Chapter 734 Tsunami Generator
Hodge was stunned when he heard this.
After a moment's pause, he suddenly asked, "Is your lord related to Grand Duke Alvarez?"
This time it was the young man's turn to be surprised: "You knew this? They are indeed distant relatives."
"I see." Hodge's face twitched. He had some psychological trauma towards Alvarez.
——Back then, he pushed forward desperately, but still failed to capture the Duchy before Alvarez surrendered.
Now Hodge's eyes turned sinister as he looked towards the city not far away: he was worried that if he didn't attack, he would have no chance.
There really is no chance.
The news about the expeditionary force and Blood Harbor spread more and more widely in the city, and it happened that old Vance was discharged from the hospital at this time.
Old Vance became a celebrity when he returned to the city. Many people went to him for advice. Every time, a group of people surrounded him and asked him to talk about his injury and Blood Harbor.
Blood Harbor, this city has also become a hot topic among people.
There were many hired workers who followed old Vance to the south. Although it was just a glimpse, the city was deeply imprinted in their hearts.
What’s interesting is that everyone describes the Blood Harbor differently.
"It's a city of giants, giant steel beasts roaming the city, and there are forests of cement. What is cement? I don't know, I heard it from the adults."
"Blood Harbor is a city in the sky, with thick chimneys reaching up to the sky and giant whales swimming in the air!"
"I heard there's an underground city in Blood Harbor. No, not just heard about it, I saw with my own eyes many people going underground through a gate."
Blood Harbor, this bizarre city, has aroused people's great curiosity.
So one afternoon, Hodge saw a group of young men standing in front of the expeditionary camp.
After a while of shoving and jostling, a young man finally stood up and asked Hodge shyly, "Sir, do you sell tickets to Blood Harbor?"
The expeditionary force built railways to all parts of the northern border, and such stories took place in towns and cities.
The North is where towns gather together. Blood Harbor and Castel have brought new breath to this land, allowing the people here to experience a different world.
Everything is changing quietly.
But at the center of the vortex, there is a different scene.
Castel has been getting busier lately.
After Gaia came back, she took over the R&D and military production lines. The most important industrial parts, such as steel mills, weapons factories, and explosives factories, began to operate at full capacity.
It is said that the prince has sent a declaration of war to the empire, and the first batch of troops has also set out. Their weapons and equipment were provided by Castel.
Unlike the Skitarii, Hughes provided Isabella's army with more than just weapons. He customized a full set of equipment, from guns and ammunition to uniforms, belts, and even water bottles and toiletries.
Not all of these were produced by Castells, but one thing was certain - the standardization of military logistics.
Castel produces according to this standard equipment, as do factories in other places, even factories in other parts of the Principality of Tis that are not under the control of Hughes.
In this way, the materials are universal, the tolerances are controllable, and the quality is stable. Perhaps it is not flexible enough in some details, but it successfully stabilizes the lower limit of military supplies.
The quality of the troops recruited by Isabella is uneven. This method of raising the lower limit can effectively improve the actual combat effectiveness of the army.
Moreover, unified logistical supply can greatly improve logistical efficiency. Isabella, who is busy with military campaigns all day long, knows this very well, so she fully supports it.
Now the basis of mutual trust between Hughes and Isabella has been greatly improved. The specific manifestation is that this cooperation has deepened and the two sides have begun to have more contacts rather than limited cooperation with mutual vigilance.
While the factory was operating at full capacity, preparations for the great expedition were also being made in full swing.
After the storm generator was successfully finalized and put into mass production, the tsunami generator gradually began to move out of the laboratory.
For safety reasons, the first batch of experiments were not conducted in Castel, but in
Gem Bay.
Gem Bay, the former pirate paradise, has been empty for a long time after being sent away by the Pirate King.
Due to the war between Blood Harbor and the North, this area has never been the main development direction.
It was not until the end of the war and the beginning of large-scale expansion that this place gradually developed.
Although Gem Bay is still mainly an experimental site today, there are already many mines in operation. Workers and researchers have built houses and gradually gathered to form a town.
Who knows, after some time, maybe this place will become a prosperous port like Blood Harbor.
However, there are relatively few permanent residents here now, and evacuation is relatively convenient. Even if something really happens, the losses will not be great.
It's just right as a testing ground for tsunami generators.
Unlike storm generators, the requirements for tsunami generators are more stringent.
First of all, you need sea water - you can't create the sea out of thin air after all.
Apart from that, there is the first troublesome point: this device seems to be only useful near a stellar furnace.
The researchers of the Fire Moth have looked up a lot of information. Even in the old Church of Poseidon, it was extremely difficult to cause a tsunami, and the cost was also exaggerated.
And in Castel, only the stellar furnace can bear such consumption.
Fortunately, the tsunami generator has a very large impact range and its positioning is relatively accurate, so there will be no mistakes like trying to create a river and flooding the entire Blood Harbor.
In order to achieve this effect, beacons need to be buried in the sea all the way, which can almost only be done by the Banshee. No ship can remain stable in a tsunami without capsizing, even a giant cargo ship will be in danger.
At this moment, Zeus was standing on the beach with a group of banshees, while Gaia and others boarded the airship and watched from afar.
After all, Zeus has the ability to survive underwater provided by the symbiotic contract, so there is no danger if the tsunami really sweeps him away.
He moves faster in the water than a tsunami
As for the banshees, almost all of them were dispatched, lining up from Castel's star furnace all the way to Gem Bay, with one standing every few meters in the sea to ensure that the mental link could be passed through.
"What's going on with the stellar furnace?"
"Tata is directing the operation here. The equipment has been set up and can be put into trial operation."
"What about Gem Bay?"
"Report, all personnel have been evacuated, important supplies have been secured, and experiments can be carried out."
"Okay, each group, report your numbers."
"One group is normal."
"Group 2 is normal."
"Everything is normal, start generating tsunami!"
Zeus looked at the calm sea in front of him and issued an order.
