Catherine followed the metal mouth and said as she walked, "I'm here to ask if I can increase the range of the air cannon." ”

The metal beak slowed down and flapped its wings in front of Catherine and replied, "The air cannon is not a finished product. In my design, it also needs to draw on the wind element to reach its ultimate power. But there are no natural elements in this world. ”

"Absorb the wind elemental, doesn't that mean that machine golems can combine magic?" Catherine understood.

"Alchemy and the magic in your mouth are both methods of studying the nature of the world, but one focuses on the nature of matter, the other on the natural elements, which are part of the origin of the world. When wood is ignited, a flame is generated, which is a combination of matter and natural elements. So what's wrong with combining a robot golem with magic?" said the metal mouth casually, allowing Catherine to understand alchemy and magic from a new perspective.

"But I just want to increase the range. ”

"It's all the same, increasing range and increasing power are just different ways of increasing power. ”

Catherine was inspired by this, and she asked, "Would reducing the power of the air cannon increase its range?"

"Do you want to sacrifice power to increase range?" "Metalmouth paused slightly, "How are you going to do that?"

"Can we add a detachable range-amplifying device to the muzzle?"

"It is feasible to design a range amplification device to be installed at the front end of the existing air cannon. However, the principle of this device is to accelerate the air cannonballs fired, and the acceleration power can be to partially disassemble the air cannonballs, extract the attack power and convert it into new propulsion. ”

"That's really what I think. ”

"It doesn't make much sense, the new range amplifier will not only affect the accuracy of the shot, but will also complicate the overall style of the air cannon. "Instead of adding new parts, add a new alchemy pattern to add a new type of fire to the air cannon." ”

"Added a new alchemy pattern to add a new shot type. Catherine muttered to herself, picking up the air cannon in her hand and examining it. The body of the air cannon is covered with alchemy lines, and there seems to be no room for addition.

"You haven't learned the seal carving of alchemy patterns, and you won't understand how to improve it, in fact, alchemy patterns can be erased and re-engraved, which is an advanced technique. The metal mouth pointed at Catherine, "If I come to improve, I will choose to modify the texture at one end of the air cannon, and the new texture will add new functions to the original texture design, so as to achieve the effect of converting part of the power of the air cannon into firing power." In a moment, I can give you a draft of the improved patterns, and teach you a few ways to connect the basic patterns and how to recreate the alchemy patterns. Once you've learned, you can try to modify the patterns on the air cannon on your own. However, you do so at your own risk, and if the Air Cannon is scrapped, you won't get a new weapon. ”

The words of the metal mouth are equivalent to saying that she can teach Catherine how to improve the air cannon without guaranteeing the success rate of improvement, and at the same time improve the practical operation that Catherine must do by herself.

Catherine hurriedly agreed. Her idea is also simple, the alchemy of the machine puppet series can be learned a little bit. If you can't master how to improve the air cannon in a short period of time, it's a big deal not to improve it first. The current air cannon is good enough to deal with medium-course attacks, and ranged attacks are honestly only a secondary role, after all, they sacrifice power.

The metal mouth led Catherine into the cylinder in the center of the room. Catherine hadn't seen rain in person for a while. When she met the rain twice, the female general of the Elven Empire always had a cold and expressionless face. But this time, to Catherine's surprise, the female general sat on a metal chair that rose from the floor, her face was deeply tired, and her eyes were especially listless.

Rainwater said, "I went to verify one thing, and it was no coincidence that you came here. "As soon as the rain opens, it's very impactful.

Kaser was amazed, she had come to this anchor world purely because of the remnants of the Bloodbeast's instinct to enter the depths of the Ultimate Realm, but the rain's claim suggests that there is still a secret. Catherine hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on?"

"I was a little suspicious when I first found out that you were related to West Rum, and then you mentioned the rulers and I made up my mind to find out. "We will not talk about your relationship with West Rum, but only about the rulers." First of all, you have to remember that you should not mention the specific names of the rulers at any time or in any place. ”

Catherine nodded.

"How much do you know about the rulers other than their names, and do you know their power and the meaning of their existence?"

"All I know is that they're from the realm of disorder, one of the three mystical places of the underworld. Catherine replied.

"If the realm of disorder is a realm of its own, how can it be a part of the underworld. Rain denied this claim, "I'm going to tell you something about the truth about the world now." This knowledge is the result of years of research in the Empire, and you, as the Friend of West Rum and the heir to the Corridor of Rest, have a right to know. But the transmission of this part of knowledge must be strictly restricted, because neither the divine realm nor the disorder realm wants the truth of the world to be known to the mortals. One of the triggers for the fall of the Elven Empire has something to do with it, do you understand?"

"I'm not going to spread this knowledge at will. Catherine replied with a deep breath.

"I can't restrain your future actions, but you must be cautious about this. Exploring the truth of the world involves great risk, and you have to deal with a powerful being that you cannot understand now. Big, powerful as an empire, it also paid the price of falling apart. The sound of the rain was always as cold as a machine, but now it sounded remorse and sadness.

Catherine was alert to this, suppressed her thirst for knowledge, and asked, "If the stakes are so high, why do you tell me the truth about the world?"

Rain's tired eyes fell on Catherine's face, and she stared at her for a moment before replying, "I don't want to lie to you." Your presence is not a coincidence, and that means that there is an unknown and powerful being operating in the shadows. I couldn't tell who the other person was, what they were trying to do, or even whether they were targeting me or not. So the only thing you can do is to prevent it from happening and add some variables – and that's you. I'm sure you don't want to be a pawn either, and if you want to fight against a powerful being of that level, it will be useful for you to know some background knowledge of the truth about the world. ”
