The tool store is located at the junction of Central District and Chengbei District, close to Chengdong District. It is densely populated and has many people with purchasing power - to the north is the aristocratic district, and gentlemen with gun licenses always hope that the weapons in their hands can

Work faster, better, and more accurately; to the east is the Chengdong District, where civilians live, where ordinary extraordinary people and port travelers live, and low-level extraordinary people will try to buy themselves a gun (

Regardless of whether you have a gun license or not, because the issuance of gun licenses is very strict, except for church members and members of the Extraordinary Guild, you need to have a certain annual salary, be guaranteed by someone, and you need to show tax payment certificates in recent years to get a gun license.), and

Those travelers, such as the technology hunters who go deep into various Jedi places to discover various pre-era technologies, will arm themselves to the teeth.

Moreover, technology hunters have very high requirements for guns, because they are probably the only people who have witnessed the ancient weapons of the previous era.

Speaking of eras, Marin feels that people in this world are also very stubborn. According to church records, this world has entered the sixth era, which means that civilization has been interrupted five times, but each time carries the legacy of civilization.

The fire is still tenacious enough to illuminate the darkness after the apocalypse.

The time of the first great destruction is unknown. The record given in the book is that there was an explosion that shook the whole world at least 10,000 years ago (the specific year is completely unknown). Some of the desperate situations on this continent originated from that

Era, it is said that if a person enters it, it is impossible to survive without lead-added full-body equipment, a large number of expulsion spell scrolls, or high-level transcendent beings (Marin feels that all big explosions should be nuclear bombs that wipe out the ground.

, it is said that technology hunters can survive safely for at least four months if they wear protective equipment and use the scroll of expulsion spells every day. There must be a gap of at least one year between two explorations. According to radioactive elements such as cesium, strontium and

Judging from the half-life of the church, the church’s record year should not be a big problem)

Before the First Great Destruction there was the First Age, and after that there was the Second Age.

The second great destruction was the alien invasion. In the second millennium after the first great destruction, the alien invasion wiped out thousands of people in the entire world. The fire of civilization of almost all races was extinguished, but in the end, the gap tide

At the end of the era, all alien species were exiled back to the subspace, and the surviving races began to return to the surface again.

The Third Great Destruction, a thousand years after the Second Great Destruction, the cold wave that swept the entire world for unknown reasons caused countless losses. Some northern races were wiped out entirely because of this, and even the northern dwarves died.

Once - only a group of craftsmen hired by humans survived, and they became the common ancestors of the northern dwarves.

The Fourth Great Destruction occurred in the third millennium after the Third Great Destruction. A civil war in the Millennium Empire once again opened up the gap in the subspace. Humanity suffered heavy losses in this destruction.

The families that had been passed down since then were all destroyed, but this time humans blocked the offensive from the chaotic alien species, but because the losses were too great, they had to choose to shrink, a large amount of land was abandoned, and civilization began to regress. To this day, some

Ruins of towns from the Fourth Age can still be found in the wild.

The Fifth Great Destruction originated from the regression of civilization after the Fourth Great Destruction. It was not until a hundred years ago that this decline was curbed. During this period, the historical records of all races were lamented. In the Fourth Era,

All races have developed civilizations that are far higher than what they are now. However, after a foreign invasion, many people were lost due to the loss of many people. For example, some of the collections of the Harvest Goddess Church are obviously

The firearm is a relic of the Fourth Age, but its metal composition has not been analyzed to this day.

Marin took a look at it and could only say that because the damage was so severe, he could only recognize it as a gun. As for what else was outside, he couldn't figure out.

Xingyan’s father, Qinggangshi, is a technology hunter. An adventure in his early years left him with a lame leg, and then he began to become a blacksmith. My knees had a date with arrows, which is almost everyone in the Anvil family.

's fate.

The reason why he agreed to be the master of Marin's tool shop was because of some equipment sketches that Marin drew for Xingyan.

The girl Xingyan is a rare dwarf monk. The reason why she is an apprentice of the Harvest Goddess Church is because she has a human grandmother, who is also a devout believer of the Harvest Goddess Church.

As a church monk, Xingyan does not need to keep some inexplicable oaths like those monks in the sect (for example, the monks of a certain sect have a special oath of poverty and abide by the oath, and they cannot be equipped with any protective gear.

Lin felt that this sect was mentally ill. If the initial members died in a few waves, would your sect be ready to play Lich Monk?), so Marin drew beautiful and durable arm guards and leg guards for this girl.

.

After being seen by her father, this man went directly to Marin - he stubbornly believed that Marin must have gained knowledge about previous eras.

When preparing for the tool shop, Marin also decided to make the best use of everything and gave the dwarf master a bunch of tool drawings and concept drawings. The former was a practical tool that could be made casually, while the latter was like digging in ruins.

The relics that come out are the same, and I can only look at them with pleasure.

But after seeing the blueprints, Uncle Qinggangshi signed a contract with Marin without saying a word - in his opinion, so many drawings represented the absolute strength of the craftsmen, which was enough for him to devote his blacksmith skills to

Give it to Marin.

