Chapter 217: Jamming Bombs
At 11 o'clock, the big housekeeper of Sully came over on time to remind that the teaching time was over.
After studying hard for several hours, Duke stretched his waist and said goodbye to Mr. Sukhtara before returning to Tower 2.
At the same time, he also noticed Xiaoyi's previous reminder.
"Hmm, Sand Eagle 1.52 Special Effect Bullet - Elemental Edition, finally broke through the difficulties and successfully developed it!" Duke rejoiced.
Can't wait to get to the castle walls.
Then began to experiment with the power of the new version of the Sand Eagle, compared to the Sand Eagle 1.51 Special Effect Bullet - Physical Version, you can only switch between empty bullets, shotguns, and armor-piercing bullets, this time the Sand Eagle 1.52 Special Effect Bullet - Element Edition, there are more bullet types that can be switched.
"Let's start with a flame bomb!" Duke turned on Sand Hawk's tactical lamp, illuminating a bush in the distance.
The trigger is then pulled.
With a pop, a bullet crashed into the bushes, and in an instant a ball of fire exploded and rose, engulfing the entire bushes.
"Whew!" Duke's eyes lit up, "The power of this flame bomb is generally the standard level of the 1-ring fire arcane, but it can be released at the moment of impact, and the suddenness and lethality far exceed the standard of the 1-ring arcane." ”
Most arcane arts, from condensation to release, to hitting the target, have a process.
The Flame Bomb does not have this process, and the place where the bullet hits is the location where the Elemental Arcane is released, as if it were instantaneous.
By this time the bushes were already in flames.
Quickly guided by his thoughts, Duke switched the Sand Hawk to a new elemental bullet: "Another Freezing Bomb, try the effect!" ”
Poof.
As he pulled the trigger, the bullet was already in flames, and Duke felt his eyes glaze out.
The flames had switched to an ice sculpture.
Among the ice sculptures, the charred black appearance of the burned bushes can be seen, shining under the illumination of tactical lights.
"Again, Lightning Bullet!" Duke thought about switching to a new bullet and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Powerful lightning erupted suddenly on the surface of the large ice sculpture, directly shattering the entire ice sculpture, and the ice cubes fell to the ground and then dissipated.
The matter condensed by the arcane is not the real substance, but a mimesis that dissipates as the arcane dissipates.
"The power is okay, try the golden gun bullet again!"
With Duke's thoughts, after the trigger was pulled, a new elemental bullet was fired, and when it hit the clearing, it suddenly turned into a spear with a metallic luster, like a javelin, and disappeared directly into the ground.
"I can't see the effect, but it's bluffing." Duke shook his head and pulled the trigger again, this time switching to a fifth elemental bullet.
Homing bombs.
When this bullet was fired from the muzzle, it was the most basic bullet of an ordinary sand eagle, but in the process of the bullet flying, it suddenly turned in a big circle.
Straight back around.
Bang!
Shooting on the rock of the city wall, a special rock mixed with spiritual gold will be drilled directly into a large hole.
"This is good!" Duke was overjoyed, and his mind directly came to a commotion, and after switching to an armor-piercing bullet, he blessed the tracking bullet.
Homing bullets are elemental bullets of the wind elemental nature, and are not pure elemental bullets like flame bullets, freezing bullets, lightning bullets, and golden bullets. Rather, it is a stacking form that can be used to stack a physical bullet with an air elemental effect.
Therefore, ordinary bullets can be stacked with homing bullets, as well as empty bullets, shotguns, and armor-piercing bullets.
Poof!
The armor-piercing bullet erupted with strong recoil, but Duke had already been promoted to the 1st Ring Great Knight, and with the blessing of his fighting spirit, his hands were as steady as Mount Tai, and he was not affected by the recoil in the slightest.
The next moment.
Under the guidance of Duke's mind at the critical moment, the armor-piercing projectile, which was originally fired in a straight line, made a big turn when it could not be fired, directly bypassed the front of the first big tree of the target, and then hit another big tree a few meters away.
Bang!
The tree fell.
Earth-type Golden Bullets, Water-type Freezing Bullets, Fire-type Flame Bullets, Wind Tracking, and Thunder-type Lightning Bullets.
There are five of the seven basic elements.
There are also bullets corresponding to the two elemental attributes of light attribute and dark attribute, and Duke continued to switch his mind unhurriedly.
And took out an arcane card, which activated the arcane card first.
Rumble!
A long knife of great flames sliced through the night.
Duke pulled the trigger the moment the 1st Ring Arcane-Flame Knife was released, and a bullet shot out like a laser hit the Flame Knife.
