The undead eventually retreated, and a large-scale war between Bracada and Diya did not break out.
If it were someone with a strong mind like Gru or Mlak, they would probably not cut off their path to becoming a demigod even if they were killed.
But Picklejem was not that kind of person. He gave in smoothly.
Not only did he cut off his own path to becoming a demigod, he also handed over all the methods of creating witch spirit gargoyles.
Afterwards, Gavin, as the representative of El Zeus, met with Dorgosos for secret talks.
After the negotiations, Daugesos withdrew his troops from the territory of Bracada.
In the end, the Grand Council did not publicly reveal who the hero was who stole the power of the undead, but quietly withdrew the reward for the mysterious man.
…
…
Two days later, the Thunder Temple announced that since the legendary Pickjem needed to be recruited by the Thunder Temple to conduct secret research and would not appear for a long time, Pickjem's position as a permanent councilor was temporarily removed.
All of Pickham's property was managed by his eldest son.
Duo Gaosuos doesn't want the matter of the witch gargoyle to spread, as it will be disadvantageous to the undead.
El Zeus didn't want word to get out about how he treated Picklejeme.
As the lord of Bracada and a god believed by the people, when the matter fell into his hands , instead of helping his subordinates, he betrayed them in order to seek peace.
If this matter gets out, not only will he be laughed at, but his subordinates will also become disloyal.
Thus, the new race of witch spirit gargoyles was completely strangled in its cradle.
…
The undead invasion of Bracada seems to have come to an end, but in fact the impact is far-reaching.
Dagosos's direct entry into Bracada was not just a slap on El Zeus' face, but a direct ride on El Zeus' face.
Normal people would think that as a powerful god, El Zeus would definitely compete with Daurgosus.
However, it did not.
There was no fighting, not even a tentative battle, and Daurgothos retreated safely with the undead.
He brought so many troops, and even He came in person, but He left so quickly and so easily. This can only mean that He has achieved His goal.
Few people know what Daugethos's purpose is.
But everyone knows that Bracada, which has always been known as the number one of the nine major forces, its true god El Zeus directly surrendered to Duogosos and did not put up any resistance.
This was a heavy blow to the prestige of El Zeus.
The Thunder Temple can still suppress the doubts of the people through some means, but those senior officials who have a very strong ability to obtain information can almost guess the truth in their hearts - His Majesty the King of Gods has sold Pickjam.
Especially, Trosa who assisted Picklejem throughout his research.
Trosa was not worried that Pickjem would betray him. As the chief of the logistics faction and the highest achiever in Magic Technology, he was different from Pickjem after all.
El Zeus's actions only made him more determined in his thinking.
“El Zeus is not a wise leader, and Bracada cannot always be a stable ship.
I must research the Mechanical Titan as quickly as possible and speed up the acquisition of factories to produce and popularize mechanical arms.
It’s time to put that out there.”
…
…
There was a lot of noise outside the Bracada [Grand Exhibition Hall].
Countless wizards and djinn from the industrial faction gathered together and had a very heated discussion.
“The Trosa Chamber of Commerce hasn’t held a press conference in fifteen years.
This sudden press conference must have led to another major breakthrough!"
"Of course, I will never forget the grand occasion when the Magic Ballista and Magic Crystal Cannon were released fifteen years ago.
Every time His Majesty Trosa makes a breakthrough, it shocks the entire Asian world."
“Since the earliest magic engine, President Trosa has been leading the trend.
It is all thanks to President Trosa that our industrial faction was able to become independent from the logistics faction in such a short period of time."
"I really hope the press conference will start soon. I can't wait to see and marvel at the president's new creation."
“I am a little worried. Due to the recent economic downturn, a large number of factories have closed down, and many of our industrial elites are feeling a little depressed.
I was afraid that the chairman was not ready yet, but in order to consider the overall situation and boost the confidence of the industrial faction, I forced the press conference to go ahead.”
"Nonsense! You have no idea of ​​the president's ability.
Believe in the president! Even if everyone else falls, as long as the president doesn’t fall, we industrialists won’t fall.”
Just as the mages were discussing heatedly, a row of extremely luxurious magic cars suddenly flew over from the sky.
These magic cars are shaped like water drops and are silver in color. They sparkle in the sun and are particularly eye-catching.
Soon, nine first-class maids got out of the first and last four magic cars.
They all have their own looks, but all of them are dignified and elegant, as pure and lovely as lotus flowers emerging from water.
If they were not wearing maid outfits, no one would associate them with maids just by looking at their looks, and everyone would think they were the daughters of some family.
“Oh my god, this is the Magic Fantasy, a co-branded model with the Thunder Temple. It can be directly connected to the tower spirit in Thunder City and can be unmanned. There is also a compressed space inside, and it is even equipped with a magic cannon.
