Chapter 879: Water Surface Gliding Device
"Commander, you're here." Helena greeted him with a smile.
She didn't care what it meant or what was just said. For her, being able to stand beside Qin Ge was enough. And now that she was Qin Ge's wedding ship, nothing else mattered.
"Well, sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." Qin Ge said with a smile.
"We didn't have to wait long. We just got here. Didn't the commander tell us the time before?" Helena said.
"That's good. So when you called me before, what did you want to give me? And why did you come to the swimming pool?" Qin Ge asked curiously.
Taiho, who was standing by, secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It seemed that his commander really didn't know why Helena had called him here, and had no intention of deceiving her.
"Actually, the commander can guess it. Didn't you propose to glide on the sea surface like us before? So we have been doing this recently. With the help of Nana-chan..."
When Helena was explaining to Qin Ge, she was suddenly interrupted by him, "Nana-chan? Who is Nana-chan?"
"Nana-chan is another Helena, doesn't the commander know?" Helena asked with some confusion.
Qin Ge turned his head to look at Helena, who was lying in the embers, and saw that she was still looking at him with a smile, but there was a hint of embarrassment in her smile.
"Nana-chan, haha, nice name, I'll remember it." Qin Ge said with a smile, "So the gift you mentioned before is the device that can glide on the water?"
"Yes." Helena nodded, opened her ship's suit space directly, and took out a pair of peculiarly shaped boots from it.
The boots are white in color, but there are blue stripes on the sides. There is also a very obvious bead on the ankle of the boots, which emits a bright blue light, making the whole pair of boots look very technological.
Qin Ge looked at the pair of boots and asked in surprise, "Are these boots the water gliding devices you mentioned?"
"Not only that, this is the most important device, there is also a control device." Helena then had something like a VR controller in her hand, "Commander, this is the controller for this water gliding device."
"Huh?" Qin Ge took the handle puzzledly and found three buttons on it, red, green and yellow, but apart from these three buttons, there was nothing else.
"How do I use this?"
Facing Qin Ge's doubts, Helena smiled and explained, "Commander, this control device is a sensing device. Considering that the commander is a human, he cannot use energy or consciousness to control the direction like us, so I made this.
The green button above is the start button. When this button is pressed, the two magic boxes on the boots will start to supply energy to the boots, allowing them to float on the water like the shoes on a ship.
The yellow button is the power button, which can adjust the speed. The maximum speed is set at 32 knots, but this button can only accelerate, not decelerate. The control is divided into single-click and long-press, just like a car, with a total of four gears. A single click increases one gear, and the highest fourth gear is 32 knots. Long-pressing can instantly increase to the highest gear, which is equivalent to keeping the accelerator on in automatic gear.
The red button is the deceleration stop button, which can slow down the speed. Its principle is similar to the power button, but it is completely opposite. If you click it once, you can reduce a gear. If you press it for a long time, it is equivalent to emergency braking, which can stop quickly. However, it is recommended not to use it at the highest speed, because such emergency braking is the most challenging to balance, and it is easy to fall on the sea. "
Qin Ge looked at the control device with great interest. "So now we have start and stop, acceleration and deceleration, so how do we control the direction?"
"Controlling your sense of direction is just like skiing. You need to adjust and control it yourself. That's why I chose the swimming pool as the first location. If it were on the sea, the commander might not be able to control it, but there is no such worry here in the swimming pool." Helena said.
Qin Ge suddenly realized, "So that's how it is. So this control system is mainly used to control the speed, and everything else is done by myself."
"It's like this. I got the inspiration for this from the commander skiing with us in the Northern Union. Skiing usually involves sliding from high to low, using the relatively small friction of the snow surface and the increasingly faster kinetic potential energy of sliding down from a high place to provide energy. So I think as long as we can solve the energy supply problem, everything will become simple." Helena said.
Qin Ge nodded. "So the core of this water gliding device is this pair of boots?"
"Yes, so Commander, come and try them on. These boots are designed according to the size of your feet, and the exterior is also sewn by Charybdis. I believe you will find them very comfortable to wear." Helena said as she placed the boots at Qin Ge's feet.
Qin Ge looked at the pair of white boots and nodded, then he stretched out his hand and said to Helena, "Then Helena, help me a little."
"good."
Helena had just answered when she saw Dafeng behind Qin Ge suddenly step to Qin Ge's side, leaning her whole body on him, and then supporting him.
"Commander, please leave this kind of work to me." Dafeng said with a smile, a look of success in her eyes.
Qin Ge was stunned, and couldn't help but shook his head with a smile, "It's all the same."
Helena took off the shoes on her feet, quickly squatted down, and helped Qin Ge put on the boots.
The process did not take much time. Charybdis knew everything about Qin Ge. The boots were made very comfortably and easy to wear.
Even when Qin Ge put his feet in place, the upper of the boots tightened automatically, reaching the most comfortable level. This attention to detail made Qin Ge even more eager to try the effect of gliding on the water.
"Okay, Commander, come and give it a try." Helena said to Qin Ge.
"Yeah." Qin Ge couldn't wait to come to the swimming pool. When he was about to enter the water, he suddenly turned his head to look at Helena, "Um, should I press the green button after entering the water, or should I press the green button before entering the water?"
Helena smiled and said, "Press the green button first, then go into the water. However, to be on the safe side, I will go into the water first, and the commander will come down slowly."
"Okay." Qin Ge nodded, and then he saw Helena step directly into the water. The ship uniform on her body did not appear, but the shoes on her feet had changed into the state of being in the sea.
He picked up the control device and pressed the green button. In an instant, the two beads on the boots lit up with a bright blue light, and a strange feeling rose from Qin Ge's body.
