Chapter 839: New Equipment
Early the next morning, the five people who couldn't sleep all night, plus the members of the Knicks team, set off with a small number of suits, and the airship of the Seagull Regiment also took off from the airport, slowly following them, heading northwest.
At this time, Edward was driving Noctis's car, Regaria, speeding on the way to the demon hunter's camp.
Early this morning, Sid called and asked Edward to come over and look at the blueprints for the new equipment of the First Legion and the Witcher Knights.
Regaria quickly disembarked at the northwest exit of the Insomonia Ring Road, and after driving for a while, he entered the empty Knights of the Demon Hunter Order, before Edward disembarked and made his way to the teleportation point in the middle of the camp and boarded the Demon Hunter.
"Come on, come and see, my design. At this moment, Sid just came out of his room and led Edward to the council chamber of the bridge, where several virtual design drawings appeared in one hand at once.
Edward smiled, just looking at Sid's hand, it showed that his embodied use of mana was perfect.
"You see, these are all standard equipment that I designed based on the armor technology of that Grauca, plus the technology of the Burning Corps left behind by Lady Haley. Sid dialed one of the virtual drawings in front of Edward and said, "This is a complete set of standard armor, some burly barbarians, as well as special races of Medusa and Harpys need to be re-sized, and ordinary humanoid soldiers can meet the size with the close-fitting function in the heavy armor." ”
"Let me introduce you to the functions of this heavy armor. A full set of heavy, medium, and light armor, collectively known as the "Sid Demon Hunter Armor", with heavy armor suitable for paladins, wild hunters, and barbarians, medium armor for rangers, scouts, mounts, and druids, and light armor for French troops in the rear. ”
"Due to the need to calculate the production cost, although it cannot be carried in the same way as Gramka, the function of 'backpack space compression' is adopted. Warriors can reduce weight by packing armor and weapons into their carry-on backpacks without going into battle, as well as snug and sweat-wicking functions, and the rangers' medium-sized armor uses a 'chameleon' system that can change color at any time. ”
"As for their defense, ordinary guns can't penetrate heavy armor, and medium and light armor is equipped with protective shields, and ordinary ammunition will be deflected when hit on it, and it can basically be harmless. ”
Edward looked carefully at the ornate silver-white armor, the sleek overlay armor that could be retracted, and the detached armor that matched the druid's transformation, and nodded his head in satisfaction. In particular, the disassembly and close-fitting function of this set of standard armor completely solves the problem of armor coverage when the druid transforms, as well as the size production problem of standard equipment.
"How did you solve the energy problem of this set of individual armor?" Edward asked after taking a closer look, "Whether it's space compression, or fitting and splitting functions, or shielding and color change, you need mana support, right?"
"Two sets of application methods. Sid stretched out two fingers and said with a smile, "In addition to the armor is equipped with independent refillable energy, which can support the armor's high-intensity operation all day and long-term backpack form, it is also equipped with a manual amplification crystal in critical moments, the latter of which allows soldiers to repair the armor with their own mana when the armor is severely damaged." Of course, this feature can only be done by the Holy Priest of Logistics in wartime with remote spellcasting, but after the war, the soldiers can do it themselves. ”
"Yes, really good, to be honest, much better than Legolas and Millhouse's design. Edward did not hesitate to compliment, "He is a legendary scientist." ”
"Of course. Sid was also not modest, lifted his chin proudly, and continued, "In addition to the armor, I also designed the combat uniform, which is suitable for soldiers to wear in peacetime, absolutely tough and comfortable. ”
As he spoke, Sid showed several sets of leather tight-fitting combat uniforms of different colors and said: "Only those who wear these combat uniforms can perfectly use the close-fitting function of the standard armor, but ordinary clothing is also okay, but sometimes it is a little ...... Under the weather. The Mage Glove is also included, and this white combat suit is the French one, and the Mage Glove has been strengthened. ”
"It's nothing, a soldier has to look like a soldier, I think they'll like these combat uniforms, it's better than always training in armor, right?"
"That's it!" Sid snapped his fingers with a smile, then dialed a few more virtual images and said, "Now I'll talk about weapons." ”
Edward looked at the drawings expectantly, and found that Sid's weapons were all strange-looking, including large heavy swords, war hammers, poleguns, and bows and arrows, but there were no one-handed weapons or shields.
Edward glanced at the smug Sid, knowing that he must have a reason for this design, and smiled and waited for him to explain.
"Edward, you should have noticed that there are no one-handed weapons and shields among the weapons I designed?" Sid pursed his lips when he saw that Edward didn't ask, and took the initiative to explain, "In the forward battalion of the Demon Hunter Knights, some people like to use two-handed weapons, and some people like to use sword shields or hammer shields, so I designed this heavy sword and war hammer. ”
Sid flicked on the virtual drawing, and the original two-handed heavy sword was suddenly disassembled, and many sharp serrations suddenly appeared on the blade, and then quickly shrank towards the hilt, forming an oval serrated shield.
"This standard two-handed sword can be split. If the use of a shield is not a preference, then the soldier can fold the shield and attach it to the body of the heavy sword, increasing the weight and strength of the sword. Conversely, the shield can also be split from the sword body to reduce the length and weight of the sword. ”
Sid demonstrated it again, snapping the serrated shield to the hilt, and the serrated shield covered the sword like a garment, making the long sword longer and wider.
Seeing this, Edward couldn't hide his admiration and applauded.
Sid laughed and demonstrated the dismantling process of the hammer again, and after receiving Edward's praise again, he dialed in the drawings for the remaining poleguns and bows.
Through Sid's introduction, these two weapons are also as sophisticated and convenient as ever. Among them, the long-handled weapon combines the functions of the long-handled weapon, the staff and the firearm through the disassembly of the parts, and is suitable for the French army, cavalry and air force. The Knights of the Demon Hunter not only have ranged attack and support, but also have a good melee combat with this long-handled weapon, allowing French troops to cast spells and engage in melee combat, and the Air Force and Cavalry can also use it to perform spell bombardments, spear stabs, and ranged firearms attacks in air combat and cavalry guerrilla with one hand.
And that strange bow and arrow, which is the Ranger's main weapon, can be split into two long daggers, and can also be turned into a whip sword again, and it is also very powerful.
Not only that, but on all weapons, Sid was equipped with an amplification crystal, which allowed all soldiers to cast spells with this weapon, which made Edward breathtaking.
