Chapter 2087 Inventions
In the library of Guanda University, in the northern suburbs of Tivian.
At noon, in a remote corner of the library, Dorothy was still sitting in her seat, working hard to complete the design drawings of the internal combustion engine. The pile of books in front of her were all basic knowledge reserves.
"Miss Dorothea... what is this machine you designed... used for?" Sitting opposite Dorothea, Nephnesse asked curiously while looking at the several parts drawings in her hand. As an archaeologist, she was completely confused by these mechanical drawings.
"It's hard to explain the purpose of this thing to you right now. You'll know it when the real thing is made." Dorothy responded to Nefernis.
"Is that so... Miss Dorothea, you are also a mechanic. By the way, you said that you are a student at Guanda University. Is this what you studied?" Listening to Dorothea's words, Nephnesse continued to respond. She did not expect that a high-level member of the secret society would study mechanics. Generally speaking, wouldn't identities such as archaeologists, folklorists, and historians be more in line with his positioning?
"I learned all this on my own, not in class." Dorothy responded calmly, and Nephnis opened her eyes wide in disbelief after hearing this.
"Self-study... Miss Dorothea, you studied so many books by yourself..."
"One of my extraordinary abilities is to speed up my learning. These books may seem numerous, but in fact, they are nothing to me." Dorothy replied calmly, continuing to use the tools in her hands to draw. Listening to her words, Nephnis couldn't help but nodded.
"An extraordinary ability that can speed up learning efficiency... That's great..."
Looking at the secret book in front of her, Nephnis said with emotion, thinking back to her own abilities of seeing ghosts and communicating with the dead, she actually felt that Dorothy's abilities were great, at least it made her daily life much more convenient.
Nephnesse thought so, and then began to look at the drawings drawn by Dorothy curiously, one by one, as if she wanted to figure out what kind of machine it was, while Dorothy continued to draw the drawings.
Dorothy had long thought of making money by inventing and creating, and the internal combustion engine was a very critical prerequisite technology for the series of inventions she envisioned. Fortunately, Dorothy herself knew the working principle of the internal combustion engine in her previous life. After supplementing the basic knowledge with the high-speed learning ability of the knower, it was not difficult to reproduce it. The internal combustion engine invented by Dorothy at present was a machine she reinvented based on the principles of her previous life and combined with this knowledge.
The first industrial revolution was the steam revolution. It has been more than 50 years since the beginning of the first industrial revolution in the world. During these 50 years of development, the experience and knowledge accumulated by various disciplines and various industrial standards are enough to start the second industrial revolution, that is, the electrical revolution. What is lacking now is a few key technological breakthroughs, which will bring about major changes in the whole world. The internal combustion engine is one of them, in addition to which is the widespread use of electricity.
Dorothy was well aware of the enormous wealth contained in this series of inventions that revolutionized the era, and she was now ready to start working on a great inventor's trumpet.
With these inventions, Dorothy could foresee endless wealth and she might never have to worry about money again.
"In addition to the internal combustion engine... there is also the reform and widespread use of electricity, such as high-voltage electricity... electric lights... telephones... These things are all known in principle. As long as you have the learning ability of a master, you can easily come up with these things. By then, I may be able to single-handedly promote the world's second industrial revolution..."
Dorothy was thinking about this while drawing the blueprint. She couldn't help but feel a little excited when she thought that she might be able to change the whole world. It seemed that she had seen the scene that after several years, there would no longer be carriages running on the streets of Tivian but cars, the street lights would all be replaced by electric lights, there would be electric poles everywhere, and public trams would run on the streets.
With this excitement, Dorothy continued to draw the blueprints of the internal combustion engine she designed. Now this series of drawings are almost completed. After completion, Dorothy plans to make a corpse doll and take it to the relevant factory and technical workers to make a sample.
In this way, Dorothy drew her own design carefully. Her work in this regard went very smoothly. If nothing unexpected happens, the complete design of the world's first internal combustion engine will be born this afternoon.
Just as Dorothy was working on her design with great interest, the system's voice suddenly rang in her mind.
'Officer, my current behavior has a significant impact and may attract the attention of a powerful deity...it may cause unpredictable and serious consequences...Warning, my current behavior has a significant impact and may attract the attention of a powerful deity...it may cause unpredictable and serious consequences.'
The system's emotionless warning sound echoed in Dorothy's mind. Hearing this sound, Dorothy was completely stunned for a moment. Her pen stopped on the paper, and she was completely stunned.
"What? A powerful god is watching?!"
Dorothy thought in astonishment, then she looked at the drawing in front of her, her mind was in a mess, and she was completely stunned.
Dorothy frowned and covered her forehead with her hands. Her eyes stared at the things on the drawing in front of her. After staring for a long time, her expression became extremely complicated. Finally, after standing up and spending half a day, Dorothy calmed down her thoughts.
"What the hell? How could I invent an internal combustion engine that would attract the attention of a powerful deity? I heard that... it seems that the impact it caused was too great..."
Dorothy pondered in her heart. She knew that she had known about the system's reminder function for a long time. When she was learning the Time Slow Dragon Roar, the system reminded Dorothy that a Time Slow Dragon Roar over a large range would cause the divine gaze. So she was not surprised by the system's reminder function just now. What surprised her was that the factor that triggered this function was the invention of the internal combustion engine...
'According to the system, if a wide-ranging and far-reaching impact is caused on the world, it will trigger the gaze of the gods, and the gods will cast their gaze on the one causing the impact. This is true for ultra-large areas with a radius of more than ten kilometers... It seems that the invention of the internal combustion engine is also like this... And it seems that the invention of the internal combustion engine is even more serious, and it directly indicates that it is the gaze of a powerful god.
"Indeed... the internal combustion engine is an important technology of the Second Industrial Revolution. Once invented and widely used, it will bring about a major change in the entire society. If other inventions follow suit, the Second Industrial Revolution will be complete... The gods will surely pay attention to such a revolutionary social change..."
Dorothy thought so, and this was what she thought in her mind as to why the gods would pay attention to the invention of the internal combustion engine.
"If that's the case, it's going to be a bit difficult... If I invent the internal combustion engine now, the gods will immediately target me, and I don't know what the consequences will be... I can't guess the attitude of the gods at all. I'm only a black rank now, if the gods have any bad ideas about me, I can't resist at all..."
