Chapter 649

?

"He's full of weird ideas, I know what he wants to do." Merlinsera shook her head, but she saw Nai Fei looking around, and whispered: "Do you want to go and see? I want to see, but I'm afraid Mom said eh..."

"Your mother really cares about everything. That fellow Rody doesn't even know high-level spells, so what else can he research?"

Melinsella rolled her eyes. She always felt that Rody, a guy who is not good at spells, must have low technical content, so she was unwilling to look at it with airs. In her opinion, "papermaking" and "movable type printing" are very simple things, and their technical content is far inferior to high-level spells.

But... there are some unexpected surprises when these things are applied.

With these deeds in front of her, Melinsella was actually quite curious about what new things Roddy would come up with—Nafei’s mentioning this immediately gave her a legitimate step, so she coughed, raised her hand and said: " But I'm free today, so it doesn't matter if I accompany you to take a look."

"Yeah!"

With sly eyes, Naifei followed Melinsera briskly towards the downstairs. The middle level of the magic tower is the laboratory of the research department, which is not open to outsiders. But for Melinsera and Nefer, the guys around pretended not to see it - after all, one is the daughter of Lord "Guardian" and the other is a high-level mage who fought side by side with Rody. The status is right here, isn't it courting death to go up and drive people away...

The research on "anti-corrosion cans" is coming to an end. As a comparison group, the cans are placed in many rows, and the recent canned fruit smells pretty good. Naifei looked closely at it curiously, and asked: "I heard they said that this can prolong the storage time of food. Is it to save food when preparing for winter?"

"It should be eaten while at sea." Melinthra is well-informed, picked up the can and looked at it: "Sea ships usually do not dock for several months, and the meals of the sailors and crew are often poor. I remember some There is an allusion that sailors eat biscuits only in the dark at night, not during the day."

"Why? Is there anything special at night?"

Naifei really doesn't know, weird ****.

The corners of Melinsella's mouth curled up, and she said with a mischievous smile on her face: "Because those biscuits are as hard as rocks, and some of them have been stored for many years, and they are always full of maggots. I eat them at night to keep out of sight and out of mind." , Knock out the maggots as much as possible, no matter if there is any leftover, just stuff it into your mouth and eat it.”

"vomit…"

Naifei was so frightened that her face turned pale, she turned around and covered her mouth, and it took a long time to recover. Merlinsera laughed—she has lived for so long, how can she not see what kind of thoughts this little girl is hiding? But Naifei didn't hide evil intentions, she was also happy to tease the little girl.

Naifei, who was patted on her small chest, knew that she was no match, and stuck out her tongue: "Brother Luo Di is probably afraid that we will not have something to eat on the boat, so he studied this kind of thing."

"That guy Rody is very ambitious. With these cans, whether it's wilderness exploration or long-distance voyage, the survival rate of ordinary people will be greatly increased. He wants to explore deeper and wider sea areas."

Merlinsera sighed in her heart. To be honest, canned food also has no technical content in her eyes. But it is precisely because of the "low technical content" that it can be popularized and applied quickly, so that more people can experience the changes it brings. This is the case with paper and printing, and the same with canned food... Thinking of this, she seemed to understand why Rody did these researches.

The research that can benefit the entire city and even the country is truly excellent research.

The two curiously passed through some of the later research laboratories, from the smelting of various metals to the research on a kind of soil that can be used as an adhesive, and they seemed to be able to see the tip of the iceberg of Rodina's ambition.

And when it comes to the "Automotive" research department,

The prototype car with a wooden car shell immediately attracted the attention of the two of them.

The wooden car shell handcrafted by the best carpenters in Efta has a very amazing curved shape. Although the "prototype car" has a three-wheel structure, the body scheme was designed by Roddy to resemble a formula car - wind resistance Low, low cockpit, exposed tires.

Viewed from the side, the "prototype car" has a very typical F1 profile, and the big rear wing is a standard configuration for advanced racing cars. Several layers of tung oil have been applied to the wooden car shell, and the polished oil is shiny, and the bird's eye wood grain on it is extremely gorgeous.

Merlinsera and Nafi really didn't expect that Luo Di could make such an artistic thing, and the two of them looked around for a while, after all, this thing was unprecedented, and it was a product that transcended the times, which made people feel inexplicable sense of awe.

When he saw the leather-wrapped sports seats in the cockpit, Naifei's eyes lit up, he looked around, and asked the nervous researcher next to him, afraid that they would break things, "Is this for sitting? Can I go in?" Sit down?"

