The Second Coming of the Myth: I have obtained the blood of the Candle Dragon
Chapter 157 Arms Dealer
Under the light of the fire, this black and blue nightmare mecha looked cold and strange. Its structure made it obvious at a glance that it was a demon god born for killing.
Rather than saying that this is some kind of industrially produced machinery, it is better to say that this is something from hell, like a devil's creation used by Hades to counterattack heaven.
The three elders of the Camor family stared closely at the mecha, completely attracted by it.
With their knowledge and minds, they understood the strategic value of this thing in an instant.
They originally thought that the forces behind Su Lin could produce high-quality weapons that would allow them to arm their own private soldiers, but they did not expect that what Su Lin and the others wanted to sell were 'private soldiers'!
A clan elder stood up, walked to the nightmare machine, stretched out his hand to touch it, and felt that the nature in his eyes became stronger.
He looked at Su Lin and said, "To make it like this, it must be movable."
Su Lin nodded, "Of course, we made initial settings when building it. In addition to the intelligent combat module that will continue to grow with accumulated combat experience, the core control module belongs to the person who activates it for the first time."
"How to activate?"
The old man in gray clothes said, "Don't worry, we will buy it."
Su Lin bowed and saluted, "You are serious. I came here to visit the elders. This is just a small gift that belongs to you."
As he spoke, he gave instructions and opened a small button on the front chest of the Nightmare Mecha. There was a hole inside that could insert a finger, "Put your finger in, and there will be a spike inside to collect your blood. In this way, you will obtain the highest command authority over it, while your relatives who are related by blood will have secondary command authority based on their kinship."
The gray-clothed elder did not hesitate and directly put his finger in. His fingertips felt a slight sting, but with his recovery power, the small wound disappeared in an instant.
"I'm very interested in your blood technology. Can the functions related to command be turned off to a limited extent?"
The gray-clothed clan elder asked. He felt that the mecha in front of him had started to activate, and there was familiar energy running inside it.
"Of course. When it is fully activated, you will feel the connection you have established with it. Your password is absolute and can eliminate some people's command authority."
Su Lin introduced that this was a nightmare mecha that he had refined using the ancient blood-shedding method of identifying its master. It was a type that was easier for ordinary people to accept and manipulate.
Taking into account the division of the legion's command and the situation of the buyers, Su Lin specially added a blood gene analysis system. In addition to the first owner, people with blood ties to the contractor can also command the nightmare mecha.
It's just that the elders of the Camor family don't seem to be very satisfied with this function, but fortunately they can adjust it themselves.
Rumbling--
As the nightmare mecha started up, some nightmare exhaust gas spurted out from the holes on its back. The mechanical veins under the body's surface lit up due to the connection of energy, emitting a faint blue shimmer, which had a sense of technology.
"It's so beautiful, like a creation of the devil."
The gray-clothed clan elder sighed, turned to a guard in the dark and said, "Char, try its strength."
The priest named Charles came out. With a flick of his hand, a military thorn appeared in his hand and he rushed straight towards the Nightmare Mecha.
The old man in gray clothes returned to his lounge chair, holding a cigarette rod, as if he was ready to enjoy a drama.
Su Lin also stepped away and watched the battle between man and machine.
Ciel's strength is not weak. He can serve as a guard in the vacation palace. He is considered an elite among extraordinary beings. His comprehensive physical attributes can reach about 37 points, and his mental attributes are not weak. After all, people with weak spirits cannot become nightmare extraordinary beings. Otherwise, it has long been contaminated.
During the fight, Ciel had the upper hand, but Shia alloy was extremely strong. If the core was not damaged, Ciel could only leave some scratches and gaps on its surface.
"The combat ability is average. It is a dead thing after all. Even if it has some preset combat methods, it is too rigid."
A clan elder commented that he seemed dissatisfied with the Nightmare Mecha's actual combat capabilities.
He doesn't think that the production cost of this thing is very low. The price must be high. If it is too stupid, it will be easy for someone to take advantage of it. It is obedient to be obedient, but if it cannot form qualified combat power, it doesn't mean much. .
"Su Lin, is this your family's highest masterpiece?"
The gray-clothed tribesman slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, his old eyes emotionless.
Su Lin bowed slightly, "Because you haven't ordered it yet."
"Is it just the self-protection system operating now?"
The gray-clothed elder's understanding ability was astonishing, which surprised Su Lindu, because people in this world are not supposed to know programs or anything like that, but the other party understood some of the terms he said and easily accepted the nightmare mecha. thing.
"Yes, in order to prevent accidental injury to our own people, we have set it up when the Nightmare Mecha leaves the factory. Without the owner's order, it only uses a secondary self-protection system. It will only dodge and unload its force, and will not Injuring his attacker, you can order this mode to be lifted, or you can let it remain.”
Su Lin explained with a smile, "And if you want it to go to the battlefield, you should give it a killing order."
The gray-clothed tribesman smiled when he heard this, and took a slow drag on his cigarette, "Nightmare Mecha, kill your opponent."
He spoke very calmly, as if Ciel was not the bodyguard of their family during the battle, and he did not even regard it as a life.
And just after the gray-clothed elder gave the order, a pair of scarlet eyes lit up on the head of the Nightmare Mecha. Several airflow holes behind it spewed out a large amount of exhaust gas, and its operating power increased geometrically.
In just an instant, the aura of this nightmare mecha changed, from a docile domestic dog that could only be beaten to a ferocious cheetah.
The sound of breaking wind sounded, and in the firelight, a blue sharp blade cut through the void. In just a moment, one of Ciel's arms was broken.
Without enough time to scream or retreat, the Nightmare Mecha volleyed with a roundhouse kick, and the blade extended from its feet cut off Ciel's head.
Cold, efficient, clean and crisp.
From the time the gray-clothed clan elder issued the killing order to the time the nightmare mecha killed Ciel, less than two seconds had passed.
clap clap-
There was a sound of clapping, and the three elders applauded. Ciel's head was still rolling on the ground, and his eyes were wide open.
There were guards nearby who consciously stepped forward, dragged Ciel's body away, and cleaned it up.
"It's really outstanding, I was pleasantly surprised."
The old man in gray clothes looked at Su Lin with a smile, "Allow me to introduce myself, the patriarch of the Camor family, Bruntes Camor. I admire you very much, my child."
"It is an honor for me to meet the head of the Camor family."
Su Lin bowed humbly. He knew that the retired old man in front of him was the real power within the Yongye Church.
The Camor family now has 26 cardinals, one cardinal, and is also quite powerful in the Inquisition.
But even when the cardinal came here, he had to bow respectfully to the patriarch, because without the patriarch speaking, he couldn't sit in that position at all. All the family's resources are in the hands of these old people. inside.
Bruntes also served as a cardinal when he was young, and also sat in the position of cardinal for decades. After retirement, he became the head of the Camor family, and only then did he become the real power behind the scenes.
Within the sphere of influence of the Eternal Night Church, this is the pinnacle stage of power. Even the appointment and dismissal of the Pope, these old men have a say.
As for the position of the pope, to put it bluntly, it is now a competition for power among the major families. Whichever pope will be more beneficial to their family will be favored by them.
This generation of popes is not easy to control. The problem actually lies in the mistakes of the five major theocratic families. The pope they wanted to elect was someone else. However, this generation of popes has the support of several cardinals who are not from the five major families, so he succeeded. Bit.
There are 12 cardinals in total, and the five theocratic families have always controlled five places. The other seven cardinals were basically promoted through their connections, so they have always been easy to control.
But before this generation of popes came to power, three theocratic families 'rebelled' and no longer listened to their orders. They voted for the current pope, which allowed the current pope to take office.
After the current pope came to power, he was very respectful to the five ancient theocratic families at first and obeyed in everything. However, after a few decades, as his wings became fuller, he began to feel uneasy.
