Magus Tech

In a flash, many days passed.

The wooden boat of the Baishi Tower went down the Emerald River, and in the middle of the two larger cities for several days, the number of people on the boat reached more than fifty people.

After that, the wooden boat sailed to the estuary and entered the endless sea.

After driving on the sea for half a day, a black shadow appeared on the sea.

When you get close, you can see that it is a huge ship.

If the wooden boat is like a hill, then the giant ship is like an island.Richard estimated that the displacement was at least several thousand tons.

This is an exaggerated level.

The larger the ship, the more difficult it is to make. In fact, shipbuilding in the Middle Ages was not well developed, and most of them were sea ships with displacements of tens of tons and hundreds of tons.

In the maritime era after the Middle Ages, shipbuilding surged, but the displacement was still difficult to reach 1,000 tons.

Until modern times, giant ships of several thousand tons were considered relatively common, while tens of thousands of tons could only be reached by ocean freighters, large warships, or aircraft carriers.

As he got closer and closer to the giant ship, Richard also saw more details, and finally his eyes fell on a part of the hull close to the water.Raised his eyebrows and found something unusual.

It was a structure that was submerged under water, closely connected to the hull, but protruded substantially forward, like a large nose on a smooth hull.

This is the bulbous bow.

Richard thought.

This is something that does not belong to the Middle Ages at all.

If we say that the volume and displacement of the boat can be forcibly piled up, the bulbous bow is different. This is entirely a technological creation.

When the hull travels on the sea, the resistance caused by the waves in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the hull is called wave resistance.The wave energy of the ship is supplied by the hull, and the existence of wave-making resistance consumes a part of the power to propel the ship in a certain sense.

With the bulbous bow installed, the first wave of the bulbous bulb will start from the trough, and the first wave of the hull will start from the crest.After some adjustments, the trough of the bulbous wave system generated by the bulbous head coincides with the peak of the main hull wave system, and the wave cancellation effect can be obtained, reducing the resistance of the ship's navigation and reducing the propulsion power consumption. 10%.

The range of 10% cannot be seen in general voyages, but it is very important in long-range voyages, especially in long-range voyages with large displacements.

Even so, even though the bulbous bow has an important role, the bulbous bow is not manufactured if it is to be manufactured. This is an extremely complex system that was only studied in the 20th century on modern Earth and is mainly used on warships.Some data must be calculated accurately, otherwise it will not only fail to reduce resistance, but also increase resistance.

That is to say, this is a creation that transcends the times, and now appears in front of us.

It seems that because of the influence of wizards or other factors, although the current world is similar to the Middle Ages, it is not exactly the same.Some things have changed, including a certain level of technology.

The secrets of this world seem to be increasing.

Richard thought, the wooden boat stopped beside the giant ship.

Everyone stood on the deck, looking up at the tall ship with their necks raised, and suddenly a footstep sounded, and a person came out of the cabin.

It is the wizard Sever.

For many days on the boat, everyone has known this wizard who is not very talkative, and has seen him use the thunder to punish the wrongdoers.As soon as he saw Sever appear, he immediately gave way.

Siver didn't say much. He didn't see any movements. When he stepped on his feet, the whole person floated up and floated on the giant wheel.Everyone on the deck of the wooden boat exclaimed, almost all marveled at the magic of the spell and the magic of the wizard.

Sever boarded the giant wheel, it should be communicating with the people on the giant wheel. For a moment, many figures appeared on the edge of the giant wheel deck, put down the wooden ladder, and let everyone climb up.

After boarding the giant wheel, all the talents truly realized the size of the giant wheel, and they couldn't help but stunned again, even if it was Gro's eyes.Richard did not respond much. After all, modern earth has larger ships. As for Pandora's eyes, he didn't keep his eyes open, his eyes closed, his head little by little, and he followed behind Richard.

After that, it was to divide the cabin. At this time, some levels finally showed their effect.

The giant ship is very large, so the cabin under the deck is divided into three levels.

On the floor closest to the deck, only talented students of higher wizards are eligible to live.

The second floor, slightly further away from the deck, is home to moderately talented students.

As for the third floor near the bottom of the ship, it is the residence of students with low or no talents who boarded the ship through the exemption certificate.

Going down to the third floor, you can clearly feel the low, moist and cold here. The overall environment is completely described as dirty and messy, and it lives with the sailors on the ship, which challenges the endurance limit of many people.

But this is the only way. No one dares to disobey the wizard's orders.

Richard didn't care too much about it.For him, some living conditions can be made as simple as possible, as long as it does not affect normal activities.

In consideration of avoiding being disturbed, Richard chose a cabin at the end of the three-story corridor and led Pandora in.

After entering the cabin, the door was closed, Pandora put down the suitcase, and wobbled to find the bed automatically.

When he found it, he sat up and fell asleep.

But suddenly he raised his head, opened his eyes, frowned, and touched the bed, making a sound to Richard: "Wet!"

Wet, really wet.

Because the cabin is underwater, the air humidity is very high, and because the shipbuilding process is not very high, there are continuous leaks of water in some gaps, making the whole cabin wet.The bulkhead is covered with moss, and even creatures such as snails and shells. A green shell crab crawls around the corner.

The bedding is so wet that it can almost wring out the water. After a while in this cabin, the body feels sticky. That's because the humidity of the air is too high and the sweat can't be distributed normally. It's no wonder that Pandora is sleepy. Can't sleep.

However, this is not difficult for Richard.

A simple spell is done.

Lips open slightly, free energy elements in the body surge, and the "drop condensation" spell is quickly released.

Moisture in the air quickly gathered towards Richard's fingertips, then turned into drops of water, and under Richard's control, fell into a wooden barrel in the cabin.

By the time the water in the barrel was almost full, the cabin had become extremely dry, as if it had been exposed to the sun.The moss turned from green to yellow, and the snails and shells attached to the bulkhead fell.

Pandora tentatively touched the bedding again, nodded with satisfaction, and fell down to sleep.

Richard threw all the brains of snails, shells, and blue-shell crabs into the barrel. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but the cabin door was knocked.

"Boom!"
