The Witcher’s Nightmare Wagon

Chapter 148 Teacher, I Really Have This (3000 words)

"I think there are a lot of people who should have attended the last party."

Savery said, and with his voice, a huge wooden board slowly fell down from the center of the factory, on which was drawn a diagram of the equipment structure of a purely mechanical water lifter.

"This is a diagram of the equipment structure. I think many people came here with doubts, because there is a gap between theory and reality after all, it doesn't matter..."

He clapped his hands, "A purely mechanical water lifter, we have already completed it." On the left side of the platform, the prototype was displayed in front of everyone, and someone followed Savery's instructions to complete the operation.

Simple and smooth, everyone can see that the operator has no spiritual power and is just an ordinary person.

"Really!"

Everyone in the audience was talking about it, knowing it was one thing, but seeing it with their own eyes was another.

"Without spiritual power, it is possible to achieve this level purely by relying on mechanical power." Everyone sighed one after another, and their faces were full of excitement.

After that, more than a dozen people came to the stage, operated the machine by themselves, and quickly got a thorough understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of the machine.

"Everyone should be able to see that because of the pressure, this water pump can only pump water up to about 6 meters underground. If it exceeds this distance, the pressure must be increased."

"But I don't recommend everyone to do this. Excessive pressure will multiply the danger. According to this feature, we have made improvements to this water lifter."

"So there is this work, the atmospheric steam engine!"

Savery waved.

Another large plank descended from the top of the factory.

The huge factory was silent, and everyone stretched their necks to carefully analyze the principle and composition of the new steam engine.

It also includes Albert and Newcomen hiding in the crowd.

"He actually did it!"

The muscles on Albert's cheeks trembled, and his heart was filled with strange emotions. If he had persisted back then, then the person standing on the platform to share the honor with Savery...

Will there be one of my own?

No, I can't think like that.

What is this achievement? Sell a few machines to make more money, that's all, will it help me improve my strength?

Compared with the achievements of the psionic school, this progress of the mechanical school is insignificant.

Climb and enjoy your last glory, how high you are praised now, how miserable it will be to die soon, Albert suppressed the distortion in his heart, and thought freely.

"What a beautiful design."

Unlike Albert, Newcomen's level is obviously higher. Looking at the essence through phenomena, what he saw was not the birth of a simple mechanical tool, but a change in the way of thinking.

He had a hunch that after this work, Savery would definitely usher in a period of inspiration, which would greatly advance the research progress of the School of Mechanics.

The mechanical theories and knowledge that have been stagnant for many years have also been accumulated and grown.

"No, no matter what, you can't let Savery have anything to do. His wisdom and knowledge are more important to the future of the Mechanics School. I will find a way to help him solve this dilemma!"

Secretly determined, Newcomen made an important decision.

"I think everyone can understand the principle of the structure of this device. Does anyone want to try it out for themselves? Although its thermal efficiency is relatively much lower, its safety is also greatly improved."

"At the same time, the water intake radius can be as high as ten meters. In some areas with low coal prices, this is a perfect machine!"

"It's amazing, to be honest, I didn't expect anyone to be able to complete it!" A voice came from the audience.

"Yes, I'm not afraid of everyone's jokes. I came to this party with the purpose of exposing lies." Someone echoed.

"If the thermal efficiency can be improved a bit, it will be perfect!"

"Because of this problem, we actually already have some ideas." Savery took over.

"During the process of making the atmospheric steam engine, we came up with a new idea, which is still in the experimental stage. If it succeeds, it will greatly improve the thermal efficiency of this steam engine!"

Savery's sudden opening shocked everyone.

"A new idea?!"

"How long has it been?"

"Has the spring of the mechanical school really come?"

"It's not a lie, is it?" An inappropriate voice came from the crowd, it was a bearded man.

"Bart, what are you talking about?"

"Since the two gentlemen say so, it must be true."

Another voice retorted, "A precision puppet can be made, this thing must be very simple."

"For dolls!"

Others around the word immediately became excited when they heard the word.

The man who just refuted Bart even raised his hands.

"Dear sir, we have received news that you have fulfilled your dream more than ten years ago and successfully produced a purely mechanical precision puppet."

"Where is it? Take it out and show us!"

"Hey, psionic school guys, stop hiding in the crowd, get out, let you see, even without using spiritual power, pure machinery can do a lot of things!"

