However, even this level of industrial capability is enough to shock the worldview of these tribal people.
The 1.5-ton forging hammer is larger than any forging hammer ever used by humans. No mortal can swing such a hammer.
But driven by the electricity generated by the slave rats, it only takes a few minutes to complete the processing of a rough breastplate. At this speed, the factory here can produce hundreds of breastplates a day.<
/p>
As long as...
Green sparks flashed from the slave rat generator, attracting everyone's attention. After the engineering warlock saw the situation over there clearly, the corners of his eyes twitched.
Under the slave rat's hard running, the dimensional stone generator seemed to be damaged, and the slave rat was completely motionless in the "hamster wheel".
Right, this is the rat factory that Esky is familiar with.
Even in Eski's factories that strictly control standards, there are always many accidents throughout the year, let alone such primitive ones.
"Changing slaves is a waste of life."
The slave above has been electrocuted and smells like meat, so it can only be used as dinner for other clan rats.
The components of the generator are installed under the "hamster wheel". The casing and chain are intact, but the parts inside...
The claws touched the shell, and green electric sparks caused ripples around Eski's claws.
This is what happens when things malfunction.
The Engineer Warlock sighed and tried to take off the fixed cover. Since it was a rat-man component, the Engineer Warlock needed to repair it at any time. Their fixings were not fixed with screws or other fasteners, but were easy for the Engineer Warlock to open.
.
The condition inside was just as he expected. Many parts were burned, and the copper coil had turned into a copper block. The appearance of the coil was completely invisible.
"Hey, clan rats over there, tell humans to turn their backs and stop looking."
Following the order of the engineer warlock, the clan rats almost cursed and beat all the humans in the prison to turn around.
"What are you doing?"
Wu Ling is puzzled.
"I don't want these hairless monsters to see what the core components of the generator look like."
The engineering warlock said while reciting the spell belonging to the wind of metal in an attempt to turn these scraps into their original appearance.
"Although the possibility is low, it is possible that it can be copied."
Wu Ling was even more puzzled. These monkeys could imitate them, so couldn’t she?
Eski's attention was not in front of her. The flowing sweat wetted the engineering warlock's white hair. In the eyes of the witch spirit and the engineering warlock, the yellow wind of magic was gathering in front of the engineering warlock. As the engineer warlock spoke Anoquayan's words clearly, the magic power of the metal wind was rapidly consumed.
But he doesn't need to worry for the time being. As long as the compatibility is not very low, the magical wind must be enough. It is nothing more than a matter of the mage's spell-casting proficiency and language ability.
The cost and difficulty of controlling the same element are relatively low. People can be easily turned into pigs, and iron swords can be easily turned into iron shields. However, turning an iron sword into a titanium alloy sword requires a large amount of energy.
The magic power will change back after a short duration.
"Trouble."
Esky complained and put down the newly repaired copper coil.
The coil doesn't matter, what's important is the other components, which can't be repaired precisely by relying purely on memory.
Whether it is the previous gun barrel, two-handed sword, or dagger, you only need to dissolve other elements evenly into the iron element base, then harden the surface as needed, polish the edge, etc., and then carve the required
The runes do the job.
After all, their shapes are not that complicated.
But without drawings, Eski really couldn't repair the structures of these power generation equipment.
When he was in Skaven City before, he didn't try to repair the equipment failure with Metal Wind, but just bought a new one.
To repair equipment, we need to improve the equipment and make workers familiar with it.
Eski glanced at the clan rats and slave rats surrounding him, and couldn't help but lament in his heart.
The thousand slave rats here are all newly recruited. The group that originally belonged to Esky abandoned them because they were worried about seeing the Scurvy clan.
These things probably don't even know how to operate the machine, and everything will have to be done all over again.
Putting down the complicated machine components, Esky went to check on the furnace again.
In addition to developing motors, this place is also frequently damaged.
Midway, he saw some humans turning around secretly, but the furnace didn't matter.
The furnaces of the ratmen are different from the furnaces of humans. They do not have a very fixed shape. They can be manufactured as convenient as they want - they may need to be rebuilt at any time, because the furnaces may be damaged at any time due to excessive temperature.
A trouble that often occurs is that the energy activity of the warpstone powder added to the furnace is very low when it is added, so the furnace temperature cannot meet the smelting requirements, so the inexperienced operator adds more warpstone powder.
However, the activity of the warpstone is changing at any time, and the amplitude and pattern of changes are very extreme. Esky once reluctantly made a device in Skaven Castle to measure the amplitude of energy fluctuations based on the intensity of the current.
Instruments.
Then he saw that the numbers on the instrument sometimes stayed low without moving, and sometimes started dancing, or even suddenly exploded, causing him to need to make a new measuring instrument.
Therefore, the operator added some more warpstone powder, and the furnace temperature seemed to be reached. However, as the smelting operation continued, the warpstone powder suddenly became active, and the furnace temperature rose instantly, exceeding the limit that the refractory material could withstand.
.
Then it is necessary to change the furnace and operator.
The temperature of the furnace could not be measured before, so when metal smelting, in addition to formulas, we also had to rely on experience.
Even with the knowledge of the previous world, Esky did not remember blackbody radiation or how to apply Planck's law. He could only roughly remember their names. Therefore, he could not make even the simplest hidden filament optical pyrometer.
.
However, now that we have the nine volumes of Tzeentch, we don’t have to worry so much about this problem.
While flipping through it to kill time this month, Eski accidentally created a method of determining the temperature of an object using the activity level of Akshay, who smelled of cinnamon.
In the eyes of ordinary mages, Aksha is manic, but Esky discovered that this magical wind has an extremely stable rise and fall trend. As the temperature rises, its activity will change steadily. p>
So, after using the magic of the wind of heaven (wind of the sky) to measure the temperature of the ice-water mixture and the temperature of boiling water, the engineering warlock created a non-contact temperature measurement with an error of no more than 20 degrees in a 2000-degree environment.
