Chapter 202: The Power of the Iron Arrow
The extra-long double crossbow arms and the crossbow string made of fire-spotted ox tendon give the giant crossbow an extraordinary pulling force.
In order to test the power of the crossbow, Alan had the repair shop use ready-made iron ingots to create several iron plates about one centimeter thick, and tied them to a giant tree a hundred meters away.
Alan took the powerful crossbow from Fra's hand, put a one-meter-long, iron-made crossbow arrow into the arrow slot, held it in front of the crossbow machine with his left hand, and pulled the string with his right hand.
In the process of pulling the string, Alan could deeply feel a huge resistance, Alan took a deep breath, his arms forced, and with a squeak, the giant crossbow was pulled away by Allen.
His eyes were fixed on the iron ore tied to the giant tree, and after aiming at the crosshair, Eren directly pulled the trigger.
"Whoosh!"
I heard the sound of the crossbow string cutting through the air, and the huge arrow, like a line of white light, pierced straight into the iron block a hundred meters away.
"Boom!"
A huge sound spread through the barracks, like a violent explosion, and I saw that the iron arrow pierced straight into the iron, and instantly broke it, and more than half of the whole arrow entered the giant tree behind the iron.
The giant tree trembled, and the dead branches on the tree broke and fell under the violent impact.
"Okay! haha!" Alan was very satisfied, the power of this giant crossbow was still above his expectations, and at a distance of 100 meters, it was easy to pierce the iron plate one centimeter behind.
If this appears on the battlefield, it will definitely be a nightmare for heavy armor.
You must know that the iron armor in Mu Sen's collar is just chain mail now, although the defense is not weak, it is far from the one-centimeter-thick iron armor.
Generally, the thickness of iron armor will not exceed three millimeters, even if the heavy armor soldier wears three layers of iron armor, the giant crossbow can penetrate at one time.
Alan didn't stop experimenting, he asked Barton to help the iron again, but this time it was two pieces of iron, and Alan wanted to see if the giant crossbow could penetrate the iron plate two centimeters later.
After pulling the string, Alan pulled the trigger again, and the iron arrow pierced the air, making a soft whining sound, and quickly collided with the iron plate.
"Boom!"
This time, the iron arrow still lived up to expectations, and after piercing the two iron plates, the arrow still pierced into the giant tree behind, but this time only the entire arrow was submerged into the trunk.
Then Alan tried three more pieces of iron, but unfortunately this time the iron arrow did not pierce the three iron plates as Alan expected, and the iron arrow arrow remained in the third iron plate after piercing the two iron plates.
Later, Alan experimented with a distance of 150 meters, and found that at a distance of 150 meters, the iron arrow could only barely pierce through two iron plates, and if the distance continued to grow, when it reached 200 meters, the iron arrow could only pierce through one iron plate.
Alan put down the giant crossbow in his hand and nodded with satisfaction, this kind of killing weapon is used to deal with high-level knights, and it can basically directly pierce its elemental barrier, not to mention the elemental barrier of middle-level knights.
The knight's elemental barrier is not omnipotent, although the defense of the elemental barrier is stronger than that of the iron armor, but it is maintained by the elemental power in the knight's body, as long as the attack power is strong enough, the elemental barrier can be broken directly.
Now Alan is already a high-level knight, and he has some understanding of the elemental barrier of high-level knights, and his defensive power is about the same as a centimeter of iron armor, which is why Alan asked the repair department to build the iron plate into a centimeter, he just wants to test the specific extent of the lethality of this giant crossbow to the high-level knights.
Now it seems that as long as it is within two hundred meters, the giant crossbow can effectively kill high-ranking knights.
Of course, this is when the high-ranking knights are forbidden to stay still, but in real battles, high-ranking knights will not stand there stupidly and use the giant crossbow as a target.
From the strength of the soldier to the low-level knight to the high-level knight, the improvement of strength is all-round, and the increase in strength is only one aspect of the change in strength.
If it is really so easy, then there may be a low-level knight who can match the high-level knight in the future, but unfortunately this situation is impossible, of course, if it is an ambush in advance, it is still possible to use the giant crossbow to sneak attack and complete the feat of killing the high-level at the low level.
It's just that a technique like a sneak attack is okay to use once or twice, but it is not suitable for normal situations, after all, it is impossible for the giant crossbow to be kept from others all the time.
As for the problem of the hit rate of the giant crossbow, Allen naturally had some consideration, and he was ready to use the method of position blocking.
Since the one-crossbow method is very unrealistic, Allen is going to use the multi-crossbow method of one person, using multiple crossbow arrows to predict the location where the high-ranking knight may move, and cover it with iron arrows.
It is conceivable that when a high-ranking knight dodges the arrows, no matter which direction he deflects, there will be one or more crossbow arrows waiting for him, and he can only watch the arrows arrive and do nothing.
"Fora!" Alan handed the giant crossbow in his hand to Barton next to him, and turned to Forah behind him.
"Lord Viscount!
"Hurry up and make the Great Crossbow!, you can tell me what materials you need!" Alan said with a smile.
"Yes, Lord Viscount!" said Fura with an excited face!
After the experiment with the Great Crossbow, Alan didn't stay in the repair room for long, and took Barton out of the repair room.
......
Three days later, the night was getting darker, and the purple moon had already come to the center of the starry sky, and the moonlight was sprinkled on the fire cow village that had already fallen asleep.
At this moment, outside the Fire Cow Village, a group of people in the darkness were approaching the Fire Cow Village, and Alan only brought the combat power of the knights of the Blue Desolation Knights this time, as well as eight low-level knights and Battenbad.
After evading the guards outside the Fire Cow Village, Alan led ten people into the Fire Cow Village, and the shadows in the Fire Cow Village had been waiting for a long time.
"Lord Viscount, the shadows are all here!" Abith whispered in the darkness, only to see shadows flickering in the darkness all over the Bull Village, these are shadows hiding in the dark.
"Abyss, let the Shadows go around the residences of all the targets except for the Captain of Fire Cow Village, and keep an eye on them all in case something happens! You take me to the House of the Village Chief!" Alan said softly.
This time, for the Fire Cow Village, Allen's plan is the same as dealing with the Black Mulberry Village, striving to control the entire upper echelons of the Fire Cow Village in one night, so as to achieve the goal of secretly controlling the Fire Cow Village.
"Yes!" Abyss responded, hurrying to the darkness in the distance to give orders to the shadows, and it didn't take long for all the figures in the darkness to disappear. Take a look at the latest chapter of "Ambition Lord's Claw Book House" and read it for free for the first time.
