Sin City, Safe Zone, this is the only area in Sin City with a clear order, and it is also the area with the neatest city appearance.
Chaos can only bring ignorance and backwardness, while order can bring progress and civilization. This is clearly reflected in Sin City. According to Mina's description, when the city was first established, there were a large number of standard houses, neatly
Wooden houses are very good conditions for people of this era.
The purpose of building these infrastructures is to reduce criminals' desire to rebel and reduce the cost of suppression.
But as the number of criminals increased and the city was used longer and longer, most of the houses were destroyed in the fighting, and some of the habitable houses were almost buried in feces and the stench was unbearable.
There is no order and no one maintains the sanitation of the city. The final result is that the city turns into a large garbage dump, so that the top class in the sin city can only live in a room without the smell of excrement, and there is help.
To the extent of emptying the toilet.
In contrast, the safe zone does not allow random fighting, but has a basis for establishing order. Some weak people who had to flee here, in order not to be driven away by the alchemists here, spontaneously organized and cleaned up the area.
, providing a good environment for the work of alchemists, even collecting construction waste, and building a brand new building like the Government Affairs Office.
The safe zone in the city of sin is like the last loneliness of civilization in the wilderness, like a candle in the wind, interpreting the pride of humanity in the realm of God.
Lan Nuo was walking on the gravel road, surrounded by a dozen sanitation workers with bruises and bruises.
He was also helpless. The city was full of chaos, and information could hardly flow. The weak people trapped in the safe zone did not know that the management of the city had changed hands. Seeing the appearance of Lan Nuo's little brat, and
He was not a strong man, so he thought he was a newcomer who was coming here to seek asylum, so he immediately organized a group of people with brooms to drive him away.
Although the order in the safe zone is maintained by an alliance of weak people, it does not mean that the alliance is harmonious. On the contrary, they are extremely exclusive. The number of people this safe zone can accommodate is limited, and new entrants will only bring them problems.
Due to the pressure of survival, a scene of Lan Nuo beating up eighteen sanitation workers by himself appeared at the door of the safe zone.
When more than a dozen people faced Lan Nuo, they immediately showed low eyebrows and submissive expressions. Those who could enter the safe zone with such a strong attitude must be the top figures in Sin City. They all came here to find the alchemists to customize magic tools.
Until now, they have not realized that this city has changed its owner.
Lan Nuo walked among the brick and wooden buildings that were emitting black smoke. He looked at the buildings that were pieced together just enough to maintain a stable structure, and felt a strong smell of wasteland coming to his face.
Lan Nuo walked along the gravel road and came to the largest masonry building here. This can be said to be the cleanest and tidiest place in Sin City. There is no foul smell of feces and no trace of blood on the brick walls.
There is even a small yard at the door of the house, which is planted with various plants. This is a luxury in this city full of chaos.
Lan Nuo came to the door of the room, looked at the sign hanging on the door saying "No one allowed in during work, no one allowed to enter", smiled, pulled the wooden box next to him, sat on it and waited quietly.
This is respect for knowledge. Compared to those who pursue personal power, Lan Nuo admires those who diligently pursue the endless knowledge of the world.
But respect is one thing, sitting here is another matter. The spiritual power of Tianmeng Iceworm spread out and enveloped the hut. Although this is already the most luxurious building in this area, it occupies an area of
The area is only over fifty square meters and the height is only three floors. Lan Nuo can see every detail in the room through his mental power.
As the scene in the room came into view, Lan Nuo saw a man with a chicken coop head busy. Judging from the appearance, this man was not very good. He had thick dark circles under his eyes, rough skin, and wrinkled clothes.
Full of food scraps.
The living conditions were like living in a dead house without going out for ten years. Lan Nuo was not convinced about this kind of living conditions. If he were left to live alone, it would probably not be much better than this.
Compared to this person who is informal about his life, his workspace seems much tidier.
The various knives used by the sculptor are neatly hung on the wooden boards on the wall. On the workbench is his homemade vise. On the table on the other side are many glassware, filled with collected animal tissues and plant seeds.
