Chapter 85 Technology Changes Destiny

Regarding the effect of using this bottle of blood, Su Wen specifically asked the system what degree of pain it would cause after drinking it, but the reply was that "information of items and characters can only be obtained through identification." In other words, this is equivalent to telling Su Wen that if it is an vague question in the identification, then even if you ask the system personally, it will be useless.

However, referring to Donald's intimidation at the beginning, Su Wen was at least a little mentally prepared.

He didn't think changing the blood in his body would be something that would be done in a short while. Since this process can be described as torture, it means that it may last for a long time.

But that's not the point.

What Su Wen needs most now is physical changes. On this continent, no matter how strong an ordinary person is, he cannot beat a knight who uses fighting spirit, and it is even more impossible to bring death as elegantly as an elemental mage. Although absolute power may not necessarily represent absolute power, without this absolute power, all power is actually a cloud.

For this reason, strengthening at the cost of pain is nothing.

The key is how much this bottle of blood can strengthen itself. If Donald's original intention is to change the blood in his body, strengthening his constitution is only a secondary effect, and maybe he can only achieve a slightly developed muscle, then choosing to fight for it under the pain will lead to a possibility of losing more than you can.

Su Wen is not a naughty man. What is the difference between using it indiscriminately after getting the benefits and committing death? At least he has to figure out what the Dragon King is and what its blood has, and then determine whether to drink this bottle of blood. Even if the system refuses to answer these questions on the grounds that there is no data in the database, there is still two months left to go. Su Wen can always find a library in a large city, which is a good place to obtain knowledge. Although it is almost impossible to find any secrets, if it is a monster with a name and a surname, there should not be no news.

What's more, it was still early to drink this bottle of blood by Donald's "plan", so there was nothing to hurry.

Therefore, when the bottle of blood was still early, Su Wen began to greet Liticia and set off for a long journey. In fact, even if it was dark and Donald was in charge, Su Wen might decide to leave. His character was broken or not, but his previous worries were not unnecessary. It would be no harm to stay away from him.

Perhaps because the business was in short supply, the hotel owner did not show too much dissatisfaction because of Su Wen's check-out. The fat middle-aged man unscrupulously took oil on the half-elf waiter and returned most of the rent to Su Wen. Liticia seemed very dissatisfied with the experience of her fellow tribe, but in the end she lowered her head and did not reveal it.

Next was the carriage that I had been used to during the journey, but when I put the Book of Elements on the carriage, Su Wen obviously felt the sinking of the carriage...

"Owner?"

Liticia looked at the book with some wonder.

"Why do I feel like this book is heavy? Where did you buy it?"

"It was given by a strange person, well... it's a bit heavy. It's hard for me to move it up." Su Wen ran the train all over and called Liticia to climb into the car, and then whipped the horse that he had just bought. The latter walked forward with great difficulty with the horse's hooves, and at the same time, the squeaking sound of the wheels that were unbearable.

This is not a bit heavy, it is equivalent to the weight of a dozen fat people pressing down, and the carriage is already very proud of not falling apart immediately!

As soon as this thought came up, Su Wen felt that the carriage suddenly stopped. It stopped immediately after walking, and no matter how hard the pony in front of him had to drag it forward, the entire car body was still motionless. Su Wen jumped out of the car with black thread on his head. When he looked down, he found that the originally sturdy iron framed rubber wheel had completely deformed. The radial wire used for load-bearing had been bent for a whole circle at some point...

Su Wen knew that this wheel was probably useless.

...

In the end, Suwen and Liticia embarked on a journey to the Ironforge Province.

Because this book of elements weighing one or two tons exists, Su Wen had to replace a double-horse carriage with a load-bearing capacity of two or three times larger than before, because he realized that the original miniature carriage with two people would not be able to take the book on the road even if it was repaired, because the wheels of the two carriages could not bear more than one ton of weight.

This new carriage is quite luxurious compared to the previous one. It not only has two pairs of sturdy weight-bearing wheels, but also has a replacement spare tire behind the carriage. The frame design of the body is simpler and more sturdy, with clear edges and corners, revealing the atmosphere of metal and machinery everywhere. The carriage has the Woking Guild trademark. Fortunately, perhaps because of worrying about user complaints, the carriage is not painted with an annoying green goblin, but a dirt-resistant and simple pure gray-black.