The Camor family has been sanctioned by some policies implemented by the Pope in recent years. Although the losses are not large, this is a dangerous signal. The Camor family is huge and will not give up.
That's why Su Lin came to the Kamol family, or waited for the Kamol family to come to him.
"Excellent creation, I really don't know what kind of technology can create such a thing."
Boss Bruntes looked at the nightmare mecha, "How long can it run in killing mode?"
"If it is running at full power, it can continue to fight for about half an hour. When it reaches the critical line, if it is not in combat mode, it will automatically sleep for energy replenishment."
Su Lin introduced his products.
"Do we need to manually add Night's Gift to it?"
Bruntes asked, this is their biggest concern. The Nightmare Mecha is an excellent creation. If there are enough, it will be an invincible army. But the core energy use is the gift of the night, which is within the church. It is also a strategic material and very scarce.
"We have adjusted it well. The recovery of the nightmare mecha is very good. It only takes 48 hours to automatically restore energy after sleeping. If it is added manually, the speed will be faster."
Su Lin explained that the 'battery' used in the nightmare mecha he designed was the most cost-effective, capable of producing high power and recovering very quickly.
"Did you take advantage of the recovery characteristics of the Night's Gift... Yes, that is to say, as long as the operating critical point is not exceeded, the Nightmare Mecha can continue to be recycled."
Bruntes looked at the Nightmare Mecha with admiration. I am afraid there is no more perfect legion than this one.
Not afraid of death, absolutely obedient, with superb fighting ability, and no need to worry about charging.
"The cost of such a mecha must be very high, right?"
Another clan elder spoke, concerned about the price. If the price was too high, then maybe they might as well cultivate their own army of extraordinary deadpools.
"The elders should understand that this is a technology that spans the ages. Since it is a creation that spans the ages, and we are ready to bring it to the market, it is naturally a qualified product."
Su Lin smiled and said that the word technology has been around for a long time, but it has been a bottleneck in Yongye Continent for many years. "Qualified products must be able to control the cost in order to be liked by buyers."
With that said, he waved his hand, and nine more nightmare mechas appeared in the venue. His storage space has become much larger after level 30, and it can just fit in it.
The ring on his hand is just a cover-up. This world also has Gift of the Night props that can be used to store space. It is not difficult to understand.
Su Lin held out two fingers and said, "2000 gold coins. You can buy this model of nightmare mecha for only 2000 gold coins."
Patriarch Bruntes glanced at the ten nightmare mechas, and then looked at Su Lin with interest, "Can you produce this thing?"
No one commented on the price. To be honest, the three old people present felt that 2000 gold coins was a cheap price.
You must know that Shia Alloy's toilets are now priced at 200 gold coins each. Ten sets of toilets can be exchanged for a cold and obedient killing machine. This is a good deal.
"To be honest, we are currently short of funds. Although we already have mature technology, mass production is still difficult. We made some money from selling Shia alloy handicrafts, but I squandered it all, otherwise I also didn’t have the opportunity to meet a few respectable elders.”
Su Lin explained.
"What a talkative kid. Two thousand gold coins per unit is indeed not expensive, but you have to understand that the Nightmare Mecha can only exert its power if it forms a legion."
Master Bruntes said with a smile. He had a friendly smile on his face, but if you look closely at his eyes, you will feel that he is not smiling.
"My dear master, with your wisdom you should understand that the difficulty of this kind of mechanical creation, whether it is in terms of material cost or worker cost, coupled with the core gift of night, we cannot afford the price of two thousand gold coins. What you earn is not as high as the profit from selling handicrafts.”
Su Lin said humbly, in fact, the cost for him to make a nightmare mecha is no more than 5 gold coins. After all, it is easy for him to obtain nightmare fuel, almost at zero cost, and in terms of material processing, giant steam engines cooperate with workers. As a result, he only does the final processing.
But people have to think that the Nightmare Mecha is precious enough. He knows that the Camor family will not let go of business like the Nightmare Mecha, and the other party's lowering the price is just a habitual test.
"How much can you do?"
Patriarch Bruntes asked.
"As long as we solve the problem of lack of funds, the turnover will be enough to meet the needs of your family."
Su Lin smiled and spoke vaguely.
Bruntes took a puff of his cigarette, tapped his fingers on the side of the recliner, and spoke after a moment, "Xia Li, take [-] gold coins and give them to Mr. Su Lin. I want all ten nightmare mechas."
However, Su Lin said: "You misunderstood. I just said that I came here to visit the elders. These are just small gifts, not commodities for trading."
Bruntes smiled when he heard this and stared at Su Lin, "My child, what do you want?"
Su Lin saluted and said: "The cardinal in the Archdiocese of Nancy is already quite old. I want to become a white cardinal first."
"It's just ten nightmare mechas, kid, your appetite is too big."
Bruntes' tone was calm, and one could not tell the joy or anger in his emotions.
He understood what Su Lin meant. He wanted to become a white bishop without any actual duties and wait for the cardinal of the Archdiocese of Nancy to abdicate and take over directly. This would be very difficult to operate because the cardinal was already a high-level member of the church.
The cardinal of the Archdiocese of Nancy is indeed a member of the Carmore family, but this position has already been reserved by an outstanding descendant of the family.
"This is just a junior's wish, not a request for the elders. I would like to emphasize again that these ten mechas are just small gifts for visiting, and I have never expected any benefits in exchange."
Su Lin said humbly, "If some elders still appreciate me in our future cooperation, it will not be too late to consider it again."
Bruntes knocked on the cigarette rod and the ash fell to the ground. He looked at Su Lin with a smile and waved behind him. A maid came over and handed him a notebook.
Bruntes wrote a number in the book, stamped it with his personal seal, tore it off and handed it to Su Lin, "This is a promissory note of 50 gold coins. It can be cashed at Narcisse Bank. It is the first batch of goods." A quarter of the deposit will be paid in advance, and the balance of 150 million will be given to you upon delivery.”
"Your generosity and determination amaze and admire the younger generation. Please rest assured that you will receive the first batch of goods in a week."
Su Lin took the cashier's check respectfully. The Camor family also runs the Narcisse Bank within the scope of the Evernight Church. This bank is one of the three largest banks under the Evernight Church.
From just one business, he earned 200 million gold coins. If converted into geothermal ore, that would be 200 million tons of geothermal ore. No matter how high the production capacity of Nim is now, this is still an unreachable figure.
Development will not be rapid if you just immerse yourself in farming, so exports and diplomacy are necessary. With a large number of assets gathered in your own hands, you can exchange more resources for internal development.
It was expected that the Nightmare Mecha would sell well. As for the pricing of the Nightmare Mecha, Su Lin did not just set it with high profits in mind, but had already considered it.
After traveling around the land of Eternal Night Church for more than a month, he had a clearer understanding of the extraordinary system here.
The cost of cultivating extraordinary combatants for the Eternal Night Church is also very high. Let's not mention how much money the training process costs. Just talk about the salary of the clergy, which is a big expense.
For example, priests and nuns at the foundation of the church, even ordinary people without extraordinary powers, are well paid, with a monthly salary of 1-2 gold coins depending on their seniority.The monthly fixed salary of the white bishop is about 10 gold coins, which is more than 100 gold coins a year. That's why Bishop Neo engages in corruption. If he becomes corrupt every year, he can earn twice as much as his salary.
Geothermal ore is an energy currency, but it is not expensive on the Evernight Continent because geothermal veins are everywhere and seem to be inexhaustible. No one knows what is deep in the earth's crust.
Only by walking outside can you know how low the productivity of Nim was before. The geothermal ore delivered by the whole country in a year was only enough to pay the salary of a few white bishops.
