Chapter 271 "Electricity Capital"
The dwarves' enthusiasm was much greater than the king had imagined.
Just one week later, the airship arrived from the Thorn Islands.
Before that, dwarves arrived by boat one after another - the floating island was moving towards its next destination, Isonzo, generally along the main trunk of the Mayunya River. Merchant ships on the river could basically see the floating island as soon as they looked up.
In addition, the discharge device on the floating island is so bright at night that it can be seen by the human eye from more than ten kilometers away, and the elves can even use this lightning as a lighthouse to find the location of the floating island from a long distance.
Although a bunch of dwarf craftsmen came, the electricity load on the floating island has not increased.The main reason is that even for dwarves, electricity is a rare commodity, and you need a discharge core to use it.
The discharge core is actually a magic item that stabilizes the lightning spell. Dwarves usually only place one of these on a large airship, and it is mainly used to drive the engine of the airship.
Moreover, the dwarves had no knowledge of electromagnetism, and they didn't even have the concept of magnetism. They only knew that constantly reversing the electrodes could make the iron handle fixed on the track move back and forth.
So their motor is the most primitive mechanical motor, which is so primitive that it requires someone to constantly use a mechanical device to switch the positive and negative poles of the current - because the discharge core releases direct current.
The dwarfs built a disc-shaped positive and negative pole switching device, and then connected it to the pedals of a bicycle. When the motor is running, someone has to continuously pedal the pedals to switch the positive and negative poles back and forth.
Rosalie: "I think so. But I don't understand, how will this help us save the world?"
Wang scratched his head: "This..."
"But the dwarfs don't listen to me. They don't care what a princess like me says! They don't even greet me when they see me." Rosalie sighed, "I know you're obsessed with spreading... spreading electromagnetics here, but you have to take care of things, and the dwarfs will listen to you."
However, this plane has magical alchemy.
The dwarves don't seem to like interpersonal communication. Ever since the first group of dwarf craftsmen arrived on the island, they have pushed all the communication with the "Lord of the City" to the unlucky guy Bobby with three hairs on his head.
Wang: "I think you are doing a good job of managing humans, right?"
Just as Wang was happily making things with a group of dwarf craftsmen, on the morning of September 30, Rosalie said to him in a serious tone, "The number of dwarfs on the island has exceeded 300. The dwarfs are all busy making things. Yesterday alone, three dwarfs were electrocuted to death and more than a dozen were injured.
Incandescent lamps also have to be made from scratch, because there is no chemistry in this world, and the tungsten used to make incandescent lamp wicks in other planes has never been found in this plane.
Rosalie: "I know, I know, so we have an army too. Now, where's the army?"
Rosalie: "Why did we originally seek Nelenis's relics?"
Maybe it had been mined occasionally before, but this plane had no way to refine it, nor did it realize that it was a metal different from iron.
Wang: “Can’t you manage it?”
Rosalie: “How do I manage?”
The first way the dwarves came up with was to use this thing as a weapon - however, this idea was immediately overturned, because the materialistic electricity cannot hit anywhere it is pointed.
The king thought for a moment and said, "Let Gaines be the leader of the dwarfs. He knows almost everyone and must have a way to make these dwarf craftsmen obey."
Faced with this situation, the king had no choice but to continue moving electromagnetic knowledge to this plane. He first taught the dwarves how to make electromagnets, and then taught them how to make real DC motors.
In addition to this primitive motor, they also discovered that continuous electricity would cause metal to heat up and glow, but no one thought of using this to heat food or generate light.
King: "Okay, let's redraw the dwarves' residential areas and prohibit them from building workshops outside the area. In addition, I will let them elect a representative - damn, I always feel that they will elect that guy Bobby."
“Sister Atoli has been complaining to me, saying that most of the resurrection spells she prepared every day are used up, and various healing spells are also severely consumed.
Rosalie: "Or is it that lightning fence that looks so powerful that can destroy enemies that fall to the ground?"
Rosalie crossed her arms and said, "Yes, but you have drawn a boundary on the ground. Your dwarf craftsmen have spread their workshops around the boats where residents live."
