Chapter 132: Painting Cakes
Heras rode on the prince's neck day and night, and as long as the loyal high-ranking servant regained the ability to fly for a short time, he would never run on the ground. So by the time they reached the place as fast as they could, Barnett was almost exhausted, but he still stood upright, as proud as a sharp knight's sword!
As soon as Goblin Marlin's words fell, a huge three-legged turret took the lead in stepping out of the logging forest, three flexible and thick mechanical legs distributed in the three corners of the chassis, steadily supporting the huge turret dense array above, and the sufficient steam power made every step of the mechanical legs seem so unstoppable, breaking all the trees in its path.
"It's good that Gleilenya isn't here" Heras looked at the scene of wanton destruction of the forest in front of him, and couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, now that his wife is already a powerful high-ranking person, if she sees this kind of scene around her, the Priestess of the Moon will probably not be able to hold back the anger in her heart, even if she takes into account her own existence, she is very likely to turn against the gnomes on the spot.
Although his wife loved him very much, it did not mean that he was dominated, and Glelenya had only attachment to him and no dependence on him. And in a way, strength and patience are inversely proportional to everyone.
The massive three-legged turret trampled through the trees, and with a rumbling thud it came to a halt in front of Heras, stopping in the roar of steam.
"Commander Danber, it's a pleasure to see you again, and the story of working with you to save Metro Line 10 has become an unforgettable memory for me. Heras looked up in greeting. Then he said with a smile that now he has a request for others. So as soon as he opened his mouth, he quietly pulled up a friendship.
"I will never forget it, sir. Especially your driving skills and courage. Danber's calm voice came from the turret through the speakers, and he continued in a joking tone, "But I don't think you've come to visit the Mechanics' Guild, especially now that the new city of Northredam is just beginning to be rebuilt. ”
"No, it's because of the city's redevelopment that I've made a special trip, and I hope to do my part for this, a help that you desperately need. Heras said in a sincere tone that he didn't believe in himself, but because his acting skills were so skillful, his sincere tone and sincere expression had infected many of the members of the Guild who were driving the machinery around him.
"May I meet with Lord McGonagall Mecca?" saw that the machines around him had moved out of the way. Heras hurriedly asked while the iron was hot.
"Your Excellency Chief Technician is busy, but I'll submit the application for you, friend Emma, take your servant to the city for a while. Commander Danber kindly reminded, "However, the new city is built to the standards of a military base, and the living facilities are very simple, so there is nothing to entertain you. ”
"It's okay, the friendship of the association is the best hospitality," Heras smiled politely, but rightfully for granted. Just the right etiquette simply brings out the best of what a human should be.
This conversation made the surrounding drivers feel more fond of the humans in front of them, and they all knew that the Emma had helped the Gnome Mechanics Guild rescue refugees. And visiting New Northeritan again makes people feel like a spring breeze. None of them could think of any reason why His Excellency the Chief Technician had not seen this man.
At this time, all the members of the association subconsciously ignored the fact that this 'Emma friend' was paid for a state-of-the-art electro-powered mecha, and also obtained the association's instant information terminal. In fact, the association did not owe anything to Heras
Although it is a bit hypocritical to say. But it is indeed an innate talent, and in fact, diplomacy is one of the famous talents of the human race.
Humans can play the role of angels according to their needs. Or a demon
Obviously, Heras is now playing an angel. As a result, he was treated with great courtesy by the Association and was escorted to the heart of New Northeridam without any hindrance. The chief technician soon replied that he would take a night out to meet him and hear what good advice the Emma friend had.
The smoky and steam-filled city of New Northeridam was filled with military installations such as anti-aircraft weapons, but there was not much room for housing and all the refugees had to be housed, so every steam dome was crowded.
But Heras and Barnett were still housed in a larger, spherical metal building, which was of course for the gnomes
After a short rest, night soon fell, and the chief technician's guard came over and invited him to the command center.
The massive, sturdy, steel-domed bastions formed the bulk of the command center, and Heras had just entered the guild's council chamber through the sealed passage strewn with cannons when he saw something talking to a gaunt gnome sitting across the hall door.