So in addition to Marin having to face temptations from the Church of the God of War every now and then, this uncle has been luring Marin to become a craftsman all day long. He always said that children of frost giants can get twice the result with half the effort just by learning to blacksmith.

It would be a real loss if you don’t have the strength to be a craftsman. If you can build your own equipment, it will definitely be the equipment that best suits you.

Marin almost wanted to learn, but what stopped him was the dwarf uncle's last words.

"You learn from me, and I will marry my daughter Xingyan to you."

How can you let people learn the skills of a craftsman from you? This is too much!

So every time he came to the tool store, Marin would bring Faye with him. With the mixed-blood elf girl there, the dwarf uncle would not dare to make any mistakes.

As for the business of the tool shop, despite the small number of people, basically most of the customers are through ordering channels. For example, the Technology Hunter Guild in Fort Carter recently ordered a hundred heavy-duty long gun barrels and two hundred sets from the tool shop.

Sight combination - the 200-meter dispersion rate of the heavy barrel on the market and the barrel in the Marin store is 2 times different, and the sight combination is a notched mechanical sight with a mirror twice as long as it is placed on the side, because

Unable to refine tritium, Marin used the spent fire crystal waste stones, smashed them and polished them to replace the tritium as a use item on the sight.

It only requires a little bit of psychic energy to use it for a night instead of tritium light. If you can become a technological hunter, you will use psychic energy to some extent, so this sight combination is very popular among technological hunters.

This is the first finished product made by Green Steel Stone from Marin's concept drawing. Marin and he split the accounts. The disadvantage is that they charge less money. The advantage is that this dwarf uncle is with the dwarf craftsmen's guild.

A patent right has been registered for this thing, and anyone can imitate it, but every time one is made, Marin needs to pay a fee worth twenty standard Mowes currency.

It is said that the dwarves like this sight set very much, and several sight combinations prepared by Qinggangshi for Marin have been registered. What awaits Marin is a happy time of collecting money.

I heard that the God of Craftsmen of the Dwarves was also a little happy with this invention. The Church of the God of Craftsmen of the Dwarves also had contact with Green Steel Stone. They wanted to bring Green Steel Stone back to the dwarf kingdom, but he refused with a contract.

.

This makes Marin somewhat more confident in this uncle.

Speaking back, although the elves and dwarves didn't deal with each other very well, at least the uncle and Faye's account books were clearly correct - Xingyan had been an apprentice for so many years, and keeping accounts was a simple job.

"By the way, boy, don't you ask my daughter to dance at the bonfire party tonight?"

Looking at the ledger, it seems that Uncle Qinggangshi still hasn't given up on his marriage... No, it should be his intention to invite Marin to become a craftsman's apprentice.

"Marin already has my dance partner." Faye raised her eyebrows and declared her sovereignty in front of the dwarf uncle.

Facing the elf girl, the dwarf pursed his lips and raised his hands helplessly: "I'm going to continue working. I won't send you two away if you have something to do."

So Marin took the girls and left the tool store. As he was leaving, he remembered that Jessica wanted a mountaineering pickaxe, so he went to the warehouse to choose one for her, and he kept the account in his head.

The birthday gift I want is worth one hundred and twenty yuan, which should make the werewolf girl very happy.

………………

The National Publishing House is located in the middle of the Central District, which belongs to the administrative district. This is the most secure place. The National Publishing House is located here in a small three-story building.

When Marin arrived, there were still 20 minutes before the appointment time. The three of them were originally going to sit in the rest area on the first floor with the cool magic circle for a while, but they didn't expect that as soon as they sat down, someone came roaring out with a team over there.

, then a lady dressed as a secretary came over: "Is it Mr. Marin Gayatt?"

"Yes." Marin nodded - he had only been to the National Publishing House twice and had never seen this person before.

"I am Kallen Lily Milton, Mr. President's third secretary. Mr. President is waiting for you inside." The secretary here was still talking, and over there Marin and the others saw a man who was beaten up.

The guy with a bloody face was dragged down the steps by two strong men.

"Uh, this is..." Faye frowned unbearably.

"This is the gentleman in front of you. He was found to have problems during the third interview. The team just went to the printing factory and must prevent this book from being printed." The secretary said with some regret.

Said: "In this world, there is another book that is destined to never be finished."

But no, the author may even lose his life.

Marin sighed, and then saw the author being dragged away suddenly struggling.

"What I wrote is obviously the best love story! Why! You are slandering me!!" After shouting this, the gentleman spat out a mouthful of blood mist and became silent again.

Marin looked at the secretary again.

The secretary pursed her lips: "Do you think it's normal for a man who sees a normal human being to be a heterogeneous species due to a brain injury, but a heterogeneous man to be a normal person and fall in love with a heterogeneous species?"

Faye and Maya shook their heads like rattles.

Then the secretary turned her attention to Marin.

"What do you think?"

"Hurry up and drag it away and burn it." Marin said calmly.

Then the secretary showed a satisfied smile: "Yes, you are right. The author who is polluted by chaos can only be purified by fire."

Marin thought so.

Because there is a saying that goes well.

Genius is half a step above mortals.
Chapter completed!