In the next second, the flame knife disintegrated, as if it had never appeared.
"Perfect!" Duke laughed, "Not to mention the power of this laser projectile, it is definitely far ahead in arcane defense!" ”
The laser bullet just now was a light attribute element bullet.
Elements of light attribute are not capable of emitting light, but rely on overactive elemental particles to decompose the formed arcane.
Earth can be transformed into gold, and water can be transformed into ice...... The light element can be transformed into a space-time element, and in the arcane system, the light element is difficult to bind, so there are few light attribute arcane.
Once it exists, it is a high-level arcane that destroys the world and destroys the world.
But now, with the help of Sand Eagle's bullets, Duke has added the light element to it, and there is no need to deliberately outline it as an arcane, but only needs to exert the attribute effect of the light element to cast a powerful laser projectile.
"See if the 2-ring arcane can be defended!"
Thinking of this, Duke took out another 2-ring arcane card, the Great Wind Wheel.
After excitation, a huge wind wheel is formed, and because Duke did not choose a target, the wind wheel hovers in the air.
Poof!
Raise your hand and it's a laser bullet.
The Great Wind Wheel went out in response, and in mid-air illuminated by the tactical lamp, there was nothing, and the 2-ring arcane disappeared without a trace.
"Cool!"
Duke felt invincible: "I don't have a 3-ring arcane card on me, I'll go back and get it, and then see if the 3-ring arcane can be defended!" ”
Each of the 3-ring Arcane Cards is worth a fortune, and Duke doesn't have a few.
When he returned, he quickly brought with him an arcane recursion card that he had renovated before, which used to be one of his hole cards, but now it doesn't matter.
When activated, the arcane formed a cage that enveloped a large tree in front of it.
Duke fired a laser shot straight at him, but this time, the arcane recoils didn't dissipate, just a little wave, and the light dimmed slightly.
Puff puff......
Duke fired eight shots in a row, counting the one shot just now, which was enough to wipe out the laser shells of a pair of magazines, but it also failed to dispel the arcane return.
The only consolation is that the light of the arcane return has also dimmed to the limit, and it is clear that the laser projectile still has an effect.
After changing the magazine and firing the second shot, the arcane cage was finally broken and dissipated.
"Hmm, the upper limit of the laser bullet has been touched, 2 rings and below the arcane, one shot, 3 rings and above the arcane has to strafe."
Duke's mind moved.
Sand Eagle switched to the last elemental bullet, the jamming bullet.
This is a dark elemental bullet that acts on the psychic plane, which can interfere with the mental stability of the enemy, so that the arcane mage cannot actively release the arcane.
As for the spirit beast's solidified arcane, the arcane mage's instantaneous arcane, because there is no need for mental influence, so the interference bullet has no effect.
"Yes, yes, if you want to capture a live spirit beast, a few interference bullets hit it, and the spirit beast is estimated to be dizzy and captured." Duke was quite happy with the jamming bomb, which was non-lethal but could be used as a powerful anesthetic.
To see who is unhappy, shoot two shots in the back, and directly make the other party faint for a while, which will not hurt people's lives, but also can export evil anger.
Seven elemental bullets, all tested once.
Duke walked back and communicated with Xiaoyi: "Can't the elements stack on top of each other?" ”
"Returning to the master, the spell model structure of the first ring of sand eagles has reached the bearing limit after many improvements, and it is impossible to fit more structures."
"Okay."
Duke also knew that the functions of the one-ring sand eagle were too many and had reached their limits.
Many arcane mages' arcane weapons only have a specific function, which is far worse than a ring of sand eagles.
Of course, this is also because the sand eagle is a companion arcane weapon, and the underlying logic of the spell model is the same as the underlying logic of this world. That's why so many functional structures can be chimeshed in a spell model with just one ring.
It is estimated that after the successful development of the 1.6 continuous version of the Sand Eagle, it is time for the first ring of the Sand Eagle to reach the real limit.
"Lord Duke, have you cultivated?" Herdos, the captain of the patrol knights, saw Duke walking down the wall and stepped forward to ask.
"It's already good, destroy a bush."
"It doesn't matter, the shrubs outside the city are not worth a few dollars, and they are far less important than your cultivation." Herdos laughed.
This 2-Ring Phantom Beast Knight has always maintained enough respect in front of Duke.
Wait for Duke to go away.
A grand knight of the patrol knights rode close to Herdos: "Captain, the bushes outside the city walls have been cleared, tsk, this Lord Duke is really powerful, the entire bushes have been blasted into powder." ”
"Lord Duke is a genius arcane mage, and it is normal for him to be stronger."
