After seeing Heinze off, Xu Yi processed a few documents at hand, turned to look out the window, thought for a moment, and drove the magic car out of the private estate and toward the shipyard. …≦Dingma Novel,
As soon as they approached the shipyard, they heard a deafening roar on the sea in the distance.
Turning around, he saw a column of water rising into the sky from the sea, more than ten meters high.
At this time, the sun was shining diagonally from the sea in the west, and the water droplets fell and splashed all over the sky, making the sun shine colorful and looking extremely gorgeous.
Xu Yi squinted his eyes and looked at the place where the water column fell, then tilted his head, and his eyes fell on a boat about 30 corns long parked on the sea about 500 meters away from the water column, with a height of five or six meters above the water. , a medium-sized magic ship that looks somewhat similar to a magic assault boat, but is several times larger and looks slimmer.
Just as his eyes turned around, a bright blue light suddenly lit up on the medium-sized magic ship, and then he saw a small black spot shooting out with fiery red light, drawing a long line in the mid-air on the sea. The long parabola landed on the sea more than 500 meters away.
"boom-"
There was another loud noise, and the sea surface that had just returned to calm was once again blasted with a water column more than ten meters high. Huge ripples swayed from the explosion point, pushing a rotten wooden boat parked dozens of meters away to sway. .
Seeing that the rotten wooden boat was still intact, Xu Yi couldn't help but shake his head.
This target is still intact, which is really disappointing.
Glancing at the medium-sized magic ship in the distance, Xu Yi's magic power stirred. The entire body disappeared out of thin air, and in the blink of an eye, it appeared out of thin air on the deck of the medium-sized magic ship more than a thousand meters away from the coast.
Lumi on the deck was the first to react. When he turned around and saw Xu Yi emerging from the void, he immediately smiled like a happy little girl.
"Hey, President, why are you free today?"
"I just have some free time and wanted to see how you are progressing." Xu Yi responded and said hello to the others who reacted after hearing Lumi's greeting. "How's it going? Is there any progress? I saw that the wooden boat used as a target is still fine."
Hear this, everyone. Everyone, including Lumi, looked at each other with a hint of shame.
"This..." Pottru, the dwarf engineer who was mainly responsible for the shipborne magic artillery project, scratched his head and replied sheepishly: "Mr. President, the progress is indeed not good. We have conducted actual artillery fire tests for three days. Until now...except for Captain Falio, no one else has hit a single shot..."
"Oh?" Xu Yi looked at Fario, the elf captain of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce's escort team, who was firmly fixed on the deck like a tree. "Fario, why are you the only one who can shoot? No one else can?"
Furion replied expressionlessly: "Because our elves' shooting talent is much higher than theirs."
"Really?" Xu Yi glanced at the other people on the deck. Finding that there was another elf among the group of people, he pointed at him and asked, "Then why didn't Ildan hit him?"
Furion glanced at Ildan lightly: "Ildan is now a researcher, not a warrior. His talent has been wasted."
Ildan coughed slightly, looking embarrassed.
"Okay, I admit that Fario, your shooting talent is better than others, but what we need to know now is, what is your talent specifically about? That is, how can you hit the target? What about the others who missed the shot?" Xu Yi asked.
Furion frowned slightly and thought for a while. Answered: "I think... the most important thing is that our elves' eyesight is much better than other races. Secondly, because our elves warriors are generally proficient in bows and arrows, and are used to judging corrections by the trajectory of the bow and arrow. Well... actually I didn't hit the first few shots, but after shooting a few times, I figured out the pattern, and the next few shots were able to hit. "
Xu Yi immediately turned to look at Botru, frowning and said: "Since Furio has figured out the rules, why don't you ask him for advice and improve based on his experience?"
Botru spread his hands helplessly: "President, this is the talent of their elves. Nothing can replace it."
"No, I don't think so." Xu Yi shook his head. "As for the eyesight advantage of the elves, you can try to install an improved telescope on the magic artillery. As for the summary rules that Furion said... Actually, have you forgotten what I said? The so-called rules, in fact, It’s a process of constantly making the data more precise.”
Botru's expression changed: "President, do you mean... let us and Furion keep experimenting with artillery shooting, and then carry out data statistics and fine-tuning here?"
"Nonsense!" Xu Yi said angrily: "Don't you understand this after you have been working on the research and development of magic machinery for so long?"
Botru touched his head and muttered: "This is only our first time developing magic artillery, and we are not yet proficient enough..."
"Then make yourself proficient as soon as possible!" Xu Yi glared at him, leaving him and a bunch of other engineers and researchers to continue to cooperate with Furion to study the ship-borne magic cannon, while he pulled Lum aside. .
"Hey, Lumi, how do you feel about being in the shipyard during this time?" Xu Yi asked.
"Very good." Lumi replied with a smile. "Everyone is very kind to me, and I am very happy that there are many people here who can communicate with me about magical machinery."
"Really? That's good." Xu Yi nodded. "But you are the only dwarf here. Do you still feel lonely?"
A sad look flashed across Lumi's face, and she lowered her head slightly.
