Those two spellcasters didn't know that their companions had such tangled thoughts in their hearts at this time, and even if they knew and understood, they wouldn't care, as magic-addicted spellcasters, they didn't care much about these things.

The attention of the two was still on the battlefield in the sky, and the number of gargoyles at this time had dropped from three digits to double digits, and it would not be long before they would be completely annihilated.

"John, still no, it's still a long time before our work can really compete with the legend, and there are still a lot of experiments, and these are not even half-finished products now. ”

"Don't say it, George, today's harvest is more than enough to make up for the loss, and believe me, next time, my work will be able to bring even more magic to these legends. ”

John patted his companion on the shoulder and said comfortingly.

There was still a slight regret in his eyes, but more often than not, he still saw the goal, full of fighting spirit to run towards a clear goal.

"John, you're right. ”

After taking a few deep breaths, the smoke of the air calmed down the caster named George, who stomped his foot vigorously and said.

"I decided to add [Flame Burst] to my next work. ”

"What's that for...... The materials used by these gargoyles are not yet able to withstand the damage of the [Flame Burst]. ”

John turned his head, his eyes full of surprise, not quite understanding his companion's sudden suggestion.

George's gaze was fixed on the plague that was chasing gargoyles, and he said.

"John, have you ever been involved in the battlefield? I mean really as a mage of war, to join the army, to participate in the combat mission of the army. ”

"No, you know, George, I don't like to waste time on these things. ”

John didn't know why George suddenly asked such an unrelated question, but he answered honestly.

"As a spellcaster who joins the army and participates in the war, there is a spell that must be learned and mastered, whether it is in siege warfare or in defending the city, that spell has an important role. ”

"[Corpse Explosion], a spell that uses corpses as casting materials to cast spells, usually every successful release of [Corpse Explosion] can clear the surrounding enemies. ”

John didn't speak, he still couldn't understand why George suddenly changed the topic at this time, and just now he talked about the construct, and now he turned to the war mage and the [corpse blast technique].

"The construct, even the remains of the construct, can't be used to release the [Corpse Explosion Technique], so I plan to use the [Fire Explosion Technique] instead. ”

"John, imagine what it would be like if you were a warrior and you used your weapon to successfully dismember the gargoyles and turn them into meaningless wreckage, and then the wreckage exploded straight away. ”

John reveled in George's verbal vision, and if the gargoyle exploded directly when it was defeated, it would be a bad experience for all the attackers.

This causes Gargoyle enemies to shrink when fighting Gargoyles, and if they don't want to die with them, they must use ranged attacks to understand.

"No, no, no, if that's the case, even in the face of Legends, our gargoyles might be able to inflict more magic on them, at least I see the possibility of hurting them. ”

Awakened from his delusion, John was so excited that he couldn't wait to get back to the lab to create a new gargoyle and put it into the experiment.

John is a traditional experimental spellcaster, who likes to read books for inspiration, and likes to spend his time in the laboratory, compressing as much time as possible from his daily life such as eating and sleeping.

"Don't be in a hurry, my dear John. ”

George slightly soothed the impulse of the companion next to him.

"The next battle may surprise us a little. ”

"There's no surprise, this battle is almost coming to an end, and the rest of us are not something that mortals like us can participate in. ”

John smiled self-deprecatingly, but he didn't mention anything back, sweeping the nature of the companion next to him, even if he was obsessed with experiments and stayed at home, the basic understanding of the accident was still understood, and there was no need to cause displeasure to his companion in this matter.

"George. ”

"What?"

George watched intently as the plague moved and how it turned its work into wreckage, falling from the sky and turning into irreparable rubble.

"I've thought about it, we need to use the [Flame Blast] on the gargoyle, and there are a few more problems to overcome. ”

John calmed down, thought about the idea he had just conceived, and had to come up with a new and needed problem.

"The cost of [Flame Blast], if we want to engrave [Flame Blast] on the gargoyle, we will face a problem, the materials needed to engrave the [Flame Blast] are more expensive than the gargoyle. ”

The Empire has a clear requirement for the invention of constructs, especially those like Gargoyles, that is, the lowest cost to obtain the highest returns, and the need for adaptability.

These gargoyles must be able to fight in a variety of environments, whether it's deserts, volcanoes, snowy mountains, ice fields, forests, or windy seas, without compromising their combat effectiveness.

Obviously, the Empire wants to use the gargoyle as a cheap conventional weapon, and the idea of [Flame Blast] is likely to be rejected outright.

"Another problem is that gargoyles with [Flame Blast] tattooed on them become extremely unstable, and it is difficult for us to make them explode when they are destroyed, or even if they are destroyed, they will not explode. ”

If the previous problem is already in George's mind, and he needs to go back and think about how to solve it, then the latter problem is what George did not think of.

"You see, if the gargoyles are flying in groups and are attacked by enemy bows and arrows, and one of them is destroyed, resulting in an explosion, it will spread to the surrounding gargoyles, destroying the entire gargoyle army in a chain. ”

John gestured with his hand and expressed the worry in his heart.

"Well, you're right. ”

George thought about it for a moment and realized that what John said was not wrong.

If the gargoyle's explosion becomes uncontrollable, then the habits of the empire will never be thrown into the battlefield, because uncontrollable represents unexpectedness and will give the enemy a chance to take advantage of it.

