The Witcher: My backyard leads to London

…

Ricardo would not remain aloof from the great war changes that would follow.

He was first transported to the modern world.

Then, he directly let his forces penetrate into the upper echelons of the mortal world and control the political power of several modern countries.

Ricardo then transferred three steel factories and a uranium mine directly from the modern world to the Land of the Stars.

At this time, Dr. Tang Qiu of the Honeysel Castle Group had organized a temporary industrial development committee in the empire controlled by the Constellation Church in the Pan-Star Land.

Ricardo temporarily let Dr. Tang Qiu temporarily coordinate and command his few modern wizard subordinates in the modern world.

These wizard subordinates mainly come from the Great Library Committee.

This committee is spread across many countries around the world, and Ricardo has been the leader of the organization for some time, sharing many of the interests of trade between the two worlds.

There have been many subordinates who are extremely loyal to him within this organization.

"Tang Qiu, do you still remember that the Honeysel Castle Group started a small plane expedition from the secret passage in Ireland? The Druid witchcraft in my hand is a follow-up to my own expedition."

"Now, I am equivalent to taking you, my trusted subordinates, on a plane expedition to this plane that I am completely responsible for."

"The form of the expedition is different. This plane is shrouded in evil rules. I also need to study the rules of the gods in this world. Therefore, we cannot directly engage in crude ones, but we must build on the foundation of steampunk civilization in this world. Go up, learn from modern industrial concepts and technology, and accelerate the development of this civilization! Use the developed warfare methods to conquer this plane called the Land of Stars!"

Ricardo took Dr. Tang Qiu to visit the three steel factories and a uranium mine he had transferred.

"Now, we will start by absorbing the steampunk technology of this world, build up the steel industry, and then gradually improve the modern organization and industrial chain..."

"finally…"

"I hope that before this war is over, I can see the dawn of the nuclear industry!"

"…even…"

"If possible, I would like to see a mushroom cloud rising over the enemy's battlefield!"

Ricardo patted Dr. Tang Qiu on the shoulder.

This Chinese wizard doctor who was born at the bottom of the modern world was already an absolutely loyal supporter of Ricardo.

The first communication crystal ball that Ricardo saw, and the castrated crystal ball that later became popular in the wizarding world, were all from the other party's hands.

Loyalty, technology and familiarity.

Ricardo hoped that the other party would become the official head of the industrial committee in the future.

"It is an honor for me to participate in leading a plane expedition!"

Dr. Tang Qiu's eyes were filled with enthusiasm.

The country where the Provisional Industrial Commission is now located, called the Holy Titan Empire, is located on the border of the Land of Stars near the exit of the Knights Continent.

It is the country closest to the West Coast Knight Empire in the Land of Stars.

Ricardo looked in the direction of the Knights Empire on the west coast.

Some time ago, he did not respond immediately to the fact that the royal family of the West Coast Knight Empire wanted to arrest the Binghu family and the Jinlu family.

After the forces in the land of stars have been unified and the modern war industry has been successfully developed, the first step is to take revenge on the royal family of the West Bank Knight Empire!

…

The crystal wall film in the sky of the land of stars.

At this time, Norris's divine kingdom has moved to the crystal wall membrane and gradually merged with the crystal wall membrane.

Beneath the sky where the Kingdom of God and the Land of Stars meet is an empire called Saint Reese.

Saint Reese Empire.

The former Temple of the Lord of War next to the Royal Palace.

At this time, the incarnation of Norris descended into the temple.

Appears on the highest level of the temple.

In the temple, several high-level star-stealing knights from the Evil Thieves Order were already waiting there in advance.

"Has the alliance been established?"

The incarnation of Norris asked directly.

After receiving a positive answer, he looked out the window of the upper level of the temple.

It's as if you can see the landscape of the land of stars at a glance.

"good!"

"This war is also an opportunity to unify all forces into one! The major empires controlled by the church, the Night Watch Clan, the Storm Clan, the Exorcism Hall, the Holy See..."

"Let all major forces send out their first armies as soon as possible! Start the first war!"

"Let the False God and the Constellation Church see what war belongs to the God of War!"

…

More than a month later, the army has not yet been assembled, but the new year is ushering in the land of stars.

This year's New Year's Day.

It was also named as the first day of the first year of the War of Gods by the Land of Stars.