The man raised his arms and shouted, and the other people around him also shouted. In just a few breaths, the shouts covered the audience.

"Get out, get out!"

"Precise puppet! Precision puppet!"

Snapped!

In the crowd, Albert suddenly lifted his hood and jumped onto the high platform. At the same time, there were dozens of figures following behind him.

"It's that puppeteer, what is he doing here?" Someone recognized Albert's identity.

"Savery." Albert called him by his first name this time.

"It's really a remarkable progress. Our psionic school has completed the manufacture of steam trains and ships, but you are still pumping water here."

"As for the so-called precision puppet, it is impossible. The precision operation of a puppet can only be done through the spirit, which is something that machines can never do."

"Where's your puppet? Take it out and let us see it, let us see what you call machinery and precision." Albert sneered.

"It seems that the rumors are true!"

"Mr. Savery really made dolls!" Bart the bearded audience shouted loudly.

"Really?" Everyone looked hesitant and wait-and-see.

"That's still false, that Albert has come to the door, have you forgotten the rumors you heard before?"

"And just now, Mr. Savery has new ideas for the improvement of two consecutive machines, and even the later atmospheric steam engine!"

"This must be true!" In the crowd, several figures excitedly stirred everyone's emotions.

At this time, Sigmund hid in the dark, observed carefully, and silently recorded the figure of the other party.

"Albert, the robot you mentioned..."

"we do not have."

A sudden figure appeared strangely on the stage, standing in front of Savery.

"Who are you?" Albert pretended to be calm. He didn't expect the old man to appear on stage in person.

"Teacher?!" Savery was shocked.

"You are Albert, I have heard your name, Barry Mendel's new student." The old man lifted his hood and removed his disguise.

"Where is your teacher, where is he?"

After finishing speaking, he suddenly raised his voice, "I know about your conspiracy, and today I can tell everyone that we can't make mechanical dolls without spiritual control."

"Our path is incomplete..."

"But so what?"

Today, I, Newcomen, the fifth-level top alchemist, is willing to become the leader of the mechanical school!

Newcomen was impassioned and uttered a heavy oath.

"Teacher..." At this moment, he suddenly felt someone pulling his arm behind him.

Looking back, it was the student I was most proud of.

Savery.

"Good boy, it's the teacher's fault that caused you to suffer. After so many years, it's you who have been standing in the front, but as your teacher, you are hiding behind."

"Teacher, I..."

"Don't say anything, I understand!"

Newcomen interrupted Savery.

"In recent years, I have figured out a lot of things. At the beginning, I did something wrong. I evaded my responsibilities because of fear. I stubbornly believed that you didn't know how to adapt."

"But not today!"

"So what if we can't make precision dolls? Together, we can explore a new path!"

Newcomen smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"My student, are you willing to forgive the teacher, will we join hands to create a new future of the School of Mechanics?"

"Teacher...it's not like that."

Savery shook his head.

"You are still blaming me..." Newcomen sighed, "It's okay, I understand you."

"No, teacher, listen to me." Savery looked bitter.

We have been preparing for a long time, and we have rehearsed many times with Sigmund and Ted.

We're just waiting for today's scene, for Albert and the others to take the initiative to jump on stage.

What is it called in Sigmund's terms?

Slap in the face.

But now...

Savery looked down the stage, and the whole venue was gloomy, a fifth-level alchemist, a member of the famous Royal Industrial Research Institute.

As soon as Newcomen's name was said, everyone recognized him.

And his subsequent denial made everyone's hearts sink to the bottom of the valley, hope rose and then shattered, but Dawn saw dark clouds in the future.

Under the ups and downs, the confidence that had been gathered with great difficulty was crushed. Even with the Newcomen platform, it is impossible to recover in a short time.

Our plans were disrupted by you.

Savery thought a little messily.

"Something's coming at me!" Newcomen shouted from the stage.

"Barry Mendel!"

"Where are you?"

"Teacher, stop shouting." Savery tugged at Newcomen's sleeve again.

"I made that mechanical puppet."

"Yes, I know you can't make it, I understand what you chose..."

"etc!"

Newcomen suddenly came back to his senses, took half a step back abruptly, and looked at Savery with pain on his face.

"What did you say?"

"I said I made that kind of mechanical precision puppet!" This time, Savery had to raise the volume.
