Chapter 181: Mounts and Weapons
The final blow was given to the puppet spirit, who was obviously much more professional in his movements than Wang Qi. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info saw that it used a three-foot-long bone spur to pierce through a cavity behind the ear of the undead lion, which was said to ensure the integrity of the opponent's corpse to the greatest extent.
The next time is the time for the puppet spirit, which began to take out the large number of bones collected along the way, and then processed them in its own unique way.
According to the puppet, making an undead golem or mount is roughly divided into three steps. The first step is refining, refining the collected bones into suitable materials. Skin, flesh and scale, repeatedly compressed and trimmed, improve strength and durability; The bones are broken down and refined into bone spirit essence, which is then reshaped.
The second step is assembly, where the finished parts of the material are combined into a complete form. The third step is a unique ability for scavengers, who can actively gather necromantic energy in the air to form new soul fire energy, and then fill the golem's driving core, causing them to regain life.
In general, assembling and conjuring spirits is a technical task, but it is not time-consuming, and it is the first step of refining that takes the most time. Although it is a boring thing without much technical content, it is a water grinding work, and it can't be fast if you want to.
Wang Qi stood bored and helped the puppet spirit to keep watch, but after a while, he noticed a problem. The way the puppet spirit extracted the bone spirit essence did not seem to be ideal.
Like refining skin and flesh, it is a mass of solution-like objects that spew out of its own mouth, wrap the bones to be refined, and then wear and compress them little by little, the impurities will be squeezed out, and what is left is the most primitive bone spirit essence.
This process was very slow, and Wang Qi noticed that the purity of the bone spirit essence it refined was not high, and it was at least one level different from the material of the bone spirit armor on his body.
"Wait a minute!"
Wang Qi stretched out his hand to stop the puppet spirit's movements. The Golem looked back at him suspiciously, and although it had now surrendered to Wang Qi, it still didn't like to be interrupted in the process of crafting the Undead Mount.
"You only need to process the skin and flesh and scale armor materials, let me do the work of extracting the essence of the bone spirit."
Wang Qi walked to the puppet spirit and squatted down, the puppet spirit opened its mouth, it didn't seem to believe that Wang Qi also had the ability to extract the essence of the bone spirit, but when its eyes swept to the bone spirit armor on Wang Qi's body, it was stunned for a moment, and seemed to understand something.
The intermediate bone spirit control, the speed and quality of extracting the bone spirit essence are much faster than before. Although it would be troublesome to make an undead mount in the way recorded in the Code of Natural Calamity, if it is just a simple extraction of materials and a simple stereotype, Wang Qi can easily come by hand.
With one hand, the bone spirit control was activated, and the bones scattered on the ground immediately dissipated as quickly as weathered, and in the palms of Wang Qi's hands, crystal bone spirit beads soon appeared.
"See, does it work?"
Wang Qi threw a few bone spirit beads into the hands of the stunned puppet spirit, and the puppet spirit brought the bone spirit beads to his eyes to observe them carefully, and put them in his mouth to taste them, and then spit them out, and said to Wang Qi in an incredible tone:
"My lord, I am amazed by your skills, the purity of these bone spirit essences is quite high, if we use this material to make a mount, I guarantee that the final product will be at least twice as powerful as we expected!"
The skeleton is the foundation, and the flesh is just an auxiliary attached to it. The better the material from which the skeleton is made, the higher the quality of the finished product. This reason is very simple, and Wang Qi is also full of joy after hearing it.
It's just that according to Wang Qi's refining method, the bone raw materials consumed will also increase a lot. Originally, Wang Qi thought that he would have to work hard again to hunt a few high-level beast undead. But who knew that when he was exercising his bone spirit control on the corpse of the stitching monster, the huge turtle shell on the back of the corpse actually decomposed and converged into his palm.
Moreover, the bone spirit beads produced by this turtle shell are actually more than the bones of the undead lion!
This time, not only is there no shortage of materials, but the amount of bone spirit essence is still enough to spare. Seeing that the puppet spirit was still busy with a pile of skin and flesh materials for a while, Wang Qi took the extra bone spirit essence and walked to the other side.
He wants to take advantage of this opportunity to refine a weapon suitable for riding for himself!
The main body of the bone spirit armor on the body has been gathered, and some special structures are not in a hurry. In normal foot combat, he uses his gauntlets to transform various short blades to attack, but when he is mounted on a mount, such a short weapon is very inappropriate.
And strictly speaking, there are still subtle differences between the materials used to make armor and special weapons, although weapons deformed by armor are usually easy to use, but if they really encounter a strong enemy, these small differences are likely to determine the important weight of a battle.
Summoning the Code of Natural Disasters and turning to the illustrated book that recorded various weapons, Wang Qi picked it up while recalling the standard long knives used by the Death Knights he had seen in the illusion.
To be honest, the long knife does have its advantages when it is used as the standard equipment of the Death Knight, and the way the Death Knight fights is slightly different from the battle of the ancient knights in the real world. Although they can also use the impact of their mounts to surprise enemies, they are more adept at fighting with small areas of agility.
Because ordinary knights, no matter how well they cooperate with their mounts, knights and mounts are always two different individuals. Unlike the Death Knights, their mounts are part of their body, and like armor and weapons, they are special equipment that can be used freely.
Therefore, their weapons not only need to be assaulted, but also to slash and grapple. As a result, weapons such as spears, halberds, and spears are less lethal in melee combat.
Unlike those standard long knives, the distance between the blade and the shaft reaches a ratio of 1:1, and it can be used as a spear to assassinate at a long distance, but after closing the distance, the huge blade can be swung and easily cut the enemy in front of it to pieces.
Of course, if a weapon of this shape is put into human society, it is almost unscientific. An excessively long blade can make the weight and balance of the weapon difficult to grasp. But the Death Knight had no such concerns, and the strength and perfect coordination of the mount allowed him to completely ignore these flaws.
Closing the Code of Natural Disasters, Wang Qi finally made up his mind to build a giant long knife himself, but unlike in the illusion, the long knives of those death knights are usually in the shape of a scimitar, and the long knife he wants to make has a more national cultural flavor, in short, it is - a three-pointed two-sided knife!
