The expansion of the island lasted for three minutes, and the total area expanded three times!
The railway station, which was originally crowded with more than 2,000 people, became much more relaxed in an instant.
"God's means!"
The president of Cambridge University lay down and touched the ground tremblingly: "I can't imagine..."
The scientific researchers from various authorities are even more capable. They directly take out the containers and fill them with sand and gravel or liquid from the Black Lake as samples.
When the volume of the floating castle expanded to a real 1:1 ratio, a hidden switch was triggered, causing the hydrogen gas that was originally in a solidified state to be quickly released and fill the inside of each building block.
As the buoyancy gradually became greater than gravity, the entire island made of airgel finally slowly lifted into the sky.
[Fly! It's flying!]
[So awesome~]
[The miraculous craftsmanship of nature...]
[Use buoyancy to make the earth fly! What a show!]
[I have never heard of this kind of operation.]
[As for the future LEGO company, it’s normal to have a big brain.]
[Hydrogen explosion is a miracle!]
On the ground, more than 2,000 soldiers and tens of thousands of people who came from the outside were all staring at the huge island that seemed to cover the sky and cover the sun with their mouths wide open.
This spectacular, majestic, magnificent and miraculous scene will be deeply imprinted in the deepest part of each of their minds and will never be forgotten.
"Private dream を见ていますか? (Am I still in a dream?)"
"It's hot today! (It seems I had a fever this morning...)"
"Ah! (Ah! I'm a reporter! What is that thing? Why don't you let me in? Is it a new weapon from Jianguo? Don't touch me! Yama! I have the right to dig out the truth...)"
As the floating castle flew higher and higher, it was naturally discovered by more and more people. Some of them were shocked, panicked, confused, and curious to take pictures.
There are five million residents in the Echigo Plain, and the huge island can be seen when you look up. The local officials cannot hide it at all. We can only temporarily block traffic and the Internet to prevent the rapid spread of news...
on the island.
Many brave people ran decisively to the edge of the island, wanting to lie down on the cliff and look at the ground, but were blocked by the sudden appearance of several Auror mages: "There is danger ahead, please don't get close."
Hermione was suspended in mid-air and said seriously: "The higher the height, the stronger the wind will be. For your safety, please do not get close to the edge. If you want to enjoy the scenery on the ground, you can enter the astronomical tower and central tower in the castle. There. The field of view is 360 degrees, wider.”
"A question suddenly occurred to me." Chen Yu raised the microphone and asked: "More than two thousand of us are standing in the same place, resulting in an imbalance of gravity. Will the floating castle be overturned?"
"No." Hermione landed on the ground and shook her head: "I control the hydrogen density of the castle. I will adjust the hydrogen density and cents as gravity changes to ensure the balance of buoyancy."
"So an artificial intelligence is needed to control these complex and rigorous tasks."
"Yes."
"Compared to the nuclear bomb-making toys of the 22nd century, they are indeed more advanced as we go into the future." Chen Yu looked at the shrinking land and asked: "How high will the castle rise to?"
"The current altitude is 700 meters, rising 10 meters per second, and will reach the standard altitude of 30,000 meters in forty-eight minutes."
"Thirty thousand meters? Damn it, people will die!"
"The distance that humans are not adapted to is at an altitude of 80,000 meters." Hermione explained.
"That's Superman you're talking about..." Chen Yu raised his head and said, "It should be up to four thousand meters. By the way, is the castle closed?"
"Yes." Hermione nodded: "Including the central courtyard, most of the castle complex is a closed environment, isolated from thunderstorms, lack of oxygen, high temperature, or ultraviolet damage."
"Snapped!"
Chen Yu snapped his fingers: "Then let's rise to four thousand meters first, and then continue rising when we enter the castle. How high can we rise at most?"
"The warm layer 300,000 meters above sea level."
"So this thing was originally called a space station, right?!"
"It can't fly that high." Hermione said seriously, "The perigee of the space station is also above three million meters."
"...Mr. Minister of Magic, you'd better take us into the castle first."
"Okay." Hermione smiled and bowed: "Please follow me and enter the castle through the waterway."
"There are more than two thousand people here." Chen Yu pointed to a few small wooden boats on the shore of the Black Lake: "How many people can fit in those two boats?"
Hermione didn't answer, but walked straight across the station to the lake and blew a loud whistle.
"Wow!"
The next moment, the huge squid came out of the water, stretched out two thick and ferocious tentacles, and rested on the shore.
Looking back, Hermione looked at Chen Yu and showed a bright smile: "Step on its back and tentacles, and you can transport at least two hundred at a time."
…
Three minutes later, Chen Yu led everyone in the barrage group onto the back of the squid and headed for the castle.
More than 2,000 people from the reward group and the college group lined up in order.
Chen Yu could have flown over faster, but in order to let the audience in the live broadcast room enjoy the panoramic view of the castle immersively, he decided to follow the "big army".
"This lake is the Black Lake that Harry Potter passed through when he first entered school." Standing on the squid's head, Chen Yu controlled the camera to focus on the front: "You can see the boathouse in front, along the long Corridor, you can reach the entrance courtyard of the castle. The degree of restoration is really high, you can't imagine that everything is spliced together with building blocks... "
The king squid swims very fast. Chen Yu's explanation did not last for a few minutes before he arrived at the boathouse on the other side.
Under the leadership of Hermione, the group walked through the corridor and entered the spacious castle courtyard.
The courtyard has a rectangular structure, with evenly distributed load-bearing columns supporting the ceiling on all four sides, leaving only the middle part exposed to the outside sky.
The strong medieval retro style dazzled the participants of the barrage group.
"I built this load-bearing pillar! Take a photo with me!"
"Fart! Our barrage team is fighting for the foundation!"
"It's so glorious..."
Standing on the steps of the courtyard, Hermione pointed to the sky: "It's a closed area from here on. The top is sealed. It's just transparent."
"Take us further inside." Chen Yu urged: "The courtyard can only hold 300 people at most. It will be blocked when the next batch arrives."
"good."
Hermione nodded and led everyone into the auditorium, through the moving stairs, the courtyard building, the central bridge, and straight to the Astronomy Tower, one of the highest points of the castle.
[This is a real castle!]
[In the future, it is a toy, but in modern times, it is the top real estate.]
[Except for the lack of internet, it’s perfect.]
[Wouldn’t UP owners consider turning it into a hotel?]
[To be more direct, how much does it cost to sleep for one night?]
"How high is it from the ground now?"
Standing by the window of the astronomy tower, Chen Yu looked at the last batch of college students sitting on the back of the squid, turned around and asked.
"The altitude of 4000 meters you set has been reached."
"Can you control those Auror mages?"
"Aurors are lower-level artificial intelligences under my control."
"Well, you ask the Auror Master to prevent anyone from leaving the closed area, take care of their safety, and continue to rise! One hundred thousand meters!"
"Okay." Hermione nodded: "We have continued to take off."
"I remember the instruction manual said that the floating castle can also move quickly, right?"
"Yes, which direction are you moving in?"
"of course… "
Chen Yu pointed to the east: "China."
"To the east is the Pacific Ocean." Hermione said calmly.
"Oh, then the West..."
