"Everyone, please disperse. The treasures planted here have been picked. If you still want to snatch it from me, you can try it now."
As if to confirm his words, the huge Sky Demon Mecha landed in the sky and landed in the magma. The hot magma could not harm the mecha at all, and the mecha's chest happened to be right behind Lan Nuo.
As he took a step back, the liquid metal swept around him and integrated him into the huge machine in the blink of an eye.
Seeing this scene, everyone retreated one after another. The five Dou Emperors who came to besiege them have now been burned to charcoal. If they, the stronger ones with even worse levels, try to intervene forcibly, they may end up in the same fate.
Even more miserable.
As Lan Nuo integrated into the machine body, the flames in the mecha's palms also changed from white to green, and the temperature became even hotter, allowing people to truly feel that it was the legendary alien.
Fire, some well-informed alchemists have already exclaimed.
"It turned out to be the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire. Legend has it that a Green Lotus Earth Core Fire was born in the Tagore Desert decades ago. I didn't expect that just a few decades later, another one would be seen here!
"
Countless envious and jealous eyes were cast on the huge mecha, but they were helpless. They were absolutely no match for such an existence.
Lan Nuo led the company's troops and left in a swaggering mecha. Although the remaining people were unwilling to face the crater, the magma inside the crater had gradually cooled. It was obvious that the treasure inside had really been taken away.
, and could only leave helplessly.
After everyone left, Xiao Yan quietly came out of the crater, holding a green lotus platform in his hand. The birth of the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire must be accompanied by a Earth Core Lotus Platform. It takes a while to pick this treasure. Before,
After these people were scared away, Xiao Yan slowly picked this thing up. For people with fire attributes, this kind of thing is definitely a treasure. Sitting on it and practicing, the speed of practice can be greatly improved.
There is also an Earth Lotus Seed in this lotus flower, which is also a rare treasure. Taking it can greatly increase the speed of Dou Qi cultivation, and the effect is not much worse than that of some pills.
When Xiao Yan returned to the company headquarters with a full harvest, what he saw was a large number of scientific researchers in the company's general layout whispering around a green bonfire. They seemed to be discussing something. Next to the green fire
, there are one after another fires made of different materials, some are wood, some are coal, and even cotton wool. To the extreme, the fire of this world is directly used as the fuel of the fire, and these flames are completely different from ordinary flames.
All are blue flames.
Of course Xiao Yan could see what was going on. Although the strange fire was strange, it was also a flame, possessing many characteristics of flame. When he used this kind of flame, he did not observe it too carefully, but he also knew that it was being used by others.
The flames burned by objects ignited by strange fires are also strange fires. However, these strange fires are not the original fire. They cannot be absorbed and refined. They only have simple destructive power. And like ordinary flames, they will also be extinguished if the fuel is exhausted.
.
He had not thought about this phenomenon carefully before, because these flames that ignited other objects could not be used in battle. Others were not fools. If they were on fire, then throw away their clothes. If there was a fire in the forest, then
Running out of the forest, with the abilities of these practitioners, it is almost impossible to burn the opponent to death simply by setting fire without using fighting skills.
But at this time, these researchers were studying this flame with great interest. Xiao Yan saw someone taking out a torch and heating it on the bonfire for a moment. The torch suddenly burned. The top of the torch was cyan.
of flame.
The man held a torch and quickly arrived at the back seat of a convertible. Someone was driving in front of him, and he held the torch like a torch bearer.
The two of them drove dozens of kilometers before the torches went out and arrived at another bonfire in the distance. The bonfire had not yet been lit. A large amount of wood was piled here, waiting for the fire to be passed on, as if
It's like waiting for the torch bearer.
As the cyan flame came into contact with the firewood pile of the campfire, the high-temperature cyan flame spread almost instantly, completely igniting the entire woodpile.
Immediately, scientific researchers came forward with various equipment to test, testing the characteristic temperature of the flame, testing the density and flow direction of the surrounding heaven and earth energy, and equipment similar to infrared night vision devices, but what they observed was not infrared.
It is the flow and density of fighting spirit, and the intensity of fighting spirit can be displayed through different colors.
After a series of tests, everyone present could not help but cheer: "Successful, our guess was correct! Finally we have a powerful energy source that can be widely used!"
Many scientific researchers and engineers had tears in their eyes, because the discovery in front of them was too important to them. Xiao Yan was a little confused, so he waited until Lan Nuo, who was in charge of the experiment, was free for a while before he stepped forward and asked: "
What were they celebrating? What did you find? So excited."
Lan Nuo took off his goggles, pointed to the bonfire over there and explained: "They are so excited because they finally found a way to transform extraordinary power into them without relying on extraordinary people or extraordinary creatures.
Methods to provide motivation needed in daily life.
Although we have refined gas-conducting metal before, it can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to a certain extent and convert it into fighting energy for use. However, refining these things requires magic cores. Although Warcraft can be cultivated, it is limited by its reproductive ability and may require
We have gone through thousands or even tens of thousands of years of domestication and breed improvement before they can become like poultry and livestock, and can really be bred on a large scale. Even if they are bred on a large scale, it is actually very difficult to keep up with the production capacity.
to avoid the huge consumption of future industrialization.”
Xiao Yan nodded: "Even if you can improve the reproduction efficiency of these monsters, the period from birth to gaining fighting energy and condensing the magic core is almost impossible to compress. In other words, even if you can breed them on a large scale, breeding them
The cycle will not be too short. If the industrial level continues to develop as fast as it does now, then gas-conducting metal will inevitably become an extremely scarce resource."