Wang used the materials brought by the dwarves, started the furnace himself, and smelted a pot of tungsten alloy (yes, a pot, not the wrong quantifier), and the world's first incandescent lamp was finally born.
“Also, the humans on the island don’t dare get close to the dwarves’ attacks and defenses, for fear of being electrocuted, so you have to restrain the dwarf craftsmen!
In fact, only low- and medium-end dwarf airships are powered by electricity. The most advanced dwarf airships use magic engines with constant magic to drive the propellers.
Wang: "Well, the cult has an army. No, actually they have an entire country to back them up. It's hard for us to defeat them with just an elite squad. Before we can get in touch with their leader, we will be piled up by endless troops."
Rosalie: "So if the enemy lands on the floating island, your dwarf army will definitely be able to protect these catapults, engines, and flaming glue, right?"
Now, with such powerful, stable and continuous electrical energy, the dwarves have no experience in making electrical appliances, and the large amount of electricity can only be converted into lightning and released between the two sticks.
Wang: "Uh, no, you shouldn't count on it."
"No, this is not Nelenis's relic. This is the core of the extradimensional colonization machinery that Nelenis wants to activate." Wang explained while gesturing, "Electricity is just a windfall. What we are looking for is actually the relic of the ancient civilization to which Nelenis belongs. The Union of Arcane Magic used that thing to create a shared spell pool. I originally wanted to build something similar so that Elizabeth could cast other magic..."
Perhaps it is too convenient to use magic to accomplish these two things, and since electricity is so scarce, no one has ever thought about it.
Rosalie: "Didn't you notice? There are reports of people getting injured due to electric leakage in the church on the east side of the island and the Kailin Temple in the middle."
After all, it is an idealistic plane.
"You have to pick someone who can manage the dwarfs."
Wang quickly glanced at the map of the floating island on the large conference table in the central control room. "My God, have they laid the wires so far away?"
Wang: "Aren't we making electric ballistas and electric trebuchets? And the fact that the floating island is in the sky is an advantage. If we can install enough electric motors on the floating island, we can fly directly over the enemy's head and throw stones, which will have the same effect as a trebuchet. We can also throw fiery glue!"
Wang Yiyu: "If they want to conduct related experiments, they will need to use electricity. The transmission lines are only distributed around the power generation device, that is, around the gravitational core. Theoretically, they will only conduct experiments in this area of the island."
At this moment, Elizabeth suddenly burst into the central control room and shouted, "King! I can cast a fireball!"
Wang paused and turned to look at her: "What?"
Elizabeth: "I can cast a fireball! When I woke up this morning, I knew for sure that I could do it!"
Chapter 272 The bloodline has been decided, you shoot the fireball
Wang: "You know you can be released? What do you mean?"
Elizabeth: "We warlocks are like this. When we wake up, we suddenly feel that we can cast a certain spell, and we can cast it."
"Then I hope you feel you can cast the Banshee's Wail." The king said firmly, "Now, immediately, immediately!"
Elizabeth pouted. "I'm telling you something serious. I really can cast a fireball."
Wang: "I believe you can do it, but have you tried it?"
Elizabeth shook her head: "No."
Wang: "Do you know what materials are needed to cast Fireball?"
Elizabeth continued to shake her head: "No. But I feel like I can let it go."
Wang walked over to Elizabeth, took out a ball of bat droppings and sulfur from his bag of spell materials, and stuffed it into Elizabeth's hand: "Come on, throw one to me."
The explosion occurred, and Wang clearly felt the shock wave brushing against the back of his head, almost pulling his scalp off.
After Xiaobai finished putting out the fire, he turned around and looked at the three people lying on the ground. He immediately frowned and said, "You guys... finally decided to try the two dragons playing with the pearl?"
Only then did Wang realize that he seemed to be in a very exciting state for a normal man.
Wang: "What's wrong? Isn't the ballet issue over? But the warlock's upgrade is so random, it's really like waking up to get a new spell."
"It would be bad if things were blown up, right?" Elizabeth asked worriedly.
