Above The Sky (Yin Tianshen Yin) Chapter 76: The rapidly developing Xiahuiling (6000)

"What... Hades?"

Adelbert blinked.

He was a little unresponsive.

Tara's underworld myth is not well developed, probably because some legends have been lost due to the disaster of the sky, and now the folks are more

The most common is the system of "heaven and hell", and most sublimated people are very clear

The ultimate destination of the soul is to return to the natural cycle.

Except for the Resurrection Sect, not many people are interested in the "afterlife"—the absolute mainstream is to seek a happy life.

Ian took the thick stack of conceptual and calculation drawings from the young dead king, and scanned the thinking and calculation process on it.

Adelbert's thinking was indeed optimized according to Ian's original thinking.

Initially, Ian thought of using artificial souls to gather numbers to activate the spiritual core.

Ordinary people really can't stimulate the active offensive ability of the core of the spiritual weapon like the second energy level and the third energy level,

However, it can also stimulate the conversion of source matter and psionic energy, and activate the psionic shield. Of course, the most critical point is a powerful "energy furnace core... and this is actually the best solution.

Whether it is the earth vein furnace, the ether core technology that Ian already has, or the Youpin engine at the bottom of Xiahui Lake, it can all be used. But the problem with this idea is that in order to activate the spiritual shield, you need time to gather enough people.

It's okay to pay for natural disasters. For example, there will be signs of a major storm for at least an hour. This time is enough for local residents to gather in key shelters to activate the spiritual core.

But if it was the kind of surprise attack that Ian went to Xiahui, how could ordinary people react?

Once a war starts, it will still cause great casualties.

Adelbert has seen this from the beginning, he is keenly aware of the potential and drawbacks of this technology, so

Try to make up for it using the means available.

Since the body moves and reacts slowly and cannot keep up with the Ascendant's surprise attack, then don't use the body!

Meditation can increase the strength of the soul, and ordinary second-level sublimators can only win in terms of quantity, plus the traction and protection of the spiritual core, it is completely feasible.

Since this is the case, then simply strengthen the function in this area, so that people can leave their souls and wander outside their bodies!

Under the traction of the spiritual tool core, the soul can move at a speed almost instantaneous. As long as it encounters danger, it can immediately go to the spiritual tool core to activate the shield to activate.

This idea is obviously much more perfect than the crude idea that Ian conceived at the beginning.

In the beginning, Ian also wanted to praise Yadbert, but then, he thought of one thing. ﹣After entering the core of spiritual equipment, the soul can return to the body after the asylum is over. .....

However, the shield is not omnipotent, and there are still many accidents.

What if the body is destroyed in a disaster?

Unless Ian establishes a matching national DNA storage and a convenient and quick clone cultivation system, otherwise, this soul can only stay in the spiritual core.

Also, without the support of a trained body, clones simply cannot accommodate the soul of a person who has practiced meditation. ﹣Its body does not have enough source matter and related spiritual matter channels, and the soul enters it

It will only consume itself, and it will die soon, just like staying in the outside world.

But here comes the problem.

Do you really need to go out?

Ian asked himself and answered: Of course it is not necessary. Staying in the core of a spiritual tool can nourish the soul, and casually entering an inappropriate body will lead to death.

Then, how many souls can a spiritual tool core store?

Ian has not produced it yet, but it is estimated that it should be no problem to accommodate tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of ordinary people.

The performance limitation is not the limit of the technology of the spiritual tool core itself, just like the gap between mobile computers and desktop computers, the spiritual tool core placed in the territory must be stronger.

Souls that have lost their bodies can enter it to seek refuge, but can the souls of the ordinary old dead?

Of course, the lifespan of the soul and the body is another system, the old dead

The dissipation of the soul is only due to the collapse of the body, without the support of spiritual matter, the spiritual core can replace all the supplies of the body. Also, the core energy of spiritual equipment

How long will the soul be sheltered?

The answer is that as long as the energy is sufficient, it is unlimited.

The more he asked and answered, the more shocked Ian was.

An artificial soul, a sanctuary for storing souls, enough energy and a long-lasting place after death. ....this is

The underworld created by man!

"If it is said that Grand Duke Sorin went to the center of the earth to use the heat energy of the planet to create **** in order to maintain a world after death almost eternally, then the concept you just proposed, Adalbert, is to create **** on the surface of the earth. On top of that, build a temporary "Hades! "

"Moreover, the more souls it protects, the stronger the shield of the spiritual weapon core... as long as it reaches a certain level

Order of magnitude, more than 300,000, that is, after the critical population of Avak Territory, even

Excitedly grabbing the dead king's researcher's shoulder, Ian noticed that the researcher was still a little dazed.