Of course, the salary of the white bishop is sky-high for the common people on the Evernight Continent.
The purchasing power of gold coins on the road is extremely high. If you compare it to a soft girl coin in reality, one gold coin has a purchasing power of about 1 yuan.
To be more specific, 10 yuan can buy a pound of geothermal ore, and one pound of geothermal ore can satisfy a family's cooking needs for three days. If 10 yuan is used to buy beans and rice from before Nim, It's probably enough to feed a family for two days.
Therefore, bishops in white are members of the leadership with an annual salary of millions, and priests and nuns are also high-paying public officials.
There are also many special extraordinary beings in the church. They are not white bishops, but they are equally powerful. They belong to the Eternal Night Holy Army or the Heretic Tribunal. Their salaries are also very high.
If Charles, who was just killed by the Nightmare Mecha, was in the Church of Eternal Night, his monthly salary would not be less than 15 gold coins, even more than many white bishops.
It may seem a bit unreasonable at first glance, but in fact these people are the backbone and armed force of the church, and the white bishops are usually the powerful managers who control the diocese. Their fighting talents are not the most important, and because they have their own territory , the dead wages are just put on the table for a look.
As for Bishop Neo, his apparent salary is only 120 gold coins per year, but he can earn thousands of gold coins in extra subsidies every year.
Extraordinary combatants have to risk their lives, so it is normal for their basic salary to be higher.
Looking at it this way, Ciel's annual salary is 180 gold coins, and more than ten years' salary is enough to buy a nightmare mecha.
This does not include the time cost, resource cost, and labor cost spent on cultivating the Church of Charles Time. In comparison, the Nightmare Mecha has completely destroyed the traditional model of cultivating extraordinary beings.
Mr. Bruntes is a smart man, and he immediately saw the value of this nightmare mecha. This is a revolutionary product that may even eliminate traditional transcendent beings in the future.
How much is the annual military expenditure for the Eternal Night Holy Army raised by the Eternal Night Church?
If they were all replaced by this obedient and fearless nightmare mecha, the scale could be expanded tenfold!
By then, conquering the other two major churches will not be a dream. There should of course be only one church in the Evernight Continent, and that is the Evernight Church.
Before that, the Camor family will seize the opportunity to further consolidate their dominance in the storm of the new era.
Su Lin left the Kamer family's vacation palace, his pockets were bulging, and it was much easier to do things.
He planned to use the money to purchase a large amount of Shia gold, as well as rarer and stronger gold, to build a nightmare mecha that could target high-end powerful men.
…………
The cold air of spring is gradually replaced by warm wind, and the season turns towards summer again.
On this day, the citizens of Nim Kingdom knelt on the ground devoutly and shouted for the greatness of the God of Light.
Su Lin ignited the True Fire of the Sun throughout the country, bringing light to the citizens of Nim.
He used that flame-retardant material as a base and wrapped it in a street lamp to illuminate the streets and alleys.
Because the largest light source in Nim's country is his super boiler, most of the weirdness will be attracted to the largest light source first, and those small light sources become places where no weirdness is interested.
Even if there are occasional weird attempts to extinguish those light sources, they will be burned by the true fire of the sun. As for the nightmare fuel, it will also be ignited and wasted. Su Lin can't control that much.
There was no way he could set up a device to automatically collect nightmare fuel on every streetlight. It would be too troublesome and extremely inefficient, compared to many of his giant boilers.
The whole country of Nim has become brighter, and people's lives have undergone earth-shaking changes. They are now proud to live in Nim, which is the only bright place on the Evernight Continent.
The reason why Su Lin dared to spread light to the country in such a big way was because the Lafam diocese was already under his control, and Bishop Nila in the south had completely become his lackey.
Huge interests have gone to Bishop Nila's mind. In front of money, all beliefs and everything else have to give way. Moreover, Su Lin and the others have indeed not caused any disasters that are difficult to deal with.
At first, Bishop Nila was surprised when she learned that Lu Zhixue's supply of goods came from Nim Country, but with so much money in her pocket, she didn't hesitate to ask more questions.
Bishop Nila was frightened when she saw the light coming from the Nim Kingdom, but Lu Zhixue notified her immediately and asked her to tell the people below that this was a pilot show for the church.
It is an experiment to use light to trap weirdness, and the country of Nim, a gathering place for non-devout believers, was chosen as the pilot project.
This is of course a lie, but it is enough to deceive the priests below. Besides, the country of Nim has always been peaceful and there has been no trouble.
Su Lin has taken care of the two major dioceses that surround the country of Nimes. Naturally, he can be more unscrupulous in Nimes. Now Lafayam Parish and Green Parish are their protective shields. People outside are blind. Can't see what's going on here.
With the advent of light, it is inevitable to increase productivity. In the past, people worked in the dark, and no matter how skilled they were, they had to be very careful. Now that they can see with their own eyes, it is naturally much more convenient.
Especially for some delicate work on the assembly line in the factory, the production efficiency has increased by more than ten times.
He had already completed his first transaction with the Camor family. One hundred nightmare mechas were delivered, and he received a total of 200 million gold coins. This was an asset that the original Nimu country could not earn even in 100 years.
With this money, Su Lin bought rare materials on a large scale through the circle he met during his month of travel.
Among them, there are two things that satisfy him most. One is something called Titanium Mira metal, which is a natural high-density mineral gold with very few impurities, close to zero.
Su Lin didn't know if this element existed in reality, but he felt that it was most likely a new element from another world. The hardness and toughness of Titanium Mira metal was more than ten times that of Shia alloy, and it was a fairy material in itself. .
The output of this kind of mineral gold in Yongye Continent seems to be quite high, but the price is not very expensive, and it has a bit of a 'look'
Because the Titanium Mila metal is translucent, it looks like a colored diamond to Su Lin, but it is not very popular with theocratic nobles. After all, this metal may look pretty under the light, but the texture feels soft when touched. But not outstanding, and the world is in darkness.
In addition, the hardness and flexibility of Titanium Mira metal are so high that it is almost impossible to process. The beautiful natural appearance of Titanium Mira metal is very rare. Only those naturally formed artistic Titanium Mira metals are of high value. Others are not more expensive than geothermal ores. Where to go.
To put it bluntly, it is a bit similar to the stone playing circle in the real world. The stone itself may not be valuable, but if it naturally looks like a person, it is worth money.
Of course Su Lin didn't care about the appearance of the Titanium Mira metal. He just bought a large amount of 'waste rock' because he could process this metal.
In the natural state of the Evernight Continent, the appearance of Titanium Mira metal will only be changed under the high temperature and pressure of volcanic eruptions. Unless extraordinary people use their abilities, it will be difficult to reach that temperature without flames in this world. .
This problem does not exist for Nimes. They have large boilers. After softening the metal, they have steam engines to drive high-pressure machines for shaping. It is not difficult to process titanium Mira metal.
Su Lin is preparing to develop a new generation of high-end nightmare mechas. The material cost of this batch of mechas will be lower, but the performance and quality will be better. However, considering the increase in processing costs, the basic costs will be roughly the same.
However, even if the basic cost is the same, the price of his new product will be much higher than that of the old model, because according to his estimation, the comprehensive strength of the new model of nightmare mecha can reach the level of a common level 35 alien in the Shanhai game.
Not only from the attribute point of view, the comprehensive attribute can approach 40 points, but its appearance is so tough that even if Su Lin's Bahuang were to cut it, it would not be easy to cut it without using some violent skills.
After all, Bahuang is now only the main weapon of the immortal grade, and the Titanium Mira metal itself is also an immortal grade material. Naturally, there cannot be a huge gap at the same level.
Su Lin looked at his technology victory score, which was 49615 points.
Well, I guess the aliens from other families are confused. After all, the furry bears in Yenisei only have more than 3000 technology victory points.
