Chapter 69: Vulcan Cannon

Since the last time he saw the cow, Seamus had reconsidered the danger of this world, and if those mythical creatures really existed, then the danger of this world would have to be re-evaluated.

He doesn't know much about myths and stories around the world, but he knows what everyone is familiar with. In his opinion, it was not enough, at least he had to be familiar with the characteristics of each creature, at least to be able to recognize it when he met.

There is no doubt that Lu Wei is a descendant of the three-headed dog of hell, but both the size and appearance are different from the description in Greek mythology, perhaps because the blood is not strong enough.

In Greek mythology, the three-headed dog of hell, Cerberus, had a body as large as a mountain, three huge heads, and the beards on them were all made of snakes, and where the poisonous saliva from his mouth was low, aconitum grew out, which is the same plant as the wolf venom aconitum and the scapular aconitum mentioned in Potions class.

As for Cerberus, who is also known as the caretaker of the gates of the underworld, this is still up for debate, but the underworld should be real, otherwise it would be impossible for the resurrection stone, one of the Three Hallows of Death, to summon the phantom of the dead.

The last time I saw Lu Wei, the venom dripping from its mouth only corroded the ground, and no other changes occurred, and the hair on its whole body was normal. It also has the fatal weakness of falling asleep whenever it hears music, and it is precisely because of this that Lowe has never shown its true strength.

The only known record for Lowe is that he bitten Snape in the calf, but it's hard to say if he was bitten because he was in a hurry and accidentally made a mistake, or because he was really defeated. If Snape really loses to Luwe, then Kui Niu's strength is somewhat immeasurable.

Snape would later engage in a battle with Professor McGonagall, and the two were evenly matched, with Snape even having a slight upper hand until Professor Flitwick joined, and in a 2-on-1 situation, Snape still managed to escape. In this respect, Snape is most likely the strongest person at Hogwarts other than Dumbledore.

If someone like Snape can't beat Lowe, then there's a question mark over whether Dumbledore will be able to defeat the cow in the Forbidden Forest. Of course, Seamus preferred to believe that Snape was the result of carelessness, after all, he himself said, "No one can look at three heads at the same time." ”

Unlike Lu Wei, Kui Niu basically fits the description in mythology, with no horns, all over the body, and its cry is like thunder, except that it is not known whether "there will be wind and rain when leaving the water and entering the water", everything else is perfectly matched.

If Louwe is a Cerberus with thin blood and I don't know how much, then the cow is a myth that shines into reality. Hippogriff could fight the giants with Thestrals, but when they saw the cow, they ran away without looking back, and returned to Hagrid, still shivering, and they didn't know which one was stronger or weaker.

Before seeing Kui Niu again, Seamus thought that the world's largest magical animal was the Ukrainian iron-bellied dragon or the basilisk in the secret room, both of which were nearly 20 meters long. When he went to Gringotts to open the vault, Seamus had seen the Ukrainian iron belly up close, and the difference in size was already weak, although it was old and exhausted, it brought great pressure.

But this is nothing compared to the Kui Niu or the possible existence of Cerberus, when the Kui Niu rests against the mountain peak, the huge beech tree is only on its waist, faintly revealing its single leg, nearly 80 meters by eye, if the Ukrainian iron belly is placed in front of it, it may be a matter of one foot.

It is possible for the basilisk to win with a deadly petrified gaze, but with such a size difference, whether it will work or not is a different matter.

He has developed a good relationship with Laven these days, and although this is a claustrophobic eagle, Seamus often lets him go out and move his muscles and fly twice in the sky.

Unlike the quiet of staying in the closet, once Ravan flew into the sky, he showed his ability as a blue four-winged eagle, with all four wings spread out at the same time, flying in the sky. The speed of the flight was extremely fast, and Seamus rode the Smooth Wheel 2000 to ride side by side with it, and was even beaten by Ravan in terms of agility.

Seamus writes a letter for Ravan to bring to Daisy and Jack, the ability to find a specific location by name is a special magic that gives them a special kind of magic, unless the target person has an anti-tracking charm, then the owl will definitely be able to find that person and bring the letter to him.

Seamus pushed open the window and threw Ravan out, pulling an afterimage in the air, and Ravan vanished, with a telescopic pocket strapped to his leg. Seamus wrote back this time to ask Jack to help collect myths and stories from around the world, especially about creatures with terrifying powers, with a focus on Greece and China, and by the way, Egypt.

