Chapter 682 Mechanical changes
Regarding the out-of-control collision of the steam train, it was said by the maintenance craftsman who fled to Tub Town after being drunk. Not many people believed his words, because if there was such a big accident, it would definitely be published in the newspaper.
newspaper, but newspapers in the past published similar news, so most people thought he was just talking drunkenly.
However, some people seem to have heard similar rumors, so they think what he said may be true, but they are skeptical about what he said about the combination of certain parts that can produce power far beyond the limit, thinking that this is just this.
A repairman found an excuse for his negligence.
The craftsman's words only caused a small stir in the noisy tavern, and were buried by other topics. Compared with train accidents, people in the tavern like to talk about monsters that suddenly appear in the world.
However, after hearing what the maintenance craftsman said, Leo couldn't help but think of Hushang Town, because the energy efficiency of the steam machinery in Hushang Town far exceeded that of the same steam machinery in the Vinyl World.
In terms of energy efficiency, this kind of improvement is not just a tiny bit, but several times or even tens of times higher.
The reason why Leo had this association was not only because of the experience of this maintenance craftsman, but also because of the rumors he had heard before about ordinary people's army being able to deal with out-of-control Familia.
It is not correct to say that it is a rumor, because many people in the tavern have witnessed the government troops using steam crossbows to kill various giant monsters with indescribable shapes and sizes as big as houses. According to their descriptions, those single
The steam engine crossbow assembled by the soldiers was incredibly powerful, and it shot through the monster's body easily. Others felt that it was not a steam engine crossbow, but a steam engine cannon on a battleship.
Although the strength of the Familia will vary greatly due to different prerequisites such as bloodline, degree of divine power infection, etc., even the weakest Familia is stronger than ordinary people in terms of physical self-healing, strength, speed, and combat instincts.
Humanity has surpassed many, and although the out-of-control Familia have lost their minds, they have survived several times or even ten times the increase in strength. Logically speaking, this is no longer something that ordinary people's weapons can handle.
But the current situation is that ordinary people can solve the problem of the out-of-control Familia just by relying on weapons such as steam-powered crossbows. If the power source of the current out-of-control Familia is not much smaller than those of the out-of-control Familia in the past, then the only choice is the steam-powered crossbow.
The power has been increased more than a little.
This made Leo couldn't help but think that as the world began to change and the gods gradually returned, the steam machinery that appeared after the gods disappeared might also change and become like the town on the lake. The same machinery could produce extraordinary things.
energy efficiency.
Thinking of this, Leo no longer wanted to stay in the tavern. He left the tavern, asked the locals about it, and then came to a small workshop outside the town that sold mechanical parts.
Because there are not many machines in Bucket Town, this small workshop sells very few types of parts. However, these parts are enough for Leo to use. After spending some money and buying dozens of parts, he carried a large
Bao returned to the camp outside the town and returned to his pack car tent.
Before it got dark, Leo was in the tent, using existing mechanical parts and some wood to assemble a simple clockwork doll.
This doll is not assembled according to the mechanical principles of the current Velen world, but according to the mechanical principles of Hushang Town.
There are many methods of manufacturing machinery in Hushang Town, but there is only one fundamental principle, that is, the more complex the machinery, the more parts such as gears, springs, bearings, etc., the greater the energy efficiency produced. It seems that the power generated by these parts will increase with time.
As the number increases, it keeps adding up.
Although this sounds simple, it is very complicated in practice, because as the number of parts increases, each time a new part is added, the entire mechanical design will need to be fundamentally modified, and because the energy efficiency generated by the parts is different,
Then maintaining the balanced operation of mechanical energy efficiency becomes a fatal problem. If the energy efficiency of the parts is not balanced, then there will be repulsion between the parts, which will eventually cause the entire machine to disintegrate by itself, or even cause a burst.
If the mechanical doll made by Leo followed the vinylon world's method of simplifying parts, it would only need seven parts at most to assemble it. However, he redesigned the mechanical structure and finally used forty-seven parts to assemble the doll.
Doll.
As the sky darkened, a bonfire was lit in the camp. Leo left the camp alone carrying the half-human-tall doll, and walked quickly to a desolate place five or six miles away.
In front of the rocky beach.
He used his mental net to carefully check his surroundings, and after finding that there were no other people or unusual conditions, he placed the puppet in his hand on the ground, and then twisted the wooden strings behind him.
Although it is called a doll, it is actually a beast-shaped doll without a head, lying on all fours. When Leo wound up the clockwork and put the beast-shaped doll on the ground, the doll's limbs aligned according to the
The machine was swinging at an extremely fast speed, causing the body to rush out in advance. The speed was so fast that the naked eye could only see an illusory shadow.
Because there is no control device, the puppet can only keep rushing forward. Even if there is a huge boulder in front of it, it does not avoid it. It is directly installed on it. The wooden body is immediately broken into pieces, and the mechanical parts assembled inside the body are also on the outside.
It was scattered under the impact of the two forces inside and outside, and most of the parts were even damaged by this force.
However, the giant rock was also damaged. The huge force directly knocked the giant rock forward for more than ten meters before it stopped. The impact place has been shattered into a crater. It can be seen from the force of the impact of the doll just now.
How big.
Although several hours of meticulous production were ruined, Leo didn't care about it because the doll had completed its mission. Leo was sure of one thing, that is, the mutation had caused
The steam machinery in the Velen world is changing towards Hushang Town.
According to the current changing trend, I believe that it won’t be long before the world of Velen will be able to create giant mechanical devices like the mechanical fortress of Hushang Town. With these powerful mechanical devices, even if we encounter those out-of-control families and the evil forces of the underground world, we will have a
The power of war, of course, is only limited to pure strength, not the evil existence on the mysterious side.
