LOL: I'm a bad prince in Demacia

Chapter 259

After cutting off Nocturne's idea of ​​running away.

Lu Qi then returned to the living room. At this moment, a small fire was burning in the fireplace, and the temperature dropped a lot.

Throwing two bundles of firewood in, Lu Qi didn't bother to go back to the room, and lay down on the sofa, intending to continue the dream just now.

It was a very peaceful sleep.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning came in from the window, it shone on Lu Qi's face and woke him up from his sleep.

Although I slept on the sofa last night, the quality of sleep was surprisingly good.

After waking up, my whole body was lazy, but after a lazy waist, I instantly regained my spirit.

Yurna didn't know when she got up, and she was already pouring hot water and tea.

"Good morning."

He yawned slightly, and said sooner or later.

Lu Qi suddenly smelled a burnt smell, followed the smell, and saw Moteng lying on the corner of the wall with his limbs open, like a dead dog, with a spoiled expression on his face.

His eyes turned white, and the already black hair all over his body looked even blacker, some were stiff and straight, and there was a burnt smell, as if he had been roasted by fire.

"What is he doing again?"

Seeing this, Lu Qi was a little surprised.

Yuerna, who was pouring tea, was as calm as ever when she heard the words, and said in a cold voice, "Your Highness may have misunderstood him this time."

Lu Qi was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

Yuerna said: "His Royal Highness slept last night and spoke electronically all night."

When the voice fell, Lu Qi was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at Mo Teng again, and he probably understood the reason.

Then he said with emotion: "I seldom talk in my sleep, I didn't expect to meet you."

Nocturne: "."

Take a look, are you speaking human language?

He was almost electrocuted to death overnight, is this the attitude now?

Don't you even have a little bit of guilt?

For a moment, he couldn't tell who was the dog.

At this time, footsteps came from the second floor, and then Miss Guanwei yawned and walked down. She had a good night's sleep, her hair was messed up, one hair was raised up, and her small face was leisurely and comfortable.

"Good morning."

The voice greeted lazily, and Lacus sat on the sofa.

Yurna happened to place a cup of hot water on the table in front of her.

After thanking her, Lacus held the water glass and drank it in small sips.

Lu Qi looked at her and said, "Today we will formally go to worship our ancestors, so we are going to go back."

"Ah."

Lacus nodded her head, her ecstatic eyes had already begun to miss the day of returning to the capital.

After a while, Sona, Poppy, Katerina, and Frey also woke up.

Everyone packed up and was ready to go.

On the way, join Galen's team, and they all head towards Fossian's tomb together.

I don't know how many times I have walked this road in the past few days, and I am a little more familiar with it.

Looking at this mountain road that she felt tortured when she was a child, Lux suddenly had many inexplicable feelings in her heart.

When she came here as a child, it just rained in the sky. She only remembered how difficult the road was, how tired she was, and how cold the air was. When she arrived, she counted in her heart and wanted to leave early.

Now that she was on this road again, she suddenly noticed many details that she hadn't noticed.

There are signs of spring revival in the mountains and forests, the grass is profusely puffed up, and the wild flowers all over the ground are connected to form a flower bush.

Walking halfway up the mountain, when you look up, you will see the blue sky and cloudless sky, with flocks of birds flying by in the sky, everything seems to be full of peace.

It turned out that this was the scenery that she had never noticed at the time.

The most important thing was that Lux looked to her side, and Lu Qi, who was climbing the mountain with her, yawned.

It seems that mountain climbing is not particularly boring.

She thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "You have climbed this mountain a few times, do you have anything to say?"

Climbing the mountain early in the morning is actually not in line with the style of an old man like Lu Qi.

He sighed slightly: "I don't have anything to say, I just think that after climbing this mountain in the morning, I can show off an extra bowl of rice when I go back."

Lux was speechless for a while, touched her stomach, and then nodded: "Indeed."

This time I went out without even eating breakfast, and when I climbed halfway up the mountain, I felt a little hungry.

But everyone still insisted on climbing to the top of the mountain and came to the cliff where Fossian lived.

