Different World Development Manual Chapter 68: Black Iron City
I started from Yili Province for more than a month, almost two months.
The avenue leading to the Dark Iron City has appeared in front of the Pangu Strategic Base, the Panshan Avenue built on the hillside, the huge steel gate, and several statues of unknown Dark Iron dwarves.
is not the **** of the Dark Iron Dwarf, but the hero of the Dark Iron Dwarf.
Pangu Base dug a big hole not far from the Black Iron City, and the whole base was slowly located in the big hole on the ground.
An Rui and Ran Xu, as well as a group of accompanying diplomats, followed Thunder and some dark iron dwarves on the Panshan steam train. Under the scream of the old driver of the dark-skinned dwarf train at the front, the real steam locomotive began to "puff puff puff. "Smoked black smoke, and drove these guests towards the Black Iron City on the mountainside.
Ran Xu pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, thinking that this mountain steam train was very interesting.
The locomotive is twice as large as the earth locomotive, and the section behind it is a steel cart, everything is exposed, and there is almost no function of sheltering the wind and snow.
Fortunately, everyone is wearing a snow camouflage military jacket, which is quite warm.
Ran Xu gently pushed An Rui: "This is the dwarf subway you are talking about?"
An Rui looked at the Dark Iron City on the mountainside and said: "Where is this mountain train, the dwarf subway is in the mountain."
"Oh."
Ran Xu is quite interested in dwarf stickers. After all, during the Battle of Jiangzhou, An Rui mentioned that dwarves have subway tools.
God knows what a steam train in the subway is like, and can’t travel back to the Victorian era. Ran Xu, who has never seen a real steam subway, is really curious about this kind of thing, it can be considered as "historical" information.
In the sky, not only gyrocopters are escorting, but there are also dwarf tanks on the ground.
Those steam war machines that did not exist have been moved out by the dwarves.
It seems that the big guys in the Mechanical Technology Association raised their heads proudly to the Chinese warrior Dark Iron Dwarf’s impressive achievements in machinery, showing off to this group of Chinese people who also have a certain degree of mechanical attainment. With.
"Fog grass."
Ran Xu looked at the steel robot next to him and exclaimed: "Xiao'an, are these black iron dwarves crazy? Even the Gundam was made?"
An Rui has brought his team to the Dark Iron Kingdom and also arrived at the Dark Iron City. An Rui is very fond of the Dark Iron Kingdom, a force that coexists with magic, steam, and technology. However, the Dark Iron Kingdom compares well. Withdrawn.
is not only that they are reluctant to communicate with outsiders, but also because they are surrounded by monsters, so they can only play at home by themselves.
The Gundam in Ran Xu’s mouth is a 7-meter-tall logging robot. The whole body is made of wood, and the key joints are mechanically connected.
The robot is very big, but even so, it can only carry 1 Dark Iron Dwarf.
The body of the robot is 4 meters in size. The boiler occupies three quarters of the body, and the other quarter is reserved for the driver’s cockpit and mechanical transmission.
The body of the robot is made of wood. Below it is a mechanical transmission made of steel. Below the transmission, there are two legs made of wood.
On the left and right sides of the robot, there are also steel mechanical transmission and wooden arms.
But at the front of their arms are two mechanical devices, an iron claw and a saw.
The saw is responsible for logging, and the iron claw is responsible for grabbing the logs and putting them on the transport.
The whole robot stopped in place, even if it didn't move, it was still exhaling black smoke and shaking up and down.
An Rui introduced: "The logging machine, used by the dwarves to cut wood, is not a fighting thing. It looks very mighty, but in fact it is not high in combat effectiveness.
I feel that since these guys all invented the tank, why didn't they just separate the saw and the iron claws and put them on the tank site to form a logging truck and a truck? "
In An Rui's view, although these dwarves have begun to take the road of machinery, they are still not very clever Azi.
Take the boiler as an example. They just used it for the power of tanks, helicopters, and robots. They didn't consider using it for steel forging.
Perhaps for the dwarves, who are born to strike iron, the romantic thing of iron strikes cannot be replaced by steam power at all.
The iron that is punched out by a steam engine is not for the soul, and only the iron that is punched out by hand is fragrant.
