From troll tribes to elf empires

Chapter 230 Can Freya come in?

The attempt method can be said to be quite simple and crude. The four advanced witch doctors decided to take the cave wolves a little further south to test the reaction of the two advanced salamander species to such an action.

If it shows a state of alert, etc., it may prove the existence of "territorial characteristics".

And by constantly changing the distance and observing the tolerance shown by the higher salamanders in the process, we can explore the possible critical points of conflict between them.

Of course, the prerequisite for the implementation of this plan is to move the cave wolf;

But at the same time, it is impossible to really release the Burrow Wolf and let the guy move forward and retreat on his own. During this period, the Burrow Wolf must be kept in a state of imprisonment at all times.

It is not a guy who can be obedient. The reason why it is so 'obedient' now is purely because the mother tree's imprisonment ability has undergone qualitative changes due to quantitative accumulation, making it unable to break free and even unable to wake up on its own.

And this kind of imprisonment method is actually far beyond the level of the witch doctors' own combat power.

Therefore, once the Burrow Wolf is released, it is difficult to ensure that it can be successfully imprisoned again. There are too many possible variables to worry about.

Having said that, there are a lot of inconveniences in moving the mother tree in order to ensure that it is always in custody.

So when planning this aspect, the witch doctors included many, many ideas.

First, the witch doctors plan to give it the ability to move on its own;

Secondly, the witch doctors intend to ensure their own strength to the maximum extent;

Third, the cage needs to have strong fire resistance;

Fourth, the volume and weight must be limited within a reasonable range;

After that, Nesta frowned slightly, shook his head and put the metal rod aside, obviously looking dissatisfied.

For this, they have several solutions, but most of them require trade-offs in terms of time, damage to urban areas, and loss of resources.

First, there are only the last three years left in the cultivation period of this group of elves, and you can wait until this time has passed before taking action;

Second, the development status of the elves is actually enough for them to be born as 'babies' instead of 'teenagers', and they can be forcibly born before taking action;

The apprentice later turned the toy into a fairly practical weapon by working on the shape of the shaft and the strings. According to the form of "co-invention", he signed the report with the name

The names of the soldiers were reported to the military meeting.

At this moment, he was working on the part he was responsible for in an independent research room with two partitions, assisted by two witch doctor assistants and several apprentice assistants.

