My Magic Age
Chapter 1240 44. Testing the Arrow
There are a total of seventeen lords who are qualified to have afternoon tea with Prince James at the Lakeside Manor. These lords all have some private armed forces in their hands. Many of them have more than one order of construct knights under their command. They are in the plane owns large tracts of land.
After the plane war broke out, they led the knights to the imperial capital to look for opportunities to fight.
Last year, Prince of Wales led the Royal Constructed Knights to fight a beautiful battle of annihilation on the Kempato River in the Warsaw plane. Many lords expressed their willingness to join the expedition through various relationships and channels. Army ranks.
Later, Prince Wells led the Royal Constructed Knights to participate in the battle in the Wala Valley of the Kenda plane and won the victory, making him and the Mo family eldest son the two youngest generals of the Green Empire. At this time, those who wanted to follow Wei The lords of various planes who joined Prince Ers on the expedition sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain.
It was only after Prince Wells returned to the Imperial Capital from the Kenda plane that the Imperial Capital remained silent for nearly three months. It was not until the ice and snow on the top of Mazzaro began to melt that there was a surprise attack that shocked the entire Imperial Capital. , the only lords who still firmly believe that the Prince of Wales can bring victory are the ones sitting in front of me.
This time, Prince James publicly stated that he and Prince of Wales would join the expedition to the Loch Plane. For these noble lords, it proved how correct the persistence of these three months was.
After the afternoon tea, a dozen lords took the opportunity to surround me and pulled me to discuss the magic crossbow.
In desperation, I had to borrow Le Die's training ground and brought these lords there.
I placed four giant crossbow arrows with exquisite magic patterns side by side on the long wooden table in the training ground. They were ordinary giant crossbow arrows with no attributes, magic arrows with the 'sharp' attribute, and 'penetrating' arrows. Magic arrows with 'property', magic arrows with dual properties of 'sharp' and 'penetrating'.
The arrows of the ordinary non-attributed crossbow had no gem base and no magic crystal fragments. The last three arrowheads were inlaid with magic crystal fragments, exuding a faint magical halo in the sunlight.
Placed in front of the lords were four giant crossbow arrows with identical patterns, which made them a little confused.
In fact, it is impossible to tell the difference between these four giant crossbow arrows just from their appearance. If it were not for the magic aura flowing from the magic lines, it would be impossible to tell which one is the real magic crossbow arrow.
Marquis Haslab almost put his face on those giant crossbow arrows and asked curiously: "Are these magic crossbow arrows?"
He had talked to me a few words while drinking afternoon tea before. I knew that this was a lord from Corgi. I said to him: "Yes, these are the four giants I currently provide to the South Wind Legion." Sample of crossbow arrowhead.”
A tall and slender lord reached out and took one of the giant crossbow arrows with sharp attributes in his hand. He stretched out a thumb to gently scrape the blade edge to identify whether the giant crossbow arrow was sharp, but he One thing he overlooked was that the magic attribute of the arrow of this giant crossbow was sharpness. When his thumb passed across the edge of the blade, a trace of bright red blood dripped down his finger.
He screamed in surprise; "Ah! Such a sharp arrow actually cut my hand!"
I took the giant crossbow arrow from his hand, and the arrow became heavy in my hand. I used the "hydrotherapy technique" on him. The instant pain made his face wrinkle together, and then the finger The bleeding was stopped, and the wound continued to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.
I said to the lords: "This crossbow arrow has a sharp magical effect. It can easily cut a wound on the enemy's body, even if his skin is as tough as rhinoceros skin."
The expressions of these lords became serious after listening to my introduction.
The tall and slender lord took the giant crossbow arrow in his hand again and praised: "These patterns make these giant crossbow arrows look a bit higher. I heard that this kind of magic arrow can shoot through the cavalry." "Heavy armor?"
I picked up the third giant crossbow arrow on the table and said to the lord: "This is the giant crossbow arrow that can penetrate the black iron armor of the heavy cavalry. The arrow on this giant crossbow has the word 'pierce through'." Through the magic effect, it can pierce the spider warrior's own insect armor."
Another lord came over to comment and said: "This arrow looks like it has the style of the elven world, with complicated magic patterns covering the entire arrow. So what does the last magic crossbow arrow have compared to these two giant crossbow arrows?" The difference?"
I said to these lords: "Except for the four giant crossbow arrows on the table, which are ordinary arrows without attributes, the other three arrows all have the power of magic. These two are single-attribute magic arrows. This one It has the magic effect of 'sharpness', this one has the magic effect of 'penetration', and the last one combines the two previous arrows into one, and has both the magic properties of 'sharpness' and 'penetration'."
