Release that Witch Chapter 182: Shaft furnace
As long as it can cover the surface of an object and form a solid continuous film, it can be called a coating. The coatings themselves can be gaseous, liquid, and solid, and their uses vary. From the original beautiful decoration to the protection of the durability of the object later, it is a kind of coating.
Roland then launched a series of tests.
The test results made him extremely happy, probably influenced by the idea that "paint can be kept as long as possible". Her previous photo paintings would have been difficult to completely remove without destroying the carrier, and her ability to evolve has been even more Take this feature to a new level.
First, this high-adhesion, light-weight pigment exhibits two distinct characteristics in physical properties. It can change the flexibility of its own material qualitative according to the different painting objects. For example, when painting the sky or clouds, it Soft like marshmallows, extremely resistant to stretching and shearing. When it is replaced with iron ingots and glass, it becomes hard and brittle and can be broken directly with a hammer. In other words, due to quality limitations, it performs much better than rigidity in terms of flexibility, which is also in line with Soraya's understanding of pigments.
Secondly, no matter what kind of characteristics it displays, its chemical properties are very stable, and it will not only react with dilute sulfuric acid and dilute nitric acid, but also show repellency to water and oil. When he filled a painted box with water, the thin bottom of the box showed no sign of water leakage. After pouring out the water, the clear liquid rolls in the box, like the dew on the lotus leaf. At this point, touch the bottom with your fingers and feel dry.
In the high temperature resistance test, after Anna dripped molten iron into the carton, the paper as a carrier immediately caught fire and burned. The coating itself did not change much except it was held apart by the molten iron. Until the black fire of Anna continued to heat and burn the coating, it began to melt and deform, while emitting white smoke, and finally turned into a black gel.
The most exciting thing for Roland is that this coating is also insulating. After covering the copper wire, it can be regarded as the enamelled wire in the future. He proved this with the simple DC generator in the yard.
So far, Roland has a complete understanding of the new capabilities of Soraya.
Unlike Anna, which surpasses the green fire in all aspects, her evolved ability is more like an extension of her previous painting ability. Now she can draw realistic oil paintings, as well as the thin Thin photo painting, it only depends on the idea in her mind, the two abilities can be used in parallel.
In addition, when drawing a scroll with a thickness, if the thickness is controlled to be less than one centimeter, Soraya can almost continuously draw for several hours. And once it exceeds three centimeters, the consumption of magic power will increase rapidly, and after ten centimeters, it will reach a threshold, and the magic power that has almost exhausted the whole body is only enough to draw one or two strokes. Of course, from another perspective, this is also the fastest and most effective way to vent when facing magic power phage.
It still belongs to Summon type capability. Within the effective range of God Punishment Stone, Magic Pen will disappear suddenly, and Soraya can no longer draw new patterns. However, the painted coating will not be affected by God Punishment Stone. Under the observation of Nightingale, there are no traces left by magic power. In other words, the material generated by Magic Pen is real.
As for the use of coatings ... that's too much. Soraya will never think of how much change her new ability can bring to small town, which means that Roland can quickly get a batch of water supply pipes coated with rust-proof materials, as well as large bundles of enameled wires, and even high-temperature fire-resistant bricks. . The seemingly out of reach of the three-way project (water, electricity, access) suddenly saw the dawn.
At the same time, it also reminded him that the cognition of personal experience is far more profound than the axioms in books.
If witches can see the micro world more intuitively, will it speed up their process of accepting particle theory, which will trigger a new round of evolution? For example ... a microscope that can observe cell structure and microorganisms.
Roland feels it necessary to try it out.

Northern Slope furnace group.
"Blow! Let the fire burn a bit more!" shouted Lowes.
Although you can't see the scene in the shaft furnace, as the three-car charcoal is poured in, the iron stones in it should have turned red.