It is with this mentality that another research plan with an unknown duration has been implemented.

~~~~~

Because many of the requirements were too difficult to implement, the research lasted much longer than expected.

In addition, First Bank launched a low-interest loan business in the Black Forest in a timely manner, providing the funds within it to newly moved residents and old residents, allowing them to have more funds to start new businesses.

Therefore, the ruling government once again placed a research order with the Machinery Research Institute, hoping that they could design a series of horn-type engineering vehicles as soon as possible.

Of course, if the engineering vehicle is designed based on the strength attributes of the horned hoof species, the work efficiency will be absolutely terrible;

But considering that the population of the horn-hoofed species has returned to 100,000, the ruling government really does not want to waste this extra labor.

However, the number of existing spellcasters is still insufficient for the Republic;

Whenever a large project that requires joint efforts appears, it means that a large number of witch doctors have to put down their current research to support this project which may be urgently needed in the short term, but the value in the medium and long term may not be higher than

Projects they were originally researching.

After a moment, the light disappeared again, and Nesta opened his palm. What he held in it was actually a metal rod about five centimeters long with a silvery white color.

The witch doctors and the apprentices who were responsible for the experimental field not only determined the specific properties of these elements, but also achieved their extraction through some plants with "tricky taste".

In other words, among about ten thousand trolls, there may be ten natural spellcasters.

After the plan was determined, more detailed planning officially began.

This is because the witch doctors, even the four advanced ones such as Nesta, actually have a considerable, even in sightless, end-to-end gap between them and advanced monsters such as the Cave Wolf in terms of individual strength;

The trolls living there have moved to the new city one after another, making the place gradually become more lively.

However, this time, the provider of the germ cells was changed to a different batch, and after being paired according to the same random pattern, they were put into the vacant culture chamber.

The laboratory in the mother tree, the stored remains of heroic spirits, various spells and scientific data, government encrypted documents and historical archives, the reproductive cells and somatic cell dormancy rooms in the trunk, and dormancy warehouses and other supporting facilities are all possible

Covered in flames of war.

However, it will take a few more years for the farms, factories, and other cities on the outskirts of the headquarters to have universal water supply and sewerage. The water supply and sewerage seeds produced by the witch doctors are currently being cultivated silently in various fields.

This is the brain of a volcanic salamander. Its structure does not appear to be complete. Judging from its shape alone, at least three-quarters of it is missing.

And technological breakthroughs and progress are happening quickly or slowly in this cycle of 'research', 'communication', 'inspiration', and 'research'.

And then eight, nine, ten

This is undoubtedly a rather "arrogant" idea. Its significance is not limited to the imprisonment and movement of cave wolves, but also the pursuit of corresponding combat suitability and imprisonment capabilities when dealing with advanced volcanic salamanders.

Considering the current size of the mother tree, if it were to be moved outside the city, it would definitely cause huge damage to the newly built urban area.

Among them, various metal wires of different colors are wrapped in circles and categories into a weird shape;

And the light that is constantly flashing in his hand, if you look closely, you can see that it is a shining arc, making a "cracking" sound lingering in his palm.

The first thing to say is that the thousand elf embryos have finally completed their pregnancy. The elf boys and girls, half male and half male, have been arranged to enter the "Language and Common Knowledge Study Class" specially designed for them as a formal

Basis for admission.

In addition to agriculture, some good results have been achieved in urban construction during the past few years when the witch doctors have been immersed in research;

Nesta looked a little busy, and there was no high-end equipment in front of him like the one next door, which looked unclear at first glance. There were just some metal wires, metal rods, and metal sheets placed in a chaotic and orderly manner.

on the desktop.

The spherical shape is divided into thirty-six layers, each layer is composed of four thin ribs that form a ring shape, and the circumference gradually tightens from the middle to the upper and lower sides.

Most trolls are willing to buy the most expensive, dazzling, tastiest, and sharpest things. They even hire apprentice engineers to design and build their houses, and then live in them happily.

Secondly, the major demolition of the old city of the headquarters has been completed. The former home is really not suitable for tens of thousands of trolls to live in. It has now been transformed into a complete storage area, directly connected to the expanded dock to the north.

Different from other chemical fertilizer elements, the acquisition process of this element is actually the mineralization and precipitation of atmospheric components, and will not harm the corresponding fertility of the land where the plants are planted;

Therefore, for the extraction of this element, we have temporarily retained the ‘traditional’ plant plan and have not looked for alternatives.

Considering the above three difficulties, a suitable alternative plan must be found before the witch doctors' trial plan can be truly implemented.

Now, the total number of trolls in the Republic reaches 63,000+, among which the number of spellcasters is 93.

Part of this is directly transformed from the witch doctors who existed in various tribes in the past;

With the abundant supply of agricultural machinery and construction machinery, large areas of concentrated farmland and various factories were built near the city.

The initiator of this laboratory is the Nestaben Troll, but strangely, his own energy does not seem to be at this time, at least not entirely on the cultivation cabin;

Among them, those monsters that are being cultivated are just lost, and the loss is just a loss. Apart from making the trolls feel distressed, it is not a big deal;

However, if there is any loss to those thousands of elf embryos that are being gestated, it will be really regrettable.

On the other side, the construction of the "Inner North City" within the gap in the north was also completed during this period. The new immigrants came over and the 1,500 mature trolls who personally participated in the construction of the new city have now begun formal production activities.

On the left, right, front and back of the ring layers are four miniature spines standing perpendicular to the other ribs;

At the intersection of the ribs and the micro-spine, there are segments of fascia and muscles, which seem to fix the various parts of the ball, and finally merge into a whole bone ball with a certain distance between the layers.

Second, several imaginary siege weapons were created and entered the stage of self-experimentation.

At this time, a witch doctor and three apprentices were constantly doing various debugging and inspections outside the training cabin;

During the process, the witch doctor almost never stopped working on the spells, while the apprentices behind him were writing something in a hurry while using some totems they had carved for research, doing what they could.

auxiliary work.

The sound of 'bang bang', 'bang bang' came from the strange organ inside this bone ball, which somewhat proves that this organ has part of the function of the heart.

