But is the dwarf god really willing to give his divine power and knowledge to a ratman? Considering that it would take hundreds of years for them to prove whether a technology is allowed to be used, Eski felt that there was little hope.
Or are you trying to create a God of All Opportunities out of thin air? That kind of approach is quite interesting when you think about it.
However, it would be necessary to spread new religious traditions to many intelligent beings. Maybe we should start with Side 1 and cultivate a group of superstitious rat craftsmen?
As for the slogan, it’s not good to use the original version. Maybe it would be more interesting to make something a little weirder.
for example.
"SiegZeon!"
Esky stood up from his seat, clenched his right paw into a fist and raised it upwards, shouting, then sat down looking at the traces of death spreading on his chest.
No matter how you think about this world, there will be no Principality of Zeon. It can only be the entertainment of lonely people in this world. Do you miss the past when you are about to die?
Holding the blood stains with the paws pinching the fur on his chest, and looking at the blood stains in his hands, Esky said thank you to Nagash again, and then lay down on the main seat of the parliament.
If this kind of slogan could be used to connect the world where the Principality of Zeon is located to this world, Eski would be happier, at least, he would be able to see more familiar things.
"Okay, it's decided, let's use this slogan."
For example, the slogan is SiegZeon, and the priests are called chosen children or something like that.
Just as he was writing happily on the rat-skin paper, the guard knocked on the door and stopped what he was doing.
"Who is it again?"
The attendant Storm Rat did not reply. Behind the gate, the familiar Storm Rat with the elixir of life injection device stuck on the back of his neck had entered the council hall.
"From the Slippery Clan."
Esky turned over the rat-skin paper in a low voice, then stood up and looked down at the other party.
"Frisch, your intelligence network seems to be quite well-informed."
Looking at Eski's face covered with silver-white runes, Frisch was obviously stunned for a moment. He covered up his mistake with a smile, and the lord of the Slippery Clan casually pulled out a seat and sat down.
"You are much taller than the last time I saw you. Have you obtained any means of rapid growth?"
Eski looked down at the Storm Rat in front of him and just smiled without saying a word.
He could barely reach a height of 1.6 meters to over 1.9 meters. If that kind of medicine really existed, it might be snapped up by the Storm Rats, further widening the gap with the Clan Rats.
That way, he would never have to worry about funding.
Unfortunately, this effect is nothing more than Lilith's divine power.
"So, what are you doing here again?"
"I just heard that you developed a stronghold in the south. Maybe we can help you develop the underground river here."
"Underground river? I don't have any underground river here. If anything, there seems to be a small ditch leading to the sea."
Eski wondered.
When he first entered the city, he had already walked around the outside.
Only the east side belongs to a few clans who go fishing at sea, and there is a place that can barely be regarded as a river in the chasm of a deep valley. ….
"We can send exploration teams to explore nearby underground rivers, and then connect them through continuous projects. Finally, Side1 can be connected to the water network of the underground fortress in the north."
Frisch's attitude became even stranger, which made Esky lean down slightly and ask.
"Approximately how long will it take?"
"Based on our past experience, it's about thirty to fifty years."
"so long?"
"This is nothing. The Scurvy clan of sea transportation once spent nearly a hundred years building underground passages and underwater traps for an offshore port to avoid pointy-eared things."
"That's it."
The Rat People do have enough time and labor to carry out this kind of project, there is never a shortage of labor force, and the upper management has the ability to extend their lives.
However, if the Scurvy Clan is so perseverant, they will eventually be able to recover from the hacking of a ship, even though they have already argued so hard in the underground fortress.
"No problem, but is a small stronghold like mine worthy of this level of development?"
Deep magic vision opened in Eski's eyes, and his blue-violet eyes began to shine. Under the second vision that could not be seen, the soul tongue that imitated Slaanesh's spell also began to lick the breath of Frisch's soul.
"In any case, the youngest great engineering warlock of the Skry clan, the white-haired rat favored by the gods, any of your properties has sufficient development value."
Frisch said sincerely.
Even in the breath of the soul, Esky didn't taste anything unusual.
Is that so? Esky looked at Frisch in surprise, his lowered eyelids partially blocking the blue-purple light.
After being stunned for a short time, he thought about asking some questions again.
"After development, how many large ships can be used in the underground river? Who will bear the cost?"
"If you are willing to spend energy on maintenance, it can carry more than 600 horned rat people at most. Usually we only use small and medium-sized boats. In the rapids of underground rivers, it is easy for boats to be destroyed and rats to die. "
"If it is an ordinary level of development, the cost will be borne by the Slippery Clan itself, but if you want a wider waterway, you will have to pay our development and maintenance costs."
"If that's the case, I have no reason to refuse."
However, with such a small transportation capacity, it is impossible to talk about the container revolution.
Esky was about to say something but stopped himself, leaving only one sentence behind.
"Forget it, let's talk about it after we fix it."
"I won't send you away. The Skryre clan and the Mede clan still have many problems that I need to deal with."
When the other party's figure completely disappeared behind the closed black door, Esky leaned back on his chair, touching his chin and thinking.
If the container revolution cannot happen, the transportation capacity of railways will far exceed that of water transportation. In this case, maybe railways will be better.
He thought of the semi-finished product brought out from Skaven Mordor, the warpstone reactor that had been sitting in the factory building of the underground fortress, gathering dust.
If this thing can be used as the power unit of the dimensional train, the railway can be built, but if you want to complete this thing, you can imagine that it will also take many years. ….
It would be nice if there was a faster way.
A green light suddenly lit up in front of Eski's eyes, and he thought of another solution.
Pure dimensional stones will attract a small amount of magical energy from the Chaos Demon Realm, weakly tearing reality apart. According to this principle, a large piece of pure dimensional stone can be used to create a power source.
