Chapter Twenty-Nine: True Magic Electromagnetic Gun
People always say that the collision between geniuses will definitely burst out of the most beautiful and brilliant sparks, although Arthur is not a genius, but after all, he has a world knowledge background, and he is also a genius to some extent in this backward wizarding world, and the collision between him and the local genius Rambo is of course not an ordinary thing.
When Arthur and Rambo first considered the magic modification of the automatic rifle, they actually had two options at first.
The first is more secure, still retaining the main part of the automatic rifle, and only changing the way the rifle bullet is driven. That is to say, the other bolts, fire control, and ammunition feeding mechanisms of the gun are not changed, but only the way in which the rifle bullet is driven by the gas released by the detonation of chemical energy from gunpowder is changed, and it is changed to the magic method.
There are many magic drivers that can be considered, such as the most common, the wind elemental magic drive, the fire element magic drive, and the mixed elemental magic electric magic magic drive built on a higher level.
Electricity magic is a hybrid magic based on the fire element and the air element, according to the oldest alchemical worldview of the ancient wizard era, the entire world of Loran is based on the material basis of the four elements of air, fire, water, and earth, and all other magic is created on the basis of the mixture of several elemental magic.
Specific to the changes to this gun, the so-called magic drive method is to engrave runes on the bullet firing part of the barrel to construct a set of element-driven spell models.
The alchemist uses his own spiritual power to drive the spell model, extract the magic crystal energy, release the magic power, and cast a spell to act on the bullet of the gun to accelerate the bullet, which is the magic guide gun driven by the magic guide. The so-called magic is to turn the magic that the mages use to harm into power, driving machinery or other things to work.
This is where alchemists and mages differ.
Compared with mages who simply turn magic into their own power and use it for injuries between people, alchemists choose to turn magic into power to drive magic tools to transform nature and improve people's lives.
This is also where alchemists or magic scientists are proud.
But the trouble is that in the end, the two found that after the last set of rune models were changed, the final effect was very unsatisfactory.
Whether it's the wind elemental, the fire element, and the most explosive electric magic in the legend, they are all unsatisfactory in terms of the final warhead drive effect. The impetus given to the warhead by the elemental magic that erupted in the confined space of the barrel was not even as effective as the original gunpowder fire.
It's a bit awkward.
Since it is an improvement, how can it be possible to improve something even worse than the original, isn't this a sign that smashed the two of their future great alchemists, Arthur and Rambo were naturally not satisfied, and considered making changes again.
However, in order to continue to increase the power of the bullets, it is necessary to replace the original with a larger and more complex compound drive rune circle, and also need to replace it with a higher-quality magic crystal.
This will greatly increase the cost of making guns, and the higher-level spell model is not something that the two of them can control now, so such a magic change plan will naturally not satisfy the two of them.
Then, Arthur came up with another, even bolder idea, to completely reshape the gun, that is, the idea that he originally appeared on Earth and only appeared in science fiction, that is, the electromagnetic coil gun.
Wrap a dense electromagnetic coil around the barrel of the rifle, so that after the power is applied, according to the principle of electromagnetism, a strong electromagnetic field can be formed in the center of the winding electromagnetic coil, that is, in the hollow of the barrel, and there are two energized rails laid by Mithril in the barrel, that is, the acceleration track of the rifle.
In this way, when a metal projectile such as a bullet is stuck between the rails, a moving closed electric field is formed, and the energized projectile is accelerated by the electromagnetic field force according to the laws of electromagnetism under the force of a strong electromagnetic field.
Theoretically, the stronger the electromagnetic field strength of the barrel, the higher the acceleration of the bullet, and the greater the power of the final bullet.
After all, the most theoretically terrifying weapon on Earth, the Electron Collider, which can accelerate particles to nearly the speed of light, is based on the same principle, it can easily accelerate a bullet to ten times the speed of sound, and at this speed, any object can produce terrifying lethality.
The electromagnetic cannon is almost the same as this principle, in fact, when Arthur was on Earth, some super-states had already completed the experiment and installed it as a terrifying conventional weapon.
As for the electromagnetic rifle, it has not yet been produced because of the low power and coil material.
But this is the world of Loland, and the situation in the world of Loland is very different from that of Earth.
Room-temperature superconducting materials, which are not available on Earth for various reasons, and miniature strong magnetic fields that are difficult to manufacture, are not a problem in Loraine.
Many things in the wizarding world are beyond the imagination of earthlings, such as a magic commonly used by mages, flying magic, which is completely defying gravity, can you imagine that this is just a low-level magic in the spell sequence of mages?
Also, the anti-gravity technology on the earth, which is regarded as a black technology, can be solved with only a simple rune basic configuration in Zu'an's magic technology, which is even easier than eating.
A lot of things here are very unreasonable.