Temporary Underworld "almost has no disadvantages except that it takes a lot of energy. Of course, for most forces, this is the biggest disadvantage.

This is no wonder the other party, because no one knows how much energy technology he has in his hands except Ian himself, so it is impossible to think about "sustainability."

Yes, is it so powerful? "

Adelbert is a very smart person. He didn't understand the situation at first, but now he reacted, and he couldn't help but open his eyes: "Yes, yes—this is far better than Grand Duke Sorin Method! And it doesn't need to be completely

The dead king is a shelter built by people spontaneously! "

Still thinking about your Grand Duke Sorin? The old stuff should have retired from the environment long ago.

Ian complained in his heart, but he also knew that it was normal for the other party to miss him.

However, to be honest, it is quite strange.

Adelbert is a man who creates a result that far exceeds what his idea itself needs for a not-so-grand idea.

Just like this time - he just wanted to find a better and faster way to protect the souls of ordinary people, but in the end he created the prototype of an artificial Hades.

The same is true of the dead king and the artificial soul. At first, he simply completed the task assigned by Grand Duke Sorin.

It can only be said that Adbert's talent is truly incredible, and it is no wonder that Duke Thorin valued him so much, and even gave him all of his Inaiga heritage.

Of course, the man-made Hades technology is only a rudimentary form. It can only be said that a new folder has just been created and two PTTs have been written.

There are still many technical barriers to break through.

For example, how to adjust the meditation method, how to create a spiritual tool core, and how to use artificial intelligence to speed up the reaction speed of ordinary people—for example, use artificial intelligence to monitor the surrounding situation, and immediately use psionic power when someone makes a surprise attack The network notifies everyone to speed up the shield raising speed of the shelter.

In general, there are many problems that need to be solved. And most importantly. ....

"Iss, I still need funds."

Adbert looked at Ian seriously: "The last batch of 2,000 talers is almost used up. Even if the core of the spiritual weapon is a miniaturized experimental version, the raw materials need to be more than 500 talers. Consider When it comes to experimental loss and trial and error... 5,500 talers are necessary.”

"Okay, but it will take a while."

Ian does not change his face on the surface, but in fact, he is already struggling in his heart. One hundred and fifty thousand and five hundred talers are actually not much. A house in the imperial capital costs three times this price. Not to mention, recently Xiahui collar

A total of nearly 7,000 talers were spent on large-scale infrastructure construction

But Ian is also a researcher himself, and he is very clear about the meaning of the 5,500 talers of Adalbert. ． This is only the first stage of experiment funding, and there are at least three or four more stages that need to continue to burn money before the results can be produced in the end!

Not to mention, there are other projects that are also independently funded.

Sure enough, next, Alberto honestly reported the development funds for technologies such as "artificial intelligence" and "artificial soul practicality"

Report, the total funding demand now exceeds 10,000 towers

It's over.

Looking at Adbert's expectant expression, how could Ian say that he has no money! I have no money! "

Words? He could only nod calmly: "Leave it all to me."

I have to say that Yadbert is a man who can surprise people, whether it is the progress of technology research and development or the intensity of funding.

"I cheated funding from the top and other people, and then gave funding to my own researchers.. This is

The daily life of the middle-class nobles in the empire? "

After leaving the alchemy laboratory, Ian shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, at least Adbert will not cheat the funds for a change

I, with so many projects, if I don't give me hundreds of thousands of talers, I won't do it in the first stage

It’s really not that Ian Lion opened his mouth-not to mention, the research funding of the empire must exceed several million Thaler for artificial intelligence alone. A lot of money.

If Ian hadn't prostituted the most expensive part of technology for nothing, it would have been impossible to even think about it with Xiahui's leadership!

It is imperative to attract investment.

Back to the lord's mansion, Ian thought about it, and decided to contact everyone he knew: "The Marquis of Barton, the Flint Group, the Platinum Iridium Workshop, the Second Prince, and the goblin...are interested in cooperating. Contact all of them.

"Although the mountain people are poor, they are still a big market. In this season, I believe there will be people who are willing to open up new markets." Now Xiahui Ling has more products besides the traditional "spiritual energy nourishing extract". A lot of competitive products.

Some time ago, Ian had used the channel of Platinum Iridium Workshop to submit the patents for the rechargeable rifle and the magnetic storm generator, and the Flint Group was very interested in these products.

