Chapter 47: Magic Arrows

"Give!" Ryan handed the ten arrows in his hand to Colin with a look of anticipation, and the latter exclaimed, "Chief, have mercy on me, when will this nightmare end?"

Thomas said with a righteous face: "For our head, for the future of the empire, Colin, you should try it quickly."

Colin rolled his eyes and said to Thomas, "Idiot, you are so great, why don't you come." ”

"I guess, Colin. Thomas deliberately hit Colin and said, "But the head said, the magic array on the shafts of these bows and arrows is imitated from the white feather arrows of the cloak man, and it is best to try it with a short bow." ”

"I can lend you my short bow!" said Colin at once.

"Didn't you say that your weapons are like the women you love, and you never borrow them?" replied Thomas.

"Alright, alright. Just as Colin was about to continue, Ryan interrupted the prevarication between them and said directly to Colin: "I have improved a lot in the details this time, it shouldn't be a big problem!"

"But, the ......," said Colin, reluctantly, "you said so last time, and the arrow exploded before it left the bowstring." ”

"That was the last time, and it won't happen again!" Ryan reassured Colin.

Thomas, on the other hand, gloated, saying, "Yes, the words of the head must not be wrong." This time, it will definitely not explode just after leaving the bowstring, but directly on the bowstring!...... "Thomas immediately closed his mouth before he could finish his words, and covered his mouth firmly with his hand, because he saw the purple light on Ryan's hand, which was a sign that the magic missile had been prepared.

Colin didn't dare to say anything more, just looked at Ryan with a pleading face with his last hope, but Ryan didn't waver in the slightest. In desperation, Colin had no choice but to draw from the ten feathered arrows that Ryan handed him and put them on the string of his short bow, and as soon as Thomas saw Colin's action, he immediately screamed: "Wait a minute, wait until I find a hiding place before shooting!"

Thomas shouted for a while, but he didn't stop at his feet, and after a few steps he reached the trunk of a large tree, and he hid his body behind this thick tree, revealing only half of his face, and looked at Colin cautiously, no, to be exact, at the ten arrows in Colin's hand.

Ryan motioned to Colin with his hand not to grind, and the latter could only slowly pull away from the bowstring, while muttering in a voice that he couldn't hear himself: "Can't you do the experiment with another person, this is the 4th batch." ”

It's not to blame Colin for being timid, mainly because the finished product made by Ryan is not mature enough. Since Ryan defeated the Cloak Man, he began to study this skill through the magic array on the white feather arrows left by the Cloak Man, the Cloak Man's arrows were only blessed with some wind magic arrays, which could make these arrows fly faster and hit the target more easily, but for Ryan, this design was not very practical, and he preferred to be able to bless the magic on the shaft of the arrow like making a magic scroll.

This is indeed a little more difficult for Ryan, but anyway, Ryan and the others are rushing to Mochizuki City, and there is nothing to do along the way, so Ryan will use all the available time on the road to study and design as much as possible. The superposition of magic arrays learned from Victor, the skills of making magic items learned from Lille and York, and the basics of magic array making learned from the Elmida Magic Guild, and then Lane's own practice was slowly integrated by him, and the magic arrows conceived by Lane slowly turned from imagination into reality.

Ryan walked on the road for four days, and with today's batch, Ryan made a total of sixty arrows, but the fifty arrows made before all failed. There are various reasons for failure, some are because the magic array that Ryan blessed on the arrow did not take effect, and some are because the effect of the magic array is different from the previous one, but each failure will make Ryan gain a little experience in this area, and these experiences will also make the finished product made by Ryan better and better.

Of course, getting better and better also has a downside, that is, the arrows can explode like fireball scrolls, but this explosion is uncontrollable. Let's take the last time, Colin just released the bowstring, and the arrow on the shaft of the arrow that was blessed by Ryan's miniature fireball technique exploded on the spot, blowing Colin's hair into a fluffy black mass, although he was not injured, but Colin's psychological shock was too great, and he finally understood how those of Ryan's opponents felt when facing Ryan's magic.

Colin closed his eyes and took a deep breath, a technique he had learned from Ryan, and it was said that such a deep breath would quickly relieve the tension in his heart. Colin opened his eyes, only to feel that the tension in his heart had eased considerably, and he slowly pulled the bowstring of the short bow in his hand, aiming at the target about fifty meters away.

"Whoosh!" Colin let go of his bowstring, and the arrow, which had been blessed by Ryan's magic array, flew out immediately. According to Ryan's prior design, after this arrow is launched, the magic array above will be activated, and when the arrow hits the target, the additional fireball technique on the arrow shaft will explode, just like using a scroll, of course, during the experiment, Ryan compressed the power of this fireball technique to a minimum, so as not to accidentally injure his own people.

