Chapter 420
Speaking of the era of steam power, what is the impression of most people?

I don't know what other people think, but Mu Xiu himself can't help but think of the 19th century, Victorian London, England, or the entire Western world parallel to that era.

At that time, modern science had just entered the field of vision of mankind, but many common sense problems had not been resolved.Compared with today, people at that time were somewhat ignorant, with some backward and old factors of the medieval era.

The cold steel machinery of the steam age perfectly fits with classicism, industrial revolution, Gothic literature, steam and fog, werewolves and vampires, Tesla and Edison...

However, it is beautiful and good, and it is an era full of nostalgic feelings and positive atmosphere, so until the modern time and space in the future, this long-lost era is still talked about by many people.

However, no matter how you look at it, the inexplicable keyword "steam power" should not appear in the background of Japan's Sengoku period anyway!
Because for the latter, Mu Xiu's impression is actually a preconceived impression left in the world view of works like "Inuyasha"——

Peaceful and peaceful villages, deep and quiet forest paths, magnificent mountains and rivers, quiet huge lakes, gentle and cold moonlight of the Warring States Period...etc., this is a truly beautiful picture scroll of the Warring States Period.

There may be no demons, ghosts, ghosts and ghosts, as long as there are famous princes and separatist regimes, and the flames of war will suffice.But there should definitely not be elements of steam age power roar, because that is too much!

"I heard that there were reincarnators on the technological side who used a large number of sophisticated modern weapons and technological products in the world of "Three Kingdoms", but were unable to recover them in time due to accidents afterwards."

If such a magical thing really happened, Mu Xiu could only think of one possibility.

"When the second wave of reincarnation enters, what you see is the surreal Three Kingdoms plane where Gundams, Mechas, and Apocalypse Tanks are rampaging everywhere..."

With such a complicated mood, the young man walked up to the observatory of the castle tower step by step. Even if the maids or guards along the way passed him by, they turned a blind eye.

The view from the observatory is very good, and you can easily overlook the city.

After all, during the feudal civil war period, lords from all over the country had already built a small watchtower on the roof of their mansion in the Acropolis, which was the predecessor of the castle tower.

Later, various feudal states relied on the small hills in the city to build the Acropolis.A high city was built in the center of the Acropolis, which was originally a mansion, called Tianshou Pavilion.This kind of large castle is not only a symbol of the political power and status of the daimyo or the lord of the city, but also has the function of a gate building and a watchtower in the military.

Therefore, with the convenience of overlooking, Mu Xiu could easily see the whole picture of the city.

This is a clean and tidy ancient city, with wooden houses, stone buildings, roads paved with smooth stone slabs, and a complete sewer system.

And the architectural style is very weird. Although the planning is neat and majestic, there are not many architectural styles of the Warring States Period——

It is not a city surrounded by wooden fences and shallow moats as it should be in this era, but a strange city that has begun to take on the steampunk style.

The planning of the castle town is very neat. Honmaru is also the main city area, and the contrast with other outer city areas is quite obvious.

Because it can be seen in the distance that there are many pointed workshops that are emitting black smoke, and the machines that are larger and have a unique violent beauty are roaring and roaring nearby, and a large amount of steam is gushing out.

On the street, there are many human figures made out of soft clay. They walk slowly and clumsily, but they are all powerful. They are carrying all kinds of heavy materials like a colony of ants.

There was even a huge and clumsy airship floating above that area, where a large group of people were busy climbing up and down with the help of ropes and gondolas, as if they were adjusting various parameters of the airship , It seems that some kind of experiment is being carried out.

Mu Xiu's powerful eyesight is enough to clearly capture the exposed interlaced metal pipes above, a large number of rivets used to fix the metal, jets of steam, complex gear transmission rods and instrument panel propeller knobs...

What caught his eye was a city of roughness and elegance, madness and sanity, and so on and so forth.

"...This is really...a big joke."

Twitching the corner of his mouth, the boy showed a rather dumbfounding expression, and the more he looked at this city, which was both advanced and backward, full of science fiction and magic, the weirder his expression became.

Fortunately, the scenery outside the city is as dirty and messy as any ancient civilization, muddy and messy mud roads, wooden shacks intertwined in disorder like slums...

And at this time, it seems that there is just a caravan entering the city, and those livestock, mules and horses are slowly passing by with heavy carts, doing a good job for the bad road conditions.

However, this always made Mu Xiu breathe a long sigh of relief.

Such a situation allowed him to judge that although some strange changes had taken place in the development direction of human civilization in this world, people drove huge and clumsy machines and began to stumble and run on another branch of science.

Although they are still bumpy at the moment, sooner or later the more they run, the smoother they will be, and finally they will run on the road of civilization development, ruthlessly crushing old things, constantly exploring, and constantly innovating.

In the end, there is no doubt that he will use his own wisdom to compose the glory of another form of industrial civilization.

It's just that this is only the beginning after all. Although I don't know what inexplicable reason caused the world to go on such a crooked path, Mu Xiu can at least be sure that this change has not yet fully started.

After all, even Sunfu Castle, the residence of Miss Imagawa Yoshimoto, the first archer of the Tokaido, the capital of the Suruga country as important as a small Kyoto, and the heart of the Imagawa clan's sphere of influence, has not completely turned into a steampunk city .

It is still in the state of renovation, and the outer city area is still as bad as ever, which makes people look down on it.

