Chapter 408: Secret: The Cloud of the Sun Empire's Throne Change
At this moment, Byron, who saw the natural rubber, seemed to hear the roar of the machine, pistons, levers, and gears combined with each other.
In the interweaving of fire and steam, a huge sound echoed in the cranial cavity to form a solemn chant:
"How riveting and steaming, the turret is the greatest! Billions of stars, billions of turrets! Multi-riveting steam, turret supremacy! Billions of turrets, billions of glory! โ
"Ring the bell once, push the lever, start the piston and pump; Ring the bell twice, press the button, the engine ignites, ignites the turbine, and injects life;
Ring the bell three times and sing in unison to praise the God of Chances! โ
Violet, who was spiritually connected to Byron, also felt his irrepressible excitement.
There is also a key word that reverberates repeatedly along with the hymn - boiling hot water!
At present, many tower sequence craftsmen and naturalists, including Violet, are still at the stage of arguing about the development route of whale oil power.
Byron, however, has found the ultimate answer to the whale oil power revolution, or all forms of energy revolution, that is most suitable for the worlds of no demons and no demons.
Whether it's coal, diesel, natural gas, or even nuclear power, as long as it is connected to an external energy source, it can all be used to help the steam engine boil hot water.
"But why is it that after many energy revolutions, hot water is still boiled, more precisely boiled water?"
Byron had wondered about this question before, but the technological upgrade route of his previous life had already explained everything.
From coal to nuclear power, the act of "boiling water" seems to be simple to the point of simplicity, but in fact it is a scientific, efficient and widely applicable energy conversion method.
One of the most critical reasons is heat engine efficiency!
According to the second law of thermodynamics, there is an upper limit on the efficiency of heat energy when it is converted into other forms of energy โ the Carnot efficiency.
Carnot efficiency indicates that the efficiency of a heat engine depends on the temperature difference between the high and low heat sources in which it operates.
The generation and expansion of steam provides an extremely efficient way to achieve this energy conversion between high and low temperatures.
Boiling water to produce steam, which is then propelled by steam turbines, not only makes efficient use of energy, but also makes it easier to achieve safe control and maintenance in engineering.
On top of that, the steam engine can be used for a variety of heat sources, making it a great bridge between different iterations of energy technology!
In addition to steel and copper pipes, the most critical thing to restrain water vapor at high temperature and high pressure is rubber.
Natural rubber may not be up to the task, but vulcanized rubber is the perfect companion for steam engines due to its high elasticity, heat resistance, high tensile strength, and insolubility in organic solvents.
Since boiling water and vulcanized rubber were the common choices of those engineers and countless mechanical experts in the previous life, Byron also unceremoniously practiced the doctrine of taking.
Moreover, it is known that the most important thing in military products is not trendy but stable.
Whether it is the crest or trough of essentia tides, it is the Age of Mythology, the Silver Age, or the Age of Oblivion.
Boiling water must be the most universal and stable way of doing work, which is more in line with the human race than another transcendent route that needs to rely on essentia to achieve it.
"As long as I light up this technology tree, I can go all the way to the end on the road of more, bigger and stronger.
The strongest steam engine, the largest steel battleship, and the most turrets represent the most unrivaled power.
Create a world that belongs to steam, where there is no fancy witchcraft, there is just steam that has multiplied to the peak! โ
Once he climbed this technology tree, Byron brought enough knowledge from the other world to give him a glimpse of the future five hundred years later.
In the last life, aircraft carriers and flying machines put an end to the entire era of sea power of cannons, giant ships and mankind.
But in this life, because of the fear of those sky masters of the [Dragon King's Court], and the humans who point their forbidden ability to the full level, I am afraid that there will be a different future.
As long as he can advance to the fourth order, become a fully embodied mythical creature [Daredevil Prince], and continue to survive, sooner or later he will see the day when whale oil steam-powered battleships rule the sea.
"Ex-dreadnoughts, dreadnoughts, super-dreadnoughts, Nelson-class, Bismarck-class, Richelieu-class, Iowa class
Adhering to the violent aesthetics of the military industry of 'big is strong, and more is beautiful', if he doesn't build hundreds of steel monsters in the future, what kind of arms dealer is he? How can he be a pirate king?
