Extraordinary Mechanical City

Chapter 202 The Magical Metal

Not to mention Udo, even Ren, a local turtle, was the first time he had slept in such a comfortable bed.

Only then did he understand why the "Princess and the Pea" in the fairy tale could clearly feel the tiny peas under those twenty layers of mattresses and twenty eiderdown quilts.

Before Renn went to bed, he thought it was an ordinary goose down bed.

But when he fell asleep, he realized that the luxury of nobles was simply extreme.

His current "five senses" are so sensitive that he can clearly feel a mosquito landing on his skin, so he can feel that there is not even a single knot on the bed sheet or bedding. The ultimate touch, smooth and supple like the worsted skin of a young girl, is definitely not a product of mass production on looms, but was picked out bit by bit with a lot of manpower.

Sleeping on the bed gives people a feeling as if they are trapped in the clouds.

On a rare night, Ren didn't set a training program for the "intelligent brain", so he had a good sleep.

Only then did he realize that in the past two years, it seemed that this was the first time he had slept so peacefully.

In the first year, I worked as a trainee thief in the "Weasel Phantom Thieves", and I lived in fear every day, and my sleep and dreams were always handed over to the "brain" to learn survival skills; even after escaping from the Phantom Thieves, I traveled all the way west and came to Guanghui City, participated in the hunting of the whole people, and then went to the Coleman tribe. I kept running around, and never stopped to enjoy a day's life.

It was finally because of Black Dragon City that he really felt that there was a safe place where he could completely put down his guard and sleep.

This time, I slept very comfortably.

In the early morning, the biological clock wakes up Renn on time.

When they went downstairs, Ymir was already waiting at the dining table.

The breakfast was rich with beautifully made desserts and cheese breads.

Ymir saw Ren, and greeted with a smile: "Ren, come and have breakfast together."

Before the words were finished, the maids at the dining table had pulled away the stools, and Ren was not polite, and sat beside Ymir.

As the host, Ymir naturally cared about the guests, she asked with a smile, "Did you rest well last night?"

Ren said truthfully: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your hospitality. This is the most peaceful sleep I have had in recent years."

Ymir blinked and asked again: "Where's Elder Wudo?"

Ren said: "In the middle of the night last night, she heard the call of the pterosaur. She said that the newly tamed monster should often cultivate feelings together, otherwise it will make the monster feel lonely and all previous efforts will be wasted. Then she was afraid of disturbing your rest, so she went quietly. The animal shed."

He knew that Ymir probably also knew what happened to Udo in his room last night, so he didn't explain much.

Ymir didn't seem to care at all, and nodded: "Oh."

After a pause, she continued: "After breakfast, let's go to inspect the construction of the city together. Although I know you don't want to be too troublesome, at the beginning of the construction, you still have to go there occasionally."

Ren nodded: "Okay."

After a night of carnival, everyone started a new day of work.

Early in the morning the artisans of Orma brought tools and materials to build strong houses for the Coleman warriors.

This is not only a task assigned to them by the Ministry of Urban Construction, but also what they sincerely want to do for these lifesavers. Once the two parties started to contact each other, they both found that the other party was not as difficult to get along with as they imagined.

Coleman literati are simple and kind, and most of the craftsmen are low-level civilians. They don't have any class concept, and they easily mingle.

Although the Colemans are used to the hut, they also know that they have to get used to life in the Mechanic City.

Now the tide of corpses is everywhere, and only in the mechanical city, there is hope for the continuation of tribal civilization.

Watching the craftsmen busy, Coleman soldiers also joined in. They don't know technology, but they don't lack strength. Together they help to carry materials, lift heavy objects, and dismantle old houses. They are united, and within half a day, a row of tribal-style totem steel huts has begun to take shape.

It was already noon when Ren and Ymir finished inspecting the Machinery Department, City Defense Department, Medical Department, Black Dragon Academy... and other departments.

When they came to the shanty town of the Coleman tribe, they were quite surprised when they saw the houses that had begun to take shape. The people of the two departments worked together and broke out amazing work efficiency.

"My lord, Your Royal Highness the Eldest Princess."

Along the way, Ren and Ymir were greeted warmly by the craftsmen and Kallman warriors at work. A bonfire dinner last night made the people in the territory really start to integrate.

