Chapter 421: The True Appearance of the Continent of the Gods (2/3)
Early the next morning.
Rosen took the theoretical method of achieving low field strength and asked him about his ideas one by one.
After asking around, each master said that although the theory is fine, it is very difficult to turn it into practice.
I am afraid that it will require a lot of money and manpower to invest, and it may not be possible to get good results.
After all, mana exists on the basis of matter, and in order to truly achieve low field strength, it is necessary to find material materials with theoretical predictive properties.
No material can be found, everything is empty words.
Just like everyone knows that perfect guidance is a good thing, with this material, you can achieve many things that you can't think of, and you are also doing everything possible to pursue the perfect guidance material.
So far, it's been a dream.
But no matter what, things still have to be done.
Because the value of shooting spy satellites in space and observing the enemy's movements in real time is too high.
However, Rosen doesn't plan to do it himself.
Because his original purpose was to enter space to see the Continent of the Gods, and now going to space has become a difficult problem that cannot be solved in a short time, but the original intention cannot be delayed.
It just so happened that the second apprentice, Van Damont, also had good abilities and a fairly good grasp of the mana field equation.
As for George Bernard Shaw, he was too young, only 14 years old. Anvinia, more than mana, not enough theory.
There is also an Emilia, but she is an extraordinary person, so naturally she can't be called at will.
So Van Damont is the best.
Rosen approached him: "It's up to you to set up a low-field strength laboratory." ”
Van Damont was a little confused: "Mentor, this matter is so important, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you." ”
He's only 18, and there are many logic mages in the East who are more powerful than him.
"There are many logic mages who are stronger than you, but there are not many who surpass you in theoretical knowledge, and even fewer can make me trust."
"You take the lead, take George Bernard Shaw and Anvinia, and get this lab out together."
"In this matter, I am the main person in charge, you are the main executor, and if you encounter a problem, you will come to ask me, which can be regarded as a test given to you by your mentor."
Now that there is a mentor in town, Van Damont's heart is settled.
I've been studying for so long, and it's really time to share my mentor's worries.
"Yes, Mentor, I will do my best to do this well."
"Hmm~ Then this Space Research Bureau is in your hands for the time being."
So, 18-year-old Van Damont was full of ambition, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to do something big that would impress the whole golden land.
Lawson continued to find a way to explore the Continent of the Gods.
Since he can't go up into space, he will lower some altitude and conduct a high-altitude reconnaissance.
How high?
Tentatively set at 50 lami high.
Because he wanted to cross the sea and might encounter the interception of the Abyss Demon God, Rosen decided to conduct experiments with an autonomously flying reconnaissance plane first.
In this regard, it is natural to look to the Aircraft Manufacturing Bureau.
"Jenny, I want a plane that can fly on my own."
Gendelloni immediately shook her head: "It can't be done." ”
Rosen immediately lowered his requirements: "Then I want an airplane that can use electromagnetic waves to remotely control flight." ”
Gendeloni thought for a moment: "This is okay, but it's still a little hard. ”
After thinking about it, she proposed two difficult points.
"First, the technology of automatic electromagnetic casting is not yet mature. Second, the technology of long-range precise electromagnetic wave control is also not perfect. ”
A solution is then proposed.
"But I've heard that Master Hamilton has an apprentice in these two fields, and it's already getting initial results."
So, Rosen summoned the corresponding mage again.
This is a team of mages, there are 8 people, five men and three women, the weakest are all high-level mages, the average age is 32 years old, it is a good time to be in the prime of life.
The mage who took the lead was called Heramer, who was already a level 1 archmage, 36 years old, and Hamilton's fifth apprentice.
It's not too old, but it's bald in the middle of the head, revealing a shiny brain shell, and a belly that's not too big or small, and at first glance it's a standard technical otaku.
As soon as he heard Rosen's request, he immediately said: "Lord Duke, as long as there are sufficient funds and flight technical support, within a month, my assistants and I will be able to build a usable remotely controlled high-speed gravity plane." ”
Rosen clapped his hands: "Then let's do it!" ”
But it's not enough.
The aircraft can be controlled, which can only ensure that the aircraft flies to a sufficient reconnaissance distance, but how to transmit the results of reconnaissance back also requires talents who specialize in the eye of insight.
A group of talents in this area have also been cultivated, and they are basically nested in a research sub-bureau called Eagle Eye, and the mages in it are specifically responsible for improving the Eye of Insight.
So I also recruited a batch.
