Section 102 Landmines

"But......" If Lu Wu is not mistaken, Amber should have killed the bald head before. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 Of course, Lu Wu didn't have time to observe in such detail that time. After all, the situation was very urgent at that time, and there were a lot of things to deal with. Aqi and the others who had passed out needed to wake up - in case they woke up naturally and saw Amber would be in trouble. The drivers waiting outside could come up at any time to take a look, plus there was a fear that a new destroyer would arrive. In short, at that time, Lu Wu had no spare time to care about Amber's psychological state. In fact, on the subsequent return trip, he didn't even get a chance to see Amber again (because White Ash died of being able to find his way and keep him safe, so the situation was not the same as the way he came). By the time I had time to spend with Amber again, a long time had passed.

Even if Amber had any emotions to adjust, that time was over.

"Alright, partner, listen to me clearly, as far as I know, humans are very adaptable creatures, so don't worry too much. She'll recover soon. As a warlock, she will adapt, and in fact she will have to. Our problem now is not with the little warlock, but with your safety. ”

Lu Wu sighed, remembering what happened to the Ranger before. Although the Rangers were bare-handed at that time, they were not at all able to defeat Lu Wu - let alone counterattack, they didn't even have the ability to resist a little. Because Amber had never used this kind of trick against him, although he knew that magic was magical in the past, it was indeed the first time Lu Wu had tasted magic.

If anything, it was the absolute powerlessness (and anger) in the face of magic. Although Lu Wu was not armed at that time, it was obvious that no matter what kind of armament there was, there was no point. What weapons and equipment are used by people, if people are not conscious, then what else can they do?

And it turned out that the Lunatic Warlock didn't give it all out that time. Because what happened next proved that the Warlock had the ability to get the entire town and the guards inside until they lost consciousness (or fell asleep).

"The one Amber just said...... What does it mean to fight how?"

"It's to teach the warlocks their fighting skills, physical skills, or whatever, that's what it means. Partner, this is a rare opportunity. ”

"Is it useful to learn what kind of fighting technique is there?" Lu Wu really didn't know how to use magic rings and have fighting skills or something before. In fact, when you have a magic ring, you don't need skill at all to deal with others. Because the timelines of both sides are not on the same line - when the difference in speed between the two sides is greater than that of a cheetah and a snail, nothing seems meaningless. To exaggerate, if the other party throws a punch at you, you can go out and have a cup of tea, maybe take a nap, and when you come back, the other party's punch is still halfway there. In this case, no technology is required at all.

"Of course it works," said the master, "see this ring in your hand, and its magic power has been consumed quite a bit, probably ...... Well, I guess it's about sixty percent. The only difference between them is in their appearance, and even the magic contained in them is almost the same. ”

The magic ring in Lu Wu's hand, the one Amber gave him just now, was very different from the few he had seen before. This magic ring has a snake-like pattern on it, which was not seen before.

"Don't look at it, partner, it's made by Stygian...... Although the appearance is slightly different, the essence is the same, and it belongs to the kind of equipment that can be used at will. You can rest assured that even though it's from another camp, you won't be mistaken if you wear it. ”

Lu Wu put on the ring, and to be honest, it felt no different from the ring he originally had.

"The Radiant Moon and the Stygian Moon...... What is the difference between the two warlocks?" Lu Wu asked subconsciously. It was as if he had asked such questions, but he had not received a clear answer.

"Oh, that's a good question, and to be honest I can't be sure. For now, I think so: although the Warlocks believe that their power comes from different moons, they are essentially the same. If I were to make an analogy, it would be the yin-yang fish...... It's the one from the Taiji diagram, you know, right?"

"Yin and Yang Fish ......"

"Yes, to say that there is no difference between them, it is true that there is no difference, in fact, except for a slight difference on the outside, almost exactly the same on the inside. Say they have a difference...... That's also the cognitive difference. But partner, you have to understand that this little difference alone is enough. Anyway, the root of the matter is not so much on the warlocks as on the two moon heads. Why did you go so far?"

"If I learn that fighting technique......

"Don't underestimate it, that's something that only the Fourth Lawyer's and above are qualified to learn. The master said. "It is a complete and rigorous study after scientific demonstration, and what has been learned and what has not been learned is a completely different thing. "It was a little softer, though." "It's theoretical, it's not that conservative in practice, otherwise the little warlock wouldn't have taught it to you so easily. Many people who have the ability to get their hands on magic rings relatively easily—most of them relatives of some high-ranking warlock or something—have the opportunity to learn this. ”

"You mean, I'll be able to fight against the Rangers after I learn it?" Lu Wu didn't believe it. Although he didn't wear a magic ring at that time (as mentioned earlier, he usually hid the ring on his body instead of wearing it on his hand in order to keep his magic power from being lost in vain), but even if he did, it was obviously useless. Not to mention the uncontrollable, supernatural feeling of dizziness, the Moon Warlock was obviously wearing a magic ring as well.

