The reason why the power of the Faro dwarven musket is so bad is because it is a product made according to the Faro standard, and it is naturally powerless against the shield and armor of the Norland standard, just like the strong man of Farrow is nothing in front of the strong man of the same level as Norland. If it is modified according to the Norland defense equipment as a reference standard, and can reach the corresponding level of attack power of Faro, it will be promising.

But he was not a utopian and immediately began to ponder the details, only to find more and more problems. For example, the magic effect of the projectile, the manufacturing process of the musket, the characteristics of gunpowder, and even how to develop the magical abilities associated with the spark. If you think about it in detail, the manufacturing process of the musket can be subdivided into hundreds of details such as casting, polishing, and machine design.

In order to reduce the overall cost, many manufacturing problems need to be overcome. Otherwise, it would indeed take a master alchemist three years to make a musket that would indeed reach an epic level, but lose its original meaning.

Seeing Neris's expression, Richard smiled and said, "This is not a job that can be completed in a while. I reckon it would be nice to be able to make progress in five years. However, we are now ready to prepare. I think a unit with improved muskets and a number of five thousand or even ten thousand will definitely help you a lot in your points. ”

Nereus's eyes lit up at once.

"Alright, let's get down to business! I need a batch of magic books recently, here's the list, can you help me find a way to collect them?"

Nereus took the list and glanced at it, seeing that it was full of basic books on magic arrays and construction knowledge, all of which could be found in the royal library, so he nodded and said, "It's a trivial matter, but it may take a few days to make a copy." But you won't need any of this for a long time, my Holy Constructor!"

"It's not for me, it's for Luoqi to see. Richard told the truth.

"Luoqi!" Nereus was taken aback, looked at the book list again, his face became very strange, he looked deeply at Richard, and said, "Does Luoqi have the talent of a constructor?"

Richard nodded, and said, "Sometimes the so-called talent can also be accumulated through accumulation and hard work, and I don't know how far she can go in the end, but it's okay to become an ordinary constructor." ”

Nereus shook his head again and again, sighed, and said, "You have picked up a treasure!

Richard laughed and said, "No way, I'm just lucky!"

"Phew!" Nereus took a heavy sip, how charming he looked.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Richard and said, "Listen to me, Rocky is now friends with me and Agamemnon!

"You're already friends with Lotsy, and I haven't seen you talk to each other!" asked Richard curiously.

"That's when she could become a constructor. I've known her for a long time!" Neres replied so confidently that Richard couldn't stop laughing.

"Then why aren't you going to let me go?" Richard began to provoke.

Nereus was amazed and asked suspiciously, "Do you want to fight me?"

"That's what I mean!" said Richard with a smile.

Nereus covered his face with his hands, looked very unbearable, and said, "I really can't bear to bully you as a magician! I can't do such a thing! It's so cruel! Come on, take my guy!"

Before Richard could say anything, Nereus said again: "That's it, I'll only use the twelfth-level fighting spirit to deal with you!

Richard's mouth was open, unable to utter a word. Seeing Nereus standing with his sword upright, but only standing ten meters away from him, he was even more speechless.

This distance is within the blink of an eye with Neris's ability, and Richard only has instantaneous magic at his disposal. The default unspoken rule for a decisive battle with a mage is to keep a distance of thirty meters, and with the mage ready, Nereth obviously doesn't plan to follow the rules. Moreover, this guy was originally level seventeen, and his combat skills were far above the level of fighting energy, and how much he used his fighting spirit actually did not have much impact on his combat effectiveness.

"Are you still planning to attack?" said Richard sarcastically.

"How is this possible!, of course, you have to do it first!" said Nereus, so righteously that Richard wanted to twist his face hard. Well, it seems that the face is twisted up, and the feel is not worse than Luoqi.

Richard stopped talking nonsense with him and drew his knife in hand. This time he was carrying the Nameless Elf Long Knife, after being warmed by the Tree of Life, although the Elf Long Knife did not add new attributes, it was more light and agile, and the whole knife showed a kind of vitality. Richard was particularly handy with it.

Richard pointed his long knife at the sky, and a ray of lightning immediately appeared on the tip of the knife. The lightning spilled out, and instead of flying towards Nereus, it struck Richard! The lightning divided into five paths, striking Richard in five places, and Richard's body was immediately surrounded by wisps of lightning, like a god descending from the earth.

Nereus looked at the strange smile on Richard's lips, and then at the appearance of him almost standing out of thin air, and his heart suddenly felt uneasy. He didn't say a word, he rushed forward, and the whole person instantly pulled out a string of afterimages, and the blade of the sword stabbed Richard! As soon as he made a move, he had already exerted all his strength!