The cliffs are still overgrown with wild grass, and lonely tombs stand on the raised hills, and the cold wind from the high mountains blows along with the tombs.

Galen and Lux ​​stepped forward, and solemnly began to worship the ancestors.

I don't know why, but in the process of offering sacrifices to the ancestors, Galen always felt chilly all over his body, as if he was being targeted by something.

And Lacus clasped his hands together, seemingly devoutly worshiping and praying to the ancestors, but in fact he was frantically making small reports in his heart.

From Galen to blame her for bedwetting.When it came time to play the game later, he was tall and tall and played the hero, and she could only be the villain.Furthermore, Galen always secretly reports to his mother
Like counting the sins Galen committed, Lux kept thinking about it.

If great-grandfather had a spirit in heaven, he must help her vent her anger.

Thus, in Lacus' devout prayer, the ancestor worship came to an end.

Galen got up from the ground, his complexion was not very good, and he didn't know why he always had a bad feeling.

"Captain, what's wrong?"

Diadolu felt that his expression was wrong, so he asked more.

"It's nothing."

Galen shook his head, always feeling something strange, but couldn't put it into words.

Then, everyone started their return journey, and just as they were about to leave the cliff, the stone road under Galen's feet suddenly snapped open.

He fell forward and hit the tree in front of him, making a crisp "dong".

This time, everyone froze in place.

When Lux saw it, her eyes lit up, and she wanted to clap her hands and applaud.She thought of something, turned her head and took a peek at the tomb of her great-grandfather, folded her hands again and bowed slightly.

And Galen, who hit his head against the tree, stood up straight with a dark face, extremely puzzled in his heart, completely confused about the situation.

He couldn't even react to such a thing?
Behind them, a few team members held back their laughter and walked forward hypocritically.

"Ah, captain, what's going on here."

"It's fine, why did it hit a tree?"

"It's rare for the captain to make such a mistake."

"Captain, your head is not broken, is it? That sound was really loud just now."

Lu Qi also liked to join in the fun, and suddenly realized: "I understand, Brother Lun wants to test everyone, whether it is a human head is harder, or a tree is harder!"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a echo of "So it is", "It turned out to be like this", and "As expected of the captain".

After this wave, Galen's face became darker and darker, and his mood was extremely cracked.

The atmosphere of the morning, in Galen, the tree and the head iron, ended happily.

Back in the small town of Forsbarrow, in order to celebrate Lu Qi and Galen helping the town eliminate the demons, Judge Giselle specially prepared a banquet after they left.

The food and drinks had been prepared, and everyone who had just returned to the town immediately threw themselves into the banquet.

The banquet was very pleasant, and Lacus showed off four bowls of rice in a very good mood.

One bowl was for climbing a mountain, and the other was for Galen hitting a tree.

And the little black dog was ignored by people, sitting in isolation outside the feast, watching people talking and drinking with a hungry stomach.

Before coming to this body, Nocturne didn't need to eat. Human food was far less delicious to him than the fear in his nightmare.

But it's different now. At this moment, he is basically equivalent to a mortal body, and he will also feel hungry.

I'm a little hungry right now.

At the end of his hunger, even if it was a bowl of leftovers that Lu Qi gave him, he would eat it quite quickly.

After eating, Moteng couldn't help suspecting Mosheng, sitting there with a bleak face, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.

He is the majestic master of nightmares, and now he has been reduced to the point where he lives on leftovers.

Such a tragic situation made him suddenly feel that his future magic life would be dark.

It's a banquet, and there will be an end.

The morning time passed by in a flash, and soon it was time to say goodbye.

At the gate of the town, all the residents of the town came out to see them off. After saying goodbye, Lu Qi and others embarked on the journey back.

Not long after leaving Fossbarrow Town, Galen found Lu Qi to say goodbye.

This time when they came to Forsbarrow Town, they suddenly received a letter asking for help. Now that the matter is resolved, they naturally have to continue to the next mission.

So, after agreeing to meet again in the king's capital, Galen led his team and left directly from the other direction.

In a blink of an eye, it was February 22.

On the way back to the capital, Lu Qi also witnessed that spring was getting closer along the way.

