God Simulator

  Time is precious.

   Belica took out the mechanical pocket watch and took a look.

  This is a product of sophisticated and advanced goblin technology. Only top goblin engineers can polish every part and gear, so that the hands on the pocket watch can move on time and stably.

  Some people always say that goblin inventions are rough and simple, but it is precisely because of these cheap and usable things that more people can master them.

  Expensive and fine things are the prerogative of the imperial elite.

  The time is 17:31.

  When the sun goes down.

  The imperial delegation arrived outside the royal city of the resurrected kingdom.

   What came to greet them was an army led by skeleton knights. They didn't say a word, they killed silently.

  Beli observed that a huge vehicle was driving on the field, with thick smoke on the front of the vehicle, and rows of bone rollers behind the vehicle, plowing evenly across the ground.

   He squinted his eyes.

  Farm tools [Ken Ya] is also one of the goals this time.

  The imperial mission was solemnly received by the Resurrection Kingdom. Although the two sides had minor frictions in the past, the trade and exchanges between the two parties have never been interrupted.

  The only thing that changes is the status between the two.

  In the past, the Resurrection Kingdom was considered a barbaric and stupid land of the dead, the pastures and farms behind the empire, but when it was favored by God Yao, everything became very different.

  In just a hundred years, the Skeleton Kingdom, which was obedient to the empire in the past, has become an emerging civilization that is in the limelight.

  The Kingdom of Resurrection has trained a skeleton army that is not afraid of death. It sits on vast fields and grasslands, is self-sufficient internally, and exports a large amount of grain, leather, and meat to the outside world.

  Because the skeleton mercenaries are cheap, well-ordered, and have an excellent reputation, they have even begun to undertake some standing military defense tasks of vassal civilizations.

  The resurrected kingdom bypasses the empire and trades and communicates directly with other vassal civilizations.

  The empire protested and condemned many times, but the gods remained silent.

   That is the place shrouded by the power of God Yao, and the gods have no right to interfere.

  [Anvil Federation] After being integrated into the Resurrection Kingdom, the shortcomings of smelting and mining have been filled, and the rise of this young kingdom has become unstoppable.

  The empire fell into great turmoil.

  First of all, the mysterious explosion of [Fort Ironwood] and [Sweet City].

  This indirectly led to the death of Iron Duke, the holder of 【Ironwood Fort】.

  Later, the new duke was poisoned and the entire duchy was brought under the custody of the empire. The only heir, Felix Baron, went into exile in the Resurrected Kingdom, and the title of Iron Duke almost existed in name only.

   On the other side, the Earl of Spice, who was in control of [Sweet City], suffered a severe loss of vitality and lost his important sugar-making town, causing the Earl of Spice to lose his monopoly on sugar products, and his heir also died in the Sweet City incident. Today, the Earl of Spice has become a low-ranking force among the seven electors, and is in danger under the power of the emperor.

   This incident was called the "Castle Explosion", which directly caused the mutual distrust between the elector and the emperor, resulting in open and dark confrontation between each other, and the separatism of the town became more and more serious.

  Belica discussed with his friends at the time and said: "It's not a good thing anyway, and anyone's death is a good death."

  Friend said: "So what is the best situation?"

   "Of course it's the way it is now, the messier the better."

   Belica grinned: "I just want to have some fun. It would be such a wonderful thing to witness the collapse of an empire."

   Not long after, Belica was found by the apostles.

   "The empire wants to hire you to do things for them, so prepare yourself."

"my pleasure."

   Belica obeyed obediently.

  Although he is working for the empire, he is not from the empire, but from the 【Fashion World】.

  Fengxingjie is a place where you can temper your skills really well, and those who can hang out here are all elites from all walks of life. But no matter how good the technology is, it has to be tested in actual combat.

   Facing the foreign minister of the empire, Belica raised his head and put his chest on his shoulder, and said solemnly according to the imperial etiquette: "For the empire! Loyalty!"

   Then, he became a technical officer of the Imperial Invention Department.

