Data Wasteland - chapter 948 Industry
In the evening, Chen Xing entered the Hongyan volcanic area. But instead of rushing on the road, he took out camping tools from the storage space, set up a tent, and cooked dinner for himself.
Although he now has lord-level strength, he still encounters danger when he goes on his way at night. For safety’s sake, we will leave at dawn.
On the way here, while there was a satellite signal, he made a video call to Triliss and Guihu, telling them that he was working outside and it would take a few days to go back. Lest the other party is worried, come out and look for him.
Chen Xing skillfully lit a kerosene lamp, boiled himself a cup of boiling water, and ate another pack of Sifeis’ top self-heating military rations.
Since his rise in status, he has not been sleeping in the wild for a long time. Even if there are, there are a large number of people serving in the barracks.
Sitting alone on the top of the mountain to eat like this, looking at the sky full of stars in a daze, I haven’t experienced it for a long time.
After resting for a while, he packed up his things and sank his consciousness into the realm.
As soon as he entered Linghai, he was taken aback. Goblin Island, which was originally backward and primitive, has completely changed its appearance.
The rag tent was replaced by a small wooden house. Although it was built with goblin characteristics-it was sloping around, but compared with the dilapidated and pierced tent, it was already advanced and I don’t know how much.
In the goblin factory in the distance, the chimney is high and the steam is permeated, and there is the sound of “screaming” when the steam engine is operating.
After a brief astonishment, Chen Xing quickly found the reason for the change. After all, he is the master of this field, and all the plants here are under his control.
The chief goblin engineer in the factory manager’s office quickly established a spiritual link with him and reported to their Wang.
Cut wood to produce heat and provide power for steam factories.
The first batch of musketeers has been shipped and equipped for the first batch of goblin spearmen.
Chen Xing’s consciousness shifted to goblin throwers equipped with new weapons. No, to be precise, they had thrown away the backward throwing spears and equipped with flintlock spears.
The flintlock rifle is the first mass-produced firearm of mankind. The barrel adopts a smooth-bore design. Before firing, the gunpowder is poured into the barrel, compacted with a bamboo stick, and then fired by igniting the line of fire.
After several minutes of preparation, goblin muskets are filled with gunpowder and stand in a row/shoot. Several goblins in the middle used too much force in the process of compacting the gunpowder, which caused the barrel to explode and died on the spot. During the shooting, a few more goblins exploded due to various circumstances.
Although non-combat damage is as high as 10%, when the goblin volley fires, it is still very imposing.
At this moment, Chen Xing suddenly blessed his soul, thinking that since goblins can use flintlock muskets, why can’t they use more modern weapons?
Thinking of this, he immediately used psionic realization. Xingsha gathered into an assault rifle and landed beside a Goblin Musketeer.
The Goblin Musketeer glanced at the sky and realized that this was a gift from the king, so he put down his musket and picked up the assault rifle.
“Crack, crack, Gera!”
After some fiddling, the Goblin Musketeer grabbed the barrel and excitedly shouted to the sky: “Hala!”
Then he stretched his thin arms and smashed the **** to the ground.
Chen Xing covered his forehead. It was obvious that the other party thought it was a stick used to hit people.
It is really difficult for goblins to use modern assault rifles. Not to mention whether they will use them or not. With their short and thin arms, they can’t make effective gun-holding movements.
So Chen Xing tried to realize a pistol with psionic energy.
However, after some observation, the goblin still couldn’t use it, and in the end the pistol was used as a stone for throwing.
Then Chen Xing experimented with other weapons, such as six-barreled Vulcan cannon, rockets, grenade, etc. Goblins would not use them at all.
Where is the problem?
Chen Xing couldn’t help thinking, why goblins can use flintlock rifles but not modern weapons?
Is it because goblins have low IQ?
It doesn’t look like it. Airplanes can be made. Although they are wooden airplanes, they are also airplanes. At least they must have basic aerodynamics.
Even if you can build airplanes and tanks, you can’t shoot?
What’s the reason for that?
Chen Xing used the method of elimination and finally reached a conclusion.
Goblin flintlocks are produced by the goblin factory, while modern weapons are manifested by the host.
There is a fundamental difference between the two.
Chen Xing changed his mind and immediately found the chief goblin engineer to understand the technology he mastered.
After some exchanges, Chen Xing understood.
The technology provided by the mechanical designer monocles obtained from the “steam era” only stays in the “steam revolution” period.
In other words, there is no higher technology than a steam engine in the wisdom gained by goblin engineers through glasses.
The civilization of this steam age seems to be a bit crooked in the science and technology tree.
The human beings on the earth, as well as the human beings in the red earth world, are step by step from primitive society, agricultural society, to the steam revolution, the electrical revolution, and then to the information revolution.
Because the mankind in the red earth world experienced cataclysm and later psychic recovery, they passed the fourth industrial revolution “quantum revolution” and directly entered the fifth industrial revolution-space revolution.
In the world of the “Era of Steam”, the technological development of the steam revolution ceased, and instead began to study mysticism, introducing supernatural powers into steam technology.
For example, the technology of mechanical monsters and rune circuits is equivalent to surpassing the “electric revolution” and the “information revolution” and directly entering the “spatial revolution”.
Due to too many jumps, the technology is not developed enough.
Therefore, the chief goblin engineer who inherited the wisdom of mechanical designers must stop at the steam age in science and technology.
However, in the steam age, very good firearms have been developed, such as revolvers.
Thinking of this, Chen Xing suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he withdrew his consciousness from Linghai.
In a blink of an eye, a large revolver with golden light appeared in front of him.
I saw him holding the gun body in one hand and lifting his palm with the other.
Aura appeared in the palm, and then shot out.
“drink!”
The palm of the hand slapped the gun, and the large golden revolver suddenly turned into sand in the sky, and then gathered into a group and flew into the cracks in the space.
After a while, a large golden revolver appeared on the desk of the chief Goblin engineer.
“Hala!”
It yelled in excitement, and began to disassemble the revolver, disassembled into parts one by one, placed them on the table one by one, then picked up paper and pen, ruler and compasses, and drew drawings frantically.
The revolver and magic craftsmanship are the best techniques in the steam era.
