Chapter 623: Set Sail, Set Sail!
Thousands of players and hours spent on this massive creation. Sixty meters long and more than 20 meters wide, in order to reduce the weight, the entire airship is mainly made of wood, and only a part of the area is covered with "iron" in order to increase strength. The reason why it is said to be an airship here is because it basically maintains the form of a "ship" as a whole, and in addition to the core power furnace provided by a Link Light, most of the floating power of this ship comes from the rune circle engraved by Alvin on the wooden hull, so the floating mechanism is really very similar to a ship in the traditional sense, and even, in order to increase the power, everyone also configured three sails on the ship. The new wooden hull and white sails make it look particularly dazzling in the sun.
"We're going to take this thing to another land later?" Someone asked, still unconvinced.
"So far, yes." Another player replied.
"The people next to you will give way!" Ivan's shout rang out, "Yes, get out thirty meters away, we're going to take a test flight." ”
"Is the power furnace on? Okay, let's try to float first. At Ivan's shout, there was a roar from the inside of the hull, and the huge hull of the whole ship floated up little by little, gradually breaking away from the wooden support frame.
"Get up!" Everyone was amazed. But it didn't take long for Ivan to yell back.
"Stay away, beware of something falling and hitting you!"
"......" Everyone didn't think much about it, but when they heard this, they immediately became extremely worried about the safety of this ship.
"How's the magic circle running?" Ivan ignored the men and continued to ask in a loud voice.
"The current output of the magic array is 30%, and it is in good running condition, and the degree of force on the keel: low." Alvin's response rang out, because the floating circle acts on the whole of the ship, so the stress between the various parts is very small.
"Good! Keep it up like this and gradually rise in height! Ivan said.
Under the careful operation of the group, the airship finally successfully lifted off, and after strengthening the structural strength of the key parts twice and adjusting the angle shape of the sail three times, everyone finally determined that the airship really had stable flight ability, and the next thing to test was the manned capacity.
Alvin and the others thought that there should not be many people willing to be the first passengers of the airship, but they didn't expect that these people were even more adventurous than they thought (they liked waves). Alvin and the others quickly recruited 5,000 people, and even Leo himself planned to take the airship for this first voyage.
"Master Leo......" A player spoke next to him, as if trying to persuade him, but before he could say anything, Leo stretched out his hand to stop him, "This is my own design, even I don't dare to sit on it, how can I make others have confidence in it?" ”
Ivan was very helpless when he heard this beside him, he knew that once this old man made any decision, even nine cows would not be able to pull it back! However, it is precisely because of his down-to-earth spirit that everyone was able to complete this spaceship to such a point in a short period of time. Seeing the situation here, Alvin whispered a few corpses in a low voice, and sent Duxiao Frost Forest over, so that even if there was any accident, there would be someone to rescue. Of course, Duxiao Shuanglin has no opinion on this proposal, but he feels that Alvin's thoughts have been a little strange recently, and when he talks about the problem of flight, he thinks of himself without thinking for a second, is this change of thinking too natural?
Five thousand players, half sitting on the floor inside the cabin, the other half standing directly on the deck, Ivan commanded, the power furnace and magic inscription power turned to 80%, the sails rose in the wind, the land under their feet gradually disappeared, the airship broke through the clouds, and sailed out to another land.
"Oh!!" The cheers of the crowd rang out, although everyone had ever done an airplane in real life, but flying between the magical floating continents in an airship was a completely different experience, especially when this airship was still built by everyone.
"The magic array output is 63%, the power furnace is stable, and now it starts to accelerate!" With Ivan's voice, the airship began to accelerate, and Leo stood at the front of the deck, letting the cold wind blow on his face, with a solemn expression, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Dreams!" Alvin sighed in his heart, everyone has a time when they are young and frivolous, fearlessly challenges the Arabian Nights, and then suffers failure again and again, and in the end, some people give up, some people succeed, but some people suddenly come back to their senses, and the teenager has turned gray hair......
Alvin had studied the development of technology in the game, and the technology of the mortal race had made astonishing progress in just over two hundred years after the first glimmer of fire was ignited. However, after all, the time was too short and the accumulation was insufficient, and people soon encountered several difficulties that were difficult to overcome, and large flying equipment was one of them.
Of course, there are such things as flying machines in the game, but the large ones have not appeared for a long time. The reason for this situation is actually a bit strange - it is precisely because of the strong individual strength of Pangania.
Large flying machines, what's the use of building such things? Transporting goods? Taming a few large monsters at any time has more load than this thing, and the cost is very low. Drop troops? Too many people can't transport this thing, and only a small number of elites can be transported. But for a master of legendary strength, movement is almost not limited by the terrain, so this thing is still useless most of the time! Not to mention the risks you take when flying! You know, the sky in this world is not safe, all kinds of flying monsters, long-range magic, if you don't get it, you will be knocked down as soon as you fly into the sky.
It is precisely because the prospects are not optimistic that no one has invested in this area, but the things that are related to magic are very expensive, not to mention large equipment, and it is really not surprising that the development of flying machines in Pangeria is slow.
But Leo didn't expect that his dream of being a teenager would usher in a turning point at this time, although it was only to deal with special circumstances, but the player's strong wealth collection ability and hands-on ability were vividly reflected in this work. At this time, Leo felt that many years of depression and regret had been swept away, and decades of hard research had paid off.
