Balls of fire suddenly burst out, and the small mountain that was originally standing on the horizon, hundreds of meters high, collapsed from the middle with a loud bang.
Countless pieces of rock mixed in the soil, and the trees and grass on the hill tumbled down. The rumbling sound spread in all directions, and even Xu Yi, who was two kilometers away, felt his ears ringing.
Looking at the hill that had collapsed in the blink of an eye, Xu Yi couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He felt a little strange.
Before this, something that could cause such great destruction in Sines would at least be a powerful Forbidden Spell.
But now, this was something that could be done by any engineering team, and there was no need to use mages at all.
The development of the magic machine industry had indeed achieved great results, but through scientific research on magic, the Forbidden Spells that were once unattainable in the past had become common goods that could be used at will. It wasn't rare at all.
Therefore, the destructive power it brought would only make the Mages of the past speechless.
It was also because of this that in the past few years, there were voices that opposed the New Flyer in Sines.
The people who opposed the New Flyer said that Xu Yi wanted all Sines to maintain peace and stability and focus on development, but at the same time, he was vigorously researching magic. Instead, he was releasing the hidden power of magic and bringing more instability to the world. It was like slapping his own face.
Xu Yi snorted at these words.
Could it be that the world was peaceful before the New Flyer carried out scientific research on magic?
In the end, no matter how powerful one's power was, whether it was good or bad depended on the person who wielded it. It had nothing to do with the power itself.
And through the scientific research on magic, the New Flyer had brought about all sorts of new magic technologies and related applications, which had brought many benefits to the Sines.
Take the project that was currently in progress as an example.
In the past, it was almost impossible to build a road that could traverse the entire mountain range in Sines.
Even if the mountain range was less than a hundred meters tall and wasn't very majestic, it was still an insurmountable moat for the backward Sines.
But now, with the appearance of the New Flyer, they could directly use modified Fire Magic and Earth Magic to blast a huge hole in the mountain range and open up a path.
After the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce's engineering team moved away the debris left behind by the explosion, they could use Earth Magic to reinforce the mountain range on both sides. Then, they could directly build a road that connected the two sides of the mountain range.
Once the road that connected the north and south of the Kuranyin Kingdom was completed, it would greatly improve the Kuranyin Kingdom's traffic and allow the north and south to quickly connect.
In the past, the Kuranyin Kingdom wouldn't even have dared to think of such a thing.
But when the Frestech Chamber of Commerce came, it only took them two to three months to solve the problem that had troubled countless people of the Kuranyi Kingdom for thousands of years.
This was the benefit of scientific research on magic, and it was also the full display of this new magic power.
Of course, the people of the Sines couldn't be blamed for not understanding this new thing and even resisting it.
Even Xu Yi who had transmigrated from the technologically advanced earth felt that this scene was very strange every time he saw it.
In the beginning, when Xu Yi was doing research on magic machines, he only defined magic as a new energy attack method and directly applied it to the mechanical knowledge he had on Earth to develop all kinds of magic machines.
This type of magic machine was essentially a variant of the various industrial machines on Earth, except that the power source was provided by magic.
But as the research on magic machines deepened, especially after Xu Yi proposed the new concept of "magic science" ten years ago, the research on magic in the Sines had exploded in the past ten years. There were countless extremely special magic technologies that Xu Yi didn't even think of, which caught him off guard.
Using the mountain road construction project in front of him as an example.
If it was on Earth, there would be two methods for this project. One would be to build a road around the mountain and slowly go around it. This method would require less investment.
The other would be to directly go through the mountain and build a tunnel through it.
Compared to the first method, this method required more investment, but after it was completed, it could save a lot of travel time and was undoubtedly more outstanding.
However, Xu Yi's final judgment based on the results of his research in the Sines was to directly blow up the mountain and save the effort of digging a tunnel.
Compared to the two methods on Earth, this method was simple and crude, and the investment was very low.
Because of the uniqueness of magic, the speed of this project was much faster, and the entire project was expected to only take a month to complete.
If it was on Earth, the estimated time for this project would be at least two years.
Every time he thought of this fact, Xu Yi felt extremely strange.