The most powerful thing is that this new carriage even has a small magic energy generator, which can provide much greater power than horses. According to the introduction of the "Woking 4S Chamber of Commerce Branch" that sells the carriage, this device can directly control the operation of the wheels, and can even reach a high speed of 40 kilometers per hour when the maximum power is turned on. However, because the magic energy is extremely cost-effective and cannot guarantee 100% stability, it can only be used temporarily as backup power.

How low is the cost-effectiveness? It costs nearly 2 gold coins to drive a kilometer. Moreover, due to safety considerations, the magic energy stored by the magic energy generator at one time does not exceed 3 costs, and can only support the carriage to automatically travel about 20 to 30 kilometers. After that, it will be sent back to the shop for maintenance and replenish energy.

So, there are not a lack of magic motorcycles on this continent, but even the nobles and tycoons are driving and feeling distressed, so almost everyone is using primitive tools such as horse carriages for transportation and long-distance travel. Of course, except for the magic flying boats that Su Wen saw in the Wasteland Town a few days ago, that kind of thing is the existence of two worlds and ordinary people.

At the cost, the carriage cost Su Wen nearly 4,000 gold coins, and the additional pack horse purchased was worth nearly 10 Liticias.

Technology changes fate, and this is true. Su Wen is not a person who likes to spend money randomly and never buys unnecessary things. However, compared with the carriages produced by the Woking Chamber of Commerce and other human chambers of commerce, he had to admit that the quality is indeed higher. At the same time, he also felt more and more that the price of buying Liticia was too cheap? Although 500 gold coins is indeed the income of many civilians for a year and a half, a carriage can be priced at more than 3,000 gold coins. Although a living person is a slave of a humble status, the price is a bit inappropriate... Well, let's just treat it as a price reduction promotion. It has been so long, so there is no need to pay attention to the details.

Su Wen calculated the remaining gold coins and found that there were about 15,000 left, which was relatively sufficient before entering St. Peter's College. But considering that there was still a 10,000 point deficit to be compensated, Su Wen felt that these gold coins could be saved as much as possible. This carriage produced by the Workkins Chamber of Commerce might be the last luxury in a few months.

As the carriage was slowly moving, Su Wen drove towards the border of the Iron Lu Province.

Due to the design of the goblin, the front seat of the carriage is wrapped around all sides, but the huge ring glass on three sides does not affect the driver's sight at all. There are locked trap doors on both sides of the cockpit, which look like miniature urban public carriages. In fact, Su Wen felt that the public carriages that were everywhere in the Doron Empire were probably the work of these goblins. The result of this design makes the carriage look more spacious and bright, and Su Wen doesn't have to drive in the harsh climate like the North Plateau city, which makes him very satisfied. Although he is not afraid of the cold, he is not interested in seeking abuse...

It was still early when we set off, but after a lot of twists and turns, when Su Wen actually arrived in front of the border with the speed of traffic, the sun was about to set to the horizon.

On the border of Erimo Town, the two traffic flows entering and leaving the Iron Lun Province were far apart, otherwise the scene would have to be even more chaotic. But no matter whether you enter or exit, you need to go through here, you need to go through two layers of inspection, one layer of human soldiers, and the other layer of goblins and alien soldiers from the Iron Lun Province. Their main inspection targets are exactly what Donald calls weapons and equipment, so they all have special tools, which are metal detectors invented by goblins. Passing through the checkpoint is like passing two metal doors. When passing through the door, the magic lights on the door will emit alarms from time to time, and then the soldiers will get on the car to search. Most of the merchant groups and tourists here are adapted to this strict and strange inspection, but there are also rare and strange local buns shouting.

When Su Wen's carriage passed the pass, although he was not too worried, the alarm still shone with the red magic light.

"parking!"

A human soldier in armor immediately shouted, his voice and expression full of inconsideration.

It is impossible for the carriage to be without metal, but the alarm is only occasionally issued in the traffic flow, which means that there must be doubtful items on the car, or the amount of metal has reached a certain value. Su Wen naturally cannot carry many metal weapons and armors, but since the alarm did sound, he guessed the possible reason in just half a second.

Two flint fire pistols!