This may be the feelings of the dwarf, or it may be the stubbornness of the dwarf.
caused them to not even have a standard for mechanical production, which also led to frequent problems with their hand-produced machines.
So in the Dark Iron Kingdom, you can often see oily Dark Iron Dwarf repairmen with big wrenches on their backs running around, either repairing things, or on the way to repair things.
Due to the northern scenery of the Black Iron Plateau, thousands of miles of snow and frost, the Black Iron Dwarves, in order to keep warm, the cities mostly rely on volcanoes and are built underground.
Dark Iron City is like this. The dwarves dug an empty volcano from the outside and built such a huge city on the high ground next to the lava inside the volcano.
This volcano was also named Black Iron Volcano by the dwarf.
Along the road on the hillside, everyone drove into the Dark Iron City. The huge and cold steel gate almost caught up with the portal of Hualu City.
On both sides of the gate are heavily armed dark iron dwarves tactics. They are dressed in heavy armor. They are either holding a huge shield or a sledgehammer, or holding a musket, or a bow and arrow.
At the gate of the city, there are many sniper gun positions of the Dark Iron Dwarves to prevent Warcraft from attacking the city.
As the Panshan train drove into the city gate, it stopped on the platform in the city, and a hot breath rushed over his face. Ran Xu unbuttoned his army coat, flashed his cheeks, and exhaled: "It’s a bit hot. ."
An Rui nodded and introduced: “The dwarves’ way to keep the city out of the cold is either to build the city in a volcano, or to build it underground, or to build a huge castle on the ice and snow with a huge boiler. Then the logging machines continuously transported the trees and used them as fire materials for heating the entire castle."
Ran Xu was taken aback for a moment: "Isn't it burning coal?"
An Rui sighed and shook his head: "It's not burning coal, burning wood.
Although I told them about coal when I visited the Dark Iron Kingdom a few years ago, but they couldn’t find it and it was useless, I really didn’t know. "
After entering the Dark Iron City, there are "ding, ding, ding," iron strikes everywhere, and the sound of "creaking" gears everywhere.
The whole city was reddened by lava, and the heat made people feel warm and comfortable.
"I'm going to build a city in a volcano. I haven't seen any scenes, but this is really the first time I have seen you."
Rao is a well-informed person like Ran Xu, and he had to sigh after entering the Dark Iron City.
An Rui smiled and said: "It was the same when I first came."
However, in Ran Xu's eyes, the dwarves have become unusual. On the earth, I have never heard of anyone who builds cities in volcanoes and uses lava for heating.
For Ran Xu, the Dark Iron City can be regarded as an architectural miracle. God knows how these Dark Iron dwarves built it.
Even if China’s infrastructure madness is such a thing, I have to admire a handful of black iron dwarves~ IndoMTL.com~ An Rui continued: "Although dwarves are not very diligent in bathing, dwarves like Soak in artificial hot springs, as well as a bath house.
They usually build a huge bathhouse above the lava in the volcanic city, move in the snow from outside the city, pour it in this bathhouse, and then use the temperature of the lava below to melt it.
and then form an artificial hot spring or bathhouse with just the right temperature.
Dwarves like hot springs and baths.
Hot Spring is a characteristic of the Black Iron Kingdom. We must find the opportunity to experience it when we arrive here. "
Soon the convoy led by the dwarves came to the door of a palace. An Rui and Ran Xu also knew that they should have arrived at the destination, pushed the car door, and got out of the car.
At this time, a black iron dwarf with a gray beard opened his arms and greeted him. When he saw An Rui, he hugged a bear: "Aha, Lord Brave, it's really you."
The dwarf is full of muscles and full of energy. This bear hug makes Anrui almost out of breath.
But looking down, this black iron dwarf with a gray beard is the president of the Mechanical Technology Association, his strong friend before visiting the Dark Iron Kingdom.
"Magnus!
Long time no see!
ahem...Quickly, I didn't let go of me, I'm going to be strangled by you! "
Magnus laughed: "Brave, you are still so weak.
Go, let me go in. Your Majesty the King has been waiting for you for a long time, and I really want to see what they call the Chinese people who are good at machinery.
Of course, including us old guys. "
