Chapter 19: Dog-legged knives, two-handed swords
Since the establishment of the settlement, more than 100,000 survivors have been gathered.
The serious consumption of grain made the settlements with large grain storage at that time also miserable. And with the passage of time, the country officially dissolved, the world fell into the end times, and people's surnames also changed. At that time, some of the people in power who led the settlements began to shrink the food supply.
In this context, the term hunting emerged.
Hunting is not about hunting animals, but about hunting zombies, looking for food in their hands.
Countless unarmed people naturally cannot defeat the zombies, and the survivors have to use weapons to defeat the zombies. From the beginning of hunting, there was an additional booming industry in the settlement, which was manufacturing. In layman's terms...... In fact, it is a group of people who have a certain ability to build, creating all kinds of weapons for those who need them, in exchange for their living space.
And what Yang also saw was a group of people who built weapons.
There are many such groups, and there are many of them, scattered in several places on the shopping street.
Yang Yi took a look, and the weapons created here were mainly knives, using ordinary iron or steel, and it was almost impossible to see what special steel weapons were made.
In the last days, all the resources in the settlements are in the hands of those in power, and very little comes out. Yang also estimates that the steel used here is brought back by hunters and sold to them. In this case, it is not easy to get good metal.
Yang Yi tried to ask, "Can you order weapons here?" ”
Hearing Yang Yi's inquiry, he knew that it must be the buyer, and several young men were all excited: "Of course it can be ordered, in fact, most of the weapons we have here are pre-ordered first, and then created by our masters." ”
"Boss, come on...... Please take a look at our weapons. ”
Not to be said, Yang Yi was immediately overwhelmed by enthusiasm and walked in half-pushed and half-pulled.
One of the guys took a mountain knife and said, "Boss, look, this mountain knife has been thickened and lengthened by our master." And you can see that our cutting technology is definitely the only one in the settlement, sharp and durable. He grabbed a piece of arm-thick tree for testing, let out a loud shout, and slashed down diagonally with his sword.
Yang Yi's eyes widened, and with his sharp mountain opening knife, he cut down the arm-thick tree without much effort.
"It's really sharp!" Yang Yi took it and looked at the undamaged blade.
The fellow became proud, and said, "Of course, it doesn't look at what kind of steel we use, and our masters are also the first to be in the settlement, and the weapons created are of course the best." Boss, a good weapon, at a critical time, can play its due role, and a bad weapon ......"
The guy didn't say any more, the underlying meaning was understood by everyone.
Yang Yi smiled and returned the knife mountain to this guy, the mountain knife is good, but it is not suitable for himself.
Another guy picked out a dogleg knife from the weapon rack, which was a little dark red on it, and said, "Boss, this dogleg knife is definitely suitable for you." ”
More than one-fifth of the people in the colony, or all the hunters, use dog-leg knives.
The reason is simple, the dogleg knife is very suitable for slashing and slashing, and it proves to be the most ideal weapon against zombies. What Yang Yi used before was a dog-legged knife, which was very easy to use, not to mention light, with a sharp edge, it could easily cut the neck of a zombie.
There are disadvantages, the dogleg knife is generally only between 40-50 cm long, and you need to get close to the zombie to attack.
Zombies are a bit like the undead, maybe you cut it dozens of times, as long as it doesn't hit the vital point, it can still be alive. But people are different, as long as they are scratched by zombies, the crazy virus will infect the survivors, and finally become one of the hundreds of millions of zombies.
The so-called one inch short and one inch risk, that's what it says.
Yang Yi took it and played with a knife flower, feeling a little light, he asked, "Is there anything heavier?" ”
With the evolution of the clone to a new class, Yang Yi's strength has also increased, which also affirms the previous conjecture that some of the abilities of the clone can indeed be inherited from Yang Yi.
Don't look at Yang Yi's thinness, but his current strength is definitely much greater than that of a strong man.
The power is strong, like this dogleg knife is a little light, and Yang Yi doesn't feel very comfortable using it. Of course, what is really used is still the clone, and it needs to be reloaded. A dogleg knife like this, in the hands of a powerful person, must be heavy, sharp, hard and durable. And the handful in his hand, no matter which aspect, could not meet Yang Yi's requirements.
"Heavier?" The guy is also a little embarrassed, this dogleg knife has been lengthened and thickened, weighing about five catties, which is the most suitable specific gravity.
Yang Yi nodded and said, "If not, help me order two dog leg knives, well, the weight is about 10 catties, it needs to be thickened, but it doesn't need to be lengthened, just like this one, it's okay at 43 centimeters." ”
Like this kind of customized business, the guys here have long been very familiar with it, Yang Yiyi said, they immediately took out a pen and paper and recorded what Yang Yi said.
"Boss, no problem, what kind of steel are you going to choose? Depending on the steel grade, there will be some differences in price. Like custom-made, most of them are polished by hand, etc., and the price will be much higher. "A guy brought over a few pieces of steel and explained what they were.
In fact, under the modern process, all kinds of steel are very good steel, and any one can be used to make knives.
Yang didn't understand much of this, so he just pointed to one of them and said, "Just use this No. 42 steel." ”
The guy sneered: "Boss, your vision is really good." ”
This kind of customization is made of good steel, which is naturally expensive, and the price of two dogleg knives makes Yang Yi also heartbroken.
In fact, Yang will also choose a dogleg knife of this size, mainly because the doppelganger does not need to be afraid of being scratched by zombies. As a doppelganger zombie, you can generously approach and give the other party a knife and solve it directly. The so-called principle of one inch short and one inch of risk is not applicable to the division at all.
Yang also thought about it for a while, and felt that a dogleg knife alone was not perfect enough.
In the world of zombies, there are all kinds of evolved zombies, and their defensive capabilities, attack methods, and speed far exceed those of ordinary zombies. After all, even if the dogleg knife weighs 10 catties, it is still light and not powerful enough in the face of these evolved zombies.
Yang Yi looked at the weapon racks here, none of them matched the powerful.
After thinking about it for a while, Yang Yi thought of a sword, to be exact, a two-handed sword, a heavy cold weapon, about one and a half meters long and weighing up to thirty or forty kilograms.
With the power of a zombie clone, wielding and using such a heavy two-handed sword is not a problem.
When the guy heard Yang Yi's request, his first reaction was to stare at Yang Yi's hands and ask, "Boss, are you...... You're not kidding, are you? Thirty or forty kilograms, that's thirty or forty kilograms. He couldn't imagine how a thin person like Yang Yi could use such a heavy weapon.
Yang Yi just smiled, didn't explain, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, order it according to what I said, and then give me the price." ”
Now it's time for the customer to come first, the guy just shook his head and didn't say anything.
(Recommended ticket, there is more wood?) )
