Broad World

When he arrived in the basement, Henry soon began to electrolyze water. The electrical energy transferred from the energy pool is converted into direct current, which is connected to the bottom of the glass container. A large amount of water is decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, which enter the magic compressor through metal pipes, and all the liquid gas is packed into a sealed metal tank.

The hydrogen produced by the negative electrode and the oxygen produced by the positive electrode are separated and opened. Hydrogen is not only used as the filling gas for the airship, but also can cause a violent explosion when mixed with oxygen. Its power is probably no worse than some 9th-level spells. After several demonstrations, he asked the gray dwarf to take over the work here, and he returned to the laboratory to study the rare items obtained during this adventure.

The first is the shell of the dragon tortoise. This hard and smooth surface material is very suitable for resisting physical attacks and some elemental damage spells. Henry carefully pieced them together and connected them into a complete body armor. Then made a large three-tiered tower shield and a magic axe for the armor, and finally cast an activation spell, and this mighty looking guy stood up.

Henry tried to control the two-meter-tall guy, and the activated armor obeyed his intentions, walked a few steps at random, and then demonstrated the actions of lifting the shield and slashing heavily. He cast a "fireball technique" on the armor. After the violent explosion and fire, the entire armor had no scars except a little hot. It seems that in addition to the Adamantite Golem, there will be another automatic guard who does not need to rest for 24 hours.

The day after finishing this work was already dark, Henry ate a bit and went back to his room to sleep. The next few days. He was completely immersed in the ocean of magical knowledge. Kaigan and his people continued to send the specially processed steel skeleton to the mage tower. The gray dwarves and golems were also diligently digging deep pits outside.

When Henry thoroughly read the information exchanged from the Hubbel family, more than a month has passed. The huge pit outside the mage tower has already been dug, and the huge steel skeleton outside has been built according to the drawings. Tenoben commanded the gray dwarf loudly, linking the steel frames with rivets, and it seemed that they could be completed in two weeks at the current speed.

"Cortana, how much rubber and hydrogen are in stock right now? Is it enough for the big guy below." Henry looked at the busy crowd and asked Taring.

"Gas storage is sufficient, and the total area of ​​the rubber skin has exceeded three times the need. However, the gum brought back by the tree spirits is seriously insufficient. If you want more, it is best to send someone to collect it deep in the forest."

Henry smiled and stroked the scum on his chin. "Let the rubber maker use up all the raw materials and stop work. The gas will continue to be extracted until two warehouses are full and then let them stop. These things should be enough for me to build two or three airships this size." He finished. Pick up a piece of paper and start designing the power system of the airship, otherwise this big guy can only slowly float in the sky.

According to Henry's knowledge, most of the early airships on the earth use a structure such as a steam engine plus a propeller and a tail. However, he does not intend to invent the steam engine, because this kind of machinery is too harmful to the environment. It goes against the natural harmony of the druids. He intends to directly replace the whole machine with an electric motor. At that time, he only needs to install a miniature element pool on the airship, and charge it every time. Because there are hydroelectric generating units that supply power around the clock, there is no problem with this consumption.

With this in mind, Henry made four electric motors in two weeks. According to his design, two were placed on each side of the cabin of the airship. So even if two of them go wrong. The other two can also continue to work, safety and speed are very guaranteed.

Because it is the first ship, Henry pays special attention to safety. After all, it is possible to survive a shipwreck, but the air crash is basically dead as soon as an accident occurs. Falling from a height of several kilometers. Except for a few spellcasters, even legendary fighters will be smashed into flesh. Fire-resistant magic patterns are attached to the rubber and steel skeleton. The huge airbag is divided into dozens of individual air chambers. Finally, the oversized cabin is fixed below, and the main part of the entire airship is completed.

Henry personally installed the miniature element pool in the strongest room at the stern. The four electric motors were placed separately, and the gray dwarf installed the oversized propeller. The moment the circuit was switched on, the electric motor spun rapidly, and the strong wind from the propeller almost blew the surrounding iron frame.

Henry saw that there was nothing wrong with everything, so he ordered the golem to add the last fin, which was an important steering device for the airship. Soon a bottle of hydrogen was lifted out and rushed into the air bag with a rubber tube. As the buoyancy increased, the airship slowly began to fly slowly, and after the main airbag was inflated, the fixed ropes were already tightened.

