The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

"Why do we have to come again..."

"No one gets tired, do they?"

They grumbled while complaining, their eyes fell on Baruk, and they couldn't help but roll their eyes.

"Look at this guy, like a goblin." A Hell Dwarf sneered, curling his lip.

"Drunkard Baruk... Does he really think he can earn the favor of Lord Demon King? Has this guy forgotten how he was thrown out in the first place?"

"Hahaha!"

Baruk ignored the laughter, continuing his work silently.

The dwarves saw he reacted like a block of wood and quickly lost interest, dismissively turning away from this unapproachable fellow.

Meanwhile, on the other side, deep within the Black Wind Castle's Magic Crystal Cannon Factory, the esteemed Lord Demon King, accompanied by the goblin factory manager, was inspecting the newly established workshops of the factory.

"...Lord Demon King, here is the new production line we have prepared according to your knowledge! Over there by the entrance is the riveting workshop, where we can complete the war vehicle frames as per your requirements. Further along is the power unit assembly workshop, designed for assembling mining steam engines!"

A short-statured, wrinkled-skinned goblin kept closely beside Luo Yan, his face filled with a humble and obsequious smile.

His servility was not just due to Luo Yan's status and his boldness in lambasting a group of officials at a hearing, but also because Luo Yan's vast knowledge continually exceeded his imagination.

Just like now, he had never heard of the concept of a tank in all his decades of life.

When Luo Yan first described this concept to him, the image in his mind was like this—

Several Hell beasts dragging a giant armor filled with scalding steam, rotating steel blades biting like fangs into the enemy infantry's phalanx, grinding the Empire's soldiers into mince.

And the goblin engineers under him imagined even more absurdly, with someone even describing it as a massive iron ball filled with steam, which exploded wherever it rolled, like a self-propelling Magic Crystal Bomb.

He laughed until he ran out of breath at the time.

How many goblins would it consume?

Doesn't training goblin artillerymen cost anything?

Time has to be spent!

Luo Yan looked at the workshop in front of him, nodded solemnly, and gave a fair evaluation.

"Not bad."

In the clean and tidy workshop sat a few metal frames, tracks hanging from beams interconnected with these hooks, resembling instruments of torture.

The facilities here are still quite rudimentary, but he had to admit it was already decent, at least everything necessary was present.

This planet had yet to conceive the concept of a tank, not to mention the idea of bringing a steam engine onto land, which only began along the coast of the Vortex Sea in recent years.

As for Hell...

Magic Power Technology application here is somewhat superior to the Empire, but in fields like metallurgy, it doesn't surpass the Empire by much... even though the Underworld possesses abundant metallic resources.

If he remembered correctly, during World War I on Earth, tanks were primarily produced by shipyards and railroad engine manufacturers, completing armor steel production and various parts for sending to assembly plants for riveting.

As for the power units, they were simply adapted from civil machinery, like the Daimler six-cylinder gasoline engine used in the Mark tank.

Contrarily, this world lacked all these things.

The players of Beifeng City were pondering over steam engines running on land, and had only just managed to produce a few prototypes... and those prototypes were already the confidence he boasted of at the hearing.

Crafting such a production line from scratch posed significant challenges.

However, fortunately, he had a group of life professional players familiar with game rules.

Their imagination teamed with the Mole People of Iron Teeth City was capable of building even a "Gundam," so a mere tank production line wouldn't stump them; backed by the base of Black Wind Castle, which was stronger than theirs.

Problems unsolvable by science could be tackled from magic and Netherworld Language.

In fact, these workshops were prepared based on suggestions from those players.

Aside from the war vehicle, he planned to have the railway leading from Black Wind Castle to nearby mining areas resolved with the production capacity of the Magic Crystal Cannon Factory.

As for rewards, he had something in mind for the players.

Advance into the deepest parts of Hell to experience completely new gameplay...

Over a week ago, this "explosive news" already stirred the game forum still basking in the "Magic Plants Frenzy" event into a buzz once again!
