Chapter 371: Lord of War
This business is of course the hottest now.
War is about to break out between Demacia and Noxus.
Noxus, with a great victory, faced Demacia, which had been recuperating for many years.
There is no doubt that this cannot be resolved by one or two wars.
So at this time, whether it is medicines, arrows, or consumables such as gunpowder, muskets, and cannons , they will be needed in multiples.
In order to avoid having its transportation cut off, Demacia also needs to increase its investment in the navy.
It's not that they are incapable of forging their own cannons, but unfortunately, although their smelting technology is very good, their cannon-forging technology is far inferior to that of Piltover.
Therefore, they have to come to Piltover to get the goods.
Although Noxus is able to manufacture weapons in large quantities, its quality can only be described as sturdy and durable. Its accuracy and destructive power are obviously inferior to those of Demacia.
So they also have to come to Piltover to buy things.
This is an opportunity.
And Hilco, through Jinx, found Li Ke who wanted to do something.
"You are really a reckless hyena, Hilco. You dare to do something that so many people dare not do."
Li Ke narrowed his eyes.
As for the fact that he kept gathering people to research weapons, Giraman knew that the electricians here knew about it, so the upper echelons of Piltover would also know about it.
But the reason why they didn't dare to come was because they felt that this was Li Ke's forbidden food, and the Demacia and Noxian people were making more and more trouble in Piltover, which was also related to the fact that their negotiations with Piltover had not been smooth.
Since they were unable to get enough goods, they could only keep expressing their determination.
"Ah, after all, if we small people want to start a rebellion, we must rely on towering trees. I don't mind becoming a glove, as long as Zaun can rise, and of course, Jinx's happiness."
Li Ke was silent for a while, and finally sighed helplessly.
"Go back and listen to the news."
"Thank you very much."
He turned and left. If he had a few more trustworthy people here, he would not have used Hilco.
But unfortunately, the only one who is capable and aware is the gang leader whom he looks down upon.
This is the helpless part.
He has no one.
"Headache……"
Li Ke walked quickly into the power plant, and Jinx, holding his notebook, followed immediately, looking at Li Ke with some concern.
"Uncle Li Ke...Silko."
"He's fine."
Li Ke stopped, his tone helpless.
"It's just that he's not my best candidate, but my only candidate. He actually saw through this, which makes me very unhappy. I won't do anything to him. After all, he is very capable, and he is also your guardian."
After patting Jinx's head, Li Ke decided to let the matter go.
If Hilco wants to work for him, then let him work for him. After all, when the right person comes, there will be plenty of people to replace him. The other party also calculated this, so he came to him.
"The most important thing is our current weapon design. How is the design of the Maxim heavy machine gun?"
Jinx nodded and opened her notebook.
"The design of the Maxim heavy machine gun has been completed, and I have made a sample. However, this heavy machine gun still cannot directly penetrate the rune steel armor of the Demacia Dreadnought Legion. The average thickness of those armors is 2.5 centimeters. The strength of our current gunpowder is not enough to support the penetration of them... Although we have it, the current chemical industry capacity cannot guarantee safe and effective large-scale production."
"That's enough. Heavy machine guns are used against ordinary soldiers, not these cans."
If someone on Earth were to write a piece of armor that was two and a half centimeters thick, someone would definitely say that the person who wrote this was an idiot. It is impossible for humans to charge into battle wearing armor that was two and a half centimeters thick, because that is not a weight that humans should bear.
But in this world, any elite warrior can charge while wearing 2.5 cm thick armor, and fight for the entire day.
Looking for the real physics of the earth in this world is really crazy.
"can?"
"Yes, cans. This will be our main product in the future, but you don't have to worry about it. The principle is very simple and can be handed over to ordinary scientists. What you need to do now is to study tanks and assist Victor in researching an iron suit."
Li Ke quickly assigned the tasks.
Jinx is good at researching weapons, such as guns, explosives, and missiles.
