Chapter 645: A new invention of the ship

Jinxia City, the outskirts of North Gate.

The army has set up a long cordon in the surrounding area, not because of an

enemy attack or accident, but because the AA intends to conduct a weapon

improvement test here.

Unlike previous tests conducted on the martial arts field or on the beach,

this time the bare field has circled a range of nearly 100 acres, and no

residents are allowed to approach the test field. Both the scale and the level

of confidentiality are greatly improved.

The host is naturally Mo Yun, the head of the Bureau of Mechanical

Engineering.

"Master Mo, the target is ready!" Ai Li reported eagerly, "The measured

distance from the shooting point is two hundred and thirty-five feet, and all

personnel have been evacuated."

"Thank you." Mo Yun raised his observation mirror and looked towards the sea

to the east-he saw a two-masted ship floating half-tilted not far from the

shore, and visible signs of freezing could be seen below the waterline. This

is a pirate ship that invaded Jinxia's coastal waters before. Because the hull

was severely damaged by the ice boat, it didn't have much repair value, so

after being pulled to the shore and stranded, it was thrown on the beach. Now

that I temporarily freeze the breach and then pull it back to the sea as a

target, it is considered to have exhausted the last value.

"Do you want to be the motivator for this test?"

"Huh, me?" Ai Li was taken aback for a moment, her expression a little eager

to try.

Mo Yun nodded and said, "Anyway, you know the process, as long as you inject

gas according to the usual method of operation."

"Yes, I will try my best to do my best!" the elf patted his chest.

"You don't have to be too biased towards her. If you make a mistake, you

should be punished according to the rules." The high priest Sonia who was

watching covered her mouth and chuckled. Although the words were a bit harsh,

everyone could tell that she was in a good mood.

"It's not eccentric. Her performance in the Bureau of Mechanical Engineering

is indeed one of the best students." Mo Yun shook his head, "What's more, half

of the technology this time comes from the seed of the spirit tree. It is

appropriate for her to act as an inspiration. However."

"Master Mo, the new warhead is loaded and ready to be tested!" The assistant

in the distance raised the green flag.

"Go ahead." Mo Yun ordered.

"Yes, sound the alarm!"

The high-pitched buzzing sound resounded through the countryside and forests-

this is also the last safety reminder, so that residents who are close to the

test area can leave as soon as possible.

After the three alarms, Ai Li activated the electromagnetic cannon.

After a flash of fire, the projectile shot directly towards the target ship at

a speed beyond the naked eye. The distance of more than two hundred feet was

only a short time away! However, the projectile did not directly hit the

ship's hull.

There is a slight deviation in the parameters of the test shot.

However, a seemingly ordinary shelling test changed here.

There was a sudden thunderous explosion at the landing point, and a group of

dazzling flames burst out, bringing up a water column nearly fifty feet high!

The shock wave caused an eye-catching white circle on the sea, and the hull

trembled violently even if it was not hit directly!

Sania raised her brows in surprise.

This kind of power... even the spark shells equipped for the forty-eight-

pounder gun, right?

No... It should be said that it is far better!

"Is this really the effect of the spirit tree?"

"Well...Without this key material, it would be difficult for the test to go so

smoothly." Mo Yun raised his mouth slightly. Although she didn't directly hit

the ship, but seeing the splashes all over the sky, she knew in her heart that

this design idea was completely feasible.

That's right, the main weapon, the electromagnetic gun, is still the original

weapon without any changes. The thing she really tested is the new generation

of long-barreled projectiles.

It can be said that an arm-sized cannonball has concentrated all the technical

crystallization of Jinxia City so far.

And its research and development idea is exactly the "general instrumental

introduction" proposed by Xia Fan.

In the past, half of the magical instruments produced by the Bureau of

Mechanical and Electrical Engineering were Tiandongyi, and the other half were

various tremor magical instruments, such as the audio instrument, the streamer

amplifier, and the amplification magical instruments in the Xianshu Jiuyouhuo.

However, Xia Fan believes that magical weapons should not only stay in Kun and

Zhen two types, and any type of magical arts should try to develop their own

magical weapons.

It's just that the truth is simple to say, but in fact it is extremely

difficult.

First of all, the basic spells of some alchemy are really difficult to use on

magical tools, such as the tranquility spell in the hurdle spell, the water

moon, etc.... These completely need to rely on the consciousness of the

operator to guide them, and the talisman alone does not have much effect.

Another point is that any technique used in high and deep places will always

form different branching directions according to personal perception. Although

this kind of alchemy has a stronger effect, it can't be made into a magic

weapon for others to use.

It is this kind of malpractice that makes the training direction of the Privy

Council more inclined to the cultivation of human beings rather than the

development of organs. A guard-level alchemist is enough to sweep hundreds of

introductory spirits who hold common magical instruments. The inclusion of a

large number of talents ensures that they do not need to invest more resources

in the latter.

What has changed this situation is still universal education.

A large amount of unified knowledge is mastered by the introductory

enthusiasts, so that they have formed a set of quite close world cognition.

The magical tool that one person has explored, as long as a little

explanation, other people can quickly learn it. In addition, a large number of

drawings of artifacts retrieved from the Privy Council of Gyeonggi also gave

the Bureau's research a reference that could help us get started.

More importantly, the books written by Xia Fan are not just researches on

earthquake techniques.

Natural sciences can be said to be all-encompassing, and all eight categories

of knowledge are involved. At most, it is only the level of research.

The alchemist who left the genus understood the relationship between

combustion and oxidation, and for the first time understood the nature of

explosion.

The alchemists of the genus started frantically using plants and animals to

conduct resuscitation experiments ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and saw the mystery of

the microcosm for the first time under the finely polished lenses of the

Ministry of Machinery and Industry.

The alchemist of the Kun class looked up at the starry sky and began to draw

star maps according to the theory of the regular motion of stars.

Although everyone's research was very simple at the beginning, and basically

stayed at a level that ordinary people can observe at a glance, but the core

they observed has changed completely from the past.

It is based on these foundations that more and more practical instruments have

been included in the manufacturing category of the Bureau of Mechanical

Engineering.

For example, the damage-type long-rod projectile this time.

It adopts a configuration completely different from that of a flower bomb, and

its core composition is exactly three kinds of magical instruments that

interact with each other.

After adjusting the shooting angle, Ai Li sent out a second round of test

shots——

This time, the artillery shells accurately hit the target ship, which is

different from the previous projectile body that penetrated the wooden hull.

This time, a violent explosion occurred in the center of the hull. Under the

impact of the heat wave, the damaged hull broke into two pieces and the mast

was even more severe. It was blown away tens of feet away!

Everyone who participated in the test burst into enthusiastic cheers.

There is no doubt that this invention will completely change the status quo

that electromagnetic guns are not suitable for naval warfare.
