  Chapter 919 Your Floating City is very good, now it’s mine

   Right on the ground, when the power of the floating city first showed its strength.

  Dragon Island, Mahdi... that is, the immovable strong city, Ian is also thinking.

   "The empire created a floating city."

He said to Long Dao that the two dragon kings who were communicating with the dragon of the abyss must have heard his words: "This kind of non-magnetic levitation anti-gravity technology, except for Yunjing City, which I have not seen before, only the dragon The island has it... This is somewhat similar to the technology of the real dragon lifting its body to fly at super high speed."

  【This is not the technology of a real dragon】

Jifeng Dragon King said: [The fire seed and alien star **** obtained by the capital of knowledge come from two different civilizations, one of which comes from the people of the storm in the gaseous planet. The so-called cloud scene is actually their response to the gravity of the giant star. and the 'defense line' of the super giant storm]

[You also know that the storms of gaseous giants are enough to swallow several terras, so they are not confrontation, but utilization—they use the ether field to reduce the relationship between their living area and various forces. In simple terms, they will The city is temporarily independent of 'gravity']

   This is actually easy to understand.

   It is well known that planets rotate, and the speed is quite fast. And the planet will also revolve around the star, and the speed is not slow.

  The reason why human beings are not 'thrown' out is precisely because human beings act together with these behemoths, but in the same way, human beings are also constrained by the 'force' on these giants.

  If one wants to break away from the planet’s gravitational force and become a satellite, the first cosmic speed is needed. Similarly, if one wants to break away from the planet and the local solar system, it needs the higher second and third cosmic speeds.

   Only by reaching this speed, can one get rid of all influences and gain 'freedom', the right to act freely.

   This is difficult. Especially the civilizations in the gas giants, their original material structure is not strong, and the gravitational force and strong wind they have to fight against are even more terrifying. They can't be as down-to-earth as humans, launching rockets and aircraft to go to the starry sky.

  So, with the unique etheric technology of the Tara universe, they developed another completely new method.

   That is, cut and conform.

   Reduce the force exerted on these giants of the planets and stars. Obey the ecology of the planet and exert the power on their cities.

  —As long as the gravitational influence on the city is isolated, the city can be stably suspended in the stable zone of the gas giant instead of sinking deeper into the planet.

  —As long as they obey the impact of the atmosphere, no matter how terrifying the hurricane is, it can only push their cities around, so as not to destroy the interior.

And when they want to fly to the starry sky, they don't burn flames to the starry sky, but 'stay in place', the stars will naturally leave them, and then directly come to a specific place in a simple and complicated way. Space, then again connects with everything, fixes itself.

  Different from humans increasing rocket output and building walls to resist, this is a completely alien logic.

  The reason why the floating city can float is because it isolates the influence of the planet's gravity on it, and only needs a simple driving force to make it float.

   Moreover, the speed of the floating city can also be very fast - as long as it is slightly isolated from the pull of the planet on itself, then it can move on a fixed orbit at the speed of the planet's rotation.

   "So outrageous?"

  Ian was shocked: "Doesn't this mean that as long as it is on the same rotation orbit, the floating city can strike at any time?"

  【It’s not that simple. To grasp the space-time calculation of absolute coordinates and relative coordinates, the level of the people of Terra is far from enough. Even the thing you built in the virtual world cannot calculate the situation in this cradle】

The Extreme Wind Dragon King said slowly: [Even the people of the storm who developed this technology can't completely get rid of the connection with everything - if they want to develop it, it is equivalent to skipping all the front-end technologies and lighting up the "curvature engine" up]

[This is not impossible, but even the curvature engine has an anchor point in real time and space, and will not let itself drift in the universe... The same is true for the floating city. As long as it does not want to be thrown away by the planetary movement, it can only simply Resist gravity, and then use power to fly slowly]

   "Dragon can do it, right?"

  Ian originally wanted to say 'this is already very powerful'. After all, no matter how slow the floating city moves, it is still a moving fortress.

  But soon, he was keenly aware of the meaning behind the Dragon King: "The movement of the dragon group is the curvature navigation, and the Blazing Star Dragon is the coordinates of the dragon group... He is the real dragon who leads and calculates these coordinates!"

