Starting from Zero

After returning to Isengard, I began to instruct everyone to prepare various infrastructures for the baby who was about to arrive. The three Divine Beasts who made mistakes were worried that they would be punished. My baby didn't dare to pay for the loss and handed it over obediently, and I soon waited for all kinds of babies.

After the items arrived, I started to instruct everyone to put the items aside and install them one by one. The first installation is divine arrow, this is because I brought back all the pedestals first prepared for it. Isinger has the most sophisticated large-scale hydraulic chassis. The divine arrow super missile is the most suitable for this chassis. Four buildings like turrets are prepared for them to hide them in. The location of the launcher is chosen to be installed on the top of the highest command level, and the missile launcher is placed on the four corners, so that the launch angle is wider, and the height is conducive to the positioning of the missile.

Four boundary towers are installed on the platform on the top of the base layer. When the middle layer and the base layer are connected, the four towers are just on the four corners of the middle layer.

Although the Ruyi Altar is not small, it is much lighter than those towers. We placed it in the central garden on the middle level. Any wish for this thing can be realized anyway. Anyone can try it. It is more convenient for everyone to make a wish in a spacious place. In terms of installation, this thing doesn't need to be moved at all, just use some clips to fix it on the ground and don't run around.

Shenwu wind chimes are the simplest, just hang them on the four top corners inside the base layer. Of course, protective measures are still needed, but they are all small things.

After reading the book on Weaponry, the people in our guild said that it is actually an array. The structure is very simple, but it must be enough to cover the entire city. I asked them to paint this array on the ground of the city with gold paint mixed with crystal powder. The huge array covers the whole city, and it will be automatically activated during important wars. Except for Isinger, other cities must also be painted with such an array, but those cities cannot be painted directly on the ground. They must be covered with a layer of floor tiles so that no one can see them.

In addition to the things brought back from Celestial Court, Vina is also super enthusiastic to help this time. She has a physical body in reality and naturally understands the importance of my position. She used to only take care of me more simply, but now she has become a complete help. Of course, due to system restrictions, she can’t do too much, but Some small favors are not a problem. For example, now Isinger’s city has been painted with strange symbols everywhere. According to her, these symbols are ancient incantion, which can make the city stronger.

Our city is still undergoing final construction, and Ashford suddenly ran over. This guy was dumbfounded as soon as he came out of the transnational Transmission Formation. Isinger has been here several times. He knows what Isinger was like before, but he is completely dumbfounded by his current appearance.

Ashford saw me for a long time in the city before he met me outside the city. When he saw me, he immediately asked in surprise: "This is the reconstructed Isinger?"< /p>

I am nodded. "How do you feel?"

Axiu Fude stretched out a finger up and down and half-pointed Heavenly Dao: "Well...! How do you say it! The first feeling is that it is more practical than before. , The single-story area seems to have increased a lot, but according to this layout, it seems that the total area is not as good as before."

"Well. The area of ​​the new city is 21.7% larger than before, but the interior The actual area is only 87.1% of the original. Many of these are mechanical areas. The area that people often enter is actually less than 40% of the previous."

"Why is it so much smaller?"

I thought for a while and said: "The most direct reason is that there are fewer levels. The original Isengard has 16 floors below the ground, but now Isengard has only 10 floors, which is 6 less. The floor area is of course not as large as before. As for the use area, because the entire city is now mechanized, machines and pipes take up too much space, so there is less space for people. In fact, we intend to reduce the use District. The original Isinger is too big, many places are empty, and sparsely populated. Now make things more compact to facilitate everyone to live together, as the free space has become a weapon system space. It’s no exaggeration. In other words, Isengard is now a mobile fortress, with firepower stronger than a large fleet, and we have an air force, and the battle strength is definitely more than three times stronger than before."

Axiford look. Looking at the city, he said, "It feels like it's higher than before!"

"Did you see that too?"

"Of course." Ashford Very confidently said: "The visual height should be more than a hundred meters higher than before! But it turns out that the spiritual gathering tower cannot be counted. I am talking about the main body of the city."

