On the outskirts of Seine City, by the frozen river, the heavy roar of machinery echoed through the wilderness. As many huge lever gears and conveyor belts were linked together, they made a fierce clanking sound, and the pungent smell of soot and hot water vapor were sprayed into the air.
In the end, it turned into a tall factory building, with a herringbone forging frame more than ten meters high, huge lathes, drilling machines, planers, sanding flywheels and other transmission machinery, cyclically inputting and outputting the surging power on the assembly line. Not far away is a smelting plant with towering towers and dense pipelines.
Pieces of bright red steel castings were transported out on animal-drawn carts, and steamed along the short iron tracks as they were pulled into the tall forging workshop. It turned into a roaring sound on the huge forging table, and the heavy hammer with sparks flying struck the large piece that was being formed;
And when these forged parts of different shapes and sizes finally come out of the steam-driven factory, they are already forged, stamped and polished final products. These finished products are quickly sent to the assembly plant on the other side to be assembled with other sent parts.
The last thing that appeared at the inspection station was a relatively compact expansion-type steam engine that was as big as a house, with various levers, gears, and pipes all over it; the most conspicuous one was the cylindrical boiler that took up more than half of the volume, followed by the Lighted charcoal was thrown in.
As the boiler's blazing fire rises, it eventually turns into a constantly rotating pointer on the external pressure gauge; the moment the operator releases several pressure valves one after another, the steam that continues to circulate and expand in the pipeline also drives The external flywheel lever turns faster and faster.
In the blink of an eye, the surging power sucked up a large amount of water from the test pool through a simple centrifugal pump, and turned it into a large water column suddenly sprayed out from the other end. In this way, the most troublesome problems of deep well leakage and pit pumping in traditional mining areas can basically be solved.
Immediately afterwards, a second assembled steam engine was sent to another experimental platform; here, the external transmission hub of the steam engine was connected to many sets of simple hand-made magnetic coil rotors; as Rotors spin rapidly inside these insulated clay vessels.
After a while, the other ends of the many copper wires connected to the coil rotors began to bloom with dark orchid arcs; then they quickly turned into blazing electric sparks, crackling and striking like miniature lightnings. There are burn marks on the middle wooden board.
After the initial discharge experiment, these pipelines were quickly connected to dozens of large tanks through coil rectifiers. These large tanks are filled with steelmaking waste gas, distilled concentrated sulfuric acid and lead oxide plates as positive and negative electrodes, forming the most primitive lead-acid battery.
With the charging of these cylinder batteries completed, the prerequisites for remote laying of wired telegraphs were also met. Subsequently, in a temporary reception and reception room nearby, the first telegraph signal was sent to the city of Avignon, thousands of miles away.
After waiting for about an hour, a weak electric current feedback came from the huge receiver; even so, everyone present cheered with excitement; because this represented the original unfathomable power and power of God, Lightning has been tamed.
Not only can it be driven by humans, but it can be stored along pipelines and become power and tools that can be used anytime and anywhere; it can also bring news thousands of miles away along with the lines laid in various places. Undoubtedly, it inspired the people who were feeling anxious after the change in the celestial sphere.
The church members who were invited to witness began to praise and pray loudly; praising the Creator for the incredible power and power contained in all things in the world, and thanking the saints walking in the world for leading people to discover and master the means that can benefit the world. Magical mystery.
As the saying goes, "After entering the customs, there will be great scholars who will debate the scriptures for me." After the Free Army took power, the Joint Conference of Bishops' Conferences supported by the new government also had various learned people reinterpreting and explaining relevant doctrines to the people according to various policy needs;
The biggest practical effect of the steam engine and telegraph being put into use is to further impact and disintegrate the core concept of the traditional universal church; in other words, it provides a realistic basis for the ongoing rectification movement of the Kingdom Church and the process of gradual decoupling from the Holy See.
Because as a religious field in the traditional sense, the difference between what can be manifested and what cannot be manifested; with the means of manifesting, the difference between what can be popularized and what cannot be popularized is really too big. This can even be used to undermine the sanctity and piety of Rome in disguised form.
And amid the chaos brought about by these series of changes. Jiang Tian led a small number of his subordinates to the Hezhou Abandoned Palace; as the place where the former royal family was massacred during the Blood Moon Incident, it had been cleared out and simple repairs and maintenance had been carried out.
