The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 105: The breath of war
Annan didn't even have to think too much.
When he heard about this invention, he could directly conclude that there was something wrong with this person.
Even if he directly tinkered with an electric power system or even built a high-voltage power transmission line in one step in this era before the internal combustion engine became popular, Annan could even be regarded as an outstanding talent and a genius.
After all, producing electricity in this world does not even require magnetic electricity generation technology. As long as proper rituals are used, a large amount of electricity can be obtained directly and cheaply - and one of the greatest advantages of electricity is that it can be transported over long distances at low cost.
...But your technology of directly transmitting heat energy over a long distance is a bit too much?
Even if "Denisoya" here specifically refers to the island itself, it does not count the entire United Kingdom. Its area is only about one-sixth the size of Noah's land.
But this is almost equivalent to the area of the entire territory of Austria, and is probably slightly smaller than a province of China.
...But this entire line from west to east only loses 12%?
This is still a level where the technology has just been developed and has not yet been optimized.
Good guy, this is really a good guy.
——Even the loss of transmitting electric energy is not so low?
Annan himself is a great ritualist. Although he lost a lot of mystical knowledge accumulated during the Black Annan period, his intuition also told him that this was almost impossible.
If this was an invention that could be accomplished using only "rituals", then Black Annan would have probably invented it a few years after he came into the world. There is no need to tinker with an internal combustion engine from scratch.
And if this can be done, why must heat energy be transmitted?
What is he trying to do?
Issac, standing behind Annan, also realized the problem: "This is impossible - thermal energy is not suitable for low-cost long-distance transportation. Not only is it impossible, but it is meaningless."
At least in this era, due to the existence of green fire and black fire, heat energy is not particularly scarce.
Limited by the limitations of the times... Isaac currently does not realize what this means.
In the beginning, electric energy could only be used as industrial energy in a small range. More than a hundred years later, with the introduction of many consumer appliances on the application side, the electrical age has truly arrived.
In this era, the internal combustion engine has not yet entered its application period.
And Isaac is an "old antique" who lived more than a hundred years ago.
He could not understand the value brought by energy transmission technology at the first time... But Annan was different.
However, Annan has not yet explained this.
"There is definitely meaning. As long as energy is involved, technology that can safely transport energy at low cost is meaningful anyway."
Annan shook his head and brought the topic to a more critical point: "Even if it doesn't make sense now, there will be in the future... The question now is, how was this developed?"
"We don't know either..."
Blackbird spread his hands and looked helpless: "But it exists.
“On our side, there were many people who didn’t believe him at first. So Count Flamel conducted many experiments in full view of the public, and each time it went very smoothly.
"So I have to believe it. With this thing, even the Field Islands will no longer have to worry about energy."
When he heard this, Isaac’s first reaction was:
——Aren’t the Field Islands already lacking in energy?
Today is not the same as before.
In previous eras, the main sources of energy for the private sector came from coal mines and whales. The former is mainly used to supply steam engines, while kerosene and whale oil can be used for lighting.
Denisoya's overall coal resources are quite scarce, and they must be given priority to the native Denisoa. In the surrounding Field Islands, only freshly cut firewood can be used for heating in winter.
As for whaling, you don’t necessarily have to be Denisaw to do it.
The Field Islands look like broken islands floating sporadically on the west side of Denisoa. The direction of the ocean current in this part is from west to east, so the whaling tradition of the Field Islands is not inferior to that of Denisoa.
Since the civil use of black fire and green fire began, the Field Islands no longer have to worry about energy shortage.
Technology from the Black Tower of the Zeal can refine substances similar to natural gas and oil into black fire. If it is diluted and inertized, green fire can be further created.
The biggest advantage of these two energy sources is that they can store more energy in the same volume.
Black fire can ignite a flame that is hotter, burns longer, and is less likely to be extinguished - in certain furnaces, black fire can even be used to make steel.
Of the two energy sources, the black fire has a slightly unpleasant smell, while the lower temperature green fire has no smoke at all.
Green fire can convert energy into light as much as possible... Only a small piece of green fire is needed to burn for a long time, and it is also windproof and shake-proof. So it is used as a raw material for urban street lamps... This is certainly not because local managers attach importance to municipal projects. The premise must be that green fire is cheap and durable enough.
And in the United Kingdom.
In other words, in the Field Islands... the situation is slightly different.
Because of the existence of pirates, energy transportation may not be stable.
Because of this, black fire and green fire, which are very cheap in other countries, even in Denisoa itself, can fetch very high prices in the Field Islands.
The majority of this money was not earned by Zedi Black Tower as the exporter or Danny Sawyer as the importer.
It's the pirate gangs who cut off the goods and sell them themselves.
Because black fire and green fire have a longer shelf life, it is entirely possible to stock up on black fire and sell it.
They will deliberately control the sales of black fire and green fire in the area under their control, slowly release a batch of goods using the reason of "rare things are more valuable", and raise the price by three or four times.
This is also one of the main sources of income for pirates.
"Wait, let's put it this way..."
Isaac's pupils shrank.
He suddenly reacted.
He immediately realized why Blackbird had just said that it was "a cross-era invention for the United Kingdom."
The real meaning is not the various emerging civilian technologies that may be born based on this invention itself.
——Instead, the Black Fire was directly stuck in Denisoa and no longer flowed to the Field Islands. ~IndoMTL.com~ Directly uses the limited energy supply of "heat cable duct".
Using this method, you can directly strangle those pirates by the throat!
This means...
Is King Denisoya going to pacify the pirates? !
And Count Flamel is just a target launched to attract the hatred of pirates...
Issac suddenly realized something and raised his head to look at Annan.
They realized from each other's eyes - this person also noticed this!
——If nothing else happens, Denisawia will soon be in civil strife.
A real civil war may be coming!
