Daxian came to vote, and Lawson naturally immediately put down his work to greet him.

The sky was still covered with thin rain, but the shadow of the sun could already be seen behind the clouds.

Luo Sen rushed from the refining workshop to the square in front of the Lord's Mansion, and saw that the door was crowded, all of them were mages with their families.

Except for Hamilton, who is in his forties, everyone else is between twenty and thirty years old, and each is young and strong.

Rosen took a quick glance and found that the mana achievements of this group of young mages had basically reached the middle level, and at least one-tenth of them had reached the high level.

I can also vaguely feel that the temperament of these mages is similar to Hamilton, and they are all the kind of stubbornness that will be stumbled to the end when they grasp a difficult problem.

This kind of person is a good material for scientific research.

Rosen was happy in his heart: "Not bad~ It's really good~ This group of talents has to be used well." ”

Of course, before employing people, you have to help people settle down at home.

There are more than 900 people and nearly 300 households, and it is really difficult to settle in normal times, but after Moby Dick City was liquidated by him, there were too many empty houses, and they were all good houses.

After a little thought, Rosen had a plan in mind, and shouted in the voice of the group's heart.

"Everyone come with me~"

Then, he called out to Harrick and led the way with a large number of attendants, leading the group all the way to the door of the mansion in the northeast corner of Moby Dick.

This mansion originally belonged to the Rheinente family and covers an area of 60 Labang, which is equivalent to 1,800 acres of the earth.

The empty houses in the mansion were cleaned up, and there was no problem living in 500 households.

So, these 300 families live in this area, which is quite spacious.

Rosen wasn't a mess either, he had already investigated the housing conditions in Raging Waves.

It is true that the city of the Angry Waves is prosperous in magic and has developed commerce, but it is also extremely densely populated and the competition is very fierce, and the main city is every inch of land.

There are no high-rise buildings to ease the space in this world, and there are only five floors in the sky, so the competition for housing space is much more fierce than in the big cities of the earth in the previous life.

An average of 200 CZK is sold for a flat area.

For a civilian mage living in the city of Nutao, a family can buy a 50-square-meter room with a separate bathroom, and that is considered a successful life.

Hamilton, as a top master of magic, has only 4 rams in his house, and it is also rewarded by the duke, which is about the same size as Lawson's sunny building in the north.

The rooms in the Rheinent family's mansion are on average three stories high, with a total of 500 independent rooms, each of which is more than 100 square meters, and the living facilities are also very complete, which is definitely much better than the previous accommodation conditions of these mages.

When he got here, Rosen instructed his attendants to change the door number of the mansion directly to "The Family Compound of the Research Bureau of the Great Floating City", and then took Sir Hamilton into it.

"Master, this house is very large, of which the main courtyard covers an area of 20 rams, with beautiful scenery and luxurious facilities, there are more than 40 luxurious rooms, if you don't dislike it, you and your family will live in the main courtyard?"

Hamilton liked the mansion as soon as he entered it, because it was so much better than his previous home in Raging Waves.

He personally does not have high requirements for material conditions, but who doesn't want a better life for his family?

Watching his wife and children sweep away their previous worries and excitedly discuss which room to live in, he couldn't help but have a happy look on his face.

"Earl, I like it very much, thank you."

He handed another piece of information to Lawson: "This is the list and information of this group of mages, you can arrange a place for them to live in the order on the list, so as not to have disputes." ”

This thing is good, and it saves Lawson a lot of trouble at once.

So he handed the list to Harrick, who came with him, and Harrick immediately turned around and arranged it.

Rosen led the Hamiltons into the main courtyard of the mansion.

The main courtyard is semi-detached, somewhat similar to a large quadrangle, surrounded by three-storey white-stone masonry houses, with a well-maintained garden in the middle, and its own chamberlain to help settle Sir Hamilton's family.

By this time the rain had completely stopped, the clouds in the sky had dispersed very much, and the sun was smiling.

Lawson and Hamilton walked along the garden paths, chatting as they went.

As soon as he opened his mouth, Hamilton sighed: "Hey~~ Angry Waves City is completely messed up." ”

Rosen naturally knew the current situation in Angry Waves City, so he pretended not to know and asked, "Did something happen?" ”

"Just the day before yesterday, the Duke declared Master Ravan a traitor to Angry Waves City, and personally led the team, so he copied Master Ravanne's house without saying anything."

