Chapter 80 Winter Fortress Version 1.0
Leonard, Sheldon, Howard, and Raj, the four good friends came to David with a box in their hands, all of them were happy.
"We made it, look!"
David looked at the few people wearing a few thin coats, did not rush to look at the things in Leonard's hand, and called the few people to go to the cafeteria: "Go to the cafeteria first, if you talk here, you will all get cold .”
"I think David is right." Raj can speak normally when there are no women around, and he is also the first person to realize that the temperature is too low. After all, he comes from a very hot country, and now he lives in an area where the seasons are like spring: "If I stay for another minute, I will become an ice sculpture and stay on this land forever."
"In that case, you might become a landmark attraction in Cold Winter Village." Howard posed in a frozen-to-death posture, then rushed into the cafeteria trembling with his shoulders in his arms.
David and Mark followed a few people into the cafeteria at the end. The four had already sat at the bar and asked Jonah for hot soup or a hot drink.
David didn't rush to urge, and waited for several people to drink hot drinks one after another and warmed up before asking: "Have you figured out how to use the energy in the crystal mine?"
"Yes." Howard brought the box that Leonard was holding in front of David, and opened the lid of the box so that David could see what was inside: "It's actually very simple, not as much as we thought before." complex."
David looked down, and there were some very simple circuits in the box, and there was a light bulb at the end—everyone who went to elementary school has seen this thing, and even made it by himself.
As soon as this thing came out, David understood what Howard wanted to express: "What do you mean, can the crystal mine be used as a battery?"
"Hmm~" Howard took out a small crystal ore, put it into the special card slot, connected the switch that was originally disconnected, and the light bulb turned on: "Long-lasting and stable."
"It's so simple...how did you find this out?"
David just asked casually, but unexpectedly, this question made Howard's pride disappear quickly, and he changed into an embarrassed expression, muttering in a very unnatural tone: "Put the crystal mine in I use my lightsaber as a battery..."
"..."
It sounds like something Howard would do. David is glad that Howard just wanted to use the crystal ore as a battery for the lightsaber, not other strange things, otherwise he would not be able to look directly at this kind of energy that can be used as an energy source. , It can also be used as weapon strengthening materials, or even as the main raw material for making weapons.
"No matter what, we finally know how to use the energy in it." Howard felt that he could flex his muscles. He could design a series of equipment that uses crystal mines as energy, and bring Winter Village into a new era: "Rin Winter Village Chief Engineer, Howard Wolowitz, sounds good!"
"It's Cold Winter Town... If David wants to, he can directly change the name to Cold Winter City."
Everyone followed the sound and turned their heads to look, only to notice Edwin Van Cleef who was eating next to him with the child. Judging from the food placed in front of him, Van Cleef should have been sitting here for a while.
"Edwin."
"David."
The two nodded and greeted each other, and David greeted Edwin's daughter, Vanessa Van Cleef, and the little girl happily waved to David.
For Vanessa, she didn't know why her father took her to move, but when she came to Cold Winter Village, her father told her that she would not move again. The girl was very happy when she heard the news, so she felt sorry for Dai Wei, who saves her family from running around, is very fond of Wei, who warmly waves every time she sees her.
"Hello, David!"
"Hi, Vanessa."
After saying hello, David did not ignore Edwin Van Cleef's previous words. Although he didn't want to disturb the family time of his father and daughter, Edwin Van Cleef had already assumed the posture of "let's ask". He couldn't pretend he didn't see it either.
"The design plan for Cold Winter Town has come out?"
"It's just a sketch." Van Cleef took out a notebook from his arms: "I wanted to discuss it with you later, but since I met... you have nothing to do now, right?"
David glanced at Howard and the others next to him. These people were staring at the notebook in Van Cleef's hand with curiosity. It was obvious that they also wanted to see the construction plan of Cold Winter Town.
Moving from the bar to the empty long table next to it, Van Cleef opened the notebook in his hand and placed it on the table, and introduced his design to David who was standing beside him. As for the sketches drawn in the notebook... That was just a sketch, and only a rough outline could be seen.
"I plan to build the Winter Fortress here, which is the north of the current Winter Village, next to the current location of the village." Fortunately, everyone present has enough IQ. Following Edwin Van Cleef's explanation, You can already understand the various plans on this sketch: "Build the entire Winter City with the Winter Fortress as the core."
