After the first 500 experience passengers entered the "Beautiful Princess".

The hatch closes, and eight high-level magicians in the power room, each in teams of two, drive a fire demon engine.

"Buzz~"

Four Fire Demon engines spewed blazing flames.

At one end of the runway, the beautiful Princess, which has a body length of 160 meters, only ran less than 300 meters before raising its head and slowly rising into the sky.

After increasing the horsepower.

The Beautiful Princess quickly rose to an altitude of 10,000 meters and entered the relatively gentle stratosphere.

The speed is about 300.

On the foredeck with a good view, the passenger door is perched on a safety railing and offers a view below.

Blue sky and white clouds.

Wide field of vision.

On the flat land, the houses are like beans, the fields are contiguous, the rivers are like nets, and the forests are like green belts.

"It's beautiful. ”

"The house down there is so small, the castle is almost out of sight. ”

"This view, I've never seen before, is simply amazing. ”

The passengers let out various exclamations.

Standing at the front of the deck, standing in the best sightseeing position, Winnie also felt relaxed and pleasing to the eye.

This kind of scenery is different from the scenery you see in the sky when you put on a flying backpack.

"Senior sister, this is the fruit wine prepared on the airship, do you want to have a glass?"

Zhou Ming held two goblets in his hand and handed one of them to Winnie.

Winnie nodded, reaching out to take it.

"Senior sister, what do you think of this magic floating boat?" Zhou Ming asked.

"It's ok, it's nice. ”

Taking an elegant sip of the fruit wine, Winnie nodded faintly...... This year's Winnie is also 28 years old, she is no longer a girl, and she exudes a mature smell.

Zhou Ming looked ahead and said something long:

"If nothing else, in the next twenty years, the magic float will become the main passenger vehicle and the secondary cargo vehicle, and it will spread all over the skies of various countries on the continent at an astonishing speed. ”

"From now on, exchanges between various countries will increase, and the speed of development of various countries will be significantly accelerated. ”

"If I donate the technology of the Magic Float to the Magic Association for free, they will give me at least 300,000 contribution points, which is more than the reward of [Polar Ice Elixir]. ”

Zhou Ming said.

300,000 contribution points?

Winnie was slightly stunned, the contribution points of the Magic Association have always been difficult to get, and even many legendary mages have given up the idea of earning enough 100,000 contribution points and going to the Magic City, because 100,000 contribution points, even if they are busy for a hundred years, it is difficult to save enough.

And the lifespan of a legendary mage is about 500 years old, and it takes a hundred years to serve the Magic Association, which not all legendary mages can do.

But this kid actually said that after he gave the manufacturing technology of the magic float to the Magic Association for free, the Magic Association would give him at least 300,000 contribution points......

Is the technique of this magic float really so important?

This thing looks pretty simple.

Seeing Winnie's confused expression, Zhou Ming smiled faintly and explained: "Maybe you think that the magic float boat is as simple as filling an air bag, carving some magic circles, and installing a few fire demon engines, but ......"

"I can tell you responsibly, except for the Continental Chamber of Commerce and the Magic Association, it will take at least 50 years for any country in the human world to build the same 'Beautiful Princess'!"

"The fire demon engine technology, the sealing airbag weaving technology, the airless extraction technology, and even the seemingly simple lifting body structure design technology and the large airship manufacturing technology on the Beautiful Princess...... These technologies, no matter which one they are put in, will require at least ten years of technical research and massive resource investment, and they must not give up halfway. ”

"Is it so mysterious?"

Winnie looked suspicious, when this kid was developing the magic float boat, she had been observing it for more than a month, and she didn't see anything complicated, but she thought it was quite simple.

Zhou Ming smiled and said nothing, of course he wouldn't tell Winnie that if it weren't for the system in his brain that helped solve a large number of mathematical calculation problems, no matter how powerful he was, he would not be able to design a magic float with technical content...... With the assistance of the system, he can be said to have avoided all detours and tuition payments, and went straight to success.

So it left the impression that "this thing is very simple".

But in fact, if it weren't for the system acting as a plug-in for him, where would it be so simple?

For example, the extraction of "no air", the density of this substance is very low, the atomic volume is very small, how to collect the airless, is a world-class problem, Zhou Ming even concluded: in this world, under experimental conditions, no more than 100 people can find the existence of no airless, no more than 10 smart people can come up with a way to collect the airless.

It was Zhou Ming himself, with the assistance of the system, who collected and successfully stored the "airless" through very complex methods.

That is to say, at present, in the entire Azeroa Continent, except for the Continental Chamber of Commerce that has a cooperative relationship with Zhou Ming, there will be no second organization that has invented a way to store gasless.

Without the "airless" resources provided by the Continental Chamber of Commerce, there would be no second institution with the ability to build magical floats.

But what is puzzling is why Zhou Ming is so sure, relying on the big treasure of the "Magic Floating Boat", why did the Magic Association give him 300,000 contribution points?

It's just a faster vehicle.

Why are so many contribution points rewarded?

So in the ensuing conversation, Winnie's mind was full of questions about this.

Zhou Ming looked at the boundless continent below and asked meaningfully, "Senior Sister Winnie, do you think this world is big?"

"Big, very big. Winnie nodded, and in many of the school's geography books, the adjective "infinitely vast" appeared in many descriptions of the world.

