Goblin engineering is actually an engineering technology originated from goblins in the Endless Continent.
It contains part of the magic technology, part of the alchemy materials, and some of the concepts of mechanical engineering.
After many factors were mixed together, Goblin Engineering was formed.
You could say this is the sword and sorcery version of mechanical engineering.
It has a bit of the mechanical charm of Earth.
At this time, he remembered the goal he had promised at that time.
That is to rob the handsome guy who is greedy for money! Rob the black-hearted goblin!
Before I knew it, both of these small goals were accomplished.
Although the handsome boy is underage, the goblins are just a traveling merchant team.
But Zong Shen believes that as long as he persists in his efforts.
Next, we will definitely be able to rob epic-level beauties and even legendary-level beauties as well as goblin business groups!
As the saying goes, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places.
Zong needs to become bigger and stronger and create greater glory!
…
"Ah sneeze!"
At this time, it was over the middle of the continent.
Boswell, who was rushing back to Ratchet City in a heavy goblin airship, suddenly sneezed.
Yellow-white snot hung under the big green nose.
Boswell casually took out a handkerchief from his pocket and blew it hard.
First he sniffed, then scratched his big head.
"Oh my gosh, this sneeze is really exciting."
"Xiao Tie Gou, report our current location!"
Boswell shouted into the airship cockpit.
One of the goblin pilots turned his head when he heard this.
He turned sideways and looked down from the glass showcase, and then looked at the steering wheel on the airship.
Then he answered seriously.
"Uncle Boswell, we are over the Kingdom of Swadia, within the jurisdiction of the giant city of Tvaren."
"There are still three days of flight to reach the Ratchet Merchant Alliance's headquarters!"
Upon hearing this answer, Boswell nodded habitually and said nothing more.
This southern tour was quite successful.
Although I met a shameless little thief in Avalon.
But the overall gains are still considerable.
Especially in the Kingdom of Nord, it has established relationships with several princes.
I also smelled an unusual business opportunity.
A top-down storm is likely to erupt within the Nord Kingdom!
Queen Sandina has already begun to train the princes she gave birth to.
"Zi Liu!"
Boswell couldn't help but stick out his big tongue and lick his lips.
"Queen Sandina is such a charming beauty!"
"If I could have sex with her, I would spend 1,000... no! 5,000 dinars!"
"There are few women in the human race who are as full of charm as she is."
"Even I can't help but feel restless."
Its expression gradually became wretched.
A woman who can make stingy goblin merchants willing to spend 5,000 dinars must have some reputation.
Several other middle-aged goblins sitting nearby also showed similar expressions when they heard this.
They are all goblin traders active in the central and eastern parts of the continent.
Most of them have met Queen Sandina of the Kingdom of Nord.
That guy is a famous hustler.
It is said that King Ragnar Lodbrok wears a hat that could open a coat shop.
Some rumors had already reached the king's ears.
But the king remained indifferent.
No one knows the specific reason. According to the latest "Overview of the Kingdom of Nord" submitted by the Steamwheedle Group's intelligence club, it is most likely because the Trivasin family behind Queen Sandina is secretly at work.
As the second-ranked super family in the Nordic Kingdom, they are qualified to challenge the royal family.
This situation intensified after Sandina became queen more than 20 years ago.
Now, everyone from the Grand Duke of the Royal Family to the local Lords has inextricably linked interests with the Trevoisin family. On the other hand, the Lodbrok family of the Royal Family has lost a lot of power.
The situation is very complicated.
The more turbulent a kingdom is, the more fertile ground it is for goblin merchants.
Once a war breaks out, those magic mechas, chariots, siege equipment, defense equipment, war puppets, alchemy weapons, engineering weapons, and goblin bombs can all be sold for a good price.
The move can be orders of millions or even tens of millions of dinars.
The goblins can even take the initiative and raise the price.
In addition to accepting payment in dinars for the goods they sell, they can also pay for them with materials and specialties of equal value. If that doesn't work, they can even accept human transactions.
Whether you are a warrior or a farmer, you can get an accurate quote from the goblin merchant.
Each major kingdom has its own unique units and warriors.
There are also corresponding workshops and magic technology.
There are also talented engineering masters among humans.
But compared with the engineering attainments of the goblins, there is still a big gap.
Even if it is an engineering product with the same effect and principle, the cost of manufacturing it by humans is higher than that of goblins.
Of course, there are also human kingdoms that secretly keep a group of goblin engineer apprentices in captivity.
But the results were very little. After all, the development of goblin engineering and alchemy was not only due to talent, but also due to the huge goblin population base as a guarantee.
Goblins often talk about money, gambling, and repairs.
These three are also the goblins' specialties.
So a turbulent kingdom is also a good opportunity for them to be active.
Boswell's words obviously resonated with these goblin traders.
In fact, goblins also have a lustful side in their hearts.
Although it's not as strong as the goblins, it's not much better.
At this moment, a goblin wearing a gentleman's hat who was sitting on the seat opposite Boswell raised his head.
"Except for the Kingdom of Nord, all the major kingdoms are not much better."
