Chapter 678 (2/2)
Well, without asking yourself, I finally understand who leaked the secret
Donne rolled his eyes. ”It's not for you. It's business.”
Brian breathed a sigh of relief: ”Oh, great. I knew you wouldn't beat me, big brother. Tell me what happened.”
As soon as Donne raised his eyebrows and looked at his cheap appearance, he suddenly wanted to settle accounts after autumn, but now he was really not in the mood to be serious with him. He said, ”didn't you say that we strongly suggested that we should transform the combine into a chariot?”
Brian was stunned and overjoyed: ”big brother, you finally got the idea!? yes! After these battles, everyone thought that if the combine harvester was modified, it would definitely be a big killer against chaotic creatures!”
”No need.”
Donne shook his head: ”I have a better idea here. You accompany me to gear city.”
”Looking for croto?”
”Yes, he has what we want.”
Donne and Brian are transported to gear city. At the moment, croto has just come back with the repaired Skybreaker and is further repairing the Skybreaker on the apron.
”Steam battle tank? What's that for?”
Croto looked at them mistily: ”that thing is too backward compared with your combine harvester. There is basically no need to develop it before new technological fragments are found.”
The steam combat tank is a weapon restored by kloto from the literature, but due to the power and processing accuracy, the failure rate of the steam combat tank is very high, which can not reach the practical level. At most, it is just a large toy.
”Although the steam combat tank is of no great use, its basic technology has some processing technologies that are useful to us.”
Donne smiled and said, ”I plan to develop a new heavy weapon, which is very similar to steam combat tank. Your existing processing technology is of great reference value.”
”In that case, come.”
Croto left his job and ordered other engineers to repair it as soon as possible, while he took Donne to the workshop where the steam combat tank had been parked.
The volume of steam combat tank is very large, which is three or four times larger than that of tanks on earth. After all, the power is provided by steam engine. If you want to drive such a huge tank, the volume of steam engine will not be too small.
After turning around the steam combat tank, Donne remembered the shape of the tank on earth. Although he didn't understand the internal power structure, he was still very clear about the overall functional characteristics of the tank.
Powerful firepower, flexible mobility and heavy defense.
Croto wiped the grease on his hand and said, ”you can tell me what you think and I'll see what I can do.”
”Don't worry, Brian, look at this thing first. Can Ellington's processing technology produce it now?”
”No problem.”
Brian has just checked the parts of the steam combat tank. The machining accuracy of those parts is not high, and the complex structure is only limited to the steam engine. The technical content in other places is not high.
With Ellington's current industrial processing level, it can not only be made, but also be made better - of course, the processing of some parts still needs to make new industrial machines, but this is another thing.
”That's good.”
Brian is now in charge of Ellington's industry, which is equivalent to the chief engineer. He knows the current industrial level of Ellington best. He says it's no problem, and Donne is relieved.
So Donne took out a sketch of the tank he had drawn and handed it to croto: ”look.”
Croto and Brian's heads came together and looked carefully at what was on the drawing.
”Is this a tank?”
Seeing the data and key points marked by Donne, they were stunned: ”is this a mobile fortress at all?”
Donne shrugged: ”this is a heavy combat tank. It's right to say it's a mobile fortress.”
Croto stared at the structure of the tank and muttered: ”Instead of using new rubber tires with excellent shock absorption performance, the wheels are replaced by crawler design, which is convenient to cross obstacles and adapt to complex terrain... Armor up to 30mm thick is enough to resist the attack of any sword... The engraved defense magic array can resist magic below level 7... The power provided by the new wind power magic engine can enable the chariot to obtain up to 300 kilometers per hour The speed of... Hiss! My friend, are you sure it's true? ”
”Of course, the wind power magic engines produced now are of single engine structure. If you want to improve the power, you only need a composite structure design. Four magic arrays are built in one engine, which makes the power more powerful.”
”No, I mean, are you really going to develop this weapon?”
Kloto looked at Donne strangely: ”I feel that when this thing is brought out, it will completely subvert the war form of prandal.”
Brian glanced sideways at croto. ”Isn't he subverting enough now?”
Croto slapped the forehead. Yes, if the things Donne got out were used in internal war, they would have crushed everything.
”OK, but the armor of this thing is so thick, it must be very heavy. The power requirements of the magic engine are so high, and the requirements for the magic crystal are also high. The consumption must be very huge. It's a big guy who burns money.”
Donne said carelessly, ”yes, it must burn money, but the effect must be very good.”
Sure enough, it's a local tyrant
Cloto sighed.
