Magi Craft Meister

20-13 New Ideas

The next meeting on the 24th began with Rodrigo's question.

"Lord Jin, as far as yesterday's explanation is concerned, the wind magic of Wind Magic Propeller (Wind Thruster)... is it Strong Wind (Wind)? What was that, uh... yeah, water molecules? But can't you do the same as the air?

It was a part of a question that didn't make any sense, but I could understand Jen's intentions.

"In short, can't you keep your propulsion unchanged when you wear water, right?

"Yes, that! That's it!

If a wind magic thruster (wind thruster) is mounted on the side of the hull, the water will be sucked in when the waves are rough. The reason for this was that whenever the propulsion fluctuated, it could not go straight, and sometimes it would be difficult when moving forward at slight speeds.

"... Perhaps you can"

They are likely to say that they are too lying to answer immediately, and then why didn't they do it? I am Jen who responds carefully.

"Oh yeah! If you do, would you consider improving it for Lord Jin? If you're on the hull, we'll consider the remaining faces."

"Fine."

Thus, Jen had one person, or Reiko, but he decided to work on improving the wind magic thruster (wind thruster) in a separate room.

Elsa looked a little unfortunate and dropped Jen off going to the separate room.

"Father, is it that difficult?

Reiko looks strange. Jen is embarrassed.

"Shit, my voice is loud.... that kind of modification, I can do it in two minutes. But, you know, it's not a good idea to overdo it and make the evil stand out, right?

I seem to be aware of it for once. Not uncommonly. Now I think I hear voices.

"Okay."

So Jen joins Reiko and dismantles half the prototype of the wind magic thruster (wind thruster) he made yesterday. And I thought about it before.

Nevertheless, what you are thinking is separate.

"Even if it's not a geostationary satellite, embedding a marker on a mountain or something would be a landmark... I wonder if they would dig it up after all..."

"I think I have that"

If you have strong magic, it's easy to detect, so it's obvious. That's why Jen is in satellite custody.

"Hmm, it's hard to be perfectly still..."

Stopping relative to the surface requires precise calculations and accurate measurements.

"Hmmm......"

As for Jen, he wanted to establish landmarks not only for the objectives of the transfer, but also for the calculation of the position of aircraft and ships.

"Speaking of which, not only was it a compass for the ship's voyage, but what did it go... er... was it a quartermeter or a hexameter..."

In terms of very large clutter, longitude can be seen at the time and at the position of the Sun, and latitude can be seen at the altitude of the North Star. If you know latitude and longitude, you know where you are.

Gradually, the thought shifts to consideration of the sailing technique of the ship we are now building.

"Reiko, was there a North Star in this world, too?

He was Jen, not so familiar with the stars. Reiko gets in touch with Mr. Lao on the built-in "Magnetic Communicator (Manacam)" and answers Jen's questions.

"Yes. I do. A star with little error."

The Arctic star, called Earth, actually deviates less than once from the heavenly Arctic, thus appearing to travel in a slight circle, which accumulates and becomes an error.

"Right. Then you can check your position on the North Star at night."

"No, you can see it even at noon, right?

"Huh?"

Reiko's words were a shock to Jen.

I know best that Reiko has a far better eye than a human. But I didn't expect to see the stars even at noon.

When he has a vision of 6.0 or 7.0, he can see the stars even during the day, but Jen's vision is about 1.5, which is very impossible.

But it's not strange to see the stars in this world, where the air is clearer than on Earth, if Reiko's vision.

"Then it is possible to calculate the position from time and position of the Sun, position of the Moon, position of the North Star, if you make a dedicated measuring instrument..."

The time shall be the average time (HMT) of Penglai as 0 degrees longitude for the laboratory located in Penglai. All you have to do is measure and calculate the angle.

"... that's the solution to the fleet's voyage"

I'll let Old Man know the idea I just came up with and let him pack the details.

'Okay. I'll make a prototype.'

"Well, here's the problem"

The Penglai fleet would be fine, but Jen switched his mind again on what to do with the ongoing project.

