Starting from Zero

After giving me the spell instructions for extracting energy, little Vermilion Bird started her explanation again. "The material you are seeing now is black, so you can all see it clearly, right?"

Everyone is nodded.

Vermilion Bird continued: "Okay. Now I dragged a flame spell, the magic ball floats here, as long as I let go of control, they will be disintegrated and absorbed." She let go. With the control of spell, the dots of red highlights began to drift towards the material below. Vermilion Bird said: "Now it is absorbing energy, but this guy is very large, this little Fireball is not enough to make it completely invisible, so I now start to continue to replenish energy in." With Vermilion Bird With constant output, Fireball has not disappeared even though it has been continuously absorbed.

That piece of material was constantly absorbing energy, and it gradually became invisible. When it became completely invisible, Little Vermilion Bird crushed the Fireball. "Well, now what you see is the material that has entered an invisible state. It is now on the ground, and there is soil under it. Do you see the ground through it?"

< p>Everyone shook the head together at this time. This thing is actually not completely invisible now, its color has become a kind of faint white, it seems that there is some blue mixed in it, how do I think it looks like the color of the sky. I finally understood that this thing is not transparent but has become the color of the sky. The Ruins of Isengard is the seaside. There is no contrast near us. When it is connected to the sky and the sea in the background, it is completely invisible. In fact, it is not transparent. Even if there is a contrast, it is easy to be discover.

Woma suddenly asked Vermilion Bird: "What's the name of this material?"

"Empress Nuwa didn't name this thing at the time, they were just scraps."

Woma immediately said: "Shall we name it?"

"Of course." Vermilion Bird said politely: "It was given to you anyway, you love I don’t know how to call it."

Woma looked towards me: "President. The attribute of this material is simply too suitable for Isinger’s future flight plan. We simply call it Sky Is the stone okay?"

"The name doesn’t matter, the key is the purpose. What do you mean by suitable flying technology?"

Woma immediately explained excitedly: The grid can be lifted into the air, and this material can be easily integrated with the sky. If there is a city of the same color as the sky flying across the sky, who can tell? If there is a way to extract energy, we can even use it at night The energy drained and turned it into black. In the future, unless Isengard lands, no one can find it."

"Yes, this attribute is really good." An invisible moving castle , I think it must be interesting.

Little Vermilion Bird said: "The sky stone you named is not only invisible in the sky, it is also a very good anti-magic barrier. I have just explained to you that it absorbs magic power. The way, as long as the magic is beyond 20 meters or under continuous control, it will not be affected. Therefore, your defense operations also need some adjustments. First of all, the speed of the use of magic by the wizards must be slowed down."

"Didn't it affect our battle strength?" a mage asked.

Little Vermilion Bird shook his head: "This will indeed affect your battle strength, but you have to take into account that the enemy is worse than you. It is formidable power to slow down the release speed of the spell, which requires you to control yourself. Spell, in any case, wait for it to leave the range of 20 meters and then release the control to let it fly, otherwise all the spells hit will be sucked back. Your spell control distance should be more than 20 meters, after all, this distance is not very Long. I know most people are accustomed to releasing the control after the spell flies 5 meters, but if you want to use the spell in the city built in the city of the sky, you must learn to control the release distance of the spell. Know that your enemies are more difficult than you , You only need to throw the spell 20 meters away and it’s okay. Unless they can always control the spell and hit the target, don’t expect the spell to be effective. In fact, except for the existence of our Spiritual God level, ordinary wizards are impossible. Control the spell to a distance of 100 meters away. In other words, almost no one has the ability to put spell on your city wall. Besides, as long as you pay attention to avoidance, there will be no problem. Even if the spell is launched on the city wall, once When it touches the stone of the sky, it will be sucked dry immediately like water meets a sponge, and it will not cause any damage at all."

A warrior player asked: "How hard is this thing? Don't worry. Magic is a good thing, what about physical defense?"

"I can only say that it is harder than ordinary substances, but I have not tested how strong it is."

A German woman The player shouted: "Just experiment with a few pieces."

Vermilion Bird hurriedly said: "Anyway, the thing is for you. I don't care how you want to use it, but I will tell you clearly in advance. There are so many things, they are not enough to build your city. They can only be mixed with other materials. If you consume too much in other areas, I can’t add it to you."

