Chapter 147: Real Value
The whole Thunder Legion set out, and the only ones who came to the near Tieyan City were Du Nan and others. According to the old man Xue Rat, the human legion needed some small procedures before entering the city. Going directly into the city is equivalent to starting the "siege" mode. This procedure is very simple, indicating that it is not enough to siege the city. Because the beasts in the Land of Zhongle are very rampant, they often attack towns and cities. Especially in cities with "rich food", beasts will attack every few days. In order to prevent some people from deliberately guiding the beasts to invade, they must check before entering the city.
on the other hand.
The security defense of cities is a hundred times higher than that of towns, and most people like to flock to the city to live. The more people there are in the city, the more greedy beasts like to attack, which will form an insolvable cycle of understanding. Because humans and wild beasts cannot communicate at all, they must block all the possibility of invasion of beast groups.
Dunan was not surprised to hear this.
Along the way, the Thunder God Legion encountered more than a dozen beast groups, and Du Nan also realized that the biological chain of the "Immortal Land" was abnormal.
Humans here reproduce faster, and wild animals are faster.
"Stop the person coming, stop the horse." At the outpost of the city, a group of forty cavalry rushed out and shouted loudly towards Du Nan and his group.
Everyone collected the reins.
The old man Xueshi said softly: "Chief, every city has such a frontier. First, it is to monitor whether there are any animal groups around it invasions, and second, it is to review the pedestrian barriers. We only need..."
Before the Snow Rat finished speaking.
The captain of the sentry waved and shouted loudly: "Who are you? What's the group? What's the matter when you come to Tieyan City?"
The old man Xue Rat responded in a calm voice: "We are from the Thunder Legion, and we come to Iron Rock City to trade goods."
The captain of the whistle guard was slightly stunned and shouted: "What Thunder Legion, we have never heard of it. Do you want to enter the city? Yes. Take off your armor and leave your war cavalry, and this woman will stay. When you leave the city, we will return her to you."
Du Nan was surprised when he heard this, but Old Snow Rat, Hong Jie and his group laughed, smiling strangely.
Dunan wondered: "There are such rules when entering the city?"
The old man Xueshi smiled and said, "No, Iron Rock City... No, all cities do not belong to any legion, nor do they belong to any individual. The city is absolutely free to use, and anyone can enter and exit freely. Even the legion that builds city walls and high-rise buildings only have the right to use the construction location. The name of the legion can be engraved as a famous advertisement. Only the high-rise buildings built by this legion can be retained by themselves. Singles and small teams can pass by just a greeting, and the legion needs to sign up for the number of people. As long as you check the legion's back there is no beast group followed, you can basically enter the city directly."
Dunan was even more strange: "Then these people..."
The old man Xuema responded quickly: "It's just a group of fooling little miscellaneous people. They saw that our horses had no vests, and thought we were all newcomers, and wanted to be fooled to get some benefits. The leader, in the Land of End, only the conventional rules, and there is no such foolish party."
The faces of the guards changed, but they did not dare to continue yelling.
"You...you are..." The captain of the sentry was a little cold when he heard these words.
This time it was his turn to finish his words, and the old man Xue Rat interrupted directly: "Tit, teach him a lesson so that outsiders can think that our Thunder Legion is easy to bully."
No one can wait for everyone to react.
The tit turned around and showed a light gesture that a tiger-headed orc had already waved his sword and cut the sentry captain who was drawing the sword gear into two pieces with one sword.
Blood was flying, and the sentries were even more afraid to move.
"I'll say again, please send someone to repay us. Our name is Thunder Legion, and this is our leader, Lord Du Nan. The number of soldiers in our army is 30,000, and all the beasts are riding. This time, we came to Tieyan City to trade goods, mainly to customize riding armor, buy fine wine and women. You don't have to send someone to see if there is a group of beasts behind us. Along the way, we killed sixteen waves of beasts before coming here." The old man Xueshi said, and one of the deputy captains quickly took the record, for fear of missing a word.
The rest of the people gently helped the captain and waited for him to reply slowly.
Facing a large legion of 30,000 people, he must have suffered the pain of this sword. The largest legion in the entire Iron Rock City is only about 5,000 people. Who can afford such a "big master" of 30,000 people?
I heard that 30,000 people were all riding and all beasts, and there was still a shortage of wine and women... I didn't want to use it too much, and the merchants would be happy as soon as the news spread.
"Please, please." The deputy captain bowed and asked.
He believed very much that 30,000 people and horses were galloping, and there were absolutely no group of beasts nearby who dared to come and seek death.
The snow rat signaled again: "Chief, the procedures for entering the city are so simple. It explains the number of people and the purpose of the army, so that the merchants in the city can prepare corresponding goods. We have a large number of people, and they need to prepare a large number of housing. They ride all the beasts, and they need to prepare the placement of beasts and hunting beasts. There are also weapons merchants, armor-casting craftsmen, wine merchants and some idle women who will come over to see if there is a possibility of reaching a deal."
While talking.
The Eagle Beak had signaled a scout to go back and report, allowing the Thunder God Legion, who was following from afar, to follow and enter the city.
Du Nan walked towards the city gate with everyone and asked strangely: "Old Xue, we have more than 30,000 people. Can Tieyan City be so easy to entertain?"