"Every kingdom has an undercurrent surging, but no one knows when this undercurrent will break out, and no one dares to stir up the undercurrent, because they will definitely be crushed."
"Everyone is waiting for the opportunity."
"Hot Sand and Rusty Water have submitted similar reports."
"The elite eyes of the elves are also active more and more frequently."
"Even the dull orcs are aware of it."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "The major churches within mankind are also ready to move, including the Nordaron sect that believes in the original human race of the last era. They are also gearing up to try to restore the glory of the original human race."
The goblin wearing a gentleman's hat said with a sneer.
"Ah! Dear Tutor Qadri!"
"I didn't expect that as a super alchemist, you would be so concerned about the situation on the mainland!"
Boswell stood up, nodded, and complimented in an exaggerated tone.
In response, the goblin named Tutor Kadri just sneered and lowered his head again.
Other goblin merchants were unimpressed with his attitude.
Goblin merchants, goblin engineers, and goblin alchemists are all goblins.
But temperaments and habits are completely different.
The former is cunning, stingy, eloquent, greedy and lustful.
The latter basically have severe academic paranoia.
Just like the senior engineer Iron Hand Barenque recruited by Zong Shen.
Seeing Kadri lowering his head, Boswell looked submissive on the surface, but was cursing in his heart. He also sat down, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
Boswell turned his head and looked at the scenery outside the airship window, and began to think about what kind of fun he should have after returning to Ratchet City.
As long as you reach the Merchant Alliance, there will be a teleportation array that can reach Ratchet City directly.
He will have about a week off.
At the same time, the second batch of goods has been shipped to the Ratchet City Merchant Guild stronghold in the giant city of Lentax in the Kingdom of Avalon as per his request, and is expected to arrive in about half a month.
The starting point for the next round of trade that Boswell is responsible for will start from the giant city of Lentax and go all the way south through the Salander Sultanate, and then all the way north along the west side of the continent, passing through the Kugit Empire and Rhodok
kingdom.
To be honest, it still prefers to deal with humans in the central and eastern parts of the continent compared to the trade routes in the southern and western parts of the continent.
The kingdoms to the south and west were more barbaric.
But there's nothing we can do about it.
As leading traveling merchants, they must abide by the routes designated by the chamber of commerce and the company.
Normally it is a 5 to 6 year continental loop.
Now it has just completed the central and eastern trade routes, and the next round should take the southwest trade routes.
It curled its lips and thought no more.
As a traveling businessman who leads a group, I can be considered a middle-level member of the traveling businessman community.
It has no wife, but it has many children.
But that doesn't matter, it's not close to those children either.
Boswell only needs to pay a small amount of alimony to the company regularly.
This alimony is a rule set by the senior board of directors of Hotsand Group.
Otherwise, given its stinginess, it would never have provided this money.
Goblins have goblin rules.
If you want to live well, you have to follow the rules.
The life of a traveling merchant was satisfying to him, and he occasionally encountered bandits.
But most of the time it's peaceful.
God knows how much wealth those human nobles have accumulated.
When its engineering weapons were offered at a tenfold premium, most human nobles did not even blink!
Occasionally, I could even have a nice meal at a banquet hosted by a noble.
Enjoy attentive service.
But that doesn't include the guys from the Salander Sultanate.
Those humans are freaks and rarely rely on the products of engineering.
It is also the kingdom that goblin merchants hate the most.
However, as a part of the business line, it is inevitable to deal with those people who live in the Gobi Oasis. The humans in the Sultanate are all stubborn, and they will get angry if the price is slightly higher.
If you meet a prince with a bad temper, you might even get a whipping.
Boswell rolled his eyes and stopped thinking about these disappointing things.
The boring airship voyage needs to continue, and it will not find any fun until it returns to Ratchet City.
…
On the straight road outside the giant city of Lentax.
Outside the city, a thin white prairie horse was walking lamely.
A frame hung on one side of the horse's back, and a vière was placed on it.
The dusty bard Ingram Hanover on horseback.
His red jacket was stained with black dust, and the yellow hood on his head had long since disappeared.
The light golden natural curly hair is as messy as a bird's nest.
After leaving Zong Shen's territory, he concentrated on his journey.
Because of Zong Shen's huge reward of 1,000 dinars, he didn't need to sing or sing along the way.
You have enough money to go all the way.
However, the journey of thousands of kilometers is still extremely difficult.
Along the way he encountered raging horse bandits and wild beasts that lurked day and night.
When passing through the Witch Feather Forest on the east side, I was even attacked by a harpy.
Fortunately, he arrived at the giant city of Lentax without any danger.
The prairie horse under his crotch also suffered a serious crime.
Ingram didn't keep it running at full speed though.
The average speed is only 20 to 30 kilometers per hour, and it takes about 10 hours to move forward every day.
However, the various dangers encountered along the way still made the prairie horse lame.
Coupled with the lack of refined food and protein supplements, it became very thin.
There is no way, traveling around in such a vast world is not an easy job.
Especially for a bard who relies on singing and singing for rewards along the way, it is even more difficult.
But these fair and pure bards regard this as a kind of spiritual practice.