"Lift some heavy objects up, and call out everyone in the tower. Let's test its carrying capacity and fly around the islands by the way." Henry told the gray dwarf leader while talking to Debra. Stepped into the hanging warehouse.

Tenoben nodded with excitement, turned and ran towards the mage tower. It didn't take long for all the people inside to walk out, even the tree spirits who didn't like the excitement. Following the plank, everyone walked inside. They talked about this huge object in whispers, sighing from time to time.

When Henry saw everyone coming up, he let the golem below loosen the fixed rope, and then continued to inflate the two auxiliary airbags. As the airship slowly left the ground, the people on board cheered. They lie down in front of the glass window, looking at the shrunken mage tower a little bit, and they are excited and quickly infected everyone.

When controlling the airship to rise to about two kilometers above the ground, Henry activated the power plant. The generator turned quickly with the propellers, controlled the tail to adjust the direction, and the behemoth flew in the direction of Bluevent City. The current auxiliary airbag is only filled with less than one-third of hydrogen, and if it is full, it is estimated that it can rise to an altitude of 6,000 to 8,000 meters.

"It's an amazing creation. This is the first time I have been flying in the sky of the main plane." Dai Lina walked to Henry's side and sighed.

Amy nodded in agreement. "It's really great. With this aircraft, we can avoid a lot of dangers in the future, and the speed is much faster than that of a ship."

"Yes, at the current speed, we only need a quarter of the time we traveled to and from the west coast, and the sky is much safer than the sea. In the future, I plan to use it to replace some of the ships and be responsible for transporting valuables and passengers. After finishing talking, Henry explained the airship promotion plan in detail.

Debra looked at him in surprise and asked, "You mean two more ships will be built soon? My God! This is really a crazy move."

Henry accepted the compliment with a smile. "My plan is to use two ships for trade to and from the West Coast and transport passengers. I believe those wealthy merchants and nobles will love this fast and safe travel method."

The speed of the airship was very fast, reaching the sky above Bluewent in about ten minutes. Countless citizens looked up at the behemoth in the sky, and even Mayor Hawke was alarmed. He pointed to the sky and asked the guard loudly: "Who can tell me what's going on! Where did the monsters in the sky come from?"

The guard awkwardly pointed to a small mark under the airship and replied: "My lord, it flew from the direction of the mage tower, and there is a mark on the side, which should be the family crest of the earl."

Hawke squinted his eyes and saw a shield-shaped pattern on the side as expected. But because it is too far away, it is really hard to see what is being painted. "Now send someone to the Mage Tower and Lord's Mansion to ask what's going on, and let the city guards step up guard just in case."

Just when Hawke was very nervous, the lord's mansion also exploded. Shikoudi and Lily grew up and looked up at the airship. Although they had heard Henry say that they wanted to build a flying machine, they didn't expect to be so big. The butler who had always been polite behind him also lost his attitude. He didn't even wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

"Damn it! I should have asked him to take me up and fly around." Shikoudi first returned to his senses and complained.

"Since it's been built, are you afraid that you won't have to sit down in the future? I believe Henry will agree even if you want to live on it." Lily smiled and rubbed her sour eyes.

The butler bowed deeply to the two ladies. "If you want to go up, please be sure to bring me~www.ltnovel.com~ I want to experience the feeling of flying in the sky once in my lifetime."

Shi Kodi smiled happily, covering her mouth, she didn't expect this old man to have such a cute side. "Of course, the earl will definitely not let a loyal butler down. We will go and enjoy the air travel tomorrow."

Henry stood in the cockpit of the airship and looked down, and soon found the soldiers coming back from the city. "It's really bad, I seem to have forgotten to inform Hawke before taking off. Look at the guards below, they seem to have been moving in the direction of flight."

His words made the three ladies amused. Debra pointed to the slightly flustered citizens and said: "Look at their expressions, 80% of them regard this huge flying machine as some kind of monster. You'd better leave here quickly. Otherwise, maybe a giant crossbow will be fired for a while."

These words made Henry a cold sweat instantly. He hurriedly manipulated the tail wing to change direction, and soon left the sky over Bluewent and began flying around the islands. Hawke heaved a sigh of relief after watching the airship in the sky leave. This huge unidentified object brought a lot of pressure to the city. He didn't dare to act rashly until the person who inquired about the news returned. (To be continued.
