The two researchers had already prepared and used the feather falling technique to slowly descend, both of them looking frustrated.

"Overhaul it, pull out everything that can be used", said the person in charge, "put the magic furnace on it and test it." ”

"The magic furnace weighs two tons, can you carry it?"

"A third-level floating crystal is not good, either use a higher level or engage in an array, but this involves a balance problem, which is equivalent to making a small mobile fortress. ”

"The flying magic circle also has to be changed to a higher level, otherwise it won't be able to push. ”

The researchers used the mage's hands to dismantle the damaged car, and there was a lot of discussion.

The round puppet came to the person in charge and said in a voice from Ewen Tiwan: "Herp, judging from the existing conditions, whether you insisted on using a low-level magic circle before, or now switching to a magic furnace, you can't build the magic flying boat you want. ”

"I ...... In fact, I understand, I just don't want to be reconciled", Help King, the head of the traffic boat sub-project of the floating system project team, sighed: "What I want to build is not a magic flying boat that is assembled with high-grade floating crystals and magic crystals, as well as high-grade magic guide materials, and only the aristocratic lords can afford to use magic flying boats, but magic flying boats that are as cheap as magic guide guns and can be made in large quantities." ”

"But now there are not enough conditions in all links, floating crystals are too rare, and low-level floating crystals can't support heavy flying boats. The magic furnace has solved the problem of energy supply array, and there is no need to use high-grade magic crystals, but without cheap magic steel, the magic furnace can't lose weight, and the flying boat has become heavier, which is a complete vicious circle. ”

Help said in a tangled way: "It's a pity that Wright, Carmen and Leonard have all left, their research on the float ship and the flying boat is more in-depth than mine, with them, maybe they can ......"

Speaking of this, he shook his head in self-defeat: "With Yi Wen Tiwan here, our wisdom can be added together, and it should far surpass them, so we can't get anything, it seems that the conditions are really not enough." ”

"There is much more to it than that," said Ivan Tiwan, "and there are a lot of basic theoretical laws and various data, such as the relationship between the lift and magic of the floating crystal, the specific amount of magic provided by the magic furnace, and what kind of things can be achieved in various situations." With this, we can make accurate calculations, and we don't have to start from scratch to get a general idea of the situation in advance. ”

Helpe felt the same way: "Yes, now we only know that the third-level magic furnace can power spells at level three and below, and the same is true for level six, and we also know how much the strength of each level of magic power is, but we have no idea what we can do at all, so we can only make things out for experiments." ”

"This problem has had a great impact on the progress of research, and if it can be discovered, it will not only greatly speed up the progress, but also reduce a lot of unnecessary consumption, and I have reported it to the above, hoping to strengthen the power of basic research," said Ewen Tiwan. ”

She returned to the project: "If it is only a sub-project of the traffic boat of the mobile fortress project, the transitional plan you proposed at the earliest is still no problem. After all, the fortress is only prepared to be equipped with a few dozen traffic boats, and its purpose is only to transport important personnel and materials in the event that the teleportation system fails, so the use of high-grade floating crystals and spar circles is allowed. ”

Help shook his head: "Then I don't need to lead this project team, I can find any magician to complete it." ”

His sidekick rang, and it was Artur looking for him.

"Temporary transport boats?"

Listening to Artur's request, Help said: "If you use a fifth-level floating crystal, there will definitely be no problem in transporting a dozen people, and the speed is ...... The highest is only about 100 kilometers. If it's faster, the mana impact will accumulate too much, and it will clash with the floating magic circle, so you need a larger magic scatterer, and the weight will be ......."

"Okay, I'll make it right away, plus testing, and it can be completed in two days at most. No problem, it's not much different from the floating car used by the noble lord. ”

Artur added: "There is another thing, the cardinal decided to set up a separate research institute for magic guided aircraft. This institute has nothing to do with the Mobile Fortress project, you need to transfer your project team, and if you are willing to go there, you can get the traffic boat in place and take everyone to a new place. ”

Help's eyes widened, and he said continuously: "Of course I do, how can I not want to?"

Artur emphasized: "Since it has nothing to do with the Mobile Fortress project, is it okay without the help of Ewen Tiwan?"

Help froze again, shouting in his heart what is going to do!?

Artur's words also make sense, Ewen Tiwan is only in charge of the mobile fortress project, and the magic guide aircraft has nothing to do with this project, of course he can't rely on this powerful lady anymore.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "No problem!"