The various armies that rushed to the Saint Reese Empire united together and launched an attack on the neighboring Saint Titan Empire.

The war is officially burning!

The war has officially begun!

Norris wants to quickly unite all the forces he has penetrated through war and completely absorb the church of the God of War system;

But Ricardo was establishing a temporary industrial committee and gradually using subordinate forces from both sides of the world to build a huge modern system.

…

The end of the first year of the war.

Just like the early days of the modern world war, the war machines of the divine forces on both sides have just begun to activate. In the past year, the intensity of the war has not reached its peak.

This year's results.

Ricardo was in the Holy Titan Empire.

The Interim Industrial Development Commission has been officially renamed the Industrial Commission.

The original steam technology and industrial sectors of the Holy Titan Empire were absorbed into it.

The Industrial Committee has initially absorbed steam technology and established the first full industrial chain of the steel industry in a modern style.

The steel technology in this world also has a foundation. When Ricardo traveled from Linxue Province to the Gray Mist Towers area, there were many remnants of factories in the car and boat towns he passed.

The inside is also in the style of the steel industry.

However, Ricardo discovered that the wizarding world was extremely short of oil, which meant that when climbing the technology tree, we could not follow the old path of the modern world.

Even so, Ricardo illuminated electric technology.

And he personally led the construction of the first musket factory, the first ammonia synthesis plant, and a plant for producing hydrogen using the water-gas method.

Because explosives generally contain nitrogen, for practical purposes in firearms and ammunition, Ricardo used electricity technology to directly electrolyze potassium perchlorate to make gunpowder.

In terms of output, the mass production of potassium perchlorate gunpowder in this steam industry is definitely much more efficient than the accumulation of nitrate in manure.

that's all.

One year later, Ricardo directly increased the intensity of the war from the cold weapon era to the early stage of the firepower era.

Originally, the Holy Titan Empire was already under considerable pressure when facing Norris's war coalition.

But after the first batch of musketry troops was trained, the war suddenly stabilized.

At this stage, the Musketeers are still just a special force similar to the Magic Troops.

But in terms of cost, it is obviously much cheaper than the magic army.

Even ordinary people can be trained to quickly become a musketeer.

On the battlefield a few weeks later.

Norris's war alliance released a war magical behemoth.

This giant beast happened to face Ricardo's first musketeers.

The soldiers in the army had just reloaded with full-power rifle bullets. The bullet hit the body of the giant beast that was still a carbon-based life form. It exploded directly in its body, creating a huge cavity and shattering its internal muscles.

There is no treaty banning dum bombs in this world, and Ricardo's troops still use more powerful rifle full-power bullets.

This kind of bullet is one of the most powerful weapons in the history of the modern world that eradicated cold weapon warfare.

The troops of the War Alliance were shot down when faced with bullets, and their lives were lost directly.

…

The end of the second year of the war.

Ricardo had already allowed the empire's capital area to be controlled by several Constellation Churches in the Land of Stars, completely advancing from the agricultural era to the industrial era.

And let these capital areas have a siphon effect on the population of the empire to which they belong.

Naturally, the larger the industrial population, the better.

Ricardo also established an alliance management system among multiple empires, called the Modern Commune, which meant promoting modernization.

The working population entering modern communes is divided into three levels: inner, middle and outer.

The inner layer is the core heavy industry steelmaking and chemical industry population. The current population is only tens of thousands. The core is the wizard apprentices brought by Ricardo from Ice Lake and received modern wizard teaching materials, plus a group of Honeysel Castles. Young students who are loyal to themselves. Then based on this group of cores, Ricardo not only hired a large number of scientists from the modern world and persuaded these scientists to join the organization of which he was the leader, but also selected all ordinary people who had studied as wizards for several years from among his subordinates. A young man from a well-off family.

These young people were given wealth and their loyalty was greatly increased, and then the core circle population used the magic of enlightenment knowledge to conduct preliminary engineering and scientific training on these young people. Then use work practice as training to quickly train these people to enter the steelmaking and chemical industries.

The middle-level industries are supporting industries for the lower-level industries, mainly serving the basic necessities of life, such as textile workers, house construction workers, bridge and road workers, etc. There are not only male workers in them, but Ricardo also recruited a large number of female labor force.

