Master of Thermodynamics

Chapter 195: Moose is on fire

"Hang up the anchor, and give me a bit more..."

Accompanied by the shouts of First Officer Lutherford, the two sailors hurriedly pushed a magic motive to the side of the winch, connected the anchor chain to the winch, and activated the rune disc on the magic motive.

The winch turned quickly, and the iron chain was retracted inch by inch, and the metal "ding and ding" sounded.

The deck was full of sailors and workers running around, and it was also full of shouts, roars, footsteps, and the sound of wheels rolling on the deck, which seemed to be full of enthusiasm.

The workers were busy pushing the carts loaded with black iron ore to the designated location. This was the last batch of ore hoisted using magic motives. Counting this batch of ore, the total weight of the ore shipped by the Odin has exceeded 250. Tons, the waterline of the hull has also risen by nearly 1.5 meters.

If you stand on the stern deck, you can clearly feel that the hull is shaking slightly, black smoke rises from the tall metal chimney, and the Thermo Demon engine is also activated.

Compared with the marine engines on the earth, the thermal engine is much quieter. Even in the power cabin, the noise is not too loud. When talking face-to-face, you only need to raise the volume. There is no major obstacle to communication.

Unlike marine diesel engines at all, the noise in the power compartment can be described as "deafening", which can even damage hearing over time, let alone normal communication.

Since it does not need to rely on combustion gas to do work, its combustion process becomes very stable, and the movement mechanism is greatly reduced. Correspondingly, the noise generated is also greatly reduced.

According to regulations, the Heat Demon engine must be warmed up for a period of time, whether it is winter or summer.

Car engines on the earth also need to be warmed up when starting, especially when starting cold in winter, this is to improve the combustion performance of the engine and increase the fluidity of the lubricating oil.

This is not the case with the Thermo Engine. The reason it needs to be warmed up is because the conversion efficiency of the Rune Array [Thermo Power] is very low when it is first started. As the Rune Array continues to run, the conversion efficiency will gradually increase until Reach the best condition.

This process takes about 3-4 minutes.

After everything was ready, Captain Elon gave an order, "Woo...Woo...Woo..." Three loud siren sounded immediately.

The whistle is naturally one of the products of Lord Lord's head pat, that is, he made a request, and the siege lion from the Rune Research Institute is responsible for research and development.

In Renault's view, as an epoch-making magic power ship, how can it not be equipped with a siren?

Is it also like normal sailing boats that all communication depends on roaring?

no way!

Although it feels a bit redundant, Seth and the others have to execute it since Lord Lord has the order.

They installed an additional heat exchange system on the Thermo engine, which uses the heat of the combustion chamber to heat a large water tank filled with water. Part of the steam generated is used to drive the siren, on the other hand as the welfare of the crew.

What benefits?

Hot water supply!

You can boil water to make tea and take a hot bath.

Of course, the former is only Renault's conjecture. There is currently no tea in the alien world, waiting for the lord to "invent" it. The latter has been proven to be very popular with the crew.

After a hard day, how comfortable is it to soak in a comfortable hot bath?

This is a unique benefit. Except for the Odin, no sailing ship in the world provides this kind of treatment.

After hearing the whistle, the sailor in the power cabin immediately switched the gearbox to first gear. The huge propeller shook suddenly and began to rotate slowly.

The Odin has returned.

Odin's rear deck.

This is the highest position of the entire ship, and it is also the most scenic position.

At this time, Renault, Moose, and Ronald "occupied" this feng shui treasure, leaning on the railing, talking and laughing.

The term "Feng Shui Treasure Land" is limited to normal seasons. In the stormy season, only strong people have the courage to stand here. Otherwise, after a sudden turbulence, they may fall off the deck unexpectedly and fall into the sea.

"This is the mana spar of the Extraordinary Grade Iron Armored Beast? How did it break into this?" Moose asked a little puzzledly, holding a fragment of the mana spar.

Although the fragment of the magic crystal in Moose's hand was only 1/4 of the complete magic crystal, it was nearly 4 fists in size, much larger than a normal magic crystal.

Its color is rare silver-gray, the texture is extremely bright and clear, the surface is very smooth, and the section is the same, it looks shining in the afternoon sun, and it looks dazzling.

Renault smiled awkwardly: "Uh... when I shot, I used a little bit more force..."

Moose glanced at him suspiciously, his eyes full of unbelief, and even the magic crystals of the other people were branded in this shape. This is also called "a little bit bigger"?

He heard the loud noise on the beach, and felt a faint vibration under his feet. At that time, many workers thought there was an earthquake.

The corner of Ronald's mouth bends a slight arc, and he quickly lowered his head. Moose has a very close relationship with the lord, and he can joke casually in private. He is not Moose, and he must always maintain a respectful attitude.

"Uncle Moose, keep this magic crystal, I have a lot more here..." Renault added again, trying to change the subject.

Moose nodded and accepted the magic crystal unceremoniously.

Although a large number of magic crystals have been obtained in the realm recently, and Moos has also allocated a lot of magic crystals, the extraordinary level of magic crystals will always be the most scarce item, and the energy contained is far more than ordinary magic crystals, which is a great help to those with abilities. .

