Volume 44 Chapter 16 Road

Lin Xiuxian chuckled, "It's not easy to get this thing. Just a while ago, a knight came from the Diyuan Realm, and I found a small part of it in the Diyuan Realm. It's stored at a friend of mine for sale. You can see if it's enough!"

As Lin Xiuxian said, he handed over the lead cylinder.

Zhang Tie took the lead tube, and as soon as he unscrewed it, a golden crystal the size of a fist floated out of the stick tube, like a balloon in a child's hand, and floated directly to the ceiling. Iron Eye was quick, grabbed the crystal, and then covered the lead cylinder at once.

"Be careful, this thing is really going to float away, and I have nothing to do with it," Lin Xiuxian reminded quickly.

Zhang Tie nodded, holding the fist-sized crystal with his hand, and looked at it seriously.

The fist-sized crystal is like a combination of gold and crystal. It not only has the texture and luster of metal, but also presents a translucent color. What is even more amazing is that this thing will float away as soon as you let go of your hand. Even if you hold it at this moment, Zhang Iron could still feel its eagerness to break free from his grasp.

This is metal, the most expensive and mysterious metal in the world today, and the raw material for the Taixia royal family to make the core components of the airship is floating gold.

Even Zhang Tie saw what the raw ore of floating gold looked like for the first time.

"How many more are there in the lead cylinder?"

"There are 7 more of the same size!"

"Okay, thank you." Zhang Tie said, unscrewed the lead tube, put the floating gold that was about to float away into it again, then took the lead tube over, and put it directly into a space ring on his hand. Inside, it's strange to say that the floating gold that was struggling to fly away in his hand became calm as soon as it was put into the lead tube, just suspended quietly.

Then Zhang Tie took out fourteen earth element crystals from the interspatial ring on his hand, and pushed them in front of Lin Xiuxian.

During this process, Lin Xiuxian and Zhu Daqian looked at the interspatial ring on Zhang Tie's hand with unabashed amazement, watching Zhang Tie take things out of the interspatial ring and put them in again. It's like juggling.

Space equipment, which is rare for knights, is even more extraordinary for these rune alchemists, since Zhang Tie first revealed the space ring he was wearing in front of the two of them. It stopped the two of them.

"Grandma, when I get rich and become a craftsman, I will also get a portable space equipment to wear." Lin Xiuxian said, not slow in his hands. Instead, he quickly put the earth element crystals that Zhang Tie took out into a storage bag that he carried with him, presumably as a space ring, these elemental crystals were also extremely eye-catching.

"If you want to become a master craftsman, you don't know that you have to wait until the year of the monkey. To be more practical, why don't we save enough earth crystals, and when will we go to Taiyi City to open two secret treasure pearls to try our luck!" Zhu Daqian also said "ruthlessly Ruthlessly," he glanced at the space ring on Zhang Tie's hand, and then said.

"The space ring in your hand is too obtrusive. It doesn't matter if you are in Tiangong City. If you want to leave the city, you must be careful. This thing makes knights jealous. You are a tenth-level strong fighter. Others If you snatch your things, you won’t even blink your eyelids, if there is a demon in your heart, then you will act like a demon, and your space equipment will make people enchanted!” Lin Xiuxian, who put away the earth element crystal, also reminded Zhang Tie.

"Thank you, Brother Lin, for reminding me. I know that I know how to disguise myself a bit. If I go outside, I will protect myself!" Zhang Tie said with a faint smile. "It's just this empty gold. I don't know if Brother Lin has the means to get some more. The price is easy to negotiate!"

"This floating gold is a product of the Earth Yuan Realm. The largest floating gold mine in the Earth Yuan Realm is in the hands of the Taixia Royal Family. Except for the Taixia Royal Family, how can anyone else obtain a large amount of floating gold. Just me I just brought these, and a knight was lucky enough to dig them in a mine in the Earth Element Realm, and besides the Taixia royal family, ordinary people have little use for this floating gold, the secret method of making flying boats with floating gold, It's all in the hands of the Taixia royal family!" Lin Xiuxian took a serious look at Zhang Tie, "For us rune refiners, the rune compatibility of this floating gold is too poor, and it can't be fused with other metals. Even if you barely make a set of floating gold equipment, you can’t use it. Wearing it on your body is like flying a kite. How you move is not up to you. In the past, there was a rune refiner in Tiangong City who made a pair of wings with floating gold. Equipment, I put it on myself, it looks majestic, but in the end because it is not easy to control the direction in the sky, the rune refiner almost threw himself to death, why do you need so much floating gold?"

