604 Introspection of the technical route and the premise of large-scale production
The planes of the world of Finn do not need runways, and the construction of an aviation base seems to be much simpler.
Before Li Qilai came, he handed over the planning and design of the aviation base to the deputy chief engineer of the mobile fortress project, Herizal, and this kind of project, which required comprehensive consideration of various factors and integration of various parts into a whole project, was his strength.
At ten o'clock in the evening, Sam mobilized the residents to clean up, and Litchie received the drawings. If you look closely, except that there is no runway, it is almost no different from the air base in the Earth world.
take-off and landing yards, hangars, oil depots, ammunition depots, ......
Repair Factory, Material Factory, Parts Warehouse......
Control towers, air defense positions, hospitals, living facilities......
Based on the actual environment of Cactus Town, Li Qi made slight adjustments to the design.
The integrated service station will be converted into a control tower, and a regiment-level protective barrier will be installed, covering an area with a radius of approximately 1.5 kilometers, encompassing the entire air base.
With the addition of an assembly plant and a test site, Mr. Rich hopes that the base will not only have the ability to repair, but also assemble aircraft directly from components and do various combat readiness tests.
At this time, Sam also finished his work as a resident. One-third of the inhabitants will move to Beta City or villages further south, while the rest will join the air base.
At half past ten, Long Hammer led the elite team of the Infrastructure Construction Committee to arrive, he had already received the drawings from Li Qi, and he started working immediately without a word.
Several crimson tyrants, armed with flamethrower-like weapons, fired a blazing white light at the empty house, which shattered into evenly sized rubble, and in ten minutes, all the buildings around the tower were in ruins.
Then the engineering vehicle entered, and the mechanical arm supported by the six-legged demon turtle car pulled out the magic metal rod, adjusted the length according to the drawing, and stuck it to the ground, oscillating a series of blazing white light waves. Patches of dirt and sand were crushed, and the ground soon collapsed into well-defined areas.
After the excavators entered, these excavators Lan Xiang was much more powerful, and the mechanical arm was held high, projecting a blue translucent palm dozens of meters long and more than ten meters wide, which turned out to be a giant version of the mage's hand. The magicians in the magic car operate the hands of these giant mages to scoop up the crushed earth and rocks in the pit, as flexible and easy as a child playing in the sand.
A huge square pit takes shape, and another magic guide car comes into battle. It stretched out a robotic arm with a gimbal and sprayed up pieces of blue light like a spray gun. Crushed earth and stone condense into hard rock, which is the technique of turning mud into stone.
The previous "grinders" are on the battlefield again, this time they are the grinders, along the walls and the ground, still using the same blazing white light waves, smoothing the craggy rocks.
A large vacuum cleaner enters the pit to suck up the stone dust, and the giant hand of the excavator lowers the steel frame into the bottom of the pit. The team jumped into the pit, welded the steel frame with a flame-ray gun, and soon erected a composite steel frame on the rock base to accommodate various pipelines and lay floor ceilings.
In less than an hour, the underground hangar, which was eighty meters long and fifty meters wide and twenty meters deep, and could accommodate a squadron, completed the main construction. Later, with the addition of a retractable door, it became a covert that was both concealed and sturdy.
Li Qi roughly estimated, just counting the amount of 80,000 earthwork in this underground hangar, and using ten excavators in the earth world, it would take half a month to be busy (according to the standard of 500 cubic meters per day per unit), and now it can be done in less than an hour.
The blue dragon next to him, Halligos, watched the progress of such a project, and let out a groan that was seriously inconsistent with his age and size.
"Can something like this surprise you?"
Karin was puzzled: "Didn't you dragon clan dig out this kind of pit with a few claws?"
"Yes, you have to have a few claws", Haligos said, "you guys get a little faster, not only can you fight in the sky as fast as the dragons, but you can also transform the terrain on the ground as fast as the dragons, and the people who do these things are not of a high level, this world, it has become so fast!"
