Master of Thermodynamics

After spinning around the hot air balloon, Alex suddenly raised his head to look at Renault, his eyes gleaming and he asked:

"Your Excellency Renault, say this... er... Can the ‘hot air balloon’ be used for high-altitude reconnaissance?"

Renault said with a smile:

"Yes, Your Excellency, only the hot air balloon is equipped. Any movement of the enemy can't be hidden from your eyes. Oh, yes, we also specially equipped the hot air balloon with a ‘telescope’..."

Having said that, he looked at Gulum, "Gollum, go get a telescope for Lord Alex..."

After the telescope was retrieved, Renault began to teach Alex how to use it.

Under the pointing of his hands, Alex curiously raised his binoculars and aimed it at a bush forest more than 100 meters away. Looking through the eyepiece, the bush forest seemed to be pulled in 10 meters away.

Alex was taken aback. He hurriedly put down his binoculars and looked at the bushes directly with his naked eyes. Only then did he find that the position of the bushes had not changed. The vision he saw just now was actually just the function of the binoculars.

Renault just watched it all with a smile, letting Alex look around like a turtle holding his binoculars.

After fiddling with the telescope for a while with excitement, Alex said in admiration:

"Your Excellency Renault, the telescope of your Chamber of Commerce is really amazing. I can be sure that it plays a very important role in the military. With hot air balloons and telescopes, it will be easy to detect the movements of the black orc army."

After a pause, he said again:

"But I think they also have shortcomings, that is, they can only be used during the day. After the earth loses the blessing of the sun, flying with a hot air balloon will become a dangerous thing..."

"In addition, I don't think the telescope can penetrate the darkness..."

Not only was Renault not annoyed when he heard that Alex deliberately provoked, but the smile on his face became more obvious.

The reason is very simple. This is something that people who intend to buy will only take action.

It is because they want to buy, they will deliberately use this method to lower the price. Those who do not plan to buy will often just praise it insincerely, and then cling to their wallets.

This is also one of the important purposes of Renault's use of hot air balloons for publicity: to promote hot air balloons.

Letting a hot air balloon fly in the sky is more effective than trying to explain 10,000 sentences. Anyone with a slight eye can think of the use of hot air balloons in the military. Alex is the commander of the knights of the duke. , It is impossible not to think of this.

In addition, if this deal can be concluded, it will bring another benefit.

The Haichao Chamber of Commerce will directly connect with the Knights, and subsequent weapons and armor transactions will become a matter of course. As long as you seize the opportunity to show your products to Alex, this large order will never escape him. Palm heart.

This is the "three birds with one stone" plan carefully planned by Renault!

However, Alex's probing skill was deeper than Renault had imagined. He took a step closer and said in a low voice:

"Your Excellency Renault, I think you should have also heard of the black orcs' "magic eyes". If hot air balloons appear on the battlefield, they are likely to become targets of the magic eyes."

"The material of the hot air balloon is only a kind of tarpaulin that is not strong. Under the claws of those big birds, they probably won't survive for long. As for the soldiers in the hot air balloon..."

Renault raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but give Alex a big thumbs up in his heart.

This guy did say the point. This is the most deadly shortcoming of hot air balloons. This is why Renault is willing to include hot air balloons on the trading list.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be good to keep this kind of significant military weapon? Why sell to irrelevant people? Moreover, after the hot air balloon spreads out, this technology may still fall into the hands of the black orcs.

Renault glanced at the hot air balloon and said a piece of news that moved Alex.

"Your Excellency, let me tell you, as an extraordinary wind type, I have personally killed a magic eye!"

Alex was shocked, turned his head and looked at Renault seriously, his eyes were full of surprise, he asked solemnly:

"Your Excellency Renault, I am very curious about the magic eye, do you have any obvious appearance features?"

This sentence is just a test, obviously Alex has some doubts about Renault's words.

Renault spit out two words faintly:

"dwarf!"

Alex immediately believed Renault's words, because according to some secret information he received, the figure of Demon Eye was very thin, and many people suspected that Demon Eye was a dwarf, but they were not sure.

But Renault directly pointed it out. If Renault hadn't killed Demon Eye, he would never know this.

Alex sighed and said solemnly:

"Your Excellency Renault, you are really an extraordinary person!"

"As far as I know, when the Allied Forces of the Four Nations joined forces against the Black Orcs, the Allied Forces Command once mobilized 4 Extraordinary Winds and planned several operations against the Demon Eye, but none of them succeeded..."

Renault smiled and shook his head, and said:

"You are too acclaimed, and I only seized this opportunity by chance. However, it is precisely because I killed Demon Eye that I know that Demon Eye also has obvious shortcomings."

"You must know that the Demon Eye, as a type of troops purely used for detection, will never get close to any enemy easily. This is the main reason why it is difficult for humans to kill the Demon Eye.

At this time Renault's voice became high-pitched.

"Therefore, I think that if the magic eye is willing to approach the hot air balloon, this will instead give us a chance to deal with the magic eye!"

"We can ambush several elite crossbowmen on the gondola. If the eye is close, we will suddenly shoot the eye's mount. As long as a crossbow arrow hits the opponent, the eye will surely fall alive!"

"From this perspective, we can use a hot air balloon to lure the magic eye to the bait..."

This guy lied!

Renault knew better than anyone that the Demon Eye would be carrying a jetpack. Even if the mount fell to death, the Demon Eye would not die. At most, it would only be injured, but he concealed this important news.

This guy is a big liar with a clever tongue!

In order to sell hot air balloons, Renault did everything they could to conceal key information, but also made the shortcomings of hot air balloons a huge advantage!

If this is not a clever tongue, what is a clever tongue?

Renault's words are not over yet.

"Your Excellency Alex, I am a businessman and I am used to thinking about issues from the perspective of cost. In my opinion, even if the loss ratio of hot air balloons to magic eyes is as high as 5:1, that means losing 5 hot air balloons and killing One demon eye, we also earned it."

"Because, as long as there are enough Kinnars and hot air balloons, crossbowmen are not difficult to train, but the magic eye is different. A magic eye has to undergo countless training from birth to growth, the black orc It will take at least ten years to develop a magic eye..."

Alex nodded frequently, his expression getting more excited.

He had been fooled by Renault to convince him, he even felt a little ashamed, that his eyes were too short to fully realize the important role of hot air balloons.

Alex also secretly decided that in a few days he must speak up in front of the Duke of Byron and persuade the Duke to buy a batch of hot air balloons.

This poor fellow had already planned to buy without even asking the price.

This is Renault's words.

He first talked about how he killed Demon Eye and molded himself as the authority to deal with Demon Eye. Once Alex accepted this setting, then he would subconsciously believe in everything Renault would say next.

After all, whether it is a foreigner or a human being on earth, they have the habit of believing in authority, don't they?

If Alex really followed Renault's method and used a hot air balloon to deal with the magic eye, there would be many innocent soldiers thrown into meat sauce.

But Renault didn't care at all, anyway, the children of other people's families could not die.
