Chapter 186: Sea Fortress, Riding the Wind and Waves!
Before he knew it, Wen Wen had been on the Trembling Island for more than a month, and as early as two days earlier, Cuenca's brand-new steel battleship "Riding the Wind and Waves" had been successfully launched. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Naturally, this is due to the mildness, because Cuenca and Dior originally only wanted to make the kind of ironwood warship that the Iron Sail Country had been using before, but because there was not enough refining agent, the wood near the keel could not fit with the metal keel at all, and if it was forcibly assembled, the hull would become very unstable, and it would fall apart when it was not good, let alone fight or something.
With a gentle proposal, the dockyard's technicians boldly made a new attempt to transcend the times.
That is, the replacement of wood with pure metal, the replacement of refining agents with stamped rivets, and the use of a completely new "welding technique" proposed by the gentle proposal to firmly hold two metal sheets together with the help of stamped rivets.
In short, it is the most basic welding technology in modern times, although the welding gun and welding machine are all experimental products made by the technicians of the fusion core city with the theory of mildness and half-hanging, and the welding rod is also made out in a hurry by the capital of ignition, but ......
The results are outstanding!
Gentle had improved the iron-making technology they had been using for hundreds of years in the Ignition Capital, and before seeing the so-called refinery, Gentle had never imagined that the Iron Sail people with such convenient magical energy would only use them to control the facilities in the refinery, instead of using magic energy to power the converter!
The huge refining converter actually extracted the energy needed for its operation from the large waterwheel in the reservoir next to it!
The refinery was built by the plane travelers at the time, and it seemed that they were short on time, so the huge refining converter had a flaw that people didn't notice at the time, but in the course of its later use, this huge problem gradually became apparent.
That is, this refining converter can't withstand the huge magic energy coming from the core of the city at all, if the magic net is directly connected, the refining converter will directly shut down due to too much energy!
This...... This can be a fucking problem?!
Then, with the help of the refinery workers in the refinery, Wen Wen made several "wirewound resistors" on the spot using the materials available in the refinery, and then he spent nearly an hour popularizing what "resistors" were to the technicians in the refinery.
Then, when the workers connected these "wirewound resistors" in series to the magic net and the refining converter, the problem that had plagued the refinery of the capital of ignition for hundreds of years was easily resolved!
With the super energy of the magic network, the refining converter has suddenly entered the state of full operation, and the quality of the steel produced in it has also increased by more than three or four grades compared with the original!
What are you kidding, the waterwheel is changed for a magic net, and the shotgun is changed for a gun, can you not hang it?
The refining agent that Uncle Kunca regarded as a treasure is a by-product of the original refining converter, because the energy is not enough, so the iron essence that cannot be refined in the refining converter will be separated from the steel.
Although with the help of these things, the quality of steel produced by the refinery can be improved a lot, but at most it is at the current level, and the output of this thing is extremely low, and it will take time to exert its strength, which is also a helpless way for Tiefan Country.
But now, the refining converter has been mildly improved with series resistance, and it can directly refine these iron essences directly into the steel, and the refining agent will naturally be eliminated!
Inside the dockyard in the city of Iron Sail Harbor.
"Hey...... It's a pity to just throw it away. ”
Cuenca held his pipe in his mouth and looked at the abandoned metal keel in the corner of the dock in a daze, the one in front of him was the main body of the battleship that Mayor Dio had ordered the workers to drive out overnight, because it was using stored steel, so when Wen Wen arrived at the dock with the brand new steel produced by the capital of Ignition, the huge keel that had been formed was directly abandoned on the spot.
"What's the pity, even if this ship is made, the Wind and Waves can hit ten at a time." Wen Wen behind him stretched his waist and said softly nonchalantly, "The various facilities in the three major cities have hardly suffered any losses, if you want me to say, your Iron Sail Country has only lost the population in this torrent demon invasion, uncle, you have time to sigh here, you might as well think about where to get some permanent residents." ”
"I can't think of any other way than to buy and sell people on the black market on the mainland." Cuenca sighed, "But those who buy and sell in the black market are usually rare half-human races or other slaves for the pleasure of the rich, where is the labor." ”
"Just think about it, but don't put it into practice, in my place, human trafficking is illegal." Wen Wen squinted his eyes and said, "Having said that, I really can't imagine that there is such a place as a black market in your world, and you dare to openly sell human beings." ”
"Boy, every world has its own dark side, you just don't know." Cuenca smiled and whispered, "Wasn't that half-elf who followed you a slave before he met you?" ”
Cuenca's words made Gentle Whisper for a while, although she had never used An Yu as a slave, but this could not change the tragic experience she had before she met herself.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it." Wen Wen blinked his eyes and looked at the Wind and Wave Rider moored on the shore outside the dock, "You're almost done here, when are you going to send me to the east coast?" ”
"That madman Bausch is going to put some kind of magic crystal cannon on my ship, and the most extreme thing is that you are still facing him." Cuenca said dissatisfiedly, "The last time that guy tinkered with something on my ship, it almost sank my ship, and it was just a ...... Anyway, the name is very long, and then he actually told me that this cannon needs to be recharged, and if you want to use it, you have to load another thing on the ship! ”
"Poof." Thinking of the battleship that was almost lying on the shore as a battery, Wen Wen couldn't hold back a laugh for a while, "I heard Amber tell me about this. ”
"This time won't be the same as last time, will it?"
"Don't worry, what he installed this time was improved and measured by me and him." Wen smiled and said, "It's not easy to change this thing, and the most important thing is that the Wind and Waves is made of pure steel, with a total length of 400 meters, a total width of 60 meters, a draft of 13 meters, a full draft of 16 meters, and a full 70,000 tons of steel plates are all thrown on your ship as armor, I can only say that the current battleship is to install the previous Uncle Baush's god king cannon, there is no problem at all!" ”