"Sometimes I do feel lonely, but I have been like this for almost a hundred years and I have long been used to it."
Then he cheered up again.
"But it doesn't matter! After staying in the shipyard for so long, I firmly believe that we will be able to build a magic ship that can easily complete ocean voyages! Then as long as I drive the magic ship to find another continent, I can meet my people. "
"Haha, it will take at least several years. Before that, have you ever thought about the possibility of meeting other tribesmen in advance?" Xu Yixiao asked.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Lumi. You said last time that the last news you knew about other tribesmen was when they left the continent of Sainz more than two thousand years ago. Is this true?"
"That's right, what's wrong?"
"But from the various documents I read during this period, I found that after the great migration of the dwarfs more than two thousand years ago, there were actually various rumors about the discovery of dwarfs. Although these are just rumors, There is no concrete evidence, but after seeing you with my own eyes, I thought of a possibility. "
"What's possible?" As if she heard the hidden meaning in Xu Yi's words, Lumi's big eyes flashed a little.
"You see, you and your family did not choose to leave Sainz Continent. Instead, you stayed. Then outside of your family, there are probably other dwarfs who also chose to stay like you. So I I think it is very likely that you are not the only dwarf on the continent of Sainz now, there should be other tribesmen."
Lumi's eyes widened: "Really? President, can you find them?"
"I can't guarantee that this is true, and I can't guarantee that I can find them, but I can find ways to try to find them, but before that, I need your consent and support."
"If you can find a clansman, I will do anything you ask me to do!" Lumi immediately responded loudly.
"Very good." Xu Yi nodded with satisfaction. "Lumi. The method I want to adopt is a stupid one, which is to spread your news throughout the Sainz continent. It is best to spread this news to the ears of other dwarfs who may exist, so that they can I know you still exist on this continent. If they also want to find the tribe, I think they will definitely come to you."
"Can you really spread this news throughout the entire continent?" Lumi was a little doubtful.
"I dare not say it in other places, but at least there will be no problem in the surrounding countries. When the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce develops in other countries in the future, I can also spread this news to other countries." Xu Yi said with certainty. . "But there's a problem."
"what is the problem?"
"That is, you will become a celebrity. Lumi, you should be very aware of how rare the dwarfs are on the continent of Sainz now. If people know your existence, it will definitely cause a big sensation. And in order to make your But the message is being spread to let other dwarfs know that you still have to show up in public and show your identity. This will have a great impact on your life, do you think this is okay?"
Lumi's delicate eyebrows furrowed deeply.
Although she didn't understand what Xu Yi said about the troubles of celebrities, but thinking that she would be treated as a rare item by many humans, she felt that this scene must be annoying.
But thinking about the possibility Xu Yi mentioned, she felt that this proposal was full of temptation.
Xu Yi looked at Lumi quietly and did not rush her.
In fact, it took him a long time to make this decision.
The reason for doing this is actually out of caution.
Although Lumi always said that as long as he goes deep into the endless sea and finds another continent, he can find his own people.
However, even if the dwarfs from more than two thousand years ago did research on magic machinery, they were still far behind the current technological level of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
With the level of seagoing ships at that time, going deep into the endless sea for an ocean voyage was a narrow escape.
Looking at it more pessimistically, it is very likely that all the dwarfs died in the endless sea.
Even if they are optimistic, the dwarfs have found a new continent, but it is still unknown whether they can settle down and continue in the new continent stably.
Over the past two thousand years, anything could have happened.
It is very possible that the dwarf tribe that left Sainz Continent has completely disappeared, and only the dwarf tribe left in Sainz Continent is left in this world.
If this is really the case, it would be a tragedy if Lumi's long-awaited ocean voyage exploration came to nothing.
So before that, Xu Yi decided that it would be best to try his best to find the dwarfs on the continent of Sainz.
In this way, even if the dwarfs who left Sainz Continent cannot be found, Lumi will not be left alone from now on, until she finally faces the greatest tragedy of genocide.
Through Lumi's performance during the time she entered the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, Xu Yi was convinced that the dwarfs did have special talents in magical machinery.
The addition of Lumi has greatly improved the research and development progress of many magic machines of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and also inspired the ideas of many new magic machines, as well as the improvement of various original magic machines.
If more dwarfs can join the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, it will undoubtedly make the New Flying Chamber of Commerce even more powerful in the technological research and development of magic machinery.
Of course, privately, Xu Yi did feel that it was really pitiful for Lumi to be alone.
Lumi thought for a long time, then raised her head to look at Xu Yi and nodded slowly.
"Okay, President, that's it. If you can find other clan members, I will be very grateful to you."
Xu Yi smiled slightly and patted Lumi's shoulder gently: "Don't worry, I believe you will never be lonely."
Lumi said "hmm" heavily, with a smile on her face.
Xu Yi suddenly chuckled: "Since you agreed, Lumi, from tomorrow onwards, you have to report to Steele every day, do you understand?"
"Huh?" Lumi was stunned. "Why do you want to report to Steele
"Because... you will be a star in the future." (To be continued...)