Only 30 ships were released in the entire Asian Sands world!"
"Who is this? What a grand show, using such an expensive magic car to transport people?"
Just as everyone was talking and curious, nine maids held a red blanket and spread it out in front of the magic car in the middle, all the way to the front of the [Grand Exhibition Hall].
The door of the electric bike popped open with a sound, and Qi Ge slowly got off the bike.
He turned around and said gently to the people in the car:
"Teacher, slow down."
"Um."
Aged was supported by seven pigeons and walked down slowly.
"So it's His Majesty Argaide and His Highness Xingfeng. No wonder..."
"Oh~ Those nine maids are the maid group that His Highness Xingfeng brought with him to distribute the invitations!
She is indeed very beautiful. It has been going viral in Thunder City recently."
Aged looked around, shook his head, and said to Qige:
"Let's go."
"Yes, teacher."
Aged walked in front, with the seven pigeons following half a step behind him, and the nine maids lined up in a row, following silently.
Agaide's status is comparable to that of a demigod. If any demigod comes, the ceremony will be no less grand than it is now.
Those in high positions and with great power must demonstrate their uniqueness from the way they appear on the stage. This is an established rule in Bracada.
"Your Majesty Argaide! Little brother Xingfeng. I have been waiting for you to come.
Come on, come on, please come in. The best boxes are reserved for you."
Agaide's special appearance was also a notice to the master. Soon, Trosa came to the door of the [Great Exhibition Hall] and greeted him warmly.
Aged smiled and put his arm around Trosa's shoulder, saying:
"Oh, I'm an old man and don't want to move. Now that I'm here, you still have to find a way to take care of me. It's just causing you trouble.
But my apprentice insisted that I come with him, so I had the audacity to disturb him.
Young people just like to join in the fun and see new things.”
"No, I welcome you!"
Trosa looked at Qi Ge with appreciation. Qi Ge smiled at him and said with a wink:
"Your Majesty Trosa, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep the whole night last night.
When the time comes, you must let me invest in any new products I like."
"Hahaha! No problem, you can invest as much as you want.
The more you invest, the more you earn!
Don’t worry, I guarantee you will be satisfied with the results this time.”
Trosa patted Arged on the back.
"Your Majesty, please come this way. I have arranged everything for you..."
When they arrived at the box, Qi Ge finally understood what the arrangement that Trosa had mentioned was.
A 30-square-meter box was filled with women of various races.
There are lion girls, white tiger girls, snake demons, succubi, and Medusa.
Before Aged had even entered for a while, a large group of beautiful girls surrounded him.
There were also several kind-hearted and broad-minded girls who wanted to take care of Qi Ge, but unfortunately they were all glared back by the vampire Hong Wedding Dress behind Qi Ge.
This is also the reason why Qi Ge always brings the Vampire Brides with him wherever he goes when he is operating in Thunder City.
There was no way. As Aged's apprentice, he was sent women wherever he went, and he really couldn't handle it.
However, he had to act as if he was enjoying it, otherwise he would easily be suspected.
While waiting, Escher and Deris came over to visit and say hello to the Seventh Pigeon, Aged.
The leaders of the four major forces, except for Fafner, who has always been at odds with Trosa, the other two have all come.
Soon, the walls in the Seven Pigeons' room suddenly lit up, and a giant screen created by perspective atmospheric magic projected the images in the exhibition hall.
At the Trosa Chamber of Commerce, an eloquent host loudly delivered the opening remarks and introduced various products.
The achievements of the Trosa Chamber of Commerce over the past five years, from daily furniture to combat weapons, were all displayed one by one.
When the exhibition was halfway through, something caught Qi Ge's attention.
【Magic City Car
Wonderful Items
Effect: Can be moved, and can quickly create a sub-city after being unfolded. 】
This strange object is very remarkable.
As we all know, the way NPCs build cities is different from that of players.
They cannot use the city-building order and need to rely on the Tears of Yasha to gradually build the city within the range of the Tears of Yasha.
You can build a main city around the capital, a county city around the main city, and an acropolis around the county city...
New lower-level cities can only be built around higher-level cities.
Of course, their cities, like those of the players, can be slowly upgraded to higher-level cities.
However, compared with the convenience of players using city-building orders to enclose land everywhere, the NPC's method of building cities has great geographical limitations.
The [Magic City Car] is equivalent to the city-building order that can be used by NPCs.
The core of [Magic City Car] is a Suba Fire Seed.
The entire [Magic City Car] is actually equivalent to a compressed Acropolis that has already been built.
As long as the [Magic City Car] is deployed, an Acropolis can be built within two hours.