" We still don't want to experiment." Another player said distressedly.

Vermilion Bird said: "Actually, it is not impossible to experiment, but you must be careful not to damage it too severely. This material has the ability to self-repair. If it is cracked or missing a piece, just If energy flows in, it will automatically repair the damage, but the premise is that the damaged part does not exceed 75% of the total volume."

"Then don't worry." I smiled and said, "We are not so. Violence."

Experimenting the strength of a material is divided into many parts. The first is to test the ability to resist hits. For comparison, we made some solid steel blanks, the shape is exactly the same as that of the sky stone, so it is more convenient for comparison.

First, we set up both the sky stone and the steel blank, and then the magic puppet used a heavy hammer to smash it. The power of the magic puppet is great, and the formidable power after using the large Warhammer is even more incredible. First knocked on the steel embryo, the magic puppet raised the sledgehammer and turned it sideways like a hammer throw, and hit the steel embryo.

There was a loud noise, and our ears were all ringing in our ears for a long time. The knocking situation was a bit unexpected. Originally, we thought it would just sag a little bit, but we didn't know that the magic puppet actually broke the hammer. The huge Warhammer head was embedded in the steel embryo, but only a bare stick was left in the hand of the magic puppet.

Erlang Shen touched the hammer in the steel embryo and said: "Purple Moon! Is your magic doll much stronger than mine?"

I smiled bitterly Said: "They have lost strength!"

Because the hammer was damaged, we had to replace it with an identical hammer for the second time. Ordered the magic puppet to knock the sky stone with the same power, and then everyone blocked their ears and waited for the loud noise to occur. The magic puppet was still rotating in the same posture and hit the surface of the sky stone with a hammer.

bang! "Aiya!"

I don’t know if the strength of the magic puppet is too great or the quality of our hammer is defective. Anyway, the hammer head was knocked out again this time . The metal handle in the hand of the magic puppet has been bent into the shape of the letter Z, while the sky stone is intact, but we found a strange change. The sky stone we used for the experiment was drained of energy, and it is now black, but it turned into the color of the sky near the location where it was hit. The sky stone can only change color when it absorbs energy. Could it even absorb the mechanical energy when it hits?

I was thinking, and suddenly a player said: "It's strange, where is the hammer head?"

When he said that, everyone started looking for the hammer head, but everyone found out at the same time. Two hapless guys. The first guy, the unlucky person, was seven or eight meters behind us. He fell to the ground and rolled, and all of his left leg below the knee joint was gone. Another person is lying on all fours up to the sky, more than 40 meters behind us, and two people are still pressed under him.

Just now, the magic puppet broke the hammer handle when hitting the sky stone. Because the hardness of the sky stone was quite exaggerated, the hammer head did not sink in like the steel embryo just hit, but rebounded. The bounced hammer first broke the leg of the first guy, then hit the ground and bounced and hit the belly of the next guy. That guy was knocked out and knocked down two people by the way.

I saw those people feel miserable and then touched the sky stone. "Sure enough! I don't know if it will have the same effect after freezing!" Generally speaking, many hard objects become quite fragile after freezing, such as steel. Once the temperature is low to a certain level, they will become glass. Just as fragile.

With the help of the ice queen from my summon, we cooled the sky stone and a new steel blank to a very low temperature, because we can’t directly use the freezing technique on the sky stone. There was a delay. When the cooling was completed, we tried the blow experiment again, and the steel was brittle like glass at this temperature. The magic puppet hit a hammer and knocked out a large piece of the steel embryo, but the sky stone still didn't respond.

Low temperature is invalid. We experimented with high temperature again, but the experiment failed to go on. When the temperature exceeds 120 degrees, the Sky Stone no longer heats up, but directly converts the temperature into energy and absorbs it. Continued heating is equivalent to supplementing the Sky Stone with no meaning at all.

In the next wear resistance test, we use large and large grinders, but the wear effect is very poor. After using a whole grinding stone, we only left a one-foot-deep pit on the surface of the sky stone. Under normal circumstances, a grinding stone should be able to make a two-meter-deep hole in the steel plate, but now it is actually Only a foot deep. Although this experiment proved that the Sky Stone is not indestructible, at least it can be polished and cut, but its hardness is no longer in question.