Ever since he transmigrated to this world, Xu Yi's impression of the Sines had always been that their level of civilization was much lower than Earth's, and their level of technology was also worlds apart. In short, they were extremely backward.
However, as the scientific research on magic deepened, Sines, which was very special compared to Earth's magic, began to show that it was different from Earth's technology, but in many ways, it was superior.
Xu Yi was very surprised at first, but after seeing more and more, he began to think about the specific reasons.
Just using the reason that "magic is magical" as an explanation was not the attitude that a senior mechanical engineer should have as a top scientist should have.
After a long period of observation, Xu Yi finally came to a conclusion.
In reality, magic and the technology on Earth were not fundamentally different, because at the end of the day, they were just the use of energy.
Compared to Earth, which had only been developed for a few thousand years, and modern technology only had a short two hundred years of history, the people of Sines could trace back to tens of thousands of years of research on magic.
Even the humans who now controlled the entire Sines had ruled the continent for nearly three thousand years after the racial war, and their research on magic had not stopped for even a moment.
After accumulating for a long time, even if the Sines Continent didn't have a complete system for studying magic because of various reasons, they had already reached the point of perfection in studying and using various kinds of magic, reaching an extremely deep and profound level.
But before this, the people of Sines had only used magic as a weapon due to their backward views.
Occasionally, there would be magicians who wanted to use magic for other purposes, but because there was no complete system, they could not achieve any concrete results and eventually disappeared.
Until the arrival of Xu Yi, with the systematic scientific knowledge he had obtained on Earth, as well as the exceptionally complete and advanced mechanical theory, he was able to combine magic and science, and develop useful magic machines.
As the magic machines developed by the Frestech Chamber of Commerce gradually displayed their abilities, the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's influence on the Sines Continent became bigger and bigger. The people of the Sines Continent were gradually able to see the benefits that magic machines could bring in other places.
Thus, in these ten years, under the purposeful guidance of Xu Yi and New Flyer, the Sines carried out a comprehensive research on magic from a different angle, and naturally, they easily obtained incomparably large amounts of new results.
But these results did not come out of nowhere. It was just that the accumulation of magic research in Sines over the past ten thousand years was now brought out from a different direction by Xu Yi.
To put it simply, the magicians of Sines already had this kind of ability a long time ago, it was just that they completely went down the wrong path.
In just ten years, Sines almost caught up with the technology on Earth in many aspects, and even surpassed the technology on Earth in a few areas.
This made Xu Yi very surprised.
He originally thought that the development of technology would take a long time, so he was afraid that he would never be able to see Sines catch up with Earth's technology in his lifetime. Then, he would only be able to go to space as a dream that would never be realized.
But now, from the looks of the situation, with the explosive speed of technological development in Sines, he might actually be able to achieve his dream in his lifetime.
"Chairman Xu, it looks like the progress is going well. You should be able to rest assured."
Standing next to Xu Yi, the deputy director of the engineering department of the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce, Djorkaeff, who was in charge of this project, put down the telescope in his hand and smiled at Xu Yi.
Xu Yi collected his thoughts, laughed, and shook his head, "I've never been worried about a project that the Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce is in charge of."
After a pause, he straightened his face and continued, "Of course, this road is related to the development plan of the entire Kuranyi Kingdom. There can't be any mistakes, so I hope you can pay more attention to it."
Djorkaeff nodded, "Of course, of course.
This is a project that Chairman Xu personally handed down. The Amsterdam Chamber of Commerce will naturally do our best and not dare to be careless. "
Xu Yi nodded and turned his gaze to the southwest.
Once this road was completed, it would not only connect the north and south of the Kuranyi Kingdom, but it would also extend all the way to the southwest. Eventually, it would connect several countries in the central part of Sines with the territory that was annexed by the Duchy of Wales and originally belonged to the Kingdom of Drow. It would be integrated into the road network in the central part of the continent.
This way, the eastern part of the continent could be truly connected to the central and western parts of the continent, which was crucial to the development of the entire eastern part of the continent.
However ….. Even if it was the Sines Continent with the explosion of technology, to pave a road that was over three thousand kilometers across the Sines Continent in a short period of time, it wasn't something that could be done in just a year or two.
And developing the Kuranyi Kingdom would also take a lot of time.