The several bridges leading from the Hezhou Abandoned Palace to the left and right banks were tightly guarded and blocked by groups of heavily armored knights, blue-clad musketeers and artillery forts. On the only remaining tower within the walls of the abandoned palace in the middle of Hezhou, Jiang Tian hugged Paulina from behind.
Slowly guiding her with her eyes closed, she felt the information coming from the void. That's right, after half a year, the "Dimensional Bubble Module" and the accompanying "Space-time Hole" that fell silent were finally upgraded and automatically linked to Paulina as the anchor of time and space.
Therefore, Jiang Tian can also achieve a certain degree of mental synchronization through physical contact with Paulina; and reconnect with the little round face in another time and space and the Haidong regime to which she belongs. Therefore, it is like a miracle reappearing, and the two worlds are exchanged intermittently.
As the empty ground was cleared and flattened, a large number of primary industrial products such as entire steam engines, forging machines, lathes, and refined steel plates continued to disappear out of thin air; as well as equipment including cannons and muskets; at the other end, A lot of copper ingots, silver bars and grain dropped out.
However, this exchange between the two worlds in the void only lasted for half an hour, and Paulina was already pale and mentally exhausted. We can only return the dominance of subsequent void exchanges to Jiang Tian himself before the blackout completely passes.
Of course, this is just a test of the upgraded "dimensional bubble module" and the accompanying "space-time hole". Test the upper limit of what can be achieved after Jiang Tian leaves this world and only relies on Paulina to communicate with the time and space where the little round face is.
According to the evaluation of the current test data, the upper limit of consumption of Paulina's own spirit can only reach the exchange of items across time and space of five to six hundred cubic units, or a weight of about two thousand tons; then, it is probably necessary to rest. It takes a long time to recover.
Despite this, Jiang Tian was quite satisfied; in this way, after he left, both Little Round Face and Paulina had a secret trump card to help each other. Perhaps these material exchanges can only be regarded as slightly better than nothing in normal times, but they can also be used to show the saints when necessary.
The uses that can be put to it are not only comparable to the value of the material itself. What's more, the upgraded "Dimensional Bubble Module" not only greatly expands the internal space, but can also try to store living creatures; it only needs to consume energy to ensure the status of living creatures.
And it must be when the other party has a lower mind or is not resistant at all. For example, Jiang Tian tried to absorb the little blood demon Theresa into the "dimensional bubble" space, but failed. However, the little humanoid blood bird that was her pet succeeded unexpectedly.
The space-time hole can also consume some additional energy to pass through some living creatures; but it seems that due to the potential impact of space-time transportation, the lower reptiles sent from the opposite side are okay, and the larger mammals have varying degrees of violence and distortion. Questions like that.
After a while, Paulina slowly woke up in Jiang Tian's arms, looked at him with mixed emotions in her amber eyes and said: "So, is this your apostle in other worlds? I will definitely protect him. You left all this behind and prayed humbly day and night for your return.”
"If you say this, I feel more at ease." Jiang Tian smiled slightly: "However, you still have to take care of yourself, because you are my only connection in this world; of course, I have left you the country Development regulations and roadmaps for each stage.”
"As long as you generally follow this direction, there won't be much problem. If you have any questions or confusion in your daily life, you can also contact the person in the other world. She also rules a country with tens of millions of people, facing All sorts of intricate issues and situations.”
"I believe you will have many common topics and areas where you can communicate and complement each other for win-win and mutual benefit; but one thing will never change. Strengthen domestic mining and industrial production, develop commerce and trade, and expand overseas markets and resources. Be the biggest advantage in the future.”
"And paying attention to the development of the power of steel and gunpowder will be the biggest way to break the shackles of traditional bloodlines and the monopoly of knowledge, so that the vast majority of ordinary people can also fight and suppress the mystery. Therefore, it is necessary to rely on the church's The strength must also be balanced.”
"Mystery has its own rise and fall like a rising tide. It cannot be relied on or suppressed blindly; however, as long as we can constantly pursue new knowledge and breakthroughs in productivity, we can gain and occupy a long-lasting position among the continental countries. advantages and advantages.”
】
An hour later, as the bells rang throughout the city, the vast majority of people who walked out of their homes and stood on the streets couldn't help but look in the direction of the Hezhou Abandoned Palace, and without exception, they knelt down and prayed. Because, there rose a bright light that shot into the sky.
