54 Chicken in soup
"The engine, here. Yili walked over to one of the largest square wooden boxes, patted it, and introduced it to the unicorn.
"The 'Backfire' II engine produced by the machine building workshop 'Cadillac' is equipped with 12 star-shaped cylinders, with an average output of 2,400 horsepower, using a reverse drainage device, the engine starts in less than five seconds, and the heat dissipation is completely air-cooled, and the high-plus running time during the battle can reach 90 minutes. As for other aspects of performance, it is completely above the ordinary engine, but because the cost is too high, the director can not be mass-produced, and only a dozen units have been produced for each team to test, and it is not easy to find a new one in it. β
At the same time as Yili's introduction, the unicorn couldn't wait to open the lid of the box, only to see that in the filling full of silk linen, a corner of a metal component was exposed, and the surface of the component was a deep black like cast iron, with an inorganic luster. For the air rider with strict requirements in the selection of materials, the engine and cannon are one of the few components that use metal structure, among which the engine is an important part that provides the propulsion power of the air rider, and the structure is also quite precise, only a large number of metal materials are used to ensure that the output of high power is undertaken under such a precise structure, but based on the characteristics of air flow, of course, a lot of biological materials are used in the structure of the engine.
The Kirin held his breath and reached out to touch the corner of the engine, echoing the cool touch of metal. His heart pounded with excitement, and Erie's voice of worry rang out beside him.
"To be honest, I'm a little worried. It is said that the engine is so powerful that the weaker body is often torn apart when it is overpowered, and in fact, this engine is discontinued because of this. I said, Wolf Flame's body has fallen once, is it really okay to use such a powerful engine again?"
"Of course, no problem!" replied Kirin on the spot. When it comes to the condition of Wolf Flame, no one knows it better than him. "The wolf flame did fall from the sky, but due to the effect of the levitation mechanism, the body itself did not suffer much impact when it fell to the ground. I've carefully examined the skeleton of Wolf Flame, and everything is intact except for the broken beam, and when it is engined, it is a brand new empty rider. β
Saying this, Kirin couldn't wait to move the engine out, but Yili stopped him.
"Wait, won't you take a look at the cannon first?"
"Cannon, yes, and cannon......" Kirin gave a reluctant look at the engine with the expression he had just remembered, and then moved to follow Yili to the side of another pile of boxes.
There were six wooden boxes, four long wooden boxes on the top and two rectangular ones below, each of which seemed to be full of weight and was unusually well bandaged.
"This is the cannon you wanted, four in all. Erie pointed to the four boxes on them and introduced them to the Kirin. "The 25-caliber standard cannon produced by the martial arts workshop 'Renault', with a basic firing range of 500 meters and a firing rate of 120 per minute, is an order product of the La Velis Air Force, and it is not difficult to get it because it has been mass-produced. In fact, the Greine Chamber of Commerce and Renault Atelier have had several deals in the past, and I personally went to Lex to order four cannons, and there was no access to the black market, so I saved a lot of money. β
Yili seemed to be proud of the budget savings, but Kirin's attention had long been drawn to the four boxes. The box with the cannon was wrapped in a tarpaulin on the outside, and the inside was nailed tightly, so there was a crowbar next to the wooden box, but someone had long since lost that patience, and a few handfuls ripped off the canvas and pulled the lid of the wooden box directly with his hands. With a tooth-aching creaking sound, a cannon wrapped in oilcloth appeared in front of the Kirin.
Looking at the sharp teeth of the wolf flame in front of him, bursts of ecstasy beat the nerves of the unicorn like angry waves. Qilin only felt that his blood was floating, and he took several deep breaths to stabilize his senses, and then carefully moved the cannon out of the box and looked at it carefully in his hand. I saw that the cannon was about one meter long from head to tail, the front two-thirds part was a slender barrel, the back third part was a thick gun body, the dark gun body was inlaid with a conductive spar the size of a dragon's eye, and the inside of the barrel was depicted with sharp spiral rifling.
The unicorn held the cannon, and the majestic appearance of the flame giant holding the volcano cannon in his mind appeared, and his heart suddenly swelled with pride, and he lowered his waist and shoulders, imitating the classic shape of the flame giant, and gestured around.
"Uh, that, it's not loaded yet......" Erie stopped the goofy in a confused voice, then pointed to the two boxes below. "Anyway, open it up first, shall we?"
"Oh...... Oh. The Kirin, who came back to his senses, put the cannons back into the wooden box with some shame, then moved the four cannons to the ground, and then opened the two boxes below.
"It's ...... Bone bullets?" Looking at the neatly stacked bone bullets in the box, Kirin was stunned. "How much?"
"There are a total of 2,400 boxes in the two boxes, all of which are first-class bone bullets, which can be regarded as a bonus for the cannon. Yili introduced with some pride.