【Yes】

Jifeng Dragon King looked at Ian, and his tone was meaningful: [And you, have obtained the essence of blazing light... When you reach the fifth energy level, you will have the ability to calculate the relative absolute coordinates of space-time in the universe... This is the curvature The beginning of the engine]

  【At that time, with the ether core you already have...Ian, you may become the first human being on this land to obtain the power of the 'Second Generation Tutor True Dragon'! 】

  Ian should be happy, but now, he is deep in thought.

  He thought of the dragon of light that he was driving on the way to the star-extinguishing road... he was driving the dragon, detonating the stars to move forward, and melting into the light.

   This speed is indeed not slow, but compared to the superluminal curvature navigation, why don't I use it?

  Theoretically speaking, I, who is on the way of dying stars, also has the essence of blazing light, and can develop a curvature engine...I definitely discovered something, so I didn't use this technology.

   "Will it be discovered eventually? But the speed of light action will also be discovered... Or in other words, what is the danger of the curvature engine in the current time and space in the cradle?"

  Ian can't know the result, unless he can develop the curvature engine now and predict the result.

  But he understood the essence of Floating Void City and Yunjing.

   It was at this moment.

  Ian, or in other words, 'Mahdi' changed his expression.

  Because he sensed—in the Void Realm, there is a ray of information, or, the Void Realm Fetion, flying towards him!

  It was a letter.

  A letter from the powerhouse of the fifth energy level, Lord of the Thousand Towers, Kerizen Quxo.

at the same time.

  Isengard, who was meditating in the void, also received this letter.

   "Invite me to the Quest Spire in the City of Knowledge?"

  The blond-haired and blue-eyed noble boy slowly opened his eyes in the secret room, his expression was a little confused: "I'm indeed going there for an exchange and investigation, but why did you invite me... Wait?"

  He suddenly thought of his own blood, and thought of another young strongman he had met in the Institute of Alien Species that was related to the "Beast of Thousand Stars"...the capital of learning, the chief of Qingyue Spire, and Elger the Thinker.

  The other party seems to have a half body constructed from the offspring of the thousand-star beast.

  If it is said that the capital of knowledge invited him for this purpose... specially invited him to seek the steeple...

   So, should he go?

  Isengard didn't think much about it, he contacted Ian directly!

   Joke, do you still need to think for yourself? If your friend is a prophet, of course you just wait for the prophecy!

【possible】

   Regarding the fact that Isengard was also invited, Ian, who also received the letter from Krezen, had another idea: [I think that the decision made by the Lord of the Spire must have been acquiesced by the empire]

  【You may not know Yisen, but I just saw the final product of the cooperation between the Capital of Knowledge and the Empire... a strategic floating fortress】

  【The recent cooperation between the Empire and the Capital of Knowledge is far beyond our imagination. It can even be said that they have even exchanged the technology of the Imperial Capital and the Heavenly Capital. Who knows if they have exchanged the technology related to the "Beast of Thousand Stars"? If there is really...then I think, we can really have a good exchange]

  【And don’t worry, the capital of learning has also invited me, to be precise, it has invited my ‘senior brother’ Mahdi. They can't be so stupid, thinking that neither Mahdi nor you will ask me, and set off there without asking the prophet... And I really didn't perceive your danger]

   "I can probably guess what the other party is thinking."

Isengard has been tempered, and now he is becoming more and more mature. When he contacted Ian, he had already thought of many possibilities: "The matter of my blood fusion has not been exposed yet. They invited me, just by the way when they invited you." Make up the number... and the capital of learning invited Mahdi, obviously for the various technologies you obtained from the Xenomorph Research Institute."

"Ian, your performance in Nanling some time ago was too amazing. The capital of knowledge must feel that you have obtained quite a lot of pre-epoch civilization technology. They have always been keen to recycle these technologies. I think that if necessary, some of them can be released. Give it to them, sell it for a good price, or exchange some technology you need."

   "Moreover, the Church of Spiritual Equipment also has a cathedral in the City of Knowledge—it's not a big deal to sell two copies of one piece of information, as long as we add a little bit of detail, there will be no problem."

  【You have become bad】

   "Learned from you."

Of course, Ian didn't think it was a big deal if Isengard and himself failed, he just warned: [There is no need to earn two copies, the main reason is that this invitation was sent by the Lord of Thousand Towers... I guess The other party doesn't just want to exchange some technology with me. This intention is enough for a fourth-level powerhouse. I suspect...he may have seen something more]

   "Your...inheritance?"

