Chapter 494 Remote Guidance Technology
Riverside, Idar Public University.
Several days of snowfall have given the vast campus a new coat of clothing. The white snow covers the garden lawn. Under the scorching sun, the melted snow drips along the eaves, creating ripples in the puddles on the ground.
Suddenly, a flickering black color seemed to appear in the snow-covered grass. Goose-feather-like snowflakes seemed to be dug out by something and were flying in the air more than ten centimeters above the ground.
After a long time, an Almis snow rabbit that was raised on the campus finally poked its head out stealthily from the snow.
There were a lot of snowflakes on the long fur that was as smooth as silk. The snow rabbit shook its round body vigorously and finally pulled itself out of the snow.
As the few little guys in Idar Public University, this group of Almis snow hares on campus have always been the objects of daily feeding by students, so their bodies are obviously much rounder than those of snow hares living in the wild.
The cute eyes look silly, and except for a pair of gray-black ears, the snow rabbit is covered with a layer of four or five centimeters long snow-white silky hair.
It looked around vigilantly - although the snow rabbit could not see anything due to its severe myopia, it could still roughly identify its location.
Oops, we're heading west again...
It slapped its head with its short forelimbs in annoyance, then stuck out its butt and quickly slipped towards the east side of the campus.
Even though the snow rabbit's IQ is only equivalent to that of a five to seven-year-old child, it has already formed a clear understanding - there are many two-legged animals in the east that like to feed it food.
The concept of the east campus and the west campus is actually just a vague division.
In accordance with the habit developed over a period of time, the people of Idar prefer to regard the Radcliffe Reading Room as the center of the campus and divide the campus of Idar Public University into two parts, east and west, along the central axis.
The eastern part of the campus is where the population is more densely populated.
The accommodation and dining area for students and teachers from various departments is located in the northeastern part of the campus, while the teaching area where students usually attend classes and study is located in the southeast corner of the campus.
As for the west side of campus…
In the campus area west of the Radcliffe Reading Room, most of the scientific research institutes and experimental sites of the Idar Empire are located. Since this area is patrolled by Idar agents and military police all year round and is not a front-line teaching venue on weekdays, this group of classical buildings located in the southwest of the campus is probably the place with the least traffic on campus.
only……
Small traffic does not mean weak presence. The West Campus of Idar Public University may be the area with the strongest presence in the entire campus! From the popularization of the magic industry to the most advanced magic technology of this era...
The changes that have taken place in the Idar Empire during this period are almost all inextricably linked to these research institutes located at the West Campus of Idar Public University! That is why almost every student studying at Idar Public University has a common dream - to become a researcher at the West Campus of Idar Public University after graduation! Because only in this way can they stand at the forefront of this era, explore those unknown areas, and create a better era...
…
Although the snowfall that had lasted for several days had stopped, the cold winter wind was still howling.
Perhaps in order to cool down the increasingly urgent and turbulent situation on the mainland, this winter is obviously much colder than in the past. The cold wind hits the outer windows of the laboratory, causing the transparent glass windows to shake.
Wright wrapped himself up tightly.
He wore a thick cashmere felt hat on his head and the latest cashmere scarf from Idar City around his neck. It was made of two-color cashmere dyed in dark green and navy blue, which looked warm and elegant.
While blowing hot air on his hands, he pushed open the door of the laboratory. On the sign at the door of the laboratory was engraved a line of very low-key but touching small words - Idar Magic Technology Laboratory.
As soon as he opened the door, a warm air rushed towards him, making Wright feel much more comfortable.
"Hello, teacher!"
"Professor Wright..."
As one of the first students taught by Bruno himself, Wright has now become the head of the Idar Magic Technology Laboratory. He is also another representative figure of the Idar School after Arnel Blood, the director of the Magic Industry Research Institute.
Anel's team focuses on the popularization and application of magic technology in the fields of industry and people's livelihood; Wright's team is responsible for the research and development of the most core magic technology of the Idar Empire.
The two complement each other and achieve twice the result with half the effort, and both have made outstanding contributions to this land.
"Has the previous problem been solved?"
Wright asked with great concern as he pulled off the scarf around his neck.
"The weight problem has been solved, according to the plan you mentioned the day before yesterday, but... when it stays in the air, it is still difficult to control its internal stability." A researcher who looked quite old said, "... and the accuracy needs to be adjusted."
"Everyone!"
Wright looked around and said seriously, "I think you have read the Idar Daily these days, right?"
Hearing this, most of the young people in the laboratory raised their heads excitedly.
"The Idar Air Force is so cool!"
"Fuck! I've long disliked those charlatans in the Church of Light!"
No matter what position you are in or what industry you are in, as the influence of Idar Daily continues to expand in this land, reading the newspaper every day has almost become a lifestyle habit for the vast majority of Idar people.
Before and after meals, people always read a short paragraph of the day's newspaper to feel satisfied.
so……
When Wright mentioned this, the news about the Idar Air Force's air strike on the holy city of Bethlehem a few days ago had already reached the ears of most Idar people, and everyone present naturally seemed extremely excited.
After the discussion among the crowd subsided a little, Wright continued, "Everyone, the arrival of this airstrike means that the conflict between the Empire and the Church of Light has been exposed!"
"Although the pseudo-holy city of Bethlehem has suffered a blow, the Crusaders of the Church of Light are still preparing for war. The Idar military is facing considerable pressure along the long border!"
"And the research we do is even more vital to the Idar military!"
At this point, Wright's meaning was already very clear: "In the entire empire, we are the only team that is developing long-range guided weapons with the assistance of the military!"
"The sooner we come up with perfect research results, the sooner the pressure on the Idar military will be reduced, and the threats and losses that the empire may face will also be reduced."