The two also responded one by one, and walked all the way.

Finally, they came to the animal shed where the pterosaurs were kept.

Udo was feeding the pterosaurs fed by several Coleman fighters and treating the wounds.

Seeing the two of Renn coming over, the four pterosaurs let out a low and alert growl.

Udo looked back and saw the two, showed a bright smile, and shouted: "Doctor Ren, Your Highness Ymir, you are here!"

She put down the herbal medicine in her hand to wipe the pterosaur's wound, and walked out of the animal shed.

Seeing the bright smiling face in front of him, Ren remembered the barbarian girl who cried so much last night, as if she was not alone.

Ymir looked at these pterosaurs who "would rather die than surrender" yesterday, and said in amazement: "Elder Wuduo, have you tamed them already?"

Udo nodded and said, "Yes. I let the warriors of the tribe try to get in touch with them. After getting familiar with them for a while, they should be able to try riding them."

Ren looked at the pterosaurs who were already willing to let the Coleman fighters touch them, and felt incredible.

Beat me up, is this honest? Wasn't it like a few hedgehogs yesterday, stabbing whoever they saw?

But suddenly, he thought of something and asked, "Hey, there were five heads yesterday, why are there only four?"

Wu Duo blinked, and said with a matter of course: "There is another one that was killed and eaten!"

"ah?"

On the side, Ymir didn't understand Coleman's method of taming animals, and was taken aback.

But Ren thought of something and asked, "Is this also a method of taming animals?"

"yes."

Wu Duo nodded and said: "I told them that if you promise not to make trouble, you will have meat to eat. If you don't agree, you will be eaten as meat. Then there is still a disobedient one that makes the most noise, so I will kill it , and then share the meat with everyone. The other heads are also obedient.”

After a pause, she continued with a bit of playfulness: "Sometimes scaring them will make them more peaceful."

Intimidation is also a method of taming beasts, and sometimes they have to be simple and rude if they want these monsters with low IQs to submit.

Obedient, eat meat; disobedient, be eaten meat.

When Ren heard it, he also showed the same smile.

Sure enough, professional people do professional things.

Beast taming, Coleman is a real professional.

Because of Wu Duo, it also made up a crucial link for Black Dragon City, that is-air supremacy!

Whether it is combat, transportation, or intelligence reconnaissance, pterosaurs are the best choice.

Moreover, now that they have obtained the [Black Emperor's Tomb] treasure map, the work of finding the tomb has also been put on the agenda.

Previously, because there were various pterosaurs in the sky, the blue-tailed hawks domesticated by the Colemans could not go deep into the basin to detect information. Now that there are domesticated pterosaurs, it is easier to patrol from the air and find places where the human "living corpse" branch is dense.

And it's even safer.

The pterosaur is the overlord of the air in the "Kalateva Basin", and it is hardly attacked by any monsters and living corpses in the sky.

The only threat comes from higher-level wild pterosaurs.

Of course, the pterosaur gathering lair on the snow line on the mountainside has already been planned.

Early in the morning, Coleman's soldiers had already set out to pinpoint the location and collect information on the pterosaur lair.

Once the time is right, a large-scale dragon hunting operation will be organized.

While Ren and Ymir were patrolling the tribe, someone suddenly sent an urgent message, saying that Toust had made a major discovery and asked them to go there immediately.

They thought that there was something wrong with the Machinery City, so they hurried over, only to find that Mr. Toust was holding two black shields in the loot warehouse, with a serious expression on his face. There was also a group of people rummaging through the pile of booty stripped from the "living corpse".

Ren asked, "What's the matter, Grandpa Toust."

"Look at this shield."

Toust handed over the two small round shields with a diameter of nearly one meter.

Ren also vaguely guessed that it must not be easy for Toust to study the shield regardless of the mechanical design in his hand.

He picked it up, clicked it, and suddenly frowned: "Huh?"

Unexpectedly light, it seems to be only half the weight of a steel shield.

Toust's eyes flashed, and he smiled and said, "Isn't it very light?"

Seeing the expressions of the two, Ymir also picked it up, felt it slightly, and said, "What kind of metal is this? Why do I think it has a very strong magical property like [Mithril]?"