Even though he has a direct connection with Ian in the virtual world, Isengard is still a little afraid to say the words of the gift of the star god. To be honest, he really wishes he hadn't heard Ian tell the truth: "If He really saw it, so why didn't he just grab it?"

   "Oh, you are on Dragon Island..." Isengard was a little stunned.

  【Yes, I am in Dragon Island】

Ian said softly: [Actually, I have been regarded as a 'dragon' - I will drive the body of a dark gold dragon to the capital of knowledge, even if the Lord of a Thousand Towers is meaningless to me, because I can definitely hold on Go to the Dragon King]

  【It's you, Ethan, are you really planning to go? 】

   "I originally wanted to go to the Capital of Knowledge for the cooperation of the workshop. Being able to meet the Lord of the Thousand Towers is beneficial to my cooperation and has no harm."

  Isengard shrugged. After all, he is also the head of the southern region of the home workshop. His cooperation with Ian has rapidly increased his prestige, but he still lacks some prestige and heritage.

   But to be able to meet with the Lord of the Thousand Towers, Kerizin, even if it is just a photo, many manufacturers who are still hesitant will definitely agree without hesitation.

"They wouldn't kidnap an imperial nobleman to threaten an exile who was expelled by the empire, would they?" Isengard joked, "I even think that the other party just wants to see us—the request of the Lord of the Spire." Curiosity is famous all over the world, with such a strange existence like you, and my bloodline that may be seen through, which one doesn't make him feel itchy?"

   "What I'm afraid of is, will he see through your Mahdi vest and your Ian real body?"

  【Don’t talk about these】

   Ian, the King of Unmasked Vests, ended this topic, and he asked directly: [When are you going to go there? I, Mahdi, have to wait until the Dragon of the Abyss audit is completed, and have you mastered your fusion blood? 】

"Soon."

  Raising his hand, Isengard looked at his palm.

   In the palm of the hand, there is a round of pitch-black ring flowing like blood, and a round of golden sun's light burns quietly within the range of the black ring.

  The blond nobleman whispered: "I have been able to completely control this power... this 'blood inheritance'."

Ian is not sure whether Isengarde really controls his blood power, which requires him to go and do a detailed inspection in person, just like Yadbert claims that he is in good condition, actually check Afterwards, the soul was exhausted and was forced to sleep by Ian for three days and three nights.

  Many diseases are not something that can be judged by oneself, and professionals still need professional equipment.

   As for now, he has no time yet.

  Because of the identity of 'Ian', he was still in the western plains, participating in a strategic meeting of the high-ranking nobles of the empire.

  In the western plains, the floating city slowly landed.

   This time the test was quite satisfactory. After more than a dozen tests in Floating Void City, it was confirmed that there were no problems with all the data.

  Even if there is a little flaw, it can be solved at any time in front of a professional maintenance team.

  The nobles from all over the empire, including Ian and Earl Barton, boarded the floating city. Under the introduction of the core engineers of the empire, they learned about the structure and general functions of the floating city, as well as many technical details.

"Look, this is one of the eight ether furnaces in the floating city, which is in line with the energy supply of the southeast block. This ether core has made some progress in technology. Although it is still not completely comparable to the perfect ether core of the previous era, the loss The rate is only 0.03%, and the battery life is as high as 168 hours. The only disadvantage is that once it is overloaded, it cannot be recovered. It can only use the "loading and unloading" function here to throw down the entire southwest block together with the molten etheric core, and use it as the ultimate ammunition. .”

"And here is the spiritual wind wave cannon. It uses ultra-high concentration of wind-type source matter, compresses the mass, and launches it at super high speed to deal a devastating blow to the enemy's fortress. The wave cannon fired just now is not full power, but It is a 35% charged bombardment, and the aftermath caused by a 100% full-power bombardment may even affect the floating city itself, so it is difficult to conduct experiments, and the technology will be improved in the future."

"Look, here is the ganaku of the space armor. As a strategic air suppression fortress, more than 400 space armor can be placed in the floating city, which is the total number of space armor in a war zone of the empire. The space armor The disadvantage of the installation is that the fuel consumption is extremely fast, and a strong fortress is required as a front-line supply point, and it is quite fragile when it is not activated, and the floating city also has the disadvantage of worrying about the defense when it is approached by small targets. The two can make up for each other. The former can get Mobile propulsion, continuous maintenance of refueling air supply stations, which can be protected by the strongest conventional combat forces of the Empire."