A circle of simple telescopic mechanical chairs arranged around the narrow council hall seems to be limited at present, and the top management of the association has to settle for it.
As soon as Heras stepped through the hall, the high-level executives who were discussing stopped their discussions and turned their heads to look at him, including the familiar head technician, Mario.
"Hello, guest Emma, what would you like to do for the Guild?" said the emaciated dwarf in the center, whose hair and beard were tangled, his voice unusually dry and hoarse.
"Your Excellency McGonagall Mecca. Heras bowed graciously, and then said gratefully, "First of all, I would like to thank the Association for the electro-powered mecha that helped me through a lot of difficulties. ”
"Friend, you deserve it. Mario, the head technician, said with a smile that he had always had a good impression of the Emma.
"It's a pity that the mech has been destroyed. After Heras sighed, he changed his tone and first threw out a quote: "But in the process of driving, I found that the mechanical power brought by the high-strength compressed rocket fuel far exceeds the steam power, why don't you eliminate the steam boiler?"
The chief technicians looked at each other when they heard this, they didn't expect the Emma man to mention this as soon as he opened his mouth, but after thinking about it, Chief Technician McGonagall still selected some concepts that did not involve the core technology, and explained in detail: "Rocket fuel can only be used as temporary fuel for mecha flight, and if it is used as the main fuel, although the output power will indeed increase a lot, the fuel consumption is also very fast, and the frequent refueling of fuel greatly affects the combat of the mecha." You know, we don't know magic, we don't make magic items, and if we use space equipment to store rocket fuel, it's very expensive to use. ”
After a pause, McGonagall Meka continued: "But the electrochemical steam boiler does not have this problem, and uses the Magic Power Core as the fuel, which can provide a very long-lasting steam power to maximize combat effectiveness. ”
"I take the liberty of asking, Your Excellency the Chief Technician, can the Magic Electric Energy Core be produced by the Association on its own?" Hearing this, Heras asked without a trace.
The Chief Technician pondered for a moment, because this already involved the secrets of the Guild, and if someone else dared to ask such a question, McGonagall would not have a good face, but the Emma man in front of him had already proved his friendship with the gnomes, and it could be seen from the previous question about rocket fuel that he still knew a lot about machinery.
"As long as there is a production line, it can be produced independently, but there are several links in the production line of the magic electric energy core that must use imported magic alchemy equipment. After a moment of silence in the hall, McGonagall Meka replied calmly, though Heras could hear a hint of anxiety in the calm, and in fact, the anxiety of the entire Gnome Mechanics Association.
"In other words, if the production line is destroyed, and there is not enough magical alchemy equipment to keep in stock, then the production of the magic power core will be greatly affected?" Heras confirmed unhurriedly.
"That's it, do you have any idea, friend Emma?" asked McGonagall solemnly.
"It's just an idea, and you need to explore the specific research on your own. Seeing that the atmosphere was almost brewing, Heras directly threw out his shocking opinion: "For example, use natural electricity to convert into magic electricity? I think you should be able to use natural electricity independently." ”
In the universe where Ampharon is located, it is necessary to control magic energy to enter the electric age, because all kinds of energy reserves in this world are based on magic energy resources! And the races that can control magic energy have all chosen the path of magical civilization without exception, disdainful of natural electricity, and the inertia of this civilization has undoubtedly greatly limited the development of science and technology in the magic universe.
In the Federation's technology, electricity is generated primarily by antimatter generators, but nuclear reactors must be relied upon before reaching this stage of civilization.
In this magical universe, although there are radioactive elements, the sun in the plane does not rely on nuclear reactions, which shows that the laws of the universe are not exactly the same. Without nuclear reactions as the foundation for the initiation of technological civilization, natural electricity is not only difficult to collect for this magical universe, but also extremely inefficient to use.
But what Heras wanted was to use natural electricity to help the gnomes change their direction and control magical energy through machinery. Of course, it remains to be verified whether it is feasible to get out of the age of steam, and he just wants to show that he can easily convert between natural electricity and magic electricity, and draw a big pie for the Gnome Mechanics Guild to achieve his true purpose (to be continued......