I am excited. To Ashford said: "Do you want to know why Isinger is taller than before?"

"Yes!" Ashford curiously asked: "Isn't it because the levels have increased? The original city was symmetrical. Eight of the 16 floors were underground. Now the 10 floors are all above ground. Of course it’s high."

"hahahaha! It’s not that simple." I smiled and said: "In fact, I have lowered the height of each floor. It is said that the city should be much shorter than before, but it is now taller. The real reason lies in the bottom floor. We have some new equipment in it, so the city has changed. It’s much higher."

"New equipment? What? Is there practical value? What is it for?" As soon as he heard of the new equipment, Ashford was excited.

I deliberately whipped his appetite. "Actually, this thing doesn't have much technical content, it's just a basic transformation. Actually, this thing is still your equipment."

"My equipment?"

I just wanted Answered him, suddenly Woma ran over and said: "President, the city is all completed, do you need to experiment?"

I said to Ashford: "Just let you take a look. Woma , You tell everyone that Isinger will perform functional tests immediately, and all personnel should prepare immediately."

"Okay."

After half an hour, the new city has been fully prepared. When it's ready, New Isengard will be truly resurrected soon.

It’s the afternoon, the sky stone has absorbed the sunlight, the black city has turned into the sky blue, I stood outside the city with Ashford and the main members of the guild looking at Issing Grid for functional testing. In Ashford's surprised gaze, the huge jack at the bottom of Isengard began to unfold slowly, and the city trembled first and then began to slowly rise.

"Purple Moon, what is this?" Ashford had been completely frightened by this huge jack.

"Hehe, don’t get excited, the good stuff is still behind!"

I just finished, and only heard a click, some armor plates at the bottom of the city unexpectedly started. Open outwards. The modular armor spread out to reveal a huge cavity, and some huge machinery painted with yellow and black stripes stretched out almost when the armor was fully deployed. When these things stretched out halfway, Ashford yelled: "Crawlers? Purple Moon, is that a crawler?"

I nodded: "It's a crawler, our custom-made crawler for Isinger "

It wasn't until this time that Ashford suddenly realized. "Are the huge metal parts you ordered from our guild some time ago just for it? It's no wonder my people say those things can't be connected at all!"

The rose standing next to me He laughed: "Our own production line was also destroyed. After the restoration, there was no way to produce so many equipment at the same time, so we ordered a part of it from you. Of course, we still want to protect the trade secrets, so we made them ourselves. The connection equipment that is handed over to you is only the large keel for support. In addition, we have ordered other parts from other forces. You are only responsible for one part, and even if you want to imitate it, you can’t figure out what we’re making. How is it? Our secrecy is still pass?"

"You are really smart enough to think of a way to produce parts separately and then ship them together for assembly. In fact, this thing is even if you tell me. We won’t build it. Our guild doesn’t have so much money to build such a big mobile city. No, not only is it so big, but even if it’s smaller, even if it’s only one-tenth of this, we will not be responsible for the money to be used. It started."

Rose smiled and said: "Actually, we can't afford it, but this time someone paid for me, and most of the money we made in Indonesia some time ago went in. "

Ashford yelled unconvincedly: "What is that little money? Even if you throw in all the auction money in Indonesia, it will be a profit of 10,000%! You simply I bought a real city with the money to buy a city model."

I immediately said: "I know we make a lot of money, but this is the compensation of the original city, and it cannot be regarded as a complete profit. In the past. Isinger also counts the money, but I admit that it is indeed a big advantage."

When we talked, those huge crawlers were fully stretched out, 400 crawlers landed at the same time, and then It's a sound of zhi zhi quacking metal parts under heavy pressure. Although we use large and lightweight materials and we have removed a lot of unnecessary equipment, Isengard is a city after all, and the weight is still not light. The grounding area of ​​400 crawlers is already very large, but the ground still cannot fully bear such a large pressure. All the crawlers have sunk more than two meters to be implemented, but this depth is not enough for huge crawlers to be any problem. Calculated proportionally, the sinking depth of this depth is smaller than the sinking ratio of a regular tank track on the ground.