The ice-blue-haired, more beautiful than the girl's pseudo-lady said faintly: "When I was in the Dragon Domain, I also heard the clan debating whether to learn from other races to go to the main plane to fight for the worship of humans. Some thousand-year-old dragons are full of confidence, feeling that humans are too weak and will definitely compete to worship us, so don't be eager and take the initiative to find humans, but wait for humans to take the initiative to find themselves, and then you can get a satisfactory price. ”
"A 10,000-year-old veteran laughed at those dragons, saying that if they don't cooperate with humans now, humans may not look down on dragons in the future. ”
Some of his words impressed me so much that I made up my mind to come to the Lord's plane. ”
He said that although human beings are weak and their lives are very short, they have any advantage that dragons cannot compare, that is, human beings are always eager to change everything, not only to change themselves, but also to change the world. They always have endless things to do, which gives them endless possibilities, and there are indeed many people who have grown enough to compare to the dragons. ”
Karin squeaked and chewed on a bamboo shoot, and said vaguely, "It's really a standard dragon feeling, but that old-timer of yours has overlooked another strength of humanity, which is unity." What you see now is actually the strength and wisdom of the whole group behind it. “
"On this", Halligos disagreed: "That old-timer said that the greatest problem of human beings is infighting. And unlike the dragons, who fight because of the difference in bloodline, the struggle of humans is not divided into bloodlines. You see, now the Finn Continent is not divided, and you are also fighting the Mad King. “
Even if Karin doesn't have a level of political work, she can say a thing or two on this issue: "Yes, because mortals will gain strength not only from blood, but also from faith, so we will compete to find the most correct faith and find the most correct path." ”
Originally, Karin and Halligos were ready to help, but looking at the progress of the infrastructure committee's team, they couldn't intervene at all, so they had to stay aside and chat.
But when the bell rang and Finn entered the Fourth Age in 1228, the second underground hangar had already taken shape, and at the same time, crushers and excavators dug out the pits of various warehouses and workshops.
In anticipation of being a target for enemies, all buildings are to be buried underground to avoid being destroyed by a few casual breaths.
At this time, everyone was in full swing, and they didn't care about commemorating the New Year. Divine light balls were suspended in mid-air, reflecting the base as bright as day.
Next came Yuzan, who was tasked with converting the integrated service station into a control tower and installing a protective barrier.
The relevant personnel and equipment had already been transported here from the Fortress of Tegjar, and Yuzan had only arrived at this time because he had to adjust the Void Core Crystal of the Enchantment.
The way it arrived was so strange that it made Richie's eyes straighten.
A spherical transparent cockpit rested on a metal shelf, with a large pair of rotors on top, buzzed over, stretched out a tail, and loaded with a pair of small vertical rotors.
It's a helicopter!
Something very similar to the Little Bird helicopter staggered to the ground, and the red Doraemon got out of the cockpit, waving his short arms, and smugly, "I made this thing well, right!?"
"Are you too idle to do?"
Richie is very unhappy, now every magic furnace floating furnace is precious, this guy is still used on this meaningless thing, is he missing the good time playing with Mickey?
"I was about to tell you about this," said Youzan, "This helicopter uses a miracle battery developed by the Mobile Fortress Engineering, and the rotors are not driven by magic bearings, but by electric motors. ”
"Motors?"
The Divine Power Battery had eyebrows, and Li Qi felt very happy, but the thing You Zan said made him feel that he was telling a cold joke: "If you have divine power, what are you doing with that thing?"
"Sure enough, when I told the goddess about this, she reacted the same way as you," You admired, "You all think that problems that can be solved with divine power and magic should never consider other forces." No, strictly speaking, you are very reluctant to use the technology of the Earth world directly. ”
"Well, I admit that there is indeed a bit of such a mentality", Li Qi took it for granted, "but we have done tests, and the gunpowder in the world of Finn is not good, and the powers such as steam, electricity, and so on, are far from being comparable to divine power and magic in all aspects. ”
Yuzan shook its head: "No, there are two very important aspects that transcendent power cannot match these...... Van Libi's. The first is control, to control the extraordinary power, the best way is to use the extraordinary power, but the control of the power is much simpler. “
Li Qi admits this, just like the magic bearing, it is equipped with a reduction gear that is much heavier than the earth world, and it has to use an extremely strong magic guide metal, such as pure gold, otherwise there is no way to eliminate the influence of magic. It's just that there are no troublesome parts such as propeller shafts, and this defect is still tolerable.