In the end, Gendeloni sent a group of apprentices to build airplanes, Hamilton to produce a group of automatic electromagnetic spells, and Eagle Eye to form a group of photographers.
In the reconnaissance group, with Heramer as the executive deputy leader, they cooperated with each other and began to build a long-range remote-controlled high-altitude reconnaissance aircraft.
After forming the team, Rosen waited for the results
He was not idle, running back and forth between the various research bureaus and manufacturing bureaus, playing the role of Mr. Key and Firefighter.
After all, in addition to the duke, he is also a master of precision refiners, and many precision core components are the best for him.
At the same time, he is also a master of supercomputing, and many tedious computing tasks are solved by him.
In the blink of an eye, 1.1 million kroner was invested, and more than 20 days have passed.
Sure enough, Master Heramer made a finished remote-piloted plane.
The plane is not large, with a wingspan of less than 6 meters and a weight of less than 1280 dira, which is about the same as a combat drone in a previous life.
The archmage touched the shiny skull and introduced Rosen to the properties of the remote-controlled plane.
"Lord Duke, the maximum remote control distance of this thing is 4,000 meters, the maximum flight is 45 meters, the maximum speed is 1.9 times the standard speed of sound, and the power is automatically provided by the Extraordinary Sacred Gold, and after starting, it can fly continuously for 12 days."
"Of course, 4,000 rami is too close to meet the Duke's needs."
"The idea is that by releasing a batch of suspended electromagnetic relay stations in the middle of the process, the control distance can be increased to a maximum of 50,000 ramites."
Rosen nodded in satisfaction: "Has the levitation relay station been finished product?" ”
"The hovering relay station is very simple, and 35 have been built so far, forming two control links, one for primary use and the other for standby."
"Redundancy is also set up, and it is very thoughtful, so can you fly today?"
Heramo patted his chest and looked confident: "Of course, I can fly now." ”
"Then let's start experimenting."
Heramer began to set the parameters, and about ten minutes later, the remote-controlled high-altitude reconnaissance plane made a 'buzz~' sound and rushed into the blue sky.
At the same time, another group of high-level mages began to control the levitation relay station to rush into the sky as an electromagnetic signal relay.
In the time since, Heramer has controlled the flight of the remote-controlled aircraft through a rather crude eye of insight.
Rosen looked closely at the Eye of Insight and saw that the pattern on it was extremely rough, so he replaced it with small glowing dots.
Among them, the red moving dot is the remote-controlled aircraft, the blue is the relay station, and there are small dots flashing next to it, showing the altitude, speed and direction of the remote-controlled aircraft in a special coding way.
Seeing that Lawson was paying attention to the screen, the Insight Mage on the side immediately explained it softly.
"Lord Duke, these signals are all transmitted by remote-controlled aircraft."
"Of course, the best way is to send back an accurate image directly, but the electromagnetic signal is very badly lost in long-distance transmission, and the image is completely distorted when it comes back, so this rough but reliable way is used."
Rosen nodded in approval: "Just be useful, and improve step by step in the future." ”
After waiting for a while, Heramo, who was in control of the plane, said, "Lord Duke, the plane has already flown over Moby Dick Island and reached the sky above the Abyssal Sea. ”
"At the moment the altitude is 20 meters, the speed is 1.3 times the speed of sound, according to the data, and so on the signal seems to be interfered with, I immediately increased the altitude."
"The disturbance has always been, but gradually diminishes as it rises at high speed."
"At an altitude of 40 meters, the interference is still there, but it is within acceptable limits."
At an altitude of 40 meters, the air is already very thin and the temperature is very, very low, and it is difficult for even the extraordinary to hold on for long.
For example, Scarletana, she made it clear that in this extreme environment, she can fly at most 1 hour with her own strength.
If it is a golden god, it is estimated that it can last for about 8 hours, and even if it can fly over the abyss sea and reach the continent of the gods, its strength will be greatly lost.
This is still knowing that there is a continent on the other side, if you don't know, you will fly aimlessly, then no one dares to take this risk.
And if the altitude is too low, it will be seriously disturbed by unknown existence, which explains why no transcendent can cross the abyssal sea.
Heramer let out a long breath and reported to Rosen: "Lord Duke, we are now about 300 meters away from Moby Dick Island, and we should be above the vast deep sea. ”
Rosen nodded: "Continue east." ”
After that, there were no accidents, and Heramer and his team cooperated to control the plane all the way east.