It should be noted here that since the cannons of the Air Rider are also powered by airflow energy, the bullets used must also be biomaterial. Broadly speaking, the bullets used in cannons can be divided into three categories, namely wooden bullets, composite bullets, and bone bullets.
The so-called wooden bullet, as the name suggests, is a bullet made of hardwood, although it has the characteristics of low cost, but due to the general low lethality, it is now a semi-obsolete technology.
As for the composite bullet, it is a new type of bullet improved on the basis of wooden bullets, simply put, it is to add a metal bullet to the front end of the hardwood, so as to greatly increase the penetration force of the bullet on the armor. Although the penetration force of the composite projectile is higher than that of the wooden projectile, on the other hand, because the addition of the metal warhead hinders the transmission of airflow energy, the initial degree of the composite projectile is not as good as that of the wooden projectile, and the effective range is also shorter than that of the wooden projectile by a small half. However, based on its high lethality, the wooden bullet was eliminated by an overwhelming advantage, becoming the most widely used bullet at present.
Compared with composite bullets, bone bullets are not advanced technology, but they are one of the most advanced bullets commonly used. The material of the bone bullet is usually the teeth of beasts or monsters, and the teeth of the beast not only have the hardness of a metal bullet, but also do not obstruct the conduction of the air flow at all, so both the destructive power and the range are above the composite bullet. Although bone bullets have all the above advantages, they have the only characteristic that is not conducive to popularization - the scarcity of their material sources directly determines the high cost of bone bullets.
This time, Yili extorted a full two thousand first-grade bones from Renault's workshop, no wonder there was such a proud expression. On the other hand, it can also be seen that this usually inconspicuous Grayne Shaodong has all the terrifying talents in transaction negotiations.
"Okay...... good" The hungry man saw the table of delicacies in front of him, and the unicorn kept rubbing his hands, looking very excited.
Seeing his appearance, Yili couldn't help but worry and reminded him. "Well, maybe I don't need to remind you, but only the cannon can't shoot bullets, right?"
"Huh?" Qilin, who was about to reload his bullets, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly remembered some basic common sense of empty riding.
In fact, neither the engine nor the cannon can be used alone, and they must be used in conjunction with the levitation mechanism to wield their original performance.
To illustrate a simple analogy, if the engine is regarded as the feet of the air rider and the cannon as the sharp teeth of the air rider, then the floating mechanism is the heart of the air rider and the power source of the cannon and the engine. The principle of the operation of the air ride is that the energy in the air flow stone is first released by the floating mechanism, and the released air flow energy is along the unobstructed circuit composed of biological materials to produce an air flow circulation around the air ride body - this process is equivalent to the human heart pressing blood to various organs of the body, and in order to distinguish it from the world-wide air flow circulation scattered in the atmosphere, pilots usually call the tiny circulation generated by the floating mechanism "air control circle".
The Levitation Mechanism unfolds the "Void Circle", and the "Void Circle" acts on the Air Rider's body. On the one hand, the air control ring interacts with the air flow scattered in the atmosphere to generate the buoyancy of the carrying body, and on the other hand, through the circuit of the body itself, the air flow energy is continuously supplied to the engine and cannon. In other words, without the energy provided by the air circle, the cannon and engine are nothing more than useless pieces of iron.
"Uh......" Qilin, who remembered this fact, put down the bullet in his hand in embarrassment. "This ...... Of course I know about it, I just want to try it first. β
"Well, I think so, after all, even I, a layman, know this kind of common sense. Yi Li Yan nodded, but the gaze in his eyes was full of smiles.
........................
After listening to Yili's introduction of the parts he brought, Kirin looked through a thick stack of instructions with great interest, while Greine Shaodong took the opportunity to look at the place where Kirin was repairing. Then, Erie's attention was quickly drawn to the two monitor lizards hanging from the mast.
β...... This is the Korodo dragon you brought back from the volcano? If you look at it from this distance, it feels really fierce, no wonder the 6th Army can't handle it......"
Looking up at the monitor lizard, Erie's expression was quite subtle, he couldn't tell whether it was regret or sadness, as if the Colorado dragon in front of him evoked some kind of memory in him. But it didn't take long for this Grayn Shaodong to regain his original hearty expression and ask the Qilin who was checking the engine over there, "Speaking of which, I heard that you snatched it from the Flame Giant, is it true?"
"Count...... It's true......" As soon as he thought of the overly heroic senior brother, Kirin's mood fell.
"So, what about our majesty, have you already gone back to the palace?" said Ely, who turned to Xiude.