Do ~ what you love to do, that's the first thing. As for whether it is cool or not, that is secondary.

At the end of the correspondence, Help said, "It's a pity, Evan Tiwan, that I can't work with you anymore." ”

The puppet projected an image of the girl and said with a smile, "I've also received a notification, it's okay, you can still get my help." The notice says that all research materials for the Mobile Fortress project are still open to the Wizard Aircraft Research Institute, but you will need to find my assistant Allen, who will provide you with the information. ”

Help was overjoyed: "Great. ”

..................

"That's not good......

In the half-ruined city renamed Terros, Richie rubbed his forehead in his tent.

Aurora sent another message, and attached the report of the Development Planning Committee, the Research Institute and the Magic Working Committee, based on these circumstances, Li Qi felt that if the Fei Gong could not achieve a major technological breakthrough in a short period of time, the advantage over the Kist Kingdom would not be as obvious as before, and it would pay a great price if it was a big fight.

The goal is daunting, with little hope in sight.

Originally, the plan was still very smooth, and the 596 project was used to promote the mobile fortress project, and if it was done step by step, there would be initial results by next year, that is, in March 1228, when it would be much less difficult to launch the Kost offensive again.

But on the one hand, Belino has already begun to act, and can only push Romross to hurry up. On the other hand, Xiaohong was making trouble in Heavenly Mountain, and the Fei Gong was thus blocked by the trade blockade of the Temple of Commerce, which worsened the external environment of the Fei Gong.

This time, Li Qi didn't think Xiaohong was too reckless, she not only fished back an army of chaos angels in Heavenly Mountain, but also exposed the true face of the goddess of commerce, and gained a clear vision at the strategic level of the gods, this time she was so reckless and reasonable.

The price paid for this can only be borne by Li Qi at the level of mortals.

The blockade of the Temple of Commerce deprived the Fei Gong of the source of all kinds of materials and materials, especially the magic steel, floating crystal, high-grade magic crystal, and divine crystal, and also lost the export market.

Fortunately, Romulus doesn't care about the deterioration of Richie's relationship with the Temple of Commerce, he himself hates the Temple of Commerce, and is determined to follow the example of Godfall and promote his own currency. His agreement with Richie was to barter, and the lack of goods would be compensated for by him, and the area under his rule would become a new market for the Phillips.

As an emerging force that has a good chance of ruling West Fein in the future, the Temple of Commerce probably does not want to offend Romroth, but will instead list him as a target for fighting. Therefore, the Templar Shrine should only adopt a competitive attitude towards his trade with Richie, rather than strictly enforcing the ban on East Finn.

The Temple of Commerce may be able to unify a large number of East Fein's magic workshops through the dragon merchants, and provide Romulth with the magic weapons he desperately needs in a short time. It includes 200,000 Finney Magic Guns, 100,000 Automatic Magic Guns, 20,000 Magic Fire Bombs, 5,000 Magic Fire Tubes, 1,000 Quadruple Magic Cannons, and 200 Nine-Rate Magic Cannons.

But those guys couldn't find an advanced military expert who could match the Legion of the Fernando to help Romeros reorganize the Legion and teach them to use these weapons to fight a new war. There is no way to launch an invasion of the kingdom of Koster from other directions, or help Romerth conquer the West Feen Kingdoms.

Richie wasn't worried that the Temple of Commerce would break his agreement with Romrose, he was only worried about whether he would be able to keep his promises. Now it seems that not only has there been a problem with the attack on Koster, but even the delivery of arms to Romulus is not enough security.

You can't let Romulos find a way to pick up the goods at Godfall Plateau by himself, after all, the two sides are partners, not just a buyer-seller relationship. For Romrose, who also did not have a large number of floating ships and lacked the means of teleportation, his difficulties were even greater.

"Grasp the main contradictions, outline the lead, break through one point, and drive the overall ......"

Li Qi pondered and pondered carefully.

The current situation can only rely on technology to break the game, and can the magic flying boat he chose take on this heavy responsibility?

The reason why the magic flying boat was chosen as the breakthrough point was because air supremacy became a serious issue. Belino's side is about to have a large number of floating ships, and counting the dragon forces recruited, will have absolute air supremacy in the upcoming war.

This not only posed a great military threat to the Fernando Communists, but also severely affected trade with Romros. After all, the Fei Gong has also lost the ability to transmit long-distance on a large scale, and can only rely on air channels to maintain fast logistics links with Romulus.

How to fight for air supremacy, Li Qi felt that the Fei Gong could not follow the old path.