This trip to the Solar Empire came at the right time.
ใParadise of BeastsใThis unknown continent is still shrouded in the fog of war, and I don't know how many precious treasures are waiting for me to discover. โ
With excited hearts and trembling hands, Byron picked up the golden bowl with something indescribable, and suddenly looked up at the prince of Atahualpa.
It seemed that because his gaze was too hot, the other party had a misunderstanding, and even a dignified [Son of the Sun] suddenly shuddered.
subconsciously rolled over in the princess's arms and hid her ass behind her.
The wine was also scared to wake up most of the time.
"Goo-dong!"
Some swallowed saliva dryly, their scalps were a little fried, and their hearts were surging:
'So many beauties don't look at it, what do you think I'm doing?'
Although I want wealth, royal power, land, and godhead, I still have a bottom line as a prince.
And, moreover, so many people are watching.'
If he knew what he was thinking, Byron would have summoned the [Bloodhound] on the spot and pulled out all the Y chromosomes in his body with one paw.
But now Byron only cares about the origin of the rubber.
"Your Royal Highness, do you still have any raw materials for making this thing? Where is it produced?
I just need a batch of these materials. It would be great if you could help. โ
Atahualpa also subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said:
"This is the sap of the 'tear tree', which grows in the vast rainforests of the central part of the continent, and there are many of them.
Originally, a shaman inadvertently brought it back while searching for poison, only to discover other uses after adding additional sulfur and heating it.
It's just that this kind of tree can't be grown in the Fire Ring Mountains, and there are no ready-made tear trees in my territory.
But one of my subordinates is responsible for collecting the juice every year to make contraceptives, balls, cushions, and other supplies.
July and August coincide with the harvesting season, and if you want, I can send someone to take you to the rainforest. โ
Byron was overjoyed when he heard this, as long as he knew the location, it would be easy to do, and hurriedly said:
"You don't need to send someone with me, just point me out the general location, and I'll tell my men to do it."
With the prince's order, Byron was soon presented with a very detailed map of the gold plates.
In line with the superb astronomy and mathematics of the Taya Empire, this map is drawn in great detail, and even the essentia tidal flow direction of the corresponding leyline nodes is marked.
Byron only glanced at it, and the Logbook added it to the database.
"Fujin! Foggy! โ
Byron whispered two names.
Two large ravens, black as ink but with golden eyes, flew out of his shadow when they heard the order, circled above him like two fierce falcons, and immediately rushed to the palace.

A vision of God from high in the sky appeared in the bottom of his heart, and the thought moved and disappeared, and the automatic cruise mode was turned on.
"No one knows how to find things better than I do.
It just so happened that all the scourges of the Blood Thirsty Order had come to the New World, and they were a little worried that when the three months were over, they would make trouble again after playing with Redbeard.
When they find those rubber trees, let them study how to integrate rubber trees with weeds, save the long growth cycle of ten years, and greatly improve the yield and quality of rubber.
Then the industrial rubber is harvested, and with the steel of the Riptide Fortress, the whale oil of the Rift Trench, and Violet, the all-in-one witch and craftsman, the pre-industrial puzzle has been completed.
Large-scale whale oil-powered steam engine installation is just around the corner.
Strictly speaking, it is still in the stage of 'extensive grain accumulation', and the Holy Golden Empire, which has not openly emerged, may not be impossible to be the last to come. โ
By the time the feast was over, the rain had stopped.
Byron and Violet walked out of the main hall hand in hand, and rested in the chamber where the guests were entertained under the guidance of a female officer.
Atahualpa, who was still faintly cold in the "partial", did not dare to mention anything about sending people to sleep, so that Byron was relieved.
But I don't know what kind of psychology I had, so I gave Byron a small box when he was leaving.
Inside is a golden illusory contraceptive of the same kind - a third-level holy relic [Happy and Worry-free]:
"Conceptual relics.
Effect: Large contraception.
Designated for use on oneself, another person, or an item, as long as the item is worn on the body, it takes effect immediately.
Ultra-thin and incorporeal, no matter how high the rank is, no matter how keen the feeling is, you can't feel its existence at all.
However, you can enjoy one-click inactivation, conceptually realize contraception, and prevent disease and bacteria, carefree, and let you gallop.