Toust: "There are more than these two points."

As he said that, he took out a short-barreled musket casually, and fired a shot at the shield.

"Boom!"

After the thick white smoke of gunpowder, to Ren's surprise, the bullet was embedded in the shield!

And just when they showed puzzled expressions, the bullet was slowly squeezed out again, and then fell to the ground.

The most miraculous scene happened, the crater on the shield was slowly healed again!

"this"

When Ren saw this miraculous scene, he exclaimed in his heart: memory metal?

But this is different from the memory metal in his previous life, which was like a fluid like mercury. But this black shield is in a solid state like plasticine.

"Before, the city defense department said that they found two well-preserved shields when they cleaned up the spoils of the corpse tide. They didn't know what materials they were made of, and they wanted to take them to our mechanical department for identification. Then, everyone didn't know each other, and they got me Come here."

Toust said this, with an extremely excited look in his eyes, "I saw it and realized it was a baby!"

Ryan searched quickly in his mind, and even the "intelligent brain" didn't have any records of this metal, obviously it was definitely some kind of rare metal.

He asked directly: "Grandpa Toust, what kind of metal is this?"

Toust couldn't hide his excitement, and he didn't make any more detours, and said directly: "This metal is called [Angela Black Iron], and it is a rare metal extracted from a special ore called 'Sacred Blood Mine'. It has 'Mithril' has the super high magical properties, and the magical recovery ability you saw just now. Because it looks like a lump of ooze, it is also called 'iron slime'. Usually, this kind of metal is just ancient alchemy A high-end material of Tao is only used in the surgery.”

Unclear, although Ren didn't understand, it seemed that he was really powerful.

Ymir murmured thoughtfully, "I've seen this metal in the royal treasure house before. It seems to be a very precious and rare metal."

"It's really expensive."

Toust nodded, pointed to this shield, and said, "A piece of [Angela Black Iron] the size of a fist is worth about 100 million gold coins on the alchemist's black market."

"Huh? One hundred million gold coins?"

Ren was stunned when he heard that, it was the size of a fist, so the shield is so big, it must be tens of billions?

It's so expensive, who the hell would use it so extravagantly for a shield?

However, in an instant he understood something.

This is what the ancient corpse brought out from the mud layer!

Minerals are regional, and those that have such mines in some places are worthless; those that are not produced can be sold for sky-high prices.

Ren turned his eyes and thought: "Could it be that there is a 'sacred blood mine' near this basin?!"

It can be used luxuriously to forge shields, which means that the amount of this metal will not be small.

Is this the rhythm of getting rich?

Apparently, the metal that Toust can take a fancy to is definitely not as simple as making a fortune.

The old man continued: "The most important material for the 'Arc Shock Alloy' of the four black knives on my mecha is this [Azra Black Iron]!"

When Ren heard it, his face immediately became excited. So it was the main material of the black knife? ! When the time comes, the mechanics in the territory will be handed over, won't they kill gods when they meet gods, and kill Buddhas when they meet Buddhas?

"These two shields are enough for me to make more than a hundred 'Arc Shock Black Knives'. Originally, it was not possible to find so many black irons in the entire Glory City."

Toust smiled mysteriously, "But the purpose of my coming to you is not this."

When Ren and Ymir heard this, their eyes became more expectant.

The old man continued: "I have studied this miraculous material. From a mechanical point of view, this metal also has a very powerful performance, that is 'shock reduction'!"

After a pause, he pointed to the completely recovered bullet crater on the shield, and said, "The specific performance is just like the effect of the musket hitting the shield just now. This kind of metal will not fly the projectile, but will fly the bullet. The impact force is offset layer by layer with high-frequency vibrations. This metal is only half the weight of steel, but it can withstand more than ten times the impact force, and it also has super magical properties naturally. That means Whether it is a physical attack or a magic elemental attack, this is the best armor material!"

"Armor?"

After this science popularization, Ren and Ymir finally knew why the old man called them here.

Tuster really said: "I suspect that there is a large 'Sacred Blood Mine' mine near here. If there is enough of this metal, I plan to use it to build the main armor of the Mechanic City!"

I feel a bit problematic with the writing of the plot recently. I may sort out the outline. I am not sure if I will continue with the third update tomorrow.
