Chapter 50 Supercritical Boilers(1/2)
Chapter 50 Supercritical Boiler
Water World, Water City.
This is the origin of the Volt civilization, the original residence of the original group of primitive people, and it is also the largest city-state in the Volt world today.
The House of Wise Men of the Vought Civilization is here, directing the development of the entire Vought Civilization.
In the House of the Wise, Walter is reading a book in his room. He is now in his forties, which is considered an advanced age in the current Walter civilization.
But even at such an age, he is still energetic and focused on inventions and creations.
Even late at night, I am still reading the latest research reports.
From a high-dimensional perspective, Zhou Ye is observing Walter at the moment.
One of the greatest wise men in the Volt civilization.
Now he is the main figure in the entire Academy of Wise Men.
He has mentored and trained countless younger generations and is regarded as the spiritual leader of Walter society.
If we want the technological development of the Vought people to break away from the shackles of steam engines, it is best to make top-down changes.
And the best candidate is Walter, the wise man who started the steam age.
After Walter got tired and went to bed, Zhou Ye started to take action.
Enlightenment.
Use soul magic to enter Walter's dream.
Interfere with it mentally and leave hints.
In this way, it is not only convenient, but also reminds Walter that the development of Walter's civilization is now a bit over the top.
…
In Walter's dream.
Zhou Ye still appeared in front of Walter in the image of the traveler who visited on a rainy day.
"Are you Mr. Traveler?"
Walter was surprised. For so many years, he has been looking for the Mr. Traveler who enlightened him.
He always remembered that little story after the rain.
But when he entered the Wise Man's Court as he wished, he found that Mr. Traveler was not there.
I thought it was the dirty politics of the upper echelons of the House of Wise Men that had eliminated the traces of Mr. Traveler’s existence.
But after many years of investigation, it was discovered that Mr. Traveler had never appeared in the House of Wise Men.
He also suspected that he could not accept the dirty politics of the Wise Man Academy, a reclusive wise man.
But later, when I studied the balloon left by Mr. Traveler, I found that the material that made the balloon was a metal that was countless years beyond the current level of technology.
Whether it is hardness, density, or thermal conductivity and other properties, it can be said to be a dream metal.
What he didn't know was that this was an extraordinary material created by Zhou Ye using alchemy.
I thought they would be inspired by this, but it didn't work at all.
Only then did Walter figure out that the mysterious Mr. Traveler might have a more special background.
"What exactly are you?"
Walter couldn't help but ask.
"Identity? There are too many, gods, adventurers, travelers, shopkeepers..."
Zhou Ye thought about all the vests he has used over the years.
The more Walter listened, the more confused he became. He still couldn't figure out who this Lord Traveler was.
"So, what do you want to see me for?"
Walter asked directly. The traveler who had disappeared for many years suddenly appeared. Naturally, he couldn't be here to reminisce about the past.
Zhou Ye nodded.
"Walter, I'm here to guide you. The Walters are on the wrong path."
In fact, it's not a mistake.
But according to Zhou Ye's estimation, the current use of steam by the Water people has reached a bottleneck.
The current power of steam drive has almost reached the limit of the current technological level of Vought civilization.
No matter how much the mechanical structure is improved, it only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
What Zhou Ye wants is an extraordinary technological civilization.
In order to prevent Walter's civilization from falling into a technological bottleneck for hundreds of years, Zhou Ye could only deceive like this.
Otherwise, the Walter civilization may not be able to catch up with the magician civilization next door.
In our magician system, there are already strong men who can shake the continental shelf drift. Are you still playing with steam engines?
How can we defeat them? Just trick them into clicking on the technology tree about alchemy first!
Walter looked horrified.
"How could it be possible? With the rapid development of science and technology of the Water people today, those giant beasts in the past have become existences that can be slaughtered at will. Even if there is a natural disaster, we can respond very quickly. How could we go wrong?"
Zhou Ye shook his head and started his own deception.
"The efficiency of steam is limited. You must have discovered that the current technology has reached the limit of what steam technology can do. The efficiency of steam technology is a bit behind the times."
It is a fact that after a great explosion in steam technology, its progress began to slow down.
Walt actually discovered this too.
He was also worried, as it seemed that the potential of steam technology was coming to an end.
He fell into deep thought, just like when he faced the air ball.
This wise man from the Vote civilization fell into deep thought again.
Thinking about the future of Vought civilization.
After a while, he raised his head again and spoke seriously.
"Mr. Traveler, what you are saying is that today's steam technology is too inefficient. Do you need to find some means to increase efficiency?"
You finally understand!
Zhou Ye was happy in his heart, showed a teachable expression, smiled and nodded.
"Remember, the direction of progress is on the air ball I gave you back then!"
Walter nodded solemnly: "I understand!"
Seeing this, Zhou Ye was satisfied and ended the dream.
In the Courtyard of the Wise, Walter opened his eyes and it was already dawn.
Do you have thoughts every day and dreams at night?
Under the guidance of Zhou Ye's soul technique, Walter didn't think about other aspects at all.
Just because he thought about it day by day and dreamed about it at night, he had already anticipated that the efficiency of steam could no longer keep up with the times.
"Mr. Traveler, what a long memory... Is this giving me a hint?"
He dug out a dusty box under the bed and took out his most cherished things.
An exquisite air ball.
"Steam, efficiency..."
Walter muttered these words silently in his mind, and already had preliminary ideas about future development.
This wise man seems to have returned to the time when he was young and full of energy and creativity.
I got up, got dressed, sat down at my desk, and started drawing.
Zhou Ye, who observed from a high-dimensional perspective, was very satisfied. Looking at his mobility, can he be said to be the individual with the highest intelligence in civilization?
Zhou Ye secretly applied several soul spells and life spells.
While accelerating his thinking, it also allows Walter to maintain sufficient energy to continue contributing to civilization.
…
In the next three years, with the continuous blessing of Zhou Ye's magic, Walter the wise man continued to think intensively for three years and started experiments again and again with great energy.
I continue to think even in my dreams.
Walt himself lamented that he was really getting younger and younger.
Little did he know that Zhou Ye had been secretly blessing his special state.
If it weren't for Zhou Ye's life spell, ordinary people would die suddenly in less than a month if they stayed in this state.
To be continued...
