Today is the first Muggle test of the Tornado 1 flight suit.
After a series of coordination, it was decided to place the test site at the Heavy Industry, and invited several visiting professors, including Olan, to visit... It was actually a site adjusted for guest professors and confidentiality-related issues.
Oran frowned as he looked at the big guys at the scene.
"Miss Caroline, how come this thing you made looks a bit like the Church of Light in the legendary story? And please allow me to say, it's a bit unsightly."
The things placed on the edge of the field were very bloated, and it felt like several wine barrels stacked horizontally and vertically.
Caroline explained next to him: "Perhaps we reach the same goal through different paths. This equipment must take into account the operation, reconnaissance and combat needs of non-magic personnel. It can only be so large, otherwise the stability and protective power of the magic array will not be achieved." Requirements. In terms of styling, the main reason is to rush for time. The shell of this shape is faster to process and can be formed in one go. "
Caroline has received internal education and will use ordinary people when speaking, while Oran will directly use customary words: "Muggle operation? How to achieve it?"
Mages use magic power to control their flight status, and some amateurs also superimpose other spells. Obviously, this is not something Muggles can do.
"You'll find out later."
Everyone didn't wait long, and soon someone escorted a Night Clan person to the scene.
The tester got into the equipment with the help of others and made preparations.
This set of objects suspected of being powered armor is 2.7 meters tall, which is about the same as a taller blade. The prototype looks bulkier.
Putting a 1.7-meter-tall person into a 2.7-meter human-shaped shell cannot use joints to drive the corresponding joints. After all, the whole person has just reached the hip axis.
Therefore, he adopted a straddle-sitting position, with his feet on the human-shaped metal knob's thigh, and his knees and below were all magic devices. The hand part is not directly connected to the device arm, because the gap in shoulder width is too big, and it may not be possible to reach the elbow when posing a person in a large font.
Before taking the field, the testers had already undergone a short period of ground acclimatization in the institute.
The training time and intensity may not be enough to form instinct, but considering that there are still many changes to be made after the prototype, there is no need to train to that level, and there are many magicians at the test site, so it will not really break people.
Several mages surrounded the machine to check the feedback of the magic circuit. After struggling for more than ten minutes, they removed the ladder and other tools and got out of the way.
The tester started each magic array according to the process inside, and a big lump floated up.
The operation method draws on the comprehensive flight method created by an ancient mage. This is an application method that uses a variety of spells to achieve free flight. It is more suitable for third- and fourth-ring mages who lack magic power. The characteristics are a bit like controlling reflexes with hands and feet. It is easier to understand the direction of push as if there are jets of water on the palms and soles of the feet.
Magic actually does not have a large enough jet. This method of limb control actually uses magic to directly control the loss.
Probably because it was the first time to go to heaven, the tester seemed to be a little in a hurry, causing the humanoid equipment to move around with its hands and feet, making all the visiting professors sweat.
"Is this okay?"
"I heard there's still a fight? Don't fall down first."
The visiting professors are basically all fourth-level ones, and there are two fifth-level ones. Because learning magic requires a lot of time, they have been separated from ordinary people for too long, and they are really not optimistic about the air control ability of Muggles.
However, after the on-site test machine almost stalled several times, the situation gradually stabilized.
In about ten minutes, the test machine was able to hover stably at a height of twenty meters.
The mages and testers on the ground communicated with each other through loud roars, preparing to move directly to the next stage of the slow flight test.
Caroline heard the mage yelling and asked, pretending to be unintentional: "Mr. Oran, how difficult do you think it is to use magic to achieve long-distance communication?"
Because the mage was really out of his mind when he yelled there, Oran didn't do what he thought and replied: "It's almost impossible."
"The Beauty of the Sun and the Moon"
Caroline did not rush to ask, and talked about the institute's research on this aspect: "We have found through research that as the distance increases during the transmission process of magic signals and electrical signals, the signal clarity attenuates somewhat abnormally, and the teacher said The situation is completely different.”
"teacher?"
"You might get a chance to see it too."
Olan was still yelling when he saw the scene, and told a secret: "Actually, it was not like this a long time ago. Magic communication devices existed in ancient times, and there were even mages who specialized in researching and producing these things. I don't know what happened later. Communication is becoming more and more difficult, and my teacher said that since the last Three Realms War, there has been no way to use magic to transmit sounds."
Olan can know the time point of change naturally because of his "old" teacher.
As he said that, Olan opened his secret space and took out something the size of a makeup box to show to Caroline: "This is the communicator made by the teacher. It can only receive simple signals within a radius of fifteen kilometers. If you want to make a call by making a 'di-di-di' sound, the two must be close to each other within three kilometers, which basically has no practical value."
Caroline's eyes lit up: "No, I think it's very valuable. Sometimes three kilometers is enough to make the difference between life and death. Can you lend me this?"
Olan looked at the small box in his hand, thought for a moment, then reached out and handed it over.
There are no fools among magicians. Although no one said it clearly, it can be seen from the magic weapons of the city defense army that the main target of the research bureau is most likely the garrison.
A box that can effectively communicate within three kilometers is only needed by Muggles.
Olan had no opinion on this, and even felt that he should show some support.
In fact, when Teacher Liv came to see him, she sneaked into the northern military control zone, so Oran now also knows that most of the garrison troops are deployed in the northern zone to resist the demons.
Although Teacher Liv has never seen a battle, judging from the number of demons she described, it is impossible for both sides to treat each other peacefully.
The situation where the military protects the people too much is probably only seen in the territory of the Phoenix King.
Regardless of the big collision or the demon clan, so far, the Phoenix King and his subjects have done better than any force in the history books. Even if we don't have high hopes, we still hope that such a force can survive the cold winter of the Three Realms War.
Caroline didn't mention it again after getting the communication props, and continued to watch the test flight.
The research institute got the task of communication props earlier than the aircraft. It wasn't long after the opening of the Heavy Industry Machinery Exhibition Hall, but the progress was too slow.
There is no need to follow these instructions. The transportation team specially left a box of things for the institute. Most of them are walkie-talkies. They can be used as long as the battery fluid is cleaned and then connected to the power.
But the effect is very poor. There is no need to calculate the distance, just a few walls apart. The call distance limit shown on the label is 20 kilometers, which is obviously problematic.
Later, it was changed to a ground experiment, which was similar to a Morse code transmitter. It also had problems. It could send a signal, but the signal attenuation was extremely unexpected.
So to rule out all possibilities, the only possibility is that there is a problem with the electromagnetic state in the penal colony, perhaps due to differences in core physical rules, but the institute is far from reaching the level of studying particle science.
It was impossible to follow the instructions, so I tried using magic instead. However, due to their backgrounds, no one had ever been exposed to magic communication equipment. They started from scratch, and many difficulties arose in the process.
Judging from the situation provided by Olan, magic communication probably has a relatively large bottleneck.
But no matter what, let’s solve the local communication first.