"To tell you the truth, I am planning to design a brand new set of steam centrifugal guns recently. Now the heat and durability of the main shaft bearing of the steam centrifugal gun is a big problem when it is running at high speed. I am going to collect some floating gold to make a set that can carry high Turn, the air-floating gold suspension bearing with zero wear and high durability" Zhang Tie started to draw on the table top of the table where several people were drinking while talking.

This bar is a bar dedicated to the gathering of rune refiners. When rune refiners gather together, it is commonplace to discuss various armed equipment and design drawings, so the tabletop here is a magnetic rune drawing platform. Now, you can draw the things in your head on the desktop at any time, so that people around you can discuss together.

Zhang Tie drew a simple design concept of the steam centrifugal cannon he had imagined on the desktop.

Although the things on the table were drawn by Zhang Tie at random, as a basic skill of a rune refiner, the things Zhang Tie drew casually are like drawings made by other designers with drawing tools such as rulers and compasses. The lines are as straight as possible. There is no wrinkle, and the circle is so round that people can't find any faults. In less than a minute, Zhang Tie drew a rough design sketch of the steam centrifugal cannon on the desktop, and wrote down the approximate parameters. symbol.

Lin Xiuxian and Zhu Daqian looked at the image drawn by Zhang Tie seriously. They frowned while thinking about it. After a long time, Zhu Daqian touched his chin and asked Zhang Tie directly, "Your design is interesting. The main turntable of your steam centrifugal cannon is closer to the traditional energy storage flywheel design. This design must allow the flywheel to operate in a vacuum, so that the energy loss during the operation of the flywheel can be minimized. At the same time, a non-contact suspension main bearing is used. , although doing so can make the speed of the flywheel reach the maximum value and increase the speed of the ammunition fired a lot, but the investment has also increased many times accordingly. In particular, the suspension main bearing should also be made of floating gold material, from the perspective of input and output In terms of scale, it is completely uneconomical. If you have the time and effort to make this thing, an ordinary steam centrifugal cannon can make more than ten. The strike effect is several times that of this. Do you want to use this thing to participate in the annual meeting held by the Rune Refiner Union? Steam Centrifugal Running Range Contest" Speaking of this, Zhu Daqian looked at Zhang Tie seriously again, and then shook his head, "It shouldn't be. That kind of competition is participated by rune refiners below secret talisman craftsmen , old iron, you still need to join in such fun.”

"No." Lin Xiuxian's eyes suddenly flashed brightly, "Old Tie, you still have a hand, here" Lin Xiuxian also clicked on the desktop picture drawn by Zhang Tie, "Old Tie, you seem to have left something here , not drawn"

Zhang Tie sighed secretly in his heart. As expected, he is a veteran who has been in Tiangong City for decades. The interface of the module has been seen.

Now that Lin Xiuxian has seen it. Then Zhang Tie had nothing to hide, so he simply moved his hands again, and drew something where Lin Xiuxian pointed, adding a common symbol used by rune refiners to communicate.

"A high-speed air-floating gold vacuum flywheel centrifugal disc, coupled with an explosive high-pressure steam propulsion valve, this thing, even if the cost is high, should be enough to kill the masters of the war spirit level, but. Even if it is necessary Killing the war spirit seems to be a big fuss." Lin Xiuxian suddenly widened his eyes and looked at Zhang Tie, "Don't tell me, old iron, you also want to make a steam centrifugal cannon that can kill knights?"

Zhang Tie rubbed his face, "What is it called?"

