place after the hull is built, it will be more uncomfortable than not building it.
But Luke didn’t have this kind of worry, he was extremely confident in the Gods.
Although the Gods is a little bit ahead, all its technical indicators have been verified by actual ships, which is the biggest difference from the Zumwalt ship.
“Director Wittmann, you must have confidence in the era we live in. After experiencing the first technological blowout caused by the steam engine, the second technological blowout has arrived. In the future, you can imagine what you can’t imagine. The new technology will pour down suddenly like the thunderstorm just now.
What you have to do is to monitor the progress of the construction of the Gods and speed up its construction as much as possible. I don’t want to see new equipment built but have to wait for your construction schedule to appear. ”
Whammy didn’t doubt Luke’s words.
With the in-depth cooperation between the Machinery Factory, Oulu Academy, and the Urban Alchemist Association, the world’s cutting-edge technology possessed by Raging Waves City opened his eyes. Many of the technical problems that their mechanical family found very troublesome were easily solved after they were given to the relevant research institutes.
Strong and almost inexhaustible technical support, let the machine race really feel like a duck to water in the machine factory.
This is an era that can break through the upper limit of people’s imagination, and Wei Meng is full of confidence in the Gods in an instant.
“Please rest assured, Governor…I guarantee that the Gods will be delivered on time according to the construction plan.”
“We must pay close attention to the construction of the Gods. Some of the technologies in it can be used in the development of the next generation of surface ships. Although the Dreadnought class can continue to keep the sea power of Rage City at the forefront, its construction threshold is not high enough.
The battleship of the next generation of Raging City must have certain air combat capabilities. ”
Now confident and mighty, he dares to take on any difficult project: “Obey, Governor, I will tell your instructions to the next-generation capital ship development team of Raging City.”
While Luke and Mighty were chatting about the progress of the construction of the Gods, the storm Cato who followed him stared blankly at the scene in front of him.
Limitation of cognition makes him not know what he is building, but something that requires the cooperation of thousands of people to build must be very, very powerful.
Can Tedgar Hills build something like this?
Obviously not!
Can the Duke of Celtic stop this thing from entering the Tedgar Hills?
Obviously not!