"Compass is a must. Then, as far as possible, no iron parts will be used on the ship."

Modern ships are often made of iron, so azimuthal magnets are prone to go crazy. For this reason, a compass for ships uses what is called a gyro compass, not a magnet.

But all of a sudden, the gyro has a high hurdle, so Jen decides to use an azimuthal magnet. That's why I don't want to use iron parts as much as possible.

That's all I thought about, Reinhardt and Elsa came.

"Jin, what's up? It's lunch, isn't it?

"Brother Jin, were you immersed in your thoughts again?

Soon it was lunchtime, apparently, Jen, who is headed to the conversation room with the two of us. Lunch had arrived there and had already started eating except for the three Jens.

Jen also remembered to be hungry, so he takes his seat or begins to eat no.

The day's contributions were bread, freshwater shrimp and vegetable oil stir-fried, sweet-boiled Itopo (sweet potatoes) and fruit juice.

"... Jin, what do you say? I guess it's rude to ask...

Reinhardt asked as he finished his meal and was drinking a juice substitute. The other faces also listen in unison.

"Ah, oh. I got an approximate outlook. And then we'll have to make it."

"I knew it would be great!

The faces I was hearing nodded silently at Reinhardt's praise. Apparently, in one day yesterday, we were all convinced about Jen's strength.

"This one's packed up a lot, too. We're going to talk about the interior this afternoon. Depending on the interior, there can be some fine changes to the hull."

"Oh, sure it is.... By the way, who does the machining of the model?

Someone will have to be in charge because Jen is working on the propeller in a separate room by himself.

"Guess who?

Reinhardt laughing like a prank. His eyes glimpsed Elsa.

"... Elsa?

Elsa snorts and snorts. No heart or red cheeks.

"No, that's just Gin's best apprentice. More processing speed and accuracy than I do. We were all impressed."

"Heh..."

When Jen stared, Elsa dyed her face even more Zhu.

While I'm doing that, my break will be over. Jen tells Reinhardt and Elsa first that she doesn't want to use iron members as much as possible because she wants to use azimuthal magnets.

"I see, okay. Keep it in mind."

And to the afternoon review meeting, Reinhardt and Elsa went. Jen also returns to his role.

"Well, let's finish the thrusters."

As for Jen, it was an extremely simple story.

If wind attribute magic works on air molecules, water attribute magic works on water clusters, what about soil attribute magic?

The answer is' particles'. From the molecular level, to the rock, it can be said that it is the earthly attribute magic that works on 'chunks (heaps)' anyway.

In other words, if you use the magic of the Stone Barrett system, you will be able to produce propulsion regardless of air, water, dust, etc.

But there are flaws.

Jen retrofitting the prototype, whining to herself.

"You're not fuel-efficient..."

When I try to use it on an air molecule, I get L.A. for working on "chunks." By analogy with something like carrying one tennis ball in a large dump, you would imagine its futility addition or subtraction.

"But your father can improve, can't he?

Keiko is the one who puts the penetration into Jen's soliloquy. It is a line I trust in Jen.

"Of course not."

Jen laughs at it.

"Just add three magic formulas."

A judgment formula that determines the size of a subject, a classification formula that determines and classifies it into three stages, and a control formula that changes the force working by size.

In short, the idea of working a force suitable for each solid, liquid or gas. This increases efficiency to such an extent that it can be compared to the original wind magic thruster.

"It's my father, after all!

Listening to Reiko's praise, Jen rewrote the Magi formula and reassembled the wind magic thruster. No, it's not Wind Magic Propeller (Wind Thruster) anymore.

"... right, even call it 'Jet Thruster'"

Thus, a marine propulsion system, a "jet thruster", was completed.

In the time remaining, Jen is currently thinking of various ways to check his position.

"Right! You've got a hand in keeping markers buried so deep you can't dig them out!

It is the reversal idea that if the air is not working, it is deep in the ground.

"If the magic pattern is just special, and it's finally faint enough to sense it, no one will bother to dig it out"

This is how Jen put new ideas into practice between them.
