Chapter 1060: New World Airship Technology

Information about the next battle plan, as well as various personnel arrangements and details of the operation, has been sent to the Great Anthill Wasteland by a special messenger in a pterodactyl.

Gordon and Feng Ying, who were supposed to return as soon as possible, were temporarily left behind.

Perhaps it was a mistake in the previous meeting that made the commander-in-chief realize the importance of the opinions of the front-line combatants, and he involved Gordon and Feng Ying in the development of the list of support supplies.

The two hunters didn't actually help much, so they pulled out the equipment and ammunition that their companions had asked for, and they were a little confused about what to bring.

Rather, it was the pork chops that provided plenty of advice.

This makes at least half of the first batch of supplies all sorts of "explosive" big bangs.

The veteran craftsmen of the second phase of the regiment were very fast, and on the second day after returning to the star stronghold, Gordon and the others saw the scene of the investigation team's empty boat, which had been sealed for many years, and debugged the scene of liftoff.

The shape of this airboat is more unique.

Gordon is okay, after all, there is a research base of the third phase of the regiment, but Feng Ying was sturdy and earthquaked.

"What the hell is this?!" She couldn't help but complain.

Next to them.

An old craftsman with gray shawl hair and a thin figure, whether it is clothing, posture, or face, gives people a strong sense of decadence, but his eyes are shining, he is holding his hands on his chest, looking at the airboat on the platform not far away, the airbags are gradually filled, and the airboat is slowly and steadily rising.

It was difficult to hide the emotion and pride in his tone, "Finally, finally this day has come again, the sky is a man's romance!" ”

"Hmm"

Gordon knew this, he was the airship developer in the mouth of the commander of the second phase of the regiment.

Before that, Gordon had only one impression of this man - a drunken drunkard.

Do only the bare minimum work every day, then run to the Bobcat Pavilion, or buy a few bottles of wine and sit in the corner and waste the whole day drunk.

Later, I learned that this old drunkard was a very powerful engineer and an absolute expert in aircraft.

In the old continent, the resources are sufficient, the market is vast, the development of various types of air boats is thriving, and in recent years, there has even been a large flying ship such as the dragon knowledge ship, which has condensed countless technology crystallizations.

But these aircraft have one characteristic, they are specially designed and finalized after repeated practice.

The center of gravity is stable, the streamlined cabin, the already modular buoyancy airbags, and even the length and thickness of the cable have special standards.

But not so much in the New World.

Even now, when the number of people has increased dramatically after the arrival of the fifth phase of the mission, the number of air boats needed by the investigation team is only two or three at most, and it is impossible to form mass production if there are too many of them, and the resources are extremely limited.

It takes time, effort and materials to build the cabin from scratch, so the empty boat of the investigation team was rebuilt from the wreckage of the sea ship.

It's like the one in front of you.

The pod appears to have been converted from a 50-meter-class seagoing vessel, with a third of the stern.

The center of gravity of this thing is not as smooth as the cabin of a regular airboat.

Therefore, it does not have a huge airbag with a special configuration like those empty ships in the Old Continent, but is composed of more than a dozen hot air balloons of different sizes, which together form a buoyancy component.

Anyway, from Feng Ying's point of view, this thing can't be called an empty boat, it's just a wreck of a sea ship with a lot of balloons tied to it and just flying!

The test flight was a success.

The moment the airship landed smoothly, the airship developer rushed forward wildly, and he will make final fine-tuning for some small problems exposed during the test flight.

A petite figure jumped down from the airship, and she bounced towards Feng Ying.

It's Isana.

As she ran towards here, she yelled at Feng Ying, "Amazing! This airship is amazing! That uncle who transformed the airboat is also super powerful! ”

Feng Ying tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Is it more powerful than your Isana?" ”

Isana choked, but said happily, "It's different! Do you see the cabin made of the wreckage of the stern? Truth be told, it wasn't a good pod at all.

But the uncle simply transformed it into an empty boat, relying on the decentralized airbag arrangement, the handling and stability were adjusted to a perfect state, even the father (the head of the Tulong clan) could hardly do it. ”

The head of the second group walked over with a smile, "Hahaha, little girl, the forging technology of your Naguli Village is absolutely superb, and Daddy Ling is a world-famous craftsman, but when it comes to airship design, you are not an expert." ”

Isana puffed out, "One-eyed boss, the Isana built by our Naguli Village has killed the ancient dragon." ”

“.?”

Gordon couldn't help but feel a little funny when he listened to Isana's angry words in order to save face, but he still followed her words and said: "That's right, the Tianxiao Dragon that spread the dragon plague and ravaged the Sky Mountain was killed by the Isana. ”

The head of the second phase of the regiment scratched his bald head, "We have been away from the old continent for more than 30 years, and the airship technology in Naguli Village has developed like this?" ”

In his mind, he had a terrifying image of the Nagul Village airboat with a huge ramming angle, flying around with the ancient dragon.

"Hee-hee, just kidding, in fact, that Sky Dragon was beaten half to death by Gordon and the others, and when he was about to escape, he was hit by our boat and used a dragon spear." Isana eventually explained.

"I see."

Isana brought the topic back to the airship in front of her, "But that uncle is really powerful, I heard that even if a third of these airbags are broken, the airship can still barely maintain its flight."

Lose more than half of your airbags before an airboat crashes? ”

"yes."

Looking at the airship developers who regained their spirits and loudly commanded the craftsmen to carry out debugging, the head of the second phase of the regiment couldn't help sighing, "Whether it is the 'Stars' in front of me or the 'Knowledge' of the third phase of the regiment, he designed it alone and led people to transform it."

Over the years, he had been guilty of the fall of the Knowledge, but it was not his fault at all.

It is better to say that the third phase of the regiment was attacked by the Wind Drifting Dragon, but it was still able to successfully make a forced landing and minimize the casualties, which is his credit. ”

Gordon couldn't help but think back to the research base that had gone through twenty years of wind and rain and was still floating steadily in mid-air, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Commander of the second phase, how long will it take for this airboat to complete the commissioning and officially set sail?" Gordon asked the question that was most of his concern.

The head of the second phase of the regiment patted Gordon on the back vigorously, "Don't worry! Yesterday we replaced the aging parts overnight, and now the commissioning is almost complete, and we can put it into use tomorrow! ”

Gordon breathed a sigh of relief, but luckily it wasn't an answer like "at least wait another week."

It just so happened that under the coordination of the material squad, the preparation of the first batch of supplies was almost complete, and it seemed that tomorrow, the day after tomorrow at the latest, would be able to leave.

The companions on the other side of the Great Ant Mound Wasteland, I'm afraid they can't wait.

At this time, Feng Ying suddenly poked Gordon's waist, "Master Gordon, didn't the pork chop say that you should prepare something 'spiced'?" You ready? ”

"I almost forgot about it." Gordon curled his fingers and tapped his forehead.

"After dinner yesterday, it locked itself in the studio, and asked the people in the material team to send a lot of materials in, I'm afraid it will make quite terrible things."

"Pretty scary stuff, uh, that's a good thing, right?"