"Because it's almost a similar design. I've seen it decades ago. It was designed by my master, but it didn't work in the end!" Lin Xiuxian sighed, stretched out his hand to perfect Zhang Tie's sketch, "At that time, I was still young, and my master was already a master craftsman. At that time, he also had an ambition to manufacture equipment and weapons that could kill knights. In the end, he chose the steam centrifugal gun as a breakthrough. At that time, my master also chose the flywheel. At that time, my master thought that the highest speed of the flywheel could reach 10,000 revolutions per minute. If a flywheel with a diameter of several hundred meters could be manufactured, then when the speed of such a flywheel reached 10,000 revolutions per minute, The line on the edge of the flywheel may reach a terrifying level. Anything thrown by the flywheel at this speed will have huge kinetic energy. When this huge kinetic energy reaches a certain level, it will be able to kill the knight, but "

"But did your master finally discover that the maximum mechanical line of any flywheel edge can only be below the sound level, and it can be infinitely close, but it is impossible to pass it. The theoretical rotation of a 10,000-turn flywheel is only limited to a small diameter in a vacuum. Flywheel, once the flywheel is directly enlarged, its physical limit will come!" Zhang Tie smiled wryly and said.

"That's right, that's exactly what happened. Later, my master thought of another way, which is to apply a boost to the shell of the steam centrifugal cannon at the moment it leaves the flywheel turntable, that is, to add an explosive high-pressure steam propulsion valve at this position. , but even so, after my master has worked hard for twenty years, the best result he can finally achieve is to make the initial speed of the shell reach about meters per second, which is only equivalent to five times the sound. The attack speed of a steam centrifugal cannon at this speed , can kill the war spirit, but still can't kill the knight"

"and after?"

Lin Xiuxian pursed his lips, his eyes turned red, "That old man was unwilling to reconcile, and finally thought of a way to abandon the design of the explosive high-pressure steam propulsion valve, and wanted to use the explosion of a pure alchemy bomb to increase the initial strength of the steam centrifugal cannon. , After several experiments, there was an accident in one experiment, I blew myself up to death, and finally left me alone in Tiangong City!" Lin Xiuxian looked at Zhang Tie and said seriously, "Old Tie , I know you are not short of money, but this road, many talented rune refiners want to go, all want to leave their names in history, and make themselves the pinnacle of human rune refiners, but no one has succeeded."

Zhang Tie knew that Lin Xiuxian was telling the truth, because what he said was exactly the results obtained by Zhang Tie himself in the laboratory and in the Black Iron Fort in the past two months. The maximum speed can only be infinitely close to the meter per second, and cannot be exceeded, and the increase imposed by the explosive high-pressure steam propulsion valve is limited by the power of the steam explosion. In the end, the highest initial speed of the shells flying out can only be below meters per second.

"I still want to try, maybe there are other ways!"

"There are two ways, either to make the mechanical line of the flywheel break through the sound, or to give greater boost to the shell of the steam centrifugal cannon. But the limit of the boost that steam can achieve can already be seen, and the alchemy bomb does not at all Reliable, its reaction is too violent, before killing the enemy, it will kill its own people first."

"Steam and alchemy bombs are not the only way!"

"You're right. Before my master died, he had a flashback. He said that maybe someone can use the rune array to increase the shell rate of the steam centrifugal cannon or break through the maximum mechanical line of the flywheel, but master the rune array. It is the skill of the top-level craftsman among the rune refiners. The entire Taixia master-level rune refiner can be counted in two palms. What's more, all the skills that rune refiners can use now Runes, there is no rune that can increase the speed of non-living objects. Now the Rune Refining Master Union spends a lot of effort in the Earth Element World every year. I want to find such ancient runes from the Earth Element World, but there is no one. Harvest, I even wonder if such runes existed even in ancient times, the road you want to take, old iron, will be very, very difficult."

"I know it will be very, very difficult, but there are at least two ways to go on. If I don't try, I will be a little unwilling. Just do my best and obey the destiny!" Zhang Tie also sighed.

These two months. After trying again and again and failing again and again, Zhang Tie's obsession in his heart has not changed, but he is more aware of what kind of road he is facing. If this road is really so easy to walk. To be honest, I'm afraid I've been walked by others countless times, and it's not Zhang Tie's turn to try again now.

"Then I can only wish you good luck. I will leave Tiangong City in a few days and go to Yunzhou. The Meng family of Hongshengtang in Yunzhou City is going to build a first-class city. I have a little bit with an elder of the Meng family. Friendship, he invited me to preside over the setting up of the city defense system of the Meng family city, and offered a reward of 10,000 gold coins, and I will also earn some pocket money for myself, and I will bid farewell to you two today."