, mineral powder, and a small stove to boil the liquid in the glass bottle. He seems to often use this method to extract substances from raw materials.
At the position closest to the window is his forging furnace, a simple mechanical structure that uses the rotation of the windmill outside the window to pull the bellows, causing the coke in the furnace to burn red, and to forge rare metals with various properties.
The neatest thing is the desk that is divided into separate compartments with wooden boards. There are various drawings on it that are incomprehensible to outsiders. They are marked with notes one by one using symbols that only he can understand. Each one is simply bound.
The book records all kinds of knowledge he has accumulated over the years.
Lan Nuo hasn't recognized all the words in this world, but he has memorized the corresponding meanings of different words by relying on his mental power. At this time, he corresponds one by one, like looking up in a dictionary, and translates the contents of the book.
"When the petals of fly-eaters are soaked in alcohol for a day, the liquor will turn yellow. The steam that cools after heating is a dark yellow liquid. It looks like urine and smells like it. It's too bad. I tasted it.
One mouthful, this is the rigor of an alchemist! It’s definitely not me having any quirks! My mouth is numb and I can’t feel my mouth anymore.
This is a very powerful paralysis agent. I heated the yellow liquid and let the mouse breathe the evaporated water vapor. The mouse fainted. I used a knife to cut open the mouse's body, but it didn't struggle at all. I saw its heart.
Jumping, it’s weird, but I think the desperadoes out there need him, so that when they clean their wounds, they won’t scream like a slaughtered pig.”
This is a very short record, but there is no doubt that it is a legitimately important discovery for the world. Anesthetics were invented.
After flipping through a few more books, Lan Nuo found that the records about soul guides only accounted for about one-third. It’s no wonder that people in this world call them alchemists. What these people do is indeed the same as the soul guides of later generations.
There is a big difference.
In this pre-civilized era, an all-round scientist across several fields can appear, and the one in front of me is obviously that one.
At this time, this man with a chicken coop is distressedly facing an organ removed from a certain creature. There are two tentacles on this organ. If you hit the organ body with a hammer, an electric current will be released between the tentacles.
And he was inserting the tentacles into the water, tapping the organ repeatedly, and then using a glass tube to collect the gas produced on the two tentacles.
But soon, the gas stopped producing, and no matter how hard he knocked, there was no more current being released.
"It's useless again. The lightning lizard's fang glands are too fragile, so it extracts so little fire element and flame potion." The man muttered, carefully measuring and sealing the two glass tubes, and put them in place.
I looked out the window and saw Lan Nuo sitting below waiting quietly. He said angrily: "Come back tomorrow! I'm not free today."
Lan Nuo watched the whole experiment and understood why this guy was in a bad mood, so he said straightforwardly: "If you want to extract the fire element from your mouth, I think I can think of a way."
"Huh? You crazy people still understand this? Come up! Let me see!" Unexpectedly, the man did not hold any arrogant prejudice against Lan Nuo, but directly invited him upstairs.
Arriving at the workshop on the second floor, Lan Nuo saw a man cleaning the experimental bench and throwing the nearly smashed lizard glands into the trash can.
"The biggest problem I'm facing now is that dead lightning lizards can't provide me with stable electricity. If what you say can help, you can help me catch a living one, that would be a big help." The man spoke.
The tone was like the NPC in the game who sent out an errand task, asking Lan Nuo to help him catch a live lightning lizard.
However, Lan Nuo would not follow his ideas. He shook his head and said: "You want electricity, why do you have to stick to animals? I can give you the electricity you want."
"Are you a soul master with thunder and lightning attributes? The one whose martial soul can discharge electricity instinctively? That's even better!" The man was overjoyed. In Sin City, there are many soul masters with thunder and lightning attributes, just like fire and wind attributes. But
Most people cannot discharge when they cannot use soul skills.
"You misunderstood, I need two magnets, you must have them!" Lan Nuo made a simple generator on the spot, and then connected it to the windmill with a variable speed gear, and the rotor rotated rapidly with the copper wire wrapped around it.