According to Van Cleef's plan, Winter Fortress is the core area of Winter City, a multifunctional fortress including the castle. In addition to being the residence, garden, and library of the lord, it also gathers functions such as the town hall of Winter City, various offices, summoning foreign guests, and holding meetings.
As a fortress, Winter Fortress also has a separate barracks inside for soldiers to garrison, and the associated facilities such as stables, blacksmith shops, and warehouses are all available.
"..."
Listening to Edwin Van Cleef's explanation, David felt that just this so-called Winter Fortress was more perfect than the Winter Town he wanted.
"Winter Fortress has complete drainage and sewage facilities to ensure that there will be no stagnant water in rainy days."
After roughly introducing the situation, Edwin Van Cleef looked at David and wanted to ask David for his opinion, but he felt that his design was already perfect. Once Winter Fortress was built, it would definitely be stronger than Stormwind Fortress. The perfect castle.
Because of his experience in building Stormwind City, if David can get the right materials, he can also ensure that Winter Fortress has a good defense against the invasion of mysterious forces.
As a result, Edwin Van Cleef was disturbed by the people next to him before he received David's appreciation.
"Have you considered water supply, heating, and power supply?" Howard looked at the scribbled drawings in Van Cleef's notes, trying to find the laying plan of these lines: "And how are the sewage pipes in the bathroom planned?"
"Have you considered the network line?" Shelton also interjected: "Even if there is no global network, there should be no problem with the local area network? I am going to set up a few servers."
"..." Edwin Van Cleef, who was a little dizzy after being bombarded by several people around him, found that the situation seemed to be completely different from what he thought. He found that he had ignored many problems.
He has actually seen running water, heating, etc., but he doesn't feel that these things conflict with his own design.
But when Howard, Leonard, and Sheldon, who gave him such a headache, kept pointing out various problems, he realized that his design concept seemed to be seriously behind and could not adapt to the situation of Cold Winter Village.
I asked carefully what happened to the tap water system? What about the power supply system? In addition, there is a 'sample' brought by Howard next to him, and when he understood that the power supply system is to expand that small thing countless times, and even cover the entire city, Van Cleef finally realized that he needed to learn a lot of new knowledge.
"It doesn't matter, anyway, the winter in Winter Village is very long, and there is enough time for you to do all kinds of preparations." David was not dissatisfied with Van Cleef's design, and the only flaws were the problems mentioned by Leonard and the others.
These problems are not due to Van Cleef's lack of ability, but his lack of understanding of new things, coupled with his eagerness to prove his ability in front of David, this is the reason for this situation.
This is nothing, with Van Cleef's ability, go back and learn some knowledge, learn new concepts, and soon be able to integrate those things and make a more perfect design.
"Sheldon, I'm afraid I will trouble you to teach me some new knowledge in the next period of time." Van Cleef glanced at Sheldon, who always pestered himself and asked him various headaches: "In return, I Will teach you how to be a real assassin."
"Really? Awesome!"
"Oh~ bad choice!" "This is really unwise." "I already have a premonition of what will happen next." Leonard, Howard, and Raj looked at Edwin Van Cleef, all It's like 'You're in big trouble! ’ expression.
Edwin Van Cleef knew that Sheldon was 'annoying', but he didn't take it too seriously. After setting up to teach Sheldon how to be a real assassin tomorrow and learn some 'modern knowledge' from him, Edwin Devin took her daughter and left.
"How many days do you think Sheldon can survive in front of Edwin Van Cleef?" Howard waited until the father and daughter walked out of the cafeteria, and immediately started the game: "I think one day at most."
"Three hours." Raj gave the new unit, and finally the two looked at Leonard together.
"That's the leader of the Defias Brotherhood, the final boss of Deadmines and Sheldon Cooper... Sheldon will definitely not survive half an hour."
Sheldon looked at these people unhappily, and when he was about to say something, he heard David reminding them: "No matter what, Edwin will not kill Sheldon. But as a A good assassin, Edwin should know how to use poison to teach Sheldon a lesson without actually hurting him."
Hearing David's words, the other three nodded in agreement after thinking for a few seconds.