Although, this would be less efficient than a warpstone reactor.
Thinking of this, Eski took out a new piece of rat skin paper and began to design a new rune structure on the drawing.
Several destruction runes were first connected together by strange lines.
This is a unique technology belonging to engineering warlocks. It connects runes together to exert an almost magical effect. It is more radical and dangerous than the rune technology of dwarves.
Because of this, even if the mastery of runes is not as complete as that of dwarves, ratmen can possess more powerful weapons than dwarves.
Eski doesn't really believe that this method is original to the rat people. He has also studied the network channels of the ancient saints underground. There are a large number of such rune connection structures in the magic technology of the ancient saints.
A large number of technologies from Skulli belong to Skulli. Skulli originally stole them, and they will be investigated if they steal again. There is no reason for a completely original technology to suddenly appear.
The first batch of Skaven Engineer Warlocks may have simply imitated the technology of the Old Ones, and then slowly modified it to suit Skryre.
Continuously designing the rune structure and depicting the rune structure, under the process of experimental operation, time passes
Gotta go fast.
In the end, Eski put down his work because of the visit of Riel from the Med clan.
"Is the population census ready?"
Riel's eyes fell on Esky's right paw.
"Yes, but a powerful enemy has appeared and almost interfered with my work. Now the voters of the Horned Rat have surrounded that filthy monster."
"monster?"
What kind of monster could come looking for me? Eski already had a guess in his mind.
"Where?"
As Riel reported the accurate coordinates, green mist instantly covered him and Eski.
The teleportation teleported them to a shelf extending from a wooden support column next to the coordinates where Riel exploded.
Because it is too easy to fall down here and it is too narrow, there are no rats to build a nest here, so the view becomes quite good.
In a circle of Skaven filled with blood-colored mist, there was a deformed monster that looked a little like Skaven, and his face was immediately recognized by Esky.
"Clerk, Mobrier."
As Esky thought, only this monster would come to him.
"Hello, my master. I would rather you call me Bisis."
This time the scribe is less bloated than the last time, and has changed from the grotesque shape of a chaos egg to more like a humanoid. This probably also means that the scribe's abilities have been strengthened.
However, even so, haven't these ordinary clan rats been corrupted? It seems that this dual belief in the Horned Rat and Kain is indeed beneficial in preventing corruption.
"What are you doing now? Your new master turned you into a demon?"
The green light curtain opened, and the dimensional force field separated the demon and the ratman. Eski walked directly in front of the former scribe. ….
"I don't have time to waste with you. I have a lot of things to do. If you just come to say hello, you can leave now."
With that said, Eski returned to Riel and took out the crumpled rat-skin papers.
"That's all."
Eski frowned, stared at Riel who was still looking at his right paw, and couldn't help but speak.
The remaining tables are all blank, and all the data is on the first table.
Fortunately, at least there is some data to look at.
The clan rat population is 17,021, of which 1,141 are storm rats, and the rest are clan rats. The property is unknown, including one quarry, two logging sites, 82 gathering sites, 3 breeding pits, 40 female rats, 131 castrated rats in the breeding pits, and 39 slave rats.
"So poor?"
Was it because Eshiriga had scraped it in advance that this was the result?
Esky thought as he reached out to the Slaanesh monster over there.
"So, did your master ask you to bring me something?"
"You want something more?"
"No, thank you."
He immediately refused.
If you barely show desire in Slaanesh and are satisfied by Slaanesh, you will be captured by Slaanesh immediately.
"Maybe, what about the knowledge about the plague? Maybe, what about a sound body? All endless desires can be realized with the master."
Following Bisis's words, a gentle whisper appeared in Eski's ear, promising everything he wanted.
Let his soul have the desire to be captured.
Still, the Scribe doesn't have the demon's ability to overwhelm the senses of a mortal.
Esky once again thickened the dimensional force field in front of him. The thick chaotic energy almost completely blocked the opponent's body, stopping the Slaanesh demon's interference.
"Thank you. If you want to be corrupted, let the big devil come. Your abilities are not enough to corrupt me."
Esky said that the dimensional force field was pressing in the direction of Bisis from all directions, but it was different from the last time.
the difference is.
This time, there was unusual resistance around the clerk.
The faint pink-purple light blocked Eski's mana, which made Eski give up the idea of crushing the opponent with chaotic energy, and instead asked like a normal conversation.
"Although I don't know what conspiracy you had last time, why didn't I see the new corrupted Skaven appear?"
A smile appeared on the clerk's face and he took a few steps closer to Eski. .
"Skaven's body is unique. Normally, Skaven will only have physical mutations, not mental mutations."
"Just like pointy-eared things, usually only mental mutations occur and not physical ones."
"But you are a special case, so by your side, I can also be a special case."
"The Prince of Darkness loves you and cherishes you, but he doesn't necessarily want you."
"My master, you don't need to believe in that great god, I can also offer you blessings."
Bisis said with sincerity on his face that if it weren't for the tentacles that turned into several different whips, he would really have thought that he was some kind of devout saint.
"Is that what He thinks? In my mind, your words translate to, I am a rare collector's item, right?"
A smile also appeared on Eski's face, he got closer to the Slaanesh Demon and said.
"Your blessing? So, you are really a little devil. In this case, how about bringing me some devil engines next time? Or sign a contract with the Soul Forge and give me their technology."
"This will prove your loyalty, you copying book thing."
"Loyal?"
"Why don't you dare? Are you afraid that your soul will be captured by the soul furnace and become an eternal slave?"
"No, no, it's just that from your words, I hear the desire for demonic technology."
How can Tao survive when things perish?