"Captain, you said, our Suktara Mage Tower, will we change our name to Duke Mage Tower sooner or later?" The Grand Knight asked.
Herdos glared at the other party: "This is a question you can care about?" ”
"Hehe, I'm just asking...... The leaders of the Su clan were thrown out of the castle by the old lady to fend for themselves, and the brothers were discussing this matter. ”
"What does the boss do, as vassals, we are not qualified to ask, understand!" Herdos scolded, "You tell the people in the team, I don't care what others discuss, in the patrol knights, everyone keeps their mouths shut for me!" ”
Seeing that Herdos was angry, the great knight did not dare to say again: "Yes, captain! ”
……
"Psionic Sensing Tentacles, Duke, what kind of loud name do you call my mysterious weapon?" Sanfiz came to Suktara Mage Tower as a guest.
He had already gathered the main materials for the Arcanes.
"Endoscope." Duke gave a name that he was very familiar with in his previous life.
"Endoscope? What a broken name, it's not forced at all. Shanfiz directly vetoed, "How about calling the touch of all souls, ten thousand represents omnipotence, spirit represents spiritual energy, and the all-powerful spiritual tentacles are appropriate and windy!" ”
"Well, that's good." Duke said perfunctorily.
"It's such a happy decision, my arcane weapon is called the Touch of All Souls!"
"Then for the touch of all souls, I did a preliminary study with the teacher, and I felt that there could be some new changes in the design."
"You say, you say."
Sanfiz listened very carefully to his arcane weapon, and discussed it with Duke for two hours, and when Sukhtara returned from the Union Tower, he continued to discuss it for about an hour before finalizing the design of the Touch of All Souls.
"The plan is confirmed, I will immediately cast it, Shanfeis, in the process of casting, there is no way to change any new ideas, are you sure?"
"I'm sure, Lord Sukhtara, please and Duke!"
"Don't worry, Sanfes, the teacher and I will forge the best arcane weapon for you." Duke said.
Shanfiz laughed, hugged Duke and said, "Can I still not believe you, you are already a polymath and a well-known person!" ”
Staying for dinner, Sanfiz took his leave and left.
Duke and Sukhtara immediately went to the casting work, teaching and practicing their hands, starting with the design of the spell model, and gradually creating the prototype of the arcane weapon.
"Alchemy and naturalism are not incompatible, on the contrary, the two are the same in the process of casting." Sukhtara quickly operated the instrument, "Hand rubbing a portable lamp, in the eyes of the alchemist, there is no technical content. ”
"I know, Teacher, in fact, all the realms of spiritual arcane are interconnected, and there is no independent system. Even the study of naturalism is the result of mutual interference in the fields of spirit cards, alchemy, puppets, formations, and so on. ”
"Yes, you understand quite thoroughly." Sukhtara praised.
Then he said: "The direction of the ring replication material is too big, and the teacher doesn't expect you to complete it in a short time." If you want to get the title of alchemy scholar in the future, you need to learn more techniques in other fields, and then make breakthroughs with the idea of alchemy. ”
"Yes."
"Come, look at this structure, a special way of outlining is needed in the Touch of All Souls, which is convenient for the encapsulation reserved for alchemy......"
Time ticks and slips quietly in the midst of learning.
By the time the spell model for the Touch of All Souls was designed, it was already mid-June.
"Teacher."
Duke came back from Penrose Mage's Tower and said a piece of news: "His Excellency Capello Flamingo, the deputy head of the Honorary Department of the Erudition Tower, came to me just now, saying that the Erudito Tower of Runwu City is about to hold a naturalist conference, and all Erudito are invited to attend. ”
"How many days are you going?"
"The meeting is three days, and if you travel back and forth, it will take at least ten days." Duke calculated, the airship flew to Runwu City, and the route would take three days.
A little more delay in the middle would have to spare a total of ten days.
Sukhtara sighed: "Alas, it is quite a delay in teaching, but this kind of meeting is very good for your future growth, the teacher will not stop you, go ahead." ”
"Thank you for your understanding."
"You can learn alchemy from the teacher, the teacher is already very satisfied, how can you delay your growth."
Compared with the academic salon held by Master Ao, the naturalist conference held in the Erudite Tower of Runwu City is not only formal, but more importantly, it can really exchange knowledge.
In particular, the limited candidates for the conference are all polymaths, and the level of spiritual arcane is different.
The next day, Duke began to prepare.