Although the magic ring can make people move incredibly fast - but that is because the other party does not have such equipment. But it's clear that the Stygians, especially the Rangers, also have this equipment. In fact, as far as Lu Wu knew, the same was true of the Huiyue camp, and it was not too difficult for a warlock, even if it was a mid- or low-level warlock, to have it.

"Well, if you want to be analogous," said the master. "You can imagine that wearing a ring now counts as bare-handed, but if you learn a little bit of martial arts, you can count as having a pistol like May Fourth or June Fourth. ”

"But what grade does that Ranger we met before count?"

"That...... At least it's at the level of an automatic semi-automatic rifle. The master hesitated for a moment and replied. "Yes, it's hard to beat a rifle with a pistol, but it's more or less able to resist. If you don't even have a pistol, you really have to wait for death. Anyway, it's good for you to learn well. And this doesn't conflict with the command learning of the floating fortress. ”

Really...... If you have a 64 pistol, often jokingly referred to as a "small smashing gun", go against an assault rifle like an AK47 or M16. Although there is finally a slight chance, the chances of winning are not big.

"By the way, partner, there's one more thing to remind you. Remember what the little warlock said last time?"

"What?"

"It's the young scholar," the master reminded. "She has a small amount of magic on her body. ”

"Oh, Amber said that it should be a trace of the use of the magic ring......" Lu Wu felt that this was normal. It is impossible for such a scholar of apparently high status to come to the front line of the battlefield unprepared. It makes sense to carry a magic ring.

"Yes, the magic ring, there's a good chance she's got it. The master said. "So, if the ring doesn't have enough magic, you can find a way from her. ”

"Snatch her ring?" Lu Wu didn't think it was a good idea.

"Where do you want to go, mate!" shouted the master. "I mean, she should have permission to buy the ring!"

The value of the magic ring is very expensive, much more expensive than exoskeleton armor and the like, and to be honest, it is not cost-effective. However, it pales in comparison to the near-bottomless pit investment in repairing the Floating Fortress. Lu Wu's problem now is that he doesn't have the authority to buy magic rings at all.

"It's a great idea. Lu Wu's eyes lit up. And it feels like the scholar is very talkative, and she has a good impression of him. Of course, the former may have been deliberately shown by her, and the latter was more likely to be his delusion. But at the very least, Butterfly Dream's chest is one size bigger than Amber's—at least half a size.

Lu Wu hurriedly slapped himself on the forehead to drive away these superfluous thoughts. There is no time to deal with these issues now, and this imminent threat must be addressed as soon as possible.

"Master, I have an idea. He said. At the same time, Lu Wu turned on his terminal, switched its function to communication, and called Hongyi.

……

"Your request has indeed paid off. Red-clothed placed the disc-shaped object in his hand on the table. It has a metal shell and is not painted, so it looks shiny.

Lu Wu wanted three things, and although the other two hadn't arrived yet, at least there was already one.

"But I have to warn," Redcoat said. "It has a limited range of applications. It is only suitable for defensive combat, but we all know that the attacking side is rarely light infantry, but at least a large number of heavy infantry. ”

Lu Wu picked up the disc in his hand - it was not very big, probably the size of two palms of ordinary people. Lu Wu had touched its similar products on Earth, but felt that it was much lighter than its counterparts on Earth. This shows that the level of technology in this world is very high, and it is not because they can't build this weapon that they don't have it, but because of some other reason.

It's a landmine. That's right, an anti-infantry mine composed of a trigger device, explosives (Lu Wu doesn't know what the explosives here are, but I don't think it should be TNT) and steel balls. It's a tripping thunderbolt, hung in the corner with a lead. As soon as someone trips over the lead, it triggers an explosion that sprays hundreds of steel balls in a fixed direction.

"Well, have you tried it?" Lu Wu asked.

"I've tried, it should be a very effective weapon against an unprotected human body, but for exoskeleton armor......" Redcoat called up a picture from his terminal, so that Lu Wu could see the effect clearly - if you look at it roughly, the exoskeleton armor doesn't look like it has changed at all, and only if you look closely, you will find that there are some scratches on it that can easily be seen as stains.

“…… No effect at all. A person wearing exoskeleton armor can simply wander around a minefield. Redcoat said. "The name 'landmine' is a good one, but in fact it is completely unworthy of the name. In addition, if you increase its power, it will also grow in size, and it will become easier to spot. When the time comes, a little bit of a special sensor on the exoskeleton will be able to deal with this kind of thing. ”
