Chapter 575: Strength Prevails

"Then you asked those animal trainers about the success rate of training tomahawk birds into flying war horses?" However, just as the depressed teammates were accusing the system of messing up, Li Ran suddenly asked.

In the somewhat surprised eyes of her teammates, Zhang Juan looked at Li Ran and hurriedly replied: "I also asked about this, and they all said that it was about eighty percent."

"I forgot that there is also the training power, or Brother Ran is thoughtful, in this case, the cost of each will rise by two percent, then it will be even less cost-effective" Sun Jianye nodded and said.

"I wonder if there are many other creatures besides us?" Just as the teammates shook their heads, Li Ran suddenly continued to ask.

Although he was a little puzzled why Li Ran asked this, Zhou Xun thought for a while and said: "I inadvertently asked Lord Dorrick about this, and he told me that although this kind of tomahawk bird is not an endemic creature to us here, except for the food called quality rice that they like to eat near the Leices Mountains, there are really not many other places, and there seems to be a small number of such creatures in the dark forest in the entire empire."

Seeing that Li Ran sighed and didn't speak, the teammates thought that this matter was over, but after dozens of minutes of chatting, Li Ran suddenly burst out: "Zhang Juan, you are now in Edoron City, then bring some of this food back, by the way, hire a few special feeding personnel and animal trainers, remember that it must be good, and then ~ send it directly to the elf territory"

Hearing this, the teammates who didn't know Li Ran's decision threw surprised glances at this time.

"Brother Ran, you don't really want to cultivate these tomahawk birds, do you?" Sun Jianye hurriedly asked.

After seeing Li Ran's confirmation of the nod. All his teammates expressed their incomprehension, as if they were afraid that he had misheard. Liquidated the price to be paid to Li Ran again, and also emphasized the current price of the griffin again.

Li Ran sighed and said, "I know what you mean. But after all, griffons are only a class with intimate bonuses to the Terrans, and except for the Zhou team, no one else is suitable for the commander."

Although everyone understood what Li Ran meant, thinking of its expensive price, Sun Jianye was still a little unconvinced: "There are also many other riding arms, in addition to griffins, there are also such as Neil giant eagles, high-level mechanical birds, horned eagles, flying rays, toucans, dragon eagles, winged dragons, giant eagles, etc., including many dragons." Why did you choose this tomahawk bird? ”

Li Ran nodded and continued to ask: "Then apart from the dragon clan, these are a little too far away, do you know the weight of other flying mounts that can be ridden?" ”

Hearing Li Ran's question, Sun Jianye thought about it and replied with some hesitation: "I really don't know much about this, I only know that the horned eagle beasts generally ride elves, and the griffins ride mostly dwarves, of course, sometimes there are some other races, as for the others, it is not very clear, and most of the people riding dragon eagles are elves and human knights."

Li Ran looked at him and said, "The weight of an adult horned eagle beast is 30 kilograms. Except for some royal griffins and elite bodies, the general high-level griffin has a weight of about 50-60 kg, the mature top-level dragon eagle has a weight of about 100 kg, and the high-level mechanical bird has a weight of 50 kg. The Neil eagle is about 150 kilograms, and the situation of the flying rays is more special, and they can vary greatly in size depending on the level. However, in one case, the weight of high-order flying rays is only about 100 kilograms, which can be roughly calculated from various sources."

I didn't expect Li Ran to be so clear about the load-bearing capacity of the various known rideable flying classes. Everyone was surprised and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed at the same time, and after listening to Li Ran's words. The teammates also seemed to realize what Li Ran wanted to express, and at this time, Zhou Xun first asked, "Have you taken a fancy to the load-bearing capacity of these tomahawk birds, which is comparable to the top-level flying war horse?" ”

With a sigh of gratitude, Li Ran spoke: "A flying mount, especially when they want to become war horses, in addition to their own strength, the level of the warrior they are riding is also very important, why should the horned eagle beast archer choose a short or even underage elf archer?" Why is it that the griffon cavalry is mostly dwarves wearing only leather armor, instead of riding a stronger elven or Terran warrior with chain armor like the top-tier dragon eagle? I think you should know why."

Seeing the thoughtful expressions of Zhou Xun and the others, Li Ran took a sip of water and continued: "Although these tomahawk birds are only high-level troops, and it takes a lot of money to cultivate them to be able to really put them into the battlefield, but they have a load-bearing capacity comparable to or even more than some top-level flying war horses, and as neutral creatures, this makes them more hidden potential development, and from the perspective of war, although they are not as unique magical skills as the top-level Dragon Eagle and Neil Giant Eagle, However, their huge and stout body and unique axe-shaped giant mouth are very suitable for aerial charges, and can also give them a certain advantage in air combat, as for the degree of agility and maneuverability, I believe you have all seen it before, I don't need to say more."

At this time, Zhou Xun and his teammates could no longer speak, there were so many considerations and comparisons behind a seemingly random decision, this was undoubtedly an extracurricular guidance for them, allowing them to understand the reasons at the same time, it also made them look at the third world arms A lot more broadened, and they reconsidered the reasons Li Ran said.

However, Li Ran's guidance was obviously not over yet, and at the same time that the teammates felt that they had understood, Li Ran continued: "But to summarize the above, in fact, it is not the key to my determination to train these tomahawk birds to become war horses, the reason why I was skeptical just now was mainly that I was worried that the investment was too large and took too long, but it was the griffin you just mentioned that made me make up my mind."

Looking at the curious expressions of his teammates, Li Ran took a sip of water before he spoke: "We all know the power of griffins and griffin knights in air combat, and the air combat troops will definitely be one of the types of troops pursued by various legions in the future. Naturally, it will not be deliberately restrained by the enemy in war, and maybe it can still play a surprise effect" (to be continued.) )
