Chapter 721 Dragoon Type I

Gawain reacted for two seconds before finally showing an uncontrollable smile of joy.

Amber was still stroking happily a second ago, but she stopped in a daze after seeing Gawain's expression.

She had rarely seen Gawain be so undisguised about his emotions, and rarely seen the latter smiling so happily.

He never smiled like this when he was crowned.

Is "aircraft" such an important thing?

"Let's go take a look together," Gawain pulled Amber over and strode towards the door, "It's at the eastern suburbs test site, right?"

" Oh, oh right... Hey, let go, I will walk by myself, don't pull me... don't carry me... don't put me under your arm again! I will walk by myself..."

...

At the suburban test site, the "Dragoon" that successfully completed its first flight experiment had already landed smoothly on the open ground. A large group of technicians were busy surrounding the flying machine, fixing every one of it. Parts were inspected over and over again. Rebecca, as the general person in charge of the project, also went into battle personally. She held the tools in her hands and circled the mechanical cabin. There were several streaks of oil on her face and her clothes were stained, but she smiled brighter than everyone present. Brilliant - as happy as a child.

Maggie stood quietly, looking at the busy and joyful scene in front of her. Her eyes would fall on Rebecca from time to time - over the years, Maggie had seen all kinds of things. A human noble, but a "princess" like Rebecca was truly the only one she had ever seen.

"Perfect, perfect, there is no problem at all! No breakage, no falling off, no overheating, none of the problems that have appeared before..." A magic technician started from the connection of the dragon wing servo. The axis position jumped down, with excitement on his face, "The new structure works!"

"That's right!" Rebecca also emerged from under the main vertebral body of the aircraft, with bright eyes, " It’s not in vain that we tested it thousands of times...”

Maggie knew that the thousands of tests Rebecca mentioned were not all actual test flights, and most of them were completed in the Origin Laboratory. ——But although it is a simulated environment, the hard work put in by everyone in the team is real.

At this moment of transformation, Rebecca had already arrived in front of Maggie. She smiled like a flower: "Hey, hey, Maggie, how does it feel to fly?"

Maggie was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head a little sluggishly, and said politely: "It feels very...good, Your Highness."

She has always been uncomfortable with the fact that this princess is not aristocratic at all. The way she behaves, but no matter what, she ultimately represents the face of the Duke of the North, and she still has to work hard to be polite and considerate.

"Don't be so tense all the time. We are not in the city, and Aunt Hetty and the ancestors can't see you. It's okay to relax a little," Rebecca patted Ma carelessly. After slapping Ji's shoulder, she said "Oh" belatedly. She quickly pulled her hand back and looked at it.Looking at the oil on his hands, he wiped it hard on his robe, then patted Maggie on the other shoulder, "There are no titles in the laboratory. This is what we agreed from the beginning."

Rebecca couldn't help but after hearing this He puffed up his mouth and said: "Why do you sound like my aunt? Let me tell you, it's easy to get old if you are always tight like this. My aunt is usually too tight, and the dark circles under her eyes are getting heavier day by day. There are also ancestors , so serious all day long, I even saw his wrinkles..."

Maggie looked up again, wisely chose to close her mouth, and silently stepped aside.

Several technicians around also looked up and looked behind Rebecca, each with a strange expression, and backed away slightly in tacit agreement.

Rebecca looked around, felt the atmosphere, thought for a while, and came to the conclusion——

Oh my god, I’m cold.

The experienced Princess knew what to do without being reminded. She wiped both hands on her outer robe, then hugged her head and slowly squatted down: "Can you not do this this time?" Head on..."

As soon as Rebecca squatted halfway, a strong hand stretched out from behind and lifted her up by the collar: "Stop squatting, Hetty is not here"< /p>

When Rebecca heard Gawain's voice, she quickly turned around and took a look while being held by the collar. As a result, she saw the helpless ancestor and Amber who was following the ancestor - just Of them both, Aunt Hetty was not there.

Her expression that had just restrained suddenly became bright again: "Master Ancestor, you are here!!"

Master Ancestor has always doted on her, although she usually looks serious. , but he is different from his aunt's seriousness - he will not hit himself on the head, and Rebecca is very clear about this.

Ever since she was a child, she has been very optimistic. This optimism is mainly reflected in her ability to find the sunshine on her own and then shine on her own.

Gawain actually wanted to hit this girl on the head. After all, as far as he knew, Rebecca had not been beaten for three days. Based on experience, he judged that this stupid roe deer's current state of mind should be wandering around. It was between going to the house and setting fire to the mountain, but before that, his attention had already fallen on the strange-looking machine next to him.

He stared for a long time at the device that was completely different from the "aircraft" in his memory from its shape to its principle. His thoughts were ups and downs in his heart, and he said softly after a long time: "This is our aircraft..."< /p>

It’s really different, completely different.

It is an inverted cone-shaped device similar to a top, with a main body diameter of about two to three meters. A metal ring engraved with runes floats on the lower part of the cone - that ring should be the reverse cone-shaped device. The gravity ring, which continuously floats at the root of the vertebral body through a long-lasting force field, controls the lifting and gravity balance of the entire device, while the sides and top of the device are respectivelyWith its half-moon-shaped main wing and servo wing imitating a dragon's wing, it looks like a giant, upright steel insect. It's a bit weird, but full of the unique beauty of the magic industry.

Gawain couldn't see any trace of "airplane" on it.

After he completely let go of his experience on Earth and only told the technical team the application requirements and some performance characteristics, Rebecca led the magic technicians to create it based on the technical foundation and logic of this world. aircraft coming out.

A bold attempt, and the result proved what Gawain had been thinking all along: the magical world’s own technical route is the most suitable technical route here.

