Chapter 1,297 Insurance
,!
Considering that the jacquard machine can now operate on its own without the need for human supervision. So how could someone not consider the possibility of someone sabotaging it or having those naughty children at home appear here?
So when Princess Xindu took a few steps forward, she stepped over the cordon. Suddenly, a piercing alarm sound sounded in the work room, and at the same time, there was a bright red flashing warning text light screen, blocking the way between the people and the machine.
This sudden change frightened Princess Xindu and took several steps back. Chao Chao and others even drew their swords to protect the princess.
Count Guha of the Haider Empire is also protected by his attendants. The nobleman who cared about his life did not run away immediately in this situation, which was worthy of the earl's military background.
Count Guha, who was trying to remain calm, was flashing red and white by the flashing red light in the workshop. After confirming that his life was not in danger for the time being, he said in a reproachful tone: "Your Majesty the Great Magician, this is not the way to treat guests."
While turning off the alarm, Lin said with a smile: "Haha, sir. As far as I know, a considerable number of machines are also used in the Haider Empire. Of course, I can understand the characteristics of these machines. That is, as long as it has enough energy, it can It can run around the clock and is more stable than human power. The machine I designed can run more autonomously and does not require human operation. Since there is no one to look after it, there may be no need to guard against those who have evil intentions. So what you see is this , it’s just the sound of an alarm, without any threat. Unless someone ignores the alarm and continues to move towards the location of the machine, it will trigger the trap magic I prepared. At that time, you can only rely on your own ability to survive. ”
Earl Guha responded with a wry smile and said, "Your Excellency, it's not like you said there is no threat."
Lin spread his hands and said: "People who have already issued a warning but still insist on moving forward, apart from being stupid, can only be people who have such plans from the beginning. If a fool dies, it can be given to others." It will cause some trouble; and when all those who deliberately die, the world will be a lot quieter. So I don’t think there is anything wrong with this setting.”
"Ha, it's true." Although Count Guha recognized someone's statement, he still held on to a glimmer of hope and asked, "Sir, can I get a closer look at the operation of the machine?"
Lin shook his head and said, "Sir, even if you put your eyes on the machine, what you can see will not be any different from what you can see standing here. If the machine is not running, let It doesn't matter if you get close. But the machine is running now. In addition to worrying about being damaged, next to the running machine is not a safe place. If I get caught in the running gears or the moving robot arm, Even if the person can be saved, there will still be wounds of various sizes. So I set up this warning range not only to prevent people who deliberately damage, but also for the safety of other people."
After receiving the rejection, Count Guha did not persist. Because he could also see that the casing of the jacquard machine adopts an enveloping design. To put it simply, you can't see the internal mechanical structure. But just because of the densely packed jacquard crane arms moving up and down, the count did not think that the structure of this machine would be very simple.
And he or the followers he brought are not people who specialize in goblin machinery, so they may not be able to tell why. So after being declined, he gave up.
But Count Guha backed down, and Princess Xindu, who was attracted at first, did not give up so easily. She pointed to the silk reeling and enchanting machine and asked: "Your Majesty the Great Magician, what is that machine doing?"
"Well, you extract silk from the cocoon, and then twist several strands of silk into a thread. Only when it becomes a thread can you make cloth and then sew clothes. This is obvious."
Lin wondered if the person in front of him was a fake, otherwise why would he ask such a superficial question.
Princess Xindu said excitedly: "No, I'm not asking about that. But over there, something seems to have passed through during the reeling process. There is a strong sense of oppression there. I don't know what it is. .”
If you just talk about there and that, someone really can't understand what this princess wants to express. He couldn't see what her eyes saw, just this and that, who knew what they were referring to. But if one more reminder brings a strong sense of oppression, then Lin will know what the princess doesn't understand.
After thinking about it, Lin felt that there was nothing to keep secret about this part, so he said: "That is enchanting the silk thread. This is what I want to emphasize. The biggest difference between the technology I master and the Kingdom of Silk. What I have What is made is magic equipment with added magic and special effects, rather than ordinary silk. This is something that the Kingdom of Silk cannot do. Of course, it is also possible that my level is too low and I cannot access the true core of the Kingdom of Silk. Silk, that's why there is such a misunderstanding. But the fact is that ordinary silk is not of much use to a magician, so I will find out how to make magic silk to make a suitable robe."
Lin Hui said that he was so unsure because the silks produced in Midi that he bought in the past were all inferior products with more or less insect holes. If you want to sew it into clothes, you have to be careful to avoid those cavities, or you have to patch them.
