A formal invitation to a mysterious place usually simply states the purpose to avoid unexpected situations that catch the invitee off guard, because this is quite rude behavior. Furthermore, after receiving a surprise or frightened magician, will the next moment be like
No one can predict whether someone will throw a fireball into his face. Of course, there are also those who throw fireballs for excuses and look for opportunities to take revenge.
Usually, whether to accept an invitation depends not only on the purpose, but also on the face of the inviter. A formal invitation sent by a Dharma Saint through a powerful person is not so easy to refuse. Moreover, the Dharma Saint has stabbed the opponent before.
He was generous enough not to pursue the matter further, and regardless of whether he won or not, there was always less trouble. This favor also made it difficult for Lin to refuse the invitation.
This time, the real reason that made Lin decide to put aside the affairs at hand and attend this dinner was that he was also interested in the purpose of the Dharma Saint. The Dharma Saint Babak Abu Nahan came as a private person.
The purpose of inviting someone in a non-official capacity was to introduce a friend, Nguyen Van Viet from the Gia Long Chamber of Commerce.
This new friend is not completely unfamiliar to Lin. In the past, the aristocratic couple introduced by the white swordsman William Greco on the golden waterway of the Vida Military Kingdom, Nguyen Thi Hue, the wife of Baron Engels, came from Gia Long.
The family behind the Chamber of Commerce.
Although he had obtained a document similar to a letter of introduction from the other party, he could use it to trade with the Ruan family in various places, that is, the Jialong Chamber of Commerce. But Lin never had the opportunity to use this letter of introduction.
Even after arriving in the Holy City, he had good relations with Dean Kabanbai and did not go to the Jialong Chamber of Commerce to do business. The biggest reason was not that he did not dare to ask for or owe this favor, but because the Jialong Chamber of Commerce mainly
Their business items are bulk grains, and their products are mainly crops. Therefore, their service targets are also noble lords or kings from various places.
When magicians buy things, they usually have many and miscellaneous items, but the quantity is not large, which is different from the bulk-based transaction type of noble lords. A chamber of commerce that can do business with nobles from all over the world is to see
It’s not like the magician’s petty quarrels.
Therefore, someone who doesn’t know the weight of that letter of introduction doesn’t intend to test the other party’s attitude with his own face. Anyway, as long as he can buy what he needs, the Chamber of Commerce introduced by Dean Kabambai, in terms of strength, is
It is also one of the few in the Holy City.
Now that someone from this family came to visit Lin, of course he would be interested in the other party's purpose. Apart from anything else, just because the other party has a crop like 'rice' in his hands, it is worth meeting him. The staple food of Midi
, it is still mainly wheat and potatoes. Except for rice, which was seen at a banquet on the golden waterway of the military country last time, it is completely extinct in other places.
Because no one in the family likes this kind of occasion, they go there just as a foil, or they are busy with other things, so someone has to go to the meeting alone. Who did these people learn this damn personality from?
From his brand new robes, he found the one that looked the most decent and put it on. Although this was a good material among ordinary clothes, compared with ordinary magicians, it was quite shabby. The only thing to be thankful for was
The thing is, at least it doesn't feel shabby.
When I was traveling in the past, the people I met on the road all looked like they were dusty, so I didn't pay much attention to it. But now that I have settled down, the people who come and go are all big shots, or they are experienced magicians. But I am a deputy.
Even a fledgling magic apprentice wouldn't know how to dress up, and sometimes it makes me blush just thinking about it.
Fortunately, the method of making clothes with magic silk has been figured out, the materials are all prepared, and the preliminary arrangements have been made. All I have to do is wait for myself to go back and take charge. The first time I turned on the computer, I was really worried that I wasn't watching.
The location of the dinner was the residence of a small nobleman of the Gwana Empire in the holy city of Estari. But that nobleman or his family members rarely lived here because their family territory was near the holy city. Despite this,
There are still servants and a complete set of chefs here, because the little noble will lend this place to his friends to host banquets or to live in the Holy City for a short period of time.
Sometimes friends of friends would come to borrow it, and there were many big shots among them. Of course, the little noble was happy to do such favors, and at the same time expanded his personal connections. Therefore, this noble residence is quite famous in the Holy City. Especially the chef's skills.
Everyone who has eaten it is full of praise.
Because the mansion is some distance away from my home in the Holy City, and I don’t want to use flash magic to damage this outfit. In the past, I would have to borrow a carriage from the college to travel. With the coat of arms of the college, although it is not possible to travel in
He was running rampant in the Holy City, but he could still scare many people. At least it was more useful than his own shabby outfit among magicians.
After Lin thought about it for a while, he walked into the workshop of the silver-bearded dwarf.
The outer wall of the workshop is equipped with soundproofing and other magic circles with multiple effects, so after the door is closed, it is difficult to detect what is being done inside from the outside. But as soon as you enter the door, you will find a different world. A bright and different world.