Sukhtara's Shadow Chase airship has been licensed to Duke and can be borrowed at any time - Duke has no plans to buy it for the time being, after all, he has to repay the money he makes.
"Sir, can you take Xiao Shanshan with you?" Mulali took Duke by the arm and asked, "Can we still massage you together during the trip?" ”
Duke didn't care, and brought one or two more followers: "Yes." ”
The Guardian Knights led by Vivien were also brought by him, but in fact, these Great Knights had limited protection effect on him, more like a guard of honor.
However, other arcane mages bring it, and if Duke doesn't bring it, the pomp and circumstance will not be enough.
"Have you been in contact with the Polymath Tower?"
"We have already made contact, and at about ten o'clock tomorrow, we will gather at the Chengdong Flying Station, and then form an airship team and fly along the route together."
"yes, okay."
The Federation of the Seven Towers is populous, and most of its territory is still primeval forests, but powerful spirit beasts are regularly cleared.
But there are always fish that slip through the net.
Therefore, only the route is the safest, and walking the route in a group can provide more safety protection.
"Lord Erwin has decided not to participate in this naturalist meeting, and the team will be led by Lord Cowley, plus Lord Azgul, Lord Dinkig, Lord Bovis, Lord Gruen, Lord Neville, and you, sir, a total of seven."
"Erudito is really talented, in addition to Lord Elwin, the 4-Ring Arcane Mage, there are also two 3-Ring Arcane Wizards, Cowley and Azgul."
Duke sighed.
Cowley is a member of the Board of Directors of the Erudite Tower, but he is relatively low-key, rarely involved in the management of the Erudite Tower, and spends most of his time doing research in his own Mage Tower.
At nine o'clock the next day, the Shadow Chaser airship departed from the Suktara Mage Tower, passed through the suburbs of Shenjiao City, and arrived at the Chengdong Flying Station.
There are already two airships parked at the flight station.
Among them was one that read "Azgul Master Ta-Xihua", apparently Azgul's airship.
The Shadow Chaser landed in the flight station, Duke glanced at the Xihua airship, ignored it, and went directly to another airship, the Periscope airship, which was not marked with a mage tower in front, obviously this is the airship of the 2-ring arcane mage.
"Duke, you're here!"
"Lord Dinkig, you're here so early."
Dinkig smiled: "I always wake up early, and what is the difference between reading books and newspapers on airships and reading books and newspapers at home." ”
The attendant on the airship brought tea to Duke.
After a brief chat, Duke asked, "Is there anything I need to pay attention to in previous naturalist conferences, I attended it for the first time, and I don't understand anything." ”
"Haha, then you have to prepare in advance, as a new polymato, you will definitely be scheduled to give a presentation at the conference. Especially the glare-light technology you invented, not to mention the title of Erudito, even the title of Erudito Sage can compete. ”
The emergence of strong light technology can be said to be full of practicality.
Replaced by a veteran polymath like Erwin, I am afraid that it will not be long before the title of erudite sage will be smashed.
It's a pity that Duke is too young.
There is still a blank in other aspects, such as cultivating students, promoting museums, and developing people's livelihood.
If you want to get the title of erudite sage, you don't have much convincing.
Of course.
If it is replaced by a major discovery such as spiritual magnetic waves, not to mention winning the title of erudite sage, it is easy to be selected as the chief sage of the Ofa Tower.
The chief sage of the Offa Tower, who is an arcane mage facing all realms, competes together, and can be called the "academician" of the Seven Towers Federation.
"Strong light technology focuses on creativity, but in fact, there is not much technical content, I really don't know what to say when the time comes."
"No, no, no, there is too much to say, what you said at the Erudite Tower Investiture Ceremony, expand and expand, and polish the details of the invention of the glare-light technology, it will definitely be a good report, maybe it can be published in journals of the level of "Spiritual Arcane" and "Arcane Tower Guide".
There are three levels of academic journals, and the lowest is local academic journals, and Duke's "Runwu City Lingka" has published the most papers at this level.
The second class is general academic journals, which are all published by the Orfa Tower of the Orfa Holy City, and are biased towards a single field.
The first level is the core academic journal, which is also distributed by Offata, which is a comprehensive journal, and only the top academic papers, the most important research results, or significant phenomena can be published in the core academic journals.
"Spiritual Arcane" and "Introduction to the Arcane Tower" are the core academic journals.
"You're ridiculous." Duke said modestly.
"It's not like I'm talking nonsense, the glare-light technology is indeed a sensation, the Holy City's Erudite Tower has been fully promoted to the twelve areas of the Federation, at least in terms of practicality, there is currently no technology more commendable than the glare-light technology."
