One of the things that most surprised a time-traveler in the Lost World is that there is the term "gravity" here. In a world where mathematics does not exist at all and knowledge other than magic is quite poor, I suddenly heard a similar term appear in classical physics.
, someone will think that he or she is abnormal.
But the fact is that the gravity that Midi refers to is actually what the Earth calls 'gravity', but Midi's understanding of this concept is still quite superficial.
Just like the 'anti-gravity device' that Lin is going to make next. The floating stone created based on the three-ring apprentice-level magic - gravity change. In fact, in use, only the floating stone itself can resist the mid-planet.
of gravity.
Various reinforcement methods are used to firmly fix the floating stone on the airship hull to achieve the effect of freeing the airship from the constraints of gravity. The device created by this method is called an 'anti-gravity device'. But honestly
I mean, the name is just a bit scary.
To use a simple description, to lift a ball, a certain amount of force is required. But lifting the ball with the palm of your hand is different from lifting the ball with the tip of a needle. The contact points must be handled differently. Otherwise, even if you use the same
If the ball is pushed up with the tip of a needle, it is very likely that the ball will be punctured.
In actual terms, those airships whose complete buoyancy is provided by floating stones. If the quality of this so-called 'anti-gravity device' is not adequate, the floating stones will float in mid-air, but the rest will
The ship hull fell to the ground.
This is usually due to damage to the device that fixes the floating stone on the ship body. After the two are separated, the airship without support can only be in close contact with the ground. In order to strengthen the connection between the floating stone and the airship, various measures are taken to take into account the toughness.
Rigid magic materials were piled around the floating stone as if they were free of charge.
But if they can only do this kind of thing, then Lin, the time traveler who transformed the Tower of the Great Sage, will be in vain.
The reason why the water-marked copper is all over the inner wall of the cabin and the reason why the secret iron penetrates into the keel is to find a way to add the magic of gravity control to the entire hull. It would be very troublesome to use a needle to lift a ball. It would be very troublesome to use two.
It won't be so troublesome if you hold it in your hands.
However, water-patterned copper and secret iron can only be used to carve magic circles, and do not have the effect of floating stones. In this regard, Lin plans to use the results of a past research.
When I was making a magic gun, I found that too dense power channels, that is, the patterns of the magic array, would interfere with each other. An extended study of this phenomenon found that when the magic arrays are within a certain distance from each other,
When the conditions are met, it will resonate, and then amplify the effect of the magic to form a larger 'whole'. In fact, this is a kind of magic circle.
So based on this basis, can we develop a magic circle with the effect of floating stones? With this idea, Lin once completed a simulation experiment and passed various verifications. All that remains is to put it into practice and confirm its effect.
.
The floating stones that were originally supposed to be spherical were changed into thin stone slabs, which were evenly and symmetrically arranged on the entire hull of the airship, and then the floating stone slabs were connected with magic arrays to form a huge resonance magic.
The formation. The key point is the special magic stone mechanism removed from the peaceful arm of the Silverbeard Dwarves.
A major requirement for forming a resonance is for the magic power output of all nodes to achieve coordination. It is not completely consistent, but has different requirements according to the number and placement of the items, eventually becoming a huge magic item.
Coupled with the secret iron that has penetrated into the keel of the ship, the properties of this magical material are not only strong enough to reinforce the keel, but it also has the effect of assimilating to the surrounding magical effects. That is to say, the secret iron keel will be in the floating stone.
Under the influence of the resonance magic circle, it also achieves a certain degree of gravity change effect. It can be said to be the best keel repair material at the moment.
To adjust the power output of the resonance magic array, according to someone's previous method of transforming the magic tower, it depends on the number of lines of the array, that is, the amount of power input. Doing this is not only the calculation in the early stage, but also the modification of the later adjustment.
Those who work hard will even waste a lot of raw materials just to modify it.
However, using the special magic stone mechanism of the Peace Arms can avoid such problems. In order to provide power to each component of the Peace Arms and thereby generate power, the energy center of the Peace Arms is an important component used to control the power output.
It can supply multiple parts at the same time, and has different supply amounts for each part. Although the silver-bearded dwarves are not satisfactory in terms of control, the potential of the special magic stone mechanism is far beyond anyone's expectation. It can be
The whole set of peace weapons actually still has potential that can be tapped.
With the peacefully armed special magic stone mechanism as the core, and paired with Fen's control program, the large floating stone resonance magic array designed by Lin worked without any surprise. Even during the experiment, if Fen's control did not reduce the output,
This half-finished airship will probably float into the air with the support of a few red-level magic stones.