Marquis Haslab rubbed his eyes vigorously and said to me: "You can't tell the difference between these four giant crossbow arrows from the surface!"
"There are still some differences, such as the magical breath..." I showed the gem base on the back of the giant crossbow arrow to these lords. The gem groove of the 'sharp' arrow is on the left side of the edge of the giant crossbow arrow, while the 'penetrating' arrow 'The gem groove of the arrow is on the right side of the giant crossbow arrow. As for the dual-attribute giant crossbow arrow, there are gem grooves on the left and right sides.
"Everyone, please wait a moment."
After that, I walked into the storage room on the left side of the training ground, then opened the portal and walked in. I first went to the blacksmith workshop and asked the two dwarf female craftsmen inside to make a set of Naqma black iron. The armor was carried to the teleportation altar, and then an unmodified bed crossbow was carried over by the good orc warriors guarding the teleportation altar.
By the time the two orc warriors carried these two bulky things into the storage room of the training ground, Ledie who was waiting outside was already a little impatient. She pushed open the wooden door of the storage room, and I just happened to lift it. The portal was closed, and she immediately saw the two big guys in the storage room. Then she stared at the two-meter-tall thick black iron armor in surprise, and asked me: "You ran to The storage room is just for preparing these two big guys?"
I nodded and said, "I plan to show them how sharp those magic crossbow arrows are."
Then I ran to the door of the storage room, called Catalina and the maid who were guarding outside, and asked them to help me carry these heavy guys to the training ground.
"Wait a minute, I'll call the attendant over." Ledie stood behind and said to me.
After saying that, he walked out of the storage room and stood on the training ground waving to the two attendants standing far away. When the attendants saw Princess Ledie waving to them, they quickly put down what they were doing and rushed to Princess Ledie. , Le Die asked the two attendants to move the Naqma black iron armor and the bed crossbow without a base to the training ground.
The lords waiting on the training ground saw me bringing in a crossbow, and seeing me putting a black iron armor of the Naqma people on the wooden man who was practicing charging on the training ground, they all joined in with great interest. Come over here and see how I attach this bed crossbow without a base.
"There should be a good bed crossbow in the warehouse over at the Logistics Department. How about I take someone to push one over?" The middle-aged housekeeper hurried over with two attendants and saw me preparing to fix the bed crossbow at the side of the training ground. The bed crossbow without a base suggested to me.
"Don't bother me!" I said to the middle-aged housekeeper.
After saying that, I stretched out my hand to draw a magic circle on my chest, and a base made of water appeared in front of me. I shouted softly: "Ningbing."
The transparent water base was instantly filled with ice mist, condensing into an ice sculpture-like bed crossbow base. I asked the middle-aged housekeeper and several attendants to place the bed crossbow on the base. The simple temporary turret-style bed crossbow was just a trial. After the installation was successful, I took out three three-meter-long wooden arrow shafts, and Catalina helped me install the three magic crossbow arrows on the arrow shafts.
Marquis Hasrabo clicked his tongue and asked me, "Count Jijia, are the arrow shafts of the crossbows you usually use made of ironwood?"
I nodded and said to him: "Yes, is there any problem? Marquis Haslabh."
"Uh... Count Jijia, don't you have a lumber mill rich in ironwood at home?" After seeing these three giant crossbow arrow shafts, Count Hasrabo's face became a little ugly. Let me confirm this. Arrow shafts are all made of ironwood, so he asked me again casually.
Without raising my head, I said to him: "Yes, there happens to be a valley in one of my territories where a lot of ironwood grows."
Marquis Haslab stood next to me, stretched out his hand to touch the wood grain on the arrow shaft, and couldn't help but said: "With all due respect, iron and wood arrow shafts are good, but the cost of making an arrow shaft is higher than the Arrow shafts made of magic black iron steel pipes are several times more expensive. These arrow shafts are simply too expensive. Every time a crossbow arrow with an ironwood shaft is shot, it is equivalent to throwing out a yellow-orange gold coin. , how many gold coins will be burned after a battle!"
"Is the arrow shaft used in your bed crossbow made of black iron pipe?" An idea flashed in my mind, and I couldn't help but ask Marquis Haslab.
"In fact, most giant crossbow arrow shafts are made of ordinary steel pipes. This kind of steel pipes can be purchased in many blacksmith workshops. The steel pipes mixed with magic black iron can only be produced by the North Duisburg Blacksmith Workshop in the imperial capital. You can buy it." Marquis Haslab's tone was so matter-of-fact.