One flattering, the other modest, the atmosphere of the chat is quite pleasant.
Soon two more airships arrived, and after a brief exchange of landings, it was confirmed that all the Erudito had arrived at the meeting.
Among them, Bovis was in Cowley's airship, and Gorevin and Neville were in one of them.
At ten o'clock, the four airships took off in unison and flew towards the east, and Duke also returned to the Shadow Chaser, enjoying the teacher's airship alone.
Mulali and Mula Shan, the two beautiful girls, one beat his legs for him and the other pinched his shoulders.
The Grand Knight Vivien sat on the side, quietly peeling apples, vindictively in his hands, and the paring knife seemed to be carving a work of art.
Soon, the skin of the apple was torn off, and the flesh was as smooth as silk, and it was handed to Duke.
"The knife work is going up, Vivien."
"Practice makes perfect." Vivien put down her paring knife and asked, "My lord, do you still want to eat oranges, I'll peel one for you." ”
"Well, let's peel it." Duke eats a lot.
In other words, knights eat a lot of food, and the fighting spirit generated by the sea of blood is drawn from food at its root, so it is very important to eat well.
"Tsk!" Jumped over.
"Hmm, you're hungry too?" Duke glanced at Mulari.
The little assistant immediately understood, got up and asked the flight attendant to bring a spirit beast jerky, and handed Duke's contract spirit beast pocket.
Now Duke basically keeps Xiaodou as a pet, after all, he has been promoted to the 1st ring, and he has also been promoted to the 1st ring knight. The role that should be played is in place, and as for the pursuit of the ethereal phantom beast, Duke thinks very openly and goes with the flow.
"Tsk!" Xiao Dou grabbed the dried meat of the spirit beast and feasted on it.
Duke takes it with him wherever he goes, this long-haired meerkat, and he can be regarded as traveling from south to north, and he doesn't know how much delicious food he eats.
4-ring spirit animal meat, and even 5-ring spirit animal meat are not less.
Before the airship flew out of the periphery of Shenjiao City, through the flag, Cowley's airship sent an invitation to Duke to go over and play cards.
Duke wasn't interested in games like poker.
In other words, some of the heights are too cold.
After all, Xiaoyi's strong computing power, not only can remember cards, but also count cards, basically nine out of ten bets to win, unless luck is back home, otherwise no one is Xiaoyi's opponent.
The popular cards among the arcane mages, no matter how complicated the rules are, are no different from the open cards in front of Xiaoyi.
"Sir, do you want to refuse?"
"Forget it, go over and play two first, and I'll come back when a few old gentlemen have won the panic." Duke got up and left the deluxe cabin.
Come to another shuttle room.
This flight attendant-type shuttle, specially used for the travel between airships, uses arcane propulsion, and soon Duke arrives at Cowley's airship.
"Come on, Duke, it's crowded, let's have a few games together." Cowley is an old man who is obsessed with academics, serving as a director of the Erudite Tower, but he doesn't go to work much, and when he has a little free time, he calls his friends to play cards together, "Azgul, are you sure you don't play?" ”
"Don't play." Azgul also arrived on this airship at some point.
When she saw Duke coming, she glanced at her, and continued to lie down on the sofa chair, reading the newspaper.
Duke glanced back, and then didn't even say hello, and went straight to the table and sat down - his face had been torn anyway, so there was no need to get closer.
As an arcane mage, he has capricious capital.
"Come on, Duke, sit down, deal the cards!" Cowley greeted.
"Okay." Duke smiled.
An hour later.
Cowley looked at the large pile of chips in front of Duke, and his old face darkened: "You kid is really like Lord Keystone said, soaked in the spiritual spring?" ”
"It's just luck." Duke smiled again.
Another hour.
Cowley was no longer interested in talking, and Dingkig and the others were also black-faced.
Bovis took the last chip he had left in his hand and turned it upside down: "Master Cowley, I don't want to play anymore, nine out of ten are won by Duke, and the remaining one has to be won by us in a few rounds, so we just pay for Duke." ”
"yes, there's no point in playing cards." Gruwin chimed in.
Neville buttoned his nails, "It's boring." ”
Dingkig nodded approvingly.
All the chips on the table were already piled up in front of Duke, and he smiled and looked at several black-faced polymaths: "I think it's interesting!" ”
Listen to him.
Cowley, who loves gambling cards, couldn't help but break his defense: "It's really not interesting, forget it, let's drink tea and chat." ”
Ask for tickets~
