Chapter 17: The Magic Cannon Pyramid Scheme

What a strange name, Chen Xuyuan chuckled, spent a few silver coins to buy a ticket to enter, and after passing through a few narrow corridors, he came to a spacious open-air courtyard where more than thirty people gathered, but there were a few canvas tents that sheltered from the sun and rain.

In the middle, there was a person on a half-person high platform, spitting and explaining everywhere.

Chen Xuyuan didn't disturb their speeches, and quietly walked to the back row to find a seat and sat down casually.

Just listening to the speaker above, he gushed endlessly: "So we should see that fire is the most potential power, and even ordinary low-level fire spells contain wonderful possibilities. With just a few iron balls, we learned about the intuitive destructive power of the explosion. Watch me demonstrate. ”

As he spoke, he took out a "flashlight"-style spell rune prop and aimed it at a clay pot a few meters away.

Then, with just one touch of the spell gem on it, the "flashlight" flew out - a translucent red fireball the size of a skull, like a heavy mace.

"Poof" slammed into the clay pot, and it exploded and shattered.

This was not the end, the fireball had been extinguished after shattering the clay pot, revealing a grape-sized iron bead wrapped in the middle and continuing to fly out quickly, embedded in the stone slab behind it, and more than two fingers inside.

"Well, isn't this the most primitive 'assault rifle'?" said Grand Wizard Chen, a little speechless.

Although it resembles a sleeve cannon, it also uses bursts of kinetic energy to fire projectiles.

After hearing this, a middle-aged martial artist next to him couldn't help but glance at him.

Then, as if the martial artist had judged his approximate rank, he immediately whispered in honor, "Huh!~ How come a high-level wizard like you is here? But this is not the kind of thing that imitates the goblin musket! These [magic cannons] are still very useful for a mid- and low-level professional like me." ”

Chen Xuyuan looked at the crowd around him and took a closer look, and sure enough, they were all low-level wizards or martial artists below the fifth order.

He replied with a casual smile: "I just saw the bustle at the door, and I felt very curious, so I came in and took a look." But why do you say it's different from the goblin musket?"

In order not to disturb the people next to him listening to the class, the middle-aged martial artist could only tilt his head and whisper as much as possible: "These [magic cannon] weapons are completely driven by fire-based spells, and the goblin musket, which requires quick-burning powder, is too dangerous to carry, so no one uses it." ”

Chen Xuyuan nodded, immediately understanding the meaning of the other party's words, but continued to ask: "But the power and range of the musket are not bad, and the melee attacks are almost comparable to second-order spells, and it is still useful to equip a large number of low-level soldiers." ”

I saw that the other party nodded and shook his head, seemingly not completely agreeing with his statement.

The other party continued to explain: "In ancient times, a certain goblin civilization did rely on this weapon to be powerful for a while. But later it was discovered that the precision of the barrel production and processing of this thing is extremely high, and the barrel is worn out greatly when used, and it is easy to explode. It can only be replaced frequently, which is very time-consuming and laborious. The quick-burning powder used to excite the projectile in rainy days is also prone to dumb fire due to moisture. “

"The worst thing is that as long as the caster finds an opportunity. A range of high-temperature spells such as Cloud Incineration can directly destroy the entire army's ammunition depot. The capital of the Goblin Civilization era was finally bombed into a huge freshwater lake, and now a tourist attraction, known as Oppenheimer's Mushroom Lake Ruins. ”

This would be a little surprising to Grand Wizard Chen, he really didn't think about the logistical reasons at first, but when he thought about it, the powerful spellcasters with strange spell effects were indeed the natural violent class monopolized from the low-end to the high-end.

The teaching method of this "*** meeting" is very casual and comfortable.

A group of people sat in the open air in the courtyard surrounded by shrubs, green carpets, and colorful flowers, as if holding a relaxed environmental protection natural art salon.

The young man who spoke in the middle had a smooth face that was a little immature, but he was like a river, and he talked endlessly, just like ~ like those bosses who sell their wolf brainwashing concepts to employees all day long.

In the applause and applause of everyone, he even proudly declared: "Theoretically, this [magic cannon] can increase the caliber infinitely, and can use a multi-tube runner to continuously excite, we already have ready-made products here, you can buy one and try it back, and explain it like your relatives and friends, and strive for more people to join the big family of our '*** marketing meeting'." For every lower limit of purchasing [Magic Cannon], all his uplines can get a commission. ”

"The key to this [magic cannon] is not the lethality of this single shell, but the scalability of its rune array, as long as you know a little basic rune knowledge, you can make a variety of application function expansions to it. “

"I once met a very powerful ** who was inspired by the hand-cranked generator and made the [magic cannon] into a satchel-shaped rotary repeater! It can fire 24 rounds per minute. He even single-handedly defeated three squads of regular troops, a thirty-man army of longbowmen. ”

"So you don't have to be presumptuous, as long as we study hard and show our creativity, one day we will be able to reach his level on the road of [Magic Cannon]!"

The young "lecturer" finally ascended to the top and shouted, and another sincere and continuous applause rang out.

After the party, Chen Xuyuan first went to the [Magic Cannon] entrepreneurial model store they opened to visit, which really sold all kinds of [Magic Cannon], there were lotus-style scattering cannons, there were sub-cannons that would explode again after they were launched, that is, the magic circle runes engraved with a delay explosion on them, and the flying thunder cannons that were resisted by shoulders, and the solid iron cannonballs fired were the size of a baseball.

Then, Grand Wizard Chen invited the middle-aged martial artist who had a good chat just now to go to a small bar nearby to chat.

After asking about the situation, I learned that the other party's name was Sconen, and he was a desert wind warrior invited by the highest wizard of Sarn City, and he was a low-level martial artist in the officially opened Desert Wind Martial Arts Hall~ to be a low-level martial artist.

It is said to be a low-level teaching.

But in fact, most of the martial artists below the third order only teach some standing piles, routines, or simply a few royal sparring sandbags that focus on cultivating students, and are not responsible for teaching more advanced martial arts skills.

Therefore, his salary income is not much.

Since someone was treated, Sconen also unceremoniously asked for a large glass of rum and poured it in large gulps.

The Desert Wind Warrior drank his wine comfortably, while biting on the burnt chicken leg and smacking his lips again and again.

Chen Xuyuan ordered a cup of tea, a plate of tender chicken chops and minced macaroni, and quietly listened to him introduce the things of this **** meeting.
