Chapter 1592: Observing Etiquette from a Distance

"Yes, I don't know what kind of tool it is, maybe I can make my own~" Alfie asked with a smile as she took out the demeanor of a mechanical engineering master.

"It's hard for a layman to describe me exactly, so why don't you step over and see for yourself?" suggested Pat.

Alfi looked at Pat seriously with a little surprise, and couldn't help but praise: "The young man is good~Very set~"

"Alfie, why don't we go and see if Rivaside is awake. Seeing that the young Alfi pretended to be old and "leaning on the old and selling the old", Silent couldn't help but suggest.

"Are you talking about the little priest? He's awake now, and he's looking pretty good. Seeing that Silent was helping him speak, Pat immediately reciprocated.

"Really, that's wonderful!" said Serent, overjoyed.

"Let's go, let's go and see that special ritual viewing tool together~" After a little temptation, Alfie immediately changed his mind.

Alfie believed that if they insisted on staying here, the Imperial Military Department would not object, but Pat might not stay here with them. After seeing Pat's performance, Alfie already took a keen interest in him, and intuitively felt that Pat was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and that it was likely to become their enemy in the future. That's why Alfie decided to go back to the foredeck with him and observe more. Alfie never gave up an opportunity to get close to a potential enemy.

......

The foredeck is still bustling with activity, and the celebrities who have been partying all night are still full of energy. The deck was now empty of wine tables and chairs, and the guests were whispering around a strangely shaped machine.

"That's the special tool you were talking about?" Alfie asked, gesturing to the mechanical creature that looked like a huge iron chest.

"Just go and see for yourself. This is a 'remote viewing ceremony' developed by the Imperial War Department for the celebration based on the technology of the Duchy of Bavaria. Pat proudly explained, "With this amazing instrument, even though it is far from the palace, you can still see everything there very clearly, as if it were happening in front of your eyes." ”

"Hehe, I think I kind of understand what this remote viewing ceremony is all about. Alfie pouted disdainfully. He just glanced at it lightly, and he could see the reality: this iron box with a length of ten meters, a height of five meters, and a thickness of three meters, facing the guests was inlaid with a huge crystal, and as long as the angle of the condenser on the back of the iron box was adjusted, the distant scene could be seen from the crystal.

Although it was impossible to see the structure inside due to the iron shell, Alfie immediately concluded that it was just a variant of the telescope. Alfie couldn't help but want to make a stunt, but the Imperial Military Department was still complacent about such a bloated and bulky thing, something like that Augusta had already made, and it was far more convenient and practical than this.

"I wonder how you see this special remote viewing ceremony?" asked Marquis Douglas when he came to Alfie's side and asked aloud.

"It's barely reasonable~ But there are big limitations. Alfie said casually, "For example, now that you have the camera on the platform of the Royal Tower, I think His Majesty the Emperor is about to appear here, but if you want to watch the other scenes at the celebration in a different scene, I'm afraid it's not so convenient, right?"

Marquis Douglas's face darkened a little when he heard this, this is indeed a major flaw in the long-range viewing etiquette, but with the technology currently mastered by the Imperial Military Department, there is no way to reduce the volume at such a long distance. The inevitable consequence of the large size is that it is not easy to adjust the angle of the condenser.

Marquis Douglas has a deeper understanding of Alfie's unsympathetic face, but this is the home field of the Imperial Military Department, is it really good to slap her face naked like this? Alfie obviously doesn't care about this, and when he has the opportunity, he will give full play to his poisonous tongue.

"I didn't expect the Imperial War Department to spend a lot of time and money to build such a laughable machine, and it's no wonder that it took the Imperial Navy a full fifteen years to fully take shape!

"Listen to you, there are similar mechanical creations, which are more convenient than watching the ritual from a distance?" Pat saw the Marquis Douglas's uncertain expression, and immediately spoke up.

"Well, that's a good question. Alfie pulled out a delicate cylinder and handed it to Marquis Douglas, "You might as well try this remote magnifying glass." ”

"It sounds like the name does serve a similar purpose. Marquis Douglas said with self-deprecation. He knew very well in his heart that as long as the long-range magnifying glass could achieve one-tenth of the effect of long-range viewing etiquette, it would be enough to nail the Imperial Military Department to the pillar of shame, after all, the size and convenience of the two were not the same.

"Do you need me to disguise the usage for you?" Sellent asked kindly when he saw that Marquis Douglas turned over the research remote magnifying glass, which seemed to be ungraspable.

"No need. I'll be able to handle this little thing!" said the Marquis of Douglas, righteously refusing. If this still needs to be taught by others, his face will be completely lost. Moreover, he had already figured out a little doorway, and with a slight twist along the edge, the remote magnifying glass was pulled out several sections, bringing the smaller end to his eyes, and he could immediately see a clear picture that had been magnified countless times. What's even more amazing is that with a little adjustment, you can see whatever scene you want.

"In fact, the remote magnifier also has many inconveniences, such as it can only see the scene within the field of vision, and it is very likely to be blocked by obstacles. Alfie smiled and quietly poured a handful of salt into Marquis Douglas's heart.

The shortcomings of the long-range magnifying glass are even more obvious in the long-range viewing etiquette, and the Imperial Military Department has undergone a lot of adjustments to achieve the current "best" viewing effect. Originally, he thought that no one would notice this, but unfortunately, he was irrational for a while, and went to ask for the opinion of Alfie, the poisonous tongue. Faced with the opportunity to be sent to the door, Alfie certainly couldn't let it go, and just stepped on it by the way to relieve the hatred in his heart when he was in the laboratory of the military department.

"Is there any way you can fix this defect?" said Pat at once, humbly, relieving the Marquis of Douglas from his embarrassment.

"There's no good way to do it, and that's a common problem with this kind of remote observation device. Alfie's casual answer made Marquis Douglas's face look a lot better, since everyone had no way to solve it, then the Imperial Military Department was not ashamed.

"But—" Alfie wanted this effect, and the tone of the conversation immediately whetted the appetite of the Marquis Douglas: "I have a more convenient and useful tool, which can completely replace this tool that has long been obsolete." ”
