Chapter 296 Free Flying
Flying is something that humans have always dreamed of.
In the past, this was a privilege exclusive to birds, and humans had never touched the sky.
Although magicians can fly, it can hardly be called true flight. After all, it is difficult to call continuous floating in the sky or gliding a certain distance as flying.
Although early airplanes can hardly be called real flight. When the Wright brothers' airplane first took to the sky, it did not fly for as long as a paper plane, but it was the first time that humans succeeded. Relying on sustainable power to send people to the sky.
It is not a glider, nor is it a hot air balloon, but a machine that can continuously provide power, allowing people to fly successfully and continuously.
The magnificent aviation history of mankind in the original world began with this thing that looked even cruder than a glider.
But in this world, Purficott not only kicked the wheel of history, but also equipped it with nitrogen acceleration. Now she is soaring in the sky wearing a flying knight armor.
The feeling of flying is so free, and Purficott is not bound by anything at all.
The thrust provided by the jetpack on her back was unimaginably strong. If she hadn't been holding back the output of the steam turbine, she would have performed a subsonic flight.
In fact, this set of flying knight armor is designed to allow one to fly with the output of the flight pack alone. The output power of the two 220-horsepower steam turbines is still too sufficient.
When Purficott activated the anti-gravity field of the Flying Stone, the maximum flying speed of the Flying Knight Armor was infinitely close to the speed of sound.
Perficott did not dare to try to break the sound barrier. After all, this was the first test flight. Many design details of the Flying Knight Armor were not perfect enough. Purficott was afraid that he would encounter an accident when breaking the sound barrier.
You know, when humans in the original world were studying supersonic aircraft, they had been relying on the fearless spirit of pilots to make continuous attempts and breakthroughs. In the process, too many people fell into the sky.
They used their sacrifices to prove the possibility of supersonic speed for mankind, and used their lives to prove that pilots are free souls not bound by gravity.
But Purficott still doesn't have the courage. After all, her life is of extraordinary significance to the world now.
If she died now, it would be a huge blow to the entire world.
Using the Flying Knight Armor with the Flying Stone installed to play with flying is not a big problem. Even if the Flying Knight Armor suddenly explodes, Purficott is confident enough to save his own life. A flying stone is enough to ensure she lands safely.
So Purficott dared to try the taste of flying and became the first human to fly freely.
But this is completely different from breaking the sound barrier with her own forehead. Although her body has been strengthened by alchemy and her physical strength is three times that of a normal human being, it does not mean that she can use her physical body to fight hard. Resist the huge impact caused when breaking the sound barrier.
That was an impact that could shatter a metal-skinned aircraft. Even if Purficott had confidence in the defensive power of the Flying Knight Armor, she didn't want to do it.
At least she didn’t want to be the first reckless person to do this. Therefore, after flying around the Eagle Beak Cliff twice, Purficott quickly landed.
"My Lord Earl! Before you do these dangerous things next time, can you consider the feelings of those of us who protect you?" Samantha looked very angry. With an expression on his face, he asked Purfict in a stern tone.
Faced with Samantha's questioning, Purficott just smiled and said: "Don't be too nervous Samantha, it's just a test of my new design. It is designed and produced by myself." Made in China, I have enough confidence in its performance that I can ensure my own safety even if something goes wrong
You see, I also put another flying stone on my body. Even if it stops and falls in the air, I can ensure that I land safely, so you don't have to worry so much. "
As Purficott said, she pulled out another flying stone from her collar and hung it on a chain around her neck.
Seeing that on Purficott's neck Hanging another flying stone, Samantha's face looked better now, but she still said solemnly to Purficott: "My lord, you are now responsible for the safety of the entire Northern Territory. Even if you don't think about yourself, We must also consider the stability of the entire northern territory and the empire!
If something happens to you, it will be a huge earthquake for the entire empire, and even affect the entire world! I hope you will not do such dangerous behavior again in the future! ”
“Okay! OK! I know, I will pay attention to it in the future. "Perfect was dealing with Samantha. Although he said this, there was no look on his face that he knew he was wrong.
Samantha felt helpless looking at her like this, but she couldn't say anything more.
After all, Purficott is the Earl of the North, and he is much higher than her in terms of status and status. For Purficott, Samantha's advice is that she can listen to it. She didn't want to hear that no matter what Samantha said, it would be in vain.
So Samantha did not dwell on this issue anymore, and instead persuaded Purficott: "Your Majesty, even if you want to test a new invention, you can ask your knights to come. I think White Bear Every knight in the Order will be willing to sacrifice his life for you.
Even if you think they are not suitable, you can recruit volunteers from the entire North, or even the entire Empire. I think there will be volunteers. Countless people are willing to serve you as volunteers, and there is really no need for you to try such a dangerous experiment yourself."
"No, Samantha, you don't understand, 'the first one to fly freely. I will never give up the title of "Human in the Sky" to anyone else." Purficott's face was filled with a sense of satisfaction. She took off the flying knight armor and patted herself. The new invention said: "And as an alchemist, I should be the first to try my own invention. If I have doubts about its safety, how can I let others have doubts about its safety?" Where is confidence?”
After finishing speaking, Purficott looked at the white bear knights who had gathered around. Their eyes looked at the flying knight's armor with eagerness and yearning.
Seeing their reactions, Purficott suddenly laughed. She could understand their emotions, so she smiled and said to them: "Do you want to try the feeling of flying?"
< br>The answer is naturally yes.
However, Purficott added evilly at this time: "Want to fly? No problem, as long as you can meet one prerequisite."
