Chapter 372: Chapter 259: Serrated Sword, Alchemy Bomb; The Other Two Points in the Six Major Evaluation Systems
Therefore, the first being that came to Goblin Great Sage Norton’s mind was My God!
And at the thought that it was his beloved My God secretly helping him, allowing him to enter a state of a Burst of Inspiration...
...Goblin Great Sage Norton couldn’t help but marvel, ’Just how immense is the Divine Power of My God?!’
At this thought, Goblin Great Sage Norton instinctively looked out the window.
He piously recalled the image of My God and assumed a posture of gratitude and prayer.
"Great God of Nature above!"
"Thank you for this reward to your Devout Believers. All of this glory is, in truth, yours!"
"It was you who guided our Goblin Clan out of confusion and forged a new future for us!"
"..."
When the surrounding Goblin Engineers and other project leaders saw Goblin Great Sage Norton begin to pray,
they too began to pray, chanting in unison:
"Praise be to My God! Praise be to the God of Nature!"
"..."
Hearing the prayers of the other project leaders,
Goblin Great Sage Norton finally pulled his gaze back from the window, his tone growing solemn.
"Remember, the Goblin Clan is where it is today entirely thanks to the protection of My God!"
"In the hearts of the Goblin Clan, there can only be one sun, and that is the great God of Nature!"
Goblin Great Sage Norton pointed a finger at the Goblin Mecha several meters away.
His voice trembled with excitement as he said,
"This mecha is the fruit of the combined efforts of our Goblin Clan and the Elf Clan."
"It not only represents the most advanced research achievement of the Magical Civilization, but it also represents a gift to us from My God!"
"We must use achievements like this to repay My God, who shelters us!"
"Repay this divine grace!"
"For the God of Nature!"
The members of the Goblin Clan beside him roared in unison, their voices filled with piety and passion!
After the cheering died down,
Goblin Great Sage Norton turned the topic back to the First Generation Goblin Mecha.
"Although our joint efforts with the Elf Clan solved the problem of a pilot controlling the mecha,"
"this First Generation Mecha,"
"still has room for improvement in my eyes!"
Goblin Great Sage Norton walked over to the First Generation Mecha, tapped its left arm, and said:
"Considering the Goblin Mecha was initially developed for combat, it doesn’t need a full set of humanoid arms."
"The spiral slicer on the left arm is fast, but it’s too thin."
"It’s highly likely that the slicer will be ruined after cutting a hard object just a few times."
Hearing the issue raised by Goblin Great Sage Norton, the goblin in charge of the project quickly replied:
"Great Sage, we actually did consider that problem."
"That’s why we used Magic Metal for the slicer on the left arm..."
Before the project leader could finish, Goblin Great Sage Norton cut him off and berated him soundly.
"Using a special Magic Metal?"
"Have you been spending too much time with that muscle-headed Dwarf Clan? Did you forget about the cost?"
Goblin Great Sage Norton was fuming.
"Magic Metal is so rare in the Divine Realm and so expensive! How can you justify using it for something like this?"
"Couldn’t you just replace the rotating spiral slicer with a vibrating Serrated Sword?"
"That way, you not only save on the high cost of Magic Metal, but you can also forge the Serrated Sword from cheap, ordinary steel."
"And then, even if the Serrated Sword gets damaged, it won’t be a painful loss!"
Apparently, while Goblin Great Sage Norton had inherited the characteristic wisdom of an intelligent goblin, he had also inherited the Goblin Clan’s characteristic stinginess.
The project leader, having been berated by the Great Sage, quickly jotted down this brilliant idea.
He hadn’t been able to think of a solution before, but now that the Goblin Great Sage had pointed it out,
he was confident that when it came to saving money, he could outdo the master himself!
Seeing the look of sudden enlightenment on his subordinate’s face, Goblin Great Sage Norton was about to offer a few words of caution,
but he held his tongue.
The Creations of the Goblin Clan were cheap, but they came with the downside of being cheap: they broke easily.
However, he considered that his god would send the Elf Clan and the Dwarf Clan to inspect the Goblin Clan’s Creations anyway,
so Goblin Great Sage Norton swallowed the words he had been about to say.
After the inspection of the first project, the First Generation Mecha, was complete,
it was time for the second project, which had also been conceived during Goblin Great Sage Norton’s Burst of Inspiration.
The goblin in charge of the second project hurried forward to report its status to Goblin Great Sage Norton.
"Great Sage, our team has also made a breakthrough on our project!"
Goblin Great Sage Norton’s face filled with anticipation, and he gestured for the goblin to continue.
"We’ve constructed thirty kilometers of railway track in the research center’s practical application zone."
"After preliminary testing, the train, powered by a Magical Power Furnace at its core, ran successfully!"
"The train we developed, powered by the Magical Power Furnace, has no operational problems whatsoever."
"Furthermore, its average speed reached 200 km/h!"
"That’s even a little faster than the normal flight speed of the Elf Griffin Cavalry Corps."
"The Magical Power Furnace installed in the train can convert anything thrown into it—be it Magic Crystals or any miscellaneous items containing Magic Power—into the purest Magic Energy to keep it running!"