Moreover, a city expanded in this way can ignore the restrictions of the superior city. If it is deployed in the wild, it will also attract wild monsters to attack the city, just like a city-building order.
The appearance of the [Magic City Car] was not what surprised Qi Ge the most. In fact, the purpose of his coming here was to invest in the [Magic City Car].
"If I remember correctly, the [Magic City Car] was a product that was announced by the Trosa Chamber of Commerce in the second year after the game was launched in the previous life.
The emergence of the city vehicle broke the original pattern of the Yasa world, making it easier for NPCs to seize key resource mines, which is of epoch-making significance.
Later, during the Chaos invasion, the City Cart played a huge role and made an indelible contribution.
But now, as the penultimate piece of the exhibition, Trosa has displayed it.
The timeline has changed...
This shows that the main product that Trosa is going to display this time is even stronger than the [Magic City Car].
What could it be?
Qi Ge’s appetite was whetted.
He stood up from the vampire Red Wedding Dress's lap and moved closer to the screen.
Finally, the display of [Magic City Car] ended.
While everyone was still immersed in the afterglow of [Magic City Car], the host shouted loudly:
"Next! This is the last product of this exhibition.
The significance of this product is too great.
With my status, I am not qualified to stand here and introduce it to you.
Next, please give the warmest applause to welcome the president of our Trosa Chamber of Commerce, the head of the industrial faction, and the founder of Magic Technology.
Your Majesty Trosa!"
Bang bang bang!
Amidst thunderous applause, the curtain behind the host opened.
Trosa stood in the middle of the booth with a smile, and behind him stood sixteen short green-skinned creatures.
"Is this a big-eared monster?"
“No, that’s not right, not the big-eared monsters, although they look very similar, but their ears are too small and their teeth are not sharp enough.
This is a variant of the big-eared monster, the goblin."
"Oh~ That's the rubbish level 1 soldier that has the cowardly skill and runs away after a certain number of deaths?"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. A joke among the military."
"Why are there so many goblins standing behind Guild Master Trosa?"
“Watch their hands!
My God, isn't that the musket used by the Jackals? Their left palms are replaced by muskets, and their right palms have become sharp swords. "
“Everyone!!”
Trosa stood in the middle of the exhibition stand, raised his head slightly, raised his hands high, and shouted loudly:
"I know you must be very curious about what is behind me.
Please allow me, Trosa, to introduce to you the highest achievement of my Magic Technology!
This is a perfect product that combines biological transformation, magical technology, alchemy, and mechanical manufacturing, a great work of art.
I call it, Goblin Gunner!
At this moment, my words are pale and powerless. Please use reconnaissance or perspective to personally see the attributes of the troops behind me!"
"Wait a minute, what is this?"
Qi Ge's eyes had already lit up with a faint purple light. He looked at the group of goblins in shock, his eyes almost popping out.
Goblin Gunner
Faction: Tower
Level: 2
Rank: 1
Quality: Hidden
Speed: 4
HP: 12
Defense: 5
Attack: 5
Damage: 9
Range: 8
Ammunition 24
Special skills: Mechanical arms, ranged arms.
Quick Draw: Can shoot at close range.
Magical Knife: Add one more shot when counterattacking. 】
“My God… The dreaded Level 3, 1st-rank Wood Elves of the Barrier have always been the strongest low-level, 1st-rank ranged troop.
The range of the Goblin Gunner is 8, the same as that of the Wood Elf, and the ammunition amount is 24.
However, the damage of the Wood Elf is only 3 to 5, while the damage of the Goblin Gunner is an extremely stable 9 points, almost twice that of the Wood Elf!
Although the Goblin Gunner's attack is 4 points less than that of the Wood Elf and its speed is 2 points slower, its special skills can completely crush the Wood Elf which only has one special skill, Son of the Forest.
Mechanical soldiers, which means they can be repaired and are immune to mental magic.
Close range shooting means that even if the enemy soldiers are close to you, you can still effectively strike the enemy's back row.
Add a shot after the counterattack, that is, a close combat slash with half damage plus a shot.
If there is sufficient ammunition, it is equivalent to 1.5 counterattacks.
On the other hand, the Wood Elves' Children of the Forest (shooting in the forest ignores terrain, attack +2, defense +2).
It is only effective in forest terrain, and the effect is not strong, so it is really useless.
The most important thing is the output. Under normal circumstances, the output of level 2 soldiers is much greater than that of level 3 soldiers.
A level 2, stage 1 hidden soldier crushed the wood elves?
No wonder it's a big move. If the output can keep up, [Goblin Gunner] is a long-range tier 2 soldier that can replace the Gargoyle."
Not only Qi Ge was surprised, but the audience in the stands also exclaimed in amazement.
The appearance of such a powerful troop that has been recognized by the Mother Goddess is enough to make any hero excited.