The buds on the tree sprouted, and the green leaves appeared in patches, and the wind that blew was a bit springy. Unknowingly, it seemed that the cold was no longer felt.

Time is like this, always changing inadvertently.

On the way back, of course, it was the same. We passed through Miril City and stayed for a day, and then we went to Veros, Lithos, Pinara, and Edessa.

Arrived at the gate of Wangdu City this afternoon.

It took nearly a month to go out this time, and after returning to the capital, Lu Qi and the others also felt a little bit of fatigue on their bodies and gradually relaxed.

After entering the city, the king's capital has not changed, it is still the big city in the impression.

Lax, who was eager to return home, went home immediately, and Sona also missed her sister and family, so everyone separated temporarily.

Lu Qi also went to the palace first, and after briefly reporting the matter to Jiawen III and Tiana, he left the palace.

He got into the carriage prepared by Urna, and went all the way to the research and development base of the scientific research institute.

In fact, recently, he was more concerned about the progress of the steam engine and the train.

After arriving at the scientific research institute, Wen Huade was leading a group of scientific researchers to test the train outside the spacious area.

Now there is a wider track built outside, and the train running on it is constantly making "bang bang bang" sounds, and is constantly advancing in circles, and the forward speed remains unchanged.

"Your Highness."

Seeing Lu Qi approaching, Wen Huade nodded.

Lu Qi looked ahead and asked, "Has the stability of the steam engine been settled?"

"Well." Wen Huade nodded lightly, and said: "Now the steam engine can provide stable power, and after improvement, it no longer consumes as much material as it did before, and it is relatively affordable. However, to solve this problem After solving problems, we also found that new problems followed one after another.”

Immediately, Wen Huade started talking slowly, while Lu Qi listened.

The problem encountered by the scientific research institute at the beginning was the stability and energy consumption of the steam engine. Due to the excessive consumption of coal, the steam engine was not so stable and wasted too much resources.

Now, this has been resolved.

However, the problems seem to emerge endlessly, and the research institute has encountered new problems.

The problem moved to the train.

Simply put, there are currently two issues.

One: It is the problem of the train rollers and the track. If a train wants to move forward stably, the phases of the wheels and the track must be coordinated, otherwise it will easily cause derailment.

Second: It is a speed issue. After many tests, Wen Huade found that the kinetic energy provided by the steam engine was somewhat overflowing.In other words, the speed of the train is different from the kinetic energy brought by the steam engine.

In other words, it ran a little slowly.

The Academy of Sciences is trying to break through these two problems, and has probably figured out a solution so far.

Lu Qi believed in their abilities, and he said what should be said.

The slow speed is due to air resistance, as long as the front of the car is transformed into a shape more suitable for air resistance, Lu Qi basically uses a streamlined front.

The air flow will also affect the speed, and it is enough to add barriers between the cars to prevent the air from entering.

Now the Academy of Sciences is thinking about how to solve these problems.

After all, what they have to consider is not just as simple as what Lu Qi said, but what they are building is a real steel giant.

If the speed is too fast, it is easy to derail. Therefore, Luqi Wheels recommends using conical wheels with a small outer diameter and a larger inner diameter. Coupled with suitable rails, basically as long as there is no impact, it will not derail.

In general, the problems encountered so far are not problems.

Quite a bit of prosperity.

Another important thing is the use of steam engines.

The steam engine is not only used as a power source for trains.

Its functions are quite extensive, and the steam engine that has been tested and stabilized is ready to be put into use.

For example, a forging machine was recently transformed by the Research Institute.

It is powered by a steam engine, which can almost replace the strength of three people, so it can be said to save energy.

There are many powerful blacksmiths in Demacia who create high-quality equipment. With forging machines, these excellent blacksmiths will not be strangers.

On the contrary, it will open a very convenient route for them.

There are other uses, such as printing presses.

At present, the printing presses used are basically hand-operated printing presses.

After the steam engine started to be used, the printing press did not need to invest manpower, it only needed to set a stable operation program.

And there are countless applications like this.

This is the change that machinery will bring to an era.

Lu Qi believes that this is just the beginning.
