Chapter 213 The Military Headquarters Comes
Perficott did not return to the north immediately. The senior military officials who hurriedly arrived from the mainland on another airship blocked her.
"Earl Brandless, can the flying stone be used in the construction of warships or the development of flying vehicles?" A navy admiral got straight to the point and asked Purficott. Their navy's biggest concern.
The army general who came with him was even closer to Purficott. He first made a conversation about family matters, and then got to the point: "Little Purficott, I heard that before I came here. You said you met a thief, didn't you lose anything important? Can the flying stone make the steam knight fly? "
This army general and Perficott's grandfather are colleagues in the army? , so he also needs to appear closer in terms of title.
Listening to the questions of the two military generals, Purficott pinched the bridge of his nose and relieved the fatigue of his eyes before saying: "The flying stone can be used for military purposes, but its production is very difficult. Difficulty, I think I made this very clear in my previous telegram to the military.
As for whether it can make the steam knight fly, or whether it can create other flying vehicles or even... The flying battleship all depends on whether the flying stone can be mass-produced."
"We know that we consulted the Alchemist Association as soon as we received your telegram, and they said you have any questions. If necessary, the Alchemist Society is willing to fully support it." The admiral spoke first, and then lowered his voice: "The Navy has passed a decision to completely stop the new shipbuilding plan, but this is still top secret and has not been announced to the public. At present, the production capacity of all shipyards in the Navy is ready to shift to the construction of airships.
If you, Count Brandless, need it, the Navy can provide you with all necessary resources, as long as it can... "
Before the admiral finished speaking, the army admiral on the side interrupted him directly and interjected: "Little Purficott, if you have any difficulties in the production of flying stones, just ask. , although the resources our army has are not as wealthy as their navy, they can still support it, and our needs are not high. We only need steam knights that can fly. You see..."

Looking at these two unwilling generals, Purficott felt tired.
Before these two people came, she was already preparing to return to the North. Taking advantage of this time to pack her things, Purficott was imagining how to build shelters in the North and how these shelters should be built. What form does it create.
The snow and wind encountered in the north this winter can only be regarded as a preview, but based on the situation that has already occurred, Purficott has also collected a lot of information, allowing her to understand how to deal with the doomsday winter shelter. What elements must be present.
Therefore, before these two generals came to the door, she had been studying the planning and design of the shelter. If the arrival of these two men had not interrupted her thoughts, Purficott would have returned. Drawing a design.
It’s just that these two generals forced her to deal with them personally instead of having them sent away.
So in the face of their demands, Purficott could only think for a while and then said: "To make the flying stone, you need to use a new technology called fantasy alchemy. This is based on the sage's teachings." A brand new technology developed by Shi.
If you want to realize the mass production of flying stones, you must promote and popularize fantasy alchemy, but if you want to control fantasy alchemy, you must have. The Philosopher's Stone.
The Philosopher's Stone in my hand comes from the research results left by my parents. I only have this one, so if you want to mass-produce the Flying Stone, you have two. Choice."
"Which two options?" The admiral was particularly concerned. He was eager to mass-produce the flying stone. For this reason, he wished he could go to the shipyard to tighten the screws on the warship. . The army general on the side also looked over with burning eyes, a look of eagerness and hope on his face.
If they hadn't tortured the Alchemist Association before and knew that no one except Perficott had the Philosopher's Stone, they wouldn't have made such a trip in person.
"One is that you go back and let the alchemists of the Alchemist Association work hard to try to create a new philosopher's stone, and then use this as a basis to popularize fantasy alchemy." Purficott Speaking of the first option, she also added: "I know that those alchemists do not have the ability to create new philosopher's stones in a short time. I can provide them with technical support.
But alchemy pays attention to equal exchange, and there is no reward without giving. This is a principle that every alchemist must follow.
So every alchemist who receives technical support from me must do so. Work for me for free for ten years as tuition for receiving technical support from me, regardless of whether they can successfully create the Philosopher's Stone."
Hearing this, the admiral and the army general fell into confusion. Meditated.
They really knew nothing about alchemy, but they at least knew one thing, that is, for at least several hundred years, the only known and proven owner of the Philosopher's Stone was Perficott.
Obviously, making the Philosopher's Stone is not that simple. Even Purficott's parents paid the price with their lives for it. One can imagine how difficult this is.
In their view, even with the technical support provided by Perficott, it would be extremely difficult for ordinary alchemists to create the Philosopher's Stone, let alone Perficott. There is also mention of a new technology called Utopian Alchemy.
So the two of them did not choose this option rashly, but asked Purficott: "What about the second option?"
"The second option? That is to wait. I took time to perfect the manufacturing technology of the flying stone before mass production." Purficott said the second option, but before the two admirals spoke, she added: "But now I don't have this. In terms of time, I think both of you should understand the importance of the matter in the North. I won't be able to spare the time to do it before I finish dealing with the matter in the North.
So even if you want flying battleships and flying steam knights, you have to wait until three years later. But things are not non-negotiable, as long as..."
"As long as what? "The two generals asked eagerly, their eyes full of impatience.
"As long as someone can help me handle the affairs of the north and allow me time to perfect the manufacturing technology of the flying stone. . "Perfect replied casually.