   "The air fleet is under construction. By then, the Empire will create a Terra Air Force with the floating city as the core skeleton and the air fleet as flesh and blood."

  The introducers were eloquent, and they were obviously very confident and proud of their creations—they also had the right to be proud, because once a creation like the floating city appeared, it would be an overwhelming advantage over the enemy troops.

   Among other things, the demon army wants to physically destroy the floating city, is that possible? Even the cursed soil can't erode the altitude of a few kilometers. The virtual world and the reality correspond to each other. There are several creatures in the sky of several kilometers, and it will be troublesome for the fog to rise up.

   And want to let the lesser monsters, beast monsters and fusion monsters fly up to attack the floating city... Uh, are you sure they are not targets?

With the defensive power of the floating city, it is enough to ignore all attacks below the fourth energy level. Even if the local legions attack together, there is no professional air defense means, just a few anti-aircraft guns and missile bombardment. floating city.

   You know, even if it is simplified and reduced, it is also the technology of the planetary shield!

   Stepping on this steel fortress and listening to the explanations of the technicians, the great nobles of the empire are simply relaxed and happy.

   Of course, some people are worried.

"excuse me."

  The great nobleman of the northern region, Earl Roald, asked in a deep voice: "The Floating Void City is indeed an unprecedented great creation. It can even be said that the glory of our empire will begin here—but!"

   "Shouldn't this be kept secret? Why did you tell us in such detail?"

Earl Roald is indeed a great nobleman, but his family line has gradually weakened four hundred years ago. Now this earl only has the third level, and he is not a third level with meritorious background like Ian. class.

  It is normal for him to express this suspicion, because he sincerely feels that he is not worthy of knowing such a secret—won’t he be silenced or targeted?

   "My lord, a new era of war is coming."

In this regard, the introduction staff had already anticipated all the possibilities, and they said with a smile: "One floating city and one floating fortress are definitely not enough—it can even be said that the empire needs more floating fortresses to guard the four directions... and everyone is The nobles of the empire are all the pillars of the empire in the true sense. Your territory is either guarding a frontier, or it is located in the heart of the empire. Without a floating town, how can you welcome the new era?"

"It may not be necessary for our current 'City of Far Frontier' to be as large and complete, nor even need to have the ability to move and strategically strike—but in your territory, there must be a real city overlooking the whole territory. Floating fortress."

   "This is our honor and our duty. My lord, the empire will send relevant professionals to your territory to assist you in building the floating city."

   "This is the strategic task of the future."

  Hearing this, the originally noisy group of imperial aristocrats fell silent for an instant.

  Emperor will send professionals to build... floating city?

   At the core of your territory?

At this moment, all the big nobles thought of many possibilities—for example, the emperor’s capital is definitely not so kind, and there must be a conspiracy behind this floating city... For example, the emperor wants to use the floating city to monitor, suppress himself, and confiscate the place Aristocratic power... For example, the old keeper of the land is really crazy. He doesn't really think that if this technology is handed over, the imperial nobles will not dare to reform it, right?

  Although there was a frenzy in his heart, for a while, the team of imperial nobles was indeed overwhelmed by the order of the land defenders.

  As for Ian, who looked a little absent-minded?

  He just passed the gift of the Star God and carved the entire Floating Void City!

  Your Floating City is very good, but it’s all mine now.jpg

  Now, Ian no longer needs the empire to send professionals to assist in the construction. He is more professional than most professionals.

  So, that is at this time.

  Ian vaguely sensed that the empire requires nobles from all over the world, or in other words, invites them who have been recognized by the imperial capital and invited to come to the western region to appreciate the power of the floating city, the real purpose of building the floating city in the future.

   "The shield system of the floating city... can resonate with each other."

Looking ahead with empty eyes, Ian's consciousness has sunk into the depths of the Star God's Ritual, he read the whole picture of the structure of the floating city, and quickly disassembled and digested it: "With the core shield of the imperial capital as the center, and the major floating cities The shield system is a relay point..."

   "The entire empire territory will be perfectly covered by the planetary shield of the imperial capital!"