The most commonly used universal magic metal Mithril in the world of Lorrain is a super superconductor that earthlings have never seen, the two of them use a super electromagnetic coil made of Mithril wire, and then the electric magic generates an electric current and introduces the Mithril coil, and then they can create a super electromagnetic field driven by magic that can accelerate a metal warhead of 5MM caliber to 5 times the speed of sound.
With a metal warhead of such speed, the power is very satisfying.
In short, during the test firing, Rambo saw the steel shield that had been pierced by one shot, stacked on top of each other and half a foot thick, and he didn't react for several days.
"Hey, I said, are you holding this thing to deal with the dragon?"
Rambo commented.
In this way, what the two of them finally got was a magic electromagnetic rifle that looked like a thick barrel and a wide and square shape, which looked more like a flat rectangular body. The appearance is very high-tech, with a total weight of 5 kg and a load of fifty rounds, the only drawback is that the charging of the magic guide coil is very slow, resulting in a slow rate of fire.
The two men used the best materials they could get their hands on, and the final result was a gun with a rate of fire of only 60 rounds per minute, with an average of only one fire per second.
One shot at a second! All right! This rate of fire is almost comparable to that of its ancestor flintlock pistol!
Arthur didn't know that the two of them had come up with such a thing, it was a failure!
But this thing is very good in Rambo's opinion,
"It's really powerful, you can slay dragons!"
"I've decided, I'm going to put a gun like this on my next piece of gear, and I don't want to use that stupid electronic harpoon."
"Huh? What's next? ”
But Rambo's words made Arthur hear another meaning,
"What top-secret equipment? Tell me about it! ”
But the stingy Rambo was hesitant and just refused to say it.
Hum! Small! Arthur twitched the corners of his mouth and looked at the little guy. This little guy looks innocent and straightforward, but in fact, he is also very careful in his heart, this Arthur has long seen it, and there was a letter of recommendation from Elder Zuan hidden in front of Master Victor, and Arthur saw it after a while.
It's not a fuel-efficient lamp either!
Arthur kept pressing, but Rambo wouldn't say.
In the end, Arthur had to give up, huh! Someday you'll tell me. I don't believe you can keep the secret.
The source power of this True Magic Electromagnetic Gun's magic array is a huge thunder crystal from the Half-Blood Dragon Beast Thunder Monitor Lizard, which is the size of an egg, embedded in the butt of the gun, although it is not as good as the real top-level dragon crystal, but it is also a large number of sufficient, which can be called abundant source power, giving you a galloping heart! There should be no problem with firing five thousand times of the energy drive circle stored inside, but this is the high-level magic material that Arthur used to call in his capacity as a disciple of Victor.
Put it outside, just this magic crystal can buy two Groot.
In short, this magic guide gun is made of materials, it can really be said that it is full of materials, and the final result is that this magic guide electromagnetic rifle is powerful enough, but the firepower is very urgent, and the rate of fire is too slow, it seems that it is only suitable for sniping, not for fire suppression.
But considering that when Arthur left on Earth, the world's most advanced electromagnetic cannon only had a rate of fire of 4.5 rounds per minute, Arthur was basically satisfied.
After all, there is still a lot of room for improvement in this gun, and he and Rambo are only alchemy apprentices now, and they have not yet had the opportunity to contact and master more and more sophisticated alchemy and rune circles, and they still need to learn.
One day, he will be able to change the weapon that destroys the world and is invincible in the domain, so he is not in a hurry now.
Anyway, he doesn't usually have a lot of opportunities to use this gun now, and if he does, he may really have to deal with some monsters that can't be dealt with by conventional methods.
Victor's Apprenticeship, Chapter 3, Subsection 5, "The Three Elements of a Battle Mage's Battle", I. Protection; Second, movement or teleportation; And the last three: high-speed and effective attacks.
This magic electromagnetic gun, the bullet rate is absolutely high, as long as it is aimed, no one can dodge, and the most important thing is that its range is very exaggerated, as long as you can guarantee the ability of the gunner, it can even be shot into the soul from a few kilometers away, in terms of the strength of the strike against a single target, it is definitely an effective strike, anyway, Arthur is difficult to think of an object that can hold up its shot.
Next, Arthur had to consider the other two parts, the protection and movement of the Battle Mage.
According to the description in the book, the priority recommendation is the secondary offset force field, which has a good effect on curse system, elemental magic, entity attack and energy attack, especially energy attack, and the secondary offset force field can be almost 100% defensive.
But the question now is that Arthur is not a mage at all, where did he get the secondary offset force field?
As for movement in battle, mages generally use auxiliary spells such as wind and flight to distance themselves from each other, and even more, the space magic that mages can cast after reaching a high level: flash and short-distance teleportation, these are the most practical god-level spells on the battlefield.
With this, high-level mages have the confidence to stand up to any enemy.
But the question is, what did Arthur consider replacing the effects of these spells with?
