Chapter 14 Development and expansion of Taoism 1
The wheel of time is turning steadily. In March of the sixth year of the Black Gate Calendar, the Western Wilderness in the southern part of the continent has begun to enter the spring season. Of course, for areas without cold winters, this season is still a bit difficult to distinguish.
It can be determined by the flowers blooming in the fields.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no rapeseed crop in the surrounding area, so you can't experience the sea of bright yellow flowers all over the mountains and plains. I don't know if there is such a crop on the Pandaren side that is blocked by the fog. Maybe you can try to use radar to explore that continent.
But there is no time now, Zhang Weidao needs to take the steps of the Northern Expedition against the Orcs first.
The rapid changes in the western wilderness have left the goblin merchants who often come and go dumbfounded.
The mine, which was originally being expanded, has been largely completed at this moment. The five ring-shaped structures with a height of tens of meters and one layer make the mountain look like terraces. However, these terraces are used to build cities, Zhang Weidao thinks it should
It's called Ticheng.
Of course this is impossible, educated spellcasters would not let him name it so casually.
Since all the casters objected, Zhang Weidao could only think hard for a long time. It was really difficult for him to come up with a name. Finally, Zhang Weidao became impatient. He glanced at the shining golden mountaintop and couldn't help blurting out.
"How about calling it Jinding City!"
The casters' eyes lit up and they looked at the golden-roofed hall on the top of the mountain. This name was indeed very appropriate! They immediately agreed to use the name Jinding, so they all approved it before Zhang Weidao could change his mind. These guys were afraid
Zhang Weidao regretted it.
In fact, Zhang Weidao really had the idea of going back on his word. After all, he was copying the palace landscapes on those famous mountains. But people in this world don't know this anyway, so it doesn't matter if they just settle on it. They don't know about Wudang Golden Summit or Emei Jinding.
Damn, I know they don’t know, so plagiarism is okay.
In this way, the city transformed from the mine was named Jinding. At this time, houses were being built in the circles of Jinding City. The houses were all in a more obvious Chinese style, with white walls.
Black tiles, cornices and raised corners, row after row.
This was thanks to Wu Ping taking Gris' merchant ship to the South China Sea and recruiting a large number of people from the South China Sea Islands to work there, including many professional architects. The style of houses they built was very suitable to Zhang Weidao's taste, and now all the houses are built by them
Guide construction.
The temple complex on the top of the mountain has also been partially completed. The main hall of the Sanqing Hall has been completed first, and the statues of the Sanqing gods have also been installed. The roof of the temple uses the highest specifications, that is, the entire roof is covered with copper and gold plating.
This is the origin of the Golden Summit.
As these temple complexes begin to be built, Zhang Weidao will no longer keep changing places, which means he can truly take root. He has moved several times from Elwynn Forest to Westfall, and it is impossible to move again this time.
.
The port to the west of Golden Summit City has almost been excavated. At this time, the kobolds and jackals have switched to digging in the mines, leaving only the murlocs inside for final repairs. This port only needs to be excavated to release sea water.
Come in, but this will not happen until the two behemoths built in the port are completed.
This port has been used as a shipyard by the way, and two super battleships more than 260 meters long and more than 30 meters wide are under construction in an intensive and orderly manner.
The wooden hull of the battleship is now covered with iron armor. Since the production of steel is not yet enough to satisfy the appetite of these two steel monsters, the only way is to use the shaman to modify the iron mallet for the barbarians to fuse the steel and wood.
Come together to save materials.
If it were made entirely of steel, the displacement of 40,000 tons would be 40,000 tons of steel!
Zhang Weidao's original intention of building ships was to transport part of his troops to the north to participate in the war. It was impossible to waste so much steel.
Although thousands of tons of steel can be smelted every day using magma pools, it is impossible to use all the production for several months to build ships. The underground space of Jinding City requires a large amount of steel to be transformed, and just the magma path leading to the casting area
A lot of steel has been spent on the track of the pool, as well as several drilling platforms built in the shallow water outside Long Beach.
Forget about the small cost of building weapons and equipment. It costs a lot for engineers and technicians to build mechanical puppets, and they cannot stop, otherwise so much farmland will not be able to be planted.
The iron armor pieces that are being covered on the battleships were only started after the demand for steel eased. After the iron armor pieces are assembled, the caster fuses them. The effect is not ordinary, and the steel joints are as smooth as a mirror.
This battleship can dispatch hundreds or even thousands of spellcasters, and only Zhang Weidao can do it. Kul Tiras, the most powerful country on the sea, will ask the Tide Sage to bless their country's battleship after it is completed.
to reduce the impact of wind and waves.
Building these two battleships is the current main task. The casters are all working hard to surround and dispose of a piece of armor. The speed of forging cannot keep up with their fusion speed.
The main reason why the spell casters are so enthusiastic about their work is to be able to practice in the holy land created by Zhang Weidao. It is a treasure land that can increase the speed of mana accumulation several times!
The Holy Land of Cultivation is actually an enhanced version of the Soul Gathering Rune. You need to use gems to inlay the pattern of the Soul Gathering Rune that is at least one meter square, and then Zhang Weidao instills the Qi to activate it. Since he developed this new usage, he no longer has to waste precious world time.
With the leaves of the tree, you can draw more golden armor talismans to protect your life.
This is the most scarce exchange resource. Many assassins have accumulated a lot of points just waiting to exchange for this life-saving talisman.
Zhang Weidao controlled many mines, and there was really no shortage of gems. He simply made the soul-gathering talisman into a talisman array version. He just threw the soul-summoning flag inside and ignored it. There were enough spirits in the soul-summoning flag.
The soul power is wandering around all day long, and the shaman is always coming to check.
Fortunately, the shamans are not evil people like warlocks. They are just curious about how the soul body can exist for a long time. Then they observe carefully and let the soul body leave after satisfying their curiosity.
The drilling platform built in the shallow sea has begun to produce oil. Every day, fishmen take the oil to the port, and then the goblin technicians will send people to take it back to refine and make energy blocks. Now in terms of engineering, we can produce and sell it ourselves. Of course.
Trade with goblins is still indispensable, and there are many areas that still need to fill the gaps through trade. After all, the main focus of the Western Wilderness is food and heavy industry.
Zhang Weidao walked down from the top of the mountain. The upper and lower rings are connected by a relatively gentle slope. Although it is said to be a slope, the slope is actually very small. Even if you fall to the ground, you will not roll down all the way, just like
The ramps up and down the viaduct are the same.
Considering safety, the connecting slopes of each ring are staggered to prevent the enemy from attacking all the way to the top. However, at Zhang Weidao's request, the slopes are not staggered too far. There is no need to blindly pursue the defensive effect and attack.
It's the best defense.
When I stand on the port and watch the giant ship being built, I just feel it is very spectacular. But when I come to the bottom of the port, it is completely different. The hull of the ship, which is as high as a twenty-story building, gives people the feeling of being overwhelmed by a mountain.
Spellcasters are just like little bugs. These skilled and brave mages and shamans don't care about the height at all, and they work as leisurely as the construction workers on the earth.
However, the construction workers are protected by safety ropes and are very brave. It is impossible for these spell casters to fall to death unless they are knocked unconscious first and then thrown down.
Just now, the jackal mage blessed me with the lightness technique. He dug his claws into the scaffolding and climbed to the upper floor to work. His agile movements were similar to those of an assassin. The difference between different races and the same profession is really big.