"That guy is still outside...... Qilin pointed weakly to the direction of the Duke's Mansion towards the riverbank. "The uncle opened the place for everyone to see, and the guy went to set up a podium and went up every day to blow up the cover. Three sessions in the morning and four in the afternoon, but there was an endless stream of people who came to listen, and sometimes there were night performances in the evening...... In my opinion, that guy should not be a king, it is better to simply change careers and become a wandering poet, maybe he can do something beneficial for society. β
Qilin unceremoniously denied Xiude's qualifications as a monarch. Although his words may be reasonable, it is not interesting to listen to others belittle his monarch from the standpoint of the citizens of the Kingdom of Lavelis, so Ely felt that he should probably refute it.
"Hey, that's a ...... of you."
"That's right!"
Just as the merchant's son smiled wryly and made a useless effort, a voice interjected, and the two of them looked in the direction from which the voice came.
"That's right! Kirin, you are really my confidant! Actually, I didn't want to be this king for a long time, and the poet is the most romantic profession in the world!" Facing the eyes of the two, the owner of the voice did not hide his ambition at all. "Think about it, compared to the palace with high walls and deep courtyards, how vast the world outside is! Think about it, compared to dealing with piles of texts in the deacon's room, how enjoyable it is to go to the tavern to indulge in singing! No matter how many books I read, I can't get as much as my own sense of adventure! Compared to a bunch of aunts and maids in the palace, there are countless beautiful women waiting for my summons!"
It seems that he has not yet recovered from the excitement of storytelling, someone's voice is full of passion, but the content is quite inexplicable.
β...... Is there even a little bit of appeal to the life of the palace in comparison?
"Well, even if you ask me for advice......" Qilin looked at the idle king who came to him in front of him with some confusion, while Yili, who was standing next to him, looked up at the sky with a bitter expression. Although the son of a businessman did not say anything, his face clearly showed the question "Is the future of this country really okay?"
"Anyway, I've decided! I'm going to be the first bard to ascend to the sky, the first to ride on the back of a dragon!"
Xiude announced it with great ambition, but the two listeners responded coldly to his declaration.
"The ......," Erie said worriedly, stretching out his index finger and drawing a circle around his head, "is it okay?"
"Hmm, I'm afraid it's hopeless...... Qilin shook his head regretfully, and then quickly decided on a countermeasure. "Leave him alone, let's continue to count the parts, what are the other boxes?"
"Hey, hey, I'm also the most prestigious storyteller in the royal capital at the moment, you're going to die if you hold it out?" Xiude protested dissatisfiedly.
"You can continue to play treasure, anyway, I will sue you, yesterday I saw my uncle come out of the warehouse in the backyard. "The unicorn doesn't shake him.
β...... What is the teacher doing in the warehouse if he has nothing to do?" Xiude couldn't help but be vigilant.
"At that time, I saw that the uncle was holding an iron ruler in his hand, which was about this long ......" Qilin stretched out his hand and gestured in the air. The uncle said that it was a precept given by the previous king, which was specially used to punish some stubborn and wicked people who did not obey discipline. Uncle wants me to sue you, saying that if you dare to play crazy and foolish in front of the people again, and ruin the reputation of the family of IsΓ¨re and the royal family of La Velis, he will let you know...... Well, what it's like to not be able to sit on the bench for three months, as it seems. β
"Three...... Three months?" Xiude looked violently shaken, obviously having had an unforgettable experience before.
"Uh......" Xiude raised his head in a panic and looked around, and then his eyes stopped on the two monitor lizards flying high, he seemed to be planning to do something to ease the duke's anger, so he said: "I said, we can almost take off the top two ends, right?
"I haven't done it yet, so I can't use it. Kirin replied depressedly. "If I could, I would have taken them off a long time ago, do you still need them?"
"But...... But, is it okay to hang like this?" "The weather in summer can be unpredictable, and if there is a sudden rainstorm, the wait of the past few days will be in vain, right?"
"you, that's going to be like this...... Huh?" the Kirin suddenly looked up in confusion.
Because just as Xiude was speaking, he suddenly felt something cold dripping on his nose.
At first, Kirin thought it was his own delusion, but it didn't take long for the two people next to him to make the same moves as him.
A few seconds later, under the stunned gaze of the three people, a heavy rainstorm rarely seen in summer fall from the sky, and the violent rain quickly drenched the three of them into soup chickens.
"You dead crow's mouth......" Luotang Jijia symbolically wiped his face and stared at Luotang Jiyi with a cruel expression. "Anything to say?"
"No...... It's none of my business!I'm just talking casually!" Facing the murderous gaze of Luotang Jijia, Luotang Jiyi's face was quite pale.
"Well, now is not the time to be held accountable, is it?" Luo Tang Ji C. interjected, pointing to the wooden box that was about to soak in the soup over there. "Salvage parts are important!"
