Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane

Soon, the swallow saw the second figure rushing out of the rubble and fog, steadily chasing the flying saucer in the sky.

She is more familiar with this figure, and it is the dragon drone that she herself has flew many times!

However, although Lu Yuan installed the Pegasus turbofan engines used by two Harrier fighters, the maximum flight speed can reach Mach 0.92, but the speed is still not on the same level as that of the fleeing flying saucer.

However, after the third loud bang, a gap suddenly appeared at the bottom of the plate that was erected in the air, which made the swallow understand what a destructive pursuit is.

"That was just now. Could it be the thing you said? When did you make it?" The swallow who reacted to the drone, while asking someone who had been out of touch for a long time in the communicator. road.

"Hey, it seems that I came at the right time?" Soon, there was a little bad voice from the opposite side of the communication device, which was Lu Yuan, who hadn't heard from him for a long time.

"Grinding the gun in the battle, finally let me make it out!"

"Hypersonic large-caliber electromagnetic rail gun!"

Hypersonic speed refers to a speed above Mach 5, which is five times the speed of sound.

Because the speed is fast enough, the second and third shells just successfully hit the flying saucer that dazzled in the air with unreasonable maneuverability.

It can be said to be really using magic to deal with magic.

The projectile just fired by Luyuan's large-caliber electromagnetic rail gun is an arrow-shaped tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile with a mass of tens of kilograms, which is much larger than the electromagnetic projectile used by Swallow Turner in the rear compartment of the helicopter.

Moreover, to prevent flying saucers, the initial velocity of those guns can reach at least ten times the speed of sound.

In this way, the kinetic energy of the projectile’s muzzle can reach a terrifying order of magnitude close to gigajoules.

According to unit conversion, 1 kilowatt-hour is equal to 3.6 megajoules, and one gigajoule is about 278 kilowatt-hours.

It is important to know that the generating power of a unit of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station is 700,000 kilowatts. That is to say, one hour of power generation is 700,000 kilowatt-hours, and one second is only 194 kilowatt-hours.

To provide sufficient muzzle kinetic energy for this projectile, relying on a generator set of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station to supply energy, it takes more than a second to complete.

This is still not calculating the loss during energy conversion. In fact, half of the successful conversion can be called high efficiency in the past.

Calculated in this way, the entire Three Gorges 30 units can supply power to it at the same time, so that it can reach the level of several transmissions per second.

However, in fact, the daily power generation of the Three Gorges Hydropower Station is between 300 and 400 million kWh, 1 kWh equals 1 kWh, and the average power generation per hour is only about 10 million kWh. Divided by 30 units, one unit The power generation of the unit is only over 300,000 kilowatts.

In other words, about half of the units of a hydropower station in normal operation are in a non-working state.

As a result, installing gates of this type of rail cannon around the Three Gorges Dam can only fire three to five rounds per second.

With such a huge energy consumption, it is no wonder that this weapon has not appeared on the real battlefield for a long time.

Probably because of this, the interval between the three shells before Lu Yuan was not short.

But even so, is it difficult to have a small Three Gorges Dam in your hand?

Although Yanzi has not seriously experienced school education on the side of science and technology, she has used electromagnetic guns after all, and she has enough intuitive feelings about the energy consumption of this thing.

So she immediately asked Lu Yuan, "You solved the energy problem? Could it be that you used up all the soul stones in your inventory? Or did you just use the energy in your crystal pendant?"

The crystal pendant is the Thunderbolt that leads far away, swallowing a huge amount of energy from the soul stone mound of the annihilation realm on the plane of Nin.

If it can be converted and used, it is not a problem to provide a large-caliber electromagnetic gun.

However, Lu Yuan obviously has no time to solve the problem of energy conversion between different systems in different worlds.

You can’t use magical energy to burn a boiler to generate electricity, right?

That can really be a boiler for everything, and the majority of energy and power engineering students are ecstatic.

"How come!" Lu Yuan was also inspired by Swallow's words for a while, but soon forced himself to calm down, "That thing is not something that can be handled by a temporary gun in battle!"

"Don't we have a substitute! Do you remember that thing?"

"Huh?" The Yanzi was attracted by Lu Yuan's words, and hurriedly recalled what trophies they had collected for energy.

It didn't take long before she thought of the thing, "You mean, that nuclear submarine?"

"Bingo! That's right!" Lu Yuan smiled. "The output power of that thing's reactor is 380 megawatts, which is barely enough!"

"That's it!" Yanzi finally understood.

What Yanzi didn't know was that nuclear submarine reactors alone were not enough. After all, that thing has been burning for many years, and the output power is not as high as the rated power when it was first launched.

If it only relies on its output for energy, it would take several seconds to charge each shell, or even tens of seconds or tens of seconds.

But this is only an order of magnitude difference, and the swallows who have not calculated carefully cannot react.

And in between, Lu Yuan used magic to get things done.

Simply put, it is to use magic to control the neutron flux of the reactor core and forcibly increase the output power of the reactor.

With the concentration of nuclear materials in the fuel rods of a nuclear submarine reactor, although a nuclear explosion will not occur, once it is out of control, it is a high probability event that the entire core is melted.

In fact, Lu Yuan also started to build a new large-caliber electromagnetic rail gun before getting the required energy figures from Siafi. , And even need to be charged for a long time.

But at that time, being crushed and beaten by Trevor's changed double-sword green lizards, he had no other good options, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet.

At first, he even thought it would be a big deal to use the original 100g-weight small ammunition, anyway, the purpose is to make the too flexible green lizard unable to dodge his kill attack, and there is no requirement for the kinetic energy of the muzzle.

But even so, because of the kinetic energy formula, the mass is reduced by an order of magnitude, and the kinetic energy is only reduced by an order of magnitude. The reduction in energy consumption at the expense of the quality of the projectile is actually not obvious.

At least not enough to make the electromagnetic guns turn into bursts.

Driven to a desperate situation, Lu Yuan thought about it, and finally decided to ask magic for help.

Although using magic to assist physics will lose its adaptability under different cosmic rules, at least it is a completely usable technology on the current plane.

In this way, Lu Yuan took another big step forward on the evil road of the demonized engineer.

You know, the technology he is using now to confine neutrons by magic, a little improvement, maybe it will allow him to achieve controllable nuclear fusion in this area...

Accidentally, he faintly became the person who would bring the biggest change to this face.

Although it seems from the beginning, this seems to be an inevitable stop on his path forward.
