The Sims Evolved from Goblins

Chapter 247 The Magic Cannon with Initial Results

"Wow, it worked!"

Seeing that the cannon did not explode, Li Meng excitedly shouted.

But the laughter stopped abruptly the next moment.

Although the cannon did not explode.

But a lot of cracks appeared on the cannon.

"Does the barrel need to be thickened?"

Li Meng looked at the cracked cannon in silence.

If the mass is too large, the strength of the airship will not be able to bear it.

"Master, what is the meaning of this thing?"

In Xiaobai's eyes, the things that the master worked hard to make can only be heard once.

"It is of great significance, Xiaobai, you also know that the combat effectiveness of goblins is garbage among garbage. In order to enhance the combat effectiveness of goblins, we must rely on the power of magic props. This is the weapon "Magic Cannon" I developed for goblins. It is not a finished product yet. You will know how powerful it is in the future."

Not exploding is already a good start.

The next thing to do is to further strengthen the strength of the cannon.

The only disadvantage is that it cannot be mass-produced.

The rune magic circle inside the barrel must be carved with a magic water jet.

That is to say, the magic cannon can only be made by Li Meng himself.

Even if the casting technology is greatly developed in the future.

The accuracy of engraving the rune magic circle in the barrel cannot be guaranteed.

Unless the barrel is made large enough to melt a person.

But such a large cannon is not something that the wooden hull structure can withstand.

"Come again!"

Standing up, Li Meng carried the magic cannon and walked in the direction he came from.

Soon the movement in the forest disappeared.

Returning to the Iron Cave, Li Meng continued to make new magic cannons.

On the other side, on the slipway outside the Throne Tribe.

The keel and main structure of a ship have taken shape.

Groping bit by bit, the progress is gradually accelerating.

"Did you hear it?"

"I heard it."

"What is the king doing?"

"Who knows!"

The thunderous explosion in the north sounded again.

This attracted the attention of the Hammer and his party.

This is the second time.

Tiechui had a premonition that there would be a third time.

Time passed by little by little, day after day.

One day half a month later, in the afternoon.

At the crater in the forest outside the iron cave.

The long-lost sound of "cracking" branches being broken appeared in the forest again.

After a while, Li Meng came out of the forest carrying a larger magic cannon.

This time the caliber of the magic cannon was larger and the thickness of the cannon body was thicker.

"Bang!"

Li Meng came to the crater and put the magic cannon heavily on the ground.

This time the caliber of the magic cannon reached 200 mm.

The cannon body was 4 meters long and the diameter of the cannon tail was 1.2 meters.

The diameter of the cannon body was 800 mm.

The diameter at the muzzle was 500 mm.

This time, Li Meng was followed by a group of big goblins.

Each of them held a heavy iron ball in his hand.

Li Meng squatted down and straightened the magic cannon.

Use a slope as a gun mount.

"Bring up the shells!"

The king's urging made a big goblin rush forward.

Li Meng took the shells from the big goblin.

The 200mm diameter shells were like a large marble in Li Meng's hands.

Li Meng stuffed the shells into the muzzle.

The sound of the shells rolling suddenly sounded in the barrel.

The sound disappeared only after it hit the bottom.

Li Meng took out a fire crystal from his waist and grinned.

"Wow, haha, fire!"

Li Meng laughed wildly and inserted the fire crystal into one of the three grooves.

The magic cannon has three gears.

The power is controlled by the input magic power.

The first gear has the smallest power and the shortest range.

The third gear has the largest power and the longest range.

"Bang!"

There was a deafening sound of artillery fire.

The bloated magic cannon shook violently.

A dazzling tongue of fire spewed out of the muzzle.

A stream of white smoke shot out and rushed into the forest in the blink of an eye.

"Swish!"

The forest was crackling and wood chips were flying.

A large tree on the outermost edge seemed to be hit by something.

The trunk was directly penetrated and the interception was broken.

The trees in a line were hit almost at the same time.

The "crackling" sound rushed into the depths of the forest.

Finally, the shell hit a large tree 700 meters away.

There was a "bang" and wood chips flew.

The place where it was hit was dented.

The deformed shell was stuck on it.

"Not bad, not bad, very good!"

Li Meng looked into the depths of the forest and was very satisfied with the power of the magic cannon.

"Master, the power is indeed good, but this weapon is not as lethal as it is difficult to make."

Li Meng knew what Xiaobai meant.

No matter how powerful the shell is, it can only attack enemies in a line.

The magic cannon on the battlefield needs a sufficient number to exert its terrifying combat power.

"Xiaobai, what if we engrave the Explosion Rune on the shell?"

As soon as the master said this, Xiaobai immediately understood what the master meant.

If a fire crystal is stuffed into the shell.

Then use the Explosion Rune magic circle to detonate the fire crystal.

The power of the explosion is huge.

"Master, your idea is right."

Li Meng grinned and continued to wave to his big brother Brin behind him.

Xiao Bai said that his idea was right, and Li Meng was completely relieved.

After all, magic cannons are based on Xiao Bai's rune knowledge.

Li Meng stuffed another shell into the barrel.

Magic cannons need to be tested again and again to test whether the strength of the barrel is qualified.

It must be tested how many times the barrel can withstand shooting.

If the number is too small, the strength of the barrel must be strengthened.

"Boom!"

Another thunderous artillery sound rang in the forest.

This is not the end.

A few minutes later, a roaring explosion sounded again in the depths of the forest.

The huge noises again and again attracted the attention of the barbarians on the dock.

They all looked sideways at the forest in the north.

That sound was so terrible that it made people's scalps numb.

What is the king doing?

The sound of artillery continued from the afternoon to the evening.

The sound of artillery fire in the forest did not stop until the full moon was high in the sky.

The next morning, the rumbling sound of artillery fire in the forest sounded again.

Once, twice, three times, four times, five times...

The sound of artillery fire continued until the afternoon.

"Is it the limit?"

Li Meng touched the tail of the gun.

The originally smooth tail of the gun was a little bit cut.

A closer look revealed that cracks had appeared in the tail of the gun.

A total of 175 rounds had been fired from yesterday afternoon to now.

In order to avoid overheating of the barrel, the interval between firings was sometimes long and sometimes short.

This was still the lowest power level.

If it was fired at mid-range or high-range, it would probably only fire a few dozen rounds before it was scrapped.

"It seems that the strength of the tail of the gun needs to be increased!"

The impact of the explosion of the explosive fireball is concentrated in the tail of the gun.

Because the strength requirement of the tail of the gun is the highest.
