Chapter 721 Dragoon I Type

Gawain reacted for two seconds before finally showing an uncontrollable smile of joy.

Amber was still beaming happily a second ago, but after seeing Gawain's expression, he stopped in a daze.

She seldom saw Gawain so unconcealed about his emotions, and rarely saw the latter smile so happily.

He never smiled like that when he was crowned.

Is the original "aircraft" such an important thing?

"Let's go and have a look," Gawain dragged Amber over and strode towards the door, "It's at the Eastern Suburbs Proving Ground, right?"

"Oh, oh yes... Hey, let go, I will go by myself, don't drag... don't carry... don't put me under your arm again! I will..."

...

At the suburban test site, the "Dragons" who successfully completed the first flight experiment have already landed smoothly in the open space. A large group of technicians are busy around this flying machine, checking every part of it again and again. again. Rebecca, as the general manager of the project, also took part in the battle in person. With tools in her hand, she circled around the mechanical cabin. There were several oil stains on her face and stains on her clothes, but she smiled more than everyone on the scene. Brilliant - happy like a child.

Maggie stood quietly by the side, looking at the busy and beaming scene in front of her, her eyes fell on Rebecca from time to time - over the years, Maggie has seen all kinds of human nobles, but Rebecca Such a "princess" is the only one she has ever seen in her life.

"Perfect, perfect, no faults at all! No fractures, no shedding, no overheating, none of the faults that have occurred before..." A magician jumped down from the connecting shaft of the Dragon Wing servo, full of The face was excited, "The new structure works!"

"That's right!" Rebecca also drilled out from under the main vertebral body of the aircraft, her eyes sparkling, "It's not in vain that we have tested thousands of times..."

Maggie knew that the thousands of tests that Rebecca spoke of were not all actual test flights, and most of them were done in the Origin Lab—but even though it was a simulated environment, the hard work of everyone on the team paid off. It's real.

With this change of mind, Rebecca has come to Maggie, and she smiled like a flower: "Hey, hey, Maggie, how does it feel to fly?"

Maggie was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head a little dull, and said politely, "It feels very... good, Your Highness."

She is always not used to the behavior of this princess who is not aristocratic at all,

But no matter what, after all, she represents the face of the Duke of the North, and she still has to try her best to be polite and considerate.

"Don't be so tense all the time, we're not in the city, and Aunt Heidi and Lord Ancestor can't see, so it's fine to relax a little," Rebecca patted Maggie's shoulder carelessly, and slapped it down After that, she let out an "Oops" with hindsight, she quickly pulled her hand back, glanced at the oil stain on her hand, wiped it hard on her robe, and then patted Maggie on the other shoulder, "Experimental. There is no title in the room, which is what we agreed at the beginning."

Maggie raised her head and glanced behind the other party with a strange expression: "...But, Your Highness, I think the necessary etiquette is still necessary..."

After hearing this, Rebecca couldn't help but puff out her mouth: "Why do you sound like my aunt. I tell you, it's always tense and easy to get old. Aunt is usually too tight and has dark circles under her eyes. It is getting heavier and heavier every day, and the ancestors are so serious all day long, I can see his wrinkles..."

Maggie looked up again, wisely chose to shut her mouth, and silently stepped aside.

Several technicians around also looked up behind Rebecca, each with a strange expression, and stepped back slightly in tacit understanding.

Rebecca looked around, felt the atmosphere, thought for a while, and came to the conclusion—

Mom, I'm cold.

The experienced Her Royal Highness knew what to do without being reminded by others. She wiped both hands on her robe, then hugged her head and slowly squatted down: "Can you not hit the head this time..."

Just as Rebecca squatted halfway, a strong hand stretched out from behind and lifted her up by the collar: "Stop squatting, Heidi is not here."

When Rebecca heard Gawain's voice, she quickly turned her head and glanced while being held by the collar, only to see the helpless ancestor and Amber following the ancestor - just the two of them, Hetty Aunt wasn't there.

The expression she had just restrained suddenly brightened again: "Master Ancestor, you are here!!"

Ancestor has always spoiled himself very much. Although he usually looks serious, he is different from his aunt's seriousness - he won't knock himself on the head, Rebecca is very clear about this.

From childhood to adulthood, she has been very optimistic, and this optimism is mainly reflected in the fact that she can find sunshine by herself, and then she is brilliant.

In fact, Gawain still wanted to knock the girl's head. After all, as far as he knew, Rebecca had not been beaten for three days. Judging from experience, this silly roe deer's current mentality should be wandering from the roof to the setting of fire. Between the mountains, but before that, his attention had already fallen on the odd-looking machine next to him.

He stared for a long time at the device whose shape and principle were completely different from the "aircraft" he remembered, his thoughts fluctuated, and after a long time he said softly: "This is our aircraft..."

Really different, totally different.

It is an inverted cone-shaped device similar to a gyroscope. The diameter of the main body is about two to three meters. A metal ring full of runes floats on the lower part of the cone. The ring should be the anti-gravity ring. It passes through a long-term The effective force field continues to float at the root of the vertebral body, controlling the lifting and gravitational balance of the entire device, while the two sides and the top of the device each have a half-moon-shaped main wing and a rudder wing that imitates a dragon wing, which makes it look as a whole. It looks like a huge, upright steel insect, a little weird, but full of the unique beauty of the magic industry.

Gawain couldn't see a trace of "airplane" on it.

This is the aircraft that Rebecca led the magicians to create based on the technology and logic of this world after he completely let go of the earth experience and only told the technical team about the application requirements and some performance characteristics.

A bold attempt, the result proved Gawain's long-term thinking: the magic world's own technical route is the most suitable technical route here.