"You can sit, you can sit, just don't press those buttons, it will activate the magic circle and let the car run out..."

Nai Fei is not a brat, although the elf is weird, but she will not dare to cause trouble. After earnestly asking several times, she carefully lifted her skirt and sat on it, while Melinsera, who watched the car sinking downward, raised her brows—she had never seen a carriage with shock absorption and suspension, and stretched out her hand to press it. I pressed the car body and found that the car body parked on the flat ground could shake due to my own force.

"This design is interesting..."

She naturally knew that this kind of design meant that the car could filter out a lot of vibrations and bumps, but the magic fluctuations in it made her feel familiar. When she walked to the rear wheel and looked down, she suddenly exclaimed: "Cobalt gold? This Prodigal Luo Di, he used so much cobalt gold to make a carriage!"

The researcher next to him was sweating a little on his forehead. He really wanted to explain that this was an order from Roddy, but thinking about it, it was really annoying, so he simply kept silent.

Nai Fei was holding the steering handle to look left and right, and when she heard Melinsera's exclamation, she turned her head and said with a smile, "Shouldn't 'Prodigal' be what Sister Akasha said?"

"Come on, Akasha won't care how much Rody spent. This kind of thing should be the most distressing thing for your mother."

Xiao Nizi's rank is obviously far behind Melinsera's, so she immediately "hehe" fooled her, and then said: "Brother Luo Di must have a reason for doing this, I think... he probably wants to cheat others Yes, I did it on purpose."

"Tsk, you really know him well. This guy has a bad stomach, and those who want to take advantage of him basically end up being screwed."

Both of them were deeply touched by this topic, and immediately laughed together. Nai Fei touched the smooth car body, and joked: "Brother Luo Di has just been out for a week, and he heard that he made a mess of the 'Viper Cross' and the royal family. The emperor is so pitiful. I guess he still hasn't understood why. It’s a loss.”

"Charles II? It's enough for me to say that he is an idle nobleman. To conquer such a thing, you still have to have a brain to do it."

One is an old guy who has lived for thousands of years, and the other is a little loli who is only fifteen years old, but the two chatted on the same topic without any sense of disobedience. This weird scene made Camilla who was on the other side of the city I can't laugh or cry, but thinking about what they said, I feel that I seem to be willing to join in the discussion.

That guy seems to have a strange magical power.

*****

And in Karen's palace, Emperor Charles II, who was discussed by Merlinsera and Nefer, was indeed somewhat confused at this time.

What about attacking Efta?

What about capturing the outer cities for a month?

The menu for the celebration banquet has been finalized, why would someone suddenly come over and tell him that the army has been defeated?

Let’s forget about the collapse of the legion, but it turned out that it was not caused by the attack on Efta, but by the attack on the “Holy Temple”—Charles II wanted to look through the attachments of his previous orders for a while...to see if it was him one day Too much to drink so let Mirnor attack the "Rosaceous Cross"?

"Du Weiden, are you saying that all of this was caused by Mirno's command mistakes? I can't figure out what kind of mistakes can make his army change its marching route and rush to the city of the 'Holy Temple'?"

So far, he has not appeared in the palace, so Charles II's intelligence sources basically rely on sporadic feedback from the front line. The two elders were killed by Rody without knowing it.

To put it bluntly, this is a barrier that Mirnor has set up to achieve his own goals. When he is so powerful, others dare not expose this fact at all. However, after he was defeated like a mountain, Earl Du Weideng seized the opportunity to bring him down!

"Your Majesty, the specific information about the war is very clear. In fact... Mr. Mirno has concealed a lot of things."

It stands to reason that he shouldn't say this kind of exposing of people's shortcomings directly, at least he needs a confidant to come out and bring up the topic. But Earl Duveyden had just integrated into this inner circle, and he was alone among the nobles in the hall, and he had no accomplices who were willing to take the vanguard for him, so he had to personally take all the newspapers issued so far, and raised his hands to Charles II. in front of the world.

"What's this?"

Charles II reached out to take the newspaper, glanced around, and found that the nobles with different expressions on weekdays had all lowered their heads—this immediately gave him a premonition that something was not right.

The familiar feel different from the parchment made him squint his eyes. The straw paper he secretly bought has been used a lot these days. But the writing in his hand made him frown—he remembered that Milnor had shown himself the kind of newspaper written on parchment before, and the content on it was quite pleasing, but... where did it come from?