There are also some mineral veins found in the Black Forest, but because they are mainly "rocky solid mineral deposits", the mining process requires the use of engineering vehicles that only trolls can operate, so the Hornhoof species have lost their job opportunities.

However, the headquarters actually wants the horned hoofs to get this job opportunity, but the power gap between the two sides is too large. The existing engineering vehicles are designed for trolls. Although the horned hoofs can barely move them, they can't move them.

The force required for mining is not what they can provide.

Nesta himself was not idle either. In addition to coordinating the overall situation, he also led several assistants to take on some specific projects.

However, because the witch doctors could not spare the energy to research specialized materials for the time being, the apprentices turned their attention to the bed crossbow and wanted to apply its materials directly to this new weapon.

Finally, the scale of the "community pilot" of our department has become larger and larger with the successive participation of batches of graduates;

After the accumulation of the previous batch of cultivation stages, and with the support of various data obtained, the breeding time of the second batch of elf embryos has been compressed to ten years, and has reached a time limit that cannot be exceeded in the short term.

On the outside of this 'disabled' brain, there are four single-frame structures that resemble ribs, but the overall shape is gathered into an outer structure of a ball;

On each rib, there are fiery red filaments that look like hairs or lines. If anyone familiar with volcanic salamanders observes carefully, they will understand that these lines are actually muscle fibers;

These muscle fibers all grow in the same direction on the bone surface, and finally drill into the four miniature spines;

Except for a very few parts at both ends along the upper and lower edges, the muscle fibers have degenerated most of their mental synapses. At this time, they are more like hoses, acting as the outer membrane of the two tiny internal tubes;

The two tiny tubes inside, one forward and one reverse, flow viscous blood in parallel in both directions.

They are wrapped by a tough membrane, gather together into clusters, and then extend into the cavity reserved in the upper part of the bone canal.

Recently, although his main focus is still on the laboratory on the left, whenever he has free time, he will repeatedly toss these metals in the partition on the right, obviously trying something.

In the partition on the left side of the laboratory, there is a huge organ culture cabin;

What was soaked in the culture fluid was an obvious brain structure, as well as strange organs connected to it through some complicated flesh and blood tubes.

Therefore, the non-soil extraction 'mining' plan was included in the plan by the ruling government, and their respective veins were found based on the chemical and physical laws that the witch doctors had understood when they discovered such substances.

A very small number of trolls are more conservative and would rather chop down trees and build houses themselves;

But as long as the houses they build can comply with the appearance requirements of the ruling government, no one will interfere;

For example, this "prison" design may be such a project.

However, this seems to be something that cannot be solved now, so the witch doctors who were transferred expressed their understanding and obeyed the deployment.

Therefore, the ‘external force’ factor becomes particularly important.

During this period, the development of other aspects of the Republic did not stagnate, and it achieved noteworthy achievements in all aspects.

When facing such advanced monsters, they relied more on tactical means derived from wisdom and realized through the diversity of spells.

The increase in the number of witch doctors, as well as the establishment and continuous growth of a clear world view and research methods, have allowed these spellcasters who have escaped from mystery and ignorance to further become promoters of civilization and technological progress;

As a result, the development of the entire ethnic group is advancing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the past, part of the mining work was outsourced to horn-hoofed species. In fact, in addition to population reasons, there were also some considerations in this regard;

The horn-hoofed alliances will also spend money to buy a lot of output from the Republic, so the back-and-forth is just a matter of switching between the left hand and the right hand.

In addition, because there was no thought of moving it again during the original planning, a series of new city buildings such as the Memorial Square, the College District, the Government District, and the Residential District were built compactly around the mother tree without any scruples;

For example, the stronger the ability of a cage that directly plays the role of 'imprisonment', the less difficult it will be to capture advanced salamanders in the future.

First of all, the mature trolls who moved to the headquarters have been resettled, and the ruling government has specially distributed relocation compensation, resettlement money, food subsidies, etc.;

Fifth, higher energy utilization efficiency;

The new city is positioned as the backing of the northern plateau during wartime and the hub between the Black Forest and the plateau during non-wartime. Therefore, there will definitely be broad room for development in the future.

Many pilot laws and regulations closely related to it have gradually been completed using each lesson learned as a growth ladder, waiting for the right time to be fully promoted.

For the Republic, these things are an important asset second only to the population, and no troll would be willing to see this loss.

These elements were named 'soil chemical fertilizer', or 'fertilizer' for short. After the apprentices developed their special fertilization tools and precise fertilization methods for different crops, they were officially supplied to large and small farms and farms, once again increasing the number of

A lot of grain output value per mu.

A small number of trolls are relatively restrained and are satisfied with just giving themselves a proper outfit.

However, how to transform all these means into capabilities that can actually play a role in action requires breakthroughs in their application.

Second, the previous plant extraction scheme;

The upper and lower bone balls are one large and one small. The upper one is about half a meter in diameter, while the lower one has a cross-sectional length of six meters;

But the effect was not very good. Some of the materials he knew in his previous life had not yet been harvested in the experiment.

Taking into account the insufficient number of trolls and the fact that the witch doctors could no longer devote more energy to developing special mining plants (the previous root extraction method could only be used in the soil), the ruling government decided to first extract the horns.

Hoof breeders take advantage of it

Some of the veins are lake-shaped and were discovered on the northern plateau, and the task of mining them was given to the horn-hoofed species;

Taking into account some other factors, the Republic decided to import it as the main trade material between the two sides for a fee, instead of forcing the Horn Hoof species in the form of 'tribute'.

After observing the first batch of 'results', Nesta found that there were no problems, so he waved his hand and immediately started the cultivation of the second batch of thousands of tree embryos.

Together with the small bone tube about fifteen centimeters in the middle, it forms a deformed gourd shape.

The other part is the result of training from scratch during the dental period and after the founding of the Republic.

This bone tube extends straight downward for about ten centimeters, and finally connects with the head end of another 'bone ball';