"Fortunately, Master Ravan was more vigilant and escaped from Angry Waves City with his family early, so that he could avoid the suffering of prison."

This action also completely intensified the storm, and hundreds of thousands of people braved the rain to march through the streets and surround Thundering Fort to demand an explanation from the Duke. Naturally, the duke couldn't give it, so he shrank in Thundering Castle and couldn't come out. ”

Lawson sighed when he heard this: "The duke is really reckless in doing things." ”

It's not the first time he's heard this, he heard Percy describe it once yesterday, and now he listens to it again, and he still thinks that his father-in-law's style of doing things is really a tiger.

Probably because he didn't have the restraint of his wife, the tiger came out of the cage.

It was exactly as he expected.

It's no wonder that Hamilton is going to flee the city of the Angry Waves early, and the discerning person knows that something is going to happen to the city at a glance.

If you have some ability and don't want to get involved in the storm, you will naturally have to run away.

Hamilton waved his hand with regret on his face: "Don't talk about the duke, let's talk about business." ”

His topic immediately ran to the Great Floating City.

"Earl, in your opinion, what are the key difficulties in building the Great Floating City?"

Rosen has already carefully analyzed it, and then he will talk about it in detail.

"There are three main difficulties, all of which are brought about by 'big'."

There is a fact in this world that is often overlooked, and that is size.

Many people subconsciously think that the performance of a thing can be scaled in equal proportion to its size.

For example, ants can lift objects hundreds of times their own weight, and they subconsciously think that as long as the ant reaches the size of a human, it will be an invincible strongman.

This ignores the increasing boundary effect caused by size changes.

In fact, if an ant is the same size as a human, then because of the huge size change, the cells will supply oxygen, energy, and the weight of the body, all of which will have problems, and whether they can live or not, let alone lift things.

The same goes for the Great Floating City.

Many of the problems that are not a problem in small aircraft become difficult to ignore and must be solved when they are infinitely magnified.

"The first is structural strength."

"Although it is gravitational levitation, the structural strength requirements will be much lower. However, if the size reaches 1 lami, it is impossible to achieve a uniform gravitational field through the floating city, so the strength of the floating city itself must be relied on to counteract most of the uneven forces. ”

"According to my calculations, the Floating City Lord Frame must be a steel structure strengthened with Master Level 5 Petrification, and its total weight may exceed a million Diwen." (Note: One diwin can be counted as one ton.) ）

"In addition, just gathering so much steel is a big problem."

Hamilton was shocked: "This is almost the total steel production of the entire eastern territory in five years, and if it is the city of angry waves alone, those twenty years will not be enough." ”

Rosen made a second point.

"The second is that the source of power is currently using the Celestial Passage Spell to attract sunlight, which is far from enough to support the Great Floating City, and there is an order of magnitude difference in the middle."

Hamilton didn't have much research on the Celestial Passage spell, so he said, "Introduce this spell carefully." ”

Rosen nodded: "The Celestial Passage can be channeled into sunlight through a principle that I don't know, whether it is night or day, or even deep underground, all of which are effective. ”

"But there is a flaw, that is, in a certain volume of space, there is an upper limit to the amount of sunlight that can be received."

"This upper limit is in a space with a length, width and height of 10 meters, and it can only attract the power equivalent to the master's level 8 spell, deducting the conversion consumption of the Shentie core, there is only level 5 of the master left, and after a wave of consumption of the spell itself, only the master level 4 remains."

Hamilton was stunned, a little unintelligible.

"You mean, no matter how many Celestial Passage spells exist in this space, they can't break through this upper limit?"

Lawson nodded: "If 100 are released, then the sunlight of each spell will be divided equally." ”

Because of this, it is possible to push the plane, and the power density is too low to push the large floating city.

After all, there are a large number of functional structures in the Great Floating City, and it is impossible to use all the space to set up the Celestial Passage spell.

Even if you do this, you must set up a large number of Celestial Passage spells, and the failure rate must be amazingly high, and later maintenance will be a disaster.

Of course, this difficulty may be solved with Transcendent Holy Gold, but this thing is absolutely secret, and the performance is not perfect.

At present, everyone has just arrived, and their personality background is not clear, so Lawson will not talk about it for the time being.

He continued with the third point.