Su Lin felt that if he was given [-] new nightmare mechas, he would be able to conquer and win.
It's a pity that although Titanium Mira metal is not expensive, the output on Yongye Road is not that high, and the processing is quite time-consuming.
The most important thing is that the current machine still has a flaw, that is, the energy is not durable enough.
In order to drive this high-performance nightmare mecha, Su Lin had to give up the nine-unit core with the highest recovery speed and the highest cost performance. Secondly, he switched to the 81-unit core with higher output.
The core of 81 units can make the temporary output of the nightmare mecha reach the level of 40 points of comprehensive attributes of the alien, but it can only continue to fight for 5 minutes. If it exceeds 5 minutes, the core will be scrapped, breaking the critical point of recovery.
He does not doubt that his users will not complain about the short size of high-end machines, because 5 minutes is enough to decide the winner in a life-and-death battle, but this flaw will still be used by his users as a reason to lower the price.
The reason why he is really dissatisfied is that he is not planning to sell this kind of mecha in large quantities. He wants to hold more than 90.00% of the new mecha in his own hands.
As his own legion, Su Lin certainly has reason to be more picky.
To put it bluntly, what he plans to sell will only be second-rate goods.
After talking about the new machine plan brought to him by Titanium Mira Metal, let's talk about the second resource he collected with money.
Curse heavy gold.
This is what people on the Evernight Continent call this metal, because anyone who is contaminated with this metal will be cursed, and the holder often dies before he can live long. In addition, this metal is very heavy, so it is cursed. Such a name.
Yes, Su Lin also heard a female guest mention it in a salon, saying that her friend was so stupid that he actually bought a curse and put it on the bedside as a decoration.
Su Lin inquired about it with interest, and finally found this cursed gold. As expected, it was a reflective element with similar properties to highly enriched uranium-235 or plutonium-239 in the real world.
However, whether this material can be successfully used as a raw material for nuclear bombs needs to be verified.
If a nuclear material is used to make a nuclear bomb, it must meet one condition, which is to trigger a chain reaction of nuclear fission.
Simply put, the neutrons released during fission of nuclear materials can at least produce nuclear fission in another atomic nucleus, so we only need to provide an original neutron.
However, if neutrons are lost faster than they are formed by fission, the chain reaction will not be self-sustaining.The point at which a chain reaction happens to be self-sustaining is called critical mass.
In fact, the fact that non-radioactive materials cannot now become nuclear materials can also be attributed to this, because the critical mass of these elements is infinite.
The first problem with other nuclear materials making it difficult to make an atomic bomb (or not reaching weapons grade) is that the critical mass of many radioactive elements is very large.
Su Lin was going to experiment first. If it didn't work, he could follow the idea of finding the cursed gold and continue to arrange for people to find it. Anyway, he had plenty of money now.
He was not prepared to actively use this type of weapon of mass destruction, but again, he didn't have to use it on people, but he had to have it.
Only by mastering the nuclear fission atomic bomb can he develop a hydrogen bomb, and the research on nuclear fission can also facilitate the supply of energy after Nim's expansion. He has run out of insulation materials and can only have one super giant boiler.
………………
Time flies by so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it's summer again. It's been a year since Su Lin came to this world.
Since the New Year, under the calm water surface of the Evernight Continent, undercurrents have been surging.
The Camor family got their wish and obtained 30 nightmare mechas, plus [-] new cutting-edge mechas.
When Su Lin came to visit for the second time and showed the Nightmare Mecha Type-[-] to the elders of the Camor family, he felt the flash of murderous intention in the old man.
Obviously, the other party is not a fool and has realized that this kind of mecha can threaten the dominance of the church.
But he is too pious and humble, and the Camor family really needs such a strategic weapon, so they must continue to cooperate with him.
Of course, the Camor family has carefully investigated Su Lin in the past few months, and has even found out that the source of the goods is in the country of Nimes, but the Camor family has now been brought into the chariot.
They know that if they tear open the veil of Nim Country, they will get nothing in the future.
But now they are still at the forefront of this mechanical revolution, and have not yet obtained the large-scale legion they desire, so they cannot act rashly.
Of course, Su Lin would not put his eggs in one basket. At the Evernight Church Vocational High School Meeting in the middle of the year, twelve cardinals voted by show of hands to decide on the candidate for the new cardinal archbishop of Nancy. Su Lin had already received 7 votes. passed the selection with a slight advantage.
This result surprised the Camor family, because the cardinals of the Camor family did vote for Su Lin, but they had not done any other campaign work for Su Lin before. It was supposed that this was just a vote of friendly support.
But there were still six cardinals who voted for Su Lin, whom they supposedly didn't know.
The Kamor family instantly understood that Su Lin did not just sell the Nightmare Mecha to them. They were not even sure that they were the first family to buy the Nightmare Mecha from Su Lin.
That's right, after Su Lin confirmed that the cargo route was open, he quickly contacted several other major families, including the five ancient theocratic families, and he didn't miss any of them.
Each family purchased hundreds of nightmare mechas from him, and some theocratic families who were now Cardinals also purchased from him.
Nowadays, he has not touched the theocratic family where the Pope belongs. Other theocratic families are more or less related to their business in Nim.
This is the situation Su Lin wants. Faced with a cross-generational technological product like the Nightmare Mecha, no one will be tempted. But when many people want it, they will resort to traps, and no one will come to Nim. trouble.
Because they were afraid that their actions would force Su Lin to take sides. Once the Nim Kingdom was pushed under an ancient theocratic family, it would be a big trouble.
As for whether the Nim Kingdom has mastered such technology, whether it will pose a threat to the Eternal Night Church, the major families have also considered it.
They believe that although the Nightmare Mecha is strong, it is for an army, but Su Lin is not strong enough. If the church really wants to attack the Nim Kingdom, it can send a few top masters to capture Su Lin alive, and there will be no trouble. solved.
What really puzzles the major families is that it is true that the Nim Kingdom now has money to purchase various materials from abroad, but who provides the 'gift of the night' (nightmare fuel) to the Nim Kingdom?
Some of them had sneaked into Nim Country and saw the 'cult' side of Nim Country, which has now become a kingdom of light, but they did not discover the source of nightmare fuel.
Some spies believed that the source of nightmare fuel might be related to the giant boiler, but there were always cutting-edge mechas patrolling the outside of the giant boiler, and Su Lin himself was often nearby, so they did not dare to get close.
In summer, Su Lin felt refreshed after taking a sip of ice-cold wine after a busy day.
"Lin Lin, if you sit on the fence like this, aren't you afraid that the church leaders will kill you in a fit of anger?"
Lu Zhixue looked at Su Lin's leisurely and contented look and couldn't help but ask.
"They dare not and are reluctant to let go."
Su Lin smiled and said, "The nightmare mecha is too tempting to them, and their respective strengths are opaque. They don't know how many others have purchased from me. If they kill me, their potential Is it weaker than others?"
He had long expected that spies would come to investigate. After one year of operation, he was no longer afraid of ordinary wars. What's more, the more clearly those people investigated, the more they became more aggressive.
The final processing of the nightmare mecha is in his own hands, and it is useless to steal the design drawings, because in his mind, the finishing touch that makes the mecha move and have combat intelligence is the secret method of Xuantian Sect, and he is Not many people can learn it.
Those people want to monopolize this technology, but they are also afraid that they will not be able to pry it out from themselves. However, if they kill themselves and destroy the Nim Kingdom, they are also afraid of suffering losses in the subsequent turmoil.
Yes, there is going to be a war.
Su Lin had already smelled the breath of war. The major theocratic families were dissatisfied with the current church rulers. Originally, they might have solved it through political means, but as an 'arms dealer', they had other solutions.
The Pope is not a fool. There is no way he doesn't know that a group of theocratic families are buying nightmare mechas.
