Chapter 1056: The Giant of the Northern Continent! Civilization Flame Lv9!

"First, build a transverse magic train track across the Yongye Empire, connecting it to our Friendship City's magic train track; this will also facilitate east-west trade."

In the capital of the Flame Empire, the fox woman Sister Qing Ling gathered with several holy maidens to discuss the Yongye Empire's development plan.

The Yongye Empire has in fact been incorporated into the Flame Empire.

However, Sister Qing Ling has temporarily retained her former title, to help these holy maidens understand.

"Also, Lodi, expand the airship production lines further—our territory is now so vast, we must increase the number of airships."

Sister Qing Ling said this to the cat woman Lodi.

Lodi now serves as the overall head of the Flame Empire's R&D center.

She invented numerous practical tools and devices for the Flame Empire.

The Flame Empire is not developing along the lines of the world Lin Yan came from.

After all, this is a world where magical power reigns supreme; many technologies from other worlds are unsuitable here.

Especially technologies with heavy pollution—here, they are entirely unnecessary, as better, more wondrous alternatives exist.

For example, magic trains are already faster and safer than steam trains, carry more cargo, and produce zero pollution.

Lodi said: "We currently have over a hundred airship production lines, capable of producing more than four hundred airships per month, Your Majesty—should we expand further?"

Sister Qing Ling nodded and said: "Yes, Lodi. The troop transport airship lines are sufficient; focus on expanding freight and small airship lines, especially small airships—expand the production lines to over five hundred."

Five hundred!

The small airship production lines would need to expand several times over!

Lodi finally understood Sister Qing Ling's grand scale!

For the current Flame Empire, fully expanding airship production is entirely necessary.

Lodi nodded and said: "Understood, Your Majesty!"

Each small airship production line can produce six small airships per month; five hundred lines can produce three thousand small airships per month!

Once production capacity increases, the Flame Empire's airship fleet will swell further, truly turning the Flame Empire into a "nation on airships."

And airships are far safer than airplanes.

Their principle is entirely different from airplanes, and far more convenient.

Airships fear no storms, no cumulonimbus clouds, not even lightning.

As long as the hull remains intact and the magic runes undamaged, nothing will go wrong.

Even if the sails are destroyed, it doesn't matter.

Because the magic runes on the hull are the key to an airship's ability to float in the air.

The sails serve as propulsion.

These are two separate systems.

Moreover, most airships have magical protections; ordinary natural disasters rarely cause damage.

Also, operating airships is simple—the onboard magic arrays automatically handle flight; even when the sky is filled with airships, collisions are unlikely.

This is the magical world!

However, airships are still expensive.

Only nobles and some wealthy merchants can afford them; ordinary commoners still find them unattainable.

Thus, magic trains remain highly useful.

Sister Qing Ling plans to first construct one horizontal and one vertical magic train track within the Yongye Empire.

The Yongye Empire is too vast—even if all four former empires' experts were used to blast mountains, build bridges, and fill ravines, it would take considerable time.

But Sister Qing Ling directly conscripted portions of noble militias and armies to build roads and bridges.

Only the military has large numbers of Gao Jie warriors!

Using Gao Jie warriors to build roads would be unthinkable in other empires.

But the Flame Empire has always done it this way.
