Chapter 397: Golden Ten Thousand Taels (Ask for a Double Monthly Pass)
"Poof!"
"Bang-"
When a mortar shell hit several humanoid targets three hundred meters away and exploded, Wren was satisfied.
However, Archbishop Hibbert's face did not wave, and he almost wrote the words "just this" on his face.
"Your Excellency Tesla, I'm busy." After that, he wanted to leave, apparently expressing his extreme dissatisfaction with Wren for luring the Mind Flayer over.
Wren silently added: "Mortars can also shoot flares!" ”
"What flares?"
"It can hit the sky and provide a wide range of light to the sky." Wren can't say if this thing can seduce this thing.
Who knew that the archbishop immediately performed a Sichuan opera face: "Oops! Why didn't you say such an important thing earlier. ”
Wren has caught the lifeblood of these 'moths'.
As long as it comes to the things of light, they can easily lose their minds.
There was another "poof", and a flare shot high.
The principle of the flare is not much different from that of ordinary mortar shells, mainly magnesium powder and aluminum powder as combustion agents, plus some pine glue, after hitting out, it will trigger a small parachute hidden in the shell, so that the flare can fall slowly like a dandelion at a speed of about 5 meters per second.
It's a pity that the chemistry is not good, and accelerants such as barium nitrate are not good, so they can only be used as flame elements.
Even with such a hybrid version of science and magic, the effect is quite amazing.
The unit brightness of a flare is comparable to that of the sun, and the brightness is equivalent to the effect of 400,000 or 500,000 candles lit at the same time.
In particular, when magnesium powder and aluminum powder are mixed and burned, the high temperature generated reaches more than 4000 degrees Celsius, which can melt gold and iron, and shines brightly and is particularly dazzling.
No, as soon as they were punched out, the clergy and believers who witnessed this scene around immediately shouted in infinite surprise and praised the names of the gods of light.
"Ahh Praise the light! ”
"Is it another new gadget developed with the help of the Physicists?"
"Great!"
"We are definitely the strongest ally with the School of Physics."
The archbishop listened to the enthusiastic cheers from all directions, and his face became more and more pleasant and amiable.
"What kind of flare of this kind, at first glance, it is very suitable for our sect. I don't know how much your party is paying? ”
Wren watched the other party's flies rubbing his hands, and his heart was already happy, and at the beginning of making it, he knew that the Church of Light would definitely take the bait.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly: "This thing cost millions of gold coins during research and development, and the production process is even more complicated." It's worth the money, though, isn't it? So you need this number for each shell......"
Wren raised an index finger at the bishop.
To be reasonable, the cost of a flare is just over 10 silver coins, and Wren feels that his offer of 1 gold coin is already very dark. After perfecting the mold and assembly line and reaching mass production, the cost can definitely be further reduced.
I never thought of it!
The archbishop's face changed slightly, and instead of accosting him directly, he made another request: "Can we be allowed to attach divine power to the cannonballs?" ”
"Absolutely."
"Then I'm okay with that. A platinum coin and a flare are a bit more expensive. Obviously, it's worth the money. Archbishop Hibbert said with a pained expression.
Ha?
What?
Did I hear me right?
Big brother, one platinum coin is equal to 100 gold coins!
Wren, of course, knew that the Church of Light was a big dog.
Just beating him to death, he didn't expect that these guys who believe in light could go so far.
It turns out that the number one sect in the good camp has the money to this extent?
Rao is a rich man like Ren, and he still has a feeling of being shocked by the other party's arrogance and internal injuries.
It can only be said that Renne, a person from the rabbit family, is still too conservative and doesn't understand the heart of a local tyrant at all.
Do people want power?
People want faith!
With the blessing of faith, all prices must be multiplied by adding two zeros before the decimal point.
The actor Ren used the quintessence of the country to vent for hundreds of rounds without culture in his heart, and his face hurt: "Forget it, this price does not meet my imagination." However, the enemy is currently in a position where we can't pay too much attention to it. So be it. ”
"How many flares can you provide to us urgently?"
"A thousand."
"Deal!"
It really didn't take much effort, a thousand platinum coins, that is, 100,000 gold coins.
Wren didn't know that he actually underestimated the magic of this world......
After the handover was completed here, the holy warriors who guarded the Great Sanctuary gave praise one after another. Turning around, the archbishop actually asked someone to secretly send a box of platinum coins, saying that he had ordered another 10,000 flares, and said that he had doubled the price for Wren in consideration of the urgency.
"Big dog......" Wren was a little itchy.
Both shells and mortar barrels were ready-made and did not take much extra time.
When Barend's men helped to adjust the shooting of the yuan, even a peasant would do the work of firing the cannons. Just don't put the mortar shell upside down.
It was just three days after Wren had brought the cauldron to the heads of the Bishops of Light.
God, it's changed.
Blessed by the gods of light, the sky over the Great Sanctuary of Light is clear most of the time, and it is only in spring and other seasons that it will follow the weather and rain a few times.
But this morning, the sky suddenly turned evil.
Originally, there should be no definition of good and evil in the weather.
The purple-black sky can't be reminiscent of good things.
Heaven and earth became pitch black, and only the glorious Great Sanctuary and the towering mage tower not far from it became the only two sources of light in this heaven and earth.
A few ominous streams of light flashed, the clouds boiled like porridge, and a huge black dot suddenly appeared in the sky about a kilometer west of the Great Holy Temple, like a large octopus, picking away the sand and mud from the deep seabed where it was hiding, revealing its hideous body in a chaotic light and shadow.
[Snail Ship]!
Lots of snail ships!
It's just that there are only seven or eight snail ships as big as the one that crashed in Wren last time. If the legendary Mind Flayer's snail ships are battleships, then many of the snail ships that come this time are destroyers and light cruisers.
In any case, when more than 300 large and small octopus snail ships appeared in the sky, the scene was still very shocking.
You know, there is definitely more than one Mind Flayer on a snail ship.
Generally, there are only three or five Mind Flayers on a small Snail Ship, while the number of Mind Flayer on a Legendary Snail Ship is often around fifty.
Just by visual inspection, the number of Mind Flayers in this community will not be less than two thousand.
That's an exaggerated amount. You must know that the largest Mind Flayer City in the entire Dark Region, the number of Mind Flayer Demons is only around three thousand. It's no exaggeration to say that they are pouring out of their nests.
When an aircraft carrier-class Void Battleship that looked like a conch shell appeared over the battlefield, there was an inevitable commotion on the side of the good camp.
The veteran legendary Holy Warrior Glord muttered to himself, "Even the [Void Nightmare] is here, which means that the [Mastermind] is here. Damn it! What did Wren Tesla do to make the entire Mind Flayer horde go crazy? ”