When war is imminent, who will fight the arms dealers first? (End of chapter)
Rather than saying that this is some kind of industrially produced machinery, it is better to say that this is something from hell, like a devil's creation used by Hades to counterattack heaven.
The three elders of the Camor family stared closely at the mecha, completely attracted by it.
With their knowledge and minds, they understood the strategic value of this thing in an instant.
They originally thought that the forces behind Su Lin could produce high-quality weapons that would allow them to arm their own private soldiers, but they did not expect that what Su Lin and the others wanted to sell were 'private soldiers'!
A clan elder stood up, walked to the nightmare machine, stretched out his hand to touch it, and felt that the nature in his eyes became stronger.
He looked at Su Lin and said, "To make it like this, it must be movable."
Su Lin nodded, "Of course, we made initial settings when building it. In addition to the intelligent combat module that will continue to grow with accumulated combat experience, the core control module belongs to the person who activates it for the first time."
"How to activate?"
The old man in gray clothes said, "Don't worry, we will buy it."
Su Lin bowed and saluted, "You are serious. I came here to visit the elders. This is just a small gift that belongs to you."
As he spoke, he gave instructions and opened a small button on the front chest of the Nightmare Mecha. There was a hole inside that could insert a finger, "Put your finger in, and there will be a spike inside to collect your blood. In this way, you will obtain the highest command authority over it, while your relatives who are related by blood will have secondary command authority based on their kinship."
The gray-clothed elder did not hesitate and directly put his finger in. His fingertips felt a slight sting, but with his recovery power, the small wound disappeared in an instant.
"I'm very interested in your blood technology. Can the functions related to command be turned off to a limited extent?"
The gray-clothed clan elder asked. He felt that the mecha in front of him had started to activate, and there was familiar energy running inside it.
"Of course. When it is fully activated, you will feel the connection you have established with it. Your password is absolute and can eliminate some people's command authority."
Su Lin introduced that this was a nightmare mecha that he had refined using the ancient blood-shedding method of identifying its master. It was a type that was easier for ordinary people to accept and manipulate.
Taking into account the division of the legion's command and the situation of the buyers, Su Lin specially added a blood gene analysis system. In addition to the first owner, people with blood ties to the contractor can also command the nightmare mecha.
It's just that the elders of the Camor family don't seem to be very satisfied with this function, but fortunately they can adjust it themselves.
Rumbling--
As the nightmare mecha started up, some nightmare exhaust gas spurted out from the holes on its back. The mechanical veins under the body's surface lit up due to the connection of energy, emitting a faint blue shimmer, which had a sense of technology.
"It's so beautiful, like a creation of the devil."
The gray-clothed clan elder sighed, turned to a guard in the dark and said, "Char, try its strength."
The priest named Charles came out. With a flick of his hand, a military thorn appeared in his hand and he rushed straight towards the Nightmare Mecha.
The old man in gray clothes returned to his lounge chair, holding a cigarette rod, as if he was ready to enjoy a drama.
Su Lin also stepped away and watched the battle between man and machine.
Ciel's strength is not weak. He can serve as a guard in the vacation palace. He is considered an elite among extraordinary beings. His comprehensive physical attributes can reach about 37 points, and his mental attributes are not weak. After all, people with weak spirits cannot become nightmare extraordinary beings. Otherwise, it has long been contaminated.
During the fight, Ciel had the upper hand, but Shia alloy was extremely strong. If the core was not damaged, Ciel could only leave some scratches and gaps on its surface.
"The combat ability is average. It is a dead thing after all. Even if it has some preset combat methods, it is too rigid."
A clan elder commented that he seemed dissatisfied with the Nightmare Mecha's actual combat capabilities.
He doesn't think that the production cost of this thing is very low. The price must be high. If it is too stupid, it will be easy for someone to take advantage of it. It is obedient to be obedient, but if it cannot form qualified combat power, it doesn't mean much. .
"Su Lin, is this your family's highest masterpiece?"
The gray-clothed tribesman slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, his old eyes emotionless.
Su Lin bowed slightly, "Because you haven't ordered it yet."
"Is it just the self-protection system operating now?"
The gray-clothed elder's understanding ability was astonishing, which surprised Su Lindu, because people in this world are not supposed to know programs or anything like that, but the other party understood some of the terms he said and easily accepted the nightmare mecha. thing.
"Yes, in order to prevent accidental injury to our own people, we have set it up when the Nightmare Mecha leaves the factory. Without the owner's order, it only uses a secondary self-protection system. It will only dodge and unload its force, and will not Injuring his attacker, you can order this mode to be lifted, or you can let it remain.”
Su Lin explained with a smile, "And if you want it to go to the battlefield, you should give it a killing order."
The gray-clothed tribesman smiled when he heard this, and took a slow drag on his cigarette, "Nightmare Mecha, kill your opponent."
He spoke very calmly, as if Ciel was not the bodyguard of their family during the battle, and he did not even regard it as a life.
And just after the gray-clothed elder gave the order, a pair of scarlet eyes lit up on the head of the Nightmare Mecha. Several airflow holes behind it spewed out a large amount of exhaust gas, and its operating power increased geometrically.
In just an instant, the aura of this nightmare mecha changed, from a docile domestic dog that could only be beaten to a ferocious cheetah.
The sound of breaking wind sounded, and in the firelight, a blue sharp blade cut through the void. In just a moment, one of Ciel's arms was broken.
Without enough time to scream or retreat, the Nightmare Mecha volleyed with a roundhouse kick, and the blade extended from its feet cut off Ciel's head.
Cold, efficient, clean and crisp.
From the time the gray-clothed clan elder issued the killing order to the time the nightmare mecha killed Ciel, less than two seconds had passed.
clap clap-
There was a sound of clapping, and the three elders applauded. Ciel's head was still rolling on the ground, and his eyes were wide open.
There were guards nearby who consciously stepped forward, dragged Ciel's body away, and cleaned it up.
"It's really outstanding, I was pleasantly surprised."
The old man in gray clothes looked at Su Lin with a smile, "Allow me to introduce myself, the patriarch of the Camor family, Bruntes Camor. I admire you very much, my child."
"It is an honor for me to meet the head of the Camor family."
Su Lin bowed humbly. He knew that the retired old man in front of him was the real power within the Yongye Church.
The Camor family now has 26 cardinals, one cardinal, and is also quite powerful in the Inquisition.
But even when the cardinal came here, he had to bow respectfully to the patriarch, because without the patriarch speaking, he couldn't sit in that position at all. All the family's resources are in the hands of these old people. inside.
Bruntes also served as a cardinal when he was young, and also sat in the position of cardinal for decades. After retirement, he became the head of the Camor family, and only then did he become the real power behind the scenes.
Within the sphere of influence of the Eternal Night Church, this is the pinnacle stage of power. Even the appointment and dismissal of the Pope, these old men have a say.
As for the position of the pope, to put it bluntly, it is now a competition for power among the major families. Whichever pope will be more beneficial to their family will be favored by them.
This generation of popes is not easy to control. The problem actually lies in the mistakes of the five major theocratic families. The pope they wanted to elect was someone else. However, this generation of popes has the support of several cardinals who are not from the five major families, so he succeeded. Bit.
There are 12 cardinals in total, and the five theocratic families have always controlled five places. The other seven cardinals were basically promoted through their connections, so they have always been easy to control.
But before this generation of popes came to power, three theocratic families 'rebelled' and no longer listened to their orders. They voted for the current pope, which allowed the current pope to take office.
After the current pope came to power, he was very respectful to the five ancient theocratic families at first and obeyed in everything. However, after a few decades, as his wings became fuller, he began to feel uneasy.
