Chapter 9 Sure enough, technology is the primary productive force
Scorpion crossbow, Scorpion crossbow...
So Egil clicked on the army interface. The army interface was further divided into long-range and melee battles.
remote.
The remote range is divided into five categories: bow, crossbow, javelin, large machinery, special, and five categories.
Hey? Special flying props...well, flying axes, stone throwing ropes, slingshots, etc. Some old things, but why are there no muskets?
"That, you will have to wait until you trigger a special time." The system elves explained.
"...I will do this, either, two sulfonates or three charcoal." Egil said in a silence.
"But it's not among the system, so it cannot be integrated with the system. The system will not create a gunpowder workshop, nor will it give you gunpowder. And if you entrust an outsider, are you really relieved?" the system elf asked.
"...I'm really worried." Egil had to give up. But he probably guessed in his heart what the so-called hidden mission had to do with - what's going on in the East in this era? Although it should be a confrontation between Liao and Song dynasties in history. But who can tell the truth about what the fucking world will be like?
Really.
So, although the scorpion crossbow also has the word "cross" in its classification, it should be mechanical.
Well... the ancient leveraged catapult, hey, this one can be made!
Ancient crossbow, eh? This one can be made too!
Siege scale cart...a level 4 machinery?
Bed crossbow...third-level machinery.
Found, the scorpion crossbow, also a level 4 technology.
...The requirements are a little higher.
"By the way, how should we study these things?"
"A research institute can be studied later."
"Eh? Research Institute?"
So Egil decisively pulled aside his own building list... Finally, he found a scientific research institute in an inconspicuous corner.
Research Institute: The legendary dark medieval times, theology ruled everything, so if you want to study science and technology, you are decisive and unsuccessful. You have to recite the name of heresy. Hey? Do you really want to build this thing? Then choose a secret place and don’t let people find it-otherwise...hehehehehe.
...
The last one is very lewd?
Egil rolled his eyes. Then he said weakly in his heart: "Jian."
“Built there?”
"The basement is in the basement under my Lord's residence. After digging a hole, the big stone blocks it, just do it."
"Hey. You're pretty good at choosing places. But this requires more money."
"It's up to you."
"Total one thousand five hundred gold coins, thank you."
...
After doing this, Egil has no penny left.
Afterwards, when I clicked on the technology interface, I saw the scorpion crossbow with translucent words: You can study it, four words. However, the prerequisite was one hundred gold. Egil couldn't help but shout: It's a scam!
"By the way... technology or something can be bought with a small coupon, right?"
"This is right, but the coupons required are also amazing. After all, technology is the primary productivity."
But at this time, Egil could not wait at all: "No matter how much you need, report the number!"
"Do you know that you are like a sucker for a nouveau riche now?" The system elves complained.
"You have to care?"
"Well, if you really die too early, I will be very troubled." The system elf said: "After all, the good show has just begun."
"Do you think I'm acting? Is it fun to watch?"
"It's almost awesome."
...
Faced with such a shameless system elves, Egil basically had nothing to say. He curled his lips and then quietly waited for the system elves to quote.
"Each primary technology is 1,000 points, each intermediate technology is 10,000 points. Each advanced technology is 100,000, each super technology is 1 million, and each ultimate technology is 10 million. More than."
“…Inflation is really great.”
"That's right."
"...Okay, is the scorpion crossbow an intermediate technology? Is it a 10,000-bit coupon? In other words, I have to spend nearly three hours on my life to buy it, right?"
"That's right."
“…it’s too expensive.”
"If you think it's expensive, don't buy it."
"Oh, then I won't buy it."
“…”
"A little coupon takes one second of life - and a little coupon can be exchanged for one gold coin. One hundred gold coins can study the scorpion crossbow - this can save 9,900 coupons. Is there any?!"
"Oh, you've finally gotten it."
"So system vulnerabilities and other things should be used decisively."
So Egil decisively clicked the button to start research.
"By the way, the research institute has not been built yet."
...
In this way, Egil suddenly found that two "people" and the system elves were complaining about each other. The barracks were about to arrive. At this moment, Egil suddenly found several Viking warriors coming out of the barracks, one of whom was pulling a rope, and a pretty woman tied to the back of the rope.
Of course, it's just pretty good.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Egil jumped off the horse, then strode over and patted the Viking warriors on the shoulders, and asked in a familiar way.
