Chapter 172 Four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle

After 5 minutes, amidst excitement, the gearbox was switched to gear 2, followed by gear 3. Each gear was tested for 5 minutes.

According to the calculations of the alien siege lions, the propeller speeds corresponding to the third gear are 2 rpm, 6 rpm and the highest 11 rpm.

When the third gear was tested, the sound in the pool was particularly astonishing. The water in the pool was almost completely boiled by the propeller, and the waves near the propeller flew up to more than 8 meters high.

It could have been higher, but the roof of the test laboratory was only 8 meters high.

Calculated according to the torque power formula P=Tn/9550, when the speed reaches the highest speed, the output power will reach an astonishing 4500 kilowatts, which is equivalent to the total power of more than 40 magic motives.

Only this kind of big guy with terrible power is the most ideal power for a large ship!

Renault had not considered the magic motive before, but after discussing with a group of magicians, he decisively overthrew the original idea and gave up the idea of ​​installing the magic motive on a large ship.

There is only one reason: cost!

Once the power of the magic motive exceeds 1500 kilowatts, it needs higher quality magic spar, which is absolutely unacceptable to Renault. It can be used occasionally. If it is used as a common power, it will not be enough to kill all the beasts of the world.

How about connecting multiple low-power magic motives in series?

I’m sorry, Lord Lord still can’t use it, because a thousand-ton ship often takes a long voyage of several thousand kilometers, and all the magic stones in the territory can only make one trip.

Since magic stones are not good, what kind of energy should be used for marine power?

Heat!

Only heat! This has been confirmed on earth!

Because of this, after Renault entered the Tide Islands, it immediately listed the Thermo Engine as the most important project. Half of the manpower and material resources of the Rune Research Institute were concentrated on this project.

Today, his investment has finally paid off.

After watching the 3rd gear test, Renault turned his head to look at Elon with a shocked face: “Elon, what do you think of the Heat Demon engine? Is it necessary for a ship equipped with the Heat Demon engine to install sails?”

Elon froze for a while before reacting. He swallowed hard, his face still filled with shock: “Your Excellency, this is really amazing… The Heat Demon Engine is definitely an epoch-making product…”

He glanced at Renault with some excitement, and said sincerely: “Your wisdom is deeper than the ocean. When I came to watch the test last week, the propeller turned more than a creep…cough cough, not so fast…”

Elon originally wanted to say “worm”, but halfway through, he remembered that this was the site of the Rune Research Institute, and it was too arrogant to slap in the face in front of others.

Glancing awkwardly at Seth, he said: “The Thermo engine can completely replace the sail, but I think it is necessary to reserve the sail. When the wind is enough, the Thermo engine and the sail can make the boat faster. Faster and more fuel-efficient…”

After hearing this, some rune magicians around also nodded and said yes.

Renault just gave a noncommittal “Well” and didn’t say much.

Limited to the times and insights, Elon can only see so much, not only he, but also the rune magicians who stand at the forefront of the times.

But Renault is different, his eyes can easily penetrate the mist of time.

He is the true prophet!

So he knows very well that the cancellation of masts and sails is a general trend of the times, and no one can resist this.

Once Renault officially puts the “Magic Air Cannon” on the development schedule, everyone will realize how obstructive the mast is.

Only by dismantling them can the classic “central axis layout” be realized, and the power of the magic gas cannon can hardly be maximized.

Otherwise, as soon as the turret rotates, the barrel will touch the mast. What about a fart?

Is it possible that the main gun can only shoot at the enemy ship on one side? Isn’t that funny?

As for the magic air gun, there is a precedent for the magic air gun. As a qualified traverser, it is only natural to think of the magic air gun. It is nothing more than a larger caliber, a longer range, and a larger volume.

Well, it is more difficult to research and develop. In addition to the gas cannon itself, it also has to solve the problem of blooming bombs. This is also the biggest problem of gas cannons, and there is no one.

Besides, the Heat Demon engine has come out, the era of the giant ship is just around the corner, how can the artillery be absent?

The giant ship and the artillery, without one of them, can be called artillery giant ship doctrine?

Once the pair of “sister flowers” are gathered together, then the whole dark blue world will be the final word for Master Renault!

Hey, everyone who runs at sea has to pay taxes to the master!

Ten minutes later, the short test was over, and a group of magicians from the Rune Research Institute also sent the Lord Lord away.

The reason why the test time is so short is to show it to the lord.

It is precisely because Lord Lord is coming to watch the test, in order not to delay the “precious” time of this lord, the Rune Research Institute temporarily revised the test plan.

Otherwise, according to the original plan, the three gears must be tested in sequence for at least 24 hours, that is, three days and three nights. Isn’t this delaying your lord from doing important things (playing)?

The time of “three days” was not taken out of the head, it has a rigorous basis.

The Department of Navigation, under the charge of Elon, has done a thorough investigation and found that short-to-medium voyages generally last for 1-3 days.