The next improvement proposed by the research institute is to allow the driver to directly control the speed with extraordinary power instead of reducing gears, and Li Qi is hesitant to increase the driver's power consumption by this improvement.
"The second point, which is more crucial, is that civilians can also use and manipulate such power. ”
"Of course, but this is not in line with our development direction", Li Qi subconsciously shook his head.
Since there is a transcendent power in the world of Finn, and the supernatural power will obviously exert a productivity far higher than that of the earth world, then the correct direction should be to promote the transcendence of the whole people, rather than using the technology of the earth world to make the civilians exert greater power, which is simply going back.
You Zan's words shocked Li Qi: "To be honest, for a native of the world of Finn like me, the technology of the earth world that can do the same thing without the help of extraordinary power is even more shocking. ”
"I am very grateful to the Goddess and you for opening the door to the earth world for me, the contrast between the two worlds has opened my eyes and made me feel a lot. ”
"The world of Fein and the world of Earth look very different, but I don't think the laws of the two worlds are completely different. The world of Fein may not have the same explosives as Earth, nor the raw materials and laws needed for nuclear weapons, but in some ways, there are still some things in common, such as electricity. ”
"So I was thinking that the world of Fein should have some more dimensions than the world of the earth, so the soul is the real substance, and it has extraordinary power. But on some of the underlying foundational laws, the two worlds are the same. ”
"Since the world of Finn has such a basic law, why should we insist on whether it is a supernatural power or not, and whether it must be stimulated by the soul?"
"For example, in today's living facilities, our lighting is still using divine light. It is very troublesome for civilians to control it, so it is a great waste to have to set up the entire building as a divine power pathway, with volunteers controlling the switches of the entire building, and civilians controlling it through circuit breakers. ”
"Elevator...... I mean, it's the same with elevators, in the mobile fortress project, there is a lot of up and down logistics, and if you use divine power, it's not only expensive, but also troublesome to control, and it's much easier to use electricity. ”
Li Qi didn't quite understand what Yuzan's intention was when he said this at this time, but this topic really made him awe-inspiring, and he hadn't seriously thought about it before. Even if there is something inconvenient for the residents, after all, the starting point is from the medieval era, and I don't think there is much of a problem.
He pinched his chin and said hesitantly: "I probably understand what you mean, do you think that if you directly use electricity as an energy source in many places, you can cross the threshold that will inevitably occur when using extraordinary power?"
"That's right!"
You Zan said excitedly: "Think about it, if we replace many secondary, basic applications with electric energy, we can directly transfer the various technologies of the earth world to use!"
Li Qi felt that something was gradually collapsing in his heart, and he said timidly: "But there is no coal here, and there is no oil......
Before he finished speaking, he came to his senses, and Yuzan also exclaimed, "Oh my God, cardinal, you have completely switched to pilot mode so you are already technically funny?"
"If the magic furnace is connected to a thunderbolt magic array, won't there be electricity? Divine power battery connected to a divine thunder magic array, won't there be electricity? Spiritual power is also fine, no matter what kind of extraordinary power, there is a very direct and convenient application that can be converted into thunder and lightning!"
You Zan pointed to the bird helicopter next to him and said, "This guy's motor is driven by the Divine Thunder Magic Array, of course I spent a lot of effort on the voltage regulator." ”
It's really good! Generate electricity with divine power and magic, don't be too simple!
Li Qi was still muttering, "The energy conversion efficiency must be lower than the power directly generated by the magic circle, right?"
Yu Zan nodded: "Of course, and much lower, but easy to control, easy to use." ”
Li Qi hasn't figured it out yet: "But it's still a departure from our ......"