This is because his level is not high enough and he cannot buy truly high-quality silk. Most of the really good goods are kept by the powerful nobles. Where is the opportunity to wander to the southwest peninsula of Midland for someone to buy them.
However, it is true that the silk produced in the Kingdom of Silk is very valuable, and it is true that many people pursue it, but it has not become the golden goose that everyone covets. Lin guessed that one of the reasons was that silk could not be used to make magic equipment or props, and was just a plaything for nobles and wealthy businessmen.
After all, the Lost World is not a world where only one competes with the other and does not pay attention to other competitions. On the contrary, this is a very cruel world, and you will face death at every turn.
No matter whether you are rich or poor, whether you are powerful or a common man, any one of them can easily take away a life from the attacks of monsters and natural elimination. In such an environment, something that can save lives is what everyone is pursuing. Silk, unfortunately, does not fall into this category.
This is destined that silk will only be a luxury product for the powerful, providing them with a higher quality of life. Perhaps those successful magicians, warriors, and generals would wear silk clothes in their daily lives, but they might not pursue this kind of enjoyable life.
But if silk can be enchanted, its value is completely different!
Count Guha and the people from the Kingdom of Silk suddenly felt warm and their eyes shone. For the former, silk that can be enchanted means a high-grade fabric that combines comfort and safety. For the lives of the nobles, the level of protection has undoubtedly been greatly improved. After all, not everyone would wear armor every day, it would be too unrealistic.
The same goes for several people from the Kingdom of Silk. Thanks to the secrecy of silk production methods and the protection of the Haider Empire, in addition to growing food, the most important industries in the Kingdom of Silk are growing mulberry, raising silkworms, and weaving and embroidering. People from the Country of Silk, from top to bottom, are bound to have a place in some aspect of the silk industry, and no one is left out.
If the value of silk can increase again, it means that their importance will also increase. Increased importance naturally comes with benefits. Then everyone's life will be better than before.
It's just that the vision of the envoy from the Kingdom of Silk is not high enough. I have never thought about whether they can still keep this interest when the value of silk increases to a strategic level. That is a big question.
But right now, they just want to find out the key to how silk can be enchanted.
But compared to the petty thoughts of the men present, Princess Xindu's thoughts were simpler...perhaps not so simple. I just wanted to take advantage of my gender and status, pretend to be stupid and innocent, and asked directly: "If that is silk that can be enchanted, what about silkworm seeds? What kind of silkworm seeds did you choose?"
In the spirit of herding a sheep, so does a group of sheep. Now that the jacquard machine has been exposed, Lin Zhenzhen doesn't think there is anything big about revealing the secret of silkworm seeds. What's more, the magic silk that he weaves is not made from a single species of silkworm, but is made from the cross-use of dozens of varieties, including magic insects and ordinary species of moths. Think about the material science of the earth, how many people are driven crazy.
So Lin's thoughts only changed and he said: "I don't know what kind of silkworms are selected for silk in the Kingdom of Silk, but my method should be different from yours. If you want to see it, just follow me here. Let you It’s okay to take a look.”
After saying that, Lin took the lead and walked out of the workshop, not caring if anyone wanted to stay. In fact, based on the strength that could be detected by those present, no one inside could break through the protection trap they had set for the jacquard machine.
Of course, it is not ruled out that they have some secret magic that can slap someone in the face. However, Lin dared to turn around because he was confident that he could handle the aftermath.
The source of confidence is that the power of traditional magic in Midi is directly proportional to the time it takes to chant and cast magic. The more powerful the magic, the more protracted it is; to be able to cast a magic that can destroy the protection of the jacquard machine workshop, it is enough for Lin to toss and turn the caster to death dozens of times.
Even if he uses a magic scroll to attack with powerful magic, as long as it is not instantaneous, Lin is not afraid. But if they want to cast such powerful magic instantly, these people are not qualified yet. It's possible to have the original lich around him, but it's impossible for Fen to dismantle himself.
The scene in the Jamsil is very different from when it was first built, and the internal space has been expanded several times.
There are hundreds of adult moths and moth larvae of different species, carnivorous, omnivorous and herbivorous, demonic insect types containing eight powers and ordinary moths, separated by cells and raised in silkworm rooms. Not all moth species are from the genus Silkmoth.
The most eye-catching target among them is of course the five golden moth kings the size of washbasins. The moth king family occupies one-third of the space of the silkworm room, of which the adult moths occupy most of the space, and the remaining part is the living space of the larvae. And each individual is also separated to avoid cannibalism. Speaking of Zerg, they really don’t shy away from this.