~~~~~~

His eyes turned back to the witch doctors.

The research has lasted for several years. It is of course not feasible to work behind closed doors. Frequent communication and situation reporting are also necessary items during this period;

After sufficient negotiations, the Hornhoof Alliance, which had been burdened with a heavy economic burden for a long time, happily took over this task and began mining under the guidance of the troll engineers.

However, this model of extracting such elements from non-cultivated soil and then transferring them to cultivated land is actually an overdraft of cultivated land that can be developed in the future.

But issuing money is not the purpose in itself, but it is necessary to use this method to circulate money, thereby increasing the economic vitality of the Republic.

Therefore, it is obvious that the emergence and widespread popularity of meditation has effectively lowered the talent threshold limit for trolls to become spellcasters, reducing the ratio of population to spellcasters to about 700 to 1.

In addition, there has been a crucial technological breakthrough in farming.

Several elements that have benign effects on various aspects of crop growth have been discovered in the past few years.

Nesta, who deeply understood the importance of food, specially selected a limited number of witch doctors to conduct further research on them from phenomenon to essence, and finally achieved clear results.

According to their level of intelligence, this stage of learning does not need to last too long. After about half a year, the elves can enter the first grade of the Central School to receive formal education.

In addition, there were two minor breakthroughs in the military field;

First, a soldier happened to play with an interesting toy based on the shape of the 'Crossbow Engineering Vehicle' in his spare time, and then he was seen by a passing apprentice;

Therefore, under such a plan, although such minerals will be supplied through two modes of troll mining and land acquisition in the short term, in the medium term, they will become an important income-generating project for the Hornhoof species;

As for what the longer-term future will be like, it’s hard to say right now.

There is also a kind of fertilizer element, which is an important component in the atmosphere, but the method of obtaining it is more specific;

First, it is obtained directly in the laboratory;

Although the product obtained by this method has high purity, it is very difficult to extract, so it is currently only used for scientific research.

