The enthronement ceremony is over here, and then the feast begins.
At noon, Chris brought the nobles to the open space in front of the castle. More than sixty round tables had been set up here, and two young servants stood in front of each table to serve them.
Mrs. Allen and the cooks in the city prepared exquisite meals, mainly steaks. Although most of the local nobles had learned to use chopsticks, Chris had to take care of the city lord who came from out of town. After all, he was a guest.
Chris sat down in front of the head seat at the middle dining table. At the same table with him were the major marquises, including the newly promoted Yunado.
The nobles sat down one after another, and they were surprised to find that the dark red meat plate in the middle of the table was actually labeled "dragon meat", and each person could get just one piece.
For the barons at the bottom or a small number of viscounts, they would never be able to afford such precious food in their lifetime, but they were in luck today.
The reputation from Howard is 10, the reputation from Anthony is 15...
There are also benefits for the residents of Shuguang City. They can enjoy paid leave today and each person can receive three kilograms of meat.
Although Chris' explanation was to celebrate with the people, his actual goal was to gain reputation. This wave allowed him to gain more than 100,000 reputation points.
When all the dishes were brought to the table, Chris led the nobles to eat, and a joyful open-air banquet officially began.
"Your Majesty, what are those big guys flying in the sky? They can actually carry people." During the dinner, Bibron asked curiously, and the eyes of other marquis were also attracted.
Chris answered: "That is my newly invented secret weapon, called a hot air balloon. It will be used in the Pioneering War in the future to chase enemies or attack cities. I will teach you how to use it later. Before I leave,
From time to time, you should bring one back from each city and practice it diligently, and strive to master it as soon as possible."
Glennie asked: "Did His Majesty impose a floating magic circle on it?"
"No." Chris shook his head and said, "This is made of common materials, such as cowskin, sheepskin, wicker, etc. Ordinary people can also make it."
Marquis Potala praised: "Your Majesty is so smart and can always come up with such things that amaze us."
"How does such a big thing fly?" Glennie continued to ask.
Chris explained: "I don't know if you have noticed a phenomenon. When you take a shower, the hot air floats upward. This is because the hot air is lighter than the cold air, so I suddenly thought of collecting the hot air.
Isn't it possible to take people to the sky? Then I did an experiment, and I didn't expect it to be successful. This is the origin of hot air balloons."
"Your Majesty is really amazing. You can develop such a magical weapon using very common phenomena in life." Potala couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "But I don't understand how it attacks the enemy?"
"What would happen if I carried a space ring filled with clay pot bombs, took off with the hot air balloon, flew over the enemy's head, and kept lighting it on fire and throwing it down?" Chris laughed.
asked.
This means that one knight can blow up an army of thousands of people and send them flying, and there is nothing they can do to him.
The marquises reacted immediately, filled with horror.
A hot air balloon paired with a clay pot bomb is definitely a super invincible weapon.
Chris said: "Hot air balloons have begun mass production. In the future, each border city will be equipped with more than thirty. Of course, there are not so many space rings to use, so you need to bring your own fuel and clay bombs. The endurance time is about thirty
Minutes, and then you need to come back for supplies.”
"In addition, if you encounter a magician who can use levitation, there is a risk of being shot down. So it is best to let a high-level knight drive it, so that if it falls, you will not be killed."
Chris told about the shortcomings of hot air balloons. Even so, the marquis were still very optimistic about this thing.
Potala said: "With these weapons provided by your Majesty, we will definitely be able to repel all the enemies who invaded during the War of Development and counterattack. By then, the Blazing Dragon Kingdom will become the most powerful country in the northern part of the continent.
."
"Cheers to the Blazing Dragon Kingdom!"
"cheers!"
Hearing the commotion, the other nobles at the table also raised their glasses and drank down the wine in one gulp.
······
The open-air banquet lasted until about three o'clock in the afternoon. The nobles left one after another, leaving the servants to clean up the mess.
Chris found a hot air balloon and personally taught the marquis how to use it.
He put coal into the brazier and quickly ignited it, and the air bag was slowly blown up.
"Let's go up." Chris greeted Potala and the others.
The space of the rattan basket is quite large, and it will not be a problem to accommodate fifteen or six people.
Potala and others jumped in excitedly, and the hot air balloon slowly lifted them into the sky.
The scenery below gradually shrank, and they climbed to a height of more than 500 meters.
Seventh-level knights can use fighting spirit to stay in the air for a short period of time, so they will not be scared to shout because of fear of heights.
"Pull this rope down to open a small hole at the top to allow the hot air balloon to descend. Pull this rope forward, this rope turns to the right..." Chris explained in detail, "In addition, if you want to carry a clay pot bomb,
Fire prevention measures must be taken. If a spark falls and ignites the fuse, it will be the end."
"Yes." The marquises listened attentively like students studying.
"Potala, come and try it." After Chris taught it once, he asked the marquis to start practicing.
It only took Potala about ten minutes to be able to use it flexibly, including the steering, ascent and descent of the hot air balloon. It can be said that he learned very quickly.
The old guy Kantanna seemed much stupider. The hot air balloon he controlled flew around and made the rattan basket sway unsteadily.
In the end, Chris couldn't stand it anymore and quickly changed people. He was worried that if Kantana continued to play, he would overturn the hot air balloon.
After all the marquises tried it out, Chris took them to an open area in the city.
He took out a clay pot bomb and said: "After many experiments, I found that the best height to throw the bomb down is five hundred meters. If it is too low, the pot will be smashed before it detonates. If it flies too high,
, it will explode in mid-air and cannot cause damage to the enemy."
After saying that, Chris lit the fuse and threw it down. The bomb exploded just before it hit the ground, scattering countless iron flakes.
Then he threw it again at high altitude and low altitude, so that the marquis could more intuitively see what impact the wrong height would have.
After flying around in the sky, Chris controlled the hot air balloon to return to the ground.
