Beneath the Red Dragon-Chapter 130 - 61: My Name Is Bang Bang, and I Like Bang Bang!
"Ah, slow down, slow down," Goblin Bang Bang’s bewildered face showed a pained expression, and he began to wail loudly, "My leg is broken, don’t pull me, don’t pull me anymore, if you pull, the whole goblin Bang Bang will be broken."
Finally, amidst Goblin Bang Bang’s wailing, the other goblins abandoned this overly rough method and pried open the wood that was pressing on Bang Bang, finally rescuing the young goblin Bang Bang.
The unlucky goblin Bang Bang sat crookedly on the ground, and once the other goblins pulled him out, they no longer cared about him, letting him fend for himself.
Even Bang Bang’s neighbor stopped his cursing. He was tired and didn’t want to bother with Bang Bang.
"Hey, my leg is broken, what should I do with this house," the young Bang Bang sat on the ground, looking at the house that had once again turned into ruin, his face full of worry, but he suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly shouted, "Ah, I forgot my toy, I have to find it, I hope it’s not destroyed."
The young, ugly goblin Bang Bang hurriedly dragged his stubby short leg to crawl to the ruins of his house, using his shriveled short hands to search through the debris, constantly rummaging through the dust.
"Elf Trap Ball, not this one," Goblin Bang Bang found a round tool emitting a unique scent, and without hesitation, threw it aside,
"Dogman Vision Enhancement Glasses, not this one," a pair of glasses connected by a thin string to two lenses, similar to hanging-ear style glasses, was tossed aside by Goblin Bang Bang.
"Centaur Fertility Potion, not this one," a black-green bottle was discarded by Goblin Bang Bang. His stubby hands kept rummaging, tossing aside one peculiar item after another, and his ugly face was already covered with a layer of fine sweat.
"I hope none of them are destroyed," Goblin Bang Bang muttered. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and his face showed an expression of happiness as he dug out an object similar to a furnace used by humans for warmth. Embracing it tightly in his arms,
he laughed heartily, "It’s not broken, it’s not broken. The Magic Furnace hasn’t been completely destroyed. I, Goblin Bang Bang, will receive a reward from the Giant Dragon."
Green-skinned Goblin Bang Bang was known as a daring inventor in the Green-skinned Goblin Tribe, always possessing an intense curiosity about everything in the world and continuously exploring under its influence.
Most of the things invented by Green-skinned Goblin Bang Bang during his exploration were peculiar and had little practical use, but occasionally one or two highly useful inventions emerged, or ones with some development potential. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Green-skinned Goblin Bang Bang exhibited exceptional acuity in sensing certain traits of things in the world, as he once ground certain stones extracted from the mountain beneath Red Dragon into powder, mixing it with pungent substances contained in volcanic soil and ground charcoal, creating a certain pungent powder capable of burning.
Although after inventing this powder, Goblin Bang Bang couldn’t control the amount and ended up burning half of his house and his neighbor’s house, he truly didn’t do it on purpose.
He invented this powder merely to drive away mosquitoes and venomous insects ubiquitous in the forest, not expecting the random concoction to react so violently upon encountering flame.
Then Goblin Bang Bang was reported by the Goblin Leader to Dogman Leader who managed the goblin camp, and Dogman Leader Bag chose to report this special invention to the Giant Dragon, thus also informing Karon.
Upon the Red Dragon meeting this daring and unlucky goblin, they discovered in astonishment that this goblin had unwittingly created Black Powder.
Although Karon wasn’t surprised by the advent of Black Powder, in his perception, this world differed significantly from the original world. Even if some foundational rules were shared across worlds, and Black Powder could exert its power just as in the original world, Karon wouldn’t focus on it.
In Karon’s view, without a mature industrial system and a complete production capability framework, utilizing these powders effectively was merely wishful thinking. Moreover, even with a supporting infrastructure, it wouldn’t reach a level where it could harm even a prepared Low Tier Mage.
The resources consumed by input and the rewards gained are far from proportional, plus this world thrives in magic. Magic Civilization has gradually reached its peak.
Some methods of applying magic far exceed the industrial technology of the previous life, like the colossal Floating City high in the sky in Karon’s memory heritage, various magical and powerful golems, and various potent Forbidden Curse Magic, with a destructive capability not inferior to any methods from the previous life.
Thus, Karon never considered pursuing any industrial great development in this world or focusing on it. To the Red Dragon, blindly applying unchanged methods, analyzing specific issues specifically and adapting to local circumstances was extremely foolish.
However, some practices from the previous life had their merits, and he could choose the best options from both worlds. When the productivity of the territory reached a certain level, he could properly establish a basic related product assembly line and industrial foundation system, mainly to facilitate the territory’s life and essential construction, and most importantly, to serve the Giant Dragon’s ideas.
Even though young Goblin Bang Bang’s invention did not deliver the excitement to the Red Dragon, the Red Dragon considered this goblin a rare talent, granted this young goblin a relatively unique and superior position and reward, allowing this Green-skinned Goblin to directly interact with Dogman Leader Bag, and then meet the Red Dragon through Bag.
