Change a ...... Look......

Maggie looked at the "Princess Highness" in front of her with a stiff expression, she was used to the conventional way of thinking, she couldn't keep up with Rebecca's rhythm at this moment, and only after confirming that she heard correctly, she felt a little annoyed.

Change one and show her!

Is this treating yourself as some kind of rare animal, as some kind of interesting landscape?!

She has a certain resistance to her dragon form because of her physical deformity, and at this moment she heard Rebecca's speech that sounded like a brainless request from a noble child, Maggie felt that the veins in her whole body were beating, but reason made her forcibly restrain the anger in her heart, after all, the girl in front of her was the de jure heir of this nascent empire, and even her own mistress needed to be polite when facing this princess, so she suppressed her emotions and tried her best to ask back in a calm tone:" Why do you want to see my dragon form? ”

It's a pity that the rough-lined Rebecca didn't feel Maggie's mood change at all - if she could feel the mood change of others, she wouldn't have been beaten every once in a while because of the head iron - the girl just continued to smile happily with a bright face: "I want to fly too!" ”

Maggie's subsequent words were all condensed into six dots and a question mark: "......? ”

Then, in the eyes of the black dragon lady in an even more confused and stunned manner, Rebecca suddenly pulled out a large scroll out of nowhere, and shook it open in front of Maggie's eyes with a bang—it was a hand-drawn mechanical design with a large number of rune array patterns.

In the next second, Rebecca directly spread the drawings on the ground, and explained with great interest in front of Maggie, who looked confused: "Look at this, this is not an awl, this is a flying machine designed by me, and the circle below it is called an anti-gravity ring, which can provide a lift, it has been done, it is very stable, and then next to it is a magic wing...... You know the magic wings, right? It's also on the battleship, and this is the version of the aircraft I designed...... Hey, are you squatting? Can you see clearly when you are standing? ”

Maggie thought about the etiquette of the servants she had mastered, including how the nobles should accompany them when they were standing, and how they should accompany the nobles when they were sitting, but what if the nobles squatted down in the open space in the middle of the courtyard...... There seems to be no corresponding rule......

Because nobles with normal brains won't squat on the ground in public!

After thinking about it for a moment, Maggie crouched down beside Rebecca - Rebecca spoke first, anyway......

"That's right," Rebecca glared at Maggie, her fingers continuing to move over the strange conical machine on the drawing, "I'm referencing the elves' anti-gravity technology, their levitation spells are much more efficient than humans, but I still haven't figured out how to make this thing move freely." The anti-gravity ring can only provide lift, or strictly speaking, it can only provide reverse gravity, which is not the same as repulsion trick - if you tilt the force field of the anti-gravity ring, it will not gain an inclined propulsion, but will directly lose control, and I hit the prototype to the ceiling last time......

"I also studied how the Elven Star Sanctuary flies, but that thing is so complicated, it's a device called a 'wave engine', and each propulsion group is bigger than a house! The point is that there are still many structures in it that even the elves can't understand, and they can't be disassembled, it is said that it is their ancestral technology, and no one will repair it for a long time, so it can be said that one is dismantled and one is wasted, I originally wanted to say let them dismantle one and try it, but it doesn't seem to be suitable......"

Maggie suddenly said in her heart: You just asked me to change one to see, it's appropriate?

Rebecca, on the other hand, was still babbling, as long as it came to the technical field, her words seemed to be endless: "...... I found a mage who knows how to fly, but their flying spell is simply 'by feeling', and it can't be converted into a machine at all, and I also designed a way of 'fireball pulse propulsion', but my aunt vetoed it, saying that it was easy to blow up my own people, and I had a magic technician under my hand who also thought of a plan to use wind runes to create air currents to propel, but it barely worked, but the power was pitiful, and the test machine was simply crawling...... But then again, I always feel that this airflow propulsion solution, although it doesn't seem to be very useful now, may be a good thing in the future, if it can solve the power ......."

Maggie listened to Her Royal Highness the princess talking farther and farther, and had already reached a realm that she didn't understand at all, so she hurriedly interrupted beside her: "Your Highness, what you said...... Does it have anything to do with me? ”

"Huh? You ......" Rebecca was stunned for a moment, and then she reacted, "Ah yes, it's related, it's related!" How do you dragons fly? ”

"...... with wings, of course"

"But your wings don't provide enough lift or propulsion, do they?" Rebecca's face was full of curiosity, "Your wings are indeed big, but your size is larger, and more importantly, I have seen how your dragons accelerate and brake, it is a blue dragon, when accelerating there is obviously a force field on the edge of the wings, and then a magic glow passes, and in an instant it accelerates to the extent that the eyes can't catch up, and in the process she only flappes her wings...... This can't be the speed you can get with a flap of your wings. ”

Maggie looked at Rebecca in amazement, she had almost forgotten the first sentence of "change a look", and she realized that the reckless princess in front of her had no malice at all, let alone an unreasonable request made by a hot head, she was studying something, something that she could not understand, but was of great significance—and this princess had devoted herself to these studies.

"I've heard Master Carmel mention that dragons don't fly entirely by flapping their wings and flapping the air," Rebecca didn't care about Maggie's expression, but continued with great interest, "You're actually paddling 'magic', creating some kind of force field, and then using the force field to glide between the ripples of magic at breakneck speed, so you can fly very, very high, even above clouds where the air is very thin, and that's a height that no human mage or bird can reach......

