Chapter 22 Stay Safe
In fact, the new set of magical protective equipment worn by the guards and the magic car anti-collision protection device that Camby and others are working on are all from the same system, and the cause is naturally from the previous car accident in Sevigny.
Originally, when designing the magic car, Xu Yi used to install a device similar to the protective airbag in those cars on the earth to protect the driver, but due to the progress of research and development and some other problems, the first batch of magic cars were not equipped with this device.
And from Xu Yi's point of view, the maximum speed of the magic car is only 60 kilometers per hour, even if the two cars collide, it is unlikely to cause any serious damage, and the fact is just as he expected.
In the more than one month since the launch of the magic car, there have indeed been several car accidents in Bangta City, but because the speed of the car is not fast at all, and the new flying chamber of commerce uses new alloy steel when making the magic car, and the materials are extremely strong, so the consequences of the accident are not very strict, as long as the seat belt is fastened, at most the chest is strangled by the seat belt.
But the car accident at Severny was different.
At that time, because Baron Bilier was driving a magic locomotive while drunk, he kept the highest speed and hit it head-on, so the impact was actually quite strong.
Although neither Severny nor Baron Bilier had any accidents in this accident, but thinking that even a noble royal highness like Sevigny almost had an accident, Xu Yi ordered the Magic Research Institute and the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center to study the anti-collision protection device of the magic car in order to avoid a similar accident.
As a result, during the development of the anti-collision protection device for the Magic Car, a human engineer talked about it with a human friend who served as a chamber of commerce guard. Whim. I think it might be nice to use the same device in armor. Thus was finally born, and the magical protective armor that was now commonly installed on the caravan guards by Xu Yi was born.
This kind of small accident in the development process may have been encountered often on Earth before, and it is not unusual.
After proposing some of his own anti-collision protection devices for the magic car to Camby and others, Xu Yi came to the Magic Research Institute not far from the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center.
As soon as he entered the door, he bumped into Akali running out in a hurry.
Xu Yi was caught off guard, and was directly bumped into her arms by her.
"Ahh "It scared the hell out of me. β
Xu Yi was a little funny: "Obviously, you bumped into me, okay? Go ahead. What are you doing here? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"I'm going to ......" Akali rolled her eyes, but she grinned and changed her words, "I won't tell you." β
Xu Yi suddenly laughed: "I said, you sneak outside during working hours, and you dare to hide it from me, the president, don't you want to be confused, right?"
"What, Lord Grown, do you want to fire me?" said Akali, fearless.
Xu Yi shook his head helplessly, waved his hand and said, "Okay, if you don't want to sue sΓΉ, I'll get out of here as soon as possible, don't be an eyesore here." β
Akali smiled and saluted Xu Yi: "Order! Report to the elder." I'm going to get out of here!"
Watching Akali trot all the way out of the Magic Research Institute, Xu Yi rolled his eyes. Head straight to Evita's private research room.
"Akali, she must have gone to visit her brother. Evita glanced at Xu Yi and said with a smile: "Her brother seems to be going to take a driver's license test today, she is not at ease, so she asked me for leave yesterday, saying that she was going to the scene to cheer for her brother today." I don't dare to sue you, probably because I'm afraid you'll scold her for not working well. β
"I care about my brother, why am I scolding her. Xu Yi shook his head and said. "Speaking of which...... His brother seems to be only 15 years old this year, and he is actually going to take the driver's license test? If he does, what does he want to do?
"Hmm. According to Akali, her brother admired you very much after meeting you, and said that he would work under you so that he could be in the same chamber of commerce as Akali. After getting his driver's license, he seems to be planning to enter the transport brigade of our chamber of commerce and strive to become a freight driver. β
"Is he the transport brigade of our Chamber of Commerce that he can enter casually if he wants to?" Xu Yi frowned slightly. "He's too young after all, and I wouldn't allow such a kid to run outside all day in a freight magic locomotive. β
"Fifteen years old isn't too young, right?" Evita looked at Xu Yi in surprise. "In many parts of the kingdom, fifteen-year-old boys are already able to get married. β
"Married at the age of fifteen?" Xu Yi scoffed. "At an age when you don't know anything, what kind of marriage do you get. β
Evita looked at Xu Yi in surprise: "Adult, then what age do you think you should consider getting married?"
"How so...... At least it should be your age, right?" Xu Yi glanced at Evita, his heart moved, and he wanted to ask Evita if he had considered this matter, but suddenly remembered that Steele had mentioned that Evita also had a more ** attitude towards himself, so the words came to his mouth, but he quickly swallowed it back.
