Chapter 119 Airship
In the breeding competition, multi-track finally won and got the final reward.Although Xuanjian was full of doubts, seeing Duogui's happy face, he didn't express his worries.After all, it is really hard to say this kind of pretentious thing, and maybe it is really the result of multi-track talent playing a role or the staff inadvertently caused it!
The prize of the competition, as known before, is a Hezhong travel ticket, which can be used by up to three people at the same time.With this travel ticket, Xuanma and Doko boarded the sightseeing airship directly from the Orange Islands to Hezhong.
"Is this kind of transportation really reliable?" Xuanjian couldn't help asking even though he boarded the airship.
Duogui looked at Xuanjian strangely: "Why is it unreliable? The airship has been used for many years, right? Ann, you must be making an airship for the first time, so you are a little nervous, don't worry!"
Xuan Jian pursed his mouth and did not speak.I think so is undoubtedly influenced by the animation of the previous life. After all, in the animation, this kind of fragile vehicle usually appears in preparation for falling.Moreover, compared with airplanes, which are completely made of metal, airships do seem to be much more fragile. The only advantage is probably that they are more environmentally friendly and energy-saving!There are very few fossil fuels in this world, so electricity is generally used as the most energy source, which is why airplanes are rarely used in this world.After all, if the speed is ignored, the airship is very advantageous in terms of load, operating cost and manufacturing cost.
As the passengers fully boarded the airship and the departure time was approaching, the staff made sure that all passengers had fastened their seat belts, and then signaled to the companions below.The cables that fixed the airship were released one by one, and the airship slowly rose into the air.After rising to a certain height, the airship began to hover in the air. The pilot first identified the direction. After confirming that the direction was correct, the engine started to work, driving the propeller to rotate rapidly, forming a huge thrust, pushing the airship to fly in the predetermined direction.
"Huh," Xuanjian exhaled heavily. The take-off process of the airship is definitely much more complicated than that of an airplane, but after flying into the sky, it is not much different from an airplane.
"Hehehe," Duogui covered his mouth and smiled at Xuanjian, "So you also have something to be afraid of! This is the first time I've seen you like this."
Xuanjian smiled, did not defend himself, but began to look at the scenery outside the window.Because it is an airship dedicated to sightseeing, the airship is surrounded by windows made of glass so that passengers can enjoy the beautiful scenery around it. But now, when you look out, you can only see a blue sea and dotted with small islands.
At this time, a team of flight attendants came over and introduced to the passengers: "Passengers, welcome to take the Mary sightseeing airship. The destination of this airship is Shuanglong City, a famous tourist city in the Hezhong area. We will follow the path of a monsoon, so the speed is much faster than the airships on other routes. However, sometimes the airship will be bumpy due to the air flow. If you have any discomfort or need help, please press the button next to the seat, and we will come to serve you..."
Appreciating the scenery outside the window, Xuanjian gradually put his worries behind him. Since airships can be popularized as a means of transportation, there must be a reason for it, and there are many differences between the two worlds. I can't use the standards of my previous life to measure things in this life.Driven by the monsoon and the propeller, the airship quickly flew towards the Hezhong area.
With the impetus of the monsoon, the speed of the airship was indeed much faster, and it left the Orange Islands very quickly. Even through the sightseeing binoculars provided on the airship, the mainland of the Hezhong area below could already be seen.After the airship entered the Hezhong area, the airship gradually slowed down and lowered its height so that passengers could see the scenery on the ground more clearly.The end point of the airship is Ssangyong City, an ancient city with various relics well preserved and of great tourist value. This is also one of the main tourist locations for Xuanjian and Duogui.
The appearance of the Hezhong area is different from that of Guandu. There are many mountains and hills, so the natural conditions of different areas are very different. Looking from the airship, different places have different scenery, which is very strange.Passengers were lying by the windows happily watching the beautiful scenery below, and Duogui and Genma were no exception.The airship also slowed down accordingly, so that everyone can enjoy sightseeing better.At this time, the superiority of the airship is reflected-the plane cannot move forward at such a slow speed.
"It's amazing, this place is so close to the sea, but it's a desert, it's unbelievable!" Duogui turned his head and said to Xuanjian, at this moment, the airship entered the sky above a desert, this land was obviously by the sea, but it turned into a desert, it's really strange!
"Probably because of the monsoon!" Xuanma explained: "Under normal circumstances, the area near the water will be more humid and have more precipitation. But if the monsoon is too strong, then after the seawater evaporates, it will be quickly taken away by the monsoon and condense into rain clouds in other areas, so that the area near the sea is a desert instead." Although he has not done much research on meteorology, Xuanma probably knows something about it. After all, he has taken a few geography classes in his previous life.The largest desert on earth is also right by the sea, but due to the monsoon, there is very little precipitation.
"I don't understand at all, there are a lot of professional terms." Duogui looked at Xuanjian, almost with circles in his eyes.
"Uh." Xuanjian was also a little helpless. The basic education in the two worlds is not at the same level, but this world is very different after all. Many powerful elves in this world will have a great impact on the climate, so the research on weather is not prosperous in this world, and most of the weather judgments are made by Pokémon.After all, there are too many interference factors caused by elves. If you use mathematical methods to judge the weather, the error rate is too high. Even in the previous life on Earth, weather forecasting is a topic that has been widely complained about.
Duogui didn't get too entangled in this issue, she was just curious for a while, and didn't have the idea to find out the root cause, but when she looked out the window again, she found out again: "Look, someone is rushing over!"
Xuan Jian looked in the direction pointed by the multi-track, and saw a group of people dressed as desert residents flying towards the airship on various elves. The leader was a man who looked a little thin. He was wearing a khaki desert robe and covered his face with a black face scarf. He was riding towards the airship on the back of a mighty desert dragonfly.Every time the desert dragonfly flapped its wings, it set off a huge storm, so that other people who rode various flying elves ran away from him.
"Ah, it's not good, it's Sand Bandits!" Someone among the passengers immediately exclaimed, "Captain (I don't know what to call it, I think it sounds better), speed up and lift off!"
The pilot of the airship also obviously found the enemy, and quickly increased the power of the engine, trying to get rid of the enemy.It's a pity that the huge airship has always been slow in climbing and speeding up, and it can't compare with the nimble bandits.The bandits soon surrounded the huge airship, and the desert dragonfly under the head of the bandit even sprayed a flame at the cockpit.
Seeing that his side was surrounded, the captain didn't dare to rush in. After all, the airship is a very fragile means of transportation. As long as the opponent attacks the airbag on the top, everyone will be unable to escape. The captain can only follow the opponent's gestures and slowly land the airship on the ground.
