Darren's words made the townspeople present feel itchy, but there was nothing they could do. They could only speculate on whether this airship could fly, how long it could fly, and whether it would not be able to lift off like the previous aircraft. Falling to the ground after reaching high altitude...
The professors and students of Ieta College are also gathering in the center of the square at this moment, staring at the huge airship parked in the center of the square.
Even Hellram couldn't help but be surprised by its hugeness. After a pause, he turned his head to look at Linn and spoke. "What an exquisite alchemical creation. I heard that this is your handiwork, Professor Lin En?"
Linn explained with a smile. "I only provided a drawing. The production process of the airship was completed by Lydia and the others. It should be said that this airship was built by us together."
Although Lin En said this, Hellram and others knew that production was only secondary. The design principle of any alchemical creation was the most important!
"Professor Linn, since you call this thing an airship, are you really planning to let it fly? How much magic power will this consume?" Kevin asked curiously.
The bigger and heavier the object, the harder it is to fly into the sky. This is almost an iron rule. If you want to send such a huge alchemy instrument to the sky, you will consume countless magic powers.
"I think you're mistaken. It's not magic to make this thing fly!" Linn shook his head.
Not magic? Hearing this, the professors and students present were stunned for a moment. Could this thing be able to fly on its own?
"Could this be the aircraft you mentioned last time with a different power source and a redesigned structure?" Herram immediately thought of what Lin En said when he first crossed the sea to the land of wizards. He was indeed not on the airship. Feel any magic fluctuations.
"No, if I must say it, this airship uses another flight method." Linn thought for a while and replied.
Hellram frowned, thinking about what the so-called other method meant, and then asked with interest.
"Then how long do you think it can stay in the sky? Ten minutes? One hour?"
"I think it's longer than any number you think. How long it can fly just depends on how long Lydia wants to stay in the sky..." Lynn replied with a smile.
After hearing this, Phillip and others immediately lost their composure. Doesn't this mean that if Lydia doesn't want to come down, she can keep flying in the sky?
This doesn't make sense, considering that flying is a feat only a few wizards can accomplish...
But before anyone could refute, a voice sounded from behind.
"You mean this airship can continue to stay in the air without consuming any energy? This is impossible and completely inconsistent with the law of conservation of magic!"
Lin En looked back in surprise, and then saw two gorgeously dressed wizards walking towards this side.
"This is Mr. Tick, a member of the Wizards' Council..." Philip hurriedly introduced to Linn, his tone a little more respectful. Although Tick was a three-ring wizard like him, he had a very high level of alchemy. , whose status in the land of wizards is not much lower than that of ordinary great wizards.
"As for the other one..." Phillip looked hesitant.
"My name is Luo Er! I am the commissioner sent by "Magic Weekly"." Luo Er politely replied.
"Hello, Mr. Tik, Mr. Rohr." Linn nodded. He was surprisingly familiar with the name Tik. The one-ring magic he had learned was called [Tik's Farsightedness]. !
"Let's be less polite. You haven't answered my question just now..." Tik didn't mean to chat at all, and asked eagerly.
"If it just means floating, of course there is no need to consume additional energy." Linn explained and continued. "As for the principle, I can only say..."
"This is a trade secret!"
The expression on Tik's face paused immediately, and then turned into a look of helplessness. As an alchemist, he certainly knew that there were some things that he shouldn't ask.
"Professor Linn, the inspection work has been completed, and the Overlook can take off at any time!" Lydia trotted over and made a nautical military salute, saying loudly.
"Then we can start now!" Linn said, waving his hands.
After receiving the approval, Lydia immediately greeted Darren and others excitedly, began to pour hydrogen into the airship's auxiliary airbag, and tied a strong rope to several pillars in the square to prevent it from flying away early. .
The airbags above the airship look integrated, but in fact they are divided into two main and auxiliary airbags.
When only the main airbag is filled with hydrogen, the lift the airship receives is slightly less than gravity and is at a critical point. Therefore, as long as the auxiliary airbag is also filled with hydrogen, it can fly directly.
When landing, you need to reverse the situation and open the auxiliary air bag to let the air flow in, and the airship will fall slowly.
As for why it is hydrogen rather than the safer helium, of course it is because the former is easier to obtain and can be separated directly from water.
The most indispensable thing in Ieta Harbor is water!
While Darren and others were injecting gas into the auxiliary airbag, Lydia had already climbed up the ladder into the cabin of the airship, pulled up the alchemy goggles on her head, and put her hands on the big steering wheel, as if she were on a ship. He looked very tall, and his face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.
Everyone in the square focused their attention. As more and more hydrogen gas was filled in the auxiliary airbag, the huge airship began to shake slowly and levitate little by little.
"It's great, it can really fly!" "Really, our efforts have not been in vain..."
Seeing this scene, several halflings hugged each other excitedly. They had been working day and night for the past half month just for this day!
"The Overlook takes off!" Lydia swung her knife to cut off the rope connecting the airship to the column, shouting loudly.
In the eyes of countless people who were either excited or shocked, the behemoth in front of them quickly broke away from the shackles of gravity and flew straight into the sky!
"Amazing!" Herram said with emotion as he stared at the airship floating further and further in the sky.
Rolle on the side quickly took out his quill, used magic power as ink, and quickly drew everything he saw.
This is definitely a scene worth remembering forever in the history of magic!
A halfling who didn't know any magic flew into the sky on a huge airship that was taller than two buildings!