It's not that he didn't want to copy the planes on the earth to this world. After all, although many rules of this world are very different from those of the earth, at least this world also has wind and birds, which means that aerodynamic-based aircraft have It was possible, but he didn't do it in the end.

Because he doesn't know everything, even if he has enhanced memory ability and huge "miscellaneous knowledge", he also has areas that he is not good at, and aircraft manufacturing is undoubtedly one of them.

In the early stages, some simple machines might still be able to be pieced together with the miscellaneous knowledge in his mind, but an aircraft is an overly specialized thing, and Gawain knew that the rough sketches he could recall could only mislead the technicians under him. ——Not to mention the fact that he has to face the fact that due to the unique elemental spells, the technical foundation of this world in the field of aerodynamics is blank, but there is a ready-made anti-gravity technical route here.

Instead of drawing a bunch of error-riddled sketches, and then having technicians light up a tech tree from scratch based on that, it's better for them to derive and transform on the technologies already in the world -- after all, this The world itself has flying units such as griffin knights and giant eagle knights, and more powerful mages can fly directly in the sky. Mortals are not blank in the sky field. Under this premise, even if he spends several years to create them With the original aircraft based on aerodynamics, I am afraid that it cannot compete with the existing air units in this world. It is better to try it boldly, let Rebecca and her technical team let go and directly challenge the mature anti-gravity air combat. platform.

The result of this daring attempt is the "dragon cavalry", which has a strange appearance, but whose performance definitely exceeds that of the early earth aircraft.

Relying on anti-gravity vertical take-off and landing, it is highly flexible, able to fight in the air with well-trained griffin knights and achieve suppression. It uses dragon wing runes to carry out "magic wave drive", and its maximum speed exceeds that of the giant eagle of the elves. At the same time, the wind runes all over the vertebral shell and the rune group of the dragon wing itself have also solved the wind resistance problem caused by its strange shape. If coupled with advanced magic weapons and communication devices, it will undoubtedly become a The most advanced and powerful air power of this era.

Of course, it must still have many shortcomings. As a brand new product, and it is the most complex and advanced technology product, it still needs to undergo a lot of tests, and it will take some time before mass production, but in any case, this The road has finally been proven to work.

The structure of this aircraft will become the cornerstone of Cecil's series of flight technologies in the future, and the experience it has accumulated may be able to benefit for a hundred years...

"Yeah, this is the aircraft we built..." Rebecca raised her head with a proud smile on her face, "It took a lot of effort!"

Then she said: "Master Ancestor, do you want to give it an official name? After all, 'Dragoon' is just a code name..."

"The official name is also called Dragoon. I think the code name itself is vivid and pleasant," Gao Wen laughed. "Referring to the Warhammer tank, this type of anti-gravity aircraft is named Dragoon I."

Speaking of this, he suddenly moved in his heart and couldn't help but look at Maggie who was standing quietly beside him.

"Speaking of which, as a dragon clan, do you have any thoughts on the name 'dragon cavalry'?"

Maggie thought for a while in confusion and shook her head: "No idea...Why do you ask that, Your Majesty?"

"I'm just worried that this name will make the Dragon Clan unhappy," Gawain laughed a little embarrassedly, "I didn't think much about it before when I set the code name, and I didn't ask you for your opinion, but this time I suddenly felt a little out of place. You Dragon Clan Don't you think the word is offensive? After all it implies a dragon as a mount..."

Maggie froze for a moment, then smiled faintly after a moment.

"Your Majesty, I don't quite know what the dragons of Tal Lond think, but as far as I know, humans on the continent have used dragons as important roles in various epic stories and myths for hundreds of years or more. time, and most of the time this important role is not very bright - the dragon robs the castle, hijacks the princess, invades the property, threatens the kingdom, brave adventurers and knights fight off the dragon, occupy the dragon's lair, and even transform the dragon into a dragon. For the mount, after so many years, have you seen those bards and families who made up stories being hunted down by Tallond or the Duchy of the Holy Dragon?"

"...It doesn't seem to be..."

"Dragon, don't care about the stories of humans, because no matter how long the stories of humans are, they will soon go away with the wind. Even the relatively short-lived 'degenerate dragonborn' of the Holy Dragon Principality have plenty of room to watch. Bring even the most exciting legends of mankind to dust," Maggie said with a slight smile, but then added, "Of course, you are the 'protagonist' of the story who has returned to the stage of history, for dragons probably It was an accident..."

Gao Wen: "..."

It's really surprising that the guys in the Mithril Treasure House who made their fortune by occupying the entrusted objects have been jumping for a long time because of the consignor who was resurrected from the dead. It is said that not only did they dug thousands of graves in a month, I also recruited hundreds of souls by the way...

Maggie also seemed to think this topic was a little weird, and turned it back rather bluntly: "So in general, when it comes to these 'trivial offenses', the dragon's attitude is far more free and easy than you think. Of course, I just As for what the 'orthodox' dragons in Tallond will think after seeing the 'Dragons'... I am afraid that only the 'senior agent' who is familiar with you can give The answer is."

The figure of My little pony appeared in Gawain's mind.

I don't know what the blue dragon from the dragon kingdom would think when he knew that humans imitated the principle of dragon wings to create an aircraft called "dragon cavalry".

I don't even know how she would respond if she asked Melita if the dragons would give people a ride—would she be furious, or would she just come out with a bunch of reasoning?

Gao Wen thought about it for a long time, and suddenly felt that the answer might not be "7 yuan for the start, 500 yuan for the whole day, tolls for crossing the bridge, and extra money for night trains"...
