Global Lord: Start As A Desert Lord

Under Richard's strong will.

next morning.

A group of over 60 blood gnomes was brought back to Twilight by Braun.

When Richard arrived, he found that the old dwarf Rand was already there.

Both sides are looking at their companions with complicated eyes.

Seeing Richard surrounded by a group of people, the dwarf controlled by the mechanical puppet immediately panicked.

He lowered his head in shock and fear, not daring to look directly at Richard.

Richard nodded to the old dwarf who was saluting him, not talking nonsense to the captive dwarves.

Open the properties panel directly and view the properties.

After a round, a total of 3 heroes were found, one of them had a potential of C-level, and the other two were D-level.

And without exception.

These three heroes all have the two top skills of Legendary-level descendants of divine blood and super-A-level knowledge inheritance.

Not a castrated skill for Common gnomes.

Definitely.

Sure enough, it was because of whether he was a hero.

In this way, the 1 million Rare resources invested in these gnomes must have a lot of benefits.

Withdrawing his gaze, he looked at the old dwarf.

"Rand, all the dwarves are under your management, handle your internal affairs well, if you have any problems, ask Braun to solve them."

Richard ignored them after exhorting them.

It is not necessary for him to take action to subdue a few dwarves.

What are the identities of these dwarfs... and he deserves to speak up in person?

Even if the dwarf god is still there, so be it.

Not to mention, now the dwarf even has the soul of his own god under his control...

"Yes, the Great Master..."

The old dwarf should be respectful and dare not say anything more.

The other dwarves didn't even dare to fart.

In front of the mighty surface lord, what else can they do besides waiting for each other to decide their own fate?

After the dwarf left, Braun excitedly came to Richard and told him the good news.

"Master, the mechanical vehicle manufacturing workshop you ordered to build has been completed..."

Richard's eyes lit up.

How to drive quickly in the desert has always been a big problem in "Glory Age" where the transportation is inconvenient.

The carrying capacity of flying arms is limited, and they also have to serve in important combat positions, so it is impossible to devote all of them to transportation.

The normal mode of transportation is still required.

Sandworms with a body length of 100 meters and the ability to drill into the sand are the best motivation.

For this reason, he put the 4-star Rare blueprint obtained in the dungeon - the transportation machinery manufacturing workshop, into the furnace city for construction.

The purpose is to produce the corresponding tools as quickly as possible.

Conquering the underground world is not the end, ruling this area and enjoying various hidden conveniences is the ultimate goal.

Braun leads the way, Richard follows.

Traveling through the dungeon full of mechanical punk style, his mood is also a little subtle.

If those players who love to take a bite come to this kind of place, I am afraid that they will directly have a mental orgasm.

The mixture of mechanical and exotic styles is extremely impressive.

What can alchemy do?

For the aborigines of "Glorious Era", this question is like asking the blue star people what physical chemistry can do.

Alchemy is a science in another world that complies with the rules of "Glorious Age" and can change the world.

For Richard, the gray dwarves are such a group of people who have studied alchemy very deeply.

Although this race is arrogant, greedy, cowardly, cowardly, and selfish, almost all the negative personalities of intelligent life are reflected in them.

But having a talent for alchemy that is difficult for ordinary people is enough to win them a place in Twilight City.

As for how to use alchemy, Richard has always had his own ideas.

But the biggest problem at present is that the accumulation of alchemy in Furnace City has not yet achieved the effect he wants.

It can only be done step by step.

In front of the huge mechanical vehicle manufacturing workshop, there is an exaggerated yard.

At this time, there are three machines with extremely special structures.

The three machines are exactly the same in appearance, ten meters high, twenty meters wide, and thirty meters long, divided into upper, middle and lower floors.

It looks like a canoe and is streamlined.

Interestingly, there is also a huge hook at the front and back, which is very similar to the junction of the carriages of the train.

When Richard was about to ask, Braun pointed at the special machine in front of him and said loudly.

"Master, this is the mechanical boat we specially designed for sandworms!"

"We have adopted a special segmented design, the transportation volume is small, we can separate the mechanical boat, and the transportation volume is large, and we can use hooks to connect multi-section mechanical boats to increase the carrying capacity."

"If the three-story building is not needed, it can be completely disassembled, leaving only the base of the mechanical boat, which can meet the transportation needs of large materials."

