Chapter 70 Differential Machines for Computational Intelligence
"Sent here?" This time it wasn't Saria, even Mori, a mechanic from the Dragon Kingdom, was surprised.
And the surprise of the two also completely dispelled Motes's suspicions from the side, in the subconscious of most Westerners, they still think that the dragon country and the witch are omniscient.
The young mechanic who was called by Motes continued to explain: "Actually, the reason is very simple, the two of you must know that the world we live in is full of various elements, which can be said to be made of elements, and these wandering elements, if they are processed in some special ways, will naturally be able to meet certain needs specific to us, such as the most common magic in the Empire. ”
"And this difference machine, each calculation part inside, is engraved with special magic runes, these magic runes will absorb the corresponding magic elements by themselves, and then calculate those magic elements, and finally hit the results of the calculation on those punch cards, so that you can harvest the information carried by the magic elements. ”
At this time, Saria asked with some puzzlement: "However, who sent those magical elements that carried the information......
Before the question was finished, the witch suddenly thought of something and exclaimed, "Yes, it was sent by those magic towers?"
The young mechanic smiled and nodded: "Yes, madam, it's those magic towers, the empire has built magic towers one after another in various places, the purpose is to facilitate the transmission of information." ”
Immediately afterward, Murray asked with some surprise, "It turns out that you are stealing the message sent by the Imperial Magic Tower?"
Mortis waved his hand for the mechanic to get back to work, then smiled and replied, "How can this be theft? ”
Saria nodded and said, "It's true that it can't be considered stealing, but how did you decipher the message sent by the Imperial Magic Tower?"
Mortis smiled and shook his head, "Dear Madam, these are our secrets, and I can't tell you them all." ”
Seeing that the master of the black market was smiling, it was obvious that he was unwilling to answer, and Saria stopped asking.
After another tour of the room, Motess asked, as if offering a treasure, "What information do you need, beautiful lady?"
Before Salia could speak, someone next to her had already brought a card, and Motes pointed to the card and said, "In order to show my sincerity, I can give you a piece of information first, please write down the information you want to know on it." ”
Salia was stunned for a moment, then whispered to Murry, "What are we going to write to him?"
Murray thought for a moment and replied in a low voice: "Just ask him, what is the specific excuse for the empire to enter the army?"
Puzzled, Saria asked, "Didn't he say it before, because he was chasing the witch?"
Murray shook his head and whispered, "No, I don't think it's that simple, what if the Empire's goal isn't you?"
Salia was stunned at first, but soon understood that the other targets that Murray was talking about were the wild witches represented by Aunt Shana.
Thinking of this, she felt that this question was indeed an urgent problem, so she took a pen and wrote it on the card.
Rather than even looking at what was written, Motes asked the person with the card to take it back and start making a punch card for the differential machine.
There are two types of punch cards for differential machines, one is a punch card for input information, and the other is a punch card for output information.
Soon the question on Salia's card was made into an input punch card, which was inserted into the input port of the differential machine by the mechanics in the room.
In just a few seconds, a brand new punch card popped up from the other end.
The mechanic immediately collects the punch cards and gives them to the people who decode them for decoding.
Eventually, the information was harvested and almost covered in a piece of paper, and then presented to Sariya by a special person.
When Saria saw the information above, a somewhat complicated consternation appeared on her face, and then she handed the information to Murray to read.
Murray only glanced at it, and knew that his guess was correct, and the empire really knew that there were wild witches in Viscount Lane.
At this time, after listening to the whispers of the person in charge of presenting the intelligence, Motes smiled and said: "Actually, your information is no longer much information, the empire and the Holy See have long known that there are wild witches around Viscount Ryan, and they are also very clear that the reason why Viscount Ryan will firmly support industry is actually not outdated to hide people's eyes." ”
"Cover people's eyes?" Murray and Salia were a little incredulous when they heard this, and felt that this answer was really unexpected.
Motes went on to explain: "The reason why Viscount Ryan supports industry is because he also wants to strengthen himself through the combination of machinery and magic, just like the Empire, so that he can get rid of the control of the Empire. ”
Salia was really surprised, and Murray was also shocked, not expecting that in fact, Viscount Ryan had already had the idea of leaving the empire.
Motes seemed to enjoy the surprise of the two, and continued: "The baron sent by the Twelve Gold Families in the black market as a proton, he was the victim of the Twelve Gold Families back then, and he was used to exchange the Empire's opportunity to recuperate from Viscount Ryan at that time, thus giving the Empire time to free up its hands to fight Viscount Ryan head-on. ”
At this time, Murray suddenly contacted some of the information he had obtained before and whispered: "In other words, when the people of the Dragon Kingdom almost attacked the imperial capital, the living forces of the empire, including the Twelve Golden Families, suffered heavy losses? ”
Hearing this, Motes couldn't help but look at Murray twice, and now Murray, who is dressed as a middle-aged uncle, makes people feel very calm.
Looking at the flintlock pistol again, Mortes couldn't help but smile and said, "It seems that this servant of yours, Madam, must have participated in some wars, right?"
Murray and Saria glanced at each other, and a hint of joy appeared in their eyes, understanding that their outfit was completely confusing others.
Then Murray said in a deep voice: "I have participated, but I am not the victor on the battlefield, I am an old dog who has not died." ”
Motess comforted him: "Brother, don't be presumptuous, you have participated in those wars back then, and you have already been very powerful, not to mention saving your life, which is more important than victory." ”
Murray didn't continue the topic, but continued: "Speaking of which, the Twelve Golden Families of the empire were forced by Viscount Lane's strength at that time to choose to reconcile with Viscount Lane, and sent out protons and a large area of territory, all in order to stabilize Viscount Lane, and even let Viscount Lane gather those wild witches around him?"
Mortis suddenly smiled strangely at this time: "Dear Madam, I have a very interesting piece of information in my hand, I think you will definitely need it, just in terms of price?"
Sariya didn't hesitate at all, and said coldly: "You set the price, we don't negotiate the price, but the intelligence is worth that price." ”
Motess laughed and said, "Hahaha, okay, Madame is really a heroine among women, just refreshing, don't worry, that piece of information is definitely worth it." ”
With that, Motes whispered a few words to the mechanic waiting beside him, and the mechanic immediately turned around to get another piece of information.
When handing over the information, Mortis smiled and said, "Madam, this information is for you, and we can settle it." ”
Saria didn't hesitate, nodded and took the piece of information, looked down with Murray, and was once again stunned by the information above.