He knows a little about Babylonian mythology, basically don't worry, Norse mythology completely ignores it, Jörmungandr will definitely not exist, if it really exists, then simply give it up.

After sending Ravan away, Seamus felt that he was still too lazy to watch the game, and that it was time to seize every bit of time to learn magic.

Whether it's a spell or a magic array, even with the blessing of the ability panel, it takes a lot of time to learn. Seamus sank back into the suitcase, and he had already sorted out a room for practicing magic, and those that were not very lethal could be practiced in the suitcase.

However, the most lethal thing in Seamu's hand now is the bomb made through the magic array, and the last time he faced the troll, if it wasn't for the help of the bomb, it might take him a long time to slowly kill the troll.

But the current bomb is at best a grenade, which can only be activated manually by itself, thrown out after a set time, and then the target cannot be avoided, because after being launched, the bomb is uncontrollable.

So Seamus plans to build a launcher that can launch bombs and explode on impact, like a bazooka.

To make a dispenser out of a magic circle, either let the cannonballs move on their own and draw a mobile magic circle on top of it, or draw a magic circle on top of the dispenser. It is relatively cost-effective to draw a magic circle on the dispenser, and as long as the drawing is successful, you can concentrate on producing bombs.

If he uses magic, the best way for him to do it now is to use the mutation obstacles, only this magic can be launched quickly, and other things such as the levitation spell can only be said to crawl slowly.

Using magic or magic arrays? This is a question worth considering, magic arrays can be launched quickly when ready, but it will be stiff, as Seamus is really not good at moving magic circles right now.

Although he can already draw the magic circle accurately and quickly, the rune composition law of the mobile magic array does not only contain the knowledge of the magic array, it is more like a high-math problem, you can understand all the symbols and words, but you can't get the result, and you can't write the process.

With obstacles, he would be more nimble and able to adjust to the actual situation, but with the help of a two-headed wand, Seamus could only fire two bombs at a time, which was far from what he needed.

After thinking about it, Seamus still decided to use the magic array, a cannonball is not accurate enough, so it will cover the bombardment, and under the nest, there will be no eggs?

Seamus uses a cutting charm to cut off the steel pipes on his hands, and then assembles them to form a six-tube Gatling, which doesn't need to be very strong, because the power for the bomb to launch does not come from the explosion of gunpowder, but from the magic circle.

Based on the weapon-making books stored in the warehouse, Seamus found a model of Gatling, and with the help of magic, easily made a huge Vulcan machine gun, with a caliber of about 50mm.

The six steel pipes will be filled with bombs, when the steel pipe rotates to the top, there will be a moving magic array at the end of the steel pipe, Seamus can only simply set the magic array to move forward, as for the trajectory or something, it can't be controlled, after testing, the initial velocity can probably reach 300m/s.

As long as the steel pipe rotates to the top, the bomb inside will be launched under the effect of mobile magic, because only for that moment, the mobile magic wand will have an effect on the bomb, so it is really similar to the bazooka, and it will be affected by gravity.

The Vulcan cannon-like launcher was made, and the most important issue now was the number of bombs. If he made it by himself, he could make two or three bombs in an hour, and the theoretical firing rate of this Vulcan cannon reached 200 rounds per minute.

And because of the firing power, the barrel will not overheat, let alone jam, as long as the ammunition is sufficient, it can be fired all the time, so the key to restricting the power of this Vulcan cannon is the number of ammunition.

If he made it by himself, I am afraid that he would not be able to exert its power at all, but in the United Kingdom, there are very few people who can draw magic arrays, and it is impossible to form a scale.

It seems that this matter still depends on the modern industry of Muggles after all, as long as the magic array pattern on the bomb is determined, it is not a problem to use machinery to make it in batches, and in the end, you only need to add "ink" to it, and a bomb is completed.

This is also the reason why Seamus chose to draw a mobile magic array on the dispenser, because the magic arrays on the bomb are all the most basic and belong to the plane magic array, but the mobile magic arrays that also belong to the basic magic array are three-dimensional.

This means that there is a big problem in mass production at the current industrial level, and the only way to do this is to take the most convenient way to reduce these complex processes, improve production efficiency, and wait for Ravan to come back and have to send another letter.
