Chapter 2124

"Slow down, slow down, I can't hear you clearly!" I asked the old man anxiously.

Although I just wanted to give up the wheelchair, I didn't think it was too soon. Although this is just a small wheelchair, but the value is quite terrible. You know, this thing can fly, and it's not a normal flight. What's more, it has no sound at all.

Although the gravity resistance device we bought from the iron Crusaders in Ashford can also resist gravity and achieve in-situ suspension, it not only makes a lot of noise, but also can't move once it flies. Otherwise, it can only be used for levitation if it doesn't rely on tracked transmission mechanism to bypass this defect in disguise It's the elevator. But the old man's thing obviously doesn't have those problems. When the old man came in, it was clear that the wheelchair could be suspended and moved, and there was no problem in steering. I just didn't know whether this thing consumed a lot of energy, and whether it could be magnified. And the most important thing was, how high can this thing fly?

"I'm sorry, I was so excited just now. What kind of power does this thing depend on?"

"Oh, you said that." The other side didn't take a serious look, indicating that an assistant who came along with him helped him lift a cover behind the wheelchair. I rushed over to have a look. It's amazing that under the lid is not the complicated mechanical system I expected, but It's empty. It's really empty. The wheelchair, like a toilet with handrails and side baffles, was so bulky that I thought I would see a bunch of sophisticated instruments when I opened it, but it turned out to be empty. The shape seems to be made according to the design goal of the storage box.

"This, this, this What about the power system of this thing? "

"Here it is." The old man raised a ball in his hand. This is a very standard ball. Its appearance is bright blue. It looks like plexiglass. Of course, there is no such material in the game, so it should be made of other materials. The diameter of the blue ball is about seven or eight centimeters. It's just right to hold it in your hand. It's very comfortable to hold it. It's not too big or small. It's just

"Is this the power system?" I didn't expect that the power system of this wheelchair was external. What's more, it overturned all my common sense. Let's not say what principle this little ball is suspended by. It's very difficult to understand the transmission problem alone, because the ball is not connected to the wheelchair, but caught by the old man. In this case, if the ball produces buoyancy, how does it transfer power to the chair? Is it through the old man's body? But if the chair is hung on the ball by the old man's arm, what does he want? Isn't it easier to sew the ball directly onto the clothes? What's more, even if the clothes can't withstand the tension, it's OK to put the ball in the storage box behind the chair? What's the matter with this in your hand?

The old man didn't know if he was old and slow to react or didn't know how to observe his words and expressions. Anyway, he didn't react until the very big guy next to him found out the problem. Instead, it was the very big guy who explained to me, "did you misunderstand something?"

"Misunderstanding?"

Seeing me staring at him, the muscular man immediately explained: "the doctor means that the thing in his hand can provide power to make the suspension chair move, and the buoyancy of the chair itself is not provided by the ball!"

"So it is After hearing this explanation, I finally understood. Fortunately, there were only me and the old man at the scene from time to time, otherwise I would be entangled by this problem! The moving speed of the suspended wheelchair is not fast, and there is no friction force after it is suspended. Therefore, if it only provides the strength to move forward and backward, it can be done by the arms of the elderly. After all, this force is not bigger than pushing a wheelchair in reality. On the contrary, because this wheelchair is suspended, the resistance will be much smaller. "Well, if this thing only provides horizontal power, then what does this thing levitate on?"

"The levitation, of course, depends on the air magic stone."

"Air magic stone?" Because the iron and steel Empire has little contact with the outside world, and the direction of social development is completely different, so many things in the iron and steel empire are given their own unique names. For example, I have never heard of this air magic stone outside, and I don't know whether it is a special mineral of the iron and steel empire or some known ore, but the name of the iron and steel empire is different. "Where is the air magic stone you said? Can you show it to me? "

"The one in the chair has been fixed. If you want to see it, you need to remove the cover plate. It's very troublesome. If you want to see it, we can go to the weapons depot. There are ready-made air magic stones."

As soon as I heard what the other party said, I immediately asked the other party to take me there, and the order received before the other party came was to take me on a tour. So I heard that I wanted to see the other party and agreed without hesitation.

To get to the so-called Equipment Depot, you have to go into the dungeon. As mentioned before, the main body of the iron empire is actually underground, and the part on the ground is only some military facilities. Although the equipment depot is also a military facility, it is located underground because it belongs to the logistics department.The city's underground road lies in the middle of the island in the middle of the mountain. Although the mountain looks like a very ordinary mountain, its interior has been hollowed out for a long time. Almost one third of the whole mountain area has been changed into functional area, and only two-thirds of the vegetation covered on the surface of the mountain is real. The rest is camouflage. As long as the operator presses a switch, those plants will automatically separate with the camouflage board to expose the defense guns below. Therefore, this mountain is not so much a mountain as a fortress Some.