They record what they see along the way, praise those heroic deeds, and condemn those despicable ones.
And bring vivid stories from one state to another and to the villages along the way.
The bards neither use teleportation arrays nor aerial beasts.
The only leg power is the horse.
Ingram is considered a newcomer among the bards.
He comes from a pretty good background, his father is a baron.
According to the hereditary standard of downgrading the lowest-ranking noble title, England will have no title to inherit when it is England's turn. This embarrassing situation is similar to that of Hadro, the son of Baron Bezos.
However, even if there is no inheritance of the title, one can still enjoy peace and happiness in the city with the accumulated wealth.
At that time, England was not only young but also handsome and had a beautiful singing voice.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The relationship with the opposite sex is extremely good, and because of this, he spent a period of drunkenness and dreams.
Until he met a great bard, Beowulf, known as the "Walking Psalm".
He is a truly legendary bard.
He has a long lifespan, and his stories have been handed down since the founding of the contemporary human kingdom.
The most important thing is that Beowulf always wanders around the world.
He never participates in fights and always goes to a tavern to have a glass of wine wherever he goes.
When night falls, they chant and sing.
There are even rumors that he has been close to the gods.
However, since he never participates in battles, no one knows his strength.
More just epic allusions and rumors.
That time, England saw Beowulf when he returned drunk.
After receiving his teachings, I suddenly woke up and wanted to travel to a wider world.
Make more friends along the way and even gain your own love.
That's why England took the initiative to befriend Zong Shen.
Including coming to the giant city of Lentax to try his luck, also to see if his love is here.
Walking on a straight road, people are coming and going around you.
The Jucheng Straight Road was built by Jucheng. After the soil was rammed first, a layer of lime was laid on it, then a layer of soil was rammed, a layer of carbon ash was rammed, then a layer of soil was rammed, a layer of gravel was spread, and there were multiple layers.
After compacting, another layer of soil had to be spread, and finally it became a solid straight road.
This straight road is about 10 meters wide and leads to Tanditapang City, which is more than 500 kilometers away.
Unlike the "remote" Bosibon, Tanditabon is the closest city within the jurisdiction of the giant city of Lentax.
This is one of the four straight roads out of the huge city of Lentax.
A few kilometers ahead we will reach Zhidao Pass.
A series of forts were built there.
It can accommodate at least tens of thousands of soldiers.
There are also cruising knights in other directions who have constructed airtight patrol routes.
Most of these knights are Avalon's fourth-level assault knights, and there are also a small number of fifth-level elite knights.
From time to time, teams of dragonborn rangers and strike rangers would pass by carrying longbows.
Avalon swordsmen holding double swords and Avalon Guards holding shield swords were waiting on both sides of the pass.
They were holding magic disks in their hands and looked a little wary.
Compared with the state city, the defensive strength of the giant city is much stronger.
The scope covered by the corresponding giant city is also extremely huge.
There are hundreds of villages, large and small, just around the giant city.
There are a total of 20 to 30 million people inside and outside the city.
If the cities, villages, and settlements in various parts of the jurisdiction are included, the total population can reach 40 to 50 million.
It can be said that giant cities are the core of population gathering in a region.
With a population of tens of millions, it can be called a super city on Earth.
Under such circumstances, the giant city occupies a huge area, comparable to the area of more than a dozen super cities on the earth.
The reason is also very simple. There are no skyscrapers in this world, so the land utilization rate is naturally not as good as that of the earth.
As the saying goes, there is not enough space to make up for the efficiency.
The solution is to increase the urban area.
The entire giant city of Lentax is divided into four circles from the inside to the outside.
The two inner circles are guarded by towering towers.
The periphery is open.
The same goes for infrastructure such as sewers.
The two inner circles are very complete.
The outer circle is very different. In order to solve the problem of feces, there are special feces collection trucks in Jucheng to collect feces and transport them to agricultural areas more than 100 kilometers away from Jucheng for composting.
From one hundred kilometers to four to five hundred kilometers away from the giant city, there are large farms.
The villagers in nearby villages and some residents in the suburbs are agricultural people.
In addition to farms, there are also orchards, fisheries, horse farms, cattle and sheep pastures, etc.
The giant city of Lentax is basically able to achieve self-sufficiency in agricultural production to a certain extent.
In addition, a huge amount of supplies are being transported from within the jurisdiction and even from neighboring giant cities at all times.
Goblin traveling merchants and transnational business groups also set up chambers of commerce in the giant city of Lentax.
Therefore, the prosperity of the giant city is unmatched by any other state city.
England Hanover looked around curiously, and when he reached the pass, he was stopped by soldiers from the Guards Regiment.
"The pass of the giant city of Lentax lies ahead, please stop when entering the city!"
"Please tell me where you are coming from, and accept the magic detection test!"
The sharp long sword shines with silvery white light and points towards the white horse.
England pulled the horse's rope lightly and turned over.
He gave an elegant breast-stroking salute to the soldier who stopped him.
"I am a bard who has trekked all the way from the great city of Dagalisni in the east."
"Get ready to go to the city to participate in the athletic meeting held by the Marquis of Lancaster!"
