Suotuo Shipyard, in the huge shipyard, Chen Lin is taking Sea Soul Mercenary Group's people. Under the curious eyes of a group of shipbuilders, they find Barry, the person in charge of the shipyard. That is, Balak Kingdom's prince, Barry.
Because Balak Kingdom is penetrated by the Barak Great River and can directly go to sea, Balak Kingdom's shipbuilding industry is very strong, and Prince Barak Barry naturally has a very profound knowledge of shipbuilding. After learning that Suotuo City will become After establishing a large shipyard, Barry, who was not ready to continue being a playboy, directly joined Suotuo Shipyard and became a small leader there. Finally, relying on his excellent connections and vision, he successfully assumed the position of Suotuo Shipyard Factory Director in less than half a year.
"This Soul Guidance Steel Armored Ship, the weight of the hull was originally a bit overweight, but during the research and development process of our Suotuo Shipyard, we have made certain progress in two fields. On the one hand, we have developed Materials Science and Iron Smelting Department. We created a Lightweight Steel that is about three times stronger and tougher than the ordinary Hundred Refined Steel, but weighs only half of the Hundred Refined Steel. This finally allowed the Weight-Buoyancy Ratio of this steel armored ship to reach a safe level."
Barry is a chubby young man of sixteen or seventeen years old. He has a kind face and gives people a very down-to-earth feeling. Wearing some dirty blue and white work clothes and a safety helmet, he stood beside Chen Lin, Hai Ya, Haihun and others, and pointed at a giant steel beast in the dock and said proudly.
The steel behemoth is more than seventy meters long and twenty meters wide. It is made of metal and has complex silver patterns on its surface. It is being covered with Interlocking Armor by the workers working on it.
For the newly established Suotuo Shipyard, being able to build a Steel Warship from scratch in less than half a year is already an extremely productive existence!
Although Steel Warship still has some time to be officially completed, and the process of Armor Coating and Painting has not been completed, this is already the result of Barry maximizing the productivity of Suotuo Shipyard.
Moreover, Barry looked at Soul Guidance Steel Armored Ship in the dock, with a trace of unconcealable enthusiasm and pride flashing in his eyes.
King Barak, the father of Barry, asked Barry to have more contact with the Technology Guild, especially Chen Hong of the Technology Guild, But after contacting Barry, he discovered that Chen Hong seemed to have endless things to do every day. In order to complete the tasks assigned to him by his father, he chose to learn from Chen Hong and find something for himself to do. So after hearing that Suotuo Shipyard was expanding its recruitment, he directly used his identity to parachute into the factory and became a moderate leader.
Barry originally thought that no matter what, he would be parachuted into Deputy Factory Director or something, but in the end he was a moderate leader, which made him feel a little uncomfortable at the time. But soon, his dissatisfaction was dissipated by the Technology Guild's terrifying technical background.
When Barry was in Royal Capital, he learned it in Barak Shipyard. After all, it was one of the only industries that Balak Kingdom could excel in. As a prince, Barry had to learn it from an early age to facilitate future management.
That's why Barry was able to achieve rapid promotion within Suotuo Shipyard because he is very good at management.
What shocks Suotuo Shipyard to Barry is that Suotuo Shipyard can directly call Internal Technical Reserve of the Technology Guild!
For example, each department within the Technology Guild will bind it into a booklet for every new technology and new material. If other departments need materials in a certain field, they can publish them in the Technology Guild's Internal Technical Reserve Check the brochure to see if there are materials you need, such as Soul Guidance Metal with different effects and Cement Related Department with different strengths. You can directly use the technology inside to find Technology Guild to produce related materials.
Moreover, if the materials and technologies you want are not in the technical reserve booklet, you can submit an application to the relevant department and let them take the time to formulate relevant project arrangements and practice the technologies you want. Of course, you need to wait slowly for this, and it may take a long time.
Suotuo Shipyard led by Barry, after designing Ship Blueprints, the first problem they encountered was that the weight of the all-metal ship was too heavy. If the buoyancy remained unchanged, if various Functional Weapon Moduless were continued to be installed on the ship, it would cause the ship to be overweight and exceed safety Weight-Buoyancy Ratio.
There were only two solutions Barry thought of at that time, either to increase the width of the hull and increase the volume, or to find ways to reduce its own weight and reserve space for other Functional Weapon Modules.
Finally, I heard that the mysterious Young Guild Master Chen Hong came to pick up Soul Engineer from the Iron Smelting Department, so Barry soon had Lightweight Steel, a material suitable for shipbuilding, in his hands.
"And the second field is a breakthrough in the field of Soul Tool!"
Barry explained to the crowd with some excitement, "A brand new pattern, Soul Tool pattern that is light and can reduce its own gravity!"
"Of course, compared to Lightweight Steel, Lightness Engravings has too many limitations and needs to be activated all the time. If the hull is always overweight, once the Soul Power energy is exhausted, the ship will be at risk of sinking."
"However, we still used the latest technology from the Soul Guidance Device Department door on this Soul Guidance Steel Armored Ship, which increased the maximum theoretical cruising speed of this steel-armored ship by 50% in one fell swoop!"
"And because of the existence of Lightweight Steel, our scientific research team of Suotuo Shipyard designed an additional power system in the steel armored ship, turning it into Hybrid System!"
"Hybrid System?" Hai Ya looked confused, and the Sea Soul Mercenary Groups behind him were equally confused.
Chen Lin said happily at this time, "Haha, please forgive me Commander Hai Ya, Barry Factory Director has too many professional terms, which is a bit troublesome for you to understand."
"Let me explain to you, the first power system of the steel armored ship is soul movement. That is, as long as the soul master brothers of the Hai Ya mercenary group inject Soul Power into Soul Storage Device, and Soul Power is injected into the steel armored ship, the soul movement system composed of two large Soul Engines will exert force to push the steel armored ship forward."
"The second power system is Steam Powered. Well, to put it simply, you only need to keep adding coal to it, and the coal will continue to burn, producing a large amount of water vapor in the boiler, and then the steam will drive the turbine to rotate. The steel armored ship will move forward, as a power system that complements the Soul Movement."
Coal exists in this world (the principle of coal formation, coal exists almost in the world where Carbon-Based Life exists), so Steam Turbine was finally found out by Soul Engineer of the Technology Guild under the prompts of Chen Hong.