"I don't think it's a deviation," Yuzan said, "What if the world of Finn was replaced by the world of Earth? Think about it, what would happen if magic suddenly appeared in the world of Earth, the soul was real, and faith could generate power, but most of the original laws remained the same?"
In general, the basic application should not change, after all, it is very convenient and can be manipulated by all living beings. In the high-precision realm, it will be a world ruled by extraordinary powers, because it is powerful enough and wonderful enough.
"Seeking truth from facts ......"
Xiaohong suddenly sent a communication: "I was also very broken when You Zan told me this before, and I felt that I was going backwards, but if I think about it seriously, we can't forcibly ignore the different ways of applying power in order to maintain any painting style, right?"
"And speaking of which, using extraordinary power to generate electricity, and then using electricity as a general energy source that can be used and manipulated by civilians, is still a way to use extraordinary power, and it is a very bullish way. This is not only in line with our principle of seeking truth from facts and adapting measures to local conditions, but also proves that the science of the earth world, I mean the science of scientific materialism, can show more powerful power when applied to the Finn world. ”
Li Qi suddenly realized, indeed, he was too obsessed with the application of extraordinary powers.
The popularization of ordinary energy sources that can be used and manipulated by civilians does not make humanity ignore supernatural powers, let alone conflict with them. On the contrary, because of this fixed variable, the natural differences between the various classes of mortals will be further narrowed due to the difference in supernatural power. But at the same time, the popularization of general energy can make extraordinary power more effective at the group level, and the upper limit will also be pushed higher.
This is a system that complements and promotes each other, and the addition of electricity, a general energy source, will enrich the power dimension of Finn's world.
"This is indeed a very critical issue, but now seems to be the time to talk about it", Li Qi sighed, the enemy was about to attack, and said that he should use extraordinary power to generate electricity......
Wait, a series of thoughts flashed through Li Qi's mind, all related to the things he was having a headache about.
"The cardinal understands?"
Yuzan opened his mouth made of slime gum: "It is precisely because you mentioned that we are now facing production problems and need more comprehensive and in-depth mobilization, that I feel that I must make this idea clear." ”
That's right!
Li Qi's eyes lit up, it is necessary to establish such a technical line in order to fully mobilize production.
Civilians and low-level professionals can use electrically driven machinery to produce, and extraordinary forces will converge to situations that require greater efficiency and power, and such a comprehensive mobilization can stimulate maximum productivity.
"It's a hurry, but thank you, you're really impressive," Li Qi expressed his heartfelt thanks to You Zan "so that our thinking is much clearer, and we have more confidence to solve the problems we are facing." ”
It is rare to be praised by Li Qi like this, and You Zan is so happy that the small round ball behind his buttocks shakes rapidly: "This is my job, I am a member of the Central Committee, the chief member of the Commission of Science and Technology." ”
It is also regrettable: "It's a pity that I didn't become the director of the Heroic Spirit Branch of the Kingdom of God......"
Cheer up again and say, "I've actually done a lot of research on power applications, like myself. ”
A pillar emerged from the middle of its big head, stretched out into a pair of rotors, and in the humming sound, a huge Doraemon slowly rose into the air.
You Zan said proudly, "Look, I've made this thing a reality." ”
Li Qi was first surprised, then suspicious.
Since the rotor is electrically driven, it means that it is very light.
"Youzan, tell me, where did the twenty kilograms of crystalline titanium go?"
Li Qi said coldly: "The material consumption list says that it is a puppet structure strength test, this puppet, can't it be your body?"
Yuzan hurriedly manipulated the overhead propeller and flew away, shouting as he flew, "Uh-uh...... I'm using my body as a testing platform, and it's definitely not for public property or private use!Ah, ——! leakage, leakage!"
With a crackle, Li Qi spit out a whip in his hand and whipped it on the flying Dora Emon, and the puppet crackled in the air and exploded the electric sparks, screaming in horror.
Li Qi shook his head: "You still have too many things to learn in electricity, you have to start with insulation first." ”
