Chapter 392: The Shadow of Death (2)
"Your Royal Highness, this is a cross javelin, you see, at the head of the javelin, it is a wide javelin head of a cross, although it is very heavy and the range is not far enough, but it has a very effective suppression effect on the skeleton soldiers of the undead, and after it is thrown out, it can easily shatter the skeleton of the skeleton soldiers. Some obese quartermasters introduced with a smile.
After the identity was revealed last night, Dinoroni was escorted by the knights the next day, and although the presence of a prince on the front line of the war was a great inspiration to the soldiers, the knights did not want their prince to be too ostentatious in a place full of soldiers from various countries.
Then the quartermaster simply took Dinoroni to visit the station's armaments. For this kind of weapon, Di Noroni was the first time he had seen it, the long javelin structure, the head of the javelin was two crossed pieces of metal iron, which looked quite sharp, and there was a slightly protruding grip area in the middle of the javelin, he picked up this throwing weapon and found that the weight of the javelin here was much heavier than expected.
"Your Royal Highness, you may not know that the skeleton soldiers of the undead clan are very numerous, but they are all weak skeletons, so when archers and crossbowmen carry out long-range strikes, the effect is not particularly good, and only when they crush their heads can they completely kill these skeleton racks. The fat quartermaster said with a smile.
"What's that?" Dinoroni put down his javelin and looked at a row of densely packed wooden instruments.
"It's a small catapult, and it's also specifically designed to deal with these skeleton racks. You see, these rounded stones are placed in this position, and the strings are fastened, and it takes a little bit of strength, you have to step on it with your feet, and you have to use your hands to push it. The stones projected in this way can directly smash these skeleton shelves to pieces. The closer the distance, the more lethal it is. The quartermaster continued.
Dinoroni looked at the dense array of small catapults, imagining the countless soldiers controlling one each, constantly throwing cobblestones, smashing the skeleton soldiers to pieces, and couldn't help but feel some excitement in his heart.
The quartermaster patted these small catapults and said to him with a smile: "Your Royal Highness, these are just small meanings, not worth mentioning, the really powerful ones are ahead, please follow me." ”
Dinoroni's eyes lit up, and he followed the quartermaster's footsteps and walked towards the southern district, and soon, a group of people walked to the side of some big guys!
Looking at the huge things in front of him, Di Noroni gasped: "Is this a ballista?"
"Yes, my Royal Highness, this is a giant dragon crossbow! a super killer that has killed countless dragons!" the quartermaster's tone was a little excited.
Looking at the incomparably huge crossbow in front of him, Denoroni was so excited that his body almost trembled. He calmly walked over to the giant dragon crossbow and looked at it curiously.
The huge killing weapon was fixed to a large area of round stone mound poured with molten iron. The huge crossbow body is a complete giant tree trunk, and that extremely thick trunk looks like even three adults may not be able to hold it!
The wings of the giant dragon crossbow were unusually long, and the dozens of thick crossbow strings were as dark and shiny as long whips.
"Your Royal Highness, you see, this is the latest giant dragon crossbow that has been improved many times, the crossbow body is made of a whole piece of ironstone wood, this kind of wood, very hard, can withstand very large string forces, and the crossbow wings you see are also made of ironstone wood. There are a total of 22 crossbow strings on it, and when all 22 strings are tightened and wound, the giant bladed crossbow arrows that shoot out can destroy everything! Even a giant dragon can easily shoot through, and if it hits the head or neck, a single arrow can slay a dragon. The quartermaster said proudly.
"I've heard that there are hundreds of bone dragons in the undead this time, are these giant dragon crossbows for these bone dragons?" asked Denoroni excitedly.
"Yes, my Royal Highness. Giant dragon crossbows like this are all over the walls of the Empire, and there are dozens of them in each defensive area! There are thousands of them in total! Not to mention bone dragons, even if the legendary holy dragon appears, they can be shot into a sieve!" the quartermaster spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm to the ground with disdain.
De Noroni looked at the terrible dragon crossbow and his heart kept beating wildly. He could have imagined how devastating the steel arrow, which was as thick as an arm, could be wrought when it was fired.
"Look at these arrows, these sharp triangular arrows are all made of steel, the trunk of the arrows is made of iron, stone and wood, and the arrows are slender and hard enough!" the quartermaster grabbed an arrow and handed it to Dinoroni.
Taking over, Denoroni found that the weight of the arrow was much heavier than he had imagined, and after weighing it a few times, he threw it back to the quartermaster.
The quartermaster took the arrow, threw it back into the pile of arrows, clapped his hands and said: "Your Royal Highness, don't look at these giant dragon crossbows are fixed, but the flexibility is not bad at all, do you see these wheels under the crossbow body, although the core area of the crossbow body is firmly fixed on the iron and stone pile, but the tail of the crossbow body can be rotated along this iron and stone pile, and can also be raised and lowered. This allows for very accurate aimed kills. I bet those bone dragons couldn't even take a salvo. ”
Denoroni listened to him and tried to push the giant dragon crossbow, but the crossbow did not move.
"No, no, no, my Royal Highness, this giant dragon crossbow is not something we can push. You know, although there are wheels underneath, it also requires 10 strong men who have been blessed with 'bloodthirsty thaumaturgy' magic to pull it at the same time. The quartermaster hurriedly stepped forward to explain.
Dinoroni let go of his hand, smiled and said, "Of course, I know it must not be able to be pushed, I just want to try to see how heavy it is, haha, this is really heavy enough." ”
The quartermaster nodded repeatedly: "Of course, of course, when this giant dragon crossbow is in a state of war, it needs 15 strong men, 2 crossbowmen, and 1 intermediate mage." Of course, mages usually have 2 or even 3 giant dragon crossbows. In addition to the operation, there will also be a 25-member mixed class team to defend against targeted attacks!"
Dinoroni looked up at the magic spire in the distance, and couldn't help but ask, "What are those necromancers, how to deal with them?"
The quartermaster smiled: "Necromancer, it's not that easy, there are more than 10,000 mages on the Imperial Wall, there are thousands of high-level mages in it, such a powerful mage legion is not something these necromancers can resist at all, and it is said that those damned undead in the south have less than 100 necromancers." And now on the Imperial Wall, there are dense spaces to disturb the magic array, and these spaces to disturb the magic array can effectively prevent these necromancers from casting the spell 'teleportation' to throw those damn undead onto the Imperial Wall. So on the walls of the empire, it is absolutely safe. ”()
