The design process of the tank went very smoothly, Donn provided the basic structural design drawings, then Kloto provided sound engineering advice for modifications, and Brian evaluated the overall cost and quantity from the perspective of the chief engineer...... Well, everyone should have seen that Brian's skill point has obviously been crooked. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As a dwarf in the name of blacksmithing, but now he is about to become an engineer, this is really a bad development.

"Here, in addition to the main guns you mentioned, I think it is also necessary to add some lethality to the front of the tank."

Pointing to the front of the tank, Kloto said, "Instead of making armor plates, it is better to add the kind of winch of the combine harvester, which looks more intimidating than the direct impact force." ”

Tang En thought about the feasibility for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Although the power of the main cannon is huge, if the number of chaotic creatures is too large and breaks through the defense line to close range, it is obviously not enough to rely on the impact force to crush it, the blessed winch can efficiently crush those guys, and then the heavy tracks can further crush them, and the killing efficiency will be greatly increased.

"And this, although the power of large-caliber machine guns is very strong, but the number of bullets is also a problem, the internal stock of tanks is limited, and it is necessary to consider the defensive weapons after the bullets are empty, what do you think about installing a large wheel? Equip four swords to spin and completely block the enemy's attack. ”

Tang En thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's not necessary, it's completely cumbersome, the problem of bullet capacity can be solved by using space equipment, and I'm not afraid at all." ”

the local tyrant!

What Donn said made so much sense that Krotto was speechless.

Because I'm afraid no one else but him could come up with that much space equipment to arm a mass-produced weapon - and only for reloading ammunition supplies.

"Okay."

Krotto shrugged and said, "What about the dwarf shrinking ray or freezing ray?" Interested? ”

Don was overjoyed: "Of course I'm interested!" But do you have the energy to produce those two weapons? ”

The Gnome Shrink Ray and the Gnome Freezing Ray are very powerful and can do unexpected things when used in the right places.

"Can't ......"

"Then you talk about eggs!"

Both of these weapons are remnants of ancient technology, and now the gnomes have not cracked the technical principles at all, and can only stitch together a small number of finished products through the parts excavated in the ruins, which is definitely not enough for chariots.

In the end, Don had no choice but to give up on this tempting idea.

"The weight of the armored car is too heavy, will it affect mobility? If you add floating stones, you can greatly reduce the weight of the armored car. ”

"Your own weight is also a weapon, but you're right, I'm thinking about whether I can make the effect of the floating stone controllable."

Donne, of course, knows the effect of the floating stone, if the weight of the armored car is reduced, then the speed does not fly? However, the weight of the tank itself is also an important indicator of its lethality and defense, the heavier the tank, the less likely it is to be overturned by the enemy, and it has stronger resistance in the face of frontal impact, if it is too light, it is likely that the charge of a large chaos creature can knock the tank out.

Kroto frowned: "Controllable? Can it be done? ”

"It's hard at the moment."

Tang En shook his head, the composition of the floating stone is very complicated, and they have not yet figured out which component of the floating stone can reduce the weight of the object.

In the Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, there is now a special research room for the study of demonic stones and floating stones, those wild mages grind two special stones into dust, and then analyze the components in them, Tang En's goal is to eliminate the useless parts, only extract the active ingredients in them, and then find a way to purify, polymerize, and create real anti-gravity materials and anti-magic materials.

It's a pity that the progress of that lab is quite slow, and it wasn't until the Master Engineer Glasses that the progress was slightly accelerated.

In order to achieve the controllability of the floating stone, and more importantly, how to effectively isolate the effect of the floating stone, Don asked them to try all kinds of metals, minerals, plants, and even spells, he believed that there must be something that could block the effect of the floating stone, just as lead could block radiation.

"Saying it means not saying it......"

Don spread his hands: "But at least there is one direction to go." ”

The three of them chatted while refining the design of the tank, and the final design of the tank was very different from the tank on Earth.

The tank's main turret remains the same, the machine gun on it remains the same, the way of observation has changed: Donn has eliminated the viewing window, and in Brandal, where there is no computer or radar, the best option is still the Arcane Eye.

The riot armor at the front of the tank has been modified into a saw-bladed winch that rotates as the tank advances, wringing enemies and plants in its path to pieces.

