"I knew it was going to be like this."

Seeing the aircraft fall from the sky, Theodore couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then complained in a low voice. "Master Helram shouldn't have indulged her ...... so much"

Lynn stared at the sky, the massive flying machine swaying in mid-air, and it was this square that fell.

However, the people gathered in the square did not have a panicked look on their faces, so Lynn gave up the plan to make a move, and it seemed that someone should come to clean up this mess.

Sure enough, just as the flying machine was about to fall to the ground, several wizards in the square made a move, and they all released the slow fall technique, allowing the aerial vehicle to land smoothly in the center of the square, but the devastated wings had already fallen apart, and the camel beast leather covering it had long since been blown away by the wind.

"I really can only fly a little bit......"

Jonny watched the machine rise and fall into the air, then turned to look at Lynn, wondering how he knew so well.

"Steam alone is not enough to sustain flight, and the design of the entire airframe is not very aerodynamic...... The fall is inevitable. Lynn shook his head and replied softly, he naturally saw the problem with this flying machine at a glance.

But this halfling girl named Lydia was able to make this flying machine out of such simple materials and make it work, which was an engineering genius.

It's also a good idea to imitate birds waving their wings to provide lift, but it's just too much to take for granted, and only stop at the most basic morphological learning, and only know what it is, but not why.

Generally...... History has proven that there is no future in building a steam plane, this thing is not powerful enough, and it can't fly high or far......

"You mean, change the power, and then redesign the structure, this... Not... Flying machines can fly freely in the sky, completely without relying on the power of magic? ”

The two were chatting when a gentle voice rang out behind them.

Lynn turned her head to look over, and found that the person who spoke was an old man in a black robe and a bowler hat, about sixty or seventy years old, with a very neatly trimmed beard and an inexplicable glimmer between his pupils.

Theodore saw the man and hurriedly bowed. "Master Helram!"

The man who came was none other than the ruler of the harbor of Iyeta, Hellam!

As an extremely noble wizard, the other party's dress was so plain that the residents of Harbor Town around him couldn't recognize him immediately.

"It is a great honor to meet you, Your Excellency Hellam." Lynn bowed his head and saluted, showing respect for the Great Wizard according to the custom here, and then did not directly answer the other party's question, but turned to ask rhetorically.

"Isn't an alchemy ship that also uses steam as a power be able to sail the seas without relying on magic? Why can't you fly? ”

Helram raised an eyebrow, thinking that the question was very interesting, and Theodore on the side said impatiently.

"Who told you that those alchemy ships have nothing to do with magic? Looks like you must not have learned alchemy very well......"

While speaking, Theodore gave Lynn, an alien dirt bun, an introduction to the two operation methods of the alchemy ship.

Either an official wizard is in charge of controlling the alchemy machine, or the corresponding alchemy circle is activated with magic stones as an energy source.

In other words, is it using magic to create steam? Lynn was embarrassed for a while, he really didn't expect that those alchemy ships were not coal-burning.

Could this be the legendary 100 kilometers that consumes a wizard...... The magic?

Helram glanced at Lynn in surprise, more than twenty years ago, when the steam engine was first built, it really didn't need to consume any magic power, and then it was more convenient to use magic stones as an energy source.

In fact, Lydia's steam engine on the aircraft did not use any magic, but few new wizards in the harbor of Iyeta were willing to study the basic principles of these alchemical formulas.

"Master Helram~"

While they were chatting, Lydia had already broken free from the deformed cabin with the help of a group of halflings, and a cut was torn on the sleeve of her robe, but the girl didn't care, and hurriedly ran to Hellam, asking with great anticipation.

"Am I a success? I actually flew just now, you should have seen it, right? ”

"It's not a success, it's just ......," Helram paused, jokingly repeating Lynn's words. Fly a little bit! ”

Lydia's little face immediately collapsed, like a defeated bird, and then hurriedly said that she had made great progress this time, and as long as she modified it again, this thing would definitely be able to fly successfully.

Helram listened patiently to Lydia's narration and complaints, and then turned to look at Lynn and the others.

"Looks like you have something to talk to me about, so come on, Theodore, you bring a few guests to the academy first, and I'll be there in a moment!"

Theodore nodded, this was indeed not the place to speak, but before he could turn away, Hellam's voice rang out again.

"Also, Theodore, if you have any grievances against me, you can tell me in person."

Obviously, just now Helram not only heard Lynn's evaluation of the aircraft, but also heard the other party's complaints.

"No, Master, I mean to say, Lydia is doing a flight experiment in the square, it's too dangerous, in case of any accident, not only can it easily hurt the townspeople, but ...... And ......" Theodore's expression paused for a moment, and he hurriedly explained, but Helram interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

"Okay, I see what you mean, next time I'll set up a magic enchantment, and your considerations are not all unreasonable."

As the aircraft fell to the ground, the "farce" in the square ended, and the townspeople who had satisfied their desire for novelty gradually dispersed in a burst of noise and gossip.

Theodore was rather depressed and took a few people to the nearby Iyeta Academy of Magic.

It was a sprawling complex standing in the middle of the city, with towering spires, heavy black walls, and the most conspicuous of all, the Screaming Towers, which could be seen even outside the harbor......

"Is it so difficult to become a wizard apprentice in the harbor of Iyeta?"

Stepping into the door of the academy, Lynn thought that he had just seen the flight experiment, and couldn't help but ask.

He'd heard it before, and it seemed that the girl named Lydia had to complete this experiment in order to be eligible to join the Academy of Magic, which seemed to be a bit too difficult.

Isn't it possible that everyone needs to be so troublesome to enroll?

"No, that's just a test for Lydia alone." Theodore explained. "Master Helram is also well-intentioned, these halflings have no magical talent, and letting her enter the academy is a complete waste of time......"
