Chapter 503: Earl of Turtle

When he was troubled and anxious, Kaka would walk along the ridge next to the wheat field.

Looking at the endless waves of wheat along the way and feeling the golden ocean formed by the intertwining of order and harvest, he will feel a rare peace in his heart.

Just like when he was relaxing on the beach of Treasure Island in the past.

Goblins are shorter than the Bone Ancestors, and their line of sight is narrower and lower. Whether they are ordinary humans, cows, or horses, goblins will feel oppressed by their tallness.

Sometimes Kaka is thinking that the goblins are always anxious, crazy and eager, addicted to making profits quickly and making explosives. Maybe it has something to do with their innate thinness.

The pace of life of the goblin clan is very fast, and it is almost impossible to see goblins lying around and lazily resting. Most of the goblins are either actively making money, or inventing and finding ways. The richer and more powerful a goblin is, the more he wants.

They need an overwhelming sense of power.

In the fast-paced life, the pets that goblins like are slow-moving animals such as golden turtles, giant snails and dry land lizards.

Just watching them move slowly gave the goblins a sense of satisfaction and security.

A slow life may not be destined for the goblins, so at least take a look at these pets and get a moment of peace and relief from them.

On a sunny day, Kaka walked to the temple of Yao to pray and worship.

There are always many people beside the high wall of the outer hall of the temple. Among these people are the Bone Ancestors, ghosts and goblins, as well as dwarves and mystics.

Kaka knelt on the ground, put his hands on the wall, and said silently like everyone else.

"Great Lord Yao, your devout followers beg for your enlightenment and guidance..."

As with most people, the gods did not answer.

Just when Kaka lost his mind, a wave of cheers suddenly sounded from behind.

He turned to look.

I saw a skeleton cavalry slowly walking from outside the city.

The first one is the coach Harros in a red cape, and behind him is the hero Siddal riding a bone horse - wearing a wide-brimmed leather hat and carrying a crossbow are all Siddal's exclusive symbols.

"Mediation Army! Mediation Army!"

"Victory belongs to the kingdom! We have defeated the war!"

"The war is over! Justice will prevail!"

"Sidhar, Sidharth!"

"Giants, giants, we have giants too!"

…

Hearing the excited cheers of the people, Kaka felt particularly bitter.

Everyone always prefers heroes who can change the situation on their own.

If the same thing is accomplished by one person, it would be a great hero. If it were a mechanical device or a cold prop, it would be "this little thing is quite useful."

Seeing that many people in the expeditionary force were injured and disabled, and some of them were buried in foreign lands forever, Kaka suddenly thought that this might be the advantage and uniqueness of the Bone Project.

This is the revelation given by Lord Yao!

He ran all the way to find Bucky.

"Bucky, we have to keep working! No matter how powerful the superhumans and giants are, they can't replace the Bone Project!"

"The Bone Project can create devices made of bones. Even if these devices are destroyed, they can be repaired and remade, which can greatly reduce the sacrifice and loss of personnel!"

"Compared with the genetic sequence that requires gene activation, the White Bone Project does not require civilians to take risks. They only need to know how to operate it. The White Bone ancestors already understand bones innately. These are all advantages."

“As long as there are drawings, a structure, and a clear manufacturing process, it can be manufactured continuously!”

"Supply and demand is the truth! Everyone will definitely need the Bone Project! Because no one wants to face death threats!"

Buji also nodded and said: "The repeated experiments I just finished have proven that the steam furnace can be installed in the Bone Project. Relying on the goblin machinery and foundation, it can not only drive the Bone arms to carry heavy objects, but also drive the legs. Even on complex terrain, you can move at will.”

"We no longer have to worry about the wheel being too heavy or too large to bear! The problem of moving is solved!"

The two men further explored the potential of the Bone Project from different angles.

In the next two years, Kaka and Buji produced the first finished product of the White Bone Project - the White Bone Plate Truck.

The white-bone pallet truck uses a steam stove as the power core and can be disassembled and assembled at any time. It can be increased or reduced in size according to the environment's weight gain for storage.

This large vehicle shaped like a square box made its debut and was publicly tested for everyone.

The craftsmen on the pallet truck disassembled a high bone mage tower and transported it intact to the large load-bearing plate of the pallet truck.

