Assembly line work? Grandpa, the patriarch, muttered doubtfully.
Nodding, I explained: "Yes, it is an assembly line operation. The so-called assembly line is to disassemble the entire process of the claw. Each person is only responsible for forging one component, and then a specialized person is responsible for assembling it. In this way, By concentrating on forging one component, the yield rate will increase, the speed will also increase, and of course... the quality of the entire weapon will also be greatly improved in the end!"
After listening to my explanation, the patriarch looked at me excitedly and said, "Huh? It's very interesting. Please explain it carefully. If it is feasible, then I will arrange for everyone to do assembly line operations."
I nodded and continued: "For example, the claw has a total of 10 parts, and our dwarves have 100 blacksmiths, then... separate the ten parts, and have ten fixed people responsible for forging each, and then choose A few girls are responsible for assembling and debugging, it’s that simple.”
The patriarch looked at me doubtfully and said puzzledly: "In this way, the efficiency will go up? Will the speed go up? Will the quality go up?"
Smiling slightly, I said confidently: "If you can't go up, you will know as soon as you try it. Trust me, you will never go wrong..."
The patriarch thought for a while and nodded: "Well... well, since you decide to try it, I will naturally make arrangements. After all... you are the patron saint of the dwarves now! You can't go wrong."
I touched my head in embarrassment. It’s neither wrong for me to deny it nor for me not to deny it. I could only hesitate and hesitate...
After confirming the delivery time, I suddenly remembered the magic crystal cannon I had just seen, so I looked at the patriarch grandfather curiously and said: "By the way, grandfather patriarch, what's going on with that magic crystal cannon? Can you talk to me about it?" Let’s talk about it.”
The patriarch nodded slightly and said: "Speaking of which, the magic crystal cannon is nothing. The forging process is not complicated. The key point is to convert the energy in the crystal into external magical energy. As for the subsequent launch, , that’s all very superficial and simple.”
After listening to the words of the patriarch, I nodded in agreement. In fact, the guns on the earth are the same. Whether they are guns or cannons, they are not complicated. The more difficult ones are actually bullets and cannonballs. Then This is the most critical point. Even if a cannonball is fired without a cannon, it is very powerful.
Looking at Grandpa Patriarch curiously, I asked, "Grandpa Patriarch, can you teach me the structure of converting the crystals of the magic crystal cannon into energy?"
Nodding happily, Grandpa Patriarch said without hesitation: "Of course, if you want to learn, Grandpa Patriarch can teach you anything he knows."
After speaking, the patriarch turned back to the house, took out an ancient scroll, and opened it gently in front of me.
Pointing to the complex design on the picture, the patriarch began to explain, where is the crystal stone placement port, where is the crystal energy release device, where is the energy gathering device, and where is...
Listening to the patriarch's explanation, my eyes gradually brightened. In fact... this is just a device similar to an engine. Using this device, the energy stored in the crystal can be completely released, and then gathered into a ball. Launched.
This set of devices is actually just a not too complicated magic circle, and the energy it releases is not very stable. It is unlikely to be used for civilian purposes, but it is perfect for combat.
Looking at the design drawing in front of me, I licked my lips nervously, looked at the patriarch grandfather sincerely and said: "Grandpa patriarch, can you show me this drawing? I think... he can continue to improve it, you see... "
Grandpa, the patriarch, rolled up the scroll without hesitation, threw it to me and said, "Grandpa's things will not all be yours in the future. If I kick my legs, can I still carry it with me?"
With a smile, I took the scroll unceremoniously and quickly put it in my arms. I knew exactly what this scroll meant. With this magic engine, there are so many things I can do!
At first, a steam engine ushered in a steam age on the earth, and later the motor ushered in an electrical age. But for me now, with this magic engine, I can bring a magic to this magical world. era! A powerful mechanical age!
My mind was running fast, and suddenly, an idea flashed in my mind, and I remembered the cannons and guns on the earth. In fact... if you shrink the cannon, it becomes a gun, and if you make the bullet larger, it becomes a cannonball!
The magic crystal cannon is definitely unusable, but... what about the magic crystal gun? Can't the magic crystal gun be used too? If I do a better job of keeping secrets secret, then... the combat level of the troops will go up several levels!
Thinking of this, my breathing quickened, and I swallowed nervously. I looked at the patriarch and said, "Grandpa, you said... If we shrink the magic crystal cannon hundreds of times, and then combine it with the weapons of the wolf clan, If we do it together, what will the effect be?”
kindness
After listening to my words, the patriarch looked at me in surprise for a long time... The patriarch said in admiration: "I didn't expect you to think of this so quickly, but... your idea is unrealistic. These devices cannot be underestimated." For example, if you draw a magic circle that transforms energy, you can’t draw it the size of a button, then you can’t draw it at all!”
I smiled confidently and nodded: "Indeed, it is easy to enlarge small things, but shrinking big things contains too much scientific and technological knowledge."
After a pause, I continued: "But I know a truth. As long as you set a goal and work hard towards it, then... you will definitely reach your goal one day!"
After listening to my words, the patriarch of the clan frowned and said unsupportively: "The dwarves have been thinking about this issue for thousands of years, but... the problems here are really too big."
After a pause, the patriarch continued: "For example, take the magic circle for energy release and conversion. Layers are stacked on top of each other. There are a total of six layers of magic circle. How to shrink them?"
Nodding slightly, I know... Those magic circles are too dense. It is very rare for human beings to be able to shrink them to the size of a basin. This is a bit like the computers of the old era on earth. Due to hundreds of connections, Ten thousand, so... The size of a computer is simply unimaginable.
However, integrated circuits have solved this problem. A small integrated board has replaced the tons of wires before. Its magic is simply amazing.
The most representative one is the early 1990s. At that time... Big brother was like a brick, ridiculously big. However, in the later stages of development, after integrated circuits entered a new realm, an integrated circuit board the size of a matchbox could be completely The problem was solved. As far as I know, a circuit board as thick as a matchstick actually has six layers of circuits laid one on top of another, replacing the electrical wiring that could fit a small car in the past.
Thinking of this, I suddenly became excited. If the principles of integrated circuits can be transferred over and used in the printing of magic arrays, then... the problem of shrinking the magic crystal cannon can definitely be realized.
For the next week, I didn't go anywhere. I stayed at home and devoted myself wholeheartedly to the research on the integrated magic circuit...
First, I chose the hardest meteorite as the mold, and then... with the help of a magnifying glass and the method of turning stillness into movement, I carved out the magic circle that was reduced hundreds of times. A week later, the magic engine needed Six magic circles were carved out by me one by one.
Next, we chose silver, which has the most active magical properties, as the material for laying the lines. After brushing a metal sheet the size of a matchbox with silver water, we placed the engraved magic array mold on it and poured it into it. The strong water suddenly...except for the parts pressed by the carved lines, all other places were corroded.
We gently picked up the mold, and suddenly... a small magic array that was so detailed that it was unrecognizable to the naked eye appeared in front of us!
