Create the Age of Magic

"Damn boy, engraving patterns on the barrel will do nothing, and it will blow up due to uneven heating!" Hampton said, spitting.

"Shut up, stupid baby, don't call me a kid. I'm older than your grandpa's grandpa's grandpa. Those are not patterns but magic circles, which can make the magic crystal cannon shoot magic bullets with greater power and farther distance!" Leonard slapped the table and yelled at Hampton.

"Even if it's a magic circle, it won't work. If the gun barrel is heated unevenly, you can't even release magic fireworks. It's powerful enough to blow up your own people. It's an old-fashioned thing." Hampton was not to be outdone, and even more violent went back.

The two quarreled like this, and all the magicians and craftsmen nearby avoided these two people. Both of them were the elders of the foundry tower, and they had a bad temper, and few people wanted to provoke them.

Hampton's bad temper is not surprising. He is a gunpowder pot himself, and he feels comfortable if he doesn't teach his apprentices a day.

But even though Leonard was also a stubborn donkey, he was quite a gentleman, he didn't drink, he didn't smoke, and he didn't say a word of swearing, but it was obvious that he had been assimilated by the old dwarf Hampton.

"It seems that I came at the wrong time." Horn asked a passing magician, "What are the two of them arguing about?"

"It's about the magic crystal cannon. I don't know how long it will be before the magic crystal cannon is completed. They are arguing about the barrel."

The magic crystal cannon is also a magical weapon that the council started to research after being inspired by the cannon in the Yarrow manpower field. Horn still has lingering fears about its powerful power.

After more than five years of research, I already have a basic framework, but it is only a framework. I am afraid that it will take a lot of time to complete the finished product.

The magic crystal cannon is different from ordinary combined spellcasting. Although it also requires powerful magic power, it requires ordinary people to operate it. It only needs a large amount of magic spar as energy to release it. Therefore, the magic should not be too complicated, but simple enough. It is so simple that even if there is no magician, just a wild witch can use it to exert powerful power, so in order to meet these requirements, the final choice is the magic missile.

The magic missile alone is very simple, but it is very difficult to achieve the power of the Yarrow force field cannon. After all, if it is just a simple magic missile release device, it is better to arrange two more archers on the city wall. Therefore, the research has not stopped in the past five years, and it still cannot be produced.

Horn did not interrupt the conversation of the two old men. For technicians like them, unexpected sparks may come up in every discussion, and inspiration may not be found even if it is interrupted. Maybe this time Discussion can make the launch of the magic crystal cannon a few days earlier, so Horn can wait.

The two of them discussed for half an hour before reaching a conclusion, and then Horn walked up to Leonard and said, "Artisan Leonard, do you have time, I have something I want to discuss with you. "

"Hey, Your Excellency Mem Hailin, when did you come here?" Leonard was taken aback. He was too engrossed in the discussion just now, and didn't notice Horn's existence at all.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, please come with me, I have two questions to ask you." Horn and Leonard found a secluded place in the Forge Tower.

Horn asked Leonard: "Mr. Leonard, the next question I'm going to ask is related to the elves. If you find it inconvenient to tell me, you don't need to force yourself to answer."

"You ask, hurry up and finish asking, I still have something to do." Leonard said impatiently, he needs to study a lot, Horn's attitude towards Leonard is very tolerant, because of their craft This is how people are at work, and Horn himself is like this when his research is at a critical point.

"May I ask if there have been any changes in the elves in recent years, such as becoming more urgent, etc., and are there any rumors about what will happen in a few hundred years." Horn asked Leonard with his words carefully, and he wanted to guarantee You can ask what you want to ask without touching the secrets of the elves.

Leonard stuffed the cigarette holders in his mouth as many times as he has been in the Magic Council for so many years, he has completely turned into an old smoker.

"I don't know much about these things. I don't pay much attention to these things, but in recent years, the elves have indeed become much more urgent than before. It's like the promotion of magic within the elves. It took ten or eight years for the Council of Elders to make a decision, but the Elf King directly made a decision on this matter, and the Council of Elders rarely interfered.

And in the past, no matter how talented you were as a human being, His Majesty would not pay attention to you until you really grew up, let alone make a deal with you and let us help you work. "

"Thank you, Mr. Leonard." After sending Leonard away, Horn fell into deep thought. The news he got from Leonard let him know that the elves should also know that after more than two hundred years, they What to face, so there is a high probability that Mortia is not lying.

Of course, even after so many confirmations, Horn only believed Mortia's words selectively, because lying seven points true and three points false is the most confusing. Horn only believed what he had confirmed. As for the others, he had to It depends on the situation.

In this case, Horn should find an opportunity to look at the method of extracting the seed of the world provided by Mortia, because Horn wants to get rid of the control of the world's will, and also wants to be strong enough.

But since he came to the Tower of Foundry, Horn didn't plan to go back directly. Enoch said that Garp had some interesting inventions, and he wanted to see what they were.

As a magician who is good at making magic props, Garp’s status in the Forge Tower has been rising year by year. Garp’s research on the technology of the Yarrow people is at the forefront. For example, he has a lot of credit for the success of the previous magic flying boat. .

He has a separate large laboratory, which is much larger than the mage tower of ordinary mages. When Horn came over, he saw many low-level mages and craftsmen running around here, and none of them took a break. Look here It looks very busy, and Karp's research seems to be a lot of tasks.

As soon as he entered the laboratory, Horn's eyes lit up because he saw two interesting things.

At the door of the laboratory, there are two human-shaped steel puppets. These two steel puppets are covered with rivets. They are sitting and wielding sledgehammers, and they are doing simple and repetitive tasks. Horn even found that they can respond to some accidents. react.

"Hehe, it's interesting." Horn touched his chin and said.