In fact, Victor is not good at researching weapons. He is best at human body modification, mechanical structures, and robots.
He himself mainly studies how to expand the production line and set up factories.
Seriously, he should switch with Jayce, him to Ionia and Jayce to Piltover.
Unfortunately, it cannot be changed.
But when Jinx and Viktor come together, it becomes...
Iron Man!
That’s right, Li Ke doesn’t intend to follow the old simulation path, that would be too boring.
"Iron Suit?"
"That's right. Since Demacia's steel cans are so difficult to deal with, let's turn ordinary soldiers into steel cans. Although they don't have their physique, they have science as their strength."
"You mean, using clockwork power or electricity or something to drive a suit of steel armor, which not only gives great strength, but also great protection and mobility, and can carry more weapons that humans cannot use?"
Jinx understood Li Ke's thoughts instantly, and her voice was trembling with excitement, even cracking a little.
It's so broken that it looks a bit like Jinx in the game.
"That's right. Untrained flesh and blood cannot be compared with steel, so just make them become steel."
Tanks have no place to live in this world, and it is not a problem for those canned knights to overturn tanks. Unlike in reality, the power source of the iron armor in reality is a huge problem, but in this magical world, the problem of steel production, which has never been considered in the real world, has become a problem instead.
As for the power issue?
That’s not a problem, there are so many ways to get moving.
If that doesn't work, just wind it up and turn it a few times and it will run all day.
And you can even wind the spring of a clockwork machine that winds the mechanism specifically for that purpose.
"But that will cost money, my great genius, so stop dreaming."
A somewhat tired voice sounded.
It was Victor's voice, and he came out of the workshop, yawning.
"Besides, the steel production in Piltover is not enough for you. Just one production line for Maxim heavy machine guns and the corresponding bullets is enough to cover all the steel production in Piltover."
Li Ke fell silent.
He asked tentatively.
"Then, besides Demacia and Noxus, where is the most steel?"
But Victor just rolled his eyes in response.
"Freljord, my lord, that is why I say you should stop dreaming."
The Destiny Girl Extra 7: The Death of God
Yuan Luzhi remembered it clearly. That was what he saw in heaven before he fell into the demon realm:
The powerful human empire rose for the third time, and this time, just like the last time , it was a miracle created by a man who carried the destiny and bravely moved forward.
With such achievements, wisdom and military prowess, even gods would look at him with awe.
Then, a god said.
'So powerful, so beautiful, and so virtuous, we should take her up to heaven and make her one of our own.'
The gods all looked at the person who made this statement sideways, but no one of them could say no.
But at this moment, a Trinity god from the West spoke worriedly.
'Ah, my dear fellow gods, I would not mind having such a hero join our ranks, in fact, I would gladly woo her if she would join us. However, she is heading towards the territory of my people.'
The gods were silent, because they all knew that this King of the Trinity, the God of Mountains, oppressed women and doted on his own people.
Now he couldn't help but praise the hero below, which naturally made the gods happy.
But, regrettably, the Trinitarian God made a decision.
'She has no enemies in the world anymore, and her power is no less than that of some weaker gods. She will become arrogant and look down on all of us, so I decided to make her understand the greatness of the gods. I will transform myself into the highest power in the world to prevent her from disturbing my people, and let her understand the power of nature and gods.'
The gods all nodded in agreement. They were happy to have this extraordinary human being become one of them, but none of them wanted someone who was overbearing and domineering.
So, they bid farewell to the three-phase god, who came to the human world and turned into the Himalayas.
As a result, the mountain became extremely solid, and the digging speed of the unparalleled man of destiny gradually slowed down.
Her sharp spear could no longer pierce the Himalayas, which were protected by divine power, because that was the backbone of all mountains in the world and the ultimate form of countless mountains.
The Trimurti who incarnated into the Himalayas is not only the main god, but also the mountain god, the god of mountain gods.
The excavation reached a deadlock, and the mortals who accompanied her began to give up, for they could think of nothing stronger or sharper than iron and bronze.
