Chapter 692: Chapter 228 Reuel Bible Defects (Part 2)
“`
The topic of discussion on everyone’s lips as they walked the streets was often related to chanical equipnt.
“The chanical equipnt from Miller Comrce Guild is really impressive,” a passerby remarked. “The old spray gun was good enough to kill a late cardholder-stage monster, but now my ‘Thunder Cannon R3 Spray Gun’ can blast a first-tier Catastrophe to death! Hahaha… Now even as a card disciple, I can go to more advanced Alternate Dinsion.”
“Indeed, the quality is truly remarkable! I never imagined we ordinary hunters could get our hands on military chanical equipnt that once only the federal nobility could afford.”
“Exactly, it’s not only useful but also affordable. I heard that Old Cliff’s ‘Storm Squad’ has completely switched to a chanical Legion, and they’re now sweeping all corners of the Old Continent…”
“Tsk tsk… When chanical equipnt becos a legion, that’s when the real terror in combat power is. With this equipnt, even a child could possess the combat power of a card disciple, or even a formal card master.”
“Yeah. Tis are changing. chanics are bound to beco the hottest professional sequence… I have to say, the Old Continent really is a great place!”
“…”
Leonard Churchill listened selectively to a few remarks and roughly understood what was happening.
A few steps later, the best-positioned tavern on Downing Street, the Old Gun Tavern, displayed various chanical equipnt samples in its storefront window.
Complete sets of chanical Battle Armor, along with individual equipnt and components, exuded a strong sense of advanced technology.
Leonard Churchill also paused to take a look.
The materials and workmanship were all first-rate.
Checking the factory naplate, he saw that they were all products of the Lord’s Manor, the Miller Family.
The crowd gathered around the window showed great interest in these chanical samples, pointing and discussing them.
“Hey, why would the Miller Family sell such good stuff instead of using it for their own legions?” soone in the crowd asked.
“If the Miller Family doesn’t sell, others will. It’s not just the Miller Family who have found chanical relics on the Old Continent. And with various blueprints continuously coming out, it’s a smart move to mass produce and occupy the market now. Despite these chanical equipnt being sold cheap, just look around—who doesn’t have a few pieces on them? I reckon that chanical industry might now be the most profitable business in the whole Federation…”
“What we’re buying now, is this considered good stuff? My uncle just got back from Demon Cross, and he said the Miller Family’s legions are now largely equipped with chanical War Blades that can even threaten High-Order Card Masters…”
“I heard that in the New City established by the Miller Family in Demon Cross, there’s even higher quality chanical equipnt for sale. Should we also take a look? I heard that if you join the Miller Family’s Hunting Team, you can even get new recruit equipnt benefits for free…”
“Let’s go! Let’s form a group and count in!”
“…”
The hunters in front of the window were all itching to move upon hearing this.
Many people were imdiately planning to head to the Old Continent.
Leonard Churchill watched and smiled to himself.
This sort of “free gimmick” worked well everywhere.
By doing so, a large number of hunters would be lured to pioneer the Demon Cross.
It looks like giving away so equipnt for free, but once chanical equipnt begins to be mass-produced, the cost will drop lower and lower, hardly spending much.
Moreover, the blueprints, materials, and ancient relics produced by the hunters clearing new lands would ultimately still end up in the hands of the wealthy.
And as long as people are drawn to the new city, every aspect of living—eating, clothing, lodging, and transportation—is money.
The more people there are, the more prosperous it becos.
The benefits that the Miller Family would gain would grow like a snowball, ever increasing.
The New City also benefited from this revival.
From this, it’s evident that the Miller Family does indeed have masterminds in their planning.
Leonard Churchill also recalled that he had attended a chanical equipnt launch by the Miller Family a few months ago.
From that ti, the Miller Family had already been laying out their plans in the field of machinery.
After getting to know Catherine Carter, Leonard Churchill experienced the brutal competition among the heirs within those top-tier noble families.
He also revised his views on nobility.
In the eyes of those at the bottom, the Federation’s nobility were nothing more than a bunch of fat lords and ladies who only knew indulgence.
But that wasn’t the case.
While so spoiled heirs may exist in such wealthy environnts,
As long as a family doesn’t fall into decay, it must have its capable individuals.
Especially the Federation’s five grand Senator families who have sustained for two hundred years, not a single one of them is to be underestimated.
The Saul Miller that Leonard Churchill killed before was just a side branch of the grand Senator Miller Family.
And the strategy unfolding now reveals so of the Miller Family’s depth.
Leonard Churchill rembered that when chatting before, Catherine Carter had said that the current so-called federal governnt was really just a bunch of ambitious nobles who didn’t want to be ruled by others, yet they lacked the absolute power to rule over others themselves, so they concocted this joint council.
Even Dragon City, the forr capital of the Orlan Dynasty, is now nominally the seat of the Federal Parliant, yet it isn’t the center.
The current Federation has sowhat of a rivalry of the mightiest, with no central power.
Yet, as the sole connection to the Old Continent, Sinless City has now subtly beco the central city of the entire Federation.
The focal point of all attention.
Now, Sinless City is truly the stage where the top elites play their gas.
At this thought, a slight smile curled at the corner of Leonard Churchill’s mouth.
He looked forward to such excitent.
It was as if a spotlight had descended, a grand stage was set and the actors had already taken their places.
A fascinating drama had begun.
…
The changes in Sinless City were too great. After strolling the streets for a while, Leonard Churchill felt his knowledge was far out of date.
He decided to find a tavern to sit and enquire about recent events.
Downing Street, number 13, Old Gun Tavern.
This was one of the taverns Leonard Churchill frequented.
It had a long history and a solid background.
After an absence of two months, the number of patrons had surged, and the old tavern had been renovated.
It now had two new levels added with a steel structure and a larger Gun Sculpture at the brass entrance.