The old man Xuema smiled: "Of course, the leader. Not to mention 30,000 people, 300,000 people are not difficult. Do you know how many tall buildings there are, how many idle workers there are, and how many merchants there are? Although the energy constraints of the Land of Finale reduce high-tech products such as machinery and intelligence, everyone still understands this knowledge. This is no different from a modern city, except for the lack of interstellar warships and nuclear energy furnaces."
Earlier.
Du Nan has seen a large number of fires absorbed by energy, and he can imagine that high-tech products such as melting pots will definitely not be able to be produced. However, the knowledge in everyone's mind is still there, and some things that are convenient for life are not difficult to transform and use. For example, there are no requirements for tall buildings. In such a place with unlimited manpower and unlimited time, it is not difficult to build a tall building at all.
"Chief, don't think too much, just enter the city and take a look." The old man Xuema smiled.
"Yes." Dunan nodded.
Soon, the group rode wild horses through the high walls of the city.
Surprisingly.
Outside the wall and inside the wall are two different worlds. Apart from a very high, very thick, and very hard copper and iron wall, the city is a completely modern city. The only difference is that most of the roads are riding beasts and riding beasts, and very few cars are driving. Dunan also guessed that horses are more convenient. They are different from cars that eat "oil" and "electricity", and can be fed anytime and anywhere in the wild.
The oil and electricity needed by cars can still think of ways in the city, leaving the city is equivalent to scrap iron.
There are many tall buildings in the city and the greening is also very good.
It is worth noting that the entire city has a steel plate-like protective layer on the ground, as if to prevent anything from drilling out from underground. Of course, there are many sewers and underground walkways, but they are all tightly isolated by steel plates. At most, big mice and other types of people drilled through it, and there are no larger insects and beasts passing through it.
There are many people in the city, very many.
How to say it.
Except for a few idle gardens, most places are crowded with people, which is similar to the train station at the busiest time.
"You can build cars, but you can't make swords?" Du Nan couldn't figure it out.
What are the problems with modern craftsmanship, batch manufacturing of swords?
Could it be...
"The material is too poor, leader." Old Snow Rat would have wondered about this problem before he knew Du Nan would have wondered about this problem, and explained: "Those cars are just toys, and larger beasts fall apart at the beat. Here we cannot make high-temperature steelmaking furnaces, so the quality of steel is very low, even worse than that of the scorpion shells. The gods and gods have weapons, and the worst is hard steel making that ordinary people cannot imagine. The power of gods is not comparable to that of technology."
"That's true." Du Nan thought of his magical sword.
Although its energy has been absorbed and turned into an ordinary weapon,... its hardness and sharpness are at least several times that of a normal steel sword.
The magic weapon that loses energy is still much better than ordinary knife weapons.
Suddenly.
Du Nan began to realize... he was still thinking about the problem from the perspective of "God". Even if he had stopped his power, he still placed himself in the position of a craftsman god to look at things. Therefore, now he feels that many things are unreasonable.
In fact.
Apart from himself, others do not have the power or resources of the craftsman.
For them, when the power lock is blocked to this level...there is only a little bit of what they can do.
Why do ordinary people like to use swords as "money"? It's not because swords are suitable for fighting, but because the weapons of god-level warriors have materials that ordinary people cannot imagine, and even fragments are more precious than gold that is not good to use.
In the small chaos area, the divine crystal sand grains on the sand island are "money"... because mortals cannot break any divine crystal around them.
Swords in the Land of Finale are ‘money’... because ordinary people can never create metal tools of this material.
At this time.
A group of people on the roadside attracted Du Nan's attention. A businessman who was buying and selling weapons was raising his long sword and slashing the five long swords arranged in front of him.
One sword cuts down, and five swords are broken.
The crowd of onlookers was in an uproar, and more soldiers were trying to buy and sell.
Needless to say.
The five long swords arranged are all made by ordinary people, and only that long sword is the product of God.
"The value of a sword lies in its sharpness and hardness. The man just used the most direct method. Using weapons to fight or cutting off a small iron rod, you can tell the value of the weapon by just a try. The leader, this is the "money" in the Land of End, and the money everyone recognizes. In addition to being a weapon, some tools also require this kind of material and steel. If it weren't for too many such weapons, it would be impossible to change it with just a riding beast. Why can they make people work hard? Now the leader understands?" Old Snow Rat was also a god-level warrior, and the definition of this kind of "money" is the most reasonable.
"As other tool?" Du Nan heard something special.
"Yes. For example, sticks are used for a certain pillar, and their material is better than ordinary casting. For example, square shields can also be used for protection of certain cabinets, or even converted into safes. As long as the materials are good enough, there is naturally more things to do." The old man Xueshi explained.
"Homemade swords, some carapaces that cannot cut off wild beasts at all." The soft tits said that many things have been shown.
On the Finale Continent.
In terms of strength.
God and man have indeed reached the same level. However, who Tama really believes that man and God are the same. The knowledge, resources, and abilities between the two... are too many things that cannot be compared. In addition to life that will not die, even in terms of strength, the martial god with a war body incarnation is countless times stronger than ordinary people.
For example, Du Nan himself...how many people can challenge the dragon with swords?
The place of happiness has not changed.