I have always been accustomed to thinking that giant crossbow arrow shafts must be made of wood. The main reason why I had this illusion was that when I was in the Trum stronghold on the plane of Hierro, a large number of crossbow arrow shafts were stored in the entire stronghold. Stacks, those bed crossbow arrow shafts are all made of wood, and now Recall that the reason why the Grand Duke of Samoyed let his army use giant wooden crossbow shafts was because they used local materials. At that time, he owned a vast land in the northern part of the Black Forest. This Black Forest was rich in red pine and oak, so the Duke of Samoyed Then hundreds of thousands of wooden giant crossbow arrow shafts were stored in the Trum stronghold.
It was this wrong judgment that kept a subconscious thought in my mind, that is, the shaft of the giant crossbow was made of wood.
After I owned five hundred bed crossbows, because I upgraded the giant crossbow arrows to magic crossbow arrows, ordinary wooden arrow shafts could not withstand the impact of the magic crossbow arrows. On the battlefield in the north, those giant crossbow arrows often After repeated use three or two times, the magic arrows did not suffer much damage, but the wooden arrow shafts were shattered by the huge impact, so I later replaced the arrow shafts of all dual-attribute giant crossbow arrows with iron wood ones.
This time I took Ying Li and Le Die to hunt the spider-man warlords in the Hierro plane. These magic crossbows made of ironwood played a huge role. I originally planned to let the Hierro indigenous men in the underground warehouse of Xinliu Valley To process another 10,000 iron and wood giant crossbow shafts, I didn’t expect that Marquis Haslab’s One sentence reminded me that those giant crossbow arrow shafts can obviously be made of stronger steel pipes or black iron alloy pipes. In this case, I can also engrave the third magic pattern array on these black iron arrow shafts. I even thought in the next second I have already thought about what kind of magic circle to engrave on the arrow shaft.
If the wind magic pattern called the 'power of wind' is engraved on the shaft of the giant crossbow, it should be able to increase the range of the bed crossbow by at least one-third.
"Count Jijia, what's wrong with you?" Seeing me stunned for a long time, Marquis Haslab asked me with concern on his face.
Maybe he was worried that he would offend me and not be able to leave the gate of Riverside Manor...
I came back to my senses and quickly said to him: "Uh..., it's nothing, I just suddenly remembered something. Haha, Marquis Haslabh, you are so right. I really shouldn't do it because there is a seat in my house." The valley is full of ironwood, so use ironwood to make giant crossbow arrow shafts. I should go to Duisburg in the north to customize black iron arrow shafts!”
Marquis Haslab took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to me with a wry smile: "I didn't tell you to use black iron arrow shafts! In fact, I think those Steel arrow shafts are good enough."
It seems that Marquis Haslab has always kept his thinking at the level of ordinary giant crossbows, and is completely unaware of the cost of a magic crossbow.
So I hurriedly said to him: "Oh, I really want to thank you for reminding me."
Marquis Haslab laughed and said half-jokingly: "There is no need to thank you, but I hope you can give me the same purchase price as the South Wind Legion for those giant crossbow arrows."
I didn't hesitate at all and said to him directly: "Of course that's no problem. Not only that, if you buy ordinary giant crossbow arrows with no attributes from me, I can give you a five percent discount on the original price... …”
Hearing what I said, Marquis Haslabh was even more happy.
Then, I installed three magic crossbow arrows in the arrow slots of the bed crossbow one after another, showing them what kind of power the magic crossbow arrows have.
Perhaps magicians have made magic crossbows before, but because of the high cost, they have not been widely used in the army.
The wooden man was about five or six hundred meters away from the bed crossbow. In order to accurately shoot the wooden man, I decided to operate the bed crossbow myself.
I aimed the bed crossbow at the wooden man's head and adjusted the pitch angle with great effort. When a structural line in my eyes coincided with the arrow of the giant crossbow, I decisively triggered the trigger, and the first giant crossbow arrow with the 'sharp' magic attribute shot through. The black iron helmet on the wooden man's head was instantly knocked away, and the black iron mask was easily pierced by the giant crossbow arrow.
There was applause from all around.
Immediately afterwards, the second giant crossbow arrow with the magic attribute of 'penetration' shot through the chest of the Naqma people's black iron armor. Half of the entire crossbow arrow was inserted into the thick black iron armor, and the entire arrow body of the giant crossbow shot out. A buzzing tremor.
The lords standing aside were in an uproar.
I shot the third dual-attribute crossbow arrow into the belly of the Naqma black iron armor. The giant crossbow arrow penetrated the entire Naqma black iron armor with a sharp sound, and the giant crossbow flew back again. It was more than fifty meters before it was inserted into the solid ground of the training ground.
Marquis Hasrabo and a group of lords froze on the spot. There was silence all around for a while, and even the slightest breathing could not be heard...