The Camor family has been sanctioned by some policies implemented by the Pope in recent years. Although the losses are not large, this is a dangerous signal. The Camor family is huge and will not give up.
That's why Su Lin came to the Kamol family, or waited for the Kamol family to come to him.
"Excellent creation, I really don't know what kind of technology can create such a thing."
Boss Bruntes looked at the nightmare mecha, "How long can it run in killing mode?"
"If it is running at full power, it can continue to fight for about half an hour. When it reaches the critical line, if it is not in combat mode, it will automatically sleep for energy replenishment."
Su Lin introduced his products.
"Do we need to manually add Night's Gift to it?"
Bruntes asked, this is their biggest concern. The Nightmare Mecha is an excellent creation. If there are enough, it will be an invincible army. But the core energy use is the gift of the night, which is within the church. It is also a strategic material and very scarce.
"We have adjusted it well. The recovery of the nightmare mecha is very good. It only takes 48 hours to automatically restore energy after sleeping. If it is added manually, the speed will be faster."
Su Lin explained that the 'battery' used in the nightmare mecha he designed was the most cost-effective, capable of producing high power and recovering very quickly.
"Did you take advantage of the recovery characteristics of the Night's Gift... Yes, that is to say, as long as the operating critical point is not exceeded, the Nightmare Mecha can continue to be recycled."
Bruntes looked at the Nightmare Mecha with admiration. I am afraid there is no more perfect legion than this one.
Not afraid of death, absolutely obedient, with superb fighting ability, and no need to worry about charging.
"The cost of such a mecha must be very high, right?"
Another clan elder spoke, concerned about the price. If the price was too high, then maybe they might as well cultivate their own army of extraordinary deadpools.
"The elders should understand that this is a technology that spans the ages. Since it is a creation that spans the ages, and we are ready to bring it to the market, it is naturally a qualified product."
Su Lin smiled and said that the word technology has been around for a long time, but it has been a bottleneck in Yongye Continent for many years. "Qualified products must be able to control the cost in order to be liked by buyers."
With that said, he waved his hand, and nine more nightmare mechas appeared in the venue. His storage space has become much larger after level 30, and it can just fit in it.
The ring on his hand is just a cover-up. This world also has Gift of the Night props that can be used to store space. It is not difficult to understand.
Su Lin held out two fingers and said, "2000 gold coins. You can buy this model of nightmare mecha for only 2000 gold coins."
Patriarch Bruntes glanced at the ten nightmare mechas, and then looked at Su Lin with interest, "Can you produce this thing?"
No one commented on the price. To be honest, the three old people present felt that 2000 gold coins was a cheap price.
You must know that Shia Alloy's toilets are now priced at 200 gold coins each. Ten sets of toilets can be exchanged for a cold and obedient killing machine. This is a good deal.
"To be honest, we are currently short of funds. Although we already have mature technology, mass production is still difficult. We made some money from selling Shia alloy handicrafts, but I squandered it all, otherwise I also didn’t have the opportunity to meet a few respectable elders.”
Su Lin explained.
"What a talkative kid. Two thousand gold coins per unit is indeed not expensive, but you have to understand that the Nightmare Mecha can only exert its power if it forms a legion."
Master Bruntes said with a smile. He had a friendly smile on his face, but if you look closely at his eyes, you will feel that he is not smiling.
"My dear master, with your wisdom you should understand that the difficulty of this kind of mechanical creation, whether it is in terms of material cost or worker cost, coupled with the core gift of night, we cannot afford the price of two thousand gold coins. What you earn is not as high as the profit from selling handicrafts.”
Su Lin said humbly, in fact, the cost for him to make a nightmare mecha is no more than 5 gold coins. After all, it is easy for him to obtain nightmare fuel, almost at zero cost, and in terms of material processing, giant steam engines cooperate with workers. As a result, he only does the final processing.
But people have to think that the Nightmare Mecha is precious enough. He knows that the Camor family will not let go of business like the Nightmare Mecha, and the other party's lowering the price is just a habitual test.
"How much can you do?"
Patriarch Bruntes asked.
"As long as we solve the problem of lack of funds, the turnover will be enough to meet the needs of your family."
Su Lin smiled and spoke vaguely.
Bruntes took a puff of his cigarette, tapped his fingers on the side of the recliner, and spoke after a moment, "Xia Li, take [-] gold coins and give them to Mr. Su Lin. I want all ten nightmare mechas."
However, Su Lin said: "You misunderstood. I just said that I came here to visit the elders. These are just small gifts, not commodities for trading."
Bruntes smiled when he heard this and stared at Su Lin, "My child, what do you want?"
Su Lin saluted and said: "The cardinal in the Archdiocese of Nancy is already quite old. I want to become a white cardinal first."
"It's just ten nightmare mechas, kid, your appetite is too big."
Bruntes' tone was calm, and one could not tell the joy or anger in his emotions.
He understood what Su Lin meant. He wanted to become a white bishop without any actual duties and wait for the cardinal of the Archdiocese of Nancy to abdicate and take over directly. This would be very difficult to operate because the cardinal was already a high-level member of the church.
The cardinal of the Archdiocese of Nancy is indeed a member of the Carmore family, but this position has already been reserved by an outstanding descendant of the family.
"This is just a junior's wish, not a request for the elders. I would like to emphasize again that these ten mechas are just small gifts for visiting, and I have never expected any benefits in exchange."
Su Lin said humbly, "If some elders still appreciate me in our future cooperation, it will not be too late to consider it again."
Bruntes knocked on the cigarette rod and the ash fell to the ground. He looked at Su Lin with a smile and waved behind him. A maid came over and handed him a notebook.
Bruntes wrote a number in the book, stamped it with his personal seal, tore it off and handed it to Su Lin, "This is a promissory note of 50 gold coins. It can be cashed at Narcisse Bank. It is the first batch of goods." A quarter of the deposit will be paid in advance, and the balance of 150 million will be given to you upon delivery.”
"Your generosity and determination amaze and admire the younger generation. Please rest assured that you will receive the first batch of goods in a week."
Su Lin took the cashier's check respectfully. The Camor family also runs the Narcisse Bank within the scope of the Evernight Church. This bank is one of the three largest banks under the Evernight Church.
From just one business, he earned 200 million gold coins. If converted into geothermal ore, that would be 200 million tons of geothermal ore. No matter how high the production capacity of Nim is now, this is still an unreachable figure.
Development will not be rapid if you just immerse yourself in farming, so exports and diplomacy are necessary. With a large number of assets gathered in your own hands, you can exchange more resources for internal development.
It was expected that the Nightmare Mecha would sell well. As for the pricing of the Nightmare Mecha, Su Lin did not just set it with high profits in mind, but had already considered it.
After traveling around the land of Eternal Night Church for more than a month, he had a clearer understanding of the extraordinary system here.
The cost of cultivating extraordinary combatants for the Eternal Night Church is also very high. Let's not mention how much money the training process costs. Just talk about the salary of the clergy, which is a big expense.
For example, priests and nuns at the foundation of the church, even ordinary people without extraordinary powers, are well paid, with a monthly salary of 1-2 gold coins depending on their seniority.The monthly fixed salary of the white bishop is about 10 gold coins, which is more than 100 gold coins a year. That's why Bishop Neo engages in corruption. If he becomes corrupt every year, he can earn twice as much as his salary.
Geothermal ore is an energy currency, but it is not expensive on the Evernight Continent because geothermal veins are everywhere and seem to be inexhaustible. No one knows what is deep in the earth's crust.
Only by walking outside can you know how low the productivity of Nim was before. The geothermal ore delivered by the whole country in a year was only enough to pay the salary of a few white bishops.
Of course, the salary of the white bishop is sky-high for the common people on the Evernight Continent.
The purchasing power of gold coins on the road is extremely high. If you compare it to a soft girl coin in reality, one gold coin has a purchasing power of about 1 yuan.