  The technology of the Invention Department usually refers to goblin technology, construction engineering, smelting and casting, or mechanical design.

  Belica's specialty is stealing.

  He is a rising star in the world of pop stealing.

   Coming to Resurrection Kingdom, Belica's imperial mission is to steal two things.

  【Ken Ya】manufacturing technology, and the formula of potion 【Jiuxin Pill】.

  …

  The defense of the resurrected kingdom is like a fake in his own eyes. Belica collected the complete technology of [Kenya] through on-the-spot research, consultation, and interviews, and even made a small model and handed it over to the foreign minister.

  As for 【Jiuxin Pill】, this is not something that the Resurrection Kingdom can produce. The potions developed by the Yao people are only sent as finished products. The pharmaceutical process is very complicated, and the local conditions do not have the production conditions.

   Belica's work was so easily completed, which made him feel a little empty.

   The remaining time is to count the days to return to the empire, and then receive the reward.

   Belica likes goblin technology, especially high-end items.

  The mechanical pocket watch he holds, the silver jug ​​that can store three types of wine in layers, and the belt that can accommodate various gadgets are all high-end products made by goblin inventors.

  The reward this time is a clockwork locomotive. As long as the clockwork is turned on, he can ride that handsome motorcycle on the fields and roads.

  A few days later, Belica participated in an official meeting between the two countries.

  Nominally, he is the technical officer of the Invention Department, and he is listed as a staff officer.

   King Raymond also personally participated in the meeting.

The foreign minister of the empire kept his posture very low, and he said with a smile on his face: "...there are some bad voices and rumors saying that His Majesty the Emperor is in ill health, and there are also rumors that the 'Fortress Big Bang' was created by the empire Man-made accidents, these are all nonsense. His Majesty the Emperor hopes that the Resurrected Kingdom will continue to support the Empire and continue the normal trade between the two sides."

  The Skeleton Emperor sat at the top and said yes.

   "So, His Majesty the King supports His Majesty the Emperor?"

"of course."

   "Before in the imperial capital, there was a rumor..."

The minister pinched the parchment and prepared his words: "Now there is a powerful external force that is interfering with and influencing the electors, and even affecting the final direction of the empire's internal affairs. Your Majesty, what do you think of this? ?”

   "I have never heard of this."

   King Raymond shook his head.

  The minister said cautiously: "You mean, the resurrection kingdom should not have anything to do with this matter?"

  Raymond's dark eyes were facing the minister, and his voice sank: "You asked me if I support it, but I do, and I will tell you clearly."

   "You foreign ministers, don't think about making big news everywhere, saying that I am an external force, and I am interfering in the internal affairs of the empire, so that I can be criticized."

  The king raised his bone finger, shook it slightly, and pointed at the minister with an elder attitude: "I can say nothing, and then you will feel tacit and arrogant, and unhappy."

  "Election and order within the empire are carried out in accordance with the laws and regulations of the empire. Now the empire is an internal affair, and the Yao people never interfere in the internal affairs of other worlds and civilizations...You guys, don't hear that the wind is the rain."

  The minister wanted to say something several times, but was interrupted, and finally the king left the table directly.

   Seeing the embarrassment of the empire's diplomacy, Belica couldn't help but sigh,

   This huge empire has indeed lost its majesty.

   When returning, the Snake Empire brought back a skeleton army of 5,000 through diplomatic trade, which will be used to supplement the defense force of the imperial capital.

  The resurrected kingdom also sent a mission to visit the empire, and Belica was given a new mission.

   "You will be their guide and entourage."

  The Foreign Minister pointed to the two people in the distance and said: "Keep an eye on them, remember their every move, and then tell me."

   "No, this is different from what was agreed."

   Belica protests.

   "You have no right to refuse."

  The Foreign Minister said coldly: "Either do it, and then go to the Ministry of Invention to lead the car, or go to the mining area to dig coal."

   "..."

   Situations are stronger than people.

   Belica could only curse inwardly.

shameless!

  The empire has become unruly, and it is much more cruel than the liars and thieves in the popular world.

