Having served the Empire for half of his life, Ela was decisively sold out. He intended to flee to another country but was nearly beaten to death during his escape before being saved by a dragon-gi...
"So that's how it is. The curves of their bodies are really beautiful."
Yinla muttered to himself as he soaked in the water, touching the sword of the Jiaoren leader. He stroked the sword from its long snout to its head, saying, "A beautiful body like a shark, and a weapon like a sword for piercing."
It's worth mentioning that, in Yinla's understanding, the diet of the "swordfish" consists of tuna, flying fish, squid, and most crustaceans; in other words... they eat small creatures.
However, these sword-wielding creatures seem to be different. Their mouths have an extremely special structure that allows them to open wide... They use their "swords" to stab and kill prey that is not small in size, and then easily cut it up and swallow it.
Perhaps, Jianjiao really is a true hunter.
"If we're going to make magical armor, we should probably choose one that's worn over the sword, with a nested and bitten-in-the-mouth design for double-fixation. Then it can be easily hung on the bottom of the ship for easy access during meals."
As Yinla analyzed the situation, he gently helped Jianjiao remove the moss from its body, looked at the leader of the Jiao people on the shore, and asked, "What do you think of this design?"
As Yinla asked, describing possible future scenarios, she said, "If the fleet encounters the enemy, have Jianjiao immediately put on the magic armor hanging on the ship, then directly pierce through the bottom of the enemy ship. After the battle, swim back and put the magic armor on."
The leader of the Sword-forged people listened to the satisfied "ang ang" sound emanating from her Sword-forged weapon. Looking at Yinra in the sea, she nodded and said, "The Sword-forged weapon says it's very satisfied. How is the skill level of that newcomer, Wolf? Can she really forge magical armor well?"
Yinla shook his head, got up from the sea, and his clothes dried within seconds, as did the clothes underneath his outer garment. He said, "I don't know, but... I believe she is at least capable of forging."
With that, Yinla left the beach... He decided to go back and draw the design. Although he didn't have any skills in this area, it was probably similar to drawing Michelangelo's anatomical diagrams.
"Ang ang ang~"
Sword barked twice, which made its owner angrily tap its head and say, "What are you thinking about? If you're itchy, scratch yourself. Mr. Yinla is too lazy to do these things."
...
"Tikkap, help me back to my room."
Tikkap: Yes, Lady Inra.
Following Inra's whispered instructions, Tikkap remotely took over his body, and in a few moments, he traveled through the Void Realm and returned to his room a few seconds later.
"Thanks for your hard work."
[Tikkap: No, this is much easier~]
Yinla reactivated Tikkap's access. He held the quill on his desk, pondering where to begin. He instinctively wanted to twirl the pen, but then realized... the quill in his hand was already stained with ink.
If it really does turn around, his clothes can be cleaned automatically, so it's okay, but the room will definitely suffer.
Sure enough, no matter how much time passed, he couldn't get used to it.
"Draw it from different angles... front, side, and top, that should be fine."
As Yinla said this, what he didn't know was that... although the concept of "three-view drawings" was no longer used in his time, he had already come up with a fairly reasonable way of drawing in this world.
Indeed, the wisdom of different eras is interconnected.
——————————
"It's done!"
As Yinla spoke, he looked at the artwork in his hand. He stared intently at the ink blob that was clearly divided into three parts, requiring lengthy annotations to make it understand what the painting was about... This kind of drawing was indeed not presentable.
The wisdom of different eras may be interconnected, but the foundation of artistic skill will not.
However, it was already getting late, so Yinla decided to give it a shot anyway. He took the blueprint directly to Wolf's room and gently knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong~"
After a while, Wolf opened the door and saw that it was Illa. She turned around and invited him to come in and sit down, saying, "Lord Illa, please come in... I have something I want to report."
Once Ira sat down in the room, Wolf sat down opposite him, her wolf ears twitching slightly, and said, "Werewolves are not well-suited to be magic craftsmen. Except for a few who are good at writing, the others cannot memorize magic runes well."
In other words, is it a lack of sensitivity to language?
Yinla quickly gave his reply, saying, "You only need to train a few who are good at writing. The others just need to be taught blacksmithing. After they make the semi-finished products, you can then carry out the work of engraving the incantations."
The Gene Era
This method is quite common and can be considered a variation of some kind of assembly line.
"I see, I understand now."
Wolf quickly grasped the convenience of this approach. She nodded and said, "But this also means I need to properly teach those werewolves, right?"
That's true, because that's the inheritance of craftsmanship.
"These are design drawings, some magical equipment used in sword combat."
As he said this, Illa handed the crumpled parchment to Wolfe, saying somewhat awkwardly, "It might be a bit difficult to understand. If there's anything you don't understand, I'll explain it to you directly."
"..."
Wolfe stared intently at the parchment that Illa had unfolded. She seemed to understand something instantly and said, "Oh! It's a magical costume designed from three different angles? Hmm, um! I understand it completely!"
Is it true or not?
Yinla looked at the pile of excrement he had drawn with some suspicion. He noticed that Wolf's eyes were getting brighter and brighter. Looking at the shimmering green light in the other's bright eyes, he felt a little insecure.
"This is genius! With these annotations, I completely understand what kind of thing should be created... How could the Demon King's territory have come up with such a way of drawing? No, Lady Yinla, you are an Imperial citizen. Is this the foundation of the Empire?"
Amid Wolf's exclamations of amazement, Ira looked somewhat bewildered at the other design drawings hanging on the wall... Those drawings were brought by Wolf to the Demon King's territory, and perhaps they could offer a glimpse into the level of [blueprints] in this world.
Yinla: "..."
Wolf: "Exquisite composition and well-placed annotations."
Yinla: "..."
Wolf: "It's a million times better than the Orc Kingdom's blueprints. I'm going to hang it up as a model for future blueprints!"
Yinla: "..."
Wolf: "Lady Illa, what are you looking at?"
...
Yinla was looking at a drawing on the wall of Wolf, signed "[Dongdong Chacha, Master of the Copper Hammer]", but the drawing was really...
What?! What is this even about?!