"Smack!" The arrow hit the target accurately, and the arrow went directly into the trunk of the tree, but there was no explosion effect that Ryan had envisioned.

"Alas, it failed, most likely because the wind magic array was not stable enough. Ryan shook his head and motioned for Colin to continue.

"No, no. Ryan looked at the second arrow that Colin fired, shook his head desperately, and said, "This is a failed piece, next!"

"Yes, it works well, and it's perfect if it doesn't explode in the middle of the flight. ”

"Oh, Colin, are you alright? I admit it's my fault, well, don't look at me so innocently, I'm human too, people make mistakes. Okay, I really don't know if it exploded as soon as it was placed on the bowstring, but I didn't inject much mana into it, well, you just have a little bit of a hairstyle, well, a little bit of alternative, hee-hee. ”

"Huh, why did this arrow break in the middle? Oh, it's probably because I destroyed the wooden arrow shaft too much when I was making the magic array. ”

......

Colin dusted his last arrow on the bowstring, praying desperately in his heart not to explode before it could be fired. Thomas looked at Colin with a sympathetic expression, he was really accurate just now, there was really an arrow that exploded when Colin pulled the bowstring hard, Colin's upper body was suddenly shrouded in a cloud of smoke, fortunately, these works of Ryan are deliberately compressed by power, otherwise Thomas will have no one to argue with in the future.

Colin focused on the bowstring made from the tendons of the Talon ox, watching the bowstring slowly stretch, and when the bowstring was pulled to the maximum, Colin breathed a sigh of relief, he closed his eyes, and released the bowstring.

"Whoosh!" the arrow flew out with a sharp whistling sound.

Colin opened one eye and secretly looked at the arrow he fired, but was surprised to find that it did not fly accurately to the distant target, because he closed his eyes when shooting, so the last arrow deviated from the trajectory, and it was very likely that it would miss anything, and it fell to the ground.

This discovery made Colin very embarrassed, he is one of the most elite archers of mankind, and now he is actually off target, is there anything more humiliating than this? Colin looked at the arrow with a crimson face, and opened his mouth with difficulty, wanting to explain a few words to Ryan, but before he could speak, he saw that when the arrow flew in mid-air, it suddenly tore open, and a hot flame burst out from the shaft of the arrow, almost instantly devouring the entire arrow.

"Boom!" A large flame appeared in front of everyone, and Ryan jumped up excitedly: "Great, successful!"

Everyone looked at Ryan with a strange look, but he didn't expect that he just relied on the items made by others, through his own research to make arrows with such power, the thought of this kind of arrow that looks like a fireball scroll exploded when flying towards the target, Colin and Thomas were excited, Ryan's finished product completely subverted the meaning of the shooter, he not only strengthened the power of the shooter's shooting, but also allowed the shooter to deal with multiple targets at the same time as much as possible.

Ryan himself was happy that now that he had actually made this arrow, it also meant that Colin and Thomas were able to do things that they couldn't do before in the heat of battle, giving more and more powerful threats to their comrades on the front lines. It's a pity that this kind of arrow needs to be made slowly by hand one by one, so the output is quite low, and Ryan and his party are in a hurry, so it is impossible to stop and make it on a large scale.

After another two days, while everyone was sitting around the campfire and enjoying dinner, Ryan solemnly handed over the three magic arrows he had made to Colin, which made Thomas, who was sitting next to Colin, very hot-eyed. After Ryan walked away, Thomas put his arm around Colin and whispered in his ear, "Three bottles of ale, exchange one with you." ”

Colin was in a good mood at this time, his efforts along the way had finally paid off, and he could see Thomas pleading in a low voice, how happy he was. After waiting for Thomas to say a lot of good things, Colin took the three arrows in his hand and said to Thomas, "These are arrows for bows and arrows, and you can't use your crossbow." ”

Thomas then remembered this, he first showed his middle finger to Colin, and then said loudly to Ryan, "Head, don't just give Colin, make me a few, right?"

Ryan shook his head slightly and said: "I originally copied the arrows of the bow and arrow, so I made a few for Colin first, and then I will think about how to bless these magic arrays on the crossbow arrows in a few days, your crossbow arrows are completely different from the length, thickness and even effect of his bow and arrows, and there are too many things that need to be improved." ”

"Oh. Thomas sat down disappointed.

"Oh, yes, Ryan. Allendo suddenly remembered something, and he said to Ryan, "Do you have any new discoveries of the cloak fragment I gave you?"