Think about the previous battle with the Attila Empire, and it was precisely because the Attila Empire used the explosive arrows produced by the Baltic Empire that the Baltic Empire suffered great casualties.

Those enemies of the Baltic Empire, because of their backwardness in culture and technology, except for a limited legend, are indeed difficult to bring trouble to the empire's army on the battlefield.

However, those who are able to fight with the weapons and equipment captured from the Baltic Empire do not need to study how to produce them, they do not need to invest in huge research and development, as long as they can take them from the hands of the enemy and learn how to use them.

The few questions raised by John made George's mood extremely depressed, and the inspiration he gained from the [Corpse Explosion Technique] would end in nothing, and he would not even have the opportunity to experiment.

"George, how do you want to apply the [Fire Explosion Technique] to the gargoyle, if it is to strengthen the gargoyle's combat power, we have other spells to choose from. ”

John didn't want to see his companions and friends so sad, clumsily using a clumsy way to change the subject.

"[Flame Blast], I hope to be able to use this method to force those Legends to use long-range means to deal with our Gargoyles, which will consume more of their time, consume their mana, energy, stamina, and ammo, and create opportunities for our Legends. ”

"In addition, gargoyles that can explode will become operational bombs, allowing them to better control their explosions and pose a higher threat to their enemies. ”

George's answer made John's eyes widen, he didn't expect that behind this [Flame Explosion Technique], George had so many thoughts.

"Are you trying to implement the unrealistic ideas that those guys have come up with?"

John asked in surprise, thinking of the theories put forward by some spellcasters in the Empire, to create a bomb that can move and have a certain intelligence, which is actually a controllable explosive arrow that can be manipulated.

"Use gargoyles as consumables, your thoughts ......"

John thought about it, and couldn't find a better word in his head to describe George's thoughts.

"It's a bit of a waste, these gargoyles come to the battlefield as soldiers and become consumables, and all the structures produced by the Empire are like this, except for those that can awaken their wisdom. ”

George smiled faintly, not surprised by John's attitude.

"I really want to create a weapon that can move, can pursue the enemy, has excellent mobility, and has controllability, you see that if a constructor like a gargoyle can explode, doesn't it perfectly match the description of this weapon?"

"Of course, the cost aspect is indeed a problem that cannot be ignored, compared to those cheap iron balls that can be produced on the assembly line, there is still a slight gap in the gargoyle aspect. ”

George sighed, before the [Flame Explosion Technique] found a replacement, he really had no way to realize his idea, there was no way to use consumables at too high a cost, and if there was a finished product that was too high, it would not be a consumable.

"No, George, don't just give up, maybe there is a way to solve this problem, we can't limit our eyes to the [Flame Burst Technique], there are other spells that can achieve this effect. ”

"You're just looking at those spells, why don't you think about the runes of rune?"

There was a smile on John's lips, and the colors were flying.

"Rune runes?"

As if grasping something, George looked thoughtfully at the battlefield in the distance, watched the plague clean up all the gargoyles, and then set his sights on the army of the Baltic Empire, and then in the middle of the assault, he was stopped by more than a dozen legends.

"Yes, Rune Rune. ”

"Gargoyles are used to drop bombs from the sky, and the iron balls used are made of rune runes, and if we can engrave rune patterns on gargoyles, we can also achieve the effect of [Fire Explosion]. ”

"That's right, that's right, that's right. ”

George, who suddenly became bright, grabbed John's hand and said excitedly.

"The cost of runes is very low, and it can be produced on an assembly line, and it is enough to add the process to the production line for gargoyles. ”

In this way, George's idea was a real reality, and with one final problem to overcome, he had the confidence to go back and convince the Empire to apply for research funding to produce this self-exploding gargoyle.

"The last question, I thought of a solution, a gargoyle that can explode itself will definitely be more terrifying than an ordinary gargoyle in terms of attrition, and we can completely let this gargoyle deal with more difficult enemies. ”

"Ordinary gargoyles are enough to deal with enemies of the level of jackals, and if you want to kill the white bears, mammoths, ogres, and trolls, you can still accept them with self-exploding gargoyles. ”

John's idea, the probability of realization is really not low, with the practice of the wealthy empire, if this kind of gargoylum can really be produced, it will definitely be used in these aspects.

"No, no, John, not just for fighting hostile soldiers, these gargoyles can sort of replace our catapults. ”

George shook his head and corrected John's statement.

"Do you see the houses that collapsed in the bombing, and what if the explosion was placed on the turret, on the wall?"

"The Empire has been improving the catapult internally, hoping to improve the hit rate of the catapult, reduce the difficulty of the catapult, and allow ordinary soldiers to operate such weapons without much effort. ”

"However, if our self-detonating gargoyle can be put into use, the catapult will be completely eliminated from the stage of history, our gargoyle can accurately blow up the target, and it is no longer a problem in terms of hit rate, it will not become the target of the enemy's attack because of its bulky reasons, there is no need for additional training for soldiers, there is no need for cumbersome reloading, and the enemy has a chance to fight back. ”

"John, we are developed, John. ”

"If this kind of self-detonating gargoylee is created by us, the Empire will definitely not be stingy. ”

George had already discovered that his idea would completely change previous wars, would make the Baltic Empire much more aggressive, and would be able to completely eliminate the heavy catapults and catapults from the Empire's battle sequence.