Next, the pallet truck carried the Bone Mage Tower to complete the smooth casting while moving, perfectly releasing the killing ray, and drove from Kencheng to the military fortress, where the repair surgery of the three Bone Ancestors was completed on the truck.

"Shachengdi News" also gave corresponding reports.

"The Resurrection Kingdom has completed the transportation and moving of the Mage Tower"

Although there is only a short description, it has attracted many people's attention to the Bone Project. The kingdom's military quickly incorporated the Bone Pallet Truck into its official armament sequence, and in conjunction with the Bone Mage Tower, it greatly expanded the kingdom's defense line and coverage.

But at this time, Kaka and Buji decided to postpone further development of engineering applications and instead devote all their energy to the formulation of basic standards for the Bone Project.

Many years later, in an interview with "Shachengdi Daily", Kaka was also proud of this decision.

"Instead of speeding up like crazy, we chose to hold back, slow down, lay a solid foundation, classify and standardize the foundation, and invest a lot of time and energy in the basic field. This proved to be an extremely correct decision!"

...

After eleven years of silence and silent research, Kaka and Buki finally completed their standard formulation.

This first edition manual, called "Bone Engineering Specifications", has a total of 377 pages.

The manual standardizes the types and numbers of bones, covering 33 orthopedic species such as the most common human, sheep, horse, cattle, dog, poultry, and fish.

Each orthopedic department is marked with different bone models.

For example, humans usually have 206 bones, and sheep usually have 362 bones.

Each bone in each part has its own unique number.

For example, human bone No. 1 represents the ethmoid bone in the skull; sheep bone No. 2 refers to the parietal bone in the sheep skull.

The bones left by different species of life may seem similar, but their subtle morphological structures are not consistent. Ensuring clear standards for the types gives the White Bone Project a clear operating process.

After obtaining the bone materials, the craftsmen need to classify and number the various bones according to the manual and confirm their models.

In this way, even inexperienced craftsmen can find and use them according to the categories.

On the basis of confirming the numbers and models of common bones, the manual also sets the accuracy and material standards for design drawings.

Complete bones, damaged bones, and bones with missing pieces belong to three different raw material levels, which are excellent, good, and coarse respectively.

Taking the white bone plate frame vehicle as an example, its load-bearing frame must all be made of excellent materials, and only the partial non-functional shell is allowed to use coarse materials.

Otherwise, it is a defective product and does not meet the standards of the White Bone Project.

In addition, the White Bone Project also proposed for the first time that a special workshop-style manufacturing process should be carried out, so that the workshop is divided into different groups of craftsmen, and different groups specialize in a certain type of bone model, so as to complete collaborative work with high proficiency.

This set of standards caused great controversy as soon as it was launched.

Many craftsmen thought that the manual specifications were too complicated, not conducive to design, manufacturing and operation, and completely unnecessary. They sneered at this and said that there had been no trouble in making bone horses and skeleton dogs in the past.

Even the Minister of Finance expressed his concerns: "If we follow such a clear and detailed classification, the future use and manufacturing of bones will be very restricted and costly."

But it didn't take long for the Minister of Finance to become an advocate and defender of the bone project and engineering specifications.

He made a clear statement in the "Shacheng Dibao": "The road to the prosperity of the kingdom will start with the bone project! This is an unparalleled creation and the crystallization of the wisdom of the two great inventors Kaka and Buki! (shaking fingers)"

"Standardized bone engineering is the only way for the kingdom! (opening hands)"

The reason for the change is that the Yao Kingdom sent an envoy to visit the Resurrection Kingdom for the first time.

The ambassador leading the team is the legendary prophet Heiduan.

Hei Duan directly proposed that the Yao people hoped to purchase a batch of [Bone Plate Carriages] and reach a long-term cooperation and joint research and development on the bone engineering with the Resurrection Kingdom.

"This is an amazing and major initiative. We sincerely come to learn from you. If possible, I hope to talk to the two inventors Kaka and Buji face to face? Of course, it does not affect their work."

Hei Duan gave a very high evaluation and showed the sincerity of the Yao people: Yao Kingdom and the Resurrection Kingdom signed an agreement for in-depth cooperation.

