Chapter 542 UFO... No, it's a pumice aircraft! (twenty three)

On the flight platform, all kinds of speeding cars and large transport planes are rising and falling, which looks quite lively.

However, Terra has not made a big breakthrough in the real giant transport, or there is no such demand-all transport aircraft are the largest with a wingspan of about 60 meters.

There are a total of eight flight platforms in the imperial capital, located at the entrance and exit of the central city, shaped like the word 'Zao', the part of the word '日' is used as a vertical take-off and landing platform, and the cross part is an acceleration flight channel.Of course, this is not exactly early words, just an analogy

It is part of the national logistics system of the imperial capital. This is a project that the late emperor wanted to build but was not fully completed. Now it is completed in the hands of Axel.

The railway circle around the imperial capital and the huge transport vehicles are all part of ensuring the supply of materials in the core metropolitan area around the imperial capital. Air transportation is faster and can obtain resources from farther places. The imperial capital is still considering adding more. Four large flight platforms increase throughput.

Even so, the prices of things other than food in the imperial capital are very expensive.

And now, Ian brought the goblin ladies and Tres's team to the second military flight platform.

Then, he saw a UFO.

What are UFOs?
To put it bluntly, it is a UFO. In a certain era on the earth, it refers to the spacecraft of aliens. Most of them are disc-shaped, with a thick center and thin edges.

And appearing in front of Ian, the aircraft located on the second flying platform of the imperial capital is such a disc-shaped aircraft that perfectly fits all the characteristics of a UFO.

It is very huge, with a diameter of more than 45 meters. The central area is a regular octagonal prism, which is probably the observation bridge, and the lower part is used to transport materials. The disc flying vehicle was suspended in mid-air without a sound like this, stretching out a telescopic ladder, waiting for Ian and others to enter it.

Ian was stunned for a long time. The thoughts, ideas, stalks and various speculations that flashed in his mind could make ordinary people stunned in an instant - but in the end, he still didn't understand what was going on.

"Maybe, this is some alien heritage obtained by the civilization of the previous era? Because it is very useful, it is widely installed, and the current Terra civilization still uses it..."

Ian racked his brains to guess, but still couldn't figure out why: "But why is it a disc? How does it fly? I don't see any propulsion nozzles... Maybe it would be fine if it was in space, but in the atmosphere, the disc Shaped aircraft is not very reasonable..."

And just as the young man was thinking hard, he noticed one thing.

That is, although there are no nozzles on the edge of the disc aircraft, there are quite a lot of 'inscription pumice'.

Pumice, a peculiar mineral, has a whole sequence from low energy level to high energy level and quite a lot of derivatives.

Ian's Fairy Wings uses two pumice stones related to the water attribute, 'Hanging Sea Dust' and 'Lingguang Pumice Stone', which can generate huge propulsion through the source quality, and all the pumice stones Generally speaking, they are not too affected by gravity.

This is a substance for which one of the four fundamental forces can be ignored in ordinary circumstances.Of course, it is not completely ignored, but it is already very outrageous that it can ignore part of it on the surface.

--Hi.I was foolish enough to try to teach geophysics on Terra.

When Ian saw the pumice stone, Ian was immediately relieved, because the shape of the UFO reminded him too much of his previous life, and he forgot that this world has extraordinary powers such as psionic energy and source quality.

Four fundamental forces?Pooh.

Only people on earth will care.

Who knows how many basic forces there are in the universe where this ghost place of Terra is located?At least the psychic energy and source quality are definitely related to the special features of this universe. Ian has not observed anything that has nothing to do with psychic energy.Whether it is a substance or a phenomenon.

Even if the spiritual energy is originally one, it also means that Terra has at least the fifth basic force, and it is this level of power that supports all the extraordinary phenomena in the entire Terra universe.

It's just that this kind of thing is far from something that Ian can study now.

After calming down, Ian's appearance on the outside is actually the shock of a very ordinary country bumpkin - no matter how talented he is, he is also a countryman from the remote area of ​​Nanling.

I have never seen a high-end pumice aircraft in the capital, is it normal?

At least Tres didn't see any flaws, he just smiled: "How about it, is it shocking? I was also shocked when I saw it for the first time. This is a new aircraft from the fifth-generation aerospace armor development team. "

"Originally they planned to use the characteristics of pumice stone to make the sixth-generation space armor, but they found that it was difficult to miniaturize the alchemy furnace core. After forced miniaturization, the propulsion and durability could not meet expectations - the pumice stone power group is more suitable for operation outside the atmosphere , but that place is the territory of the real dragon."

"No matter how much more, I don't know. Anyway, a lot of information about the armored troops is top secret, so we know some old news."

"I can only say that it was indeed beyond my expectations."

This time Ian really didn't pretend, he really didn't expect: "We just ride this thing over there?"

The answer is of course.

The power of the pumice aircraft is quite high, but it is difficult to miniaturize. It operates silently, which makes it suitable for secret mission transportation or surprise launch.

Ian and his team entered with Tres's team. The elves seemed quite indifferent to this shape of aircraft, because they had seen countless kinds of aircraft with strange shapes, and the mere disc would not amaze them. .

Take a closer look, indeed.There are many kinds of aircraft on the flying platform, including speeding cars, cigar-shaped small airships, and normal fighters, but most of them are armored in rows of sky and sky. There are 78 aircrafts in total, and three of them are obviously A stronger leader machine.

The armed force on this flying platform alone may be enough to start a small war.

"The technology is so advanced."

Ian looked at the large and heavy triangular-shaped fighters that conformed to normal aerodynamics, and couldn't help but feel that he seemed to be in the wrong place: "Why are there so few fighters? In terms of speed alone, the speed of aircraft with this shape is obviously faster. Hurry up?"

"You mean high-speed mobile fortress (MA)?" Tres looked at those giant fighters and nodded: "It is indeed very strong, with high firepower and fast speed, but it is not as good as the space armor that can exert all the power of a sublimator." The power cannot be quickly landed in the air to cooperate with the ground forces to carry out compound strikes, so it will only be useful in driving out dragon beasts and large-scale wars."

"However, I heard that the reason why our sixth-generation aerospace armor is so difficult to produce is because we are developing a variable form of fighter armor. It is usually a mobile fortress, and it can be transformed into armor when low-altitude suppression is required. It has both the power of."

"But it's not true, who knows?"

After all, Tres is a junior directly under the deputy head of Shuangji, and there are many channels, but the time spent in the Patrol Knights is too little, and a lot of news only knows a vague general idea.

But this is enough, Ian already felt outrageous, and couldn't help thinking: "Transformable fighter? This place on Terra is really amazing..."

In fact, for the locals, these things are nothing magical, they are nothing more than big toys for sublimators.

The result of ordinary people who want to drive these steel monsters can only be directly crushed to death by acceleration-the Terrans are indeed very strong, but for the ultra-high-speed aerospace armor that cruises at twice the speed of sound at every turn, it is really It's not enough to see.

——Why is it so easy to get a lot of flying mechas in Terra?
——Of course it’s because they don’t need to consider the endurance of the human body at all, they only need to consider the mechanical limit!
"The mechanical design concept of this ghost place is different from that of the earth. After all, the 'human' as the core is no longer the same kind of creature."

After confirming this idea, Ian shook his head slightly: "It's no wonder that Terra's culture and moral concepts are very different from those of Earth."

With this in mind, they boarded the pumice aircraft together.

A few minutes later, after confirming that the boarding personnel and materials were complete, the pumice aircraft with two transport vehicles suspended quietly took off in the deep space.

He galloped towards the Avak area.
