Chapter 1172 Elemental Gun Fiery Type 61

"This is just the beginning. Let me introduce you to the new goddess of Mother Earth, Ms. Apple, Stelina. She will be breeding apple trees in the Marching Mountains during this period.

If the Crowned One is interested in building his own apple orchard in the Wildas Forest, you can directly negotiate with her. I believe she is very willing to send apple and woad people there for large-scale breeding." Gavin pointed to the two women who came after hearing the news and introduced them.

He naturally did not miss any opportunity to promote Stelina's faith.

"Meet Ms. Apple." Everyone saluted one after another. They were a little numb now.

They saw too many demigods and good things in this day, which far exceeded the accumulation of their first half of life.

In other words, Gavin directly brought them into another world - the world of demigods. What they saw was naturally bizarre and beyond imagination.

Just as Gavin expected.

Stelina, the Crowned One Valentino and the Archdruid of Moss Stone City hit it off and soon reached a series of cooperation agreements.

Stelina sent thousands of apple and woad tree people to the Wildas Forest to assist them in carrying out comprehensive apple breeding, striving to achieve the goal of self-sufficiency in the Wildas Forest Apple within two to three years.

The latter organized experienced elves, fey and druids to come to the marching mountains to help Stelina with breeding.

Even though Stelina had organized more than 100,000 natural races in Misnoel, including those woad tree people, they were still short of manpower because of the powerful breath of the forest queen.

Kaelissa had a good chat with the leader of the Star Vortex Dwarfs, Surila, and reached a consensus on building this mountain city together.

Although they have different beliefs and origins, they have a common collective name - the Stone Clan. They all consider themselves to be the people of the earth and have deep feelings for the earth. Their racial characters have a lot of similarities.

Historically, the two races have a lot of complementarity and have had many experiences of cooperation.

The Goliaths needed weapons and armor forged by the dwarves, and the dwarves obtained meat supplies and some rare high-altitude open-pit minerals from the Goliaths.

Although the previous cooperation experience was not of much reference value in building this mountain city.

However, the good historical heritage would greatly reduce the possibility of conflict between them and make it easier for them to live together.

Although the order of the mission was completely disrupted, it did not affect the fruitful results.

In this process, Gavin exerted his ability to thread the needle and re-arrange the industry to the extreme.

Starting from an angle that they had never thought of before, breaking their original inherent thinking, stepping on his development train and becoming one of them.

When this development train began to roll forward, they couldn't get off the train even if they wanted to, because the interests would drive them forward, and many times they were helpless.

Another huge gain from Gavin's mission this time was that he had a clearer understanding of his future development direction, knew his own abilities, and how to convince the other party more easily-that is, to let them join his development train.

In fact, he has always done this.

Not only for those mortals, but also for the gods.

All the gods who have a close relationship with him are tightly bound by his development means. The closer the relationship, the stronger the binding.

The first one to bear the brunt is the lady of strategy. The two are in each other, and they are inseparable.

The second is the apple goddess Stelina. She will expand along with Gavin's expansion, which is many times faster than her own promotion.

The next one to be tightly bound will be the goddess of wealth Wakin.

Not to mention these local lords, the young goddess was also shocked by Gavin's series of plans. She can easily judge how this series of plans will promote the trade of Faerun.

She doesn't need to do anything, and a large amount of trade divinity and divine power will be generated.

And this is just the beginning. With the full development of Gavin's territory construction, more and more gods will become beneficiaries.

For example, the beneficiary of magic application is the goddess of magic, the beneficiary of large-scale education is the god of knowledge, and the beneficiary of the change of agricultural technology is the goddess of grain.

Even the war lord Tempus, who seems to be the least likely to benefit, will become a beneficiary, because those vested interests will definitely not give up after being impacted, and will eventually resort to force in a more vast way.

With a clear idea, it will be much easier to go to Samis Hills.

Samis Hills is actually the remnant of the Star Vortex Mountains. The highest hill here does not exceed 300 meters, but there is no flat place, and there are gullies and continuous ravines.

It is located on the east side of the Star Vortex Mountains, surrounded by the Vidars Forest and the Surdasken River.

In fact, this is the closest to the city of Dalauma, and Zalanda's rule has begun to radiate and affect this place.

The main residents here are halflings and dwarves. The terrain here is very suitable for them to build their unique semi-underground buildings.

Half is located in the mountain cave, and half is located outside the ground. There are a lot of narrow passages inside.

When facing danger, it is convenient for them to escape. This is the way for these small races to save their lives.

When Gavin arrived here, he felt like he had entered a Lilliputian country, where everything was smaller.

However, this was not a problem for Gavin. He directly used the shrinking technique, and his body doubled in proportion, turning into a tall halfling only 90 centimeters tall.

The average height of halflings is only eighty centimeters, which is about the same as a three- or four-year-old human child.

But few people would mistake them for human children, even if they deliberately disguise themselves, because human children are not fully developed and their body proportions are different from adults.

