Chapter 113: The Power of Darkiron
In the beginning of antiquity, who preached it?
Zhou Jue copied these two sentences, hung them in front of him, and thought about them all night.
It wasn't until the sun rose in the east and the sunlight penetrated Zhou Jue's eyes that Zhou Jue suddenly woke up, and he stood in front of these two sentences all night.
Suddenly, Zhou Jue laughed loudly, and his voice echoed in the sky above Zhang's mansion.
"I understand, I understand!" Zhou Jue's temperament gradually changed. In a word, although it failed to make Zhou Jue have an epiphany, it also helped Zhou Jue solve a lot of problems and troubles.
"If there is a problem, we should take the initiative to solve it, not wait passively. ”
When Zhou Jue came out of the house, he saw Zhang Shengde arching his hand from afar: "Congratulations." ”
Zhou Jue returned the salute: "Good morning Uncle Zhang, thanks to Zhang Hao, a word woke me up." What about Zhang Hao?"
Although Zhou Jue is in the middle of the Yuan Infant and Zhang Shengde is in the early Yuan Infant, because Zhou Jue has been arguing with Zhang Hao's peers, when he sees Zhang Shengde, he has to shout 'uncle', not 'Daoyou'.
Zhang Shengde laughed helplessly: "That kid is still sleeping." ”
"Ah......" Zhou Jue was a little stunned, the cultivator was still sleeping?
As he was talking, Zhang Hao pushed open the door and yawned: "What is it called early in the morning, and I don't let people sleep, I don't know if I fell asleep in the middle of the night last night!"
Zhou Jue had a black line: "Brother Shi, if you meditate for half an hour, you will be able to recover your energy!"
"But how comfortable it is to sleep in. ”
"......" I thought you were good just now, and a lazy nap knocked my understanding of you back to its original form.
Zhang Hao rubbed his eyes vigorously, yawned and said, "Brother Shi, at the later meeting of the Xuantie Factory, I want to invite you to attend as a guest, is it convenient?"
"Okay!" Zhou Jue agreed! He was hesitant to open his mouth just now, but after last night's conversation, he was very interested in the Xuantie factory that the Zhang family was going to build.
............
Liu Jingming, Ouyang Si, Li Yousheng, Feng Tai and others also arrived one after another, and everyone gathered in the lobby of Zhang's house.
But sitting in the keynote position today is not Zhang Shengde, but Zhang Hao.
Although the people from the Xuantie Guild were a little surprised, they quickly accepted it. Since the establishment of the Xuantie Guild, Zhang Hao has performed well.
Liu Jingming and Ouyang Si were a little surprised. With so many people at the scene, a teenager was allowed to give a lecture?
As for Zhang Hao, he opened his mouth and was shocked: "Everyone, the country of Canglan and the country of Taihua once again sent troops from the north and south at the same time, so that the country of Jinyang was tired of coping."
Now, the eastern defense line of the country of Jinyang has been lost, and the east of the country of Jinyang has fallen,
And Anqing, the imperial capital of the country of Jinyang, is also in danger. ”
Everyone was silent for an instant, and they were really stunned by the news.
The six western countries have been fighting against the east all year round, and of course they understand what it means to lose the country of Jinyang: the six western countries are in danger!
Ouyang Si was the first to speak: "Zhang Hao, where did you get the news?
Zhang Hao turned his head to look at Zhou Jue.
Zhou Jue got up and introduced himself: "Zhou Jue, the eldest disciple of the Jiuyang Sect, the law name Yun Juezi, my father Xinglin Hall Zhou Shuhai. ”
"Gooo ......" swallowed saliva first to suppress the shock, but he didn't expect such a guest to appear.
Liu Jingming had seen Zhou Jue a long time ago, but he didn't know why Zhou Jue came today, and he didn't speak. It was only now that Liu Jingming had a guess.
I heard Zhou Jue continue: "The information about the country of Jinyang was brought by me, and it is the information channel of the Jiuyang Sect. I can vouch for the truth. And that was already a day ago. ”
Everyone immediately whispered, and they were all dizzy by the news.