When all the tracks are successfully grounded, Voma uses the leaves of the new city tree to give operation instructions to the new city tree. "Put away the central support frame."

With a click, the big jack in the middle of the city began to slowly rise. Since there was a smooth sky stone under the jack, it didn't bring much dirt after putting it away. It took two minutes and 27 seconds for this big jack to retract. The large machinery is really slow!

Woma picked up the leaf again. "The tree of the city, don't send the power to the propeller too much, just a little bit."

With a creak, 400 huge crawlers made a rumbling sound at the same time. There was a sound of metal distortion, and the city really started to move. This time, only the framework is different from at first. The current city is very heavy. This is its real situation. It is qualified if it can operate normally under such conditions.

Isinger finally started to move, and Early-Stage performed fairly well. I also picked up the leaves of the city tree and let it speed up while checking the pressure resistance of each part with its own root system, and immediately stop the test if there is any danger. As the speed gradually increases, those of us standing by can clearly feel the earthquake-like shaking under our feet. When this huge monster moves, it is The earth shook and the mountain quivered. It is estimated that if you want to sneak close to the enemy in the future, unless you pass from the sky, the enemy can feel the vibration from dozens of kilometers away.

The speed is gradually increasing. The tree of the city calculates the safe speed. Because the city is too heavy, the burden of supporting the system is very large. In the case of full combat configuration, the maximum speed of the city can reach at most ordinary person jogging speed. Although the maximum safe speed can reach the speed of a human trot, taking into account international practices, the equipment is generally set aside a safe range, so we limit the normal cruising speed of the city to the normal walking speed of the ordinary person. Unless there is an emergency, it is not allowed Enter the maximum speed.

After testing the ground speed, Ashford was already surprised that he could not speak, but the next thing surprised him even more. Isinger stopped first, and then began to rise. When the city rose 50 meters and then hovered, the tracks began to retract into the city, the armor plate returned to close the hole, and the city completely returned to what it was when it was on the ground.

Ashford asked: "Although the city can move on the ground and fly, it's a pity that it can't fly in the air. What a pity!"

I smiled and then Said: "Let you see the miracle right away."

"Miracle? What are you talking about?" Ashford asked me.

I pointed to Isengard, and Ashford hurriedly looked over. Inside Isinger, the gravity resistance device in the crawler cleats that dragged the city just now was still working, but on the track ring in the center of the city, all the equipment like the trams suddenly turned on. These things made a slight vibration and gradually lit up, while the gravity resistance device under the track was gradually reducing power and eventually shutting down.

At this time, Isinger was completely dragged and stopped in the air by the device under the orbital ring, but the people outside could not see the change. The devices under the orbital ring suddenly started to operate, the steel guide wheels began to rotate, and the friction force caused the orbit to move in the opposite direction. Under Ashford's surprised gaze, Isinger spun. After the city slowly turned 135 degrees, the wheels on the devices stopped traction at the same time. The city continued to rotate by inertia. When the rotation angle reached 165 degrees, some strange clip-like equipment clicked and jammed the wheels. These are actually brake pads, but the shape is different. Influenced by the brake pads, the wheels gradually decelerate and transmit power to the track ring, which then transmits the force to the entire city. After rotating 180 degrees, Isinger finally stopped accurately, and the braking device controlled by the City Tree was indeed very accurate.

Until the city came to a complete stop, Ashford didn’t think of it and grabbed me and shouted: "What is that? Have you worked out a solution to the problem of the gravity resistance device Space Lock? Tell me soon. Me, how does that thing move? I'm willing to pay for it, you can buy anything you want."

"Calm down." I held down Ashford and said: "Don't worry, wait for the presentation Can we talk after we finish?"

"Is there anything else I can show?" Ashford asked strangely.

"Even if not, at least you have to let me finish the test!"

"Okay!" Ashford quickly calmed down.