"I'd like to create a device that glides through ripples of magic, based on the way dragons fly, if your magic system is compatible with rune logic...... Maybe I'll be able to fly too! ”

Suddenly, Maggie remembered a phrase she had read in a book in her hometown: dragons could soar through the sky on waves of magic, even reaching the end of the sky and reaching the top of the atmosphere, where they were only one step away from the planet, so they were entitled to be called the masters of the sky - because under this sky, no creature could fly higher than them.

She took a light breath and nodded slowly: "You're right, dragons really don't rely on agitating air to fly, or rather, agitating the air is just an auxiliary way for us to adjust our direction and perceive the environment, and our real flight power is magic......"

As these words fell softly, the black-haired maid raised her left hand slightly, and in the air behind her, a huge black wing suddenly appeared from nothing, swinging slightly in mid-air.

The giant wings were smaller than the ones she had ever been fully dragonized, but they still made Rebecca's eyes widen.

Rebecca saw many faintly floating magical runes on the edge of the black giant wing, and between the skeleton and veins of the giant wing, there were also lines of magic faintly emerging.

"Turning into a dragon in the courtyard of the castle would make a big mess, but I can project some of my limbs," Maggie said slowly, feeling a little impulsive, after all, this is the courtyard of Silver Castle, although there are no people around now, there must be many guards and squires who can see what is happening here, but she is enjoying it a little...... Aside from the one time she left her hometown, she hadn't done anything impulsive for too long, "You can watch it if you want, but it may not be complete." ”

Yes, the runes on Maggie's wings are incomplete.

Rebecca only glanced at it, and realized that there was something wrong with the black dragon's wings—some of its edges were mutilated, and the main skeleton was also showing signs of atrophy and deformity, as if it had suddenly stopped growing halfway through development, and then was brutally destroyed by some external force, this miserable appearance...... It's no wonder Maggie has a grudge against her dragon form.

And this mutilated wing undoubtedly led to the mutilation of the rune array.

Rebecca's gaze swept between the runes and the mana patterns before slowly withdrawing, "I see ......"

Maggie waved her hand, retracting some of the projected limbs, and then shook her head: "Sorry, I only have these broken things, so if you want to study the dragon's ability to fly, it's best to find a real, healthy dragon, I'm not a qualified subject." ”

“…… The Ancestor said that it was best not to do business with dragons unless necessary, they are picky and greedy," Rebecca said with a serious face, "and I don't think ordinary dragons would be happy to accompany me in research, right?" ”

"Picky and greedy......" Maggie blinked, and suddenly couldn't help but laugh out loud, laughing very happily, "Haha, what you said is so good, it is indeed picky and greedy...... And those proud healthy dragons really shouldn't be happy to accompany you to do research, after all, they are to be studied......"

"I think it's enough to have these rune samples of yours," Rebecca continued, "any rune array that can operate has a certain self-explanatory and self-replenishing property, and this is a common reference property used by the Rune Research Institute to eliminate invalid structures in traditional circles. I'll go back and ask Jenny to borrow a few experts, and maybe we'll be able to complete all your missing runes - and those parts that are stacked and distorted due to deformities should be repaired as well. Theoretically, as long as we can restore 70% of the runes, we can build the first generation of usable prototypes, and the machines and equipment are all things that need to be used and slowly improved......"

Speaking of this, Rebecca thought for a moment, and suddenly became happy: "And maybe we can make a set of things that you can use!" ”

"Can I use it?" Maggie didn't react for a moment, "What's that?" ”

"Try to fix your wings," Rebecca thought whimsical, "people can use prosthetics when they are disabled, it's inconvenient, but they can stand up, maybe we can build you mechanical wings, not very good, but at least they can fly on your own - I heard you have to rely on extra air currents or glide off cliffs to take off, right?" If we succeed, you might be able to take off on flat ground on your own!! ”

Maggie's eyes widened, and she looked at Rebecca a little stunned.

What a whimsical and optimistic imagination – how many years had she not dreamed of it?

After being stunned for a few seconds, Rebecca's voice suddenly came from the side: "Hey, Maggie, why don't you speak?" Scared by my thoughts? ”

"No, I just ...... Well, I'm a little scared," Maggie said a little confused, she felt that she had managed to maintain her calm temperament for many years was quickly shattered in front of this maverick princess, but she didn't have the slightest regret, "Your idea is very bold, but it is not easy to achieve, the runes on our bodies are not quite the same as the runes you humans are used to, they are the basic elements of the dragon language......"

"We've already cracked the rune language of the elves, and we don't mind more dragon runes, no matter what the system is, at least the mathematics is unified," Rebecca said quite confidently, "And as far as I know, the earliest magic of human beings was created by referring to the patterns on the monsters in the natural world, and the original 'ancestor runes' are the natural patterns on the monsters, since our ancestors have already succeeded in monsters once, why can't we modern people who have mastered modern tools succeed again?" ”

Maggie looked at Rebecca for a while, and couldn't help but smile: "You are almost treating dragons and monsters equally, if other dragons hear it, I'm afraid they will fight." ”

“…… Wow! ”

"But don't worry, I know you didn't mean to."

"Oh, that's fine," Rebecca quickly patted her chest, "Don't mind, I sometimes talk a little brainless, my aunt and ancestors usually keep talking, saying that sooner or later I will be beaten if I talk like this, but I just can't change it......"

Maggie looked at Rebecca with a smile - it was such a lovely girl, she had thought she was a brainless and rude arrogant aristocratic child, it was incredible.

"Then would you like to come with me back to Cecil City?" Rebecca Balabala continued, "My research facilities are over there......

"I'll get permission from my mistress first," Maggie pondered, "and as far as I know, she'll stay in the north for the time being. ”

"Then I'll go tell her~ just when you agree!"