That’s right, long-range guidance! The Wright team’s current research goal is to develop a super weapon that transcends the times.
In fact, according to common sense, with the current technological level and research capabilities of the Idar Empire, it is simply unable to support this level of research.
However……
The uniqueness of this world and the buff that Bruno possesses provide a new possibility for this new empire.
Magic power + spiritual power + Babylon Tower of Babel! This is what Wright relied on to conduct this research! You know, the principles of wonder addition for wonder buildings like the Babylon Tower of Babel and Stonehenge, which can directly affect the real society at the material level, are traceable.
For a long time, whether it is the Stonehenge that can transmit and gather magical power, or the Tower of Babel that can send out divine power signals, both are the objects of intensive research and analysis by Idar researchers.
Although the Idar people have not yet fully understood the deep logic and internal principles of the effects of these two types of buildings, this does not affect the Wright team's expansion of exploration into other fields based directly on them.
after all……
Just like a programmer learning C++, there is no need to learn how to make a computer while learning programming; a chef preparing meals in the kitchen does not need to start from growing vegetables and raising livestock.
Therefore, when Wright's team was researching long-range guidance technology, there was no need to fully understand the source and composition of mental power. They could just use it directly.
Of course, although Wright and others temporarily regard it as a theorem, it does not mean that research on mental power itself is not important.
Mainly due to the current situation faced by the Idar Empire and the pressure on the Idar military, the Wright team had no time to get to the bottom of the matter.
The principle of remote guidance technology is actually not complicated, at least in this world where spiritual power and magic exist.
Through the Tower of Babel, the spiritual power of the Ebbinghaus snail was spread to every corner of the continent.
Relying on the unique thinking mode and brain structure of the Ebbinghaus snail, the continent covered by the mental power was divided into countless small blocks and nodes - with the Tower of Babel as the center point of the plane coordinate system, different locations were set with different coordinates.
After being integrated and sorted out by the Tower of Babel, these different forms of plane coordinates will be stored in a special memory structure within the tower.
Determine the specific location based on the mental force coordinates! This is not only the manufacturing principle of long-distance communication devices, but also an important theoretical basis for long-distance guidance research.
but!
Remote guidance technology is far more complicated than communication!
Because just having an accurate coordinate is not enough, the Idar people also need a power device that can launch the magic bomb to the predetermined location! This is the first difficulty faced by the Wright team.
Even if it has a power device, it is still necessary to ensure that the magic bomb can maintain the stability of its internal structure during the process of high-speed movement and will not explode in mid-air.
This is the second difficulty we have to face.
Even if all the above conditions are met, with the current technological level of the Idar people, can they determine the exact location of the magic bomb through the mental network covering the continent while it is moving at high speed? This is the third difficulty that the Wright team has to solve.
In addition, can its launch speed and the power device used enable it to maintain high-speed flight for a long time? Can the long-range guidance device adjust the air posture of the magic bomb in time after the launch? Although the existence of magic and mental power allows the Idar people's technology tree to grow in a direction that others can hardly imagine under the careful care of Bruno and others, even so, long-range guidance technology is still a barrier that is difficult to cross!
At first glance, it seems to be right in front of us, but in actual operation there are countless difficulties that need to be explored.
so……
Not only the Idar military was anxious, but Light himself and the members of Light's team were also extremely anxious! When Light's slightly urgent voice fell, a researcher stood up with excitement: "Professor Light, don't worry, we understand our responsibilities and will definitely give the empire a satisfactory answer before the war breaks out!"
Seeing this, others present also said:
"Boss, the latest power device has begun to be debugged. Although the attack distance is relatively short, only a few dozen kilometers, it is much more reliable than a single magic cannon bombardment."
Just when Wright was very satisfied with the effect of his words, a sudden suggestion made his face become solemn...
"Teacher Wright..."
The young man who spoke was Wright's favorite student, Gavial Madoc.
Gavial Maddock of the Magic Technology Laboratory and Lennon Cohen of the Magic Industry Research Institute, these two young men were both outstanding talents selected from the first batch of students at Idar Public University. Before they graduated, they had already participated in extremely core research projects as assistant researchers.
"I have an immature idea about the stability of this long-range magic bomb." Gavial Madoc said a little nervously.
"Tell me first!"
Wright knew his student's temperament very well. Although he was usually introverted, the suggestions he put forward were all well-thought-out plans.
"Since this kind of ultra-high-speed launch makes it difficult to ensure the stability of the magic bomb, and it is easy to cause the energy storage and compression array inside the magic crystal to explode before reaching the target location, then... can we directly abandon this method of using magic crystals and magic arrays to store energy and then detonate it?"
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but look surprised.
You know, most of the magic crystal bombs of the Idar army nowadays are based on magic crystals, and they explode through magic storage arrays, compression arrays and detonation arrays.
But according to Gavill Maddock, he wants to start a new business!
"Tell me more specifically." Wright felt himself becoming interested.
After thinking for a moment, Gavier Madoc seemed to have made up his mind and said in a deep voice: "Divine power and magic power! According to our research, there is a natural repulsion between divine power and magic power. So if I can compress magic power and divine power at the same time, and then store them separately in the ammunition compartment of the long-range missile..."
Hearing this,
A glimmer of confusion flashed across Wright's eyes, and he took the initiative to take over the conversation:
"In this way, during the flight of the long-range missile, since the magic power reserves are only half of the original or even less, the stability of the magic storage array and the compression array will be stronger!"
"But... once the divine power and the magic power are released and exploded at the same time when they come into contact with the target, the mutual repulsion between them will probably produce unimaginable power!"
My mind is in a mess and I am overwhelmed. These days I have been thinking about how to end it properly...