An hour, two hours, three hours, little by little.
Every 1 hour, several mages rotate control.
Lawson watched from the side, and after watching for a long time, he learned it, and when he saw that a few mages were tired enough, he simply said, "I'll control it." ”
Replace him and continue to fly all the way, about 2,000 kilometers per hour.
After flying like this for more than ten hours, the controllers were reincarnated, but the inexplicable interference suddenly disappeared, and a flashing green signal suddenly appeared on the screen.
Master Heramer was in high spirits: "Duke, this is a detector designed by us based on infrared light sensing, and a green signal appears, indicating that there is land below. ”
In other words, on the other side of the sea, there is indeed a continent.
Based on a total of 18 hours of flight time, the width of the Abyssal Sea reached a staggering 36,000 rams, a desperate distance.
Rosen's spirits were also lifted, and according to the rough map given by Amilia, the blind plane circled around the 45 meters in the Continent of the Gods, and then continued to take pictures remotely with extraordinary photopainting spells.
After about a dozen turns, the remote-controlled plane was controlled to return home.
Naturally, it took another 18 hours to fly back.
When the plane returned home and landed on the test site, 39 hours had passed since takeoff.
At this time, looking at the remote-controlled aircraft, we can see that the overall structure has remained intact, but the originally smooth surface has become frosted, as if it has been sandpapered.
Several Insight Mages immediately walked over, opened the hatch, carefully took out the precision photographic camera hidden inside, and then began to collect photographic paintings.
About half an hour later, a thick stack of photographs was placed in front of Rosen, and there were thousands of them.
Most of the photographs are a little blurry, and they are all taken of mountains and rivers, but there are also some photographs of cities on other continents.
Rosen was very satisfied, and he gave an order first: "The high-altitude reconnaissance group continues to work hard to develop a stronger reconnaissance aircraft, and it is best to see the situation in the Continent of the Gods in real time." ”
"R&D funding is not a problem, there will be a big reward, and if you do a good job, you will be canonized."
With the duke's personal guarantee, then naturally everything is fine.
The mages, led by Heramer, were demoralized and immediately regrouped and threw themselves into the improvement of the reconnaissance aircraft.
Rosen began to take a closer look at the photo.
Looking at it, his brow gradually furrowed.
'The Continent of the Gods is four times as big as the land of gold. ’
There are a lot of cities, they are large, the technology seems to be quite advanced, and you can see a lot of low-flying objects. ’
Looking at it, Rosen saw a special photo painting and was shocked.
'What a big tree~~~What a big person~~'
The photograph was taken from the side, and you can see that the tree is at least a rami high, and it extends out at least a rami, and a two-headed giant sits faintly under the tree.
Although the image is rather blurry, Lawson has a computational core to assist in the analysis.
After some image processing, he could see the general appearance of the giant.
Carrying two heads on his shoulders, he is at least 100 meters tall, and seems to be reading a huge book in his hand.
"This can't be Karzrod, right?!"
I'm not sure at the moment, I'll find out later.
He continued to look at the picture.
It can be seen that about 50 meters away from the giant tree, there is an extremely magnificent complex.
It seems to be all made of stone, and the tallest building reaches 100 semimi
According to rough estimates, it is at least three times the size of Angry Waves City, and at an altitude of 1 meter, there are a large number of flying objects, as many as fish swimming in the sea.
It can be seen that the flying objects are large and small, the big ones are hundreds of semimes, and the small ones are more than a dozen semimies, but they are not gravitationally driven, but airships carrying large balloons.
After a look, Rosen came to a lot of conclusions.
'The whole city is made of stone, most likely not natural stone, but a new building technology, probably a mature and stable building spell. ’
'The large-scale use of balloon airships, rather than hot air balloons, indicates that the difference in the density of various gases has been recognized, and the path of discerning the basic elements has been embarked. ’
Therefore, the development level of the Continent of the Gods is indeed much higher than that of the Golden Continent, and it is a high-level civilization naturally developed in this other world. ’
Without his appearance, hundreds of years later, the Golden Continent would likely be far behind the Continent of the Gods.
At that time, even if he barely escaped the transcendent rebellion, he would be crushed by the power of Gao Wen from another continent.
In short, no matter what, there is no escape from a tragic fate.
And even if Lawson appeared, the Golden Land surpassed the other party in the highest achievement of mortal magic, but it still lagged far behind in transcendent magic.
Luckily, I found it early, otherwise it would have been really difficult. ’