The Marquis of Barton is very optimistic about the new type of agricultural planting that Ian wants to develop. Of course, it may be purely for investment in Ian himself, but for Ian, the hero who has completed all his tasks perfectly, He certainly will not be stingy with money.

The most important thing is that Ian has an army status.

If it doesn't work, he can still ask for a military salary - the meritorious troops who have stained the knights with a single blow, just need military expenses, can the Marquis of Barton not give it?

The goblin contacted through Hua An's side is mainly aimed at the goblin lair in the South China Sea Great Maze. As the maze master, Ian believes that he has a lot of things to talk to. Only the second prince, the content of the letter written by Ian is purely "money".

Without money, it is impossible to live forever, and alchemy research can't produce results. As long as the second prince still values ​​his status as the successor of Inaiga's alchemy skills, he, who is now in charge of the main front of the Western Region, will definitely find some excuses from

Of course, it must be a reasonable excuse to make some money yourself. This is the rule of the empire.

If there are connections and channels, there will definitely be investment, which will also accelerate the normalization of various industries in Xiahui City.

Just, probably not enough.

"There are only so many investment intentions in the empire."

The next day, when Ian convened the management meeting of the Xiahui leader, he pointed to the map and said to Scott Qingchao and Farr: "No matter how much we think about it, at least we have to get the alchemy in Xiakou District Once the park is built, it will be famous—but it’s different abroad. Flameland and the Empire are at war, but that doesn’t mean that other forces are also idle. The Alliance of Seven Cities and the Capital of Knowledge are right next to Flameland. Also just around the corner

"

Not to mention that Canaan Moore and our empire are allies in name. They have recently sold a lot of supplies and have quite cheap raw materials. This is the point. ""If you want to develop rapidly, you have to start with those multinational fleets in Port Harrison. "

Ian sets the tone for development, so naturally there will be no other opinions within the territory.

Time flows, and during the development period, there are also some chores.

When Isengarde, located in the Eastern Great Plains, received the "Molten Earth Snake Vertebrae" sent by Ian, he happily communicated with Ian across the province. /

The emperor's son Mi said that Huang Lu's material of the third energy level should not be so precious.

But when he knew that this was probably the first time Ellen received a gift from a "friend other than his mother and teacher", he couldn't help sighing.

Some people are not short of money, but short of friends.

Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite.

After chatting with Ian, Isengard also told Ian a piece of good news: Because Ian's previous armor design about the "Cyclops" attracted everyone's attention, and Ian's work in the Platinum Iridium Workshop Several alchemy papers published in the name of the laboratory have also been favored by a certain alchemist in the imperial capital. Now, no one in the Platinum Iridium Workshop dares to question Ian and his professionalism.

Up to now, Isengarde has completely secured his position as the director of the southern border, and the employees in the department are also very obedient and fully controlled by him. ...． This can basically be said to be Ian's credit. And Ian told Esengarde that this is what it should be, they are allies who help each other, and Esen developed an agreement,

He can also get more benefits in the future.

Aside from other things, the internal price alchemy substrate of the Platinum Iridium Workshop is the reason why Xiahuiling has not collapsed due to large-scale alchemy production in the recent period. Yisen plans to stay in the East Territory for a while, anyway, for a rich man like him, it doesn't matter where he conducts experiments.

Besides, Anfa also plans to return to Canaan Moor after visiting Siou's Dragon Lair.

This green-haired elf scholar has obtained all the information he wanted, or in other words, his body should have similar problems as Xiou, all suffering from dragon blood or other toxins.

The two sides are regarded as sick friends, so they got along so well.

It is really useful to know the degree of healing and purification of the holy mountain, and he has also obtained the secret art of healing the land of the Dragon God. For Anfa, he has gained a lot, whether it is from himself or from the Canaan Moore Dragon Worship

"Soon, you and I will see you again."

Before leaving, the elf bid farewell to Ian gracefully: "The place of goodbye may be Half Moon Lake - the cooperation and negotiation between Dragon Worship, Empire and Canaan Moore has entered the final stage, and it is estimated that the negotiation will start within this year. Exploration of the underground cavity of Banyue Lake."

"And after that, I will go back to Nanling again.

I am also looking forward to it. "

Ian has a good impression of Anfa. The other party is meticulous in dealing with people and is very smart. Many things can be understood without explaining.

Moreover, it is Anfa's channel that allows Xiahui to buy a large amount of grain, fruit and grain from Canaan Moor at a low price or even at a low price. Otherwise, how many mountain people will starve to death this winter, even Xiahui Huiling's grain reserves will be stretched.