The access to the mountain is at the foot of the mountain, and the entrance is also equipped with camouflage doors. However, I think this design is totally unnecessary. After all, outside the camouflage door is a wide road paved with gravel. Even if you hide the door, the road is still there. At that time, when people saw a road directly extending to the mountain, they suddenly disappeared. The fool also knew that there was a camouflage door.

After passing through the huge camouflage door, what we saw was not a downward tunnel, but a slightly upward slope. After more than a meter of rise, the road became horizontal again. However, the landscape in front of us reminded me of the underground foundation of Longyuan. The huge hall is supported by several huge stone pillars. The open space is full of busy personnel and machinery. The walls and ground of the hall are covered with metal, and it seems that the thickness is not low. It is estimated that even if other Americans' ground penetrating bombs hit this place, there may not be any damage.

I'm still watching the hall. The muscle man over there has found a car. Although this thing is different from the real car, it is also very different from the carriage in the game. In fact, I think it's better to call a car than a mobile platform, because it's a big flat plate with a bunch of wheels under it. Those wheels are not big. They are only fifty centimeters in diameter at most. The metal plate on the wheel is two inches thick, about five meters long and more than two meters wide. There is no cab or steering wheel on the metal plate. The control device is an upright stick at the corner, which is just like the control lever of a fighter. If you want to move in any direction, just hold the rod and push it in that direction. And the greater the tilt of the lever, the faster the speed.

It's amazing how simple it is, but it also gives me a chance to ask for a try. Because there are no seats and other things on the flat panel, you can't count on comfort. Fortunately, the metal floor is flat enough, so it's not bumpy at all. After obtaining the permission, I personally tested the car and found that it was very sensitive to the operation and could hardly feel the response time. That is to say, it may be a mechanical direct connection structure similar to a bicycle, which is used to operate the direction and drive. No matter whether the magic circuit or the electronic circuit will have response delay, it may not be felt by ordinary people, but With my reflex nerves, I'm sure you can find it.

In addition to its agility, this car has a feature of sufficient power. I don't know whether it's the result of gear adjustment or the power unit itself. Anyway, it's absolutely powerful. It feels quite fierce when I start. Even if I push the lever to the end in an instant, the car will immediately raise its speed. However, although the horsepower is strong and the speed is very fast, the machine selection speed of this thing is very slow. Even if the limit speed is about 30 kilometers, which is faster than normal people, it is also limited.

According to the muscular man's explanation, the main reason why this thing is not fast is that it is specially responsible for transporting materials up and down the ground. It belongs to the commuter car in the base, and its function is similar to the forklift in the factory, so it needs power rather than speed.

After playing for a while, I roughly tested out the performance of this thing, and then gave the car back to the muscle man to drive. He drove the car to a gate. Inside the gate was an enclosed space. I could see that it was an elevator, but the area was very large. If you squeeze in, you can park more than a dozen tanks.

After we drove into the elevator hall, many cars came in one after another, but these cars were empty. There were three people standing on each of them. It seemed that they were transportation personnel. After seeing me, those people all showed their curious eyes. It felt like we saw aliens on the road. Fortunately, several guides around me seemed to be very respectable. Therefore, although the people over there were staring at me and pointing, they didn't come around to watch the heat.

After the suspected elevator was full, it was lowered and the gate began to move downward. I calculated it according to the falling speed. The underground city was actually located more than 180 meters below the ground surface. Even if it was a direct elevator, it took more than 30 seconds to reach the end.

When the elevator door opens, the first thing we see is a wide passage area. This passage is like a subway platform, but the location of the rail is replaced by a row of elevators, and the space in front is much larger than the waiting area of the subway station.

Because of our different identities, we were the first to drive down the elevator. The muscle man steered the car into the passage and immediately turned into the left side branch road. After running for a short distance, we could see a gate with a height of 56 meters and a width of nearly 10 meters on the left wall. Different from ordinary warehouses, there are not only guards outside the gate, but also blockhouses. We first accepted the inspection of the former sentry ten meters away from the gate, and then we were released. After passing through the blockhouse, we reached the door, then the muscle man motioned us to get out of the car, and then led us through a small door on the edge of the gate to get into the interior of the gate."This is our equipment depot. How about it? Isn't that good? " Muscle man obviously belongs to the type of military representative, because he is very proud when introducing the equipment warehouse, while the fat man and the half demented old man do not respond.