  …

  The two men Belica was following, the leader in the yellow coat was Yazdan, and the other was a long-eared rabbit man named Baiding.

  Both of them are from Shacheng, Yao State, and they are the collectors of 【Di Baoguan】.

  The work of the reporter is to visit everywhere, send the collected events back to the newspaper office, and then publish them in the form of newspapers so that more people can see them.

  Yazdan feels indifferent and inaccessible, like some kind of stone with a human shape.

  The rabbit man Bai Ding is friendly and talkative.

  They possess a special powder called [Xingnao Mint], which can easily eliminate language barriers.

   "Mr. Belica is a minority, but he can serve as a technical officer in the Ministry of Invention of the Empire. It's really amazing."

  Bai Ding said with a smile: "What kind of invention are you engaged in?"

   "The things I make are relatively unpopular, and I prefer door locks."

   Belica replied.

  As a seasoned thief, dealing with all kinds of door locks is a necessary basic skill.

   "I don't know which lock is safer? I have heard of iron locks and wooden locks, but I don't quite understand the difference."

   "It depends on the usage environment."

Belica gestured: "If it's a door lock, you can use wood, stone, or metal, as long as it prevents people from opening it. The point is to make people retreat. If you really want to break in desperately, unless The iron door of the stone room, otherwise it will be knocked open by external force."

   "If it's a lock for holding a container, or a lock for locking people or things, it needs to be strong and delicate. So far, reed locks are still the best to use."

   "This is also a technology with a long history. Through a few or a dozen reeds, a specific shape is formed in the iron lock or copper lock, and only a specific key can open it."

   "However, the lock is man-made. As long as you meet someone who understands the principle, it will always be opened. This tool focuses on short-term locked locks and design ideas."

   "Amazing! Mr. Belica is really a deep-studied inventor!"

  Bai Ding expressed admiration.

   Belica showed a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

  In the highly competitive fashion industry, this is just a basic course to get ahead.

   "In addition, I also have a little experience in knife grinding, small hook locks and iron and copper wire making. These tools are planted in a delicate..."

   "Really? The Yao people heard that the research on copper wire and iron wire is still at the bottleneck. Do you really know such a technology?"

   "Of course, although the copper-iron drawing technique is a bit complicated to operate, it is actually not difficult."

  …

  Both sides are communicating enthusiastically along the way.

  The interviewers have a wide range of knowledge, and Belica has also benefited a lot from it, and obtained a lot of information that he never had before.

  After arriving at the capital of the Shuangsnake Empire, Bai Ding suddenly said, "Mr. Belica, I can assure you that you are a talented scholar that the Yao people dream of. Would you like to become a scholar in the Kingdom of Yao or the Kingdom of Resurrection?"

   "..."

  This is outrageous.

  Belica sternly refused: "I am the technical officer of the Empire's Invention Department, and I serve the Empire."

  The main reason is that he is not a scholar, and his foundation is not clean. If he was found to have stolen the technology of the Yao people in the past, he would be finished.

   "Then would you like to be our special interviewer?"

  Bai Ding still refused to give up: "Becoming a reporter, you can open a column on the "Shacheng Mansion Newspaper", which is dedicated to telling about the situation on the empire side, and can also explain your non-confidential technology and experience in unlocking or related aspects."

   "Each issue of Di Bao is watched by 100,000 people. A top scholar like you really shouldn't be so unknown."

   "Isn't that good?"

   "Of course, we will pay you the highest standard for each issue of your article!"

  Baiding approached Yazdan and offered him an undeniable price.

  Belica immediately said: "Since you are so enthusiastic, then I will reluctantly write about it. If the writing is not good, please don't dislike it."

  Write an article, and the newspaper office will give you a box of heart-resisting pills.

  According to the market price of Jiuxin Pills in the empire, just selling one pill can be exchanged for a wind-up locomotive! There are 3 pieces in a box! It's all hard currency.

  Yao people are indeed rich and powerful, much better than the Snake Empire.

  Belica was in a complicated mood.

only.

  I, an elite in the theft industry, how did I become a columnist?
