Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Power of the Ballista
Lin An and the two picked out the two most suitable armors and put them on.
Zhang Yize easily put all the remaining Heihe armor into his backpack.
"This ...... There are ten sets in this batch. Ren Dehai saw that the battle armor that the dwarf craftsman had just moved over was all gone, and said weakly.
"yes, I still haven't come yet."
Ren Dehai opened his mouth, he had just seen that there were only seven black-scaled shield soldiers brought by Zhang Yize.
Now it's hard to get the extra armor back, so you can only stare at the dwarven craftsmen who moved the armor.
The dwarf craftsman also looked aggrieved, and Ren Dehai said that he was moving a batch, but he didn't say how many.
Zhang Yize coughed lightly and asked Ren Dehai to turn his head: "The battle armor is here, how is the construction of the giant ballista?" ”
"The first one is almost finished, come with me to see it!"
The displeasure on Ren Dehai's face was swept away, and he walked towards the forge with Zhang Yize.
"I've seen bows and crossbows, and I've never seen such a delicate psionic inscription, so I've made some of them."
Zhang Yize followed him into the forging room, where two sweaty dwarven craftsmen were assembling the giant ballista.
The base of the ballista is more than three meters, and the height of the head is more than one and a half meters, which does not look like a weapon that can take the initiative at all.
The power is an enlarged version of the crossbow, but the special crossbow arrows placed aside are the thickness of a small arm, and there is a strange inscription engraved on it, and at the end of the arrowhead, there is a simple golden crow pattern.
"This ballista is not difficult to make, but these inscriptions must be engraved little by little against the drawings."
"Although I haven't seen it, it should be a psionic inscription, and I don't dare to reduce it, so I move a little slower."
Speaking of equipment, Ren Dehai said: "And in order to enhance the power, I replaced the bowstring with the tendon of the second-order fierce beast swordfish!" ”
"It took three to screw it together, and it was worth one power stone!"
"Oh?" Zhang Yize curiously touched the bowstring of the ballista, but saw a line of prompts in front of him.
[Water, with metal arrows to get a 10% attack bonus.] 】
"Is that okay? Jin Shengshui? Zhang Yize touched the bowstring, and sure enough, it gave people a feeling of moisture.
Seeing that Zhang Yize was very satisfied with this bowstring, Ren Dehai came over again and introduced: "The most suitable thing for this swordfish tendon is the bowstring, which is strong and durable, and there is no wear and tear after being used thousands of times." ”
"You're bothered." Zhang Yize replied casually, and brought the arrow with the thickness of his forearm in front of him.
The arrows are engraved with psionic inscriptions, and the arrows are made of stainless steel, which is powerful enough to penetrate all defenses.
It's a pity that Zhang Yize didn't receive the corresponding prompt, and it seems that the special effects made by the five elements were not triggered.
"What if you made arrows out of metal?" Zhang Yize turned his head and asked Ren Dehai.
Ren Dehai laughed when he heard this: "Brother, you are a layman, how can you use metal to make arrows." ”
"This ballista arrow is heavy enough, if it is made of metal, I am afraid that it will not be able to fly, let alone maintain balance and concentrate on the target."
"Yes." Zhang Yize nodded, the metal arrows were indeed a bit whimsical.
"What kind of arrow is metal?"
Zhang Yize fell into thought, like the giant ballista, the attributes of the five elements should be determined according to one or more parts of the instrument.
For example, the bowstring of a ballista, the ...... of arrows Arrowhead?
But the arrows were originally metal, Zhang Yize's eyes swept over the arrows, and finally stopped on those inscriptions.
Ballista arrows were originally just arrows, but they were called ballistas because these inscriptions poured energy and caused an explosion when attacking.
These inscriptions are also considered to be one of the important components of arrows.
"Then paint the inscriptions with gold dust." Zhang Yize turned his head and said.
"Huh?" Ren Dehai hadn't reacted to Zhang Yize's brain circuit.
"What? No gold dust? ”
"Yes, yes, but what's the point......
"Just do it, look at this golden crow, you can only come back to life by applying gold dust!"
Han Yu didn't explain so much, just asked Ren Dehai to do it.
"Okay." After all, in the comparison of strength, Zhang Yize still has more right to speak.
Soon, a craftsman came over with gold dust and smeared the inscription on the arrow according to Zhang Yize's prompt.
At the end of the arrowhead, the pattern of the golden crow becomes more dazzling and vivid.
Zhang Yize tried to pick up the arrow again, and sure enough, he saw the desired result.
【Ballista Arrows, Metal】
There is only a brief introduction, and the chain made by the five elements is broken when it arrives here.
"Yes, move out and test shoot." Zhang Yize was also inexplicably excited when he saw that the requirements for the manufacturing of the five elements had finally been triggered.
The furnace and other buildings have not yet been built, and this ballista is the first test item for the Five Elements Crafting Tech Tree.
Soon, the ballista was moved to a wooden base and pushed to the gate of Ren Dehai, with the muzzle facing the outside of the city.
Zhang Yize looked at Ren Dehai, who reluctantly took out an energy stone and stuffed it into the energy core of the giant ballista.
"Wind!" Zhang Yize ordered, and the two dwarven craftsmen began to work together to turn the winches on both sides, pulling the bowstrings with extreme effort.
Lin An looked anxious, and pushed the dwarf craftsman away: "I'll come!" ”
Lin An was dressed in the Black River battle armor, but his movements were not bulky at all, and with one arm, the winch of the giant ballista quickly pulled to the first gear, the bowstring was taut, and there were water droplets oozing out of it.
"Arrows!" Lin An took the crossbow arrow with the thickness of his forearm from the dwarven craftsman next to him and carefully put it into the string.
As soon as the bolt and the ballista came into contact, the power stone glowed faintly, and the pure energy flowed into the golden inscription of the arrow.
The aura of danger spread around the ballista, and the dwarven craftsman standing next to him only felt his hairs stand on end.
"Aim for that big tree." Zhang Yize pointed to a hugging tree 100 meters away.
If he wants to aim, Lin An is a little powerless
Wei Tu stepped forward and took Lin An's place: "I'll determine the position." ”
After speaking, his eyes locked on the big tree, and began to turn the winch of the ballista to adjust the accuracy.
"My lord, the direction is calibrated!"
"Put!"
As soon as Wei Tu stepped on the machine under his feet, there was a thud, and the crossbow bolt went off the string.
The people standing next to the ballista only felt the strong wind blowing on their faces, and subconsciously raised their hands to cover their faces.
The heavy crossbow bolts were extremely fast under the huge thrust and even caused a wind whirlpool.
In less than half a second, only a roar was heard.
The crossbow bolt collided with the surrounding tree designated by Zhang Yize.
The explosion from the ballista shattered the trunk of the tree, and the sawdust and the remaining canopy were thrown high.
The roots of the tree were also tossed by the violent explosion, leaving only a huge deep crater.
"This ......" Ren Dehai was just blinded by the strong wind of the crossbow arrows, and when he opened it, he saw this terrifying scene: "This is a crossbow?" Is this a crossbow bolt? It's more powerful than artillery! ”
"That's why it's called a ballista, not a ballista." Zhang smiled, extremely satisfied with the power of the ballista.
With the power of this cannon, the first-order creatures of the low star are afraid that they will die directly, and the cursed cats that gather together will ...... If it continues, I am afraid that it will kill and injure a group.
If the winches on both sides are running at the same time, adjust to heavy artillery mode...... I'm afraid that it can kill creatures below the second order with a single shot.