The most advanced industrial product built by these workers was the railway.

The wizarding world has a history of using steam trains, and there are already supporting steam railway workers. It is not difficult to hire and convert believers.

The workers in the outer layer are raw material mining, such as tree felling, ore mining, etc.

…

The end of the third year of the war.

When three years have passed.

The forces under Ricardo had witnessed the power of industry.

Once they have seen the charm of industry, any motivated organization will pursue it at all costs.

Especially with Ricardo's personal involvement, the world's originator of self-propelled heavy firepower was produced.

That is the prototype of the tank.

Although in the history of the wizarding world there have been magical siege machines that could easily reach tens of meters, the self-propelled firepower under the industrialized system is different.

There is no need to go through the training of a wizard, even ordinary people can quickly develop into an industry of operating tanks.

As for the first batch of tanks, Ricardo's tanks were equipped with heavy guns of more than 350 mm.

Now Ricardo can appropriate that statement from the modern world to this world:

The distance of the cannon is the distance within which the truth of the modern commune can reach.

As the first base for Ricardo's development, the Holy Titan Empire has been fully armed.

Facing the coalition forces of the St. Reese Empire, they began to pay lower and lower prices in exchange for greater war casualties!

"boom!"

Although the first batch of tanks used low-speed heavy single warheads, based on hundreds of kilograms of steel artillery shells traveling at a speed of 180 meters per second, any city wall of the Saint Reese Empire is already vulnerable!

The shells rolled in, and within a few tenths of a second, the fuses in the originally sunken city walls or castles burned out, and the crumbling castles swelled up.

Then, the flickering light of flames burst out from between the gaps between the bricks and tiles of the city wall.

As the shock wave pushed the wall tiles, it completely shattered them!

Then along the shock wave of the city wall, the energy spread rapidly, and all the gaps in the wall exploded into thick fog in the explosion.

A city wall collapsed!

The self-propelled troops with heavy firepower directly gave the coalition forces in the Land of Stars a little shock from another world.

to this stage.

Ricardo found that his totems in the divine path of war sequence had a strong resonance effect at this time.

[Blood Tomb of War], [Monster Hunter], [Magic Knight], [Servant of Purgatory], [King of Molten Steel], [Great Fabricator], [King of Electromagnetism], [Precision Observer]...

The "New World Law" that Ricardo had practiced before finally began to show its true power.

In Ricardo's divine fire, the godhead carrying the prototype of the priesthood of war vibrates.

The War Priesthood, following the Ice and Snow Priesthood, was completely formed.

At this time, Ricardo also had a deeper understanding of the New World Law.

Now.

As long as he is willing to invest energy, he can spread the professions in the divine path among his followers.

Among his followers, there will be many more great manufacturers, electromagnetic experts, precision observers, etc....

…

The fourth year of the war.

In the new wizard apprentice school established three years ago by the Holy Titan Empire, Ricardo discovered that many young believers had awakened talents such as [Weak Molten Steel], [Weak Electromagnetism], and [Weak Precision].

Ricardo discovered that if you guide and arrange the ceremony in advance.

Young people of appropriate age can even be allowed to go to the temple in advance to participate in the ceremony and awaken the talents specified by Ricardo.

"Theresa."

Ricardo called his female pope to the capital of the Holy Titan Empire.

Over the years, Teresa led Ricardo's purgatory servants and built many ice, snow and war temples under her command.

It turns out that the temples of the previous Lord of War in the empire, as well as a small number of Norris's own temples, were captured by Ricardo and transformed into his own temples.

Ricardo conveyed his thoughts to Teresa.

"What kind of designation should be made?"

Teresa listened respectfully, and then asked, "What kind of talents should the young believers awaken?"

“The mining, preparation and packaging of industrial processes for those materials needed for the ceremony must begin immediately.”

"Until the cost comes down, we will only provide free rituals to teenagers with good piety."

"If the boy has a good wizard talent, it depends on which talent he is interested in and you can choose it yourself."

"If his talent is average but his personality is hard-working, then let him choose a talent that enhances precision perception."

Ricardo replied.

"Precision perception?"

Theresa was a little confused.

"Well, Teresa, in a modern commune, even ordinary people with mediocre wizard talents will have the possibility of surpassing wizard geniuses through our system in the future. And precision is the key."
