Chapter 553 The Power of Science
The bright moon hangs high in the night sky.
In the west of Georgia’s territory, the Cumberland Line, outside a standard sentry tower with 100 people garrisoned with complete supporting facilities.
“Roar!”
A low roar came out of his throat, and a bright silver agile silhouette suddenly flashed in the primordial mountain forest, but was turned upside down by the soldiers on duty who had already reversed their schedules. They are found immediately.
At the same time when the searchlight locked on it, the arakkoa commander as the chief officer waved violently:
“Fire!”
Bang! boom! boom! boom!
A soldier wearing a leather trench coat and enchanted goggles raised the musket that was already in a state of activation, the flames of the orange red guns shone in unison, and the lead bullets carrying the faint white light were blocked like a storm. that silhouette dodged the space.
One bullet hit that silhouette’s back leg, another hit its back.
The enemy whose speed was so fast that there was only one afterimage finally appeared in the eyes of ordinary soldiers. This is a full-body silver, a leopard-like natural spirit with feathers on its slender limbs.
It’s just that the front half of its body is plump and graceful, with even a pair of small wings on its shoulder blades, but the back half of its body is scrawny, as if it is not a fully developed defective product. In the eyes of the soldiers, there is a different fierce attitude.
Currently.
Under the benefit of the spirit of the new continent spilling over, even the ghosts that are as thin as paper cannot be underestimated. Just like the former “headless ghost” Aida, they also have the ability to kill directly.
As for this silver cheetah, it already has the extraordinary nature of the wraith level. If it is lucky enough to be enshrined by the Atrians, it is very likely that it will gradually transform into a new Totem god.
“The transcender stepped forward to meet the enemy, the grenadiers prepared, and the musketeers loaded.”
With the order of the arakkoa commander, the two werewolves jumped from the array He got up, waved the machete with a layer of golden sword oil in his hand, and swooped at the silver cheetah whose speed dropped sharply.
At the same time, a group of grenadiers in the rear had ignited the balls with fuses in their hands.
According to the habits of the arakkoa troops, the best choice at this time is to use the atomized holy water that is most targeted to “ghosts”.
However, the believers of the new continent are relatively thin, and the holy water that the Black Iron Cross Church can produce is not rich. In this war, the cherished holy water was used more as a medicine than a weapon to treat Evil Spirit violations.
Fortunately, they also have an equivalent substitute – [Holy Salt Bomb], the raw material is not the salt used in many church ceremony, but a red sulfate crystal prepared by witchcraft .
“Bomb!”
pēng pēng pēng .
The [Holy Salt Bomb] that exploded in the air poured out tiny rain of red crystals, filling the whole slice space. There was nothing unusual about the two werewolves, but the silver cheetah seemed to be bathed in a rain of sulfuric acid, with blue smoke all over its body and howling horribly.
“ao ——!”
However, this Spirit Physique monster with only bloodthirsty instincts, instead of retreating, turned towards the werewolf closest to him, and launched a decisive counterattack. Spirit Physique is brighter than ever.
It seems that the head soaked in sulfuric acid is ugly like a ghost, and the sharp animal teeth flashing with a cold glow, stinging the werewolf’s eyes.
Faced with the close proximity of the mouth of the beast, the werewolf did not dodge but stepped forward. The “wild aura” in his body suddenly burst, and he pulled out the dagger with pale red blade around his waist with his backhand, and fiercely stabbed into the Spirit Physique core of this silver leopard natural spirit.
Bang——
Like the last straw that broke the camel’s back, the silver cheetah exploded into particles of light and slowly disappeared.
The [Gladiator Amulet] hanging on the werewolf suddenly lit up, and the trickling spirituality feedback made him feel like drinking a bowl of cold water in June, and he felt refreshed from the bottom of his heart to the tips of his hair.
“Ha!”
Many participants in the war have gained more or less, which has become the norm recently.
“It’s just a small character without any special ability, don’t relax, pay attention to vigilance!”
Through experiments, the maximum interval of the effectiveness of the sentry tower is about ten kilometers.