, there was a faint crackling sound between the two wires, and clusters of electric sparks made the chicken coop man's eyes widen.
"How did you do it? Is this an element converter? You converted the power of the wind element into the thunder element? The thunder element can also convert the water element into the fire element! It's incredible!"
Lan Nuo: "..."
Although there are many shortcomings in this understanding, Lanno did not laugh at it. The process of trying to construct a theory that can explain the world is not ridiculous. On the contrary, it is a respectable behavior.
The dancing man saw Lan Nuo being left alone for a long time, and then he remembered to introduce himself: "My name is Howard, and I am an alchemist. Nice to meet you."
Lan Nuo nodded, relying on his respect for the scientist, he suppressed the sentence "You are too happy too early" in his throat.
"My name is Lan Nuo, an explorer from across the sea. I come here to learn knowledge."
Howard subconsciously thought that the other side of the sea was the Sun-Moon Continent, which is what the people of this continent call Middle-earth, so he was not too surprised and just continued to curiously discuss the principles of the element converter with Lan Nuo.
Lan Nuo patiently explained to Howard what electromagnetic induction was. During the explanation and experiment process, Lan Nuo also noticed that due to the interference of soul power, there were huge deviations in the physical parameters of this world, such as the increase in the efficiency of electromagnetic induction.
, the resistance of the conductor moving within the magnetic field becomes significantly greater.
The original experience is still useful, but if it is applied rigidly to this world, problems will definitely arise.
During the discussion, the topic finally turned to the aspect of soul guidance devices. After Howard's introduction, Lan Nuo understood that the current soul guidance devices did not have a core array, and all structures were directly carved on the
It is made of a whole piece of rare metal and has no modular design.
Under Howard's explanation, Lan Nuo discovered that soul guidance technology is ultimately a type of rune technology. Different runes have different functions, and different arrangements have new meanings. In fact, carvings are not as mysterious as imagined.
Importantly, Howard said that he does not have any rigorous carving techniques. Many times he even uses a vise to hold the workpiece to carve, focusing on the order of runes and the arrangement of the wires on the soul guide.
Lan Nuo maliciously speculated that later generations set the threshold for making soul guidance devices so high that they had to be carved by hand, perhaps just to monopolize soul guidance technology in the hands of soul masters.
When it comes to the arrangement and combination of runes, that is Lanno's home field. Currently, Howard has summarized eight basic runes and thirty-four derived runes.
There are too many possibilities for the arrangement and combination of these runes, which cannot be done by him alone. Moreover, different arrangements will produce different effects due to different placement positions, and the difference is that Howard
It cannot be solved with current mathematical tools.
After explaining the most basic permutations, solid geometry, and analytic geometry to Howard, Lan Nuo enthusiastically recommended calculus to him. Howard, who was ignorant and ignorant, did not know what kind of person he was about to face.
A subject with an explosive mentality.
While Howard was immersed in calculus and felt like he had discovered a new world, Lan Nuo also obtained his first soul guidance device, the most basic soul guidance launcher, which can erupt high-speed airflow and launch physical projectiles. Its power can only be said to be very powerful.
Generally speaking, it is not as good as the most common rifle, but it makes Lan Nuo very excited.
Being able to achieve this result in the first attempt means that the development potential of soul guidance devices is huge. As for the storage soul guidance device that Lan Nuo is most concerned about, Howard gave a set of rune arrangements.
"According to this arrangement, you can make the simplest space props, but the capacity is very small, and the space is not as big as a backpack. The capacity of space props, compared to runes, depends more on the raw material, which is a sapphire-like mineral.
I only have a small piece here, which I have already used."
After listening to this, Lan Nuo concluded that there is no need to think about the cabbage price of storage soul guides, but the cost of making storage soul guides in the Sun and Moon Continent is only about one thousandth of that in Douluo. What follows?
The strategy is to make money, mine, and build bases in the Sun and Moon Continent!