This also reflects another advantage of the improved floating stone resonance magic circle. It consumes less energy than making those stone slabs into a whole, that is, a whole ball. Regarding this result, someone
I was relieved in my heart.
For Lin, arranging the floating stone resonance magic circle is a last resort. Because the existing materials are not enough to build an anti-gravity device with a floating stone as the core. The reinforcement part is not done well, I am afraid that the floating stone will
The moment it is activated, the entire stone will break away from the airship and float directly into the air.
As for other means of flight, they basically either face a shortage of materials, or they only exist in theory. Someone has not even come up with the most basic design plan. For example, strap two V2 rockets to both sides of the fusiform hull.
, the kind that is enough to reach the moon in one breath.
When Tripwood's improved version of the floating stone resonance magic circle and the two engines used as propulsion mechanisms are completed, it can be said that the repair of the airship has been mostly completed. The consumption of existing materials is also expected, so Lin
We asked Jermaine and Totokani and his daughter to make a small engine with relatively high adaptability, using oils other than light oil to serve as a generator.
This is of course because the results of the two girls' busy work must be effectively utilized. Since oil and gas are not easy to collect, only a small amount is stored in special tanks and used for cooking. Light oil is gasoline, which mainly supplies the two engines of the propulsion mechanism.
The final residue of oil refining, asphalt, is smeared on the outside of the ship body, on the surface of the wooden boards and between the gaps, to provide windproof and waterproof effects.
Other types of oil, including kerosene, diesel, heavy oil, etc., are used by the small engine as a generator. However, electricity cannot be stored directly in the land, so it must go through a magic circle of conversion before it can be turned into power and stored.
Enter the special magic stone mechanism in the energy center of the airship.
However, the conversion efficiency of this method is very low, that is, most of the energy is turned into entropy and wasted. But someone does not have time to do optimization design slowly, so he just muddles along.
After the third engine for power generation is completed, the overall work has reached the final stage.
Except for fuel and oil gas, all the oil is poured into the power generation engine and burned. Under Jermaine's supervision, an endless stream of magical power is generated and stored in the special magic stone mechanism.
Looking at the restored power, the silver-bearded dwarf had an urge to stuff this thing back into the peaceful arm. Fortunately, he still had some sense and knew that this was the key to escape, so he didn't do this.
Stupid thing.
The Totokani father and daughter cooperated with Marit, and Riley, who completed the carpentry work, fixed the wings, stern rudder and two external propulsion engines in position. They also used a mechanical boom structure to retain the maximum possible
Controllability.
Because the two girls did not use any special distilling equipment and only used magic to do hard work, there is still a small part of the oil that has not been refined yet, and they are continuing to work hard. Besides, the magic power of the two of them is not enough to be used twice.
Fourteen hours without a break. This is achieved by using all the power recovered after waking up every day for refining.
Freya went to assist Fin's work very early. Therefore, the progress of the airship control program can be said to be beyond imagination, and it has entered the third stage of integration work.
Lin was once again checking the improved version of the floating magic circle. At the same time, on the water-patterned copper film on the inside of the ship's hull, two magic circles were engraved. One was to control the temperature of the prototype that had been completed before, and the other was to control the temperature.
It is pressurization in the cabin. In other words, this airship is flying to a high altitude, not the flying height of an ordinary airship.
Seeing that the airship's repair work was about to be completed, one thing came to everyone's attention, and that was naming.
The goblin seemed to want to declare his sovereignty and name this almost new airship. Lin directly grabbed his hairless head, put it close to his ear, and said threateningly: "You can try to say something
It’s a name that shouldn’t be said. Believe it or not, I will smash you into a pulp, mix it with blood, and paint that name on the outer wall of the airship."
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency, please come." After getting along with each other these days, Totokani has caught the temper of this magician and knows how to deal with him. Most of the time, he is easy to talk to, but when he hits the bottom, that is
It's life-threatening. So don't take the threat as a joke, the goblin's life will be in danger.
Patting the somewhat disappointed goblin on the shoulder, Lin said: "Don't be too disappointed, this airship will be handed over to you in the end."
"Oh, really!" Totokani's eyes lit up and he asked excitedly. Of course he knew what the many subversive technologies on this airship meant. He even had plans to, if he had the chance,
When he builds another airship of his own, he will definitely use the technology here. But how can building it by himself be better than the one in front of him? So he can't help but be inactive.