The gods felt that the time had come. As long as this woman gave up, people from various divine realms would appear and invite her into their respective divine realms.
But at that time, Enryuchi felt that her destiny was likely to be married to the three-phase god.
But when everyone thought that this unparalleled person with destiny would give up, she broke through herself once again.
"If the tools are not good enough, create better tools. If the power is not strong enough, train yourself to be stronger. This is the way of survival given to us by God. If we adhere to this path, each of us is the executor of God's destiny!"
She forged the steel and brought out the dynamite.
But still no god thought that the Three-phase God would lose.
He is the King of Gods, and with the power of the Himalayas, he will not lose and is invincible.
But the destined man challenged again.
At the beginning it was only one centimeter, the second attack was able to break through two centimeters, and the third time, it directly broke through three centimeters.
The Three-Phase God felt panic, but he did not leave. Instead, he instigated an avalanche, and rocks continued to roll down from the mountain, attacking ordinary people.
Ordinary people began to talk about the power of gods. In their dreams, gods kept warning them, warning them not to continue digging, otherwise more severe divine punishment would come.
But this only made the destined person burst out with even more powerful power.
"How dare you play tricks on me!"
A violent force emerged from the woman. She let the frightened people go and continued digging alone.
Feeling he had won, the Trimurti walked into her dream.
'Human, I am the mountain god here. I have to say that you have done well enough, but you are only a human being after all, and you have your limits. Your body can no longer hold on right? Put down your gun and become my wife. I will grant you eternal life and a greater mission.'
He was full of ambition and felt that he could definitely get this person by using the fear of death.
'A greater mission?'
The human asked.
'Yes, praise my greatness, fight for me, let the world and the gods know my glory, and you, as my wife, will share my glory and power.'
He made the highest promise, and Yuan Luzhi still can't forget the ugly face of the other party's original wife.
But the next moment, something happened that no god expected.
"So he's just another crazy lunatic?"
The woman picked up her spear in her dream.
"How dare you, a coward like you, appear before me!"
"You don't respect God's will!"
The spear stabbed out and pierced the god's chest.
At this moment, things changed completely.
The angry god returned to the mountain, and he continued to cause various disasters to affect the woman.
Flash floods, landslides, snow avalanches, attacks by wild animals, and even being buried alive.
But all the disasters could not stop this woman. The destiny she talked about seemed to really exist. Any disaster that stood in her way was overcome by her and then destroyed.
But destiny?
There is no destiny in this world, and no one knows this better than the gods themselves.
Because they are destiny.
This so-called unparalleled person who upholds the destiny, the destiny she praises is nothing more than her own belief.
God began to feel fear and panic.
The same was true for the Three-Phase God. He wanted to leave and gave up, because as the passage was continuously dug, his vitality continued to decline.
He tried every way to leave here, but every time he tried to leave the mountain, an illusory spear would appear on his chest and nail him to the position of mountain god.
He became more and more crazy, because he knew that this was a challenge. What held him back was not something else but the woman's will to fight.
Therefore, the battle between the two became like this: once the other party broke through the mountain range, he would die along with the Himalayas. But if she did not break through the Himalayas before the other party died, her soul would completely dissipate.
Things have come to this point and there is no longer any room for saving face.
The gods revealed their ugliness.
He cursed the other party madly, but unfortunately, the passage was still to be opened.
So in the end, the Trinity met the woman again in a dream and cursed her.
'I curse you, the man of destiny. You will never be able to truly die. You will always wander and fight with the pain on your back. You will never be able to enjoy the peace you have brought. Even after you completely lose all consciousness, you will still have to continue fighting. Fear this. This is God's will...'
The man also gave his response in the dream.
"How dare you, a lowly person, look down on me!"
She threw her spear, and Mount Everest broke into pieces. The last inch of the passage was also pierced through by the spear.
Also pierced through are the Three-phase God.
The gods were terrified.