Seeing Xu Yi's desire to speak again, Evita seemed to have guessed something, her pretty face flushed slightly, don't turn her head, paused, and asked softly: "Elder, you suddenly came to the Magic Research Institute, you should have asked about the progress of the research, right?"
"Ah...... Well, right. Tell me first, how is the progress of the magic airship you are researching?" Xu Yi immediately changed the subject with interest.
"It's kind of progress. When it comes to the magic airship, the expression on Evita's face is much more relaxed. "The Materials Research Institute has introduced and developed a new type of alloy, which is very lightweight, but extremely hard, and has quite good magic conduction properties, which is very suitable for use as the main material for making ZuΓ² magic airships. β
"Well, solving the material problem means that the problem is half solved. And then? Did you ask the Canby to help you build a magic blimp out of this new alloy?"
"Of course. Evita smiled happily. "And I've done several tests with this airship, and I've done three manned flight tests in a row, and the results are very good. Grow ......"
"Wait! manned flight test?" Xu Yi's face changed. Raising her hand interrupted Evita's words. "What do you mean...... When you were doing it, you made people sit in a magic airship and fly into the sky?"
"That's right. Evita's reaction to Xu Yi was a little strange. "Now the developed magic airship can directly install a control device inside the airship. Of course, someone needs to sit in it and control it. β
Xu Yi frowned, seeing what he had just seen in the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center and repeating his reprimand to Camby and the others.
"Remember, that's my bottom line. You must not use a living person to do this kind of dangerous reality, understand?" Xu Yi said to Evita with a stern face.
"Well, I understand. Evita nodded. "But when I do these things, I sit in it by myself and do it myself. Lord, you don't think with my level of magic. What's the danger?"
"Did you do it yourself?" Xu Yi was stunned.
"That's right. You also said that this is very dangerous, I don't feel at ease to let ordinary people sit in it and do experiments, and I can't just grab other magicians in the research institute to help, so I'm the only one who can do it myself. And if I do it myself, it's very convenient to collect the number jΓΉ and all kinds of details. Evita laughed.
"Hmm...... If it's up on your own, that's acceptable. Xu Yi nodded. "But Evita, even if you have the ability to fly, you still need to be careful. In case something happens, you won't be able to get out of the airship. That's dangerous, too. β
"I understand. I've also installed magic crash protection in my magic airship to make sure that even a big impact can cancel out most of the momentum. And I'm also thinking about adding the ejection seat you mentioned. In a critical situation, you can directly eject people. In addition, I really can't, I can use magic to directly destroy the entire magic airship and escape. β
"You've got a lot of things to think about. Xu also praised. "Yes, Evita, your mind is really much more cautious than that of Camby, if the guys in the R&D center can be like you, I will have a lot of peace of mind. β
Evita smiled slightly: "But my research and development progress will be slower this way, and it's not all good." β
"It's another thing to slow down or not, the most important thing is safety. Xu Yizheng said. "You are all my precious talents now, and it is an unacceptable loss for anyone to be injured. As long as you are here, there is hope that any research result will be realized. So no matter what, you should prioritize your own safety in the first place. β
After a pause, Xu Yi's expression eased slightly, and he said softly: "Even if you put aside the relationship on business, you are Steele's friend, we have known each other for so long, we can be regarded as friends, and I don't want you to have an accident." See what I mean?"
Evita's expression moved slightly, and she opened her mouth, but she didn't say anything, just lowered her head slightly, and said "um".
Xu Yi didn't care about the change in Evita's expression, looked left and right, and asked, "Okay, in addition to the follow-up research and development work of the magic car and the progress of the magic airship, I also want to ask about the research and development progress in other aspects." Any other good news?"
"Well, there are quite a few. Akali's main research on the magic array resonance technology has made another breakthrough, and now her new research resonance technology not only extends the resonance distance to a maximum of nearly a thousand meters, but also improves the accuracy a lot, and can also use the same magic array to control two magic arrays at the same time for resonance according to adjustments. β
"Oh, that's good news, but tell SΓΉ Akali for me that while she studies these related techniques, she also needs to study the means of countermeasures. I don't want these technologies to be hacked and we'll be reactive. β
"Will it?" Evita glanced at Xu Yi suspiciously, but nodded in response.
"So what other good news is there besides Akali?" Xu Yi asked again.
"The rest of the more important R&D breakthroughs are mainly focused on Grand Magician Camilla. Evita suddenly scoffed. "Lord, when it comes to staying safe, I think the most important thing you should remind is Grand Magician Camilla. β
Xu Yi slapped his forehead in distress and waved his hand: "He doesn't have to worry about it, and I don't have a problem with him." β
Looking at Xu Yi's helpless expression, Evita covered her mouth and snickered. (To be continued......)