Neres had already judged Richard to dodge, and then began to devise a plan for the pursuit in his mind. With his combat skills, any magician who is entangled by him in close quarters can only hate him on the spot.

With a soft sound, Nereth's sword was held up by Richard's long knife, and the power coming from the sword surprised Neres! He knew very well that Richard had no talent for strength, and although the dark blue mage was famously strong, he was definitely not strong enough to compete with him head-on. But the power of this sword is at least equivalent to the strength of a twelfth-level warrior!

Nereis didn't expect that his full sword would be blocked by Richard head-on, and he almost instinctively urged a stronger fighting spirit, and for a while, he used too much force, and all his back moves were useless. When his body was stagnant, Richard held the knife in both hands, the lightning flashed on his arms, and the long knife flipped over, with a strong wind, swept Nereus's waist and ribs!

The speed and ruthlessness of this knife surprised Nereus again, he didn't have enough strength at all, so he could only put the long sword up and hastily put down Richard's knife!

Now both sides are equivalent to the twelfth level of combat power, but Richard slashed with all his strength, Nereis hurriedly parried, and with both hands against one hand, as a result, Nereis stumbled and was swept away by Richard for several meters.

Richard made a gesture in the void with his left hand, and instantly accelerated on himself, and then calmly raised his knife to chase Neres. Nereus had a chance to breathe, and his feet slipped and flashed ten meters away. However, Richard chased after him, and under the effect of the acceleration technique, Nereus lost even his speed advantage.

Nereus was taken aback again, and when he saw Richard's vicious slash, he had to put his sword on the blade, trying to use his sword skills to deflect Richard's long knife. Unexpectedly, Richard's long knife suddenly shook, collided with Nereus's long sword, and fought fiercely.

After a knife, Richard let out a long roar, and the electric light surged all around him, and the long knife slashed towards Nereis like a storm, each knife was fast and heavy, without any tricks, and it killed Nereus sweating! Nereis felt that as long as he showed a flaw, he would be immediately caught and attacked by Richard, and any false tricks and illusions were useless. He had to use all his strength, relying on his keen sense, to barely block Richard's insane attack.

Nereus didn't notice that Richard's eyes were shooting a faint light at the moment, and with his talent for analysis, he had almost nothing to hide. Through the change in the direction of his fighting qi, Richard could almost determine his next move, and naturally he could give a head-on blow.

However, Nereus's combat skills and combat awareness are the best choice, although he is at an absolute disadvantage, the long sword is still erratic, and it is difficult to defend, but the defense line has never been breached.

However, the next development of the battle made Nereth almost scold! Richard maintained a stormy offensive while constantly using instantaneous magic to bless himself and harass Neres. When Nereus hung on the fourth negative status, he felt like he was going to collapse if he held on for a few more moments!

But Nereus forgot that he had been thinking about how to ravage a mage before the war.

When Richard blessed himself with a magic shield, Nereus was still wondering why Richard blessed himself with a magic shield that was strong enough to defend against level 5 in an instant, he didn't know how to use magic at all.

However, Nereus was so clever and quick to react that his cold hairs immediately stood on end, and he cried out in a lost voice: "Richard!

Richard was sure that he was going to blast with area magic next, and that magic shield was not against Neris, but against his own magic. Sure enough, the long knife in Richard's right hand was still slashing wildly, and there was already a floating dark red fireball in the palm of his left hand, and Neres didn't even notice when he had finished preparing for the magic. Richard didn't say a word, and directly smashed the fireball at Neres' feet!

With a strange scream, Nereus fled backwards with a somersault. Richard's fireball looked very strange, and experience told him that it was better not to touch it.

The fireball burst and turned into a thick, sticky fire. The fire was dark red and gray black, and the speed was not very fast, but the destructive aura hidden in it made Nerith's heart tremble. When he saw that the spilled flames would stick to anything they touched, and then burn non-stop, he couldn't help but secretly shout in his heart that he was lucky. If you treat it as an ordinary fireball, if you want to rely on your fighting spirit to resist, it will be completely finished, the twelfth-level fighting qi will definitely be crushed with one blow under this kind of magic flame, if he is forced out of the seventeenth-level fighting qi, it will definitely be considered a loss, and the loss will be very ugly.

However, when Neres fled, Richard walked straight through the fire, and the magic shield on his body was shattered after a few flashes, but he also managed to pass through the fireball area and come to Neres.

Richard's left hand was raised again, and Nereus didn't even have the strength to curse this time, and immediately seized the gap in Richard's magic to dodge. However, Richard burst forward even faster than he did, kicking Nereth in the butt and knocking him to the ground, slapping the knife on the side of his neck and retracting it.