Energy brushes popped up on Isinger's track support frame. These energy brushes contacted the energy probes of the gravity resistance devices in the track cleats extending outside, so these gravity resistance devices were quickly activated. After the gravity resistance devices under these tracks were activated, the devices under the orbital ring quickly shut off their power. The city tree controlled the power pipeline and began to send energy to the engine of the crawler thruster. The huge crawlers began to rotate, and then the city naturally moved with it.

Ashford opened his mouth and watched Isinger panning in the sky, then turned and asked: "How fast can this thing run?"

"Don't worry. This is our first test, and the results will come out soon."

Isinger’s power is actually very large, and its moving speed is limited not because the resistance is greater than the power, but We are worried that the speed of the city is too fast, which will cause huge kinetic energy to disperse the supporting structure. The ground is affected by the terrain and the support structure is under great pressure, so no matter what we do, we cannot increase the speed, but the air is different. There are no obstacles here, so the speed can be slightly faster. However, the air is not a flat river, and the change of air currents has no small impact on the city. The area of ​​Isinger makes it very seriously affected by the air currents, especially those gas wells, which are like potholes on the ground. Cars rushing through large pits on the ground at high speed can easily damage the suspension system, while airplanes can easily break their wings when they encounter large gas wells in the air. Isinger is like a car when moving on the ground, and is similar to an airplane after being lifted off, both of which are very dangerous.

After our tests, we have concluded that although gas wells are also dangerous, they are much better than uneven ground. On the premise of safety, Isinger's maximum air speed can reach 30 kilometers per hour. Although this speed is still very slow, at least it is much better than on the ground. However, there is a prerequisite that Isengard's impossible stops instantly at this speed. Isinger's ground safety speed is 5 kilometers per hour, and that speed can ensure that the city stops within 100 meters, but not in the air. The speed of 30 kilometers per hour is very dangerous for Isengard. If you want to stop at this speed, you must start to decelerate 10 minutes in advance. During this period, you will almost rush more than a thousand meters to stop completely.

After completing the air and ground tests, we started the final water test. The three basic levels of Isengard have ceilings, and all entrances have waterproof partitions made by Atlantis, which means that Isengard will not enter water at all. Because most of the materials used in the entire city are very light, and the interior space is large, Isinger's simply won't sink completely in the water.

For this test, we plan to go to the city to feel it. After everyone entered the city, Isengard began to move toward the sea. Because the city is relatively large, the water depth at the seaside is definitely not appropriate. We must fly to the deep sea. It took more than two hours to reach a deep enough area and Isengard began to slowly descend. Such a big guy can't get into the water too quickly, or it will turn into a big tsunami.

The thick fog created by the wind chimes of Shenwu obscured a large area around, and the nearby fleet saw the fog and avoided it far, and no one would be so stupid as to rush into the fog. After the city touched the water, we slowly reduced the power of the gravity resistance device, and the city began to slowly decline because of insufficient support. When these gravity resistance devices were completely closed, Isinger finally floated on the surface of the sea. Due to the weight problem, the entire base layer has been completely launched, and the middle layer and the command layer have risen on the water like a small island. Because the gravity resistance device had all been closed, the city started to shake a little like a ship, but the shaking was very slight. The waves of such a big guy can no longer affect it too much. The mechanical layer at the bottom of Isinger is simply the best ballast, and the city floats stably on the sea.

Axiuford said excitedly: "Now it's good, you have a super sea fortress, I am afraid that the fleet will not be mixed in the future."

I smiled. "Isinger is impossible to replace the fleet. In terms of battle strength, it is indeed much better than the fleet, but this guy is too slow. If they want, most battleships should be able to avoid it safely!"

"That's true." Ashford also understood that speed is Isinger's only flaw. "Okay, Purple Moon, you are lucky enough. Although Isengard is not fast enough, it is not a battleship. Its target should be the enemy's city. Other people's cities can't run, so it doesn't matter how slow you are."

"That's true."

Ashford said: "Actually, I think you are very easy to attack the city, as long as you fly over people's heads and then fall down. . No city can withstand the weight of your city, it will definitely be squashed."

"Don't make any bad ideas! Isinger's defense is indeed high enough, but if you use it If you use your own weight, the bottom of the city will definitely break. It’s not cost-effective to use Isinger to exchange for someone else’s small city."

