Chapter 105 The Breath of War

Annan didn't even have to think too much about it.

Just hearing about this invention, he can directly conclude that there is something wrong with this person 100%.

Even if he directly tinkered with an electric power system in this era when the internal combustion engine was not yet popular, and even created a high-voltage line transmission in one step, Annan could even be regarded as an outstanding talent and a genius.

After all, the production of electricity in this world does not even require magnetoelectricity technology. With the right rituals, large amounts of electricity are directly and cheaply available—and one of the greatest advantages of electricity is that it can be transported over long distances at low cost.

...But you directly transmit heat energy over a long distance, isn't this technology a bit too much?

Even if "Denisoa" here refers specifically to the island itself, not the entire United Kingdom. Its area is only about one-sixth of Noah's land area.

But this is almost equivalent to the area of ​​the entire territory of Austria, and it is about a little smaller than a province of the Celestial Dynasty.

...But the whole line from west to east only loses 12%?

This is still a level where the technology has just been developed and has not yet been optimized.

Good guy, this is really a good guy.

——Even the loss of power transmission is not so low?

Annan himself was a great ceremonial master. Although he lost a lot of mysterious knowledge accumulated during the Black Annan period, his intuition also told him that it was almost impossible.

If this was an invention that could be accomplished using only "rituals", then Hei Annan would probably have rubbed it out a few years after he came into the world. There is no need to tinker with an internal combustion engine from scratch.

And if it can be done, why does it have to transfer heat?

What is he trying to do?

Isaac, who was standing behind Annan, also realized the problem: "It's impossible - thermal energy is not suitable for low-cost long-distance transportation. It is not only impossible, but also meaningless."

At least in this era, because of the existence of green fire and black fire, heat energy is not particularly scarce.

Constrained by the vision of the times... The current Isaac doesn't realize what this means.

very beginning,

Electric energy can only be used as industrial energy in a small area. After more than 100 years, with the application of many consumer electrical appliances, the electrical age has really arrived.

In this era, the internal combustion engine has not yet entered the application period.

And Isaac is an "old antique" who lived more than a hundred years ago.

He couldn't understand the value of energy transmission technology for the first time...but Annan was different.

However, Annan did not explain this for the time being.

"There must be meaning. As long as energy is involved, technologies that can safely transport energy at low cost make sense anyway."

Annan shook his head and brought the topic to a more critical point: "Even if it doesn't make sense now, there will be in the future... The question now is, how did this develop?"

"We don't know either..."

The blackbird spread out its hands, also looking helpless: "But it just exists.

"On our side, there were a lot of people who didn't believe him at first. So Earl Flamel conducted many experiments under the watchful eyes of everyone, and each time it went very smoothly.

"So I have to believe it. With this thing, even the Field Islands will no longer have to worry about energy."

And hearing this, the first reaction that popped up in Isaac's heart was:

——Isn’t the Field Islands not short of energy?

Today is not the past.

In the previous era, the main energy sources of the people came from coal mines and whales. The former is mainly used to supply steam engines, while kerosene and whale oil can be used for lighting.

Denisawia's overall coal resources are quite scarce, and it must be given priority to the local Denisawia. In the surrounding Field Islands, only freshly cut firewood can be used for heating in winter.

And the business of whaling does not necessarily have to be done by Denisauer.

The Field Islands are scattered islands floating on the west side of Denisaua in the form of broken islands. The direction of the ocean current in this part is from west to east, so the whaling tradition of the Field Islands is not inferior to that of Denisoa.

And since the civilization of black fire and green fire was started, the Field Islands no longer have to worry about the problem of energy shortage.

Technology from Zedi Black Tower can refine substances like natural gas and oil into black fire. Diluted and inerted, it can further create a green fire.

The biggest advantage of these two energy sources is that they can store more energy in the same volume.

Black fire can ignite a flame that is hotter, longer-lasting, and less easily extinguished—in certain furnaces, black fire can even be used to make steel.

Among these two energy sources, the black fire has a slightly unpleasant smell, while the green fire with a lower temperature has no smoke at all.

Green fire can convert energy into light as much as possible... Only a small piece of green fire is needed, it can burn for a long time, and it can also prevent wind and shake. So it is used as a raw material for urban street lamps... This is of course not because local managers attach importance to municipal engineering. Its premise must be because green fire is cheap and durable enough.

And in the United Kingdom.

Or, in the Field Islands... the situation is slightly different.

Because of the existence of pirates, the transportation of energy is not necessarily stable.

Because of this, black fire and green fire, which are very cheap in other countries—even in Denisoa itself, can fetch very high prices in the Field Islands.

And the big part of this money is not earned by Zedi Heita as the exporter or Denisauer as the importer.

It's the pirate gangs who cut off the goods and sell them themselves.

Because black fire and green fire have a long shelf life, it is entirely possible to hoard black fire and sell it.

They will deliberately control the sales of black fire and green fire in the area they control, and use the reason of "rare things are more expensive" to slowly release a batch of goods, and raise the price by three or four times.

This is also one of the main sources of income for pirates.

"Wait, so..."

Isaac's pupils shrank.

He suddenly reacted.

He immediately realized why the blackbird just said that it was "a cross-age invention 'for the United Kingdom'".

Its real significance is not based on the invention itself, the various emerging civilian technologies that may be born.

——Instead, the black fire was directly stuck in Denisaua, and no longer flowed to the Field Islands. Directly use the "heat transmission cable" limited energy supply.

With this method, you can directly strangle those pirates by their throats!

this means……

King Denisaw is trying to calm down the pirates? !

And Earl Flamel is just a target launched to attract the hatred of pirates...

Isaac suddenly realized something, raised his head and looked at Annan.

They knew it in each other's eyes - and this man sensed it too!

——If there is no accident, Denisaua will soon have civil strife.

A real civil war may be ushering in!
