The protagonist of today's ribbon-cutting ceremony is a steam airship with a slightly weaker capacity than a steamship. Because unlike a steamship, most of the journey down the White River involves sailing in the water. Only after taking off and landing will it land. A steam airship that flies in the sky the entire time must achieve the maximum balance between load and range. Therefore, the hull size of the airship is also slightly smaller than that of the spaceship. Of course, it can also be easily distinguished from the naming of "boat" and "ship".
This new airship, which was entirely built with the upgraded mechanical skills of Clockwork City, looks similar in outline to the original Dwemer airship, but upon closer inspection, it is very different. Also using the "Small Divine Light Shard Crystal Furnace" as the core of magic energy, the energy efficiency ratio of the clockwork airship is far higher than that of the Dwemer airship. This means that the same core can carry heavier weight and fly farther. The protective effect of the magic shield is also excellent. Even the ship's mechanics are more responsive, understanding and effective than before. In one sentence, a huge improvement.
"What's her name?" The housekeeper looked up at the new airship, which was slowly inflating its airbags and tightening its slings one by one, and said softly in the lord's ear.
"Named..." The lord suddenly made a decision and said, "Otherwise, let them choose their own names."
Saying that, the clockwork goddess Anufanasi opened a beautiful portal. Behind the door, a group of heavily armored female warriors looking around hurriedly saluted: "Good day, my lord."
"Are they also the guards of the Bingxi Mine?" The housekeeper saw the orc's iconic fangs.
"No. They are 'blood warriors' from Ragashpur." The Lord introduced the housekeeper one by one: "Zayra, the Storm Hammer, Magda, the Flying Wheel Flash Axe, and the Impact Shield The sword Giorgia, the tempered anvil Garakh, and the champion ranger Ugor.”
In the Lord's old adventures, the orc Lagashpur Stronghold was attacked by the giant tribe, and the tribe's treasure "Shagrol's War Hammer" was also taken away by the giants. Malachith cursed the Horde for their weakness, and the orcs asked him how to gain forgiveness. So Chief Yamas accepted the test to eliminate the tribe of giants who had desecrated the shrine of Malachath. As a result, he was smashed to pieces by a giant hammer. On the contrary, Wu Chen, who came with him and was still an adventurer, completed the mission. Malachis turned Shagrol's war hammer into Warren's Hammer, gave it to Wu Chen, a blood relative of the tribe, and appointed Gulalzob, who was also very capable, as the new chief.
Fortunately, the danger has been averted. Coupled with the Lord Lord's adventure in "Return to Skyrim", the trade with the orc stronghold has become increasingly prosperous. The strength of the Rageshpur Fort also increased rapidly. I heard that the lord occupied an orichalcum mine that was so precious that it was probably the only one in Skyrim Province, so the new chief Guralzob, who was also very weak, hurriedly sent blood warriors to help the tribe's blood relatives guard the orichalcum mine. Mining and trading.
So the lord gave the lead ship of the new steam airship to the five blood-related samurai.
Storm Hammer Zaira, Flywheel Flash Axe Magda, Impact Shield Sword Georgia, the three of them should be blood relatives of the tribe who have recently joined Stronghold. The Tempered Anvil Galaka and the Champion Ranger Ugor are old acquaintances of the Lord.
As a master forger, she once told the lord about her forging: "Only true orcs know how to properly blend orichalcum, and the ancient tradition is passed down from generation to generation. The secret of forging is also passed down. Every piece I forge Every blade is a tribute to Malacath. Every rivet, every piece of armor crafted is for him or her."
Champion Ranger Ugor was the first female orc warrior Wu Chen met when he first wandered from Rift City to Rageshpur Stronghold. At that time, she was fighting a bloody battle with the giants who attacked the stronghold. Seeing that the shield and half of the breastplate were smashed by the giant's hammer. The lord's eyes were full of white flowers, and his blood suddenly boiled. He drew his sword and rushed over...
The two looked at each other and smiled. They all seemed to think of that unforgettable first meeting that seemed like not long ago or a long time ago.
"I'm really happy for you to see this lively territory, Lord Blood." Champion Ranger Ugor greeted first.
"Welcome to join you, my family." The Lord's enthusiasm infected everyone.
"I will use my body, my blade, my courage, my loyalty, and everything I have to serve you." Champion Ranger Ugor and the Blood Warrior said in unison. Being called family is definitely a great kindness to these orcs who live in the sky and stay in the strong castle.
"Then let's pick a name first, shall we?" The Lord smiled and pointed to the fully inflated wind-up airship parked quietly on the platform in the center of the large workshop.
"Fire Anvil." Champion Ranger Ugor blurted out.
"What a great name!" This is the common sentiment of the five blood-related warriors.
"Okay." The Lord nodded happily.
A new type of clockwork steam airship: "The Fire Anvil".
"The Fire Anvil: Champion Ranger Ugor, Flying Wheel Magda, Storm Hammer Zaira, Impact Shield Sword Georgia, Tempered Anvil Galaka".
According to the route envisioned by the lord, the Fire Anvil is mainly responsible for the Valtoume Trading Post - Bile Canyon Mine - Lost Valley Fortress - Cradle Stone Tower - Sunshine Manor Fortress - Night Calling Temple - Cliffside High Castle - Crisp Shan Barrier, etc. Trade in the Western Dependencies. This is a landscape of rolling mountains surrounding a large lake. It is far more convenient to use an airship to cross the towering ridges and take the shortest straight line than to go around the valley.
"Master, there is one less captain of the Fire Anvil." The housekeeper smiled.
"The captain wants to ask Fanasi." The lord's mental murmur became more and more powerful.
The Hase Kiri staff, which was not used in a hurry, was handed over by the Lord to the Clockwork Goddess Anufanahi and brought back to the Clockwork City for careful study. Clockwork Goddess Anufanasi has obviously made a big gain.
"Master, it's what you are thinking. This staff of the same name as the great necromancer Mage Hase Kiri is a 'soul gatherer'." Clockwork Goddess Anufanasi smiled and said this great necromancer. The biggest secret hidden in the mage's staff of the same name: "The souls of past owners, and even those killed by the staff, are all gathered in the 'Hasugutong skull' at the head of the staff."
"No wonder Ibarra and Lushak Gra-Ragdam want to use the Hasetia staff to please the Lord of Thoughts so that they can complete the task assigned to them by the 'First Son' to destroy the last altar." The lord has already thought of it. The female necromancer on the island of the two kings' cemetery wants to sacrifice the souls of all the necromancers gathered in "Hasugu Kiri's skull", including Hase Kiri's own soul, to the Lord of Thought.
"Yes, Master. And I think the purpose of the Necromancer Archmaster Hase Kiri's doing this is actually to imitate the thought master of the Soul Cairn, who used to accumulate the 'souls' of the Necromancer to achieve violence. The road to heaven. It is precisely because of this that the necromancers of the Gilgar family, the long-term holders of the staff, are very powerful throughout the generations."
"Martin Septim smashed the Talisman of Kings, transformed into Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time, and drove away Merunes Dagon in one fell swoop. This shows the power of the souls of kings. So he doesn't want to become the Lord of Thoughts after death. A necromancer of many souls, Hase Kiri, began his own journey of uniting souls." This is another newly derived and important branch line.
The housekeeper still asked softly: "What should I do, my master?"
