"Twenty-five pounds, are you kidding?" Mo Xuan asked in surprise.

Mo Xuan still remembers being punished by the teacher when he was a child, holding his arms flat, just for a minute or two, Mo Xuan couldn't stand it, this crossbow weighing twenty-five pounds was simply torture for soldiers.

The weight of twenty-five catties is the weight of half a bag of noodles, although this is the world of magic and fighting spirit that has greatly developed by force, but after all, living beings still have the indicator of endurance. Barbarians like to fight the enemy with weapons weighing dozens or hundreds of pounds, but that doesn't mean that they also like to carry a crossbow weighing twenty-five pounds.

So this crossbow was completely substandard in Mo Xuan's opinion, even if its firepower had reached the level of an automatic weapon, it was too heavy.

Lu Sien was anxious when he heard this, and when he talked about the build, these guys were quite serious: "No, who would make such a joke with you." ”

"But it's so heavy that no one likes to carry it. Saying that, Mo Xuan activated the magic array on the crossbow in his hand, only to see the light flash, the magic array on the crossbow string was activated, and the tiny magic array on the crossbow string was also activated. The magic array depicted by Ge Qi for the above is a gravitational magic circle, and as soon as the two magic arrays are activated, they are like two opposite magnets that are opposite to each other, so that the crossbow strings are also ready.

Mo Xuan held the crossbow in his hand and looked around: "Take me to the shooting range, I want to test its power." Although he was hesitant about what Mo Xuan said just now, Lu Sien still took Mo Xuan to the shooting range.

"Tell me clearly, why doesn't anyone like to carry this crossbow? You look at its power, its feel, even a child can kill a swordsman with it. Lu Sien led the way while chattering to Mo Xuan, and he was still dissatisfied with Mo Xuan's evaluation.

"Well, I designed this crossbow, and of course I know what kind of power he has, but it's too far from what I imagined. Mo Xuan said absentmindedly while stroking the crossbow in his hand.

"Now, let's experiment here!" Lu Sien took Mo Xuan to a wide field, which was very wide, showing a rectangle two hundred meters long and fifty meters wide, and I don't know which guy used it to train bows and arrows, and there were several arrow targets on the field.

Mo Xuan's eyelids jumped after seeing it, although he was already a lord, and the land was still very wide, but Mo Xuan was influenced by the values of his previous life after all, and in his previous life, Mo Xuan was a small person at the bottom of society who couldn't even buy half a square meter for a month. Calmly suppressed the sense of disobedience in his heart, Mo Xuan was not angry for this shooting range, because this is not the same as the previous life, where there were few people and even the dead and the living grabbed the land, this place is vast and sparsely populated, as long as you have the ability to develop hundreds of acres of fertile land, it is even possible for the emperor to reward a lord when he is happy, of course, the premise is that you can hold this land in your own hands.

Aiming at the target two hundred meters away, holding the crossbow and looking at the sight, the human sight target formed a straight line, holding his hand firmly, Mo Xuan pulled the trigger, the crossbow string was released, the crossbow arm was released, and the powerful kinetic energy flew out with a crossbow arrow, Mo Xuan did not hesitate to start the magic array again, the bowstring was pulled back again, and the trigger was pulled and released.

The upper winding was released, the upper winding was released・・・・・・ one to one magazine was emptied, and Mo Xuan put down the crossbow in his hand without getting enough.

Mo Xuan calculated in his heart, from the beginning to now, it only took five seconds to empty a magazine, and there was a crossbow in one magazine, which means that two crossbow arrows could be fired per second.

It's far worse than the Vulcan Cannon, when can this thing have the firing speed of Gatling, Mo Xuan thought shamelessly.

"How, how. Lu Sien looked at Mo Xuan's expression and exclaimed proudly.

Mo Xuan didn't answer, turned around and walked towards the target, and when he got close to the target, he saw that there were three crossbow bolts stuck in the target, and the other seven were not far from the target

"Quite perfect. Mo Xuan praised. Two hundred meters is still a burst of fire, the surname of this crossbow can be quite good, after all, from the beginning of the design, Mo Xuan's idea of this crossbow is to drown the enemy with a large number of arrows, not a sniper rifle that can be accurate to a thousand meters away and hit the enemy's head.

"Then you ・・・・・・ just now. Lu Sien didn't point it out, but Mo Xuan knew what he was talking about.

Mo Xuan unloaded the magazine that had been perforated: "I said that there is a problem with this crossbow, that is, there is a problem, you see that I only shot a magazine in five seconds, and I must not carry ten magazines on me?"

Lu Sien nodded approvingly, but the doubts on his face were unresolved, and he waited for Mo Xuan's explanation.

"How much does a crossbow weigh?" Mo Xuan asked.

Lu Sien replied without hesitation: "This crossbow bolt is all steel, weighing one hundred and fifty grams. ”

Mo Xuan patted the crossbow in his hand, and then said seriously: "Look, one hundred and fifty grams, ten thousand five hundred grams, one hundred and fifteen kilograms, that is, thirty catties, well, and the magazine is also metal, counting one catty, then the crossbow and a set of arrows add up to sixty catties, of course, our soldiers can't go into battle bare-chested, they still have armor, close defense weapons, their own clothing, plus some other bits and pieces, he is at least carrying more than a hundred catties of weight, oh my God! How can this fight?"

Lu Sien thought about it, it was really inconvenient to carry such a heavy body on his body, and he couldn't help but show a look of chagrin.

In fact, Lu Sien was misled by Mo Xuan. In Mo Xuan's vision, if there were a small number of enemies, they would not be able to use so many crossbow arrows at all, and if there were a large number of enemies, then there would be baggage soldiers who specialized in transporting ammunition to transport ammunition for them, but so far Mo Xuan had not formed a baggage army.

However, what Mo Xuan said is right, this weapon is indeed very heavy, and it is cool to use, but it is also true that it is inconvenient to transport.

Lu Sien is the kind of person who pursues perfection, of course, only in building weapons, and he will already be thinking about how to reduce the weight.

Mo Xuan smiled slyly, in fact, this was the effect he wanted, Mo Xuan could easily figure out how to reduce the weight of the crossbow, for example: the crossbow body could be replaced with wood, or the crossbow body should be hollowed out, etc. But this will cause Lu Sien's dependence, these know is fine, if one day you don't know, what should you do, wouldn't it be very embarrassing. One shows people that I am an all-powerful image, but I can only say that I don't know that this subversive effect will bring a big blow to her prestige.

interrupted Lu Sien's thoughts, and patted Lu Sien's shoulder comfortingly: "Don't we have a lathe now?" Then make two hundred of these crossbows first, and I will use them." ”