"What is the country of this world?" Zhou Ming asked again.

"Many, very much. ”

"Do you think the world is peaceful?"

"Uh~"

Faced with this esoteric question, Winnie pondered for a while and spoke, "Some places are peaceful, and some places are not so peaceful. ”

"Yes, some kingdoms are at war, and some kingdoms are bathed in a thousand years of peace, but what I want to ask is that if in twenty or thirty years, a war breaks out all over the continent, if it is divided into two camps, and the distinction is made by color, one is the red camp and the other is the white camp. ”

"If there are 1,000 kingdoms belonging to the red camp and 100 kingdoms belonging to the white camp, and a big war breaks out between the two sides, does the senior sister think that side will win?"

"Needless to say, of course the Red Camp won, they have 1,000 kingdoms!" Winnie said without thinking.

"Yes, it stands to reason that this is true, but I also assume that in the war of the red and white camps, the white camp with fewer kingdoms has a magical float and has a transportation device like a magic float, and the red camp with more kingdoms does not have a magic float, do you think that side will win?" Zhou Ming asked.

"This ......"

This question stumped Winnie a bit, and she wanted to say that the red faction, which had ten times the strength of the white camp, would continue to win, after all, the disparity in strength was too great.

But this bastard kid always likes to be clever, and if she accidentally catches his way, then she will be embarrassed again.

So she simply shook her head and said, "I don't know, I don't know there's going to win." ”

"I'll tell you the answer, the winner should be five or five points. ”

"If the white camp on the weaker side has the help of the Magic Float, its probability of winning will increase to 50%!"

Seeing that Winnie's lips moved, as if she wanted to refute it, Zhou Ming continued: "There are two decisive factors in war, one is time, and the other is strength!"

"In the same amount of time, the one with the most troops wins!"

"With the same number of troops, the one who is better prepared for war wins!"

"And as we just said, this world is very big, there are many countries in this world, if a large-scale war breaks out, even if the red camp has more than ten times the number of troops, but because the distance is too far and the march is slow, the army that can move to the border of the white camp is actually very limited. ”

"Even the soldiers of each unit will not engage more than 100,000 li, because if it is on horseback, the distance of 100,000 li, even on the march, is more than three years...... Few armies are willing to spend three years on the road to fight another country, and even if they do, the morale of the soldiers in this army will plummet and their numbers plummeted due to supplies, homesickness, and lack of adaptation. ”

"Therefore, in the vast battlefield, the war between the red and white camps is limited to those countries that are close to each other, and it is impossible for both sides to use 100% of their troops. ”

"But the white camp has magical floats. ”

"The magic floatship can fly 20,000 miles a day, and can transport thousands of soldiers at a time, as well as a large amount of war materials. ”

"So the white camp has a higher utilization rate of troops and a higher efficiency in mobilizing resources!"

"The white camp can even mobilize the armies of 10 or 20 kingdoms in a relatively short period of time to attack one of the kingdoms of the red camp and form a local absolute advantage!"

"If this set of operations is repeated, the white camp can even defeat thousands of kingdoms in the red camp one after another!"

"In this war of 'fighting fast and slow', the white camp, which is inferior in numbers, may even win!"

Hearing Zhou Ming's explanation, the pupils of Winnie's eyes suddenly contracted.

But she immediately shook her head violently: "Impossible, this is unlikely, the situation you assume, it is just the situation of ordinary armies, you don't forget that there are swordsmen and mages in various kingdoms, especially legendary mages, one person can destroy a million armies, if the legendary mages participate in the war, the situation you assume is impossible!"

Legendary mages are a rule-subversing force, and in front of legendary mages, the million-strong and ten-million-strong armies of some kingdoms are particularly ridiculous.

"Senior sister is right, in front of the legendary mage, the magic float is not so terrifying, but there are legendary mages in the red camp, but there are no legendary mages in the white camp?"

"If both sides use legendary mages, both of them release powerful magic at every turn, and even destroy the country and ban spells, this red-white war will not start at all. ”

"So I'm leaning towards this kind of war, which could be divided into two theaters. ”

"The battlefield of mortals and mortals, the battlefield of gods and gods. ”

"Mortals and gods do not fight on the same battlefield. ”

"Before the start of the big war, the red and white sides will abide by the rules of separation of the two battlefields. ”

"If you don't follow the rules, the world will be ruined and everyone will be losers. ”

"If both sides follow the rules, then in the mortal battlefield, the magic floatship, will play a vital role. ”

"Even if that side has a magic float, the odds are greater. ”

"So the magic float may seem ordinary, but in the midst of war, its value will become immense. ”

"So I think it's worth 300,000 contribution points. ”

Zhou Ming said pointedly, not continuing to go deeper.

Looking at the boundless earth below, Senior Sister Winnie nodded thoughtfully.

……

A week later.

A week after the successful test flight of the magic float ship "Beautiful Princess".

From the Magic Association, Zhou Ming got the "300,000 contribution points" he requested.

The old wolf on the phone didn't bargain with him too much, and in order to get the technical information of the magic float, he happily paid 300,000 contribution points.

gave 20,000 of them to Mr. Sayles, and after making up 100,000 for him.

In this way, Zhou Ming, who had a contribution score of 370,000 in the membership badge of the Magic Association, obtained the qualification to enter the "Magic City" through the spatial teleportation array.