Halflings, on the other hand, are fully developed, and their body proportions are highly similar to those of adults, but they are just one size smaller.

If a human uses the shrinking technique, the transformed appearance will be the same as that of a halfling. With the naked eye alone, it is difficult to tell the difference between them. This is also the origin of the name halfling.

The origin of the halflings on Faerûn is no longer clear, and even the myths and legends of the halflings themselves are vague.

Many times they are regarded as vassals or mutants of humans, but in fact this small ethnic group has its own gods and gods. The main god of the halfling gods, Yodala, even has powerful divine power.

Halflings and dwarfs have never reached the same heights as dwarves and elves in the history of Faerun. The former owned the Shanatar Empire, and the latter once dominated the entire continent of Faerun. Where there are forests, there are elves.

But now, halflings and dwarfs have accepted the fact of the rise of human beings faster, especially the former. They are like the shadow of human beings. Wherever human footsteps go, there will be their presence and residence.

Most halflings lead semi-nomadic lives, wandering from one human town to another.

There are also a very small number of halflings who take root in places that do not compete fiercely with humans and establish their own gathering places or small kingdoms.

The Samis Hills are a prime example of this.

The halflings here are not disorderly. Not only do they have complete village facilities, but they also have their own army.

Most of these halfling soldiers rode tall and fierce riding dogs, patrolling back and forth on the hilly trails.

Don't underestimate their combat effectiveness because of their height. The small daggers in their hands are equally deadly once they hit a vital point. In order to make up for their lack of height, they usually quench poison on their weapons.

Moreover, there are a large number of hidden and small refuge caves along the way, into which they can retreat and wait for help.

If you are a spellcaster or a high-level professional, the size issue is no longer a problem.

Veranika, who has fallen from the third lord knight to the fourth lord knight, is a halfling.

But her ability will make people ignore this unknowingly.

All in all, the halflings are also a force that cannot be ignored, especially the halflings of Samis and the dwarfs who are highly cooperative.

Gavin not only discovered a large number of illusions in those halfling towns, he also saw dwarf alchemical muskets in the hands of those halfling soldiers.

This incident was unexpected and reasonable.

The dwarf's base camp, Lantan Island, is located directly west of Tethyr. The various new technologies of the gnomes have always been very popular in the kingdom of Tethyr.

It is normal for the dwarfs here to maintain close ties with Lantan Island.

The grandness with which Gavin was received here was no less grand than in Mosish City.

In front of the short fence wall, which could only protect against ordinary wild beasts, there were many short halflings and dwarfs.

The small windows of the hilly and semi-cave houses built against the mountains are even more crowded with little heads watching the excitement.

"Great Conqueror, welcome to Samir. Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Robock. I am the current Voice of the Hills. This is the dwarf spokesman Deronl. We are halflings and dwarfs respectively. Speak up." An older halfling came forward quickly and said enthusiastically.

Old age is the most discordant symbol for halflings. He is as tall as a child, but his face is covered with wrinkles and he has black and white hair.

Apart from their height, halflings are highly similar to humans in other aspects, including their life cycle.

The same person has different reputations among different races.

Compared with the newly acquired divine name, Gavin's secular nickname is undoubtedly more famous here - the Conqueror's Road passes through the Samir Hills not far away, and it is estimated that many halflings have walked this road.

"Thank you for allowing me to come and visit." Gavin praised without hesitation, "I didn't expect that there is a peaceful and peaceful territory among the hills. I believe you have made great efforts for this."

"Your Excellency, the Conqueror, is really overrated. The reason why peace can be maintained here is not because of our extraordinary abilities, but because this is a barren land.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

There are no precious mineral deposits, no large tracts of land suitable for farming, and it is not located on a military route.

After we showed our fangs a little, those noble gentlemen stopped paying attention to us. "

Although Robock, Voice of the Hills, was still smiling, his words revealed a deep sense of helplessness.

That is the helplessness exclusive to halflings.

They can only survive in the cracks of this world, and the most fertile lands will never be their turn.

Even if it is occupied, it is the source of disaster.

Sooner or later, one day it will bring disaster to them.

The safest way is to occupy useless territory like now and not give the enemy a reason to use force.

Gavin did not show empathy, as that would be too false, but instead said in a different way: "Many things are not static, especially with human intervention.

As long as you are willing, even a barren land can become fertile soil. I am here to bring you the method of transformation. "

Voice of the Hills Robock was immediately interested and asked curiously: "How to transform it?"

“If you want to get rich, build roads first.” Gavin shouted a familiar slogan, “Your road conditions are really bad, making it difficult for large vehicles to get in and out. No matter how many specialties you have, it will be difficult to transport them. "

Robock said with a sad face: "Why don't we know this, but road construction is a big project for us, especially road construction in hilly areas, the amount of work is larger, and for the same road, we have to pay more than Nearly ten times the workload of humans.”