Law.
Just like now, the red and blue lights on Eski's staff light up, and the temperature in the furnace begins to be measured.
1700 degrees.
The huge energy of the warpstone allows the Ratmen to raise the temperature of the furnace to a level unimaginable by medieval humans without even needing a bellows or similar blowing equipment. If the blowing equipment had not been used for other purposes, maybe the Ratmen would have deleted it.
.
It's just that there's something wrong with the magical energy in this furnace.
Eski inexplicably felt that the energy inside was very active, and he quickly used the continuous temperature measurement magic again.
The furnace temperature has exceeded 1800 degrees and is still rising.
The refractory bricks that made up the furnace were already showing signs of melting. With Esky's quick eyesight and quick hands, the red and blue light on the staff immediately turned green.
Dimensional stance!
The green flames melted the inside of the furnace, and the melted liquid was bound by the power of magic.
But even so, the furnace was still useless and had to be rebuilt with refractory bricks.
"Who added the warpstone powder?"
The angry voice of the engineer warlock spread to all the rats,
No rat dares to speak out, the furnace is worth much more than their lives.
Eski's eyes were fixed on those factory workers who thought they could take credit before, and he was even thinking about whether to kill them at eleven.
The heated brain quickly calms down, which is the strength of the Rat Man.
Eski asked again.
"Who is in charge of the production line?"
Still no one responded to him. The rats clamped their tails tightly and lowered their heads, as if they would not be unlucky as long as their eyes did not meet the engineering warlock.
"That's it, then it seems that the only option is to sacrifice you all to the Horned Rat."
Esky sighed.
The newly arrived clan rats immediately took out the blades in their pockets.
But these rats who were originally in the factory knelt on the ground one after another.
A rat crawled to the engineering warlock's side in a kneeling position and said.
"The great, benevolent, almighty master, no one really arranged today's production. This factory was originally destined for the great engineering warlock. The humble slave did not know that the great engineering warlock would give the factory to the great master."<
/p>
He looked up at his master and said.
"That means there is no one responsible."
The engineering warlock's eyes seemed to contain a coldness that would kill him immediately. The clan rat quickly lowered its head, emptied its glands, and released its respect for its master through the smell of fear.
"Of course, of course, of course there is someone responsible. It's that one, Cobb. Yes, that's him. He added too much dimensional stone powder, and he didn't check the generator."
As he said that, the rat, who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed on the ground, pointed at one of the workers.
"You know what the problem is very well, you are so familiar with the process."
The clan rat broke out in cold sweat. Damn it, he shouldn't have added those details.
However, isn’t the process familiar to every worker of the Skary clan? After all, every worker of the Skry clan will try to become an engineering warlock.
Regardless of whether they will be squeezed to death in the factory before they take the first step, that is something only the Horned Rat knows.
"Then your life is spared."
The engineering warlock patted his shoulder and said to the remaining workers.
"Stop all the machines. I need time to draw the blueprints, and you will modify them. If the modifications are not up to standard, your lives will be sacrificed. Prepare to be inspired by the Big Horned Rat."
After about three horned rat hours, the Gray Seer used the big clock in the city to complete three punctual chimes, and Esky finally made arrangements for his more than a thousand men.
Eski built structures that could protect from the wind above the three large factories, and arranged all the extra people besides the guards inside.
These factories are built with stone-like materials and unknown white materials. All structures are integrally formed, and bearing a little more weight will not affect the stability of the building.
Regardless of whether it will cause non-combat attrition, Esky has no extra energy to take care of these clan rats and slave rats.
After working for a long time, the engineering warlock was so exhausted that he wanted to rest in the factory, but he was woken up by a visitor again.
"Great Engineer Warlock, what do you want from me?"
While rubbing his temples vigorously, the engineering warlock asked.
The person standing in front of him is not an engineering warlock. Although he has goggles on his eyes, the thin magic power in his body can only be called an apprentice by an engineering warlock.
The engineering apprentice asked the slave rat to take out a box and respectfully handed it into Eski's hands.
When I opened it, I found an iron can inside that seemed to be able to be twisted open.
"What is this?"
the engineer asked, without touching the thing.
Any product of an engineering warlock is dangerous enough. Without sufficient understanding, it is best not to touch it. Otherwise, only the Horned Rat will know whether it will have any adverse effects on those who touch it.
The apprentice was not afraid and carefully picked up the tin can and slowly twisted it open.
Inside is a glass jar, and the jar is filled with a green liquid? No, not just a liquid, but a mixture of liquid and gas. On the green liquid surface, there is also a layer of green mist.
The apprentice explained.
"Poison gas bombs, according to some new research, when used, only need to open the iron shell and then drop the glass container inside to the ground."
As he spoke, he twisted the metal shell back on and gently placed the gas bomb into the box padded with flexible material.
"This is prepared for the engineer warlock's battle tomorrow. We must kill the warlord no matter what."
Eski shook his head in his mind. This thing didn't seem to be very stable, otherwise it wouldn't need a metal shell to protect it, and asked again.
"Have gas masks and protective clothing been prepared for me?"
As soon as the question was raised, the apprentice asked the slave rat on the other side to hand over a jar.
The engineering warlock opened it and found that inside was a respirator mask that was very similar to the one on his mouth.
"This is a gas mask disguised as a breathing filter. The poisonous gas this time is not corrosive, so there is no need to worry about contact with the skin. However, engineers must wear observers to protect their eyes."
After hearing what the apprentice said, Esky sneered.
"If you do this, it seems like I can't beat him. However, I can deal with those idiots who don't know the heights of the sky behind me, so I'll accept it."
