Chapter 206: The Debut of the Alchemical Internal Combustion Engine
An alchemical internal combustion engine? What in the world was that?
The confusion was writ large across the faces of Albert and his companions.
Lynn, too, was taken aback; this was happening much faster than he had anticipated.
"Professor Philip and the others are getting ready for the first experiment. If we're late, we might miss it!" Lydia's voice was filled with excitement as she dashed over, sweat drenching her, cheeks flushed red like a ripe apple.
Lynn nodded with a smile, then turned to the group of wizards in the classroom. "Why not all of us go and take a look? This internal combustion engine uses hydrogen as its fuel!"
Albert and the others promptly rose and followed, a sizable group exiting the classroom in unison.
"Dean Lynn, what exactly is this alchemical internal combustion engine?" one of the male wizards curiously inquired. "Does it have anything to do with the Steam Engine of the Alchemical Association?"
"It's much, much more powerful than the steam engine..." Lydia proclaimed proudly, then added, fearing that they might not comprehend the extent, "At least ten times more powerful!"
While this was the first official experiment, they had tested this contraption before to see if it would function properly. The external gears spun rapidly, almost blurring her vision!
"Hurry, hurry!" Lydia kept urging, clearly not wanting to miss the debut of the internal combustion engine.New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
When they arrived at the alchemical workshop, a very tall and large carriage frame appeared before them.
Clearly repurposed from a carriage, its wooden sides had been removed, leaving only a chassis. Two extra wheels were added beneath the front section where camels and horses would be tethered.
Furthermore, there was a metal "box" atop the chassis, standing over a meter tall, firmly embedded in the rear half. With Lydia's explanation, Albert finally understood that this was the so-called alchemical internal combustion engine.
At this moment, the alchemists present were debating fiercely about who should drive this alchemical four-wheeler. Much like when Lydia piloted the airship into the sky, this was also destined to be a moment recorded in history.
"Alright, stop arguing. I think this opportunity should belong to Dean Lynn..." Philip interrupted the debate, looking solemnly at Lynn and the others walking over.
The alchemists present immediately fell silent.
Indeed, they could craft the alchemical internal combustion engine, but the crucial part was the blueprint provided by Lynn.
However, this sensation of soaring, like lightning, was utterly captivating. Philip not only had no intention of slowing down but even increased the magical output, eager to test the limits of this contraption...
The spinning wheels turned into streaks, leaving a long trail on the road.
The cylinder's tolerance quickly reached its limit, but preceding its failure was the gear!
At several hundred rotations per minute under the ultra-high speed, the gear meant for transferring kinetic energy at the rear wheel couldn't endure and snapped first.
Crack...
Initially, it was a slight muffled sound, then a chain reaction. The broken gear flew apart rapidly, causing the entire alchemical vehicle to lose control.
Philip was surprised to find himself airborne, spinning mid-air, then crashing onto the hard road, rolling several times before struggling to get up.
Everyone present was stunned, quickly rushing over to check on him.
"Lord Philip... Are you alright?"
"Professor, are you okay? Any injuries?"
With the help of everyone, Philip sat down laboriously.
Thanks to a last-minute cast of a "Mage Shield" for protection, although Philip looked disheveled, fortunately, he wasn't hurt. He kept murmuring to himself, "Too fast... Way too fast..."