The agreement stipulates that Yao Kingdom and the Resurrection Kingdom will jointly establish two colleges of higher learning, and the teachers and students in them will be selected from the outstanding talents of the two countries.

One is in the Kingdom's Royal City, named [United Friendship University], which is a comprehensive large school.

The other is in Kencheng, called [Bone Engineering College], which specializes in cultivating relevant talents with the bone engineering as the core.

In addition to the field of education, Yao Kingdom has also officially established a long-term trade route with the Resurrection Kingdom, using Sand City as a transit station. From then on, talents from the two countries began to communicate more and travel freely.

Finally, the Yao Kingdom also shared the latest [Ice Steam Furnace] and [Elemental Theory] with the Resurrection Kingdom. These in-depth studies on the nature of the world shocked the Kingdom's scholars and further felt the gap between the two sides in terms of civilization.

The Bone Project was recognized and learned by the powerful Yao Kingdom, and it also brought real money, so there was no obstacle to its advancement throughout the kingdom.

…

Three years after the Bone Project Manual was published, the Mobile Fortress came out.

This is a movable fortress, and the core main structure uses superior bones. The fortress is composed of four houses, with two bone wizard towers on the top and crab-shaped legs at the bottom that partially imitate the foot structure of the dragon clan - thanks to the dragon corpse specimens provided by the Yao clan.

The entire mobile fortress is 18.6 meters high and 14.4 meters wide. It is equipped with 12 standard fire steam furnaces, 4 ice steam furnaces, and a number of omnipotent stones. It looks like an upright walking shovel beetle.

When this fortress slowly passed by the city, the oppressive feeling brought by the heavy giant was incomparable, making the bone ancestors hold their breath and look up from afar.

In the field experiment, this new monster named [Little One] defeated the hero Sidar head-on. The cross-fire of the bone wizard's tower made the bone giant unable to withstand the continuous damage and finally surrendered.

But the significance of the birth of the mobile fortress is far more than just combat strikes.

It makes it easier for the city to expand outward. You only need to move the mobile fortress into a certain area, then retract your feet and land steadily, and you can build a small town with defensive power with the fortress as the center.

At the same time, this is also the most powerful proof of the standardization of the bone engineering.

As long as it is operated according to the standard, in theory, countless [Little Dots] can be created.

…

In the wilderness, the mobile fortress [Little Dot] stepped over the hill and easily wiped out the electric wolves.

The bone mage on the tower poked out his bald head and asked the people on the lawn below for credit: "How is it? The accuracy is not bad, right?"

Buki gave him a thumbs up: "Accurate! The wolf cubs were all beaten silly."

"Wow, hahaha, this is the charm of the bone mage tower!"

In a corner of the lawn, Kaka looked at the glass box next to him, and the little turtle inside was walking slowly. The goblin engineer's pointed nose was pressed against the glass surface, and his eyes were staring at the dull animal inside.

Buggy also looked down at the turtle: "Brother, the name [Count Turtle] doesn't sound very impressive...would you really like to change it?"

"This is it, it's good. Sometimes you should slow down, like a turtle."

Kaka said: "What about you, [Count Zero] are you not going to change it?"

"No. Starting from scratch is difficult, but the joy of reaping the rewards is incomparable. Just like this [Little One], he is now traveling around the world to verify whether he can adapt to various environments and long-term marches. This is also a kind of starting from scratch."

The two were chatting.

Suddenly, both of them froze, and then they saw the joy in each other's eyes, and they both emitted a white glow.

The two knelt down quickly.

"Thank God!"

"Thank you for the gift of Lord Yao!"

Carefully feeling the holy and warm power on his body, Kaka suddenly remembered the treasure island.

He remembered the exciting moments of successful production in the past, and he also remembered the moments of being humiliated and ridiculed.

But he didn't think about those things now.

What appeared before my eyes was just a very ordinary scene.

The weather was very good that day, and the sun was neither too hot nor too cold. My mother, who had not yet died of illness, held my hand, and my father, who was still young, walked quickly and powerfully.

My father said confidently as he walked: "When I make money tomorrow, I will buy you a golden turtle. I must choose a big one, and I will buy an expensive one!"

My mother just smiled.

And Kaka, who was still young, was thinking about getting a big turtle tomorrow.

I really want tomorrow to come earlier.