It’s not that he hasn’t thought about bringing airplanes from Earth to this world. After all, although many of the rules of this world are very different from those of Earth, at least this world also has wind and birds, which means Although it was possible to realize an aircraft based on aerodynamics, he did not do so in the end.

Because he does not know everything. Even with enhanced memory ability and vast "miscellaneous knowledge", he still has areas in which he is not good at, and aircraft manufacturing is undoubtedly one of them.

In the early stages, some simple machines may still be put together based on the miscellaneous knowledge in the mind, but the aircraft is an overly professional thing, and Gawain knows that the rough sketches he can recall may be He can only mislead his technical staff - not to mention that he must face the fact that due to the unique elemental spells, this world's technical foundation in the field of aerodynamics is completely blank, but here there is a ready-made anti-gravity technical route.

Instead of drawing a bunch of sketches full of errors by yourself, and then asking the technicians to light up a technology tree from scratch on this basis, it is better to let them deduce based on the existing technologies in the world. and transformation - after all, the world itself has flying units such as Griffin Knights and Giant Eagle Knights, and there are even more powerful mages who can fly directly in the air. Mortals are not blank in the sky. Under this premise, even if he It took several years to build a primitive aircraft based on aerodynamics, but I am afraid that it cannot compete with the existing air units in the world. It is better to try boldly and let Rebecca and her technical team do it. Directly challenge mature anti-gravity air combat platforms.

The result of this bold attempt is the strange-looking "Dragoon" in front of us, but its performance is definitely beyond that of Earth's early aircraft.

Relying on anti-gravity vertical take-off and landing, it is highly flexible and maneuverable. It can engage in aerial combat with well-trained griffin knights and achieve suppression. It uses dragon wing runes to perform "magic wave drive" and has a maximum speed exceeding that of elves. The giant eagle of the tribe, at the same time, the wind runes all over the vertebral body shell and the rune set of the dragon wings themselves also solved the wind resistance problem caused by its weird shape. If advanced magical weapons and communication devices are added , it will undoubtedly become the most advanced and powerful air power of this era.

WhenOf course, it definitely still has many shortcomings. As a brand-new product, and it is currently the most complex and advanced technological product, it still needs to undergo a lot of testing, and it will take some time before mass production, but in any case, this The road has finally been proven to be feasible.

The structure of this aircraft will become the cornerstone of Cecil’s series of flight technologies in the future, and the experience it has accumulated may benefit hundreds of years...

“Yes, this This is the aircraft we built..." Rebecca raised her head with a proud smile on her face, "It took a lot of effort!"

Then she said: "Ancestor, you Do you want to give it a formal name? After all, 'Dragoon' is just a code name..."

"The official name is just Dragoon. I think the code name itself is vivid and nice enough. Gawain laughed, "With reference to the Warhammer tank, this type of anti-gravity aircraft is named Dragoon Type I." At this point, his heart suddenly moved and he couldn't help but look at it. Maggie stood quietly next to her.

"Speaking of which, as a dragon, do you have any thoughts on the name 'Dragoon'?"

Maggie thought for a moment in confusion and shook her head: "I don't have any idea...Why do you ask, Your Majesty?"

"I'm just worried that this name will displease the Dragon Clan," Gawain laughed a little awkwardly, "When we decided on the code name before, I didn’t think much about it, and I didn’t ask for your opinion. I suddenly felt something was wrong. Don’t you dragons think this word is offensive? After all, it implies the meaning of using a dragon as a mount..."

“Your Majesty, I don’t know much about what the dragons of Tallond would think, but as far as I know, humans on the continent have continued to play important roles in dragons in various epic stories and mythical tales. For hundreds of years or more, and most of the time this important role is not very bright - the dragon robs the castle, kidnaps the princess, embezzles property, threatens the kingdom, brave adventurers and knights fight off the dragon, occupy Dragon Cave, and even turned dragons into mounts. After so many years, have you seen those bards and family members who made up stories being hunted down by people sent by Tallond or the Holy Dragon Principality? ”

"Dragon, doesn't care about human stories, because no matter how long human stories are spread, they will soon be gone with the wind, even if they are saints The 'Deteriorated Dragonborn' in the Dragon Kingdom who have relatively short lifespans also have enough time to watch even the most exciting legends of mankind turn to dust," Maggie said with a hint of a smile, but then added, "Of course, The return of the 'protagonist' of the story to the historical stage like you is probably a surprise to Long..."

Gowen: "..."

It is indeed quite unexpected. , the guys in the Mithril Treasure House who made their fortune by misappropriating the commissioned items were in a state of confusion because of a client like him who had come back from the dead.After a while, it was said that not only were thousands of graves dug in a month, but hundreds of souls were also summoned...

Maggie also seemed to find this topic a bit strange, and changed it rather abruptly. Back: "So in general, when it comes to these 'trivial offenses', the dragon's attitude will be far more free and easy than you think. Of course, I am only starting from my own knowledge. As for the 'orthodox people' in Tallond 'What will the dragons think after seeing the 'Dragon Cavalry'... I'm afraid only the 'senior agent' who is familiar with you can give the answer."

Gawain couldn't help but wonder. The figure of Mylittlepony emerged.

I don’t know what the blue dragon from the dragon kingdom would think after learning that humans imitated the principles of dragon wings and created an aircraft called "Dragoon".

I don’t even know how Melita would respond if I asked her if the Dragon Clan would allow people to ride on her - would she get furious, or would she make a lot of sense?

Gao Wen thought carefully for a long time, and suddenly felt that the answer was probably not "seven yuan to start, five hundred for the day, bridge toll, night train extra money"...
