Sid explained succinctly: "The levitation emergency release is a device that releases 'levitation' into the cabin in a saturated manner when a sudden stall and descent of the airship is detected."
Yun Wei: "..."
That sounds even scarier.
Isaac, however, said, "If you're falling from a height of 100 meters, levitation techniques probably won't help."
In the continent of Zhuyuan, flying is a very difficult thing to achieve.
The farther away from the ground, the more energy is required.
Previously, Yun and Wei rode on Richard's back, gliding all the way from outside Moonflower City to the Durley River, while the other party only maintained a height of about fifty meters.
Sid smiled faintly upon hearing this, and spread his hands, saying, "That's why I wanted to ask for your opinions. For others, it might indeed be extremely dangerous, but for the two of you—"
Both of them are high-level level 6 professionals, so short-term flight should be a piece of cake for them.
Even if it falls from a height of 100 meters, it should be able to land safely.
"Master, you're absolutely sure you'll succeed!" Even Silver raised his forearm to cheer them on.
The big boy, who was smiling brightly, winked at his expressionless master beside him, conveying a secret signal that only the two of them knew.
But Isaac ignored his solicitousness and subconsciously looked at Yun Wei.
Yun Wei knew that the other party was asking for his opinion.
He knew that even if he hesitated for a second, Isaac would resolutely refuse such a dangerous mission.
“I’m fine with it.” He raised his palm, indicating that he was very willing to accept the task. “However, I know absolutely nothing about this aircraft. I’ll need some training first, right?”
“No need, because it’s really simple. I’ve integrated all the functions into the control panel,” Sid paused for a moment, “It’s the one you helped me etch with mithril the other day. You can even sleep soundly in the cabin, it can automatically plan your flight path.”
Yun Wei: "..."
He had almost forgotten that this was the early Middle Ages.
He struggled to say, "Then, surely there should be an owner's manual or driving guide or something?"
“How could that be?” Sid raised an eyebrow. “Xiao Yunwei, you see me busy from morning till night every day, how could I have time to write that stuff?”
“But…” Yun Wei opened his mouth, but ultimately gave up.
Sure enough, he was still too used to taking a steady and methodical approach.
However, it is very likely that constantly facing various unknown random challenges is the norm for professionals in the Zhuyuan Continent.
However, the alchemist finally had a change of heart and sighed, "Then let's go take a look at the driver's seat first. Anyway, lunch is usually simple."
Everyone agreed.
...
The group arrived in a rather dirty and messy courtyard.
It was lunchtime, and the apprentices were sitting around a table set up in the corner eating.
The ground was littered with tools and parts, so everyone had to be extra careful where they stepped.
Sid sighed almost imperceptibly.
"I've already bought the two houses around here," Silver said, eager to take credit.
To avenge his previous humiliation of being penniless, the wealthy and powerful Grand Duke of Bethlehem made a grand gesture this time.
He happily followed behind the alchemist, chattering away incessantly.
“The north side is bustling with people, and I want to divide it in two, making it a shop in the front and a residence in the back, so that the apprentices and managers can move there.”
“The southern section will be leveled and used as an open-air assembly yard. Ores and waste that are not afraid of sun and rain can also be piled up there, which is also closer to the dumping ground in the south of the city.”
"By the way, most importantly, we can seal off the alley behind the lab and make it exclusively for our people to pass through."
After listening, Sid nodded silently. "I don't care about the north side, you can arrange it yourself. But the south side still won't work, some assembly processes have very strict environmental requirements."
“Uh, so,” the Grand Duke of Bethlehem looked nervously at his lover, “you don’t mean…”
“That’s right, we should at least take over the three houses across the alley.” Sid added calmly, “Considering the need for future expansion, it would be best to take over the land for all nine houses in the entire block.”
Upon hearing this, Silver turned pale with fright.
He stammered, his lips trembling, "But, Sid... I... I didn't bring that many gold coins."
“I told you that’s a long-term plan.” Sid’s lips curled slightly. “Let’s build a semi-enclosed assembly plant on the land to the south first. Also, Julius, how much did you spend in total? I’ll transfer the money to you later.”
"Ah, haha." Seeing Sid laugh, Silver was completely dumbfounded and started laughing along.
He waved his hand dismissively and said, "No need, Sid. Besides, I earn money so you can spend it anyway."
Happiness that can be bought with money is such a simple and genuine joy.
Silver secretly decided that he would carefully review Bethlehem's ledgers and contracts again that afternoon.
This could involve increasing revenue, reducing costs, opening up new trade routes, or optimizing the industrial structure.
In short, he must work hard to earn more money.
Just let Sid be happy every day and do the research he likes.
His happiness was even simpler than Sid's.
His heart would leap with joy whenever Sid was happy.
“Idiot, you don’t understand.” Sid tapped his head with the cylindrical parchment scroll in his hand. “I no longer need to worry about the daily orders from the Liujin family. Now that we have enough manpower, the entire laboratory and workshop can operate and generate a steady stream of revenue.”
"If you don't want to say, that's fine too. I'll just take it as an investment in me."
"What could be happier than watching your dreams come true? I experienced it once before when I was saving up to renovate this house. This time, I'll bring you along, you silly little thing, and do it again."
So that's what Sid meant...
Silver was so happy he was about to faint.
Sid called him "idiot" again!
Honestly, how can they call each other so intimately in broad daylight...
And the most important point.
Could it be that one day he too will be able to participate in Sid's dream?
Silver stood tall and stared blankly into the other person's emerald green eyes.
Even though they are now very close, he still often wonders if he is dreaming.
Such a gentle and intelligent man as Sid was also deeply in love with him.
Silver Julius was truly the luckiest man in the world.
He involuntarily lowered his head and moved closer to his partner, who was waiting for his next move.
"cough."
Suddenly, a stiff and serious cough came from behind him.
The person who was almost within reach suddenly darted away like a startled fawn.
Silver turned back with deep resentment and glared at his clearly unsatisfied master.
He thought, "Indeed, jealousy makes people repulsive."
