Knight of the Light

Zhou Qingfeng attacked Broken Bridge City before. Although he returned home after victory, the horses suffered a lot of damage. When he came back, he figured out that he would replace the hard-to-serve delicate horses with mechanized power.

Not much demand, simple, durable, and cheap.

Alsie struggled for half a year to get a prototype spider-shaped structure.

The conditions of the alien roads are poor, and the eight legs of the spider structure must be stronger than the horses in the wilderness. But it doesn't run fast enough, and defense is basically streaking.

In order to reduce the cost and facilitate mass production, Alsie removed the core magic circle with permanent enchantment of the construct. In order to provide power, she also invented a magic steam engine that looks strange.

The steam engine is actually a machine that boils water, but the rider can't add coal to the boiler endlessly. It just happens that Zhou Qingfeng’s altar of faith can provide a lot of magic gems, just choose one that can be heated as fuel.

The small boiler of the steam engine and the crankshaft of the cylinder were brought by Zhou Qingfeng from the real world. After assembly, they became a white smoke.

Install it on the spider structure to act as a motive force, and successfully reduce the cost of the whole machine to 5,000 gold coins. In comparison, the price of a heavy horse is two hundred gold coins, and the price of a horse is fifty gold coins.

"It's still too expensive. It would be nice if each unit cost a thousand gold coins."

Zhou Qingfeng rode a construction spider at night to test in Fuqiang collar, buttocks were hurt. "This thing is ugly, and its reliability is poor. I ran a lap and it broke twice."

The magic steam engine is too large, so that the center of gravity of the spider is very high, and it is very easy to roll over when running. In addition, this machine is still immature, and it is broken from time to time. It needs to be adjusted well.

Alsie grunted twice about her master's complaint, only when she didn't hear it. She and Sofia worked together to figure out how to improve and create an object that had never been seen before, which was extremely fun for Mo Ji.

Zhou Qingfeng stepped down from the construction spider and rubbed his buttocks, and specifically ordered Alsie to improve the suspension system.

"Dying Shadow" probed from the side and said: "Great master, noble and wise monarch like you, why bother with this kind of thing? As long as I am there, I guarantee you to gallop on the battlefield and be brave and invincible."

Zhou Qingfeng glanced, "Today this fart is too stiff, not at all comfortable."

"Is it?" "Dying Shadow" fell into self-doubt. "This is what I just watched the master test the greatness of the spider, and I created it temporarily."

"You can shut up." Zhou Qingfeng knew how embarrassed he had just rode that broken spider, as if a seizure had occurred.

"Okay, master." "Jiying" lowered his head.

Leaving the maid in the laboratory to improve the construction of the spider, Zhou Qingfeng went out and moved to another secret area of ​​Fuqiang to move to the No. 4 artisan area of ​​Harmony Village, and added a lot of equipment.

Coldwind City has always faced strong survival pressure, and the previous battle with Banshee Castle was very unsatisfactory. Zhou Qingfeng dragged his opponent into the "swamp" by a different mode of warfare, and this eliminated the war.

Considering afterwards, we must reflect on our own ability to fight in regular wars. Is it appropriate to continue to use cold weapons?

The rock battalion of the Infantry Regiment of the Cold Wind City continued to follow the path of heavy infantry, but after the expansion, the other two battalions simply lost their lances and heavy armor, because Zhou Qingfeng’s manufacturing industry has touched the edge of the hot weapon and skipped the fire rope. Flintlock.

The barrel and the fuselage mechanism can be said to weigh about one or two kilograms, and can bring two or thirty sets from the real world every day. This happens to strengthen confidentiality.

The buttstock is made of wood and can be processed by simple machine tools. The craftsmen in the'District No. 4'can already assemble all the components firmly.

The key is gunpowder, the chemistry of the outside world is somewhat different from reality. The pyrotechnic products used for hot weapons are totally ineffective in other worlds, which forces Zhou Qingfeng to find another suitable propellant formula.

This happens to be an alchemist.

Wizard Jason, who previously made ‘Missile Staff’, had a confidential laboratory in Area 4. He led dozens of wizard apprentices responsible for verifying thousands of alchemy recipes transcribed from the'gate of true knowledge'.

This lab looks normal, with more than a dozen common compartments. The most important equipment is several high-precision balances, as well as a variety of material purification and passivation equipment.

Apprentices must take good protection when doing experiments, so as not to accidentally kill many alchemy formulas, or emit highly toxic fumes after the explosion.

Alchemists make money easily and die easily.

In the past six months, Jason has only verified more than 100 formulas. The search for the perfect propellant may be in the next second, or it may be several years.

When the lord appeared at the door of the laboratory, the black-faced Jason shouted: "The situation is the same as last week. Most of the formulas that meet the requirements are toxic after the explosion. A small number are either weak or very expensive. ."

"The Gate of True Knowledge" records the achievements of the elves for more than 20,000 years. There are too many alchemy potions that simply explode. But most of them are used to explode in the enemy, and very few are used to explode before themselves.

"Can it still be used as Scarab Powder?"

Zhou Qingfeng walked into the laboratory. Jason read the spell lightly and opened it, an activated safe. Inside the box was a small bottle with light golden powder inside.

This stuff comes from a peculiar insect, whose body is dried and pulverized, and will explode with a spark. Although the gas choked after the explosion, it was non-toxic.

But this thing is very expensive, very expensive, the cost of a round of ammunition is ten gold coins. Its source is also very limited, it is difficult to supply a large amount of demand, and even the daily training of troops is difficult to meet.

"This thing can only be used in a small amount. Your infantry still has to be equipped with a spear and heavy armor." Jason said. "As for other formulas, I am still testing. Hope to find a cheap and easy to use one day."

Zhou Qingfeng can only compromise on this, "Well, it seems that my hot weapon can only take the route of the elite soldiers. Since each bullet is so expensive, it is too wasteful to use the small soldiers. So"

"So what?" Jason felt bad.

"So we have to equip it with a rifled precision forged barrel, a zoomable sniper sight, and a gold bullet with a magic effect. It is specially used to deal with wizards and high-level knights like two hundred meters away. Value goal."

Hudson froze. His eyes were once again focused on the bottle of pale gold powder, and he felt extremely cold for the scene described by Zhou Qingfeng.

The enemies of Coldwind City are going to be in trouble, and the wizards hiding far behind the line of defense are not safe.

Zhou Qingfeng added a sentence after saying: "Can that **** scarab be cultured artificially? It certainly won't be possible to rely on wild supply. We have to change our thinking to solve the problem."

Jason never thought about this problem, he could only show his hand: "I am not an entomologist."