Under the introduction of muscle man, I looked around the entire equipment warehouse, and I have to say that muscle man really has proud capital. The area here is very large. I feel that the experimental weapon reserve of Longyuan is not as large as this place. The wide storage area seems to have at least tens of thousands of square meters. The shelves inside are like supermarkets. Each shelf is equipped with equipment. Of course, it is impossible to have as many kinds of goods as the supermarket. After all, this is a reserve, not a supermarket. Most of the shelves are decorated with gorgeous rifles that I saw before. After a casual glance, I saw thousands of rifles. It is estimated that this item belongs to the marking equipment here. If I send out all the rifles I see, it is estimated that the steel empire will get one.

Muscle man from my face to see the surprised expression, then satisfied to guide me: "please come here, you want to see the air magic stone here."

In fact, muscle man's so-called air magic stone is not pure ore. this is an equipment warehouse rather than a simple warehouse. It is impossible to put the mineral directly here. What muscle man showed me is actually a kind of equipment that has been processed. However, since this kind of equipment is only polished ore, it can be considered as raw ore.

"Is this the magic stone of the air?" I looked at the air magic stone in my hand and asked in surprise. In front of me, the air magic stone is long, about 15 cm long, about 5 cm wide, and about 1 cm thick. It looks a bit like the Paperweight stone used in the study, but the color is strange. The color of this thing is a very dazzling orange. It looks like the reflective clothing on the cleaners. I have never seen this color in natural minerals before.

After I picked up a piece of air magic stone, muscle man also took one and explained: "this is the air magic stone, but the raw ore is not a long strip, but a strange shape. There are all kinds of things. What you see here is the finished product that we have broken and re bonded after separating the raw ore from the impurities

"Is this reconstituted with powder?"

"Yes, the separated air magic stone itself is irregular in shape and usually does not have such a large size. It's not easy to get the whole piece, but the air magic stone has no change in performance

I nodded and asked, "do you have a lot of this ore on your island?"

The muscle man shook his head and said, "in fact, the storage of air magic stone is not high. The storage in this warehouse is almost one third of the island's reserves. Half of the remaining two-thirds are in use, and one-third is proved reserves, which have not yet been mined and processed. "

"Did you find this mining area?"

"Yes, we have only found this mining area, and the area is very small. However, we estimate that this kind of ore should not be the only one that exists. It should also be found in other places. It is just that it has not been discovered, or the people who discovered it do not know its value. "

I nodded and asked, "what's this thing glued to?"

"Just add water."

"Ah?"

"The air magic stone is a very strange mineral. It has a characteristic different from ordinary ores, that is, it will slowly dissolve in water. We smash it, dissolve it in water, and then pour it into the mold to dry. When the water evaporates completely, it will become the finished product in your hand

"Will it dissolve in water? Why does it sound like salt? "

"It's kind of like salt." Muscle man said: "this kind of air magic stone once formed will become relatively strong, its own hardness is very high, is a little brittle, but in terms of our current use needs, the impact is not big."

"What are you doing with this stuff?"

"For weight reduction, of course." The muscular man showed off his muscles for a moment, then explained, "you should have noticed that most of the inhabitants of our iron empire are very thin and weak, and there are very few strong people like me. Although our inventors have tried their best to consider the weight of the weapons, they still feel that they are too heavy. So we use this air magic stone to reduce the weight. If we need to lighten the weight of the weapons, but we can't really reduce the weight of the equipment, we will install a few pieces of air magic stones, and this kind of heavy equipment will become very light. And you know, the air magic stone is soluble, so we can make any shape according to our needs, so even the close fitting armor can easily add a layer of air magic stone inside to reduce the weight

I was excited to hear that even armor can add air magic stones. It's not because I intend to reduce the armor weight of our guild players. After all, the armor in the game itself ignores part of the weight, and the game system does not allow players to change their equipment randomly. Therefore, I have no intention to change the equipment of players. What I really think of is the mobile angel. These guys themselves are artificial artifacts. If you add air magic stones that can reduce the load, wouldn't it be possible to increase the power by a large amount without changing the power system?Just thinking about the bright future of adding air magic stone to mobile angels, I suddenly realized a problem. Weighing the hand of this at least half a kilogram of air magic stone, I am very surprised to ask the muscle man: "you don't say this thing can lose weight? Why am I so heavy in my hand?
