The Throne Under the Starry Sky Chapter 161: Boiling Lake (Part 2)

The commotion in the embassy gradually subsided, and Lieutenant Colonel Sardis ordered the cavalry to stand on guard and poured a cup of hot tea for Jonah himself: "Maybe it is too tired, Lieutenant Colonel Jonah, take a good rest. "

"Thank you..." As a result, the astrologer took a sip from the teacup, and the interrupted memory in his mind has become an untouchable dark area. Once trying to remember, it will cause a severe headache. This has never happened before. He looked down at that strange belt. No matter what he thought, this phenomenon was related to this belt. He didn't know the origin and function of the belt. He didn't know how the Descendants could help the Flores to resolve the crisis. Knowing when I left Ekbatana to join my friends, I don’t know when this afternoon tea party will last. The 17-year-old can only smile and act like he is not himself.

Asai took out a tattered pocket watch from his arms and fiddled with it. The crankshaft rattled, the small steam machine sprayed out white mist, and the rusty hour hand began to turn. "It's almost four o'clock, powder cap. The dwarf said when I can visit it."

"Four-fifteen, if I remember correctly." Lieutenant Colonel Sardis stroked his moustache, apparently attaching great importance to the two black beards, "By the way, there are several qualities in the Southeast Command Post. A good pocket watch, you can pick one after you go back, Master Swordsman."

The oriental grinned: "Thank you, I don't want to lose this precious souvenir, but who would dislike a brand new Ekbatana pocket watch? If there is a cute Punjabi beast spirit, you might as well... "

At this time, a soldier approached the living room and reported: "Lieutenant Colonel Sardis, Lieutenant Colonel Jona, the Pink Hat Dwarf Guards informed that the progress of the project is faster than expected. The flying golem is alert, please take off to watch,,, and they reiterated that Lieutenant Colonel Jonah should take their hot air balloon into the air to direct the work of the engineering magic puppet."

"I see, Lieutenant Colonel Jonah is with us to prepare the flying cavalry to mount." Lieutenant Colonel Sardis waved, stood up and turned to the confused astrologer: "Let’s go and fly on the camel eagle. Go to the sky to see the great deeds you made for Ekbatana with your ingenuity. If you succeed, you will surely succeed. The Flores and the Tocharian Empire will always remember your courage and courage. Merit."

"Uh... of course." Jonah could only respond indiscriminately. He probably guessed what happened before. The Adventist created a method to relieve the volcanic crisis. Now this method is about to be implemented. Before leaving this world, persuade the Presbyterian Church and walked out of Ekbatana to join the Tocharian army, so that the ignorant boy would not show his feet in front of the pink hat dwarf engineer,

He followed everyone out and fumbled on his body. In the hours when the memory was interrupted, the ghost knew what the descendant had done to this body, and the unnamed book's fragmented pages lay in the inner bag intact. , There was a papyrus in his pocket, and Jonah secretly took out the paper and spread it out. It was densely packed with unintelligible formulas, codes, diagrams, and data. From time to time, several inexplicable names came into view: pressure relief, magma The sac, three degrees, the thickness of the crust, speed, toxic gas, river, cooling, the bottom of the calculation paper is written with a line of small characters: Dear "I", if unfortunately the dwarf grabs the pigtail, please use the one on this paper Something bluffs them, believing that "I" can do it, after all, this is science and technology that does not belong to this world,,, the other one I respect,

"Demon..." The astrologer crumpled the paper viciously,

Thirty-six huge camel eagles parked on the lawn outside the door. In addition to Jona’s 13th Flying Cavalry, Lieutenant Colonel Sardis also transferred the 14th and 16th flights. Reinforced troops, five camel cavalry squads also assembled at the east gate of Ekbatana after a few hours’ long journey. Hundreds of flame cavalry soldiers stood in front of them. The beast bowed its head respectfully,

"Thirteenth team carried us up, 14th and 16th teams were on guard on both wings, and the others stood on standby, Lieutenant Colonel Jonah, Master Swordsman, Lieutenant Zarin Cooper, Lieutenant Zalinkut, Your Excellency, Please." Lieutenant Colonel Sardis made an invitation,

"Go, go, this is a lifelong conversation." The Oriental excitedly pulled Jonah's sleeves on the back of the camel eagle, "Oh, ha." Seventy-two wings set off a storm, three Sixteen pairs of sharp eyes looked towards the sky, the hunting wind passed by Jonah’s ears, and Ekbatana quickly became smaller under his body. The red crater and huge furnace appeared in the field of vision,

"At four o'clock, turn left at 30 degrees." Captain Morel gave a whistle and led the 13th Flying Cavalry to the site of the project. Soon he found his target. Outside the rolling hills surrounding Ekbatana, close to the left bank of the Ekbatana River, dozens of steam golems gathered. The tall golem looks like him from this height. Steam puppet toys from my childhood, these tireless machines are carrying various pipes, steel frames, drill bits and unknown accessories to assemble a rather magnificent machine,

A camel eagle fluttered its wings and chased it up, and Asai shouted on the back of the riding beast: "Brother Jona, now you can tell me what the principle is. Why can I cut a hole in the mountain to solve the problem? The crisis of Kala Volcano, is this a special space-time star array."

