Chapter 30 Causes of Internal Combustion Engine Failure
In the evening, the starry night celebration of many disasters finally began.
Fishmen, Star People, Beast Tides, Pirates, a variety of disasters took turns, and ended neatly, and the Flower Harbor ushered in unprecedented prosperity.
Goods from all over the world fill the market, and the specialties of the Star Folk from other worlds also gather the spotlight, and the magic items made of magic crystals have narrowed the distance between magic and ordinary people.
It's as if everything is on the safe side.
Walking in the festive market, Chen Zhou and Jerry are waiting for each other.
The time-delayed Holy Light Emissary was ready, the flying mount Vulture was parked at the hotel, and the Ice Elemental armor was already draped over his body.
The magic energy that rested after summoning creatures beforehand has been restored, and the power of myths has only been used once to detect the Happy Thief in Worridamara and once to connect with the summon's vision.
Chen Zhou was ready to fight to the death or run away with any enemy that might arise.
"It always feels like the Starry Night Celebration won't end easily."
Chen Zhou seconded the proposal, but he really didn't know what other enemies might suddenly appear.
There can't be a primitive life form falling from the sky, right?
"If you want to open up, maybe the enemy will come out of the ground?" The street slicker maple leaf that I met on the way to go shopping was greatly relieved.
"No, the enemy that may have emerged from the ground has been resolved!"
"Anyway, when the time comes, you Star People will rush forward."
Chen Zhou looked at the night sky with relief, a tiny ball of light emitting a dim light was hanging in the air, using the inconspicuous figure as a scout.
Jerry will use the extra vision provided by the Wild Arcane to monitor the entire Flower Harbor and watch out for any possible abnormalities.
If he can't even take the enemy with such a formation, then he can also consider running away.
It's still a while before Ms. Flowers takes the stage to speak, and he can still have a good time.
Suddenly, there was an explosion from above.
Brilliant firelight spreads freely, rendering the night sky in gorgeous colors.
It was one of the Star People's inventions, something called "fireworks".
"By the way, I've heard you talk about internal combustion engines or something, what is that?"
It occurred to him that someone in the Star Folk had muttered about the failure of the internal combustion engine.
Can this thing fail?
"Well, I don't really understand it."
The Tigerman's question touched on Maple Leaf's blind spot: "The internal combustion engine is something that is stuffed with fuel in a closed container and ignited, and then Duang explodes with one blow. ”
Chen Zhou realized that he might have asked the wrong person.
"I see, the explosion and heat diffuse the air, eject it out of the container's outlet, and then use that energy to accomplish something."
I feel that the IQ of Maple Leaf is not as good as that of hamsters......
Without blurting out this speculation, Chen Zhou continued to inquire: "Then why did it fail?" ”
"Because the explosion of this world doesn't necessarily provide thrust."
Maple Leaf scanned the forums urgently, and then copied it word for word.
First he gave an example:
The 3-ring spell Fireball is a well-known spell that causes a low-pitched explosion of flames that damage everything within range.
While it is intuitive that the spell's explosion will cause pressure, blowing everything in its area of effect away, its explosion will hardly cause any pressure.
"Of course not, the explosion of the fireball technique is caused by the diffusion of the excited fire element, why do you think it can blow things away, it is the effect of the air element."
This involves the difference in the underlying logic between the two worlds.
In the blue star where the people of the stars are located, the elemental theory is a primitive philosophical concept, and the world is made up of microscopic particles.
On Asta's side, the elements are the real thing, and it's the building blocks of this world.
It looks like an explosion, but the underlying principle is completely different.
Because of this, when the traversers ignited the gunpowder here, the gunpowder simply exploded, failing to push the piston like the earth.
Don't look at the muskets here, but the principle of their firing is actually alchemy technology.
Realizing this, they set their sights on two paramagics: "Steam Spell" (0) and "Explosion Spell" (1).
The former can convert fire-based spells into steam in water, which is the principle of the steam magic machine, and the latter can make fire-based spells add the shock of the gas element, which is similar to the explosion of the blue star.
After thinking about a way to climb science and technology for a long time, in the end, I had to honestly take the road of magic.
However, after calculation, it would take a huge amount of magical energy to reproduce the grand plan of the Blue Star here, and even the magic power of hundreds of spellcasters would not meet the requirements.
At this moment, the mutated magic beasts and magic crystals brought new possibilities......
"That's why you made this out of the Crystal."
Fiddling with the fire dragon fireworks in his hand, Chen Zhou's heart was full of emotion, it was quite difficult to live a modern life here.
"It's not just fireworks, it's bigger machines." Maple Leaf smiled mysteriously, but it was a sale.
They are teaming up with the alchemists of Blossom Harbor to build a steam airship with magic crystals and a magical version of the steam engine and the internal combustion engine as its core technology, a vehicle that was once active in World War I.
This type of transportation is low-tech, low-reproducible, large-carryable, and low-cost (relative) to manufacture, and can be built by handicraft even before the beginning of the industrial era.
Once the manufacturing is successful, it can complete the leap from the age of sails to the age of steam.
Theoretically, the Star Folk and the Alchemists have chewed it through, and the biggest issue plaguing them at the moment is safety - this world has far more air forces than the Blue Star of the same period.
Chen Zhou didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, but thought about whether the "steam spell" could bring benefits to his spell system.
Conclusion: No.
His main attributes are cold and radiant (although he hasn't learned any spells yet), and the fire elemental weakens his magic.
"But what if you think about it in terms of practicality rather than power?"
"Then I can shoot ice balls, ice picks in a row, and I can do quite pure and dense physical hits."
In addition, as a master spell master, he can also use ice to make various utensils and parts, and form all kinds of items in one piece.
For example, building a car?
Recalling the vultures that were chained to the hotel stables, Chen Zhou shook his head, there was no need to be obsessed with completely replicating life on Earth.
Almost.
Just as he began to think about how to make better use of his past knowledge, the demon pet in his pocket suddenly issued a prompt.
"I've seen the true face of the Baroness de Flowers, should it be nice or ugly?"
Jerry, who is a hamster, does not understand human appearance.
So Chen Zhou, who was filled with curiosity, also took over the senses of the Holy Light Divine Envoy and looked at the baron who had ascended to the podium in the center of the town from above......
It's been on the shelves for a whole week, and it's worth celebrating if you don't die violently, there's nothing to say, you can only add more.
Also, thanks to RudBo and Whiskie for the tips, but it didn't feel necessary, which made me very stressed...... I really couldn't have done more.