Just as Qi Ge was surprised, Trosa on the stage said loudly:
"Everyone.
I believe everyone has seen the attributes of [Goblin Gunner].
When seeing goblins, everyone will definitely think of the level 1 goblins of the stronghold forces.
What is displayed on the screen of the booth now is the attributes and special skills of the goblin. "
Goblin
Power: Base
Level: 1
Rank: 1
Quality: Ordinary
Attack: 2
Defense: 1
Damage: 1-2
Health: 4
Speed: 5
trick--
Cowardly: When the number of enemies lost exceeds 25%, they cannot be controlled and will flee in a random direction.
Cluster effect: For every 100 increase in number, defense +1, attack +1, up to a maximum of 20. 】
"Everyone has seen that the Goblins are a typical low-level troop that bullies the weak and fears the strong, and uses their numbers to bully the few.
They have a powerful cluster effect stunt. When the number reaches 200, they can gain a powerful bonus of 20 points of defense and 20 points of attack power.
However, they also have the shameful stunt of being cowardly. As long as their number is reduced by more than 1/4, they will run around the battlefield without thinking and will not even fight back when attacked.
Goblins have always been talked about as garbage soldiers.
No one has ever realized the potential of the Goblin army - that is extremely terrifying reproductive ability!
They have no gender distinction, and any two goblins can mate and reproduce when necessary.
It only takes a week for a goblin to become pregnant and give birth to cubs, and each litter can produce 1 to 3 cubs!
If they were allowed to reproduce freely, the goblins would be able to multiply into an army of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands in just a few months!
If goblins' lifespan wasn't only five months, they would become a horrific disaster.
It is this extremely terrifying reproductive ability that allows weak soldiers like goblins to survive in harsh environments like those in strongholds.
It is precisely because of this that I chose Goblins as my research subject.
And [Goblin Gunner] is my proudest research result!
I can tell you responsibly here that the [Goblin Gunner] type of soldier is transformed from the [Goblin]!
Yes, you heard it right.
After my transformation, the Goblin changed from a level 1, stage 1 common soldier that was good for nothing except reproducing to a level 2, stage 1 hidden soldier. It also possessed long-range output capabilities that were no less than those of the elves, and far superior to those of the goblins, archers, lizard shooters, and evil eyes!
My transformation does not require selecting goblins with great potential. There are no requirements for the transformation. As long as it is a goblin, the transformation will be 100% successful.
Moreover, after achieving mass production in the factory, it only takes 100 gold coins to transform a Goblin Gunner.
Do you know what this means?
This means that we will have an additional ranged unit that can reproduce once a week and grow explosively in number.
Can you believe it? When facing the attack of Chaos, we can even compete with the infinite Chaos in numbers!"
"With the attributes of this type of soldier...
The recruitment price of the Wood Elf Heroic Spirit is 200 gold coins. Goblins can produce them continuously by catching some. The cost is only some low-quality food. It is enough to give them some of the food for the goblins, which is almost negligible.
We sell it to the public. One [Goblin Gunner] costs 150 gold coins and it will definitely be in short supply.
If you do the math, you will realize how huge the profit will be once the production increases!
I asked the Thunder Temple, and even if they don't sell it to the public, they can guarantee to buy back the Goblin Gunner at the price of 110 gold coins, and they will take as many as they can!"
"And this! Is just the beginning."
Trosa said solemnly:
"Goblins can become stronger through mechanical transformation, but what about other types of soldiers?
What about goblins? Gargoyles? Stonemen? Even Naga, the wizard djinn?
If that's possible, you know what that would mean?"
"That's amazing! That's really amazing!"
A mage stood up excitedly:
"Your Majesty Trosa, you have created a method to simultaneously improve the level and quality of troops without relying on the Tears of Yasha.
If your mechanical transformation can really be applied to all types of troops, then your achievements will definitely not be worse than wealth and peace!
You will definitely become a true God!"
“True God!!”
“Oh my god, using magic technology to create soldiers capable of fighting against chaos, isn’t this the future we’ve always been pursuing?
The future is already here!
Following Magic Technology, Trosamian has created a brand new path!
I can’t even imagine how many legendary masters and even demigods will emerge along this path! "
"Long live His Majesty Trosa!!"
Countless wizards and djinn who had realized what was happening cheered loudly and were extremely excited.
They all have a sense of exhilaration that the imagined future has suddenly arrived.
Amidst the countless praises, Trosa narrowed his eyes slightly, enjoying it very much.
In the box, Qi Ge stared at the Goblin Gunner, his eyes full of surprise and greed.
"Flesh and blood are weak, machinery ascends...
Trosa, you are amazing. You are really amazing, so amazing that I can't bear to kill you."
