Seeing the teacher and the other three archmages leaving in a hurry, Poluyu said in his dream, "Is this considered settled? Isn't it too fast?"
A male mage with a serious face came over: "Yes. Didn't the Archmage just say that this island is meaningless to us, it is just a desert island. If you are willing to develop it, then develop it. There are no lords here,
You have reclaimed wasteland, and this land belongs to you."
Zhu Yiwei echoed on the side: "Yes, I don't even know why you have to come here."
Polu said with a smile: "This island is nothing to you, but it is very important to us. It is better to explain some things clearly."
"Okay, is it okay now?"
The visitor waved his hand, without any intention of introducing himself, and turned to Zhu Yiwei, who was obviously very familiar with her: "How are you doing on Ta Island?"
"It's pretty good. Although the living environment is relatively harsh, it's more interesting than making shield components every day. We just made something interesting. You can come and take a look next time."
"Well, let's take a look when we have a chance. How is the progress of the crystal experiment?"
"It's not very good. There has been a lot of delay recently. Master Landau's laboratory has not been rebuilt until now. How is the recent situation on the island?"
"It's okay, this... this kid's teacher repaired the shield generator, at least the number of times the shield was breached dropped. You only missed it once after you left, that is, the task of manufacturing the generator components became more arduous.
.The supply pressure of crystals has increased again..."
At this point, the man seemed to remember something. He turned to face Polu: "You have to hurry up about the cargo ship over there. It has been delayed for a long time. Now daily consumption and crystal transportation have begun to compete for transportation capacity. This can't be done.
No more delay."
Polu made a decisive promise: "It is already being manufactured and will be put into operation soon. The ship being built this time is relatively large, so it is a little slow."
The man nodded and started talking to Zhu Yiwei again.
This is not a lie. The shipyard has indeed started manufacturing cargo ships. With the completion of the shipyard workshop project, the workers finally have a sheltered place and can start assembling the shipped cast iron parts into keel segments.
What has been started is a multi-purpose general cargo ship that is about the same length as a small gunboat, but the ship is wider and has a deeper draft. The small gunboat uses a full-frame keel. After all, the hull width is not large, and in order to hang armor boxes
It also emphasizes the strength of the framework.
And the most critical point is that this is a cargo ship, which poses new challenges to the hull structure. There are still some differences between full-frame keels and open ships.
Originally, according to Polu's idea, he wanted to directly build a bulk carrier. The middle section of the hull of a bulk carrier is as hollow as a hollowed out canoe. As long as the ribs are strong enough, it will be very convenient to build. The most important thing is
Yes, there is something wrong that needs to be corrected and repaired. After all, the whole belly is exposed.
According to what I learned, the grain and crystals that are shipped from the dock are basically still being loaded and unloaded manually. A simple hollow bulk carrier is really not suitable - bulk shipping can transport crystal ore, but packaged grain
You can't just mix it with crystals and throw them into the warehouse, right?
The solution is also very easy, and can even further reduce the manufacturing difficulty, which is to add dividing transverse bulkheads. But in this way, the ship becomes a double-decker multi-purpose general cargo ship.
After all, the loading of cargo ships requires careful attention to the center of gravity. If this thing is not loaded carefully, it may be tilted, or in serious cases, it may even roll in the water on the spot. Stacking cargo directly on the deck will also raise the center of gravity, which is harmful to the small boat.
It is said to be absolutely impossible. It is best if all the weight of the cargo is below the waterline - this is very beneficial to the stability of the ship.
And looking at the sea conditions outside, this is no longer a calm inland river. If the wind and waves bump up and the cargo rolls around, it will be fatal.
Therefore, the keel must be strengthened and denser ribs must be used, which puts new requirements on the hull structure. He thought for a long time and only the box-type keel could cope with the current situation.
After all, it is a ship close to 50 meters. If the hull is not strong enough, whether it breaks longitudinally under the wind and waves or the ribs collapse to both sides under the squeeze of the cargo, it will be a disaster.
These ribs cast by Goola were transported by tractors to the shipyard workshop, where the keels were assembled into small sections, and then transported to the shipyard and spliced together. From the hull to the power, although it is not very skillful, at least it is done
At that time, everyone felt more confident.
Thinking of this, Polu was about to explain to him what kind of boat he had made to calm their discomfort at being dragged away, when he saw Landau walking back with a relaxed face. He chatted with the mage for a few times.
After the sentence, he directly proposed to leave:
"Okay, now that we've finished talking, let's go back."
Bolu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly followed the teacher and stepped into the portal with Zhu Yiwei, and returned to Tower Island - his first trip to Star Island, which lasted no more than 30 minutes and ended up taking less than 20 steps.
He was teleported back, and it ended without even leaving the door.
As soon as he went out, Polu asked curiously: "Teacher, what did they ask you to do?"
"Oh, their pressure has become lighter recently, and they finally have time to sort out the old warehouse. There are a lot of damaged golems and equipment, and they asked us if we can repair them."
"Golems? Just like your rescue treasure, teacher? Are these golems made by the mages themselves?"
Bolu asked while turning his head to look at Zhu Yiwei, only to find that she also had an uninformed look on her face.
"It's similar to ours, maybe even more luxurious. Some of the golems made by early mages used quite luxurious materials."
"How did such a luxurious golem wear out?"
"No matter how strong the golem is, it has an upper limit. If it encounters someone more ruthless than it, it will always be beaten to pieces. Is it any wonder?"
"Then I don't quite understand. They can make their own golems, why can't they repair them?"
This made Polu feel very puzzled.
After hearing this question, Landau sighed and answered carefully:
"The process of making golems by mages is different from ours. After all, making things is not the specialty of mages. In order to avoid the golems they spent a lot of effort and a lot of precious materials to create and can only serve tea and water due to various defects, they made the golems.
Fighting Golems was organized into a standard ritual."
"Basically, the golems generated according to rituals and fixed-weight materials will remain at a similar level. Over time, most mages only remember this process, but not why they do it. This is not a trivial matter, after all, demon creation
It doesn’t seem to be the specialty of mages. The things they create can be used to fight, as long as they are useful enough.”
"But the consequence of this is that we don't understand what went wrong with the damage to the golem. Now that it's broken, we can't repair it at all. We have to throw it in the warehouse, which takes up a lot of materials. There's not enough manpower to dump it.
Push the mechanism or re-decompose it - low-level mages can't even cut and decompose the golem. So we professionals are needed to help repair it."
It can be seen that Landau felt a little proud that the archmages asked him for help. But Polu seemed to feel that there was something hidden behind it!
This routine looks familiar!
"Teacher, have you seen their warehouse?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"I have a bad feeling. They used it all at once and accumulated a terrible amount."
Polu felt his scalp numb just thinking about it.
"There must be a lot. Too many materials have been taken up, so that when the shield is breached, we can't send enough battle golems to block the opening. We have to go in ourselves, and then they come to us to solve the problem. Otherwise, how could the mages easily do it?
Asking outsiders for help?" "Did they say they would pay you?"
"No, but a favor given to such a big island must always be repaid. I think, maybe it will fall into this matter. You hurry up and build the island, and when it gets on the right track, we will