"That's right, but we can't find a more suitable alternative resource in a short period of time. The huge energy in this world is accumulated in Dou Qi. Although there are also fossil fuels, various minerals, and even forestry resources.
There is no shortage, but the energy contained in these organic matter is really insignificant compared to the fighting spirit that fills the world. If you can't use the power of fighting spirit, it doesn't count as having developed a set of energy sources adapted to this world.
Technology system.
The alien fire has brought huge changes to our current situation. You have just seen our experiment. In addition to having great bonuses in refining medicine and attacking, the alien fire also has many and ordinary flames.
and similar characteristics."
There were two candles placed in front of Lan Nuo. He first took out a lighter and lit one of the candles. Then he saw a bright orange flame rising from the candle.
Then a green flame burned on his finger, and he lit another candle next to him. Suddenly, the candle burned with a green flame.
"In terms of igniting other objects, the Green Lotus Earth Core Fire is no different from other flames. And if you can carefully observe the burning speed of the two candles, you will find that even if the temperature of the green flame is much higher, the candle can burn
The speed is only a little faster. That's because candles are more likely to melt under high temperatures, and part of the melted liquid flows outside and is wasted. According to our testing, during the burning process of the candle, the gas produced and the energy consumed are
The speed of oxygen is the same, and the color of the flame that ignites them will not differ."
Xiao Yan was thoughtful and seemed to understand something: "You mean the extra temperature of the flame is obtained by absorbing the energy between heaven and earth and absorbing the fighting spirit."
"Yes, this is the most significant difference between him and ordinary flames. He will actively absorb Dou Qi, or the energy between heaven and earth, so that his burning temperature is far higher than that of ordinary flames, and is released in the combustion reaction
The energy released is also much higher. According to our tests, the energy released by coal of the same quality when ignited with ordinary flames is only one hundred and twentieth of that released by igniting Qinglian Earth Core Fire.
, that is to say, during the burning process, Dou Qi actually provides most of the energy. It can be said that this kind of flame utilizes Dou Qi very efficiently, and the combustibles only serve as an inducer.
This is why, with sufficient Dou Qi, even some objects that are originally non-combustible can be ignited by strange fire."
When Xiao Yan held so many kinds of strange fires, he really didn't study their various physical properties carefully. Now after hearing the research results, a curious expression suddenly appeared on his face.
"Now that you have discovered this characteristic, what are you going to do next?" Xiao Yan seemed to have already guessed what might happen next.
"Don't worry, the characteristics we discovered are more than these. What I just said is that when it burns, it is similar to an ordinary flame. The consumption rate of combustibles will not increase significantly. At most, it will be like burning coal.
When the temperature is too high, it will directly heat the coal to the steam form, causing violent deflagration. However, as long as you control the size of the flame and the direction of the temperature like a candle, you can make this kind of combustion slow and stable.
Come down.
But another characteristic is more important, and that is the invariance theorem of different fires.
That is to say, the characteristics of every strange fire that is ignited are the same, and are not affected by many factors such as time, location, concentration of combustible spiritual power, etc.
Cyan flames can ignite combustibles, and the combustibles ignited by these cyan flames also burn cyan flames, taking them to extremely remote places and using them to ignite other combustibles, which are also cyan flames.
The extremely distant cyan flame is exactly the same as the cyan flame ignited by the original fire. There is no difference. It can also ignite other combustibles, and its temperature will not drop due to this ignition. This means that it can ignite other combustibles.
Reproducibility, which means that industrial production can get rid of its dependence on me.
There is no need for me to carry fire everywhere to ignite flames. The flame in each of their hands is fire, but it is different from the original fire refined by me. It cannot be contained in their bodies, and it cannot be controlled by their fighting spirit.
control.
If you want to control these fires, you must use flame control methods. For example, they can make a flamethrower. As long as the nozzle of the flamethrower itself can withstand the high temperature, then the Qinglian Earth Core Fire they spew out will be the same as the one I used by consuming fighting energy.
In fact, there is no difference. The only difference is that I can rely on my thoughts to control the flames, while they must rely on natural rules or extraordinary rules."
Xiao Yan finally understood why Lan Nuo and the engineers were so excited. Although it was quite inconvenient to operate flames without the original fire, this was the first time humans discovered fire in nature and carefully preserved it.
The lit bonfire is also difficult to control. There is no way to control it at will. It can only be controlled according to the characteristics of the flame and the rules of nature. But even so, the flame still brings splendid civilization to mankind.
And now, Lan Nuo is like the Prometheus of this world, bringing a new kind of fire to mankind in addition to ordinary flames, and this cyan fire will undoubtedly open up an extremely brilliant future.
"In the future, Douqi Continent is likely to usher in an extremely prosperous steam era. Our factories are already trying to smelt cheap and high-temperature-resistant materials to make boilers for steam engines. The temperature of the cyan flame is extremely high, even if the steam engine's
The conversion rate may not be particularly high, but with great force, the energy it releases is more than a hundred times that of an ordinary flame. Even a relatively simple steam engine's energy utilization rate is only about one-third that of an internal combustion engine.
After conversion, the energy that can be released is much higher."
The expression on Xiao Yan's face was a little unnatural. It was hard for him to imagine what it would be like to transform the Dou Qi Continent into a steampunk world.
But the existence of strange fire may indeed lead to such changes. Once this cheap, efficient and popular energy is accepted by the public and its potential is industrialized, it is really likely to be accepted by the entire continent in the future and become the general public.