However, this matter is not a happy thing in Leo's opinion, because now even the laws of steam machinery have begun to change in the direction of Hushang Town, then the thick fog wrapping around Hushang Town will
Won't it appear?
In other words, thick fog has already appeared, such as thick fog on the ocean, but it has not spread to the land.
Thinking of this, Leo's mood became a little heavy.
Leo did not pick up the scattered parts and puppet fragments on the ground, but turned around and left the rocky beach and returned to the camp.
The caravan crossed the snow-capped mountains in the rain, snow and strong winds, and saw the shocking scene on the top of the snow-capped mountains. They were exhausted both mentally and physically. After dinner, they rested early with only a few guards.
On night watch.
Compared with the tranquility of the camp, the barrel town is very lively after dark. Almost all the people who come here to take refuge bring all their belongings with them, but there are few places to spend money here. How can the pub be said to be so popular?
It was the only place where they could spend money, so those who fled would hang out in pubs whenever they had time, not only to pass the time, but also to borrow alcohol and temporarily forget their external worries.
However, these people drinking in the pub did not know that they were being targeted, and to be precise, they were not considered human beings.
"Why don't you do something? I can't help it anymore!" In the corner of the tavern, among the three weirdos who wrapped themselves tightly, a tall and thin weirdo lowered his head slightly and spoke in a low and hoarse voice.
The voice asked.
"Shut up, if you hadn't held back, would we have escaped here?" The thinnest man next to him glared at his companion coldly, gritted his teeth and said, "If you dare to do this next time,
If you talk nonsense, I will eat you to prevent you, an idiot, from causing any more trouble."
Although this man was the smallest and looked the weakest, he seemed to have great intimidation. After saying these threatening words, not only did the tall and thin man immediately shut his mouth, but there was also no one beside him.
The other thin man who spoke also looked like he was sitting upright.
In fact, although the thin man was lecturing his companions, in his heart he was salivating over the drunken refugees and locals in the tavern.
Compared to his two companions, he awakened earlier and was exposed to the conditions in the underground world. He knew the identity of his Familia and also had some understanding of the various situations of the Familia, such as how the Familia used the power to enhance themselves, such as the Familia.
What are the enemies and so on.
Similarly, he also knew very well that once the family members tasted the taste of human flesh, they would never be able to get rid of their desire for human flesh.
For a long time in the past, he has been hiding himself, restraining himself, and living like an ordinary person.
But that night, his body suddenly developed a high temperature. He was unable to resist and fainted instantly. When he woke up from the coma, it was already the morning of the next day, and he was lying in ragged clothes on the outskirts of the country.
The ground on the ground was surrounded by broken corpses. There were still many bite marks on these corpses, and there was a strong smell of blood inside.
When he saw the stumps and broken arms around him, he almost effortlessly recalled what happened after he fell into coma. He saw how he turned into a monster, how he massacred the people in the village, and finally how he was eaten.
The people he killed.
Originally, he thought he would feel disgusted when recalling the experience of cannibalism, but in fact, what he felt was hunger and the deliciousness of human flesh. So when the hunger reached its peak, he once again picked up the broken limbs and gnawed around them.
stand up.
After a good meal, he immediately left the suburbs and walked north along the road, because he knew that it would not be long before churches, night watchmen, bounty hunters and other organizations specializing in hunting the Familia would appear, and with his power
It is absolutely impossible to defeat these bounty hunters who hunt the family members all year round. In the end, he is likely to become a bounty hunter in exchange for trophies for profit.
On the way to escape, he soon met two more Familia who were being chased by the army. He rescued these two Familia.
This is not because he is kind-hearted, but because if he encounters an irresistible danger, he can use these two family members as bait to block the enemy, and then escape alone.
However, he did not expect that the two guys he rescued were two big troubles. When these two family members lost control, they actually ate a very prestigious general of the Royal Government Army. Only then were they killed by the Royal Government Army.
Send special troops to hunt down.
Now he has become a wanted person because he saved these two guys.
After that, the three of them fled all the way. Their escape originally went smoothly, relying on their own abilities to avoid the pursuing army. However, one of the family members could not resist the urge to eat people and their whereabouts were exposed. In the end, they went through many hardships.
Kucai was able to escape to the border town of Tongzhen.
So when he thought of the suffering he went through after rescuing these two Familia, this skinny little Familia couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.
"Boss, we are actually here now. We will cross the Quinsis Snow Mountain at dawn tomorrow and go to the Savile Kingdom. There is no need to worry about the wolf dogs following us." The fat family member sitting next to him was careful.
muttered.
The skinny little family member was silent for a moment, shook his head, and said: "I always feel that there is some danger. Don't do anything today. I will go back and rest. I will leave immediately when it gets up tomorrow."
After making the decision, the skinny little family member said nothing more. They suppressed the strong desire for human flesh in their hearts, stood up, and walked out of the tavern.
The other two Familia looked at the thin little Familia with great dissatisfaction, and their eyes were full of malice, but in the end they suppressed their malice towards the thin Familia, stood up one after another, and looked at the people in the tavern with longing.
, then looked at each other, seemed to exchange some information, then nodded slightly, and quickly walked out of the tavern.
Not long after the three family members left the tavern, the two night watchmen sitting upstairs also stood up and followed them out.
The two night watchmen were very capable of following, and the three family members in front didn't notice anyone following them at all, and went straight back to the hotel room they booked.
The two night watchmen did not follow, but each guarded a diagonal position in the hotel. Both of them could see the surroundings of the hotel clearly. As long as someone came out, it would be impossible to escape their surveillance.
As time passed, it entered the middle of the night, and the people in the tavern were all drunk. Then they left the tavern one after another, and most of them walked towards the newly built residential area on the edge of the town, and just
Chapter completed!