Originally, we also planned to do traction experiments and torsion experiments. Considering the size of the sky stone, we have to forget it. We don’t have such a big machine. All experiments show that the Sky Stone has extraordinary attributes and is fully capable of building cities.

After examining the hardness, we began to calculate how the materials are used. Vermilion Bird has clearly stated that the materials are not enough. Of course, we are impossible to directly start building cities. The first task is to count and measure the actual material use. So that we can make reasonable arrangements.

As the little Vermilion Bird said, the material is not enough. In order to make reasonable use of it, I had to plan again where to use Sky Stone and where to use substitutes. First of all, the sky stone must be used on the outermost layer of the city. After this amount is deducted, the remaining part will be calculated.

In the afternoon, we roughly planned out the usage plan, and Erlang Shen, who was waiting impatiently, began to direct the doll to work. The first thing we need to build is the bottom armor layer of the city. At the beginning of the design, it was planned that the city would use a modular design. Of course, the armor would use a detachable structure in accordance with the modular standard. According to the design plan, the bottom of the city is a 32-kilometer square, which will be protected by 1024 armor plates.

Each armor plate is actually a cube with a length of 1,000 meters, a width of 1,000 meters, and a thickness of 100 meters. The thickness of the bottom 30 meters of this cube is completely composed of sky stones. They play magical resistance and invisibility effects on the outside. The smooth sky stones will not stick to anything, even if they take off from the ground. A lot of mud is stuck on it and loses its invisible effect. A multicolored Divine Stone about 70 meters thick will be placed on the Sky Stone. Although the colorful Divine Stone is not as good as the Sky Stone in terms of structural strength and magic resistance, this thing is open for supply, so don't worry about the quantity!

Actually, I originally wanted to place steel plates on the armor layer. Although it is not as good as the Sky Stone, it is at least stronger than the colorful Divine Stone. But in the end considering the weight issue, we gave up this idea. The density of the Sky Stone is very small. I feel that it is almost the same as the density of Styrofoam. Throw it into the water and it will not sink. Even the wind above Level 6 can blow it up. The density of the colorful Divine Stone is also less than that of sea water, and it can float like wood in the water. The density of these two materials is not large, which is very suitable for Isinger's construction. Although our gravity resistance device is very powerful, who doesn't want to save a little? At least magic crystal can save a little consumption. In case Isinger loses his power at sea in the future, a city built with such light materials may not sink. When the time comes, it can at least be used as a ship when the time comes.

The production of armor plates is carried out separately, anyway, it has to be assembled at one time at the end, so now it is manufactured in large quantities according to the standard. In addition to the bottom armor, the city wall also needs protection, so the actual need to build is not only 1024 pieces, but also a lot of city walls. Fortunately, Erlang Shen has a large number of puppets, which makes them quicker.

The puppets first moved the sky stone to form a square with an area of ​​one square kilometer, and then piled it up to 30 meters in thickness. After finishing this layer, use the same method to pile up the multicolored Divine Stones. After all, the little Vermilion Bird and Erlang Shen will personally hold the fusion symbols to paste them, and then the piled up structure of these stone bricks will become a whole, not only The sky stones are connected, and there is no fault in the place where the sky stones and the colorful Divine Stone join, as if they are completely grown together. If our guild has this kind of symbol, there is no need to use a welding machine to weld the hull. Unfortunately, Erlang Shen refused to give me this kind of symbol.

While making the armor, some other players are directing the magic puppets of the guild to carry the sky stones. They let the magic puppets pile the sky stones into pre-made metal shells. . These metal shells are all steel pillars, the length has nothing common with each other, and the longest is as long as 30 kilometers. Judging from the scary welding traces, it took a lot of work to get these things. The diameter of the steel columns have nothing common with each other, but they are all empty inside. After the sky stone is put in, it forms a stone pillar shape. Using the fusion talisman, the sky stone piled in becomes a real stone pillar. After pouring the stone pillar out of the metal shell, the players started to refill the sky stone inside. These steel pillars are actually just molds in order to make the beams quickly and accurately.

A huge city needs support. Once such a big city is flying, the strength it can bear on its base is unimaginable. In the past, the bottom of the city was a whole piece of rock, which had enough strength to support these weights, but now the city is modular, and the armor part not only does not bear the support force, but also consumes the power to support the system. For this we need to build a sufficient Strong support structure.