"The last one is the problem of mutual cooperation between mages."

"In such a large floating city, a gravitational spell will definitely not be able to support the sky, and many spells must be coordinated together, and this requires hundreds, or even tens of thousands of mages to guide together."

"Light is levitation, so it's okay to say that you can use constancy to maintain buoyancy. But since it is floating, the biggest advantage is that it can move.

"When moving, how do you cooperate tacitly, how to work together, or a mage suddenly feels unwell and has diarrhea, how to fill the vacancy in time, in short, just thinking about it makes people feel a headache."

Rosen's feeling is that even if the Great Floating City can float into the sky with manpower alone, it will definitely not float for long, and it may fall from the sky at any time.

At that time, it will not be a large floating city, but a man-made large meteorite.

Hamilton could also hear the blood vessels in his forehead throb suddenly.

"It's much harder than my vaping weapon, does the Earl have a solution?"

Rosen spread his hands: "My idea is to develop a magic weapon that can automatically cast spells. ”

Hamilton followed suit.

"Why do I think it's harder than getting the mages to work with each other?"

Rosen smiled and lifted a finger, a little mana appearing on his fingertips.

When the mana detachs from the fingers, it automatically condenses into a ball, and then begins to glow for 3 seconds before disappearing into thin air.

"Master, since mana can automatically be converted into a light spell of illumination, why can't it automatically be converted into a traction gravity?"

"If the principle in between can be studied thoroughly, the automatic spell should be solved."

"At that time, using a large number of Star Mystery Gems to store mana, you only need to press a switch, and the mana in it can automatically flow into the gravitational magic circle and automatically turn into gravity, which can completely liberate the mage from repetitive and tedious spell-casting activities."

Hamilton nodded slowly, and couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that you young people are still active, I'm really old~~"

Rosen's face was blank and he sighed softly.

"Master, I'm just grinding my mouth, and there is still a hundred thousand rumi to really realize."

Hamilton showed a hint of confusion in his eyes: "You're right, I don't know if I can see the Great Floating City rise from Moby Dick Island in my life." ”

There was a slight hesitation, but it was quickly dispelled by him, and he began to ask practical questions.

"Earl, how much money do you plan to invest in the Research Bureau in the early stage?"

"I've just made some money lately. So in this first phase, I will invest 3 million crowns. ”

Hamilton laughed: "For your generosity, I must use these three million kronor to go forward ten thousand ramits." ”

Rosen also laughed: "Master, you still have to pay attention to your body." When the money is gone, you can make it again, and if your body is damaged, it is difficult to recover. ”

Hamilton didn't care.

"A mortal's life is just a few decades, if you don't take advantage of this time to do something big, it's not like working in vain."

He had a look of gearing up: "After settling down today, I'll start doing it tomorrow!" ”

"As you wish, Master."

By the afternoon, Hamilton's group of mages had all settled, and the next day, three million crowns of research funds had been disbursed as scheduled.

Hamilton was indeed a great talent, and under his arrangement, the Great Floating City Research Bureau quickly got on the right track with the wild speed of a warrior's charge.

Lawson would often go around a few laps to check on progress, share his thoughts, or help solve some problems.

At the same time, it also provides more outstanding talents for the Research Bureau.

And for most of the rest of the time, he was building planes for the prince.

One after another, the more you build, the smoother it becomes.

Not only did he have a smooth hand, but also the more than 100 refining apprentices who assisted him in building airplanes.

The chief apprentice, Lotana, has been qualified to replace Rosen in 6 percent.

Except for the Shentie core with its intricate and intricate curved surface, the shape of an airplane, and the high-quality Star Mystery Gem, the other parts can be handled by the refining apprentices.

As a result, Rosen easily set up another "Aircraft Manufacturing Bureau", the first acting director was himself, and the deputy director was the chief apprentice Lotana.

Why the Acting Director?

Because this director will be handed over to Gendelloni in the future.

After a month and a half of construction, the manufacturing bureau was able to produce an airplane in one day, and there was still a lot of free time every day, so there was no delay in telling Fischl stories at all.

Just as he was talking, he suddenly received a communication from Afu.

"Come to Xuegai Mountain, my sister wants to see you."

Afu's sister is naturally Scarletana, and Rosen didn't dare to slack off, and immediately rushed to Xuegai Mountain.
