Lin En shook his head slightly, “It only takes a few days to see a person’s character and know the development ideas of a place. Especially for an orc like you who has traveled across the continent and has experienced a lot, you can even know this place at a glance. Is it worth choosing?

I value capable people and will arrange them in positions suitable for them. After these few days, you have understood what you should know, and you have a relatively clear understanding of Ashes Town. I am not saying this. in a hurry.

Of course, if you feel anxious, you can continue to learn more. ”

Lynn gave him a choice without any force, but this choice is different. Levine’s choice will determine his future position.

Levin asked seriously: “Before I answer, I want to ask you a question. If orcs settle here in the future and their bloodline awakens, causing enemies to pursue them, will you care?”

“My subjects can only be dealt with by me. No matter who dares to do something that harms the subjects, I will make him pay with blood!” Lin En made his own promise.

Levin stood up, faced Linn, muttered words, and little elements gathered in his hands.

He took out the dagger and cut a wound on his hands. The blood dripped, but formed a magic circle full of complicated lines on the ground.

“I swear allegiance to Lord Linn Olis in the name of the half-orc Levin. The oath is unbreakable and the blood oath will last forever. If it is violated, the bloodline will collapse.”

The magic circle glowed with dazzling blood, then turned into a mark and disappeared into Levin’s forehead.

“You are doing this!” Linn was surprised.

“The blood oath of the orcs, as long as you can keep us safe, we will always be loyal to you.” Levin explained.

Lin En understood that the prerequisite for loyalty was that he did those things, which was no problem. He had to protect his people.

“In this case, the next thing is easy to say. I hope you will be responsible for crops and livestock, continue to expand the scale, and reserve grain. I will establish the Ministry of Agriculture. Currently, you are the Minister of Agriculture.”

Although Levin didn’t know what the Ministry of Agriculture was, he could understand that this department was definitely not simple. No matter which race you were in, the importance of food was self-evident.

“Thank you for your attention, I will do my best.”

“Okay, you have become a part of Ashes Town, then I will take you to see a project that is currently being researched.”

He can feel the power of the oath, and Levin is also a spell caster, so he should be able to provide some ideas.

The two came to the factory area. One area was blocked by a tall wall, and explosions were heard from time to time.

Entering inside, a continuous blast furnace is running, with a raging fire burning inside.

When the flame in a blast furnace goes out, someone cleans out the ashes and residue, then finds tiny crystal stones and carefully places them in a container.

The temperature here is very high and you can feel the magic gathering.

Levin was surprised, “Fire rune?”

“That’s right, fire runes are added to each blast furnace.”

He entered the house, where Hamid was studying the crystals and arranging them.

Seeing Lin En coming, Hamid said: “You came just in time. Your idea gave me ideas before. I used crystal stones to set up a magic circle. Do you want to see its power?”

“Can!”

Hamid took the crystal and came to a special testing area, which was surrounded by open space. There were a large number of potholes on the ground here, and experiments were obviously conducted frequently.

He arranged the crystals neatly one by one, then injected magic power into each crystal and left quickly.

Just a few seconds later, the magic circle was formed, but the crystals inside became unstable.

“boom!”

An explosion sounded.

The sound was deafening, and a large pit of four to five meters and three meters wide appeared on the spot. Some of the soil melted due to the high temperature.

Levin was shocked as to why those crystals had such powerful power.

Hamid came over and said: “This is just a primary magic circle, and the effect is not great, but the magic crystal used to arrange the magic circle has been replaced by spar, and the explosion power is enough to compare with the third-level attack magic.

In fact, if there are more crystals, the power will increase, but I dare not experiment. The increase in the number means greater instability. Maybe there will be an explosion before I get far away. ”

“Can it be injected remotely, or is it delayed?” Linn asked.

“Yes, but the magic power will be lost once the distance is far away. If an ordinary spellcaster wants to detonate the crystal, the distance cannot be too far. As for the delay, we are currently studying it.” Hamid replied.

“In addition, there is already a model for the emitting crystal you mentioned before, but there are big problems.”

“what is the problem?”

Hamid took out a strange-looking thing with a metal shell and a wooden handle.

This is exactly the pistol that Linn asked Kiel to build, but since gunpowder was not effective, he chose this spar instead.

At first, the pistol created by Kiel was too bulky and difficult for even a knight to hold. Later, it was changed to reduce the size and add a wooden handle.

Hamid put a crystal into it, and then pointed the pistol into the distance. He turned the wrench, and a sound was heard. The crystal was ejected and exploded in the distance.

He gave Linn the pistol and spar again, and Linn shot the gun. Looking at the explosion in the distance, he understood the problem.

“Range and accuracy, right?”

“Well, the pistol you are talking about has a very short range and can only use small crystals. If it were larger, the aftermath of the explosion would still hurt the user. The accuracy is very poor, not even as good as The assassin’s dagger throws with precision.”

Hamid waved his hand again, “It’s too bulky. After firing, there is a force backwards, which makes my hands hurt. I can fire it three times in a row at most before I have to rest. In addition, this barrel cannot withstand too much.” After several shots, after experiments, it will deform after up to eight shots.”

“It seems that the problem is not small.” Lin En touched his chin, thinking.

The emergence of crystals replaced gunpowder and even bullets, which made Lynn think of making guns, but at present, the conventional pistol shape does not seem to be suitable.

Moreover, what a pistol wants is convenience, speed, filling, and accuracy. This pistol takes advantage of none of them.

Maybe the only benefit is being able to shoot it.

Levine said thoughtfully, “I have a question, why do you want this model?”

“Do you have any ideas?” Lynn asked.

Levin replied, “Among the orcs.”

Hamid was startled and looked at the other party. Unexpectedly, the lord even found the orcs.

Levin didn’t seem to notice his expression and continued: “We have a weapon called the Stinging Arrow, which uses the spikes of the Stinging Beast. Poison is applied to the tip. The weapon is equipped with an arrow slot. As long as enough spikes are added, Put it inside, aim it at the enemy, press the button on the back, and the spike will bounce to the arrow mouth, and then shoot out.”

Linn and Hamid looked at each other, both of them had puzzled expressions on their faces, and they didn’t understand what he meant at all.

“Can you draw it?” Lynn asked.

“Can.”

Hamid found paper and pen, and Levin thought about it from time to time, and then drew a few strokes.

A strange-looking weapon appeared on the paper. Linn looked at it and thought about it.

This stabbing arrow is a bit like a combination of a crossbow and a revolver. The trigger that Levine mentioned is a wrench. Every time it is pulled, the bullet (the spike) is held against, and then the trigger is pulled to shoot.

There is a relatively large quiver on the left side of the stabbing arrow, which contains spikes. When the wrench is turned, the spikes fall in. After the spikes are used up, they can be filled directly. Compared with the revolver, it is larger in volume, but There are far more spikes than the revolver can hold.

Hamid said: “He was right just now. Do we have to use this look?”

Linn looked at the pistol, “It’s not necessary to use this shape, but I think it conforms to people’s habits. Do you have any other ideas?”

He subconsciously made the shape of a pistol entirely because of his previous idea that if crystals could replace bullets, it would be better to use a pistol. However, it seems that this is not the case now.

To put it bluntly, he was still influenced by conventional thinking.
