Chapter 695: City in the Sky
In a sense, the City in the Sky is actually a very impractical design.
After all, you have the ability to build a city that floats in the sky and can fly. If you use this productivity to build something else, you have to use it to build a floating city.
But on the other hand, when your productivity is sufficient to build a floating city, then your technology and production level have undoubtedly reached a very exaggerated level.
This is just like making a large humanoid robot. The actual combat performance of this thing has been criticized by people in the original world, and the technical requirements for making a humanoid are much higher than creating other shapes.
But on the other hand, you can build a large humanoid robot, so why can't you build something more practical?
In the final analysis, only after the technology has developed to a certain level and the need to have it is resolved, can we pursue fancy things.
Perfect’s design of the Sky City was actually the same. At the beginning, her design tended to be conservative, and everything was built around the core technology of flying stone.
A large enough flying stone can be used to develop an anti-gravity field and then build a house with a sufficiently stable structure in the anti-gravity field.
This is the first version of Castle in the Sky.
It's not even a design, it's just the simplest infrastructure.
The city in the sky that Perficott saw in his dream was a design that had already iterated twice on this basis.
But even so, in Purficott’s view, the design of the sky city is not a serious design. It is more about discussing the design of a sky city based on technical verification. What things do you have?
After completing the technical verification and feasibility design, the Sky City truly has the actual value of being built.
If we look at the current industrial capabilities and technological levels of the North and Victoria, they can at most complete the construction of the flying battleship currently being planned by Purficott.
As for the city in the sky?
It’s not that Perfectikt looked down on them. With Victoya’s current technical strength and industrial production capacity, it would be difficult to build a flying castle.
Some people may think of building airships and flying battleships, using flying stones to reduce the weight and make a palace or house fly, but this is undoubtedly still far from a real city in the sky. .
In Purficott’s opinion, a real city in the sky must at least prepare the attributes that a city should have.
I dare not say that a city can really fly, but it must at least be able to support the necessary conditions for long-term residence of some people.
Flying and floating are just the basics.
So to a certain extent, if an airship or air battleship creates the shape of a city and improves the living facilities, it can also be called a city in the sky.
But Purficott didn’t intend to do this, because it was too boring.
Having let her imagination run free in dreams, and possessing the ability of omniscience, she can acquire all the knowledge and technology to realize her imagination. For Purficott, she built a true city in the sky. All that is missing is to actually build it.
According to Purficott's design, the City in the Sky is not built around a flying stone.
This is not to say that this single-core construction model is impossible, but it is too low in terms of efficiency and scale. Purficott used a satellite layout similar to the energy towers in the current city. The core of the floating city is a large flying stone, and there are several smaller flying stones scattered around the outer circle of this large flying stone. It is a structure used to distribute the weight of the city and also divide the city from one center into multiple centers.
One advantage of the multi-core city design model is that it can divide different functional areas of the city, which can add more functions to the city and also allow the city to accommodate more population.
Not only that, this satellite design can also reduce the weight of the flying stones supporting the city, and distribute the weight that was originally piled together to different support points.
Perficott even imagined designing a floating fortress that was completely disconnected from the main body of the city, which would be used to orbit the main body of the city and provide protection for the main body of the city.
"It looks good. The ring city structure and satellite city design are very avant-garde urban planning and design even in the original world." Purficott looked at his completed design and nodded with satisfaction.
The ring-shaped city layout can maximize daylighting, which is still very important for a floating city.
And one of the benefits of a ring city is that it can better plan traffic, avoid traffic congestion, and make urban planning easier.
Looking at the city he designed, Perficott felt as happy as playing a business simulation game in his previous life.
Compared with the limitations and helplessness of having to squeeze even a tiny bit of space when designing a shelter, this kind of city in the sky where imagination can be completely unleashed really makes Purficott feel happy.
Especially when she completed the entire design and looked at the city she had planned, a spontaneous satisfaction and pride filled her heart, making her feel particularly satisfied and happy.
Maybe for her, this is what she really wants.
Ruling and managing the entire northern territory may seem to some people to be a high-ranking position, and they must be able to enjoy the sweetness of power and all kinds of arrogant and luxurious life, but for Perfectcott, there is only responsibility and burden.
Her life is indeed luxurious, but for Purficott, she has no intention of paying attention to whether the life she enjoys is luxurious or simple.
Because she has too many things to do every day and is too busy.
If she really handles everything that needs to be handled with due diligence, she will be overwhelmed by endless government affairs every day.
Is it okay for her to be lazy? The answer is also no.
In fact, even if Purficott delegates a lot of work to her subordinates, she still has endless work to do every day.
Governing a country requires dealing with all aspects of matters, and as the lord of the north, Perficott's territorial scope is not much smaller than that of a country.
And her other identity also determines that she is really managing a country.
Although most of Victoire's affairs do not require her to handle them personally, many strategic issues require her to fully express her opinions and make decisions at the same time.
Many times, others think that Purficott's too much power has led to her dominance, but they fail to consider that the fact is that others are so incompetent that she can only do this.
Power reigns supreme. For ordinary people, they only see the high position and power of life and death, but for Perfectcott, all she sees is endless work.
So she understands very well why there were so many stupid kings in ancient times. Whoever likes to do this kind of work with heavy responsibilities all year round can do it!