There was obvious envy in Ronald's eyes, but he could only look at it. He also knew that this level of magic crystal was not what he could have hoped for.

While listening to the conversation between Lord Lord and Moose, he secretly looked at the pocket the Lord Lord hung on his belt.

"Uncle Moose, if we transport another batch of iron ore, there should be enough steel to transform the Haichao..."

"Haichao? Is that the half-completed sailing ship?"

"Yes, that's the ship. Those pirates do not care about it, but the shipbuilding is still good. Elon checked carefully. The materials and craftsmanship are quite good. It is not difficult to transform..."

Ronald extremely expected that Lord Lord would throw him a small mana spar like the one he killed the troll.

Last time Ronald was rewarded by Lord Lord with a magic crystal fragment about 1/4 the size of a fist. It was also the first magic crystal he obtained in his life. It made him so happy that he could not close his eyes almost overnight, and took it from time to time. Come out and have fun.

But Ronald knew that the possibility of Lord Lord granting the magic crystal again is extremely small.

The main reason why he was rewarded last time was because he was the first surrendered awakener and also provided a lot of useful information for Lord Lord.

This time he just cleaned up the iron-clad beast's corpse with no special credit. He just wanted to get valuables like magic crystals just by selling coolies, and he didn't have the door.

Sure enough, as Ronald expected, Lord Lord did not untie the leather bag that made him greedy.

For Renault, this is a matter of course, although his magic crystals are many and it is extremely easy to come, but this is not a reason for free rewards.

Here, the magic crystal is like a Chinese cabbage, he can easily take out 7 or 8 yuan, but this is only limited to Renault alone.

Others want to get a little magic crystal, it's difficult.

Even the transcendent is no exception.

Take the giant tortoise that Renault exploded with a shot just now. Under normal circumstances, how many extraordinary people are needed to deal with it?

At least 5 people have the strength to fight the giant tortoise.

You know, the giant tortoise has almost no shortcomings, its defense is extremely strong, the earth-type supernatural beings are not as good as it, the speed of action is not slow at all, not many human superhumans can run it.

The only drawback is the lack of long-range ability, but the ability of [Gravity] perfectly bridges this disadvantage.

To defeat it, at least 10 extraordinary people will be required.

As for the kill, it depends on luck.

Why do you say that?

The giant tortoise is not a fool, nor is it a monster in the game. If you see a bunch of extraordinary people appear, the first reaction is of course to slip away.

Knowing that the enemy is strong, why don't you run? Are you really waiting for the enemy to come?

Where will the giant tortoise go?

Of course it is nautical miles.

Its size is huge, and its impact is surprisingly strong. It is much stronger than tanks on the earth. As long as it rushes, no one can stop it.

Once it rushes to the shore and dives into the water, who has a way to get it?

The giant tortoise has lived for so many years, do you really think it has lived as a dog at this age?

Because of this, there is not one Transcendent-level beast in the wild that is easy to kill.

There are even some very cunning guys who are equally proficient in the sixteen-character tactics of guerrilla warfare: "The enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and harassed, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and we chase."

For this kind of abnormality, there are too many people, it really may not be able to kill it, maybe there is a possibility of being killed.

So, it is very difficult for the extraordinary to kill the beasts of the same level, but it is easy to kill the beasts of the lower level? Like a beast of the awakening level?

Can mana spar be brushed in this way?

This question is very well asked, and the answer is that in theory it is possible, but in practice, it is not possible.

The reason is not difficult to understand. Basically, the places that are easy to clean have been cleaned by people, and the rest are the places that are not easy to clean, such as the remote and deadly areas such as the Tide Islands.

Therefore, even if it is an extraordinary person, it is not easy to use magic crystals.

To give another example, the black iguana on the black lizard island produces magic crystals, but why does Renault only go there once?

Why not do it repeatedly? As long as you swipe a few more times, won't you have a lot of magic crystals?

Because the magic lizards have deeply remembered him, as long as they see the "two-legged monster", they can run faster than rabbits, or they will quickly dive into the sea or hide in the bushes, refusing to show up. body.

If Renault went to forcibly brush it again, maybe there are not many magic lizards on the island and would consider moving.

Being a neighbor with such a dangerous guy, the devil is really insecure.

For the above reasons, any piece of mana spar is an extremely rare good thing in the eyes of the transcendent.

Since the magic crystal is so precious, Renault certainly would not easily reward his subordinates.

Ronald wants a reward, so let's work hard for the master first.

After Renault and Moose chatted for a few more words, he suddenly realized that Moose's face seemed very wrong.

In the windy moon, when the temperature was a little high, and in the cool sea breeze, Moose's forehead was oozing a little bit of sweat, and his cheeks were also flushed, as if he was running for several kilometers in the scorching heat.

Renault was taken aback and asked quickly: "Uncle Moose, what's the matter with you?"

Moose showed a trace of pain. He moved his lips and was about to speak. As a result, he just opened his mouth, and there was a ray of flame in his mouth!

Renault stared blankly, I wiped it, when can Moose breathe flames?

Is he about to awaken the dragon vein warlock physique?

Haven't heard of this thing in this world?