Now, on the 350-kilometer-long Cumberland Line, a total of 36 defensive post towers have been established, and the total garrison force has reached 3,600. Because of the powerful reinforcements of Yuanfan Leader, the soldiers can be rotated once a month.
The scene that happened here is just a microcosm of the entire “Appalachian Line of Defense”.
It has been two months since the first spiritual tide broke out today.
A large-scale impact like the first time has never happened again, but there have been sporadic small groups of Spirit Physique monsters pounding the defense line of the kingdom and colonies. Started a lot better.
In this low-intensity battle, the trained warriors are able to deal with ordinary natural spirits with no special ability.
During this period, the tactics are gradually running in, what tactics, countermeasures, and weapons are used by different types of enemies. After each typical battle is over, a special person will complete the battle summary and distribute it to the whole article. line of defense.
So in addition to the enhancement of personal combat capability due to the [Rite of Ifrit], the accumulation of knowledge, combat skills, including morale, have also been improving.
Battle heroes, model pacesetters, advanced collectives, and various titles are also selected before the defense change every month. Along with the honor, comes rich material rewards and the authority to customize weapons.
Under the combined effect of various policies, there has been no serious fear of war, and the overall situation of the war has improved.
Of course, the premise is that there are no surprises.
Also located in Steel City in the Cumberland mountain range.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
In the huge workshop where steel and wood are mixed, the steam of white lingered, the steam forging hammer continued to roar, and the various weapons in the hands of the craftsmen took shape quickly.
The application of various steam machines here greatly improves the efficiency of sword forging and the manufacture of various weapons.
With the sufficient supply of orders, the arsenal that Alwin envisioned to be the last to develop its strength came from behind, and together with Steel City, it has become the most profitable industry in Georgia.
Standing at this tuyere that can blow pigs up, I made a huge fortune in war.
Even relying on the workers trained by this batch of orders and a series of supporting facilities built by the alchemy apprentices, Alwin has begun to use the steam drilling machine to secretly test the ship-borne artillery!
Although the artillery this thing is not very useful in the war against “spiritual tide”. However, the heavy artillery that can be installed in battleships of more than 24 pounds will profoundly determine the future status of Georgia.
Of course, this is just the beginning. At present, the main products in the arsenal are still to deal with the “spirit tide”.
On the front line, the changeover has almost been completed in two months.
Considering the cost and manufacturing difficulty, lead bombs soaked with positive energy, low-level sword oil, and holy salt bombs are the three main products, and they are also easily depleted materials that consume at an alarming rate.
Additionally.
“Bright Starry Night” has mysterious, stars, the gate of Spirit World, prophecy and other priesthoods. It is one of the most mysterious True Gods, mastering all kinds of mysterious and unpredictable knowledge and power.
It can be said that the “Starry Night Religion” is one of the forces best at dealing with Spirit Physique monsters in the material world.
Alwin once obtained a “rune silver dagger·breaker” from the “Starry Night Religion”, which claims to be able to repel evil spirits and even damage a certain “concept” that constitutes their core.
Experience their power firsthand.
So he picked out the practical parts from the mysterious knowledge attached by Ali, and after targeted transformation, applied it to this large-scale arms production, and also replaced his original one. Design.
The last shallow red-edged dagger used by werewolves is one of the most typical.
This is not some kind of enchanting effect, but a special kind of steel – coral steel.
The main difference between steel and iron is the difference in carbon content. Steelmaking is the process of continuously reducing the carbon content in pig iron.
Wrought iron (wrought iron): C%<0.0218%; Steel: C% 0.0218%～2.06%; Pig iron: C% 2.06-4.3%.
In this era, there are mainly two ways “Hundred Refinements Steel Method” and “Fried Steel Method”.
The “Hundred Refinements steel method” is to put it bluntly, and it is repeated forging after heating to remove impurities be tempered into a steel, which is also the main method adopted by most national arsenals at present.
The artisans of the Phaletis Kingdom have already been ahead of the other countries, and they took the lead in inventing the “steel frying method” that can make large-scale steel.
The normal procedure is to mash the pig iron into the hearth with the wind blowing in from above. Due to the small volume of the can-shaped underground furnace, the heat concentration is not easy to dissipate, which is beneficial to increase the temperature.
