Ultra: Dark Shadow Mage, Founding a Magic Empire

Chapter 28 Industrial Revolution, but with Magic Side
"I succeeded!!"

Alan's voice reached all the way to the meeting room.

All the cabinet ministers working in the conference room were stunned.

Then Alan slammed a drawing and a report on the table, then folded his arms, looking like he was saying, "Praise me now."

"Dean, what are you doing?"

The ministers came forward curiously, and after seeing the detailed drawings and what was said in the report, they all jumped up excitedly.

"Dean Allen! You are my hero!"

"That's right! You are my hero!"

"Dean Allen, please accept my greeting!"

Amidst the compliments, the smile on Allen's face grew wider.

Without him,

Because this invention is Allen's best counterattack against all doubts!

"My Lords, are you willing to go with Alan to see this groundbreaking invention?"

"Naturally!"

Everyone followed with a smile, not caring about Alan's "arrogance".

Because Alan's "arrogance" at this moment is what he deserves!
……

When Caitlin, Edward and Caesar just returned from Shadow Star, they happened to meet the messenger who came to report the situation.

"Regent! This is Dean Allen's report. Dean Allen has successfully developed a steam engine!"

"Steam engine?"

Caitlin was stunned.

Norman had told her about this before, but she was studying tactics at the time and didn't pay attention.

It seems like a groundbreaking tool that can move on its own and release heat, a creation that can usher in a new era.

However, Norman and the Science and Technology Bureau had tried many times but failed. Caitlin thought it was just Norman's fantasy and didn't take it seriously.

Now you tell me that you have done it?

How did you do it?
Caitlin took the report, but she didn't quite understand the professional knowledge on it, so she just looked at the final result.

The reason why it was successful this time was due to the additional effect brought by the fire magic. That is, the fire magic was released in the pipe, and the steam generated directly pushed the piston of the machine to move.

The kinetic energy released is hundreds of times greater than previous human power!
And because the core is magic, it can better control the size and temperature of the flame.

Several difficulties that Allen had been unable to overcome before were all solved in an instant.

Moreover, Alan discovered that several difficult problems that had stumped him before were actually so simple!
It was precisely because this "simple" problem was solved that Alan felt ecstatic but also a little funny, which was why he looked like a madman when he laughed.

"Magic and technology combined together? Is it the same as that alchemical tool assembly line? Prime Minister Edward, do you know about this?"

"This matter has been reported. According to His Majesty's instructions, the funding has never been cut off."

"Then let's go take a look."

Caitlin nodded and brought the two to the Science and Technology Bureau, only to find that Alan had already arrived here with a group of cabinet ministers to test the steam engine.

"Look, everyone! This is a steam engine! The pressure of the steam moves the piston forward, thus generating mechanical energy. This process is what Your Majesty calls 'expansion of steam'!
"The movement of the piston can be used to drive mechanical equipment. It can replace wildebeests to drive carriages! It can replace wind power and drive windmills all the time! It can replace water flow to drive waterwheels!

"Anyway, it's more than twice as efficient as human labor and everything we can do now!" "And there's no need for someone to do it all the time. We just need to pay attention to maintenance and parts replacement! This is what Your Majesty always says, the first step to liberating manpower!"

Alan was impassioned.

The ministers listened attentively and praised and commended him continuously.

Because they all know what this represents, and they also know what the birth of the steam engine can bring!
Edward stepped forward and immediately raised a question after seeing the demonstration of the machine.

"Lord Allen, I remember His Majesty said that steam engines can be equipped with pistons, which can bring more power through gears and parts, and can also be improved into... an internal combustion engine? Is it possible?"

Allen, who was listening to everyone's conversation, raised his eyebrows and said excitedly: "Of course! You know a lot, you are..."

Allen turned around and said, "Prime Minister! Meet the Regent! Meet the General!"

Alan bowed decisively.

The ministers standing by had already bowed.

Alan couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth when he saw this scene.

"Can we try it now?" Caitlin asked, waving her hand.

After seeing the real thing, she became curious and wanted to see if this thing could be upgraded and improved.

If it can be improved, many things can be accomplished.

"of course can!"

Alan nodded vigorously, then turned to the other side and asked someone to pull out a pile of parts and a modified main body.

"Please look!"

"After completing the steam engine, I began to work on the internal combustion engine that Your Majesty mentioned."

"The principle of the internal combustion engine is the same as that of the steam engine. Your Majesty said that the reason why it is more powerful than the steam engine is mainly because of the fuel and structure of the internal combustion engine."

"The steam engine uses steam as its power, and the heat and pressure it can generate are limited. However, the internal combustion engine can generate more heat and pressure, push more pistons, and generate more kinetic energy when the fuel is upgraded!"

"If we had done this before, we would not have been able to reach the standard in a short period of time due to the limitations of smelting technology."

"But now we are using magic! In the hands of a fire magician, a level three fire magic array is enough to reach 3000 degrees Celsius! This is what His Majesty said, the highest temperature that fire can reach!"

"With this temperature, we have successfully achieved a quantum leap in smelting technology!"

Alan excitedly explained the achievements of the past year.

No one interrupted him. Even if they didn't understand what he said, everyone still listened carefully, wrote it down, and wrote corresponding policies for each characteristic.

"very good!"

Caitlin waited until Allen stopped, and then excitedly announced: "We will increase our R&D efforts now, collect usage opinions from all over the country, and put it into production immediately after the R&D is successful!"

"As ordered!"

All the ministers took the order and left, beginning to devote themselves to new work.

The entire Black Kingdom left, and with the help of magic and population advantages, a vigorous industrial revolution began in the entire country.

With the full deployment of the steam engine, the Black Kingdom, whose people were already extraordinary, suddenly burst out with shocking power!
The steam equipment was instantly spread out, with the Black Throne as the center, covering the entire north and mountainous areas, and heading towards the southern basin.

As the magic industrial revolution was rising, new ideas were also slowly fermenting...