The magical modern workshop of the earth appears before someone's eyes.
On the side are chains and pulleys hanging the disassembled peace weapons, and diagonally above there is a miniaturized hybrid engine transmitting power. Countless sensing pipelines are connected to various parts, making this power armor
Detailed data can be obtained from simulations without actual testing.
This achievement was almost all completed independently by the Silverbeard dwarves. Lin and Fen could only give them some suggestions when they asked questions, or give them a direction when they had no goals. All of them were verbal help and no involvement.
The program is being edited.
On the other side, it is the car that was mentioned to the dwarves not long ago. Using magic materials regardless of the cost, the speed of hand-making a car is much faster than someone's imagination. Just like the car in front of you, the main structure has been completed, only
There is some skin left that has not been wrapped.
You must know that the Silverbeard Dwarves have been researching power armor structures since the Empire. They have accumulated a lot of technology for many machine structures. In addition, at the end of last year, they cooperated with someone to urgently build an airship on the snowy mountains.
, allowing them to perfect a set of standardized car design drawings and actually build a car, it can be said that they are very familiar with it.
But for the two major structures of suspension and chassis, they would be fooling themselves if they didn't have any reference experience. Fortunately, although someone has never built a real car, he has assembled a remote control car at least, and the relevant design structure and principles can be understood.
Say four, five or six.
Even so, Silverbeard Dwarf did not handle the structure of the chassis very well. The most important thing is that the space configuration is not well arranged. There are too many parts in some places, or the structure is too high.
; In some places, it is upside down. As a result, the engine room at the front of the car is high and low, and it is also difficult to attach the skin.
When the skin is attached to the machine, it will look strange. If it is square, there will be a bunch of empty space inside. Some people are convinced by this virtue. Fortunately, they at least remember to balance the weights, so they don't
Let this first car in the world be heavy at the same time and light at the same time.
Small areas such as seat cushions, doors, headlights, and rear mirrors have been completed. The parts that have not yet been completed are the skin of the engine room, the closing of the rear compartment, and the overall consistent paint design.
Because someone would come in from time to time, pay attention to the progress, and discuss with the dwarves. Therefore, Jermaine and others did not act like they were guarding against the two little devils and a few naughty cats. They would treat people or cats as soon as they saw them.
He was kicked out. It’s because there are many dangerous places and items in the workshop. Those ignorant brats will only cause trouble when they come in, and nothing good will happen.
However, Jermaine still took a rag, wiped his hands, and came over and said: "Brother, it only takes two days to complete the first trial car. Where do you plan to conduct road testing?"
?”
"How about we do it now?"
"What?" The silver-bearded dwarves who were working all raised their heads and looked at someone in surprise.
Not caring about the expressions of the dwarves, Lin asked: "Can this trial No. 1 machine run away?"
"Yes, yes, but..."
Lin asked again: "Did any problems occur in your simulation?"
"That's not true. It's just the finishing touches?"
"Since there's no problem, that's fine. I just have to go out for something right now, so I haven't bought a new carriage because I'm waiting for it. Now that I have the opportunity, wouldn't it be a waste of your hard work if you don't put it to use?
." With that said, Lin got into the driver's seat.
Most of the layout of this prototype car directly refers to the configuration of left-hand drive cars on Earth. It includes the steering wheel, gear lever, accelerator, brake, handbrake, clutch, etc. In this regard, someone is not going to leave Ginsu alone.
The dwarves' imaginations are unleashing some unknown creativity.
As for the instrument panel, because it is a small place and there are no mechanical instruments to choose from, it can only be directly programmed to control the digital instrument. Therefore, I have no special requirements for how to design this part. I just say that the accuracy must be sufficient.
Just be reliable.
What the Silverbeard dwarves did was to take the equipment that someone used on the airship and use it on a vehicle. So when Lin saw a car with a level and height gauge, his first thought was to find out if there were any.
Red button. After pressing it, the car will transform and fly.
I couldn't find the red button, so I couldn't say how disappointed I was. I was just nostalgic for that good movie from the past. Lin asked again: "Is there enough gasoline in the tank?"
"The engine I installed is a four-cylinder hybrid engine. It can be filled with gasoline or driven by the power of the magic stone. Do you want to add gasoline to it?"
"Fill up the fuel tank and replace the magic stone with a new one. On the way out, I will use the gasoline mode and on the return trip I will use the power mode. I will test the actual loss in both modes."
"Okay." Jermaine responded, greeted Riley, and took a pump to pump the gasoline from one of the small oil tanks into the car's fuel tank.
After everything was ready, the dwarves pulled up the iron rolling door of the workshop. Lin pressed the ignition switch and stepped on the accelerator slightly. When the familiar sound came into his ears, he couldn't help but hold the steering wheel with both hands, feeling a little nervous. This is not
The sense of mission that is about to start an era in a different world is just the excitement of a big boy when he gets a new toy.
