Following Dennis' enthusiastic invitation, Orlando quickly got on the train and experienced the "comfort" and "convenience" of the alchemical steam train. It was not only slow, but also jolted...

The alchemy vehicle produced by the alchemy workshop also has the problem of shaking, but according to Lord Lin En, if a tire can be added to the wheel and the ground can be made smoother, this problem can be alleviated to a great extent.

"What is that roulette wheel?" Dennis did not rush to ask about the internal combustion engine. Instead, he pointed to a huge and towering roulette wheel in the distance and asked curiously.

The moment he entered the Yieta Harbor, he noticed this thing. It was more than 20 meters high and was slowly turning without stopping.

"That's a waterwheel, used to irrigate farmland. Lord Lin is very concerned about those civilians..." Orlando explained with a smile. Almost everyone who came in asked the same question, so he was already familiar with answering it, and quickly introduced the principle of this thing to Dennis.

In fact, the spokes are rotated with the help of the inertia of the water's movement, and the water buckets filled with river water are lifted up step by step. When they reach the top, the water buckets will naturally tilt, and the water will be injected into the aqueduct and finally flow into the irrigated farmland.

"Using the power of nature itself...what an ingenious design!" Dennis nodded and exclaimed.

"I heard that the wizards of the Iyeta School have created an alchemical instrument that can reach a speed of 90 kilometers per hour. Is that true?" Raphael on the side asked the first question.

He was very interested in Lynn's new research, so he took a ride this time. He was also representing Parliament to evaluate the internal combustion engine.

"Of course it's true. In fact, there was a new breakthrough yesterday. The maximum speed limit has been increased to 110 kilometers!" Orlando explained.

One hundred and ten kilometers? Why is it getting more and more outrageous?

Dennis frowned, wondering if the other party was exaggerating.

Behind him, the members of the Alchemy Association also had indignant looks on their faces, but before they could say anything in response, a loud explosion soon rang out.

It was as if thunder had exploded in the sky, and the ground seemed to shake violently.

"What's wrong? Could it be an earthquake?" Dennis said subconsciously.

The wizard's land is a huge island standing on the sea. Earthquakes occur every few years. The inspiration of vibration magic is based on this strange phenomenon, although the elementalists have not figured out its source so far.

However, Dennis soon discovered that this was probably not an earthquake, because a billowing smoke floated out from the sky above the base in front of the alchemy workshop in the distance.

"Maybe an alchemical instrument exploded..." an alchemist said gloatingly. The earliest steam engines could also have problems like boiler explosions.

"No, it should be Dean Lin En and the others who are experimenting with the power of gunpowder..." Orlando explained while rubbing his ears.

gunpowder?

Everyone present was stunned for a moment.

Only then did Dennis realize that despite such a big commotion, the townspeople on the road were not panicked at all, as if they were used to it.

Orlando did not explain. After all, he didn't know much about this thing. He only knew that it was another very powerful weapon.

With many doubts, Dennis and others soon arrived at an open space in front of the alchemy workshop. A large group of people were gathered here. The ground in the distance was bumpy, as if it had been bombarded by fire magic.

"Long time no see, Master Raphael!" Lin En saw Raphael getting off the car at a glance and greeted him with a smile.

"It's been a while indeed, but I've heard your name a lot in Greenrill." Raphael also laughed, then turned around and introduced him to Lin En.

"This is Dennis, the inventor of the alchemical steam engine."

Lin En's eyes suddenly brightened. Being able to invent a steam engine independently, he is definitely a talent!

"It's a great honor to meet you, Master Dennis. Your steam engine is definitely an epoch-making invention." Lynn stretched out his hand and shook hands with Dennis, already thinking about how to keep him in Harbor Town.

Dennis frowned, and for a moment he couldn't tell whether the other person's words were sarcastic or sincere.

The members of the Alchemy Society in the rear obviously took Lin En's words as a provocation, and their faces instantly turned gloomy.

One of the wizards immediately stood up and said with an unwavering expression, "Sir Lin, we came to Yieta just to see if your internal combustion engine is really as magical as the rumors say..."

"Of course no problem, but please wait a moment, the last experiment of the day will be completed soon." Lynn nodded casually, then looked at Darren beside him, signaling him to arrange the last experiment.

Several halflings immediately got busy, stuffing a pile of black "stones" into wooden barrels, and then piled up a lot of packaged white phosphorus and gravel and placed them hundreds of meters away.

Darren moved very carefully, as he knew very well how dangerous this thing was.

However, after putting away the gunpowder and retreating to a safe area, the expressions of the halflings became expectant and they all turned to look at Lynn.

"Dean Lin, can we start?" Lydia asked excitedly. When the other party nodded, she took out a rocket and placed it on the specially made longbow.

Lydia is only about 1.3 meters tall, and the longbow in her hand is not much smaller than her. She looks a little funny, but the powerful force brought by her racial talent is no joke.

The longbow was pulled straight into a full moon, pointing to the sky. As the bowstring was released, a flaming red arrow flew out in a parabola and headed straight for the wooden barrel in the distance.

The wizards watching covered their ears.

What was going on? The wizards of the Alchemy Society were confused, but Dennis remembered the loud noise he had just heard.

At the same time, the rocket had penetrated the wooden board, and the black powder inside was quickly ignited and then exploded.

Boom~ It was as if thunder exploded in my ears, accompanied by dazzling flames rising into the sky. The raging flames instantly covered the surrounding land. Flames and mud were flying, and the target standing next to it was instantly blown into pieces.

Dennis could clearly feel the heat wave sweeping over him. His ears were buzzing. When the smoke cleared, the grass in front of them had turned into scorched earth. Because of the white phosphorus mixed in it, the flames continued to burn, almost turning the surrounding area into a sea of ​​fire...
