The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

Chapter 96: Netherworld Language Technology? Mechanical Ascension!


Demon King Territory, Quality Square.

Late that day, when Oke returned from the third layer of the labyrinth, he shouted excitedly upon seeing Luo Yan.

"Lord Demon King, your 'players' are simply geniuses!!!"

For Oke's exaggerated reaction, Luo Yan had long since become accustomed.

After all, this guy's dedication to flattery had reached the extent that he would meticulously interpret the profound meanings of each fart.

Honestly speaking,

that's pretty perverse.

"Oke, I've heard this so much that my ears are almost calloused, just tell me directly what happened."

"Yes, Lord Demon King!"

Oke, so excited that every cell in his body trembled, vividly described the events that happened in Iron Teeth City that day.

Although Luo Yan had already read the spoilers on the official forum before this guy came back,

listening to Oke's description still involuntarily brought a surprised expression to his face.

"They've already started designing robots using Netherworld Language?"

Is it not——

too big a leap?!

Oke excitedly nodded his head.

"Exactly, exactly! Oke saw it with his own eyes! They've already made a big arm! The kind that can be used by connecting a Demon Crystal!"

"And not just the big arm, they also engraved runes inside the cannon barrel! They blasted the magical energy directly out!"

Good heavens—

Could this be the Demon Crystal Cannon?!

Although Luo Yan did not know exactly what this method of directly blasting magical energy was, just hearing Oke's description was outrageous enough.

He had thought that the post by [A Single Gulp of the Chemical Pool] on the forum was boasting, who would have thought the poster was being conservative?!

In the original plan, Luo Yan had sent these vocational players to Iron Teeth City for an exchange visit, mainly to help the local moles open up their thinking on Netherworld Language designs.

Who would have thought that these players, upon arriving at Iron Teeth City, would be like matches thrown into an oil barrel, directly leading those big-nosed moles to leapfrog industrialization and play with Mechanical Ascension?!

This is too defy the heavens!

However, after thinking it over, Luo Yan came to terms with it.

If he could accept magic, using magic in machines seemed not that hard to understand.

Even for the players, this approach was indeed the optimal solution.

After all, being from Earth, they were not skilled with Extraordinary Power. To cast a fireball would take a long time to learn, and without patience, they might not even learn it at all.

On the contrary—

Netherworld Language did not have these barriers!

It was more like a set of rules. Anyone who mastered the rules could use it, not limited only to the Transcendents bestowed by divine authority!

Therefore, as long as they possessed the relevant knowledge, and prepared the necessary materials and energy, even LV0 players could maximize its effects!

Watching the shocked Lord Demon King, Oke thickened his face and chuckled hee hee, cautiously making a request.

"Lord Demon King... for your servants to better train those little mice, please grant Oke more Translation Crystals... one Translation Crystal is really not enough for them."

Returning to his senses from the shock, Luo Yan spoke.

"That can be easily arranged, I've already placed the Translation Crystals on the shelves of the NPC store. Let them buy it from there."

The price of a Translation Crystal currently is 100,000 Joss Paper per piece, containing 2000 words and some basic grammar of the common surface languages.

Without it, players could only listen to NPCs speak and read subtitles on the player system interface. But with it, whether players chose to play as skeleton soldiers or lizardmen, they could communicate with most NPCs using the common surface languages.

For these players who had already been in the server for a month, coming up with 100,000 Joss Paper was not a difficult task.

However, considering that a significant portion of these players were the type who didn't focus well on tasks, their accounts might not have much Joss Paper.

After pondering for a moment, Luo Yan said,

"...Additionally, considering the special needs of your apprentices, I will provide them a batch of 'special custom-made Translation Crystals'. These custom versions not only contain more professional vocabulary, but also can be rented, costing only 100 Joss Paper per hour... I have named it the Enterprise Edition of the Translation Crystal."

Hearing the special care from Lord Demon King, tears of gratitude filled Oke's eyes.

Not having time to ponder whether this was a grace or shearing, he kowtowed in thanks, saying.

"Thank you, Lord Demon King, for your grace!"

If it were not for knowing this guy's character, Luo Yan would have almost suspected him of mocking himself.

"You're welcome, no need for formalities... Anything else?"

Oke raised his head, nodded hurriedly, and spoke somewhat hesitantly.

"It's like this, sir... Your minions are technically my apprentices, but they are all clamoring to establish a Magic Workshop. Of course, I'm not questioning your decision, but is this not a bit superfluous?"

Luo Yan suddenly laughed upon hearing this.

He hadn't expected the goblin, who cared nothing for dignity, to actually care quite a bit about the mentor-apprentice relationship.

Although he could simply choose not to explain, being a Demon King who cared about his subordinates' feelings, he straightened his expression and spoke.

"Oke, they are undeniably your apprentices, there's no doubt about that... As for establishing their own Magic Workshop, I think the two are not necessarily contradictory."

"But..."

Seeing Oke still in a quandary, Luo Yan continued at his own pace,

"Think bigger about your role. Are you just a small workshop owner who runs a Magic Workshop?"
