The heavy metal plate fell, and the end of the closed passage was opened again, and some noises could be faintly heard from above the secret passage on the other side of the gate.

Seeing that the heavy gate was cut open by the welding torch on his own maintenance robot, Morey, who was driving the maintenance machinery, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and he drove away the sweat beads on his forehead while sitting in the cab, and slowly lifted the barrier of the maintenance machinery cab.

Poking his head out of the machine and looking at Lucius standing behind the maintenance machine, especially when he saw the approving smile on the latter's face, Morey couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

jumped out of the cab, ran to Lucius and said with a smile: "Hehe, you are right, as long as you dare to do it, there is nothing that cannot be done, I, I really did it." ”

Lucius seemed to see himself many years ago, when he was still a child, and he had just experienced being surrounded and suppressed by the Holy See and the Temple, and was sent to the alchemy tower of the old alchemist by his father.

It was also the old alchemist's unraveling that allowed him to gradually come out of the shadows, and completely open his heart to allow himself to see the surrounding Qiē.

At that time, the first thing that Lecius came into contact with was also a mechanical product, a mechanical glider.

Because no one had used it for a long time, the glider was already rusty, and many parts could not be used, so Lucius was bent on repairing the glider.

As a result, he buried himself in various mechanical books, and finally fell in love with all kinds of machinery, and finally embarked on the path of the current mechanic, it can be said that for Lucius, although he was in a different situation from Morey, but he was the same as Morey now, through the processing and use of guò machinery, found his own self-confidence.

And the reason why Lucius chose to believe Morey. It is precisely because he sees some of his original shadows in Morey that he will unconsciously maintain a good impression of him in his heart.

He smiled at Morey, then turned to the crowd and said, "Alright, the passage has been opened, now we need to be more careful, remember, try not to alarm the mechanical guards inside the port." ”

As he spoke, he instructed Palup and Renault: "You have to remember that it is best to find the power system of the entire port first and cut off the power source of the port. That would make our raid easier, be careful, I don't want to get into any big trouble, which would have very serious consequences. ”

Listening to Lucius's instructions, Parip and Renor nodded solemnly, and then the two leaders turned and waved behind them, ordering their respective warriors to start entering the gates.

After Parip and Renault's men entered one after another, Mogupatin asked with some confusion, "Why don't you let me try to control the mechanical guards above?"

Lucius looked at Mogupatin and said, "It will indeed be very beneficial for us to control those mechanical guards. But once you control the mechanical guards, your whereabouts will inevitably be exposed, and you will be immediately discovered by the mechanical castle, in that case. It will also make the Mechanical Castle aware of our plans earlier. ”

Beludi chimed in, "Lucius is right, since we are raiding to avoid a war with the Mechanical Castle now, we should keep a low profile as much as possible. The Will of the Mechanical Castle cannot be allowed to perceive where we are. ”

Mogupatin nodded in acknowledging Lucius and Beluti: "Well, you guys are very thoughtful, I'm a little reckless." It may be that I was carried away by the shun lì of this time. ”

Hearing this, Lucius smiled and patted Mogupatin's shoulder and said, "Hehe, don't feel sorry, you are also trying to save our manpower and time, but a short-term victory is not what we are pursuing, we should look further." ”

"Look a little further ahead? You mean, do you think we'll be able to defeat the Mechanical Castle and retake the Grass Sea Plain?"

Lucius smiled and shook his head and said, "No, we don't want to take the mechanical castle, we just want to remove the threat of that castle to the creatures on the plains, so that the plains can return to the hands of the creatures, as for the mechanical castle, I think it may be more appropriate to leave it to Hopkin." ”

"What? You're going to give the mechanical castle to that little girl, what do you think? Do you think that little girl can inherit that mechanical castle?"

Seeing Mogupatin's puzzled look, Lucius smiled calmly and said, "Why not? She is also a descendant of the Shamrock family, and she is a descendant of the Clover family, which was born and raised in the plains. ”

Mogupatin's face was full of incredulity, and he looked at Lucius carefully for a long time before he asked in disbelief, "What you said is true? Are you really going to give the mechanical castle to that little girl?"

"People always need to grow and experience, if you don't try, I'm afraid you will never know what is suitable for you, not to mention that Hopkin is young and has a lot of time to learn. ”

Mogupatine was dumbfounded by Lucius's answer, not knowing how to respond, but he did feel that Lucius's decision was too hasty.

And Lucius didn't give Mogupatin a chance to speak, turned to look inside the gate and said, "Okay, let's talk about those questions later, now we have to catch up as much as possible, otherwise something may go wrong." ”

With that, Lucius stepped through the gate first, and Morey naturally drove the maintenance machinery to follow.

