4. Princess, Long Sword, Entrance Ceremony (7)

PS: Ladies and gentlemen, smash the votes! Please! Caspar looked at Roland with affection, do you have to let your friends take off their pants?

Roland is very smart, coupled with Li Lin's strict training. For the details that ordinary people will not notice, as well as the unknown things revealed behind the details, Roland is always able to keenly perceive, reason, and then solve them in an unexpected way.

So.

Is he aware of it now?

In addition to being used for the operation of air routes between countries and new colonies, and occasionally used to demonstrate to the princess who did not know the height of the sky, or to transport a multi-level marketing brigade of less than 1,000 people with a number starting with the letters QB to various places to sign contracts. What do you have a special task to do?

The Zeppelin is equipped with six steam turbine power system pods for the Flame Surgical Boiler as a source of flight power. The new power system is scheduled to be installed on the Defence Air Force's Intercontinental 6-engine fly-wing strategic bomber and the secretly built Air Fleet flagship as well as a new turbine – an electric drive system to provide auxiliary operational capabilities and also perform test tasks.

Although a "steam engine" with a full load of 31.5 tons of bombs had to take off from the Gabro or Capantaria bases in the far south, the plan of bombing the cities along the coast of Albião or Castile across a straight line of nearly 7,000 kilometers and then returning to the starting base frightened many technicians. However, the attitude of the General Armament Department and the relevant technical departments was quite serious. With the permission of Li Lin and the technical data support of Dr. Messerschmidt's unfinished strategic bomber project in Nazi Germany, several prototypes were prototyped, and the practical steam turbine was tested on the Zeppelin.

Compared to electric propulsion systems, the points of this steam turbine system are obvious:

It inherits the characteristics of steam engine with steam as working medium, and adopts the advantages of condenser to reduce the exhaust pressure, abandons the shortcomings of reciprocating motion and intermittent air intake, and greatly improves the work efficiency;

Constant power output at any altitude. Even in ultra-long-distance missions, the steam power can operate at 100% full load from start to finish;

Through the guò fire system, the maximum pressure of the boiler can be obtained in 5~10 seconds;

Poor sensitivity to temperature differences;

High reliability, long overhaul intervals and simple maintenance requirements;

Simple and agile control;

All of the above. With a staggering output of 17,000 hp from a single engine pod, the Zeppelin's massive hull can reach a top speed of 230 km/h. Encouraged by this, the General Armament Department quickly put this power into the flying wing bombers, and a large number of six-shot monsters walked off the production line and went into training.

Besides. Radio altimeters, radio communications, navigation, radar positioning systems, etc. are also new products in the test. For technical confidentiality. Also to prevent the church from coming to trouble, these equipment and operation rooms are hidden and closed to passengers.

Finally, the Zeppelin was also tasked with mapping, navigation, and reconnaissance.

In addition to these realized plans, the General Armament Department had a backup wartime Zeppelin conversion program to transform the cruise ship into a floating aircraft carrier. Or a large cruiser equipped with a launcher to launch a V1 cruise missile. It's just that these two programs are huge in terms of engineering and cost. In addition, Dr. Braun, who is in charge of the missile project, has not yet come up with any decent results, so he can only lock up dust in the safe for the time being.

It was no secret to Roland that V.E was engaged in a number of dual-use projects and secretly promoted its military strategic layout under the cover of civilian projects. He also has a good understanding of the technical ideas of Alfheim. After walking around, I'm afraid I've caught a lot of clues.

How much does he already know?

Thinking about this question, Caspar couldn't find any clues from his friend's smooth side face. Patiently, urgent gaze still wandered around Roland.

Faintly feeling a gaze scratching his back, Roland took a deep breath in confusion.

There is no need to turn back or make small gestures to lure the other party to expose, he knows what is going on.

Even if the three friends did not receive any orders, they would report their movements to Li Lin out of a sense of responsibility and vigilance, and Caspar, who was directly under the guard, had the obligation to do so. At the same time, they also knew that Roland was aware of this.

A subtle tacit state, but at the same time extremely paradoxical.

For this embarrassing situation that makes friendship hypocritical, Roland chose to accept it silently.

It's not whether you can forgive or not, or how grand your magnanimity is. In the final analysis, the Roland of mankind is not the same as them.

Human vs. non-human.

On the one hand, there are the founders and beneficiaries of the world order, and on the other hand, those who are dissatisfied and disgusted by it. Tensions on both sides are so deep-seated that even interracial friends like them have to prioritize racial stances.

plus those karma between him and Li Lin...... At the end of the military preparations of the defense forces, and at the point when a war with humanity will break out, the three friends will never relax their surveillance of Roland.

"No matter what, it can't be avoided, is it a war that is destined to ......"

The question that caused the dispute with Li Lin 4 years ago was whispered out, and the hand that grabbed the safety railing secretly exerted force, and green tendons appeared on the back of the hand.

It took 4 years to travel around to find a solution and transcend it. Just like Li Lin, who never makes mistakes, he is absolutely correct and stands tall in his domination. Repeating the hard thinking and trying to challenge again and again, the result is that the number of failures has become redundant.

Will the despair of failure continue, or will it be resolved in the future when it comes?

Roland didn't think about it once, and he was looking at the cityscape of Lüdders, which stretched out to the horizon as if it were shrouded in a rainbow, and a smile appeared on his handsome face.

That's—

Caspar, who was watching from the sidelines, felt a dark wave of congestion and emptiness in his chest, suppressed the gloom of déjà vu, and murmured silently in his heart.

Facing the sun, the fearless and innocent face is plated with a color that shines more than gold, as if it is itself a flash of light that attracts others.

And the smile that made him decide to leave Alfheim four years ago and travel all over the world to see the vastness and wonders, the beauty and the ugliness, and to explore the answers from the reality beyond books and paper is now even more distracting to Kaspar.

"It's rare for that guy to have such a determined look in his eyes. ”

At the moment when he was upset, the smell of the girl's sweat and emotion came from the side, and the tight right hand hung down, and Caspar looked at the girl who stretched her long hair beside her. (To be continued.) )