"Only yours is exquisite!"

"What can I do! Cheap is not good, good goods are not cheap. The American HSB strategic bomber knows that? The take-off weight is about to catch up with the airship, the speed is not much slower than the fighter, and it is anti-radar and anti-infrared, but one It costs 15 billion. As long as one plane is dropped, a large number of people will be replaced in the US military and political circles. Everyone says that things are more expensive than the president. My city is the same. Although both attack and defense are top quality, the cost is definitely also Superb. This time I was taken advantage of to help me pay the bill. I can do it in one step. I can only use it carefully. I can repair the peripheral equipment if it breaks. If I damage a whole layer of equipment, I will go bankrupt."< /p>

"It's a bit expensive, but it's worth the money!" Ashford suddenly cried. "That's right. The gravity resistance device can't only move upwards. What if you increase the pressure and go down?"

"You mean turning Isinger into a submarine? We thought about it a long time ago. It is indeed feasible, but unfortunately the speed will be slow and unimaginable after diving."

"Why?" Ashford couldn't understand what I said. "Why are you slow when you have enough power?"

Woma explained: "This is not a problem of power, but a problem of appearance."

"What's wrong with the appearance? "

"Isinger is not a submarine. It does not have a perfect fluid shape. If it is completely launched, it can only move slowly. As long as the speed increases, the resistance of the upper structure will cause the city to tilt backwards. If we use a gravity resistance device to press hard, the city will break, and if we don’t press it, we will simply turn over. So if we dive, we cannot speed up at all. But we know a way to move quickly on the surface of the water."

< p>"Water surface?"

"Well. Just find the corresponding ocean current and run along the ocean current. The speed should be able to reach the speed of ordinary battleship, at least faster than on land and in the sky. Some. The city is relatively large, and it can well accept the thrust of the water itself. It is definitely the most suitable for drifting."

"I think it's better to forget it!" Ashford said: "On the world Most of the ocean currents cannot be used because they are turbulent currents. The only few routes that use ocean currents are far away from you and are not available to you."

I nodded. "Actually, we did not plan to run in the sea. The reason for launching is to save energy. The gravity resistance device was designed by your guild. You should know this better than me. Isinger's propulsion method determines that it must use gravity resistance device. Consumes a lot of energy, but energy is the most precious thing. We really can’t do it. Otherwise, I wouldn’t spend so much effort to get the city to run on the ground. Flying with a gravity resistance device is indeed spectacular, and it’s safe and safe. The speed is better than that of the ground, but the gravity resistance devices you designed are simply burning money!"

Axiu Fude actually slapped me on the shoulder and laughed: "haha, you finally know me Why do you think I sold you the gravity resistance device? Don’t I know how to use such precious strategic materials? It’s not all because of the terrifying consumption speed of the gravity resistance device. I think it’s a It’s a tasteless technology that has little use value at all, so I sold it to you so cheaply."

"It turns out that you guy planned this way. No wonder it was sold so cheaply!"

I was about to hit Ashford, but he suddenly blocked my fist and said, "Don't just talk about me! You are not a good person yourself. Those high-level steels are so expensive for me, if not for the quality is really good. , And I won’t spend so much money on the ones that are not sold elsewhere!"

I smiled awkwardly: "Tacitly tacitly! hahahaha!"

Standing next to Xingyue touched her arm and shuddered: "Two profiteers!"

Rose smiled and said: "It is because they are both profiteers that they have worked together for so long. , The auxiliary utopia without foundation is always just a dream."

Ashford smirked with me for a long time and suddenly asked: "By the way, you said that after the experiment, tell me how to solve the design of gravity resistance device. Tell me the method of Space Lock."

I first ordered the city tree to fight the land and then said to Ashford: "In fact, this design does not solve the gravity resistance device Space Lock. The problem, we just avoided the problem, but after all, we avoided it. At least the gravity resistance device has practical value. Don't you must be in order to what our invention means?"