I saw him holding the metal rod between his fingertips, then slowly leaning it towards the other pieces of metal placed on the table, and then making gestures left and right above it;

After that, press down again so that the metal rod is in direct contact with several metal pieces one after another.

However, its shape is considered to have great development prospects, so it has received certain attention.

Sixth, the agility attribute that breaks through the limitations of plants;

Seventh, it has the ability to produce efficient and stable toxins;

Third, the difficulty of operation;

So far, the mother tree has actually become a real behemoth. Let alone moving it south, even pulling out the huge root system that spreads into the ground will be an extremely complicated task for the witch doctors, and it may not even be possible to complete it.

super project.

As of today, there are more than 3,000 people living in this new way of life.

At this time, he was on the right side of the laboratory, in a single room divided by a transparent wall, 'playing' with some metal wires, and even shining a dazzling light on his hand from time to time.

Nowadays, the witch doctors indeed have far more means than when they used to deal with the cave wolves;

~~~~

Based on the actual situation of various large, medium and small tribes in the tribal period, the probability of the black forest troll race giving birth to a spell caster is roughly 1000 to 1 in the natural state;

Second, combat risks;

There must be a battle with the volcanic salamander. If the mother tree comes to the battlefield in person, not only the monsters and elf embryos may be affected by the battle;

First, various embryos in the mother tree will interrupt part of the nutrient supply;

Trolls will use the money to buy food, clothes, services, and even use it to build houses.

As for whether this house will collapse?

It doesn't matter, since you can't kill the troll anyway, you just need to pay compensation for damaging the city appearance afterwards.

Among these many conditions, some can be achieved by the department's existing technology, such as 'stable toxin production', 'imparting mobility', 'fire resistance', 'high strength', 'weight limit', etc.;

But even among these achievable requirements, many cannot coexist with each other or have upper limits, such as 'strength' and 'weight limit', 'growth rate' and 'strength', etc.

The other part simply needs to be broken almost from scratch, such as 'energy utilization efficiency', 'agility' and so on.

etc.

The first option took too long, and the second option had too many uncertainties. Neither could reduce the risk to the rest of the mother tree and the large-scale damage to the urban area, so most of them were rejected.

However, how can a country's research plan be described as "arrogant"? No matter whether all the requirements can be achieved in the end, the progress that can be made in the process is worthy of the witch doctors charging towards the goal.

Four micro-spines converge into a bone tube at the bottom of the sphere. At its upper end, towards the direction of the remaining brain, there is an opened hole.

The tail end of the brain remnant, which is fixed to the center of the ‘rib ball’ by the fascia structure, is composed of countless thin threads;

In this way, the only feasible solution emerged as the times require.

That is, re-create a cage with a single function, extract enough Burrow Wolf body fluid culture medium for short-term use, keep it in the mother tree, and then transfer it to this temporary 'new home' to achieve the goal.

The weapon he made cannot yet unleash the full strength of the troll, and its range and power are far inferior to those of throwing spears;

Thirdly, after several years of development, the water supply and sewerage lines have finally been laid in the new urban area of ​​​​the headquarters;

From now on, trolls, at least those living in this area, can flush toilets in their own homes;

And the long-standing profession of 'dung sweeper' has gradually withdrawn from the stage of history within the scope of this headquarters.

Of course, because they only had experience in loan sharking before, normal loans have become a new business with little experience, so there are very complicated review procedures to be performed at this stage;

The scale of the factory planned by the applicant, product type, etc. must be carefully studied by both the bank and the Ministry of Finance of the ruling government before the final decision can be made.

Just as Nesta was contemplating and trying hard to recall past life memories that were not covered by the benefits of high memory in this life, there was a sound from the door.

‘Dong dong dong’

"Your Excellency, Council President~ Can Freya come in? A routine report has been sent from the warrior laboratory~"

There was a knock on the door, followed by a clear, beautiful female voice that was rarely heard among trolls. Even to Nesta's ears, this voice could be said to be second only to Azshara's most beautiful voice.