The tracks have not changed, but heavy deck plates have been added to the sides to protect them.

At the rear of the tank is a row of adjustable vents hidden under the armor plates, and Donne's wind-powered magic engine for the tank has a full four blast holes, providing a powerful engine that provides tremendous power to the tank, and the adjustable vents can be adjusted up and down to reduce or increase the pressure on the ground depending on the situation.

After the three of them finalized the design drawings, they immediately began to work separately, Croto asked the various processing factories to start making various parts and provide reference indicators, Don went back to make the high-power wind power magic engine, and Brian needed to record those processing methods and indicators here, and the Ellington side also had to produce a batch of the same mother machine.

Tanks would certainly not be built in Ellington, and Donn had already planned for the development of such heavy weapons in the arsenals of the Blackstone Caverns, which were unobtrusive and had a lot of cheap labor to work hard - the Dark Elves and Redstone Dwarves only needed food to be fed......

After returning to the Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, Don immediately began to work on the development of the Great Meritorious Magic Energy Engine, and he had already had a specific idea, but now he is only implementing it, so there is no difficulty.

The original single-wind powered magic engine was designed to simulate the engine of a jet aircraft, and the two options for increasing the power were nothing more than increasing the output of the magic array, or increasing the number of magic arrays and wind tunnels.

In the end, Donn chose to increase the number of air ducts.

There are two reasons, one is that simply expanding the output power of the magic array can easily cause the engine to be overloaded, especially in the booster heating chamber, if the pressure and temperature are too high, even the universal alloy may melt again; Second, the magic array engraved on the substrate is not controlled by the magician himself after all, and it lacks flexibility, and too much magic input can easily cause the collapse of the magic array.

Converting a single high-power magic engine to a complex structure avoids this and has a very unique point: fault tolerance.

That's right, during the operation of the tank, even if a magic array collapses, the remaining magic arrays will not affect each other, and can continue to operate and continue to provide power support for the tank, effectively avoiding the danger of tank paralysis.

The four wind-powered magic engines connected side by side looked very unremarkable and aesthetically pleasing to the eye, but Donn tested them and was very satisfied with his design.

These four engines are both monolithic and independent, and they are usually powered by a high-grade mana crystal, but if the mana path fails, they will draw the mana from the standard mana crystals they are loaded with and keep them working properly, and the conversion process is very smooth, and there is basically no possibility of power loss.

The advantage of magic and alchemy is here, as long as you have ideas and strength, you can realize your own wild ideas, unlike the technology on earth, even if you have ideas, you may have to verify many basic theories and determine the feasibility before it can be realized.

After getting the high-power magic energy engine, Tang En easily got the corresponding console out again, and this console will be equipped with a fire control system in the later stage, and a special gunner will be responsible for controlling the weapon module and defense module.

"Well, it would be much more convenient if I had a computer."

Don put away the things he had done, and smashed his mouth a little regretfully, without an intelligent system, many things can't be realized, and they must be controlled by manpower, which is too troublesome.

And now the only thing that can solve this problem is probably the alchemy technology mastered by Angus.

In the long process of alchemy development, there is an artificial soul technology in the commonly used alchemy puppet technology, which can already realize the customization of instructions, which is equivalent to the most basic mechanical language set by the computer during development, and Tang En feels that this thing can be used as a computer.

From the past to the present, if the rules customized by those alchemists have been passed down, Tang En believes that the artificial soul may have already formed a set of effective command writing methods, as long as he adds some orders he wants to achieve on this basis, he can achieve his goal.

As soon as he thought of this, Don was full of complaints, because Angus had disappeared for more than half a month and had not returned.

Although it was Don who used the King's Staff of Illuth to divert Angus's attention in order to protect the teleportation array technology, this guy said that he went to check the information, and it turned out to be gone.

Could it be that this guy really wants to fix that thing and come back?

"Donne! Isn't it time for us to settle accounts with the Broken Isles!? I almost lost this old life, I don't want you to give me some benefits! ”

Angus didn't wait, but waited for Jean, who was back alive after recuperation.

After this guy recovered, he finally came to settle accounts with Don. (To be continued.) )