To be more specific, 10 yuan can buy a pound of geothermal ore, and one pound of geothermal ore can satisfy a family's cooking needs for three days. If 10 yuan is used to buy beans and rice from before Nim, It's probably enough to feed a family for two days.
Therefore, bishops in white are members of the leadership with an annual salary of millions, and priests and nuns are also high-paying public officials.
There are also many special extraordinary beings in the church. They are not white bishops, but they are equally powerful. They belong to the Eternal Night Holy Army or the Heretic Tribunal. Their salaries are also very high.
If Charles, who was just killed by the Nightmare Mecha, was in the Church of Eternal Night, his monthly salary would not be less than 15 gold coins, even more than many white bishops.
It may seem a bit unreasonable at first glance, but in fact these people are the backbone and armed force of the church, and the white bishops are usually the powerful managers who control the diocese. Their fighting talents are not the most important, and because they have their own territory , the dead wages are just put on the table for a look.
As for Bishop Neo, his apparent salary is only 120 gold coins per year, but he can earn thousands of gold coins in extra subsidies every year.
Extraordinary combatants have to risk their lives, so it is normal for their basic salary to be higher.
Looking at it this way, Ciel's annual salary is 180 gold coins, and more than ten years' salary is enough to buy a nightmare mecha.
This does not include the time cost, resource cost, and labor cost spent on cultivating the Church of Charles Time. In comparison, the Nightmare Mecha has completely destroyed the traditional model of cultivating extraordinary beings.
Mr. Bruntes is a smart man, and he immediately saw the value of this nightmare mecha. This is a revolutionary product that may even eliminate traditional transcendent beings in the future.
How much is the annual military expenditure for the Eternal Night Holy Army raised by the Eternal Night Church?
If they were all replaced by this obedient and fearless nightmare mecha, the scale could be expanded tenfold!
By then, conquering the other two major churches will not be a dream. There should of course be only one church in the Evernight Continent, and that is the Evernight Church.
Before that, the Camor family will seize the opportunity to further consolidate their dominance in the storm of the new era.
Su Lin left the Kamer family's vacation palace, his pockets were bulging, and it was much easier to do things.
He planned to use the money to purchase a large amount of Shia gold, as well as rarer and stronger gold, to build a nightmare mecha that could target high-end powerful men.
…………
The cold air of spring is gradually replaced by warm wind, and the season turns towards summer again.
On this day, the citizens of Nim Kingdom knelt on the ground devoutly and shouted for the greatness of the God of Light.
Su Lin ignited the True Fire of the Sun throughout the country, bringing light to the citizens of Nim.
He used that flame-retardant material as a base and wrapped it in a street lamp to illuminate the streets and alleys.
Because the largest light source in Nim's country is his super boiler, most of the weirdness will be attracted to the largest light source first, and those small light sources become places where no weirdness is interested.
Even if there are occasional weird attempts to extinguish those light sources, they will be burned by the true fire of the sun. As for the nightmare fuel, it will also be ignited and wasted. Su Lin can't control that much.
There was no way he could set up a device to automatically collect nightmare fuel on every streetlight. It would be too troublesome and extremely inefficient, compared to many of his giant boilers.
The whole country of Nim has become brighter, and people's lives have undergone earth-shaking changes. They are now proud to live in Nim, which is the only bright place on the Evernight Continent.
The reason why Su Lin dared to spread light to the country in such a big way was because the Lafam diocese was already under his control, and Bishop Nila in the south had completely become his lackey.
Huge interests have gone to Bishop Nila's mind. In front of money, all beliefs and everything else have to give way. Moreover, Su Lin and the others have indeed not caused any disasters that are difficult to deal with.
At first, Bishop Nila was surprised when she learned that Lu Zhixue's supply of goods came from Nim Country, but with so much money in her pocket, she didn't hesitate to ask more questions.
Bishop Nila was frightened when she saw the light coming from the Nim Kingdom, but Lu Zhixue notified her immediately and asked her to tell the people below that this was a pilot show for the church.
It is an experiment to use light to trap weirdness, and the country of Nim, a gathering place for non-devout believers, was chosen as the pilot project.
This is of course a lie, but it is enough to deceive the priests below. Besides, the country of Nim has always been peaceful and there has been no trouble.
Su Lin has taken care of the two major dioceses that surround the country of Nimes. Naturally, he can be more unscrupulous in Nimes. Now Lafayam Parish and Green Parish are their protective shields. People outside are blind. Can't see what's going on here.
With the advent of light, it is inevitable to increase productivity. In the past, people worked in the dark, and no matter how skilled they were, they had to be very careful. Now that they can see with their own eyes, it is naturally much more convenient.
Especially for some delicate work on the assembly line in the factory, the production efficiency has increased by more than ten times.
He had already completed his first transaction with the Camor family. One hundred nightmare mechas were delivered, and he received a total of 200 million gold coins. This was an asset that the original Nimu country could not earn even in 100 years.
With this money, Su Lin bought rare materials on a large scale through the circle he met during his month of travel.
Among them, there are two things that satisfy him most. One is something called Titanium Mira metal, which is a natural high-density mineral gold with very few impurities, close to zero.
Su Lin didn't know if this element existed in reality, but he felt that it was most likely a new element from another world. The hardness and toughness of Titanium Mira metal was more than ten times that of Shia alloy, and it was a fairy material in itself. .
The output of this kind of mineral gold in Yongye Continent seems to be quite high, but the price is not very expensive, and it has a bit of a 'look'
Because the Titanium Mila metal is translucent, it looks like a colored diamond to Su Lin, but it is not very popular with theocratic nobles. After all, this metal may look pretty under the light, but the texture feels soft when touched. But not outstanding, and the world is in darkness.
In addition, the hardness and flexibility of Titanium Mira metal are so high that it is almost impossible to process. The beautiful natural appearance of Titanium Mira metal is very rare. Only those naturally formed artistic Titanium Mira metals are of high value. Others are not more expensive than geothermal ores. Where to go.
To put it bluntly, it is a bit similar to the stone playing circle in the real world. The stone itself may not be valuable, but if it naturally looks like a person, it is worth money.
Of course Su Lin didn't care about the appearance of the Titanium Mira metal. He just bought a large amount of 'waste rock' because he could process this metal.
In the natural state of the Evernight Continent, the appearance of Titanium Mira metal will only be changed under the high temperature and pressure of volcanic eruptions. Unless extraordinary people use their abilities, it will be difficult to reach that temperature without flames in this world. .
This problem does not exist for Nimes. They have large boilers. After softening the metal, they have steam engines to drive high-pressure machines for shaping. It is not difficult to process titanium Mira metal.
Su Lin is preparing to develop a new generation of high-end nightmare mechas. The material cost of this batch of mechas will be lower, but the performance and quality will be better. However, considering the increase in processing costs, the basic costs will be roughly the same.
However, even if the basic cost is the same, the price of his new product will be much higher than that of the old model, because according to his estimation, the comprehensive strength of the new model of nightmare mecha can reach the level of a common level 35 alien in the Shanhai game.
Not only from the attribute point of view, the comprehensive attribute can approach 40 points, but its appearance is so tough that even if Su Lin's Bahuang were to cut it, it would not be easy to cut it without using some violent skills.
After all, Bahuang is now only the main weapon of the immortal grade, and the Titanium Mira metal itself is also an immortal grade material. Naturally, there cannot be a huge gap at the same level.
Su Lin looked at his technology victory score, which was 49615 points.
Well, I guess the aliens from other families are confused. After all, the furry bears in Yenisei only have more than 3000 technology victory points.
Su Lin felt that if he was given [-] new nightmare mechas, he would be able to conquer and win.