Zhu Daqian also smiled wryly, "You also accepted the job? I may report to Bingzhou City in two days!"

"What's your business?"

"Didn't I tinker with and design a small nitrogen separator before? I also have a little experience in separating nitrogen from air. I thought this thing would be of little use. I didn't expect an official who had been working hard to find Tiangong yesterday. City, invited me to a military factory in Huanzhou to participate in the design of a weapon project"

Unexpectedly, the matter of Zhu Daqian had something to do with him. Zhang Tie could only lament that the world was too small. The person who came to find Zhu Daqian was naturally not arranged by himself. He was probably Lu Yanyu's subordinate. Don't know what to say.

"What weapons program?"

"A flame-breathing tank that uses candle oil, and I'm in charge of the nitrogen liquefaction device in the tank!"

"Fire-breathing tank?" Lin Xiuxian was obviously startled, but Zhang Tie was calm, because this was already in his expectation. When the candle dragon collar took out those candle oil weapons, he thought of the strength and strength of Taixia. With power, he would naturally find a way to create a more powerful weapon, he was just starting.

"Of course, if you look at the situation in several states in the war zone, candle oil production bases are being built everywhere, and the fields are full of fermenters and earthworm breeding ponds for the real earth nectar. This scene is simply It's more lively than when there was no war. This Qianji real person is really unpredictable. Originally, the territory of several states was still gloomy. He had only taken over as General Weiji for a few months. All of them were wiped out, the common people, rich families, officials, all enthusiastically, and even many factories in Tiangong City began to study candle oil weapons. No wonder such a person was selected as General Weiji by Da Simaan !" Zhu Daqian said with reverence.

"Ahem, Master Qianji may just be lucky. I heard that he is still young and doesn't understand anything!" Zhang Tie coughed twice.

"Hahaha, old iron, we all know that you have a high spirit, but this Qianji real person is indeed a real hero and man. There is also an Iron Dragon Sect in Zhouzhou. When you were not here last year, Lao Zhu and I were discussing that if we were tired of staying in Tiangong City, why not go to Youzhou to have a meal with the Iron Dragon Sect? I guess I won't be turned away by people with my ability," Lin Xiuxian said with a big laugh.

"Based on the abilities of the two old brothers, if we really want to go to the Iron Dragon School, the real Qianji will definitely open a hall for the two old brothers, so that the two old brothers can be alone!" Zhang Tie also smiled.

"Hahaha, then thank you, old iron, for your good words. By the way, how long will you stay in Tiangong City? If you stay for a long time, I will introduce a few friends to you in two days."

"I'm about to leave Tiangong City. I have learned a lot from Tiangong City this time for more than two months. Some things really can't be rushed. I can only find a solution step by step. The current world is getting more and more chaotic. , if the thing I said is not available for the time being, I want to improve my strength first, practice hard for a period of time, and strive to advance to the next level as soon as possible, it is not a bad thing!"

This time I came to Tiangong City and stayed in Tiangong City for two months. Zhang Tie’s biggest gain is to understand the difficulties and obstacles to be overcome in order to realize his idea. It can't even be solved by his current level of rune refining. After understanding this, Zhang Tie already has the intention to leave, and it doesn't make much sense to stay in Tiangong City.

There is no need for him to do things in the rear now, all aspects are basically arranged properly, everything is done step by step, and there will be no major troubles, so Zhang Tie wants to go deep into the war zone alone, for no other reason, first let himself advance to the phantom What matters is knights. Generals who are encumbered are all false names in Zhang Tie's eyes. What others can give you today will naturally be taken away tomorrow. A little vanity in officialdom is really nothing to Zhang Tie. Swallowing the party Meng Shidao is still eyeing Xuanyuan Hill, so Zhang Tie doesn't want to get too involved in Taixia's officialdom, which is not a good thing for him.

For a knight, strength and rank are the biggest reliance. This time going deep into the war zone is the worst. You can also kill a few more demon knights, or make trouble for the demons and Tongtianjiao to relieve a little pressure on the rear , In the past two months, the situation in the war zone, although Taixia has slowed down, is still not optimistic. It is really difficult for Zhang Tie, as a knight, to be able to stay idle at this time (to be continued.) . Pavilion to get view.◆