Destiny: Safety first, no 'ji' to take advantage of! โ
This holy relic, which sounds very improper, is somewhat similar to [The Emperor's New Clothes].
But [The Emperor's New Clothes] wore nothing, but thought he was wearing them; This one is obviously already worn, but I think I don't wear it.
"It's really an artifact for people who don't want to take human life and pursue life experience.
But Lancaster has his own clan here, and if I want to use this thing, Daddy will have to chop me with a fruit knife first.
It's good to use it to trap people. โ
Byron kept it in his possession and had already thought of giving it to him.
The group walked through the palace complex, and saw that they were about to walk to the palace room where the guests were entertained, Byron's ears suddenly moved, and the [divine see] stress was activated.
Immediately, through his ears, he "saw" into another remote palace not far away, and a door was quietly pushed open.
Two figures stepped out lightly.
One of them was Kimchi Roca, the captain of the prince's guard who he had just met today.
The other was a graceful black-haired lady who was also dressed like a princess in a jeweled gold silk robe, and had an additional black burqa on her body.
Without them having to speak themselves, Byron also "heard" the smell of hormonal explosions in the man and woman.
The two of them hugged each other before leaving, obviously a pair of wild mandarin ducks who had just enjoyed some fun, sneaking around and not wanting people to find out.
"Shhh In this palace that belongs to the prince, it should be all Atahualpa women, right?
What happened to us on our first day?
The prince had a green meadow on his head?
It shouldn't be possible, a group of dark wizards who have mastered the [Bloodline Original Text] can still be given a cow? It's better to kill yourself. โ
While Byron was thinking a lot, the noble lady took a few turns in the palace complex, and happened to pass through a corridor in front of them, and the two sides naturally met each other.
The noble lady was calm, without any emotion at all, and even nodded to the two of them with a glint in her eyes.
He paused imperceptibly on Byron for a moment, then turned away.
When she was gone, Byron asked the lady who led the way:
"Who is this lady of the Prince?"
The lady did not think about it, and replied respectfully:
"This is one of the 217 children of His Majesty the King in the previous generation, and the half-sister of His Royal Highness the Prince, Princess Peta Capac.
Her Royal Highness was married to a high-ranking general of the empire in her early years.
It's just that once the general was unfortunately killed in a crusade against the totem god, and Her Royal Highness Princess Peta has been widowed for several years and has no children.
After the death of His Majesty some time ago, many big names went their separate ways to find supporters among the princes.
Our Prince Atahualpa is the son of the main queen Koya, and he is also the most favored by His Majesty, although he is not very old, but his bloodline is the purest, and he has also received the support of many princes and princesses.
Princess Peta Capac is one of them.
Although it is said that he is only a third-order, he is the first member of the royal family to move his family to Hot Spring City, and he has the greatest support for His Highness. โ
Hearing that the female officer was not Atahualpa's wife, Byron not only did not breathe a sigh of relief for his "good brother", but narrowed his eyes slightly.
Because the name that the other party showed on the [Logbook] was not Peta Capac at all!
It's a very different name: Thelise Ashubel.
The information on the other party cannot be read completely, indicating that the other party's rank is definitely not just the third order.
Byron, however, made another discovery.
He had just finally found the familiar scent he had smelled from the captain of the guard earlier, and the princess, who had a negative distance intimacy with the captain of the guard, was the source.
That's the flavor of [Daredevil]!
It is normal for a widowed princess with an extraordinary identity to find an excellent family, and it is not incomprehensible to play some "parks", "abandoned houses", "groves" and other moods.
But it is absolutely not normal for a disguised [Night Demon] to take the initiative to find the captain of the guard who is extremely relied on by the prince's side!
Thinking of this, the logbook was also smeared with ink, and new handwriting appeared.
[Hidden: The dark cloud of the change of the throne of the Sun Empire, historical influence 30, solution density 13%]
Byron's eyes twinkled.
Immediately realized, a turmoil was already emerging.
The old gods on the east coast, the colonists from afar in the north, and some indigenous totem gods who are ready to move, the change of throne in the Sun Empire, which can be called a gathering of storms, has gradually become the eye of the storm in the game of all parties in the entire southern continent.