The young man’s brain began to move fast. From a topographical point of view, the Ekbatana Basin is surrounded by hills, but the lowest part of the basin is also above sea level. It can be said that the country of volcanoes is a big bowl built on the peaks. , The center of the bowl is the towering Ekla volcano. In principle, the volcano means that the earth releases excess energy and discharges heat through lava. In other words, the entire Ekbatana underground is now full of high-pressure magma. While the volcano provides an inexhaustible source of energy for the Flores, it also binds this unique civilization to a time bomb. The space-time star array of the original instructor has been reducing the pressure of the volcanic lava and preventing the volcano. Eruption, then what the descendants are doing now is...

Pressure relief, magma sacs, thickness of the crust, rivers, cooling, and the writing of the devil appeared in front of him. Jonah immediately figured out everything, "Asai, this is not a star array. It is a weak point in the crust that was found through geographic calculations. By piercing the rock formation to release the pressure of the magma sac, and then cooling it with river water, as long as the magma flow in the borehole is controlled, the internal pressure of Ekra Volcano can be stably controlled, and this problem that has plagued the Flores for many years can be solved." While explaining to the Easterners, he was shocked by the grand blueprint of the descendants. Someone tried to control the forces of nature with the power of humans (and the pink hat dwarves). This should have belonged to the seven main gods and even the creator himself. Work,

"Wow." The oriental braids floated in the wind, his eyes widened to the boss: "Great, this should be the work of the seven main gods and even the creator himself. You are not afraid of being **** by the priests. Put on the stakes?"

Damn devil, this is not what I think... Jonah thought aggrieved, but could only smile and said: "Astrologers only believe in the stars, so we are not afraid of religious threats."

The camel eagles arrived at the scene and began to hover in a small area. Four hot air balloons rose up around. Many pink hat dwarves crowded in the hanging basket. At this time, everyone enthusiastically waved their arms towards Jona. From their long or short beards, it can be seen that all the powerful male citizens of Ekbatana have gathered here.

Jonah smiled bitterly and waved in return,

At 4:07, the project is officially ready, the huge machine is assembled, the diamond drill bit exposed in front is facing the hard rock wall, all the engineering dolls are evacuated far, leaving only the previous ones. The high-temperature-resistant magic doll stands behind the steel frame and manipulates the machinery. "Dear Lord Yonah, I hope you will issue the start-up order. This will be the most important day in Ekbatana’s history.,, no, the second On an important day, you will completely rewrite the history of the country of volcanoes." A white-bearded elder poked his head out of the hot-air balloon basket and roared, his voice was full of air, and his tone was respectful and scary,

"Uh, me, so... OK... start." The third-level astrologer said uncertainly,

As soon as the voice fell, the magic puppet shook the huge crank with both hands, and the huge machinery spewed out steam and made a deafening roar. The steam power driven by the magic spar pushed the camshaft of the cylinder head cover, the gear and the gear matched, the crankshaft Drives the worm to rotate, the 7-foot diameter drill bit begins to rotate rapidly, and thick snow-white steam is sprayed from the back of the magic puppet. The ten-yard drill bit moved forward slowly. The diamond drill bit touched the granite rock wall and sank into the rock without any hindrance like tofu. The mechanical vibration intensified, and the magic puppet’s body bent into a bow shape, pushing the drill bit hard.

"How long will it take to drill through." Jonah couldn't help asking,

"...you ask me." The Oriental pointed to his nose,

In fact, the mechanical technology of the Flores has been quite developed. It took only three minutes for this temporarily assembled drilling rig to tilt down and drill through a 14-yard thick rock formation. Na felt that the temperature of the surrounding air began to rise, and the camel eagle under her also raised its feathers, making an uneasy whisper,

"Boom."

Suddenly crimson magma collapsed and burst out from the deep hole, flooding the huge steam machinery in an instant, "keep pushing and expanding the borehole." The powder-hat dwarf elder jumped anxiously in the hanging basket. The rig platform collapsed, and the steam machinery was immediately washed away by the lava. The magic puppet, which was submerged to the waist, was insulated in time and was struggling against the end of the drill bit to maintain balance.

"Push, push, push." ​​Hundreds of male Flores citizens shouted in unison. The hot air balloon began to bump up and down in the stream of hot air. These excited pink hat dwarves actually climbed to the edge of the hanging basket. Shout down fearlessly,

The figure of the demon puppet moved. It moved with difficulty in the viscous magma, one step, two steps... the drill bit was gradually deepening into the rock formations, the flow of the red lava river gradually accelerated, and the poisonous sulfur vapor rose. In the sky,