"And the front is specially designed with a fixed loading method for the size of the sandworm, which can automatically adjust the size and will not fall off."

"Not only that, but we have also reserved a magic space in the mechanical boat, which can be enchanted later..."

Seeing Braun talking eloquently, Richard looked very pleased.

Good guy, just by looking at the appearance of this thing, you can know how much transport volume it has.

The loading capacity of a mechanical boat is at least comparable to that of a brigade of bone blood dragons.

This thing is simply a desert train...

It has been a few months since I got the 4-star Rare blueprint of the transportation machinery manufacturing workshop, and finally it has achieved results.

The foundation of gray dwarves is indeed strong.

Yes, he is satisfied.

"Master, although the mechanical boat has been formed, there are still many difficulties that need to be improved, and sandworms need to cooperate with further research."

Richard nodded.

"I will send a few more sandworms for your research."

As he said that, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind.

The birth of the machine made him suddenly think that the development direction of alchemy in "Glory Age" seems to be born for battle.

The research on people's livelihood can only be described as lackluster.

The root cause is that "Age of Glory" is full of dangers.

The strongholds of field troops that are refreshed every week, the horror monsters of the dimension plane, demons, endless abyss, nine layers of purgatory, undead...etc, this world is never safe.

Maslow's theory of needs... Survival and safety are always the most fundamental and bottom needs.

Therefore, when one's own security is threatened, no matter actively or passively, resources must be invested in improving one's own security and ensuring survival.

This is the most basic logic of military competition.

The same is true of alchemy technology. It's not that other people are stupid, but the environment requires it.

If you stockpile food and the enemy next door stockpiles guns, then everything you do is meaningless. Therefore, basically all forces will develop military power.

Even the development of Twilight City is the same.

This mechanical boat, somewhat similar to a train, was originally intended to transport troops, but when used in transportation, it can completely reduce the communication cost between the two regions.

Civilian and military use can be seamlessly switched.

This made him think of a question that most people can think of - if this is the case, why can't alchemy be used to do more?

For example, make special mechanical puppets to mine ore, forge weapons, design special machinery to cultivate farmland, develop mechanical modules to produce goods...

Other forces, perhaps out of helplessness, must engage in an arms race, and have to invest all their resources in improving the strength of the army.

But he owns the underground world, and Twilight City is in the desert, and the surrounding environment is relatively safe.

There is room for him to develop.

Richard stroked his chin.

"Although "Glory Age" is completely different from Blue Star's technology, the basic rules are also different."

"However, localizing some of Bluestar's products that have a major impact on life, and using alchemy technology to realize them... doesn't seem to be too difficult."

"Isn't the natural environment bad in the underground world? Is it feasible to directly change the environment by growing in a greenhouse?"

Diverge thinking along this direction.

Richard instantly felt that there was a lot to be done in this direction...

Alchemy is a top-level "discipline" that can be as famous as magic.

Withdrawing his thoughts, he looked at Braun.

"The sandworm has not yet fully grown up, and its body shape will change in the future. Has this been taken into account in your design?"

"Master, the mechanical boat was finalized after many discussions, please rest assured."

Braun said this with confidence.

Can become the overlord of the underground world and rule a large area for hundreds of years.

The talent and alchemy accumulation of the gray dwarves can be called strong.

After Furnace City was occupied, although the casualties were not small, a large number of gray dwarf talents were gathered from other areas.

Richard nodded.

After organizing the language, I described the idea of ​​developing people's livelihood technology just now, and finally said.

"Alchemy has the possibility of creating miracles, not just for military use."

"To transform the natural environment and turn an unsuitable environment into an environment suitable for us, this should be the ability that alchemy should have."

Braun's eyes widened, looking at Richard in surprise.

"Master, few people pay attention to this aspect now... In fact, at the beginning of the birth of alchemy, it was used to modify the environment to improve production efficiency."

Said a little surprised.

"Your wisdom is really amazing, alchemy greenhouse, alchemy mining, alchemy forging..."

"I have a feeling that if we really develop in this direction, one day we will be able to achieve amazing results for everyone."

Richard smiled, quite pleased with Braun's acceptance of this aspect.

I also have some expectations in my heart, maybe some players with flexible minds have already started similar attempts.

However, it is difficult for players to have an entire underground world as a test field.

It is also difficult to have a big city like Furnace City as a base, and it is even more difficult to have a race like the gray dwarves with hundreds of years of accumulated technology to work for him.

