Start with an Archangel

The masters of the jury believe that the speed-enhanced single-masted No. 1 ship designed by Daliang will activate some alchemical equipment or magic circle that can increase the speed of the ship while sailing.

However, after they sailed around the sea and realized that this single-masted battleship was much faster than the basic model, they all stepped off the ship in confusion.

"How is this possible? The internal structure of this single-masted battleship is almost the same as the ordinary model. Only the shape of the bow has been slightly changed. How can it be possible to increase the speed of the ship so much? You discovered on the ship while sailing Is there magic energy?"

"No, I didn't find anything."

"I wonder if you have noticed the change in the bow part of the ship? The bow of this single-masted battleship is more pointed and has very good wave-breaking performance. At the same time, it does not affect the steering ability of the ship. I guess the reason for all this is that It is caused by the bulge under the bow of the ship. As for the principle of this, I have not figured it out."

Daliang's speed-enhanced single-masted No. 1 ship greatly shocked the masters of the jury. When they gathered to discuss the design principle of the bulbous bow, Kui Tu walked up to Daliang and said.

"You actually developed a bulbous bow in the game? I also made a suggestion to my mentor to increase the speed of the ship, but the ship designers in this game don't seem to realize the consumption of power caused by water fluctuations. , without this front-end technology, it would be impossible to study the bulbous bow. It seems that your instructor has already conducted in-depth research on the impact of water fluctuations on ships."

Seeing all the ship designers with incredible expressions, especially the masters on the jury, they couldn't wait to get into the water to study the appearance of the bulbous bow, which made Daliang very proud.

"So so, my mentor is a master who can design third-level battleships. He has been studying how to increase ship speed and design second-level battleships for many years, and has made some achievements in reducing water wave resistance. Therefore, I proposed to him a bulbous bow The design was quickly researched by him, and everything fell into place.”

Kuitu knew that Daliang's mentor was a master ship designer, but he didn't expect that he was a master who could design a third-level battleship.

However, through his mentor, Kui Tu knew that there were only two ship design masters in China who could design third-level battleships. One was in Hong Kong City and the other was in Beixing City. He had never heard of such a master in Shangjiang.

Is Daliang lying?

But no matter what, being able to have a master ship designer already made Aoido envious, and he easily developed a bulbous bow.

To increase the speed of a single-masted battleship, and to increase the survivability of a single-masted battleship, how do you think that increasing the speed of a single-masted battleship requires a higher level of design.

Aoi Tu came with full expectations for the Ship Design Master Medal, but he did not expect to encounter a better warship design than himself here.

Aoi Tu sighed silently. At this time, the jury also made the final ranking of the ship designs participating in the review.

“The ship designs participating in this session allow us to see the future of ship design, especially the design of the two single-masted battleships. If it can be widely used, it will definitely bring about earth-shaking changes to future ships.

It is difficult for us to choose who should win between the single-masted combat ship and the speed-enhanced single-masted No. 1 ship.

However, after careful discussion by our jury, we unanimously believe that the watertight cabin technology used in single-masted combat ships is more practical. It can allow our warships to survive longer in wars and give some seriously injured warships a chance to be safe. Arrival port for repairs.

Therefore we declare the winner of this year's ship design to be..."

What a turn of events, Aoi Tu never expected that his design would eventually be selected as the winner by the masters of the jury. It seems that although the masters have surrendered, in their hearts they are still worried about the actions of the Grand Palace. It seems that he is the one who has the last laugh.

"I object to the judging team's review of this year's winners."

Just when the jury was about to announce the winner as the sloop, a voice suddenly appeared on the dock.

Then Giese pushed through the crowd and came over.

A certain jury master said: "Master Geese, you are not qualified to question the jury's judgment."

Giese said: "Matthew, I know you. When I successfully designed the third-tier battleship 'Conqueror', you had just been promoted to master ship designer. And the highest achievement of the five of you was only to be able to design four - level battleship. I think I am fully qualified to question your judgment.”

Although it was not a big secret in the Ship Designers Association that Giese had a brain problem, his achievements were there.

Each level of battleship has a technological leap forward. Although the third-level battleship and the fourth-level battleship are only one level apart, there is an insurmountable technological gap.

As a person who can design third-level battleships, Geese is indeed qualified to question the judgment of the jury.

Of course, what Keith can do is just a question. He can tell his own reasons, but the final decision is still in the hands of the jury.

Therefore, the masters of the jury did not engage in verbal disputes with Guise, but allowed Guise to express his own opinions.

Anyway, we just don’t award winners to your disciples.

"Okay, Master Gith. You have made extraordinary achievements in ship design, and we are also willing to hear your opinions on the design of these two sloop battleships."

With permission, Giese said: "As for the speed-enhanced single-masted No. 1 ship designed by my disciples, everyone has seen that it has pointed out a feasible way for us to break through the design of second-level battleships. Its significance is to me. Say no more.

As for the watertight cabin technology added to the single-masted combat ship...

In fact, the reason for my confusion now is the research on watertight cabin technology.

Watertight cabin technology can not only improve the survivability of the ship, but also reduce the material used inside the hull to reduce its weight.

However, I found that if a watertight compartment is added to the hull, the use of ribs must be greatly reduced. The impact of weakened internal support on the hull is not obvious on a sloop. However, once a watertight compartment is added to the hull of a two-masted or three-masted battleship, the weakened pressure-bearing capacity of the hull will not allow it to bear a superstructure that is too tall and heavy.

To solve this problem, the only way to design the hull is to flatten it to disperse the pressure on the superstructure.

The flatness of the hull will slow down the ship's speed and reduce the number of guns deployed.

Of course, the application of watertight cabin technology on merchant ships is still good. The reduction of internal materials allows more space and can accommodate more cargo.

But as a battleship... if you don't improve the strength of the hull through alchemy and use conventional materials to transform the watertight compartment, at least I haven't done it before I had a problem with my head. "