" It’s dark!" Ashford thought about it for a while and said, "Okay! But you just avoid it and don’t solve it. The price can’t be too high, right?"

"I don’t ask too much. When reselling technical achievements, we must give priority to our guild. We don’t want you to sell to others, and your guild’s battleship. Unless you build it yourself, you must order from us. The price is based on 95% of the market price. Is it okay to suggest?"

"Are you too dark?" Ashford cried, "On the surface, you I didn't want anything. In fact, all the external channels of my guild were stuck in these two contracts. I know you want to unify Asia, but you don’t have to tie me to your war chariot, right? "

"Isn't it a pop alliance these years?" Tie you to my war chariot, at least one less enemy! If you feel that you are at a disadvantage, add another one. After the scientific and technological achievements of our guild are released, you can have the right of first refusal, and the price is preferential, how about? So you won’t suffer, right? Our guild’s scientific and technological research and development capabilities are not inferior to yours at all! "

"Okay, okay! "Axiu Fude is also a wise man, and immediately nodded when he saw that the benefits were almost there: "Science and technology resource sharing, I agree. "

After signing the agreement, Ashford and I went to the bottom mechanical layer together, where the huge crawler tracks were still in motion. Ashford didn’t know that there was a gravity resistance device in the track interlayer. We When the city moved in the air, the track had been retracted, so he did not see it. Now Ashford was completely dumbfounded when he saw the work of running the system. "That's how you avoided it? "

"What's wrong?" Any questions? "

Axiu Fu said: "This is too...too...too simple, right? "

Woma, who serves as a commentator, said: "Technology is sometimes not as complicated as everyone thinks. A simple adjustment can avoid major defects. This is also a form of technology. "

"What about turning?" "Axiu Fude asked: "How do you turn?" These tracks seem to be unable to make the city turn, right? "

"This is complicated by another set of devices. "We took Ashford under the orbital ring and showed it to him. "Did you see that thing?" When the city is completely stationary, we will activate the gravity resistance devices in those pods, and then close the gravity resistance devices under the crawlers. Those pods can move on the track, but the track itself moves after the gravity resistance device is activated. "

"Do you use this thing to turn?" "

"Isn't it great? "I looked at Ashford and asked.

Ashford shouted: "Ah! I was cheated! You big liar! "

"What did I lie to you?" "

Axiu Fude cried: "I originally planned to buy this method back to build an aerial battleship. You can't turn around without stopping, how can you let me build an aerial battleship? "

Woma suddenly said: "Who can say no?" "

"Can you? "

"Of course it works. "Voma solemnly vowed said: "Give me 3 days and promise to give you a combat aircraft. "

I looked towards Woma in surprise: "What did you say?" Can you really build an aerial battleship? "I was also surprised, because I always thought that such a gravity resistance device that cannot be steered could not produce an aerial battleship.

Axiu Fude also asked excitedly: "Is it really possible?" "

Woma said: "Battleship can't be made." "When we heard this we all wilted, but Woma quickly continued: "But we can build small aircraft. "

"How small is it? "

Woma thought for a while and said: "Single or tandem aircraft, if you can find good materials, maybe you can make a three-person aircraft a bit bigger, it may be a problem! I just have a preliminary idea, and the specific things can't be determined until they are made. "

I immediately said excitedly: "Then as soon as possible!" Why didn't you talk about such a useful thing earlier? "

"I just thought of the design proposal. In fact, this new idea is also a solution to evade the Space Lock feature of the gravity resistance device, but my idea is more exaggerated. If it is completely perfected, it will not be impossible to build a large battleship based on this in the future. "

"Large...type...battle...ship? "The expressions and speeches of Ashford and I are exactly the same, with green lights shining in our eyes.

Hong Yue shook his head again next to him: "Sure enough, things gather together!" "

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

There was a power outage here last night Yes, the whole community is completely black. The lines in the old community are aging, and now every family has one or two air conditioners, and they can’t stand up when the wires come in the summer! Today I made up 3,000, which is a total of 6,000. This is for me. It is said that the power outage is a natural disaster, it is a force majeure, so please don't scold me, I don't want it!