At this time Marika rushed in: "Your Highness!"
"That's why all apprentices in our Mage Tower have to undergo muscle training. Of course, using a sling also requires muscle strength." (*)
Flint: "She is a warlock after all, and a beautiful one at that. It's normal."
Fireballs usually explode when they reach their maximum range, but warlocks' spells occasionally have all kinds of uncertain accidents, so it's not strange for warlocks to have a fireball not explode when it exceeds the range. (*)
"Oh." Elizabeth looked down at the dung ball in her hand with a frown. She took a deep breath, then gave herself to the instinct brought by her blood and recited the spell of fireball.
The king grabbed Elizabeth's hand and forced her to throw the ball of fire in her hand forward, then reached out and grabbed Rosalie who was still in a daze, and threw the two girls to the ground together.
Elizabeth looked around. The central control room now had a corner separated by a screen as the king's living area, and Rosalie would occasionally stay overnight here.
"It's very bouncy. But it was an accident."
The king patted her shoulder and pointed to the Cyclops Empire artifacts just north of the entire central control room: "Shoot over there."
Elizabeth smiled proudly as she climbed up. After she stood up completely, she proudly announced, "I've reached the third ring. I did it with the fireball technique."
It would be more exciting if the two girls turned over.
Wang: "Throw it quickly! It will explode if you pinch your hand!"
Elizabeth smiled brightly at the unexpected admiration and glanced at Rosalie.
He quickly got up and said, "Elizabeth's spell went wrong just now. I did this to prevent them from getting hurt. I didn't do this to lie on top of them and feel the elasticity of their buttocks."
Wang: "She used the fireball technique to blow it up."
Wang: “Did you drink last night?”
Wang: "No, you need to throw it. Once the fireball leaves your hand, it will fly in a straight line, so the fireball's hit does not depend on the mage's throwing skills, but the initial velocity when you throw it determines its flight speed.
Marika ignored Rosalie and hugged Elizabeth, "Congratulations on becoming a three-ring warlock!"
The dwarf looked at Elizabeth in confusion. "The scorching rays have this effect? Don't lie to me. After all, I have been adventuring with Tanis for a long time, so I know a lot."
Flint took the lead: "What happened? Oh, I told you they were just having fun, don't worry about it. It's normal for a wizard to blow something up. Let's go."
Xiao Bai asked seriously, "Is it very elastic?"
The flames were extinguished by heavy rain.
Elizabeth also hugged Marika: "I finally reached the third ring! In addition to the scorching ray, I have other offensive spells!"
Elizabeth: "I wasn't aiming at that... I thought the spell would fire automatically as long as I pointed my finger at the target, like the scorching ray."
Marika: "Yes, now our wizard will take you to the dungeon no matter what in order to save his spell slots!"
Rosalie wailed, "My closet! There are so many dresses in there that I really like!"
Wang looked down at Elizabeth's waist and confirmed with his naked eyes that it was indeed thin, especially when compared with the upper and lower parts of her body.
Wang: "Just be careful not to burn the daily necessities here. After all, there are walls all around and in the sky, so the fireball can't fly out. If you throw it from the ground and the fireball flies to a certain distance but doesn't explode and keeps flying forward, it could be bad."
In addition to all these modern creations, there is also a huge automatic sandbox left by the ancient Cyclops in the control room - the destination of the floating island can be determined by a mechanical device hanging from the ceiling above the sandbox.
Wang turned his attention to the destroyed wardrobe: "Fireball is very good, much more effective than the scorching ray. This way, I won't have to bring Fireball with me when we act together in the future."
Elizabeth suddenly felt wronged: "Of course I can. Ballet is the best way to keep in shape, otherwise how can I have such a thin waist?"
When the impact subsided, the three of them looked up.
Xiaobai used the rainmaking magic, and it started to rain indoors around Rosalie's closet.
Just as he finished speaking, a little sparrow came out of the vent and suddenly turned into Xiaobai: "What's going on? I heard a loud explosion? Ooooh, it's on fire! It's on fire!"
Wang looked at Elizabeth in surprise: "You can also do ballet?"
