Steel, Guns, and the Industrial Party that Traveled to Another World

Since the birth of wisdom, the species called human beings have had a strong yearning for the sky.

Throughout the long history, countless people have made arduous efforts to reach that deep blue area.

Birds that can fly freely in the sky have become the object of people's longing. According to legend, someone once made a pair of wings with wax. He successfully flew into the sky, but unfortunately because he was too close to the sun, the wax wings were melted by the sun and the man fell into the sea.

In real history, there has been no clear record to prove that anyone has actually flown into the sky. The blue area hanging high above seems to be a forbidden area for humans and a place that mortals cannot touch.

Because of this, the sky has an unparalleled symbolic meaning in human culture. In the eyes of some people, the sky is the residence of gods, and in the eyes of some people, the sky is a free field.

Therefore, when a hot air balloon carrying people and flying in the sky appears in front of everyone, the shock it brings is self-evident.

"That's a hot air balloon. It seems that their experiment was successful."

When Nathan heard Paul say this, his body was shocked. He turned his head and stared at his brother with a "fierce" look, as if he wanted to eat Paul.

"Hot air balloon? What is a hot air balloon? What experiment are you talking about?"

Obviously, Paul Graman knew the guy in the sky.

Paul was really shocked to see this guy who had always been silent suddenly act like this.

He explained: "Well, as you can see, it's the thing in the sky."

Marianna asked: "Did you make that so-called hot air balloon?"

"It was made by our researchers." Paul said, "I know you must be full of curiosity now. In fact, the principle of this thing is not complicated. Our researchers found that when air is heated, its volume will expand and its density will decrease. At this time, the surrounding cold air will give it an upward force, the so-called buoyancy, just like water can carry wood with a lower density than water, that is also buoyancy."

"Uh...you mean it is the same as the essence of a boat floating on the water?" The three of them looked like they understood.

"That's right!" Paul gave them a positive answer.

"We want to see it!" Several people asked in unison.

"Let's go!"

Paul turned his horse's head and led them to chase in the direction where the hot air balloon was floating. He also wanted to see it, and he was a little worried about the safety of the experimenters.

Together with Paul's guards, a group of people galloped on horseback. After chasing for several miles, the hot air balloon in the air finally began to slowly descend in altitude and finally landed on the ground in an open area.

Today's weather is very clear. The hot air balloon drifted all the way and was easy to be witnessed, especially near the landing point. Many people were attracted by this UFO, and some even shouted that a miracle had come, treating the people in the basket as angels who had descended to earth.

When Paul and his party arrived, the experimenter who had just come out of the basket was struggling to explain to the onlookers.

Seeing the arrival of a group of people under the banner of the lord, the crowd consciously made way for a passage.

Paul led Catherine and others to approach the hot air balloon. Seeing that there seemed to be no accident, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He recognized the person in charge of the experimental team, "Aubrey! Thank God you are all fine."

"Ah, it's Lord Graman!" Aubrey and the other two assistants bowed and saluted.

"I'm sorry, sir, it's seen by so many people, it seems that it will be made public!"

Paul waved his hand, "It's okay, it's not a confidential project, this thing will be known to people sooner or later." He put on a stern face, "But I still want to criticize you, this is too risky, maybe you should use a rope to fix it, and experiment in a controllable scene, instead of drifting with the wind like this."

Aubrey hurriedly explained, "We did the experiment you mentioned, so we thought about further testing. The experiment verified the previous theory that there are indeed wind layers in different directions at different altitudes. We can use this to adjust the flight direction."

Paul gave them a thumbs up, "In this case, congratulations, this will be an important step for hot air balloons to become practical."

While he was talking to the experimenters, Catherine, Marianna and Nathan circled the hot air balloon again and again driven by curiosity, and marveled.

When observed at a close distance, the flying object is much larger than expected, especially the airbag, which is really big. It is obviously made of multiple pieces of linen, and there is a layer of paper on the surface. It is shaped like an inverted pear, and the dragon emblem of the Graman family is painted in bright colors.

The hanging basket below is woven with rattan, which looks strong and light. It should be able to accommodate four to six passengers.

There is a black thing above the basket, which seems to be smoked. Maybe it is used to heat the air in the airbag?

Catherine immediately realized that hot air balloons play an important role in war-if you take it to the sky, wouldn’t the enemy’s position and military deployment be visible at a glance?

And Nathan is eager to try, "I... Can I try it?"

Paul asked: "Aren’t you afraid?"

"Come on, this is flying to the sky! I want to be... the first one of our kind to fly to the sky!" He was a little impatient.

Paul looked at Aubrey: "Is it safe?"

Marianna stepped forward first, "Even if an accident happens, I have a way to get everyone to the ground safely."

A perfect song, a post, a content, a 6-9 book, a bar, and a look!

"You want to go up too?"

"Of course!"

So, Aubrey's two assistants were replaced by Nathan and Marianna.

Nathan stepped into the basket of the hot air balloon carefully, his heart pounding like a drum, and his palms sweating slightly.

"Everyone, pay attention, we are about to start!" Aubrey reminded the passengers loudly.

With the sound of the flame burning, the heated air filled the airbag, and not long after, the basket suddenly trembled slightly.

The crowd around made a huge noise, and the hot air balloon slowly rose into the air under the attention of the crowd. The noise soon turned into warm cheers, and people were extremely excited about the living miracle before their eyes.

Nathan felt as if he had lost weight under his feet, and then realized that the earth was gradually moving away, and the houses and trees below were shrunk into tiny models.

Higher and higher! Nathan's heart was pounding.

The wind gently brushed across his face, bringing a hint of coolness, but it could not cool down his inner excitement.

He held the edge of the basket tightly, his eyes greedily scanning the surroundings - the boundless horizon spread out before his eyes, the clouds were so close that they seemed to be within reach, and the sun shone on the vast fields, coating them with a layer of golden brilliance.

The hot air balloon floated steadily in the air, and the world became so quiet, with only the occasional eruption of the flame breaking the silence.

Nathan took a deep breath and felt an unprecedented freedom and tranquility, as if he had become part of the sky.

"This is the real flying, it is simply a kind of magnificence beyond the world!" He praised in his heart.
