Chapter 849: Another precursor

Calvin did not show any excitement, and Gregory had reason to believe that if this phenomenon was discovered by himself, then he must now boast of his achievements to those around him.
"This was found a few days ago in an undergraduate general book published by the Principality of Sad Wind."
Calvin, who was listless, took out a book, and Gregory took a look at it, and he was stunned.
"Later, I remembered that something similar had been mentioned in a certain classic, so I went and found it..."
Gregory opened the undergraduate general reading in his hand while listening to Calvin's explanation.
Calvin pouted and snorted: "It turns out that it really exists! The ancient mages have already discovered this phenomenon, but they didn't pay attention to it because of it. Instead, they just recorded it and never again. Leave it alone."
But this is not so difficult to understand. After all, no matter before or now, the wizards can drive ‘magic power’.
Just looking at it now, the ancient masters who practiced mysticism are indeed stupid!
All particles or quanta can be described not only in particle terms, but also in wave terms... Light has both wave characteristics and particle characteristics...
How many mage's worldviews will be destroyed if the contents of this book are released?
Even Gregorian, a mechanic who is not a mage, was alarmed by the content of this undergraduate general reading. The stuff inside is really terrible!
"This undergraduate general book has not been officially released, and I have not seen it for others." Calvin explained lazily, "This book was sent directly through the Glorious Church. After you have read it, you will have to send it. Go to the military and show the chief of the battlefield mage..."
At this time, Gregory only noticed the sights of other R&D department members, and their sights fell on the book in his hand.
Gregory closed the book expressionlessly, and then there was a lost look on those members' faces.
But he won't give this book to them, even letting him tell the content of the book is impossible!
The contents of this'Science Books' are too shocking and far from being accessible to them now. Since Calvin will do that, it means that in a short time, the principality is not ready to release this book. .
After closing the books, Gregory also felt a little sorrowful, it was a pity that he could not get more knowledge.
"So what?" Gregorian carried the book in his hand, did not intend to let go, raised his chin and pointed to the machine on the table, "What's the use?"
With his elbows on the table, Calvin propped his head in one hand and sighed, "A machine that can transmit information over long distances using electric current as a medium."
Gregory suddenly widened his eyes, "What do you say...?"
"That is to say—" Calvin turned to look at Gregory. "Our railway is saved!"
Looking silently at the familiar and strange person in front of him, Gregory took a few deep breaths, trying to calm down his beating heart, but with little success.
He walked over, his index finger knocked on the table, Shen Sheng asked: "How to use?"
Seeing Gregory's attitude, Calvin also sat up straight and pressed his lips, "I'll say it first, this is not purely mechanical creation!"
"It's okay!" Gregory shook his head firmly. "As long as we can have our own long-distance communication method, it is enough for those old nobles... They have so repulsed magic, but are they also using magic creations themselves?"
Hearing Gregorian say this, Calvin grinned and finally lifted his nerves.
"Thirty-two'input' buttons represent the thirty-two letters of the common language. Press one button, the mechanical button at the other end of the wire will also bounce, and at the same time, the corresponding character will also hit the'ribbon' 'On, then the ink on the ribbon will be printed on the paper."
Calvin pulled a piece of white paper from the side, stuffed all the paper into the machine, and rolled the roller to adjust the white paper to a usable state.
"If it were a purely mechanical creation, it is impossible to directly convert the current into text, but I used a little'trick' in it." Calvin rubbed his fingers with a smile, in the Ogden Empire , The nobles like to use this word to describe magic.
Subsequently, Calvin smiled proudly: "After input, we can not only get an output file, but also get an input backup! If something goes wrong, we can also use the backup for comparison and processing."
Gregory nodded approvingly, and he couldn't help expressing his words.
The other R&D department members and You Rong Yan, because they also have their credit.
"It's just... The ribbon material is more expensive." Calvin hesitated.
Gregory, who was still a little excited, frowned suddenly, expensive?
"What did you use?" Gregory asked with some confusion.
Calvin smiled awkwardly, turned his head and whispered, "Silk..."
"Hi!"
Gregory couldn't help closing his eyes.
"But it can be used repeatedly, just need to dip ink!" Calvin explained hurriedly, but even so, the manufacturing cost of the ribbon is still very high.
"At most, at most, you need to use some "little tricks"..."
Gregory knew Calvin would say that.
According to his previous explanation, silk is not a very suitable material as a ribbon, the cost is not mentioned for a while, the output is still very low, and the waterproof property is not good.
It must be very troublesome to use silk to make ‘ribbons’, and according to Calvin’s present statement, it also needs to be involved in manufacturing by magic means, which is even more troublesome.
Either find a new material to replace it, or train more wizards, otherwise this thing will not be able to spread, and mass production will not be possible.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong, who should repair it?
Machines such as steam locomotives, which can only be used by state-level organizations, do not need to care about whether magic is involved, because as long as it is a country, there must be the existence of mages, as long as those mages understand the repair method is enough Too.
But like this machine, it doesn't work. They don't have so many mages to equip.
So Calvin will not be known at the beginning. Isn't this "pure mechanical creation"?
"...Can the ribbon be stored?" Gregory asked, rubbing his temples with a headache.
Calvin's chicken nodded like a peck, his eyes filled with expectations, "Can, of course! But... there is a "shelf life"."
After hearing this, Gregory thought for a moment, and then put on a table, "Let your people bring the machinery, don't you have two as a group? Take both of them, then we go to Yongdi Palace and let His Majesty personally Come to decide."
Excited with a clap of hands~EbookFREE.me~ Calvin beamed with joy.
Gregorian has already said that, so maybe this thing is done!
Next, almost half of the people in the R&D department were busy. They not only had to move the machine itself, but also needed to prepare some lines and some spare parts.
No one knows if there will be any problems. If the machine is brought under the majesty and they are completely unusable due to some malfunction, they will be embarrassed.
Gregorian and Calvin took the carriage and headed to the Yongdi Palace first. They had to go and report this matter to His Majesty first.
Although they do not need to report at all in and out of Yongdi Palace, others need to apply in advance.
But Your Majesty also knows the importance of things, so as long as they apply, they will be accepted.
It is likely that another era is coming! (https:)