There is more than one old way, and the flying monsters and even the dragon clan are of course the oldest, and there is no hope for this fee. The few griffons and eagles that were used for border relief, search, and emergency contact. Of course, not to mention the dragon clan, no matter whether the little dragon girl can become a dragon or not now, he can't ride it.

The next oldest is the Finn tradition, which is the floating ship. Not only Belino, but even the Imperial Air Force, which Theresia is preparing, is also dominated by floating ships.

Floating ships are bulky, slow in movement, and consume a lot of resources, especially human resources.

In the case of the floating ship owned by Captain Elon, it takes at least one hero-level transcendent to activate it. For such a big target, it can't be said that there is no strong enough protection, so there must be a hero to maintain a strong shield. If you don't have enough firepower, you're sorry for its size, so you have to have a hero to preside over the powerful magic cannon.

A combat-ready floating ship must be equipped with at least three to five heroes and hundreds of strong men. The Fei Gong's legion is now only more than 20,000 people, and even if it can build a large number of floating ships, there are not so many people.

In Li Qi's eyes, the biggest flaw of the floating ship is slowness, and slowness is the original sin!

Finn's fastest floating ship now has a speed of less than 300 kilometers per hour, which is the speed of an ordinary helicopter, and it is also a small floating ship that specifically emphasizes speed. Big guys with more than 1,000 tons can travel at speeds of less than 100 kilometers per hour.

If you can immediately create a magic flying boat that is as fast as an airplane, use fighter jets to compete for air supremacy with Belino's floating ships, and use transport planes to barter with Romulus, the situation will be enlivened.

That's right, that's right, it's the magic boat! As long as you make the magic boat, you will definitely reproduce the shock of the magic guide gun to the world of Fein!

This has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I once dreamed of entering Beihang University to engage in aircraft design......

After a second round of reflection, Richie confirmed that his decision was fine.

He has asked Artur to separate the Mobile Fortress's transport boat project and build a new Magic Guided Aircraft Research Institute, with the aim of recreating the magical flying ship of the Storm Islands.

The reason why Ivan Tiwan was not involved in this research was because Ewen Tiwan was involved in too many technical fields, and according to the principle of "you can't put all your eggs in one basket", the Magic Flying Boat project had to be independent of the Mobile Fortress project.

The problem is that after the current situation report on the technical aspects, Li Qi felt that he could no longer create a miracle like he had done in the beginning, pulling Artur to draw a few pictures and making a magic guide gun.

The Storm Islands' magic ships, like the floating ships, rely on the original layer mask to provide spells, and there is no way to reproduce them in the main plane.

Now Li Qi already knows that the general floating ship created by the Mage Federation uses a floating crystal that is inferior to the floating core crystal, plus a flying magic array, instead of the floating nuclear crystal and flying magic array used by the old floating ship.

Previously, Fei Gong also got some floating crystals in Lion King City, and this thing also has a lot of mineral deposits in the main plane, and it is not a particularly rare material.

However, the Floating Crystal is not only much weaker in terms of floating power, but also needs an external Floating Circle to work. Because of the long operation time, the accumulated mana impact will conflict with other magic circles, and the addition of a scattering demon further increases the weight of the aircraft.

If you use high-grade floating crystals, you can also build a magic flying boat.

Richie has just arrived in Finn...... No, according to Xiaohong, when the soul first awakened, many of the aristocratic cars I saw were this kind of thing. The floating carriage that Aurora once used, although it couldn't fly, could levitate forward, in principle it was the same thing,

It's a pity that just like the old magic crossbow before the magic guide gun, it is not something that can be standardized for mass production and large-scale equipment.

Li Qi also considered transplanting the propeller planes and jets of the Earth world directly, but in the world of Finn, this kind of flying machine that relies entirely on interacting with air has a fatal flaw, and only a low-level wind spell is needed to make the aircraft lose control.

If you fly high enough and fast enough, the enemy may not have the right opportunity to release the spell, but the enemy will only use human flesh to cast spells in a daze, and don't know how to develop a special magic channel?

Li Qi could only regretfully give up this route and focus on the magic guide technology route.

However, there were several bottlenecks along this route, and in order to reduce the cost of manufacturing and use, it was necessary to use the magic furnace, which was the first technological crystallization of the Mobile Fortress project.

Thinking of the whirling magic furnace, Li Qi really loved and hated.

Not to mention the bulkiness, this thing has to smoke, it's like a steam engine!
