Chapter 500 Technological Gaps

"I don't know if we have gained anything from the recent battle with the navy of Chola Island," Xing Chenmeng said inquiringly, instead of continuing the argument on the previous topic. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Hey, can His Highness move to our engineering office," said the Governor of Kellyon with a sigh.

"Engineering Institute!" Xingchenmeng asked, confused.

In a seemingly ordinary hill, Xingchenmeng and the others came to a dead-end alley, next to a cliff not far away, and below the cliff was the unfathomable sea, Xingchenmeng looked at the Kelly Governor's Mansion behind him, and the Kelly Governor's Mansion released a string of five-colored magic bullets into the sky, and only three red, yellow, and blue magic bullets still lit up the sky after the successive explosions.

Just as the three-color magic bullet slowly fell, the boulder in the cul-de-sac in front of Xingchenmeng suddenly cracked through it, and a pair of soldiers ran out of it and separated from it.

Xingchenmeng pretended to be surprised and looked at everything in front of him, as early as when he entered this dead end, Xingchenmeng had already used his soul power to explore the vicinity, and found that there was a huge hole behind the boulder in front of him, and he vaguely sensed that many people were moving.

"Please, Your Highness," said the Governor of Kellyon, looking at the surprised Star Masked with pride.

Walking into the huge cave, the temperature is obviously lower than the outside, and it is somewhat similar to the air raid shelter on Earth during World War II, which is reinforced with rocks, which is very safe.

Accompanied by the Governor of Kelly and the others, Xingchenmeng came to a huge underground dock, and to Xingchenmeng's amazement, there were hundreds of ironclad rune ships built by Sienpus in it, but these warships were seriously damaged, and even many of them had been broken into several pieces, and some were only a little bit of the upper body or part of the lower body.

"This—" Xingchen Meng said in amazement, looking at the ruins of the battleship in front of him.

"Your Highness, these are all the battleships of Chola that have been sunk in our waters," said the Governor of Kellyon, proudly.

"It's all made of steel, how does such a heavy cast iron ship float in the sea," Xingchenmeng said, lifting a part of the bow of a ship that was taller than himself, trying to weigh the weight of it, pretending to be incredulous.

"This, Your Highness, we have been studying for a long time," said the Governor of Kellyon, ashamed.

"Will we be able to build these ships?" asked Xingchenmeng again.

"No, there are too many differences in scientific and technological capabilities, and many of our experts have not come up with the way to do it, let alone imitate it, and we have not even figured out how these iron can float on the surface of the sea and how to drive it, there are no giant oars and no sails, but the speed is extremely fast. ”

"Are there any captives?" the sailors on the other side should know how these things move," Xing Chenmeng asked faintly.

"Well, Your Highness, we haven't caught a single enemy alive," said the Governor of Kellyon, bowing his head.

"It's fast, and it's iron, don't you have any ideas?" asked Xingchenmeng sternly.

"Your Highness, it is clear that the construction of these warships is extremely complex, and it will take us decades to study them even if we want to, and the cost of each of these warships is sky-high, and the production volume is very limited," the Governor of Kelly said in a whisper.

"A small island of Churo can have so many iron warships, but our dignified Fengxue Empire does not have these warships, so it is very passive," Xingchen Meng said distressedly.

"We don't have the ability to build these iron warships, but we've made some new discoveries," said the Governor of Kellyon.

"What a discovery!" Xingchenmeng was suddenly stunned and asked hurriedly.

"Look," Governor Kellyon led the group to a large object covered by a cloth, and then violently slammed off the cover, but shocked the audience.

"Is this?" asked one of the marshals excitedly, and even Xingchenmeng and Vivio frowned at the sight of such a thing.

"This is the battleship cannon we developed based on the shipboard magic crystal cannon on the wreck of the iron battleship, and their design has excited our researchers, and it has tripled the range and accuracy of our magic crystal cannon, and this is only a preliminary research," said the Governor of Kellyon excitedly.

"Double, Kelion, you're not kidding," Emperor Ziqin said in shock.

"Lord Ziqin, I really didn't joke with you, everyone knows that the magic crystal cannon equipped on our warship is difficult to fix, the hit rate is poor, and the firing range is only two nautical miles, but according to our research on the magic crystal cannon on the battleship on Chola Island, we found that their magic crystal cannon can not only be firmly fixed on the ship, it has a reliable design base, and their magic crystal cannon can shoot at all angles, and the range is long," Kelion said excitedly.

"Tell the point," said Solo the Great, a member of the royal line.

"Yes, it's actually very simple, the reason for the elongated barrel of their magic crystal cannon, although we can't use their magic crystal cannon for shooting experiments, but we are very pleasantly surprised to find that imitating their magic crystal cannon shooting can effectively increase our range," Kelion said.

"But we are still much, much different from the range of the Magic Crystal Cannon of the Choro Island Navy," Xingchen Meng said, shaking his head.

"That's true, but the number of the fleet on Chola Island is less than one percent of ours, even if we use wooden ships, we can break through the defenses of the Chola Navy, and if our warship magic crystal cannon is farther away, I believe we can inflict even greater losses on the other side," said the Governor of Kellyon.

"How many ships have you lost by destroying these ships?" said Xingchenmeng with a question.

"・・・・・・" was silent.

"How much is the loss?" Xing Chenmeng asked strongly.

"1:457 of which we are 457 and many strong men with the assistance," said the Governor of Kellyon unnaturally.

"Add to that the loss of the three Great Emperors!" Xingchenmeng asked.

"・・・・・・" The crowd fell silent again.

"Yes, the prince and nephew, after a big battle on the day of our battle, the other party only dispatched six emperors to hold us back, and several other emperors all dealt with our half-step emperors and emperor-level and saint-level martial artists, and the losses below were not small," Emperor Solo of the royal branch said again.

"Isn't it true that even if the five legions take Chola Island, there will be not much left," Xingchenmeng said.

"That's true, but if we take Chola Island, we can use it as a springboard to attack the Xingwu Continent, even if the losses are huge, the empire will send other legions to His Highness," Emperor Ziqin smiled slightly.

"How long will it take to send other legions to build a teleportation array that can be figured out here, how long will it take to go to Chola Island with warships, and even if Chola Island is captured, how will we defend Chola Island if the other party has a large-scale counterattack inland," Xingchenmeng said questioningly.
