Things like airships are the most spectacular miracles in the eyes of agricultural civilization people who have just entered the industrial age.
Its nearly 100 meters long, metallic shell looks like a huge statue totem flying in the air. Oh, yes, Mr. Wei likes to paint shark heads on the front of the airship.
In this world, airships are easy to make. Thermal runes and wind magic runes can quickly change the temperature of the gas in the airbag, thereby controlling the expansion and contraction of the volume in the airship. Hydrogen airbags account for 7%
10 proportions, but it is divided into multiple internal air bags that are separated from each other. The outer cabin is a mixture of water vapor and nitrogen. This is the technology of airships in the goblin period, and is of course larger than the goblin technology.
As for the outer shell, it is also famous for its rough skin and thick flesh, and is covered with a layer of steel mesh and special isinglass. In the Middle Ages, those aerial units such as gargoyles would have to lose an average of seven or eight teeth if they wanted to bite a ship.
to cause damage.

Carrette sat on the airship, holding the large disc rudder with one hand and looking at various air pressure instruments.
On the ground, it was the knights who were driving for Lord Wei Keng, but in the air it was the other way around. In the passenger cabin behind Carret, the group of young knights couldn't bear the loneliness and started to make a fuss.
Carret could only turn on the communicator and remind them: "It's okay to quarrel. Please remove all the guns and bullets from your body to prevent them from misfiring."
After a scolding, the boys were finally silenced.
This group of young knights who grew up in the Ruite Territory are wearing very light titanium and aluminum armor. They are similar to the configuration of the infantry in the asteroid landing battle in the Aerial Twist Plane. They wear helmets, but there is no face shield, only a glass cover.
Block. They have swords on them, but more often than not, they have a twenty-shot rapid-fire pistol on their waist.
Oh, my enemy, knights ride horses in other places, but as for them, the headquarters has prepared twenty-five steam motorcycles for them. Medieval version of the will-o'-the-wisp boy.
Letting these boys act as his bodyguards, Carrette often didn't want to go out, or in other words, he tried to avoid these boys when he went out.
~
The airship quickly arrived over Xiange Town.
After arriving at the airport in the northwest corner,
The cooling magic was activated, and the wrinkles of the airship began to evenly dent inward. The plump airship descended quickly and smoothly like a star fruit.
When the shadow of the airship passed across the buildings in the city, Karit also released his exclusive music at the right time: "Jin Jia La~ Give it to him~"
With a clang, the door of the cabin where the airship's ejected landing gear was in contact with the ground also opened, and Carrette slid down the slide. Flying Wings and the like, due to the current need to adjust the body's perception, there are not so many opportunistic tricks for the time being.
~
He rushed back to Xiange Town to meet the special envoy sent by the royal capital.
In the town of Xiange, in the house where Wei Keng stayed, Luo Shan was sitting by the bed, looking at the airship braking at an angle at the airport in the distance.
The north is a happy place. There are always many novel items popping up. Of course, these novel items are accessible to ordinary people. Unlike the new things emerging in the commercial cities of the south, there can only be reached by spending enough money.
The more gold coins you have, the more wonderful things you can see.
~
Four minutes later, Carrette shook off the group of riders looking for motorcycles and flashed directly to the place that was originally a manor and is now a guest house for the nobles.
Of course, as soon as they arrived at the scene, they met the knights from the royal capital. The knights were a little wary, and after confirming that it was Karet in front of them, they immediately saluted.
Wei Keng soon met the cousin. Well, it should be his cousin. She was two years older than him.
When she came to the table and faced this upright princess of the royal family, Carrette was worthy of her words.
Without looking at her much, Wei Keng took out a record book and asked in a business-like manner, what did Wangdu want this time. Potions, rune weapons, or machinery, all of which can be given, provided that Wangdu wanted something.
can fulfill corresponding commitments.
Wei Keng took out the list and handed it to the cousin. There were multiple-choice questions on it.
~
These procedures have already been given to the princess when they met. Now it is just a matter of determining which aspects of the specific plan the king can implement.
~
Roxanne covered half of her face with a fan and looked at Carrette. Is the smile on her face sarcastic? Or is it other expressions on her cheeks that are hard to judge.
He asked slowly: "Brother Carret, aren't you interested in the throne?"
Carrette blinked and looked at her intelligently: "This is not a bargaining chip that you can use to make a deal." The meaning is simple: I never said that I would give up my inheritance rights, but I don't want to talk to you about this kind of thing now.
Roshan said in a seductive tone: "The kingdom can grant you a new territory."
Carret looked at His Highness and immediately checked the system. The system marked that the princess had many "friends who were also from great nobles." This was a very important circle of ladies in the royal capital.
Luo Shan: "Xixue collar lost its male heir when fighting the tide ten years ago."
~
The system took out a map to introduce: Xixue Territory, a commercial port north of the royal capital, belongs to the coastal zone. But it is different from ordinary coastal areas. This territory is located on a protruding peninsula, and there is a radius outside the peninsula.
