When all the construction personnel left the danger area, Jialan carried out a dazzling and complicated operation on the many levers and magic control platforms on the console, and then everyone felt a slight shock from the huge storm shark, and slowly floated from the bracket lightly, and quickly rose into the air.

Looking out from the transparent alchemy glass plate inlaid in the control room, this big guy who couldn't float at all in the eyes of the gnomes really flew!

"It's... This... It can't be!"

The gnomes couldn't find any words other than disbelief, they had just seen with their own eyes that the huge air sac above their heads was empty and unfilled, but it was actually flying, which was beyond their comprehension.

As an expert in floating boats, the old dwarf Belen quickly estimated the general situation of this "Storm Shark" catamaran floating platform with reference to the data provided by Jialan.

Two rigid airbags with a length of 75 meters and a diameter of 20 meters, plus a bridge airbag platform connecting the two rigid airbags, can provide a total of more than 1,200 tons of lift!

Due to the absence of heavy additions such as masts and sails, this means that in addition to the hull with a dead weight of more than 60 tons, the floating platform has a load capacity of almost 1,140 tons!

And because of the relationship between the two-body airbags, the feather iron pod directly mounted on the skeleton of the internal cage of the airbag has a very large internal area, connecting the platform between the two pods, and it is even wide enough to hold a dance party or polo on it!

Although incomprehensible, such a float boat that is not filled with "light air". How did he get such a huge floating lift, but Belen, who also has the identity of a magician, knew that all this was probably related to those strange magic arrays and magic devices on the ship's hull.

But what made him strange was that. Those magic arrays and magic devices, he, a junior wind magician and intermediate alchemist, couldn't understand them at all...... No wonder the other party didn't mind them taking a closer look at this unfinished floating boat, it is estimated that even if they studied it carefully, they would not be able to understand those magical facilities!

If anyone can easily understand a magician's masterpiece, then the magician will not seem so mysterious and noble in the eyes of civilians. Even if the viewer is also a magician.

When Jialan lifted the Storm Shark to an altitude of nearly a thousand meters and began to accelerate its flight, all the gnomes were stunned. A terrible wind whistled from the strange silver metal pipes on the floating boat, and then the floating platform rushed forward as if it had been pushed hard.

Due to the surprise. All the gnomes were knocked to the ground by the powerful force of the push. After they got up, they lay on the alchemy glass and looked out in amazement, the huge Storm Shark was like a real giant shark, splitting the sea of clouds with the wind and waves, and speeding at an astonishing speed!

The gnomes were shocked, this terrible flight speed was something they had never experienced. When, in people's impression of the huge volume. The floating boat, which always seems slow and has a somewhat lazy attitude, can also show such a swift side?

Belen was frightened by the state shown by the Storm Shark, stammered and pointed to the alchemy glass window, the clouds that were being smashed by the Storm Shark piece by piece, and said incoherently: "This ...... I'm afraid this kind of speed is more than 100 kilometers per hour, right?"

"Well, yes! Due to many technical and material problems, the construction of the Storm Shark has only been completed by less than a third so far, and there are too many flaws and unreasonable designs that are still being studied and revised, so the current performance status is not stable. ”

Jialan said helplessly: "So its normal sailing speed can only reach 100 kilometers per hour, but in the case of accelerating with the 'jet tube', it can increase the speed to 300 kilometers per hour in a short time, and in my design, it is expected that the completed version of the Storm Shark will reach a speed of 700~800 kilometers per hour...... Or even higher!"

Belen's eyes tended to bulge, and with his knowledge of the floatship, it was difficult for him to accept the data that Jialan had just said, but the facts were already in front of him, and the speed of the Storm Shark was gradually increasing with the loud wind howl!

For the theories and data that Jialan said just now, Belen suddenly felt that he felt haggard, because as a float boat expert, he couldn't understand it at all, this was completely a new system of artificial aerial vehicles, and the degree of advancement was far beyond their imagination.

It's ridiculous that they even suspected that someone else had stolen their dwarf clan's airship technique!?