Even if we concentrate our efforts, we haven't completed the transformation of a city, so how can there be redundant manpower and material resources scattered, so that the whole people's running will enter the age of steam?

However, Mu Xiu was a little concerned. He was not sure whether such a change only appeared in Junzhou, or it also appeared in other vassal states, or even... such a trend of change appeared on a global scale?

If that is the case, a single spark can start a prairie fire, and there is no telling when it will erupt in an all-round way.

At that time, the human civilization in this world will also rush directly from the Iron Age, when gunpowder was in its infancy, to a weird steam power age in a drag race.

——But looking at this situation, it is very likely that it is the era of punk-style steam power.

Because Mu Xiu glanced over, not only read the message of "steam technology", but also read the message of "alchemy craft", which made him sure that after he left, there must be another visitor from another time and space. this plane.

And considering that there are some mysterious powers in this world itself, coupled with the domineering power system that has been spread for his own reasons, Mu Xiu has some doubts that it will inevitably be a civilized world where magic and science coexist in the end.

Steam engine, gunpowder, voodoo magic, domineering, alchemy...

Think about it carefully, God knows that all these factors are mixed together, what kind of deformed civilization system might be born? !
Alchemy nuclear bomb?Steam empty track?Magic floating city?
"Maybe it's too much worry. This city hasn't been completely transformed yet. Let's talk about when they start to build railways and other transportation networks..."

Muttering to himself, Mu Xiu looked towards the sky subconsciously, he wanted to fly to the sky, and take a good look at the details of the advancing historical process on this planet.

only--

"What's the matter, are you surprised? It took me so long to see... How is Miss Ben's residence?"

A very haughty voice came from behind. Wearing gorgeous and cumbersome Twelve singles, Yoshimoto Imagawa, who had loose black long hair, raised his head proudly. His white and slender neck was like a proud white swan.

"To be honest, it was beyond my imagination, and it really shocked me..."

Mu Xiu was not very surprised, but turned around to look at the Hei Changzhi King behind him, stretched out a finger and rubbed his forehead, showing a dumbfounding expression.

"To be honest, I really can't imagine what kind of strange changes the world has gone through since I left."

After coming to the observatory, he didn't restrain himself to hide his aura, so it seemed normal for the king to notice him.However, the opponent immediately left those guys and hurried over, which was slightly unexpected by Mu Xiu.

Or is it just that she just lacks such an opportunity, so that she doesn't need to listen to those guys blah blah?

"Hmph, it's nothing, it's just that a group of strange guys stirred up the whole world at that time." The Lord Hei Changzhi snorted softly, and then answered Mu Xiu's question, "But it's also thanks to them making troubles and making troubles." , and even recklessly assassinated the former general Ashikaga Yoshiki, so that this lady took the opportunity to take the position."

"Uh, is it just like that?" Mu Xiu blinked, feeling that what he wanted to hear was not these things.

Ashikaga Yoshiki, if I remember correctly, should be the No. 13th generation of the Muromachi Shogunate general who conquered the land. As for the Ashikaga clan, it is the clan that has served as the general of the Muromachi Shogunate for generations.

If there is a problem with this bloodline, the Kira family will continue to inherit the post of general. If even the Kira family's bloodline is extinct, then the Imagawa family will inherit... This seems to be left over from 500 years ago Regulations, that is, may not have been effective.

But as long as it can play a role, then this is a legitimate name.

"I know what you want to know, these technologies are indeed obtained from those guys—"

Imagawa Yoshimoto frowned, as if thinking of something unpleasant, he seemed a little unhappy.

"Those guys were messing around in the beginning, and they all mastered a lot of strange abilities, which caused us a lot of headaches. When they were the strongest, they even occupied the entire Kyoto. The separatist party was like an enemy country. All... well, I suffered a bit."

She bit her lower lip lightly, as if she was very dissatisfied with what happened during that time.

"And then what?"

Mu Xiu couldn't help but frowned, he was almost sure that it was another reincarnation, maybe the reincarnation was still in the plane conquest mode, otherwise they shouldn't be trying to build power.

After all, the original value of this world is really not worth it. It is okay to say that it is to establish power in a future science fiction world. After all, you can go in every once in a while to harvest technology, resources, and a large number of technological weapons.

"Then, and then there was really no other way. At that time, Miss Ben was about to unify the world, but such a group of inexplicable guys came out, I was really not reconciled..."

The lord of the country seemed to be a little guilty, she twitched her head while fiddling with her fingers, not looking at Mu Xiu.

"That's why I spread out the power cultivation method you gave me at the beginning... I just thought there was no other way, but I didn't expect the effect to be surprisingly good. Many people can get started very quickly. Strength, and rapid progress..."

"..."

"..."

Mu Xiu nodded thoughtfully: "I understand..."

When a world encounters a huge crisis, the pan-consciousness or restraining power of the plane will take action.

The situation that the Lord said is very likely that the restraining force has relaxed the suppression of the extraordinary power, and deliberately promoted the people on this plane to become stronger faster.

That is to say, in order to deal with the crisis, the world took the initiative to hack the creatures that should be robbed...

Wait, if this is the case, doesn't it mean that the main reason for the annihilation of those reincarnated people is because of themselves?After all, if there is no specific cultivation method to bring extraordinary power, restraining power can't be created out of nothing, right?

Because it can only interfere with existing phenomena and make full use of all objective conditions...