One hundred and forty kilometers of circular island circle.
This kind of terrain is obvious and has the characteristics of a crater! The raised ring on the outer sea isolates the entire territory into two parts: an inner shallow sea and an outer deep sea.
Ten years ago, during the Battle of the Tides, a large number of sea tribes invaded here along the ocean currents and fought a three-year war with the Kingdom of Egg. The maritime power of the Kingdom of Egg fought this group of tribes eight times.
A large battle involving five thousand people. Unfortunately, of course, the eldest son of the great nobleman of the local Xixue Kingdom died in the battle, and then the second son seemed to be cursed by the siren and threw himself into the sea.
Now there is only one daughter left. She inherited the title this year and needs to recruit someone to complete the inheritance.
~
"Stop!" Carrette shouted to stop Roxanne's introduction.
In Master Wei's eyes, the red thread on her white silk gloves that covered her forearms was a very complicated thing.
Carrette said seriously: "Cousin, it is your business to arrange a good lord for the Snow Territory, and it has nothing to do with me. I have no time for behind-the-scenes politics, and I am not good at it.
My people, their growing material and spiritual needs, and my own arcane lessons have taken enough of my energy. I'm sorry."
Carrette paused and decided to quickly end this time-wasting meeting.
He took out a pen and wrote on the signature sheet, increasing the original potion share to 11,000 pieces.
Karet: "We are still blood relatives, so we can't let you go all the way in vain. This is the bottom line that I can supply to the royal capital this year while the original conditions remain unchanged."
It means: "This is the price of your face. It's interesting enough, but of course that's all."
~
Rosanne paused, took the order and said, "Thank you, my cousin, but..."
The girl walked up to Wei Keng and released a soundproof barrier: "Legal, you are just my uncle's illegitimate son. This is what many people in the royal capital insist on."
On the system side, humanities expert Yan Beixiang translated simultaneously for Wei Keng: "She is reminding you that in the order of succession in the royal capital, you can be moved backward by the aristocratic council of the royal capital. After all, the king may also have several illegitimate children.
[Qin Xiaohan discovered that Wei Keng is a first-class person when it comes to grand strategy, but when it comes to conspiracies, sometimes he can’t understand what others are saying. And Bai Linglu is a riddle man, so he directly arranged for his subordinates to help him.
Keng translated the yin and yang dialect of some nobles.】
Carrette stared at the soundproof barrier set up by Roxanne, and of course saw the flashing gem on the finger of her white glove. It was a recorder. This recorder was prepared to unilaterally record the words of Carrette's side.
Behavior that falls under 'cutting the dog'.
Carrette stepped forward, raised his hand, and pressed the soundproof barrier, breaking it with a "click". Of course, he also knocked the eldest cousin against the wall.
The female knight on the side couldn't help but step forward, her hand already on the hilt of the rapier at her waist. As long as Wei Keng got closer, she would draw out the sharp blade.
Carret: "Actually, His Highness made a mistake about one thing. The inheritance right is not a necessary asset for me. But now in the territory, the groups with interests related to me regard it as very important!
I can't throw it away easily.
If His Majesty can come up with enough exchange items to exchange for this asset, and also silence the various interest groups in my territory, and make them acquiesce, Carret can give up his inheritance rights. Then this will be a very good thing for me.
transaction."
~
Wei Keng had already encountered the matter of wearing a yellow robe in the Shenzhou plane.
If they were to make the decision on the side of King Aige, Wei Keng thought it would be better for them to take out their chips as early as possible and not wait to unify their interests here.
Otherwise, once the Junker Group formed by the northern industrial economy forms an alliance, the king will not care about Karit being born from a maid, being an illegitimate child, or having impure blood!
When the interested parties in the Northern Territory are determined to fight for an orthodoxy for Karet, if the royal capital continues to deny it, it means that there are treacherous words to deceive the public.
The aristocratic elites of the North are bound to Carret's military and economy, and have drifted away in the face of the noise of Aige's bloated and old bureaucracy.
The European War in the main world proved that the imbalance of productivity between various regions after the industrial revolution and the rise of industrial forces made blood marriage and feudal hierarchical order unable to prevent the conflict between the old and new forces. Not to mention the capital of Egg and Caret
The blood connection between them is not strong to begin with.
~
Karite took three steps back, away from the princess,
Then the original space jump disappeared.
Leticia stepped forward and stood beside the princess. Regarding Caret's performance just now, the great knight did not comment much, but quietly waited for the princess's order.
~
From the perspective of a bystander: In all senses, Karit was not rude to the princess just now, but some of his actions were too exaggerated. And the two people's identities are equal. It is a small joke, and there is no need for the subject to say anything.
.
Please note that "equality" is recognized even by the knights from the royal capital.
In the view of this great knight: There is no doubt about Carret's arcane talent and commander's charisma, and excellence is orthodoxy.