"Oh, leader, this girl claims to be the daughter of the leader of a bad tribe who was destroyed. She said she had some secrets to tell you, and she was like the truth, so she moved her over.
"By the way, system elves. Is this a task I triggered?"
"Do you think the system is omnipotent? This guy is from the natives. Although he was conquered by you, he was included in the system system. But he still has a certain ability to control himself."
"I see."
Egil nodded, and then said, "Go back to the barracks. The war is just about to be won. I want to stay with you for a few days."
As he said the magnificent words, Egil didn't even blink. He completely ignored that he had no place to live, so he had to move into the military camp.
Dingdong.
At this moment, a system prompt sound came from Egil's ear.
You have obtained a new attribute: wise and sequel.
Cheerful tongue: You have definitely practiced this, you gay?! The support of the people +5% can complement motivation and morale, can complement the intermediate affinity level, and shameless attribute +1.
"What is that shameless attribute?" While bragging and spanking with the Viking warriors, he asked the system elves like this.
"Sa, who knows?" The system elves spread their hands.
"Can you agree to my request?"
“What request?”
"Show your true self and let me beat you up."
"Tsk, maybe my real body is a creature as powerful as a dragon."
"Then I'll beat you up, too."
In this way, when we arrived at the military camp, the so-called military camp of the Nordic Vikings was actually just a bunch of traditional long houses, where they were eating, sitting and sleeping, just like a large dormitory. Around the four long houses, a small square was surrounded by soldiers, where they usually gathered and trained. There were targets, large stone locks for training, and weapons racks with axes. Sometimes, the army would do some confrontational training and array defense training under the leadership of the captain. In this way, the combat effectiveness could be maintained - and even increased experience value after a period of time.
It seems that there are five or six long house structures in each barracks in total, and the entire town has a barracks of similar sizes in the four directions of southeast, west and north. Biyad has a total of nearly two thousand soldiers, and they are organized to protect the town.
When Egil walked into the barracks, the barracks located on the south were undergoing confrontation training. Two teams of Viking soldiers and a team of Viking soldiers were divided into two teams, led by the captains who were elected, and fought fiercely with wooden axes for practice and small shields for practice. Next to it, a team of crossbow-carrying militias lined up in the shooting range to conduct shooting training one by one - but, perhaps because the Viking soldiers were too noisy, the interfered crossbow-carrying militias would always turn their heads from time to time and watch the fights of these guys.
Seeing his war leader coming, the sharp-eyed Viking warrior immediately recognized him. He was about to go up and say hello - but forgot that he was still on the battlefield, and was chopped down by an axe by the Viking warrior who had reacted a little slower. The unlucky man had to pat the soil on his body, and was treated as a dead person according to the regulations. He ran to the side and shouted to cheer him on.
When Egil saw that this was not possible, he said, "Okay, okay, don't worry about me, please continue, I will drink with you all at noon!" The combination of intermediate affinity and skillful ability made these Viking men feel very happy. After shouting like this, the two teams continued to fight.
Later, under the arrangement of a Viking Captain, Virgil and the Knights of the Guards first solved the place where they stayed and scattered to several long houses with no one to live in beds - of course, this is actually meaningless. The Viking Warriors have some rules on the battlefield, so they can be casually scattered under the battlefield. Just sleep, where isn't it? Just find a bed casually - there's not enough bed? Then it depends on who is slow, and it's better to go to the horse shed and go with the animals.
As soon as the incident happened, the guard knights also began their own training. Their training became even more complicated, such as equestrian, swordsmanship, maces, flails, rifles, teamwork... Such a military camp could hardly be used.
In this way, in the afternoon, even if the training of the day was completed, the Viking soldiers laughed loudly, drank the ale in the glass, stuffed with barbecue made of meat offered by the hunters, as well as bread and smoked sausages, singing, dancing, competing for strength, fighting... All the long houses were in trouble. The guard knights said that they were all Vikings, so they quickly integrated into this environment and celebrated with their compatriots. However, Egil, an outsider, adapted quickly - just like a real Viking, wandering around in the long houses, adjusting the atmosphere. The witty words during the meal made the soldiers laugh and admire them.
However, when the soldiers were making enough noise and were about to go to bed, several Viking warriors mysteriously pulled Egil to the door of an independent storage room, opened the door and pushed him in, then closed the door, and then left with a smile.
Chapter completed!
