Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 511 The Mystery of Landing 3
The airship needs a strong power to make the airship itself and its cargo fly into the sky.It was originally developed by people on the surface, so it also used a mechanical engine at the beginning of the design.Due to various restrictions, its output is generally limited below a certain level, and it is enough to fly on the surface, but it is basically impossible to fly to the floating continent....

The floating continent is too high, far beyond the power limit of ordinary airships; there are only two ways to let the airship reach the floating continent:

One is to manufacture airships with extremely large power and volume, but extremely small capacity.As long as the total weight of the engine and the carrying part is controlled, you can fly to the floating continent—however, this kind of airship is quite uneconomical and cost-effective, and generally only accommodates one or two people to and from the floating continent; Moreover, the safety of this type of airship is extremely uncertain. Except for some rich and ambitious people who "want to board the floating continent anyway", no one will use this type of airship idea.

The second airship...is even more uneconomical.This type of airship is to strictly control the weight of materials and use the most advanced and efficient engines, so that airships of normal size can also fly to the floating continent-however, the cost of this type of airship is a lot of money. The numbers are so dizzying that only a very few great empires can be built—yes, it refers to the one that ruled the surface before.The material of the hull is a special and expensive material that takes into account both hardness and light weight. As for the engine, it is made of a special metal with extremely limited storage on the surface. The price...

It’s not easy to explain from the front, so let’s look at it from the side: after the war, some countries once sent dozens of submarines to the waters below the floating continent to search for the metal of the engines. It is said that one or two pieces were found. ——The evaluation of the surface at that time was that luck was too good and it made a lot of money.

Its high price consumed most of the power of the empire, so that there was no way to effectively suppress it in the restoration movement on the surface.

As for now, the manufacture of the Type [-] engine has been completely banned, and the Type [-] engine... First of all, no country on the surface has the money to make such an airship; secondly, why do such an airship have nothing to do?Declare war with the floating continent?

However, the floating mainlanders are quite generous and benevolent.The price of the engine of the airship is high, but if the factor of "magic power" is added, it will be much easier to solve - mechanical technical problems can be easily solved with magic power, so that the surface engineers shouted "This is unscientific! "

Of course, it wasn't science in the first place.

The people in the floating continent are not stupid, they know that they have to keep their hands in everything; they taught the surface people how to make a conventional magic engine, but they didn't teach them how to make a high-power magic engine that can fly to the floating continent.The production of all high-power magic engines is carried out in cooperation between the two parties, and the core technology of floating mainlanders has been kept absolutely secret; moreover, each engine produced has a number and monitoring system, and it must be scrapped when it is time to scrap it. Floating mainlanders to destroy - it is impossible to leak the secret.

However, if this technical problem can be overcome...the surface people may really sneak up on the floating continent.