Not to mention Belen's surprise, Jialan himself was also speechless, because he designed and built this strange flying machine according to the theories in the foreign knowledge in his mind, but because of the differences in foreign civilizations, many of them were incomprehensible to him.

What he couldn't understand, he could only replace it with the knowledge he had in the arcane realm, not to mention the various material issues involved...... Most of the materials mentioned by the foreign knowledge do not exist in this world he is in!

For example, when it comes to a material called "nylon", Jialan is very suspicious that it is the leather of some kind of dragonborn creature, but in the "Eberonic realm" where he is located, there is no dragonborn creature called "nylon", so he naturally cannot find this material used to make airbags.

Another material that can be used to replace "nylon" is "polyester", Jialan is even more unaware of what it is, and as a last resort, it can only be replaced by deep-sea fish skin with excellent toughness.

There are many problems like this, which leads to the exotic artificial aircraft originally called "hot air balloons", which gradually began to undergo some kind of wonderful "localization mutation", coupled with the design and construction process, the strange ideas that kept coming to his mind were added, and finally it became the current strange appearance.

Originally, the "hot air balloon" was just a very simple aircraft, but under his continuous "inspiration", the design and construction of the Storm Shark became more and more complex, so that now, he is a little powerless to find that he may not be able to complete this strange aircraft with an increasing amount of work in a short time.

The arcane knowledge he mastered was not enough to realize all the strange ideas that had sprung up in his mind, and he needed to learn a deeper level of arcane knowledge, and this was the first time he felt that the knowledge he had learned was not enough since he woke up in this era.

In particular, the huge and mixed foreign memories in his mind were gradually parsed by him, which made him feel more and more that the knowledge of foreign civilizations was profound, and it was a civilization system completely different from the "Arcane Civilization" in which he was located.

If he wants to understand these profound and complex knowledge of foreign civilizations, Jialan has to spend a lot of energy to learn, the difficulty of which is not as simple as his learning of arcane knowledge, and the most terrifying thing is that when the arcane knowledge and exotic knowledge in his mind collide, the difficulty will increase in geometric progression!

Perhaps because some of the things in the original design were replaced by his arcane knowledge, the "hot air balloon" has become different from the original performance, such as the "air" filled in the "hot air balloon" and the "fuel" used to heat the air.

Yes!

In exotic knowledge, the hot air balloon relies on flames to heat the air, and this natural heating phenomenon makes the hot air balloon fly, but under Jialan's initial misunderstanding, what he fills in the air bag is not pure air, but the "air element"!

Although "air" can be said to be a natural form of the "air element", but in terms of nature, the "air element" is not a "natural substance", but a "arcane substance".

This discovery was also confirmed with subsequent experiments, and the result was that the performance of the Storm Shark under the auspices of Jialan has far exceeded the performance of a hot air balloon, and has become completely out of common sense.

This situation, while a good thing in terms of improving the performance of artificial aerial vehicles, is a disaster in terms of production, and what can be made with only cheap materials is now costing astronomical amounts of materials!

Not to mention the feather iron used to make the skeleton of the net cage and the deep-sea fish skin used to make the skin, the Storm Shark sailed at a speed of 300 km/h for an hour, and almost consumed 5 kilograms of wind element magic crystals, and the magic crystals consumed for one voyage are a huge amount of money in itself!

You must know that the cheapest black iron-grade magic crystal in the Dao, a wind element magic crystal the size of a little fingernail, is worth 5 silver jims at a market price, and its weight is only about 10 grams, so that the magic crystal consumed by the Storm Shark in an hour is worth 250 gold talans!

That's it, without considering the fire elemental magic crystals consumed during the flight, which provide buoyancy and lift, where is this flight? This is simply playing with burning Jintaran, and the cost is too high!

(Lao Sao: Here is a reference data, Boeing 737 consumes about 16,000 yuan of fuel per hour, and the purchasing power of 1 Quintalan is roughly equivalent to 100 soft girls, that is, the Storm Shark consumes more than 25,000~30,000 yuan of fuel per hour.) (To be continued......)
