Magus Tech Chapter 424: Jack’s test
The difficulty of "Composite Armor" and "Fence Armor" technology is not high, at least not as high as "Spell Salt".
To briefly explain, composite armor is the opposite of homogeneous armor.
Homogeneous armor is armor made of a single material, such as steel armor, aluminum alloy armor, etc. It has good defensive power, but if you want to greatly increase the defensive power, you can only continuously increase the thickness of the armor.
The composite armor is composed of more than two layers of protective materials with different properties. Because the protective materials are different, their physical properties are also different. In the process of external attacks trying to penetrate, different physical properties will produce great differences, thereby interfering with the attack direction.
A shell bombards the composite armor. On the surface, it looks like it penetrates the first layer of armor vertically, but after touching the second layer of armor, it may cause the shell to penetrate at an angle due to the hardness of the second layer of armor. change, or even get stuck directly between the armor.
Composite armor uses this technology to greatly increase the armor's defense without increasing the thickness of the armor.
The fence armor is even simpler. To explain it in one sentence, it is to defend and detonate in advance.
Generally, the fence armor installed on the tank is like a wire bird cage covering the shell of the tank. Naturally, this kind of existence couldn't defend against any powerful attacks—a metal fence could be smashed flat with a small hammer. However, it can allow some powerful attacks to explode in advance, so as to avoid being destroyed.
For example, if a rocket hits a tank, it needs to pass through the armor of the fence before hitting the real armor of the tank. Although the fence armor is extremely weak in defense, it still exists. Even if it can be smashed with a small hammer, it must be smashed before it can pass.
And the rockets will carry a hammer with them, ready to smash the fence armor?
Obviously not, so if you want to pass through the fence armor, you can only detonate the explosive power of the projectile in advance.
In this way, the fence armor may be blown to pieces, but at least half of the power of the projectile body will be wasted out of thin air, and the rest can be applied to the back of the fence armor, using "reaction" and "composite" technologies In this way, it is basically impossible to penetrate.
So, how do you do this with magic?
According to Richard's conjecture, it is not difficult to realize it.
Composite armor can be made using different non-Newtonian fluids, and then flexibly determine the number of layers of composite armor according to different combat situations.
The fence armor can be simulated with wind spells to create an air wall to block in front of the reaction shield.
Just because it's not difficult doesn't mean it can be done easily. Whether it is trying to make a new, qualified non-Newtonian fluid, or testing the best defense data of the air wall, a lot of simulation experiments are required-without a lot of time, there will be no results.
This needs to be studied with a sinking heart.
In addition, the sixth one is the improvement and upgrading of the energy system of the Garden of Eden. This is also the last research that Richard wants to carry out so far.
Now in the Garden of Eden, the lighting system is electric lamps, oil lamps, and candles in parallel. The reason is that there is insufficient electricity. After all, electric energy mainly relies on lead-acid batteries at present, and lead-acid batteries are charged by Pandora with a hand-cranked generator.
Therefore, the source of energy is regarded as mechanical energy, or, to put it further, biological energy.
In this way, unless Pandora is designed as a generator, there will be no big progress, and it will not be able to meet the growing needs of the Garden of Eden.
In Li Cha's view, if possible, it would save some trouble to make a steam engine or an internal combustion engine.
However, whether it is a steam engine or an internal combustion engine, both rely on fossil fuels - the steam engine burns coal, and the internal combustion engine burns oil. Neither of these resources is widely available in the current world, at least on the East Coast, and they are hard to find. Unless he is prepared to turn himself into a geologist and mine owner and spend several years mining himself, it will be difficult to get a large supply.
How can this problem be solved?
Or the improvement and upgrade plan of the Garden of Eden energy system, temporarily postponed?
Li Cha feels that this question needs to be thought about carefully.
……
Li Cha was busy, constantly busy, doing various researches while thinking.
Just like that, it was already a day later when he came out of the Garden of Eden again.
……
In the early morning of a new day, Richard walked out of the Garden of Eden, out of the temporary cabin, and onto the deck.
Here, Li Cha saw the short sailor Jack he had seen before, kneeling on the deck, surrounded by a large group of sailors, while the captain Morgan was standing in front of Jack, vigorously waving his whip, Beat Jack to pieces.
"Papa papa!"
Jack screamed again and again, begging for mercy: "Boat...Captain, please forgive me, I was wrong, I really know I was wrong."
"Know it's wrong?" The captain Morgan snorted coldly, and he whipped harder. While whipping, he said: "Since I know I'm wrong, why don't you do it well? I transferred you to the kitchen yesterday to help, let you and the rest The chef cooks together. The first lunch was unpalatable, forget it, why is the second meal even worse, and everyone who eats it has diarrhea! Are you going to poison and kill everyone?"
"No, I just accidentally undercooked something, so..." Jack explained.
"Sophistry, it's all sophistry!" Captain Morgan was very angry. He swung his whip continuously and hit Jack again and again. You don't taste it yourself before you serve it? You know, you made a supper that left several sailors on my ship still lying in hammocks! Can you do something for them? Huh?!"
"I... oh, oh!" Jack wanted to say something, but he was whipped to the ground by Captain Morgan, rolling on the ground in pain.
"Papa papa!"
Captain Morgan had been whipping for a long time and stopped when he was tired.
Jack was lying on the deck, with tattered clothes and wounds all over his body. He slowly raised his head, looked at Captain Morgan in fear and said, "Captain, you..."
"Hmph, I'll give you another chance." Captain Morgan pointed at Jack and said, "Go to the kitchen immediately and make a breakfast for one person. If you can satisfy me, your mistake Forget it, just work hard in the kitchen in the future. If it still doesn’t work, hum, then you are ready to hang on the mast for a day today!”
"This!" Jack shuddered when he heard~IndoMTL.com~.
The captain Morgan stared slightly: "Why, you are not happy?"
"No, no, I'll go right away, I'll go right away." Jack struggled to stand up, wiped the blood from his face, and staggered towards the kitchen.
Many sailors, first mate, second mate, third mate, bosun and captain Morgan were waiting on the deck.
At a corner of the deck, Li Cha stood and watched. On the side, there are other passengers watching the excitement. One part belonged to the lower cabin, and the other part belonged to the upper cabin. The clothes were slightly more gorgeous, and the complexion was better. We are discussing quietly, laughing out loud from time to time.
"I said, I bet you, that poor little sailor will definitely suffer."
"I won't bet with you, because you don't need to tell me, I know it will be like this. Look at the appearance of that dwarf sailor, can it be cooking material?"
"That's right, thin and small, I suspect he can't even eat, let alone cook."
"Not necessarily. The reason why I am so thin and small may be the reason when I was a child. So, I may eat it when I eat, but if I eat milk, hehe, I may not be able to!"
"Hahaha, you bastard..."
Laughter sounded, and the captain Morgan in the distance listened and frowned slightly, but he didn't react much when he saw that it was a passenger. To the passengers, he has always been icy. Although he will not treat the passengers roughly like the members of the ship, he will not communicate with them. So, he just took a glance, then looked away, then turned his head to look in the direction of the kitchen, waiting patiently for Sailor Jack to bring him something.