The so-called "legally illegitimate child" in the royal capital is just that some nobles in the kingdom did not take advantage of the distribution of "refined grain" medicine, and deliberately stirred up trouble, hoping to remind the north that all the interests were shared.
But from the perspective of the knights of the royal capital, the southern nobles' plan to kick Carret out of the first line of inheritance is pure nonsense. It can only be tested at the negotiation table and cannot be implemented in practice.
~
Roxanne thought for a while and said to Leticia: "Lei, what do you think of this meeting?"
Lei: "Your Highness, you have successfully persuaded His Highness Carret. I think the rest is not that important."
Luo Shan shook her head: "Ms. Strategy once said: If you fail to get the other party to put forward conditions, it means that you did not take the initiative during the negotiation."
At this time, there was a buzzing sound outside the window. There was also the sound of a horn honking.
Carret's group of knights came on motorcycles.
This motorcycle is a heavy-duty motorcycle with a length of two meters and a width of half a meter. Almost half of the eight vehicles have two people sitting on them. After these silly knights got off the car, they hurriedly drove the Northland farmers.
It is common to ask with an accent and a rough voice: "Where is our lord?" Although they are nobles, rough voices are popular in the army, and these little knights have learned bad things.
Wei Keng, who was just about to go downstairs and leave, looked at this scene and slapped himself on the forehead helplessly.
Carrette: "It's just like Young and Dangerous. No, these sluts can't stay with me anymore. They have to be sent to the military headquarters, and a mechanical army has to be established to accommodate them."
Finally, Carrette turned to look in the direction of her cousin and whispered: "Marriage? Well, this method is not bad."
~
The noisy two months have passed,
The economic construction and production in the territory continued, and in the newly built industrial territory, technology began to change. A blast furnace of one hundred cubic meters was being manufactured, and a chemical reactor with a diameter of twenty meters was also completed.
Behind such a large production system is a very high-end manufacturing technology: how to control tunneling energy!
In the arcane era, there has never been a precedent for ordinary people to control large-scale arcane facilities. The powerful information emitted by large-scale arcane facilities at the quantum level is powerful radiation for ordinary people. Generally, it is forced by arcane mages.
Relying on his own mental stability, he can withstand the radiation of arcane facilities. Spellcasters who deal with such dangerous arcane facilities all year round are often monsters in the eyes of ordinary people.
~
The biggest feature of this industrial facility designed by Wei Keng is that it is safe enough.
In order to ensure lasting safety, Wei Keng spent a lot of effort on safety training for workers.
It is worth mentioning that the values of various pressure-resistant equipment in the industry fluctuate dynamically. This value will have certain uncertainties depending on the mental state of the technicians in the factory. You must know that in this world, lava can give birth to the element of fire and river water.
Water elements can be born, and wind elements can be born in high-altitude strong winds.
As for what will happen in a high-energy environment like a smelting factory? This makes Wei Keng, who sets safety indicators, very "fuck".
However, based on strict and precise visualization operations on each rune and targeted meditation operations, 95% of the workload of such a large production system can finally be handed over to the hands of various departments for operation.
Of course, it still needs to be tested~ The energy will not only tunnel, but will also be reflected in the etheric realm. Therefore, if a saboteur has the energy to attack this reflection in the etheric realm, then the entire industrial furnace will also suffer from instability!
[The system’s unreliable plan: play with the power of faith. As long as thousands of people’s faith gathers on important equipment in the factory and prays that the energy operates in a regular manner, then there will be protection in the etheric realm.
Wei Keng thought it was ridiculous: Wouldn't it be better to burn some gears with sun symbols and a crankshaft like a battle ax on the equipment to enshrine the machine soul?]
Wei Keng will not engage in metaphysical things! This is too embarrassing for the people of the earth. As an old group of time travelers currently serving in the main world, we must adhere to science and cognition. Even if cognition will cause difficulties in solving problems, we cannot
Avoidance of cognition.
Wei Keng finally decided to use the arcane method of protection and strengthen the awareness of protection to solve the problem of production safety.
Theoretically: as long as production regulations are followed enough times, mental containment will be formed.
In this way, layers of protection are set up in the etheric realm, and a large number of early warning spells, escape passages, and shelters (the realm of gaps, protection systems, and four rings) are left on the operating platform of the main material realm to ensure that
Production safety.
~
Carret handed over production to ordinary low-level arcanists to control, as if it had handed over productivity.
Now the security link still relies on high-level arcane mages like myself. But in the next five years, it can be handed over to the arcane rune engineers trained by the Rune Academy.
In the spring of 1978, when everything was going well, Wei Keng's multiple sets of eight-ring spells were completed.
At this point, the meaning and difficulty of mastering the variety of high-level spells are different from those of low-level spells.
Because after you gradually come into contact with the highest energy level allowed by the etheric realm of this planet, you have to start thinking about the essence.
Traditional high-level spells are the application mode of high-level energy gap, but what Wei Keng needs is a breakthrough in the entire technical system.