"Quiet!" Zhang Hao shouted, "Everyone, the reason why we are here is to solve these problems. ”
Zhang Hao's words, even Ouyang Si and Liu Jingming were curious, how do you solve it?
I heard Zhang Hao continue: "If we want to win the war, we must carry forward our own advantages. What are our advantages?
It's Darksteel!
The East has monopolized the trade routes, making us short of pills.
But we have Darkiron, countless high-quality Darkiron! If we can exert the power of Darkiron, we will have a body made of Darkiron, and it will be an indestructible body!"
"Ahem...... Ouyang Si interrupted Zhang Hao's words, "Zhang Hao, what you said makes sense, but Xuantie is not a resource unique to the West, and there are many in the East. What do you mean by the advantages of Xuantie?"
"Weapons of War!"
As he spoke, Zhang Hao clapped his hands, and immediately a guard dragged the Zhang family's cloud-piercing crossbow in. After optimization, the Cloud Piercing Crossbow is now much smaller, but its power has increased instead of decreasing.
Zhang Hao pointed to the Cloud Piercing Crossbow: "This is called the Cloud Piercing Crossbow, and its power is enough to shoot the peak Jiaolong of the Jindan period at a height of 100 zhang." Zhou Jue can testify to this. ”
Zhou Jue nodded to everyone.
Zhang Hao continued: "The technique of making the Cloud Piercing Crossbow is already mature and relatively simple, only the arrow part needs to be dealt with specially, but there is no need to use different fires, etc., the true fire of the cultivator is enough.
A cloud-piercing crossbow requires 400 kilograms of crude iron and 200 kilograms of black iron. But its power is enough to shoot through the master of the Jindan period. Affects the master of the infant stage.
A golden pill period takes more than ten years, or even decades, to cultivate.
But the Zhang family can make three to five cloud-piercing crossbows and thousands of arrows a day.
Suppose that one day in the future, we will fight against the Eastern Legion and fire ten thousand arrows, imagine what kind of scene it will be?"
"War can't be counted like this!" Ouyang Si directly retorted, "Jiaolong is Jiaolong, that's a demon beast." Jindan stage cultivators, come and go like the wind, have rich combat experience, and have armor, talismans and other protection, if you want to shoot the master of the Jindan period, it is very difficult.
And the ballista bed is bulky and prone to damage.
Moreover, in a large-scale war, there is a battle array, which can greatly weaken the threat of crossbow arrows. ”
Zhang Hao-for-tat: "What Uncle Ouyang said makes sense. But the ballista only needs an adult to operate! If we produce tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, we can completely snipe the enemy's legions if we take defense.
Besides, it's not like there's no Jindan period on our side.
My father-in-law once said that our Western tactics are to use masters to drag down the enemy's masters, so that soldiers can rely on the magic of war to achieve victory.
If every three or five soldiers can operate a ballista, it will deal a fatal blow to the enemy. ”
Ouyang Si frowned: "War is not as simple as you think. ”
"There's more than one way to use it. We can also produce large quantities of war weapons, and we can also produce large quantities of armor.
Before, because the production of high-end dark iron was not much, the price was expensive, and a magic weapon-level armor required more than 100 high-grade spirit stones at worst, which was difficult for many cultivators to bear.
Even a country can only equip a soldier with a shield.
If the production of XuanTie increases and the price decreases dramatically, we can put on magic weapon-level armor for every soldier in the foundation building period! Let their combat effectiveness increase several times!"
Ouyang Si still had questions: "But it is very difficult to produce magic weapon armor. The difficulty and requirements of armor are almost more than 100 times that of flying swords!"
"Then what if the Zhang family has a way to increase the production speed of magic weapons by more than a hundred times?"
"What? impossible!" Liu Jingming and Ouyang Si exclaimed at the same time. Zhou Jue opened his mouth wide in surprise.