Although Anfa himself is always self-deprecating and "this matter is not worth mentioning", in fact, this elf's help to the development of Xiahui Ling is no less than anyone else. According to Ian's news in Nauman City, Anfa's departure coincided with the departure of Master Oak.

It seems that Master Oak is nominally here to capture the members of the Nanling Dragon Worship Sect, but in fact, he is probably sent by the family behind Anfa to **** them. Friends leave, life goes on.

The war ended, and Xiahuiling entered a period of rapid development.

Many mountain tribes need to be rebuilt, food is scarce, and spring plowing after a few months also needs to be prepared in advance. This requires a lot of tools and materials, and Xiahui Ling can fully supply them.

Large quantities of tools, fertilizers, and processed masonry; boxes of sugar and cartloads of grain gathered from various places to Xiahui, and then various caravans set off to transport these goods from Xiahui into the depths of the Bison Mountains.

Mountain people don't have many Thalers, but they have other materials: ores, herbs, and monster materials. ... These are hard currencies.

Xiahui couldn't digest all these materials, so he resold them to the alchemy workshops around Nauman City, got cash, and continued infrastructure construction and business activities.

Of course, Ian is not simply a blood-sucking mountain people, he is also planning for the development of the mountain people.

To put it bluntly, the answer is very simple: give full play to the advantages of location and develop characteristic industries.

The interior of the Baisen Mountains is really not suitable for farming. Even though there are three intermountain basins and excellent farming areas such as riverside land, if you want the mountain people to be self-sufficient in food, you can only rely on new technologies. So, only minerals.

In this era, if a territory with a large number of uneducated low-end population wants to obtain development funds, it can only start by selling resources.

The mountain people happen to be sitting on a large number of mines in the Baisen Mountains, which has to be said to be a blessing.

However, they do not have modern mining technology, and it takes a lot of effort, so they may not be able to get a third of the profit.

This is a restriction of the empire in the past, but now, because of the activities of the Marquis of Barton, the restriction has been opened.

Ian will naturally not let this opportunity go.

As it happens, among the several dwarf brothers Roland brought from the Falling Star Hills, one is a professional in a related field. It has to be said that the best mining workers in the world are all dwarves.

Under the guidance of this professional, the mountain people quickly determined the relevant mining rules and regulations, and Xiahuiling was also working overtime to produce related mechanical equipment. ﹣For hundreds of years, this is probably the first time that mountain people can use alchemy tracks and mine carts to transport ore instead of using manpower to carry the ore out.

The end of January is coming soon.

During this period of time, Ian once again felt that Xiahui led the "barony" with less than one population and too few talents.

Except for Old Farr and Roland, Yisi did not find any other talents who can be used in the Xiahui collar, and Old Farr and Roland are not actually trained locally, they are all returned from other places to study by "

This is why the frontier nobles may not be able to develop any careers for several generations: the real cutting-edge technicians will be siphoned away by the imperial capital or a few other big cities, and there are no research conditions in the frontier areas. There is no financial support, and the academic atmosphere is even more messy.

If you stay in this kind of place, you will gradually lose touch with the forefront of the industry.

Unless the local aristocrats become professionals and, like Ian, take charge of all matters of reform and construction by themselves, decades may not be able to change some of the problems in this area. Yisi can only try to start a little more Make some great discoveries and inventions in your own name to attract people, otherwise there will be no solution. And if you want to cultivate it yourself, you need time—even he himself spent four or five years learning the entire alchemy inscription system.

The door population is easier to solve. ..... Whether it is to attract some labor force from the mountain people who want to work in the "Holy Land" and serve the messenger of the Dragon God, or to accept those refugees from the western border who are short of food due to the food disaster, it is a good way.

As long as the review and training are done well, they will soon be able to join the development of Xiahui Lingda, which is in full swing.

Of course, there are problems, but there are also gains.

In addition to dealing with various territorial matters, Ian, who is optimizing Lord of Steel, got two good news from Scott who came to report.

The first one: With the overtime hard work of a soil sublimator and a professional construction team, the skeleton of the first "hydroponic farm building" beside Xiahui Lake has been built and is waiting for his inspection After confirming that there is no problem with the key structure, the details can be optimized and the construction of other hydroponic farm buildings can be accelerated.

Second: Timothy, Viscount Dikas wandered around Nanling, and after waiting for several new news from the imperial capital, he came with the imperial capital's rewards, rewards and a whole support team. Along with him, there are several heads of different caravans,

They were all attracted by Ian's recent fame and wanted to investigate investment.