Mogupatin and Belletti looked at each other, and the two mechanical spirits did not speak, and at the same time took a step and rushed through the gate.

On the other side of the gate is a cave, not a passageway, but a very spacious basement with a very high temperature inside.

As soon as Mogupatin and Belletti stepped in, they could clearly distinguish that this place inside the gate was probably the power core of the entire port, otherwise it would not have been shrouded in high temperatures.

Pahip saw Morey follow Lucius in, and quickly walked in front of Morey, tilting his head and shouting, "Hey, boy, was this the same the last time you came?"

Morey quickly lowered the body of the maintenance machine, and simply got down from the machine to the ground, and then replied to Palup: "Yes, I came through that gate last time, and I have been here since then. The exit is over there, and I searched for it for a long time the last time I visited. ”

Following Morey's point, the group soon noticed that on the other side of the basement, there seemed to be several spiral stairs leading to the ground, and they also saw a huge steam engine with a red glow.

Lucius's eyes lit up, and he smiled and said, "I'm really lucky, I didn't expect that we really entered the power room of the port." As long as we stop that steam engine, it will definitely be able to cut off the power system of the port, and if we go up again, we should not be attacked in any way. ”

As soon as Lucius's excited words fell, Mogupatin's voice came from behind him: "But the question is, how do you turn it off? This guy is an antique ......."

Before Mogupatin could finish speaking, Lucius grabbed the words: "I know, it is the independent product of the early clover family, and it belongs to the Futaba Type 4 steam engine. It can provide sufficient kinetic energy, but the disadvantage is that it will release a large amount of heat, and a lot of the kinetic energy generated will be lost as heat energy. ”

Mogupatin didn't expect it. Lucius also studied antique steam engines, but he did not agree with the defects mentioned by Lucius: "The loss of heat energy is inevitable, and the Futaba 4 is a very advanced steam engine, and the kinetic energy produced is sufficient." Even if you lose some of it, it's nothing. ”

Hearing Mogupatin say this, Lucius couldn't help frowning slightly, turned to stare at Mogupatin and said, "It's not right for you to think so. The founder once said that the key to the advancement of steam machinery lies in how to solve the problem of heat loss. ”

Mogupatine didn't expect that Lucius would be so serious on this issue, so he couldn't help but sigh meaningfully: "That's just an ideal, but in reality, who can really solve the problem of heat energy loss? Kinetic energy generation will always be accompanied by heat generation, and part of the kinetic energy will be lost in the form of thermal energy." ”

Lucius saw Mogupatin sighing, but smiled and said, "Hehe, I have already worked out some methods, but they have not yet been formed, but I think it is still possible to solve the problem of heat loss." ”

Mogupatin shook his head and said: "Your solution is only to reconvert the heat energy and reduce the loss of kinetic energy, but it still hasn't been able to completely solve the problem, but those still need to be studied in the future, now, let's still think about how to stop that guy, right?"

For the steam engine to turn off the Futaba IV, Mogupatin is very unsure, because at the beginning of the design of the steam engine, it was intended to be made into a perpetual motion machine, but the perpetual motion machine was difficult to manufacture at all, and finally this type of steam engine was manufactured, although it was not a perpetual motion machine, but there was almost no off switch.

In other words, once the steam engine is running, it is very difficult to turn it off, and even Mogupatin, a mechanical demon, does not dare to say that it can be turned off.

In particular, the most critical problem was that it was necessary to shut down the port without attracting the attention of the mechanical guards above, and could only be closed by violent means, in which case Mogupatin was completely helpless.

And Lucius, in the face of Mogupatine's questioning, smiled confidently, walked to the steam engine in a few steps, and walked around the steam engine.

Because the temperature of the steam engine was too high, just walking around it closely, Lucius suddenly sweated like rain, and instantly seemed to have all the water in his body squeezed out.

However, Lucius did not care, but continued to approach the steam engine step by step, until everyone else was terrified, and Mogupatine and Belluti planned to rush in to save Lucius.

He stopped suddenly, took out a metal rod from the metal box around his waist, slowly extended the metal rod, and finally pierced directly into a small part hole in the steam engine, before the heat was transferred to his hand, Lucius turned the other side of the metal rod in his hand vigorously.

The next moment, the steam engine suddenly spewed out a large amount ......of hot steam, enveloping the entire basement in a blink of an eye, so that everyone couldn't see the surrounding things clearly. (To be continued......)

PS: It's not in good shape today, there's only one change, and I'll make up for it tomorrow......