It's a pity that although Titanium Mira metal is not expensive, the output on Yongye Road is not that high, and the processing is quite time-consuming.
The most important thing is that the current machine still has a flaw, that is, the energy is not durable enough.
In order to drive this high-performance nightmare mecha, Su Lin had to give up the nine-unit core with the highest recovery speed and the highest cost performance. Secondly, he switched to the 81-unit core with higher output.
The core of 81 units can make the temporary output of the nightmare mecha reach the level of 40 points of comprehensive attributes of the alien, but it can only continue to fight for 5 minutes. If it exceeds 5 minutes, the core will be scrapped, breaking the critical point of recovery.
He does not doubt that his users will not complain about the short size of high-end machines, because 5 minutes is enough to decide the winner in a life-and-death battle, but this flaw will still be used by his users as a reason to lower the price.
The reason why he is really dissatisfied is that he is not planning to sell this kind of mecha in large quantities. He wants to hold more than 90.00% of the new mecha in his own hands.
As his own legion, Su Lin certainly has reason to be more picky.
To put it bluntly, what he plans to sell will only be second-rate goods.
After talking about the new machine plan brought to him by Titanium Mira Metal, let's talk about the second resource he collected with money.
Curse heavy gold.
This is what people on the Evernight Continent call this metal, because anyone who is contaminated with this metal will be cursed, and the holder often dies before he can live long. In addition, this metal is very heavy, so it is cursed. Such a name.
Yes, Su Lin also heard a female guest mention it in a salon, saying that her friend was so stupid that he actually bought a curse and put it on the bedside as a decoration.
Su Lin inquired about it with interest, and finally found this cursed gold. As expected, it was a reflective element with similar properties to highly enriched uranium-235 or plutonium-239 in the real world.
However, whether this material can be successfully used as a raw material for nuclear bombs needs to be verified.
If a nuclear material is used to make a nuclear bomb, it must meet one condition, which is to trigger a chain reaction of nuclear fission.
Simply put, the neutrons released during fission of nuclear materials can at least produce nuclear fission in another atomic nucleus, so we only need to provide an original neutron.
However, if neutrons are lost faster than they are formed by fission, the chain reaction will not be self-sustaining.The point at which a chain reaction happens to be self-sustaining is called critical mass.
In fact, the fact that non-radioactive materials cannot now become nuclear materials can also be attributed to this, because the critical mass of these elements is infinite.
The first problem with other nuclear materials making it difficult to make an atomic bomb (or not reaching weapons grade) is that the critical mass of many radioactive elements is very large.
Su Lin was going to experiment first. If it didn't work, he could follow the idea of finding the cursed gold and continue to arrange for people to find it. Anyway, he had plenty of money now.
He was not prepared to actively use this type of weapon of mass destruction, but again, he didn't have to use it on people, but he had to have it.
Only by mastering the nuclear fission atomic bomb can he develop a hydrogen bomb, and the research on nuclear fission can also facilitate the supply of energy after Nim's expansion. He has run out of insulation materials and can only have one super giant boiler.
………………
Time flies by so fast, and in the blink of an eye, it's summer again. It's been a year since Su Lin came to this world.
Since the New Year, under the calm water surface of the Evernight Continent, undercurrents have been surging.
The Camor family got their wish and obtained 30 nightmare mechas, plus [-] new cutting-edge mechas.
When Su Lin came to visit for the second time and showed the Nightmare Mecha Type-[-] to the elders of the Camor family, he felt the flash of murderous intention in the old man.
Obviously, the other party is not a fool and has realized that this kind of mecha can threaten the dominance of the church.
But he is too pious and humble, and the Camor family really needs such a strategic weapon, so they must continue to cooperate with him.
Of course, the Camor family has carefully investigated Su Lin in the past few months, and has even found out that the source of the goods is in the country of Nimes, but the Camor family has now been brought into the chariot.
They know that if they tear open the veil of Nim Country, they will get nothing in the future.
But now they are still at the forefront of this mechanical revolution, and have not yet obtained the large-scale legion they desire, so they cannot act rashly.
Of course, Su Lin would not put his eggs in one basket. At the Evernight Church Vocational High School Meeting in the middle of the year, twelve cardinals voted by show of hands to decide on the candidate for the new cardinal archbishop of Nancy. Su Lin had already received 7 votes. passed the selection with a slight advantage.
This result surprised the Camor family, because the cardinals of the Camor family did vote for Su Lin, but they had not done any other campaign work for Su Lin before. It was supposed that this was just a vote of friendly support.
But there were still six cardinals who voted for Su Lin, whom they supposedly didn't know.
The Kamor family instantly understood that Su Lin did not just sell the Nightmare Mecha to them. They were not even sure that they were the first family to buy the Nightmare Mecha from Su Lin.
That's right, after Su Lin confirmed that the cargo route was open, he quickly contacted several other major families, including the five ancient theocratic families, and he didn't miss any of them.
Each family purchased hundreds of nightmare mechas from him, and some theocratic families who were now Cardinals also purchased from him.
Nowadays, he has not touched the theocratic family where the Pope belongs. Other theocratic families are more or less related to their business in Nim.
This is the situation Su Lin wants. Faced with a cross-generational technological product like the Nightmare Mecha, no one will be tempted. But when many people want it, they will resort to traps, and no one will come to Nim. trouble.
Because they were afraid that their actions would force Su Lin to take sides. Once the Nim Kingdom was pushed under an ancient theocratic family, it would be a big trouble.
As for whether the Nim Kingdom has mastered such technology, whether it will pose a threat to the Eternal Night Church, the major families have also considered it.
They believe that although the Nightmare Mecha is strong, it is for an army, but Su Lin is not strong enough. If the church really wants to attack the Nim Kingdom, it can send a few top masters to capture Su Lin alive, and there will be no trouble. solved.
What really puzzles the major families is that it is true that the Nim Kingdom now has money to purchase various materials from abroad, but who provides the 'gift of the night' (nightmare fuel) to the Nim Kingdom?
Some of them had sneaked into Nim Country and saw the 'cult' side of Nim Country, which has now become a kingdom of light, but they did not discover the source of nightmare fuel.
Some spies believed that the source of nightmare fuel might be related to the giant boiler, but there were always cutting-edge mechas patrolling the outside of the giant boiler, and Su Lin himself was often nearby, so they did not dare to get close.
In summer, Su Lin felt refreshed after taking a sip of ice-cold wine after a busy day.
"Lin Lin, if you sit on the fence like this, aren't you afraid that the church leaders will kill you in a fit of anger?"
Lu Zhixue looked at Su Lin's leisurely and contented look and couldn't help but ask.
"They dare not and are reluctant to let go."
Su Lin smiled and said, "The nightmare mecha is too tempting to them, and their respective strengths are opaque. They don't know how many others have purchased from me. If they kill me, their potential Is it weaker than others?"
He had long expected that spies would come to investigate. After one year of operation, he was no longer afraid of ordinary wars. What's more, the more clearly those people investigated, the more they became more aggressive.
The final processing of the nightmare mecha is in his own hands, and it is useless to steal the design drawings, because in his mind, the finishing touch that makes the mecha move and have combat intelligence is the secret method of Xuantian Sect, and he is Not many people can learn it.
Those people want to monopolize this technology, but they are also afraid that they will not be able to pry it out from themselves. However, if they kill themselves and destroy the Nim Kingdom, they are also afraid of suffering losses in the subsequent turmoil.
Yes, there is going to be a war.
Su Lin had already smelled the breath of war. The major theocratic families were dissatisfied with the current church rulers. Originally, they might have solved it through political means, but as an 'arms dealer', they had other solutions.
The Pope is not a fool. There is no way he doesn't know that a group of theocratic families are buying nightmare mechas.
When war is imminent, who will fight the arms dealers first? (End of chapter)
