Chapter 252: Chapter 178: Airship! _2
"Yes! Indeed! As soon as we were discussing my masterpiece, the Dean of Ma Deburg’s eyes lit up immediately.
"So, there’s nothing I can do to help you anymore, my body structure is completely different from any Golem you know of, we have no comparability, and I lack knowledge relating to the Golems you possess," the Golem said.
"Ah...that’s really a shame." The Dean of Ma Deburg had initially prepared a pile of professional knowledge ready to question Long Yi, but unexpectedly the Golem was the first to speak.
"What about the Golem you restored, what’s the result?" Long Yi took over the topic; he was also very interested.
"They are modest in comparison... with this, the Miss Golem. Most of those other Golems are made of steel, and perfectly driven by the Crystal Core, but they lack flexibility and the implementation of commands is blurry," said Dean Ma Deburg somewhat helplessly.
"That’s because they lack a master," the Fine Gold Golem suddenly said.
"Ah? What?" Dean Ma Deburg was taken aback
"Golems are clumsy, they can’t understand complex commands. But a contract allows them to bond with the master’s consciousness, thus enabling them to reach most of their functions."
"Please tell me in great detail!" Dean Ma Deburg’s eyes shone, staring intently at the Fine Gold Golem.
"I think we should go sit down, the flying ship is about to take off."
Long Yi took a look at the already seated crowd, and then smiled.
The flying ship was stable in the air, powered by Dragon Power, the surroundings full of low rumbling.
If we’re honest, aside from a bit of noise, it’s not that much worse in terms of stability than an airplane. And in fact, due to the large space giving everyone ample room, it’s substantially more comfortable than an average airplane cabin.
The only downfall, it might be a little slow.
The VIP seats are in the front row of the cabin, due to the separation of the operational and passenger compartments, allowing for an easy view of the scenery in front and below. For Long Yi, who is accustomed to flying in airplanes, this is no big deal. And for the Dragon Knights present, it’s not a big deal either. Naturally, it’s much more comfortable here than on the back of a Dragon.
However, it is different for Dean Ma Deburg. He was visibly tense, and even ceased talking about the Golem.
"Dean, are you okay?" Finally, when Long Yi realized Dean Ma Deburg’s complexion was a bit pale, he decided to ask.
"I’m alright, just a bit nervous," the Dean said.
"You’ve ridden in a flying ship before, what are you nervous about?" Long Yi asked curiously.
"The previous flight was only a test, and today, it’s her first time leaving our territory. There’s not just me on this ship. The Deans of the Bygones College of Engineering and the College of Magic Research are also here. But they’re all in the cockpit above, and if it weren’t for seeing you, I would’ve gone up there too. However, I assume their feelings are the same as mine, " Dean Ma Deburg said.
"Don’t worry, everything will be fine," said Long Yi.
"I’m not at ease, that’s why I’m nervous," Dean Ma Deburg responded with a bitter smile.
"Would you like to help them out, big sister?" Long Yi turned back to the Fine Gold Golem.
"Sure."
With this, the Fine Gold Golem undid the seatbelt, got up and was ready to leave.
"Where are you going?" asked Dean Ma Deburg.
"Of course, to the power center," said the Fine Gold Golem.
"This is the passenger cabin, it’s a separate area from the power center, you can’t get there," Dean Ma Deburg hurriedly spoke.
The Fine Gold Golem paused for a moment, then looked around.
"This should be a standard model of a small transport ship, if you didn’t modify the passenger cabin’s positioning, then there should be a maintenance passage here."
Saying this, the Fine Gold Golem went to the back; lifting the carpet, there was a circular engraving on the ground.
"Sure enough, it’s here."
As she said this, the Fine Gold Golem placed her hand on it, the circle rose slowly with her hand, revealing a handle inside; pulling up the handle, above her a ladder descended.
"Hm, it should be just here." The Fine Gold Golem climbed up just like that.
Dean Ma Deburg was completely dumbfounded. Before restoring this flying ship, they had already researched the entire ship inside and out, and all the ship’s parts diagrams were still in his safe. However, neither he nor the people in the Mechanics Research Institute knew that there was a maintenance passage here! There was a hidden ladder here!
At this moment, a sudden clanging sound rang out above. Soon after, the Fine Gold Golem came jumping down, the ladder retracted and the carpet was laid properly.
"You’ve added one of these parts." The approaching Fine Gold Golem held up her hand, in it was a strange device composed of several Crystal Cores.
"This is a current limiter! Without it, the stability of this flying ship could be compromised!" Dean Ma Deburg affirmed nervously, sweating profusely on his forehead.
Sure enough, the flying ship suddenly shook, the speed abruptly increased.
"The stability of the flying ship won’t be compromised. The speed of this kind of small flying ship should be faster. The current limiter you’ve added indeed enhances stability, but it can’t work for prolonged periods," said the Fine Gold Golem, moving the current limiter closer to Dean Ma Deburg, and suddenly a wave of heat hit them.
"Th...This..."
"In fact, it’s already starting to overheat."
As she said this, the Fine Gold Golem opened a nearby porthole, and threw the current limiter out.