Our guild has the internal support technology from Turtle Clan, coupled with the excellent performance of the super material such as Sky Stone, we can easily complete this support system. In fact, we have already calculated that after the completion of the new Isinger, although the size will be a full circle larger than the original, the total weight is less than one-sixth of the original. Of course, this is all thanks to the excellent new materials. Thanks to performance.

The largest supporting beam is 30 kilometers long, and the bottom surface is a square with a side of 300 meters. Even if the density of such a large beam is similar to that of foam, it still weighs 100 tons. If it weren't for the fact that we had a lot of lifting equipment, it would be really troublesome!

Due to the large number of personnel and reasonable design, our construction progress is surprisingly fast. In the middle of the night, Isengard's bottom craze was completed, but it was still just a keel. Nothing was installed except the support frame, but as long as this was completed, the speed of hooking up various equipment would be much faster.

taking advantage of the night Some huge secret equipment was transported to Isengard, all of which came from Steel City. We are building Isinger these days, and the restoration of the steel city has been completed. New Steel City has not only expanded but also added equipment. In the past, because it was mining and construction, the city was messy. This time, it happened to be planned through reconstruction. Now Steel City is basically like a factory, not like it used to look like a garbage dump. These new equipment is the first set of products after the completion of the steel city.

After the steel city equipment was transported to the sea, another piece of material came from the sea. This time the material came from Atlantis. After the merger of the White Shark and Mermaid Race, the technology of the two races combined to complete the new equipment we secretly ordered. The creativity of these things came from a member of the guild design bureau, but he had to admire his ingenuity. In fact, this time Isinger’s design has been adjusted so much because of his novel design, because his design will enable Isinger to have mobile capabilities, so we have spent so much effort to transform the city into a mobile fortress. Of course, another reason is that someone pays for us, so we don’t have to worry about the cost of the renovation at all.

The construction of the city is still going on, but the technicians of our guild have gathered together and started to assemble the super equipment shipped from Atlanta and Steel City. The technicians first erected some huge roulettes. These things are made of a mixture of graphite steel and special alloys of Atlantis. Their strength is probably the highest among the equipment we manufacture at present, even with the sky stone. It’s not much worse than I believe. These huge disks alone cost us almost 50 million crystal coins.

The disc was erected, and then began to be assembled with other types of discs. When they form a complete part, everyone can find that it is actually a huge wheel. The wheel made of super metal reaches 70 meters in diameter and is almost as high as twenty stories. Compared with the height, the width of these wheels is more prominent. The huge wheels have a width of 500 meters, which is almost like a roller.

These huge wheels make most of our branch members very strange, because everyone does not know what this thing is for. What's more terrifying is that there is more than one. After the first one is completed, the technicians begin to direct the magic puppet to assemble the second and the third. It seems that there are many more things.

At dawn, 3,200 such wheels were stacked on the ground to startle those who didn’t know it. What are so many giant metal wheels for? Almost everyone is speculating about this issue.

After these wheels were completed, our technicians fiddled with new things. This time the thing is a huge machine, as long as no one in our guild does not recognize this thing. This is an ordinary gravity resistance device. But this time the equipment is a bit different. The gravity resistance devices this time are all much smaller than normal, and each device seems to have more parts, but everyone doesn't know what these new parts are for.

The technicians let the magic puppet use sky stones to make some strips. The dimensions of these strips are exactly the same, the length is about 500 meters, slightly wider than those wheels, the width is about 50 meters, and the thickness is all 8 meters. These strips were wrapped by the technicians with some of the metal items shipped this time. It seems that these dimensions were planned at the beginning, because the size of the metal wrapping layer is just enough to fix the long slab of the Skystone. The wrapped stone slabs were opened in two, and then the researchers put the gravity resistance device on these special slabs, which was also designed from the perspective of size. The protrusions on the metal holder just inserted into the holes in the gravity resistance device. After putting the gravity resistance device on the board and fixing it, the researchers used another board to fix it on the device, so that the gravity resistance device was sandwiched between the two layers of boards.

The stone slab is relatively long, but the resistance device is very short. A resistance device is placed on one side of the board, and the space in the middle is filled with some sky stones. After the completion of this structure, it was wrapped with a pre-made metal shell, and this time there were some strange devices on the shell, which looked like protruding probes.

