Chapter 8: Building a Hand Crossbow
After lunch, Lu Fan made another hoe and sent it to the village chief.
Unexpectedly, in just one afternoon, the news spread in the village.
The villagers brought their scrap metal and damaged farm tools to Lu Fan's house, hoping to exchange them for money or build new farm tools.
Lu Fan took a pen and paper on the side, wrote down their requirements and the number of copper coins they had prepaid one by one, and promised to send them over when they were ready.
It was busy until late afternoon before sending all the villagers away.
Lu Fan's current mana value has been used up, and he has not recovered yet, so he can't create things for the time being.
So, I'm thinking about how I can continue to upgrade in the future. Now he only knows how to kill slimes, but as a slime who is only level 1, no matter how many kills he has, he can't continue to level up. You have to hunt stronger and higher-level monsters, but how can you beat stronger monsters without increasing your combat power?
"Knock-"
Seeing someone knocking on the door again, it must be the last guest in the village, after all, this Buck Village is so big, dozens of families, all the people who should come in the afternoon are here, and there will be no need to build farm tools in the village for a long time in the future.
When I opened the door, I saw that it was an uncle dressed as a hunter.
Lufan recognized the man as one of the few hunters in Buck Village, Uncle Duke.
Lu Fan went up to greet him enthusiastically: "Uncle Duke, hello! Are you here to fix your equipment, too? ”
Uncle Duke unloaded his bow and arrows from his back, "Yes, little Lufan. Can you fix my bow and arrows for me? By the way, help me build 20 more arrows. ”
"Okay, no problem." Lu Fan agreed very happily, there is business to come to the door, how can there be a reason to refuse it?
"I don't have scrap iron to deduct, so I'll pay directly with copper coins." Uncle Duke pulled out his money bag and began to count the money.
Lu Fan understood, and immediately calculated: "2 bows and arrows need to be repaired, and a small amount of iron is needed, even if 20 copper coins are good; 30 repaired two-edged arrows, 30 copper coins; Recreate 20 arrows, 40 copper coins for normal two-edged arrows, 60 copper coins for three-edged arrows, 80 copper coins for four-edged arrows, and 100 copper coins for more penetrating spiral arrows. ”
Uncle Duke was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed: "It's great that you can actually build high-grade arrows here, in two days we are going to go out to round up a few low-level monsters, and we need to increase our lethality!" Well, help me craft 20 spiral arrows, a total of 150 copper coins, right? ”
After taking the money handed over by Uncle Duke, a total of 1 silver coin and 50 copper coins, Lu Fan was very happy, this was the first time he got a silver coin since he was reborn, and the purchasing power of 1 silver coin in this world is very strong!
"Okay, I'll rush to help you build it in the next two days, and you can come and pick it up on a cloudy night." Lu Fan swore a promise.
After sending Uncle Duke away, Lu Fan stared at the bow and arrow in his hand, and suddenly his eyes lit up!
That's right! I can use a bow and arrows, too! I was misled by the nature of slime physical attack immunity before.,Not all monsters are the same as slimes.,Most monsters are still not immune to physical attacks.。
So I only need to make some powerful arrows, and even I can kill level 2 monsters now!
Haha, finally found a way to continue upgrading, Lu Fan was excited.
Now not only can you level up, but even your parents can upgrade and become stronger!
Lu Fan looked at the attribute panel and found that the mana value had recovered a bit, and he could make some things.
No longer hesitating, Lu Fan picked up the recovered scrap iron and started a new forging.
Because Lu Fan didn't have the skills of an archer or a hunter, bows and arrows were still too difficult for him. However, in his previous life in the special forces, Lu Fan used a composite bow and crossbow and performed some special tasks.
Therefore, making a simple bow and crossbow can meet the needs of Lu Fan, who is now hunting low-level monsters.
After ten forges, Lu Fan was given an iron hand crossbow and 10 high-grade crossbow arrows.
To build your own weapons, of course, you have to use the best materials and designs.
Although the materials are limited, it is impossible to make high-end goods such as sniper crossbows, but the hand crossbow that has been improved by Lu Fan and is equipped with spiral crossbow arrows is also very powerful.
Lu Fan couldn't wait to take the crossbow and ran to the yard to find a target, and first try the accuracy and power.
Compared with bows and arrows, although the crossbow has a shorter range and less power, it is better than not requiring much arm strength and skill to use, and it can also have a good target, which is more suitable for other professions or ordinary people.
With the crossbow machine loaded, Lu Fan aimed at the ring target painted on the wall and pulled the trigger.
Whoosh –
Starting from ten meters, Lu Fan took two steps back with each arrow he shot.
It wasn't until the 10 crossbow arrows were shot that Lu Fan compared the number of crossbow arrows on the wall and the depth of the shot into the wall, and came to a conclusion:
Lu Fan Hand Crossbow No. 1
Effective range: 20 meters (no deviation within 10 meters, 5 cm deviation within 15 meters, 10 cm deviation at 20 meters)
Lethality: 1 inch for 10 meters into the wall, 6 points for 15 meters into the wall, and 3 points for 20 meters into the wall
Lu Fan is still quite satisfied with this result, this kind of damage can be dealt with level 3 monsters, right?
After a tiring day, Lu Fan quickly fell asleep and even snored.
It is very hard to constantly consume mana to use skills every day, and then use it up again after the mana is restored.
Early the next morning, as soon as Lu Fan saw that his magic power had recovered, he hurriedly made two more of the same hand crossbow and crossbow arrows.
Loufan called his father, Jack, and mother, Rose, and taught them how to use the crossbow and aim.
After a few simple exercises, his father Jack could only hit the target within 10 meters, while his mother Rose was more powerful, she could hit the target within 15 meters and hit the bullseye within 10.
It's that the mother's strength is not enough due to her profession, and it is more difficult to load the crossbow.
The appraiser's bonus points are: Strength 1, Health 1, Defense 1, Agility 1, Mana 1, and Balance Bonus points.
But Lu Fan also has a way, that is, let his father and mother stay together, form a team, his father is responsible for loading the crossbow, and his mother is responsible for aiming and shooting.
When his father and mother had almost practiced, Lu Fan said his intentions:
"Father, mother, I want to take you to the forest outside the village to hunt monsters to upgrade!".
Father Jack was shocked when he heard this, "Why are we going to hunt monsters?" It's so dangerous, how can we kill dead monsters! ”
Mother Rose seemed relatively calm, as if she had already guessed Lu Fan's purpose, "Jack, have you forgotten that we have crossbows?" With the power of the hand crossbow, as long as we are careful, it must not be too difficult to hunt some low-level monsters. ”