"This is easy to handle. I can mobilize a road construction team to come and help build a road directly to Daluma City." Gavin already had a strategy waiting for him there.

"What does the Conqueror need from us in exchange?" Voice of the Hills also knows that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and the other party must have a motive for doing this.

"There is only one condition. Pledge allegiance to the Lord of Zalanda and support her rule. She will treat you all equally, just like she treats human subjects." Gavin stated directly.

Dealing with these halflings and dwarves is different from dealing with elves and dwarves.

The latter talks about nature, history, and inheritance, while the former just talks about worldly interests directly.

Voice of the Hills Robock couldn't help but look at each other with the dwarf spokesman Deronl, and it turned out to be true.

The dwarf spokesman, who had been silent all this time, said: "We have long heard about the just rule of the Lord of Zalanda City and do not question it.

But avoiding being involved in war is our way of survival. Convenient roads make it easier to transport our goods, but it is also easier for enemies to come in. Under the iron cavalry of humans, it is difficult for us to have the ability to protect ourselves. "

"Since you have sworn allegiance to the Lord of Zalanda, she will naturally shoulder the responsibility of protecting you." Gavin's eyes fell on the two dwarf pistols on the waist of the dwarf spokesman, "Your Excellency the spokesman is too humble. Yes, I have seen the power of your dwarf alchemy guns, and ordinary armor cannot protect against them."

When the conqueror's army passed through the Dragon Bay and clashed with the pirates on the Falling Star Sea, a large number of dwarf alchemical muskets were seized from those pirates.

Afterwards, Gai Wen Shao had to send someone to dismantle and imitate it.

It turns out that black gunpowder has no way of taking effect in Faerûn.

The gunpowder used by dwarfs is alchemical gunpowder. It is prepared by alchemy. The formula is completely different from black gunpowder. It is more powerful than black gunpowder and is somewhat similar to smokeless gunpowder.

But before Gavin had time to increase investment in the development of alchemical gunpowder, they had already imitated the skeleton cannon on a large scale, and now they also had elemental energy concentrators.

This is equivalent to opening a new track.

Elemental energy weapons are already close at hand, so what else is there to do with alchemical gunpowder?

"Your Majesty the Conqueror also said that they can penetrate ordinary armor." The dwarf spokesman Londel was not so easily shaken, "As long as you are slightly prepared, whether it is arrow deflection or magic armor, it will become ineffective. "

This is another reason why Gavin has not stepped up the research and development of gunpowder weapons.

Let alone the early to mid-term, even the effects of automated weapons are greatly reduced in the magical world and can easily be restrained.

Magic shield, spiritual transformation, illusion fog, control magic, etc.

Just like crossbows, they rely on their own kinetic energy and have high initial lethality. However, after they are developed, they are basically fixed and difficult to integrate into the professional level system.

"What if I had a way to upgrade your alchemical gunpowder weapons to make them more lethal?" Gavin took the right medicine and offered a temptation that the dwarves could not refuse.

"Alchemical gunpowder weapon upgrade?" As expected, the dwarf spokesman frowned and looked at Gavin with a suspicious attitude.

Gavin didn't waste any time. He took out a small weapon from his portable bag and asked, "Do you have a shooting range here?"

"This is this?" The dwarf spokesman's gaze fell on this weapon and he could no longer take his eyes away.

Its shape is 80% similar to the dwarf alchemy gun, except that the hand rest is no longer made of wood, but made of red crystal. You can vaguely see a rolling flame, a bit like a flying dragon spreading its wings. ,vivid.

Even with the unique aesthetic point of view of the dwarf, I have to secretly praise it for its beauty.

"Elemental gun, this is the primary experimental version of Agni Type 61." Gavin handed it directly to the dwarf spokesman without saying a word.

Anyway, for these dwarfs, there is not much technical difficulty. The difficult thing is the materials and the method of manufacturing the elemental energy concentrator.

Yes, this is an in-depth use of the elemental concentrator.

The crimson crystal handle is a special elemental energy concentrator, which already contains a flaming flying dragon.

This is the latest research result of Gavin and the legendary arcanist before coming to Samir Hills.

The purpose is to give these dwarfs a little technological shock and make it easier to get them on board.

The dwarf spokesman didn't waste any time and took it directly. He looked up and down, his brows getting tighter as he looked at it. He stood up impatiently, threw off his short legs and walked out, "Follow me."

They walked up the rugged mountain road for nearly 20 minutes before reaching the top. Gavin just followed closely behind them, communicating with them as they walked, without using any extraordinary means.

After reaching the top, the view suddenly opened up, with a wide stone land on the top of the mountain. Not far away stood a huge stone five meters high and three or four meters wide.

This huge stone was full of pits and potholes, like a honeycomb.

It was obvious that it had been destroyed by these dwarves and halflings on weekdays, and it was their target stone.

"How to use it?" asked the dwarf spokesman. (End of this chapter)