And this is only the first round, and there will be more trials in the future.

After all, the Heat Demon engine is a brand-new power and a complex system. To ensure its reliability, all the above tests are very necessary.

What if the ship is hurriedly loaded, and something goes wrong in the middle of the road? Could it be that Lord Lord uses [Nan Moment] to tow the boat back?

The blue sky is like washing.

Since entering the storm season, today is a rare day without strong winds. The autumn sun lazily falls on the still green grass.

Although the place is a little remote, the scenery is quite good. The emerald green grass spreads all the way to the distant hills, like an endless green blanket.

There is almost no shrub on the grass. Obviously, this kind of oblong grass looks unremarkable, but in fact it is very domineering. Even the shrubs are squeezed by them and there is no living space.

A yellow four-wheeled all-terrain vehicle drove unhurriedly on the grass, and its wide tires rolled out a road in the grass at a depth of 1 meter.

This car is extremely large, with a length of nearly 6 meters, a width of 2 meters, a full height of 2.5 meters, and a tire diameter of more than 1.5 meters, which is much larger than the SuV on earth.

The body is a frame structure made of steel pipes, and the thick damping springs are directly exposed outside the car. The black tires and bright all-steel wheels are particularly eye-catching.

The only strange thing is the steering wheel. The shape is more similar to the game console handle, but the size is several times larger. Perhaps “direction handle” is a more accurate term.

Even more bizarre, even when the all-terrain vehicle is turning, the handle surface will only emit a slight blue light, but it does not turn.

The blue sky and white clouds, the warm sea breeze, such as grassland, surrounded by mountains and forests in the distance, are picturesque. This is a pretty good holiday destination.

Of course, by the standards of the earth.

But the problem is that this is not the earth, it is a different world!

Another world where crabs and shrimps are as big as a boat and wild beasts walk everywhere, and the other world where the road is basically relied on walking, and the communication is completely dependent on howling.

Suddenly such a modern-style all-terrain vehicle appeared in such a place, as if a serf in the Middle Ages, after doing heavy farm work, suddenly took out a Xiaomi mobile phone and skillfully turned on the king’s pesticide, the painting style collapsed in an instant.

The same thing that doesn’t match this style is the clothes of the three people in the car.

Sitting in the driving position and holding the handle, the teenager wears a decent blue knight costume. You can see exquisite embroidered patterns on the collar and cuffs, giving it a vivid image of a medieval aristocratic teenager.

The passenger seat was a blonde girl with bright eyes and white teeth. She was wearing a purple long-sleeved dress with a light red silk scarf tied around her slender waist, and a short section of it was hanging in the wind.

Sitting in the back seat was a young girl dressed as an ordinary clerk. She looked around curiously, and looked back at the back of the car from time to time.

There are two small black spots in the grass in the distance, trotting along the rut all the way.

The three people in the car are naturally Renault, Angela, and Lena. The two small black spots behind the car are Sansha and Adanis. This cat and dog are not eligible to get in the car, so they have to follow Running behind the car.

Skillfully maneuvering the all-terrain vehicle into a turn, and after going around a steep **** in front, Renault suddenly turned his head and glanced at the girl, and said with some shame: “I think it is necessary for the Government Affairs Office to set up a public holiday. , I don’t know that you have been working continuously for more than half a month…”

The girl leaned lazily on the seat cushion, squinted at the top of the mountain, and said with a chuckle, “I can think about it later…”

Having said that, she couldn’t help but remember the scene an hour ago.

At that time, she was presiding over the meeting in the conference room of the government affairs hall. The door of the conference room suddenly opened automatically. Renault walked into the conference room with a serious expression, and left a word directly.

“Unless the people in the territory are half dead, no one is allowed to step into the Lord’s Mansion today!”

Then he unceremoniously blasted all these civil servants out, frightening these guys who didn’t know the situation.

After hearing the girl’s words, Renault shook his head with a firm voice: “I will sign a document in the name of the lord and officially implement the public holiday system, starting from the month of wind-tracing, and the month of harvest will be over soon… ”

“On public holidays, except for the necessary left-behind personnel, as well as emergency events, everyone else must take a vacation…”

“By the way, there must be a rest system, and the left-behind personnel can be transferred to rest…”

The girl glanced at him helplessly: “Well, how do you plan to arrange public holidays?”

Renault blurted out: “Of course it’s Saturday and Sunday!”

“What is a weekend?”

“Just two days off a week…”

The girl suddenly sat up, got her back off the cushion, turned her head and looked at Renault with a foolish look.

“Absolutely not! How many days off can civil servants a month? If they don’t work, we still have to pay them…”

After a pause, she said in an almost accusing tone: “8 days, at least 8 days’ salary can be earned…”

Seeing a fierce argument broke out between the master and the young lady, Lena in the back row quietly shrank her head.