When he was called to Border Town by a letter from Karl van Bate, he thought it was a barren and barren land. If it was n’t for the letter, Stonemason might be able to get a new life here. He would not want to run beyond the border of the kingdom. Revisit the old industry.
Farewell to his family. After packing up luggage set off, he is ready to drink porridge and live in a tent. As for the lack of people and the money and money, it is a problem often encountered during construction.
Lowes did not plan to stay in Border Town for a long time. Look at Karl, an old friend who has known him for many years, and see that Stonemason will meet those who have been exiled or reclusive. He is satisfied.
But reality is always so incredible.
After arriving at small town by boat, he saw the outstanding Stonemason of Karl van Bate and Greycastle Kingdom Capital on dock, and he was also a strong contender for the next leader of the guild. Compared to what memory looks like, he has white hair on the horns and a few lines of wrinkles on his face, but his body is not thin, but he is a lot stronger, and his face is even shiny.
After a few greetings, Karl did not take him to a noisy construction site, but instead led him to a newly built residential building, and handed over a key and said, "This room is yours. Now, let ’s put luggage first, let ’s go to the pub and have a drink. "
... Then Lowes heard an incredible series of stories from the other side.
Karl was recruited into City Hall by feudal lord as a civilian, becoming an official with a fixed salary every month, and also the head of the Ministry of Construction gate!
If you stay, you can also work in City Hall!
Free home for free!
After ten years, you can get retirement benefits! What are retirement benefits? You can get money even if you don't work!
Lowes thought Karl was drunk at the time, but he didn't expect it ... what he said was true.
"Sir, the ore is melting and I see molten iron flowing!" shouted the worker at the top of the furnace.
"Open the **** outlet to discharge slag!"
After putting into work, none of the problems envisaged by the Lowes appeared. Not only were people asking for money or money, but they were also given very quickly. Often, the application can be answered the next day. In addition, a alchemy material called cement can be produced here, which can quickly bond bricks and stones, making the construction speed leaps and bounds, he felt an unprecedented bliss here.
In just one month, Lowes has built five furnaces with air bladder and three shaft furnaces for ironmaking.
The shaft furnace in front of him is the work that he has pondered for many years after leaving the Stonemason conference. It is a collection of past experience. I thought it could only be passed down in the form of drawings. I did not expect that there would be a day when it turned into a finished product.
This improved shaft furnace is nearly two meters high and has an inner diameter of about 75 cm. The lower part of the furnace body is provided with a plurality of air nozzles, which can be used for blowing air and extracting air, and a **** discharge port and a molten iron flow outlet are left at the bottom. Next to the shaft furnace, there is a soil **** made of sand and stone, which is convenient for workers to feed and observe the situation in the furnace.
Today is the day when the first shaft furnace is officially put into use. Before the furnace is opened, a smelting inspection should be performed according to the usual practice.
After opening the **** outlet intermittently more than ten times, and after adding two carts of charcoal to the furnace, the inspection basically declared that the qualified furnace has a molten iron bottom, the **** discharge opening is unobstructed, and the temperature can meet the smelting needs There is no need to continue to waste charcoal to burn it. After all, in order to reduce losses, waste ore in the corner of the yard was used during the first inspection of the furnace.
Open the tap hole to discharge the molten molten iron. Lowes announced the shutdown of the furnace.
...
Two days later, the townspeople who cleaned the hearth planed out several pieces of dark colored stone. Under the high-temperature baking, other waste ore has been reduced by several circles, except that these pieces of ore have not changed much when just thrown in. Instead, the surface is brighter and blacker than ink.
Lowes can't judge what kind of ore it is. It is a useless waste ore. Its shape and appearance are really flattering, not like useless, but what if it is useful and cannot be smelted? Make an artifact? After thinking about it, he simply picked out a piece of ore with the most square shape, wrapped it in a cloth, and let his men go to the castle to give it to Border Town feudal lord Roland Wimbledon.
Perhaps the well-known adult feudal lord knows the answer. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to start casting, your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please read.)