When the metal parts are connected to the stone slab of the sky stone, they become one by one strangely shaped elongated objects, but everyone still can't see what it is for. In the afternoon, the technicians finally started to use those strips, until this time all the people suddenly understood what it was, even the function of the wheels.

These strips are crossed together by one by one, and then the connectors on the metal card housings can just lock each other. After the designer was busy for an afternoon, 400 tracks were completed. These things are exactly the same as the track of the tank, except for the larger size, there is almost no difference. Everyone recognizes that this is a track at a glance. But everyone is still curious, why do you want to install gravity resistance devices in these crawlers?

Another sleepless night, Isinger's construction is still in full swing. The fleet at sea brought new cargo, and the technicians directed the magic doll to carry a large amount of equipment ashore. These devices are huge in size, and they look scary. Some parts are like Dragon Sect cranes on the dock, but the size is even bigger. The materials unloaded overnight were quickly used.

First, the technicians laid a track flat on the ground, and then they got 8 big wheels on it. I directed Lucky and Plague to help connect some grotesquely shaped devices. After these equipments are completed, they look like the large diesel engines used on luxury yachts, but they are extremely large in size. These devices that look like engines are actually engines, but they are not diesel-burning, but powered by magic crystals.

The researchers instructed the magic puppet to connect the eight metal support frames with the reversed letter Y, and then we also connected the power equipment. The eight inverted Y-shaped brackets are just mounted on the bearings of the eight wheels, and then the drive shaft on the power equipment is connected to the support frame. This inverted Y-shaped support is not only a support, it is also a transmission device. When all of these were completed, the researcher passed the track through the wheel and buckled it to death.

Now if anyone can’t tell what this is, it’s not justified. This thing is a crawler propulsion device. The only special thing is that there is a gravity resistance device in the crawler splint.

In this way, the researchers assembled all the remaining parts. After all 400 track propulsion devices are completed, it is very spectacular. The huge tracks and the brackets are simply mobile buildings.

These are still not finished. The third device has finally arrived. This time, the number of items shipped is small, but the volume is larger. What we see is a device similar to a jack, of course, it is much larger. There are a total of 401 jack-like equipment, 400 of which are exactly the same, only one is particularly large.

The researchers instructed the Totem giant dragon in the guild to turn over these 100-meter-high super jacks one by one. Thanks to the Totem giant dragon being the guild guardian just like the guardian beast, it’s not because Aixinge was destroyed and disappeared, otherwise we really don't know how to assemble these super huge parts!

These large jacks-like equipment were turned upside down and connected to the track propellers, and the thick metal support columns protruding from the "jacks" just fit into the holders on the support frames. The function of these jack devices is very simple, they can extend or shorten the metal support column, they can also rotate apart from this, and the function is only these two.

When these devices were installed, everyone understood their purpose better. In the eyes of everyone's excitement, the researchers finally came back to install the devices. But instead of moving those track thrusters, they got the biggest jack first.

The shape of this largest "jack" is very strange. It looks like two jacks connecting the central support column together, which means it looks like two head-to-head jacks.

The researcher asked the giant dragon to get it to the center of the city. Originally, those who directed the construction did not understand why the sky stone was used to erect the frame when building the urban frame, but now they finally understand the reason. This super jack is up to 800 meters high, and it would simply not be possible to get in unless the frame was erected in advance.

The jack was placed in the center of the city, and then some people climbed up and manually operated the jack to extend it until the jack on the top was on the beam. The construction staff began to fix the jack above, and using the parts shipped with the jack, everyone quickly connected it to the urban frame.

The researcher first experimented with the shrink jack, because the top is connected to the frame, and the bottom naturally leaves the ground. After confirming that it would not loosen, the researchers stretched it out to lift the city frame, and then ordered the removal of the temporary supports. When all the temporary supports were removed, the city was completely supported by jacks.

We experimented with the expansion and contraction jack again, and the urban frame moved up and down. To make sure that there is no problem with the expansion and contraction, we started to rotate the jack. This jack can be rotated left and right, but the speed will not be too fast. The lower half of the jack supports the ground, and when the upper half is turning, the frame of the city also turns with the jack. This is the steering device we designed, so convenient!

This chapter 8,000, make up the 2,000 owed yesterday, now Leveled out. In addition, thanks again to the reader who suggested the improvement of the gravity resistance device.