If the statue of the dwarf god is activated again, a group of dwarfs with knowledge inheritance will participate in it.

Bloodhoof City manufactures weapons, and Furnace City studies alchemy...the two largest cities in the underground world will once again compete for hegemony.

The prize for winning this time will be Richard's appreciation.

This will determine their future status in Twilight City.

Who dares to ignore the will of the master?

After patrolling the furnace city.

Richard was in a good mood.

The Furnace City is on the right track, and the duergar regime seems to have been completely reduced to nothingness.

Twilight City gradually imprinted its traces here.

The gray dwarf's sense of time and style of doing things allows his will to be best practiced here.

As long as Twilight City still controls the underground world for one day, the gray dwarves will obediently serve it.

October 18th.

After making arrangements for the underground world, Richard quietly returned to the surface.

Bloodhoof City has Searle in command, and Furnace City has Braun in command. Both of them are not weak in carrying out orders, so he doesn't need to keep an eye on them all the time.

When he left the underground world, he did not disturb the ancient godly evil tree that was still sleeping.

All the god-blood gnomes were brought out by him.

The numbers add up to exactly one squadron.

There are many dwarves in this world, but the one in his hand may be the only one with the blood of the gods.

Although Richard intends to put these dwarves into the furnace city, let them cooperate with the gray dwarves to study alchemy.

But before that, the blood vessels in their bodies had to be activated first.

However, the 1 million units of Rare resources made him difficult.

In the player trading market, 1 unit of Rare resources can now be exchanged for 500 units of Common resources.

This is not a small sum.

The output of Common resources is large, and various veins are refreshed every week, even if it is a low-level force that develops for a period of time, it can accumulate a lot by mining alone.

Rare resources are different, not only refresh less, but also produce less.

In the lord's mansion, while listening to Karoo's report, Richard thought about where to earn the 1 million Rare resources.

After Karoo stopped, he withdrew some of his thoughts.

"You arrange those dwarves normally, so don't worry too much."

"After the blood vessels in their bodies are activated, the useful ones will be kept, and the useless ones will be sent back to the underground world."

Carew said yes.

Knowing that the blood of the gods flowed in the bodies of those dwarves, he was a little uncertain about Richard's attitude towards them.

Richard seemed to have thought of something at this moment, and turned his head to look at his side.

Looking at the empty ground, his eyes moved slightly.

"Any news from Hina?"

Karoo shook his head.

"Not yet, maybe they have just arrived in the Kerina tribe."

Richard was noncommittal.

I am used to Xina and the Dark Valkyrie guarding my side, so I am not used to leaving them suddenly.

I hope that the two of them can step up to a higher level next time they come back.

Seeing that Richard didn't ask any more questions, Karoo continued to speak.

"My lord, two hours ago, Val sent back a letter..."

As he spoke, he took out the opened letter from his pocket and handed it over.

As the administrative officer of Twilight City, this letter was originally written for him to exchange information, and it is normal to unpack it.

Richard didn't answer, and waved his hands.

"That's the point."

"yes!"

Karoo's tone became solemn.

"Most of the matters are about how to develop the Purple Roland Chamber of Commerce. We have already written back to Val."

"Only one of the proposals requires you to make a decision."

Seeing that Karoo's tone was very solemn, Richard also raised his spirits.

"What new ideas does Val have?"

Karu frowned.

"Vair suggested that we use the property of Twilight City not to get lost in the desert to carry out business..."

Richard was a little puzzled, wasn't this a long-awaited plan? Do you want to tell him specifically?

Karoo's voice didn't stop.

"It's not just about trading in the Common. Weir suggested that Twilight City be built as the core city of the Death Desert, so that the entire Death Desert's goods can be circulated from the Twilight City."

"As for Twilight City, you can form your own transport caravan, use our characteristic of not getting lost, and help other forces transport goods out of the desert of death."

"In addition to this, we can also train specialized guides to guide the way for chambers of commerce of other forces."

"The desert of death has a large number of restricted areas. Those terrifying areas will invalidate all maps and magic items. The fact that we will never get lost in the desert of death is an unparalleled advantage."

When Richard heard this, his expression was a little subtle.

Isn't this just doing logistics?

Moreover, Furnace City just manufactured a mechanical boat suitable for large-scale transportation... Did Weier get the news in advance?