When the pig iron is heated to a molten or semi-molten state, the contact surface of iron and oxygen is increased by stirring. It can oxidize the carbon in the iron, and as the carbon content decreases, the melting point of the iron increases and begins to solidify gradually.
If the stirring is continued in the semi-solid state, the carbon contained in it can be re-oxidized with the help of oxygen in the air, and it can become low-carbon wrought iron; it can also be controlled when it is not completely decarbonized. Carbon content, termination of the frying process, can become medium carbon steel or high carbon steel.
When we arrive at Alwin, we choose to fry mature iron directly, and then add carburizing agent.
The normal carburizing agent is generally charcoal or pulverized coal, but Alwin has improved this step and replaced it with the main material configured by Swamp Valley Di, Black Mage Rose, and Agave stamens A potion called [Red Potion].
The surface of the final finished steel ingot looks no different from ordinary steel, but the forged edge of the weapon is crystallized and has a very obvious coral-like pale red.
No additional enchantments are required to inflict powerful damage on Spirit Physique, known as Coral Steel.
The most important thing is that the cost is low and it can be industrialized on a large scale!
The wizard tower.
Alwin himself was not at all idle during this time.
He is rapidly digesting the knowledge of 【Flesh Puppet】 through constant practice with An Qi.
【Flesh Puppet】is the final result of Second Volume, but in a series of sorcery systems extended from this,【Altar of Flesh】is the real core of the front.
Once you have mastered the [Altar of Flesh and Flesh], you can finally make a series of powerful applications such as Flesh Puppet, Flesh Bomb, and Flesh War Chariot.
And one of the core functions of this sorcery that integrates multiple abilities in one body is “violent soldiers”!
The premise is that there are sufficient raw materials.
Because of the professional ethics of a “black-hearted” arms dealer, Alwin launched the “planned scrap” strategy at first. Although the arms sold to the “Church of Raging Waves” are easy to use, they are not compatible with sea monsters. The rate of consumption in our war is also very fast.
In addition to gold, silver, and precious witchcraft materials, there is one more item in the payment provided by “Church of Nuts” – a huge sea monster corpse.
Few things provide Alwin with a plentiful supply of otherworldly flesh than a sea monster.
After being digested and absorbed by the Flesh Altar built with the magic book “Rite of Flesh” as the core, it becomes the raw material for reconstructing [Flesh Puppet].
So the environment in the wizard tower recently is really hard to describe.
If the fanatical radical priest of “Fire of Eternal” chooses to destroy one between the “Living Chemistry School” and the “Mechanical Immortality School” at this time, it is really hard to say which one to choose.
Of course, for Alwin, the [Altar of Flesh] modified by him has another, more critical use.
Using the extraordinary flesh and blood of sea monsters, continuously cultivate a trace of “night spirit bloodline” stripped through [Witchcraft·Bloodline Transplantation].
It’s about his road to third rank, which is one of his hands-on projects.
Why did the Warlocks lose power as they intermarry with mortals? Why are demonized creatures able to reproduce stably even though it is more difficult to reproduce? Why can the bloodline power of the demonized creatures continue to increase during the growth process?
The root is still in extraordinary qualities.
Excellent bodybuilders also need reasonable nutrition in order to maintain a good physical condition. In addition to normal food, glutamine, (protein powder) amino acids, creatine, vitamin and minerals are not allowed. Or missing.
The extraordinary nature also needs the same level of “nutrition” for supplementation.
Standing next to the altar of flesh and blood, watching that a little bit of extraordinary bloodline has grown to the normal share of two adult “night spirit”, Alwin smiled lightly:
“Science” One of the great powers of “night spirit” lies in its reproducibility!”
Without the support of [Altar of Flesh and Flesh], even if the number of “night spirit” elder sisters doubles, it may not be enough for him. research consumption, but now the dawn of profligacy seems to be imminent.
Thank you for the 1,500 rewards of Shanhe Kurong! Thank you book friends for the five hundred rewards for returning to the world! Thank you for your monthly and recommended tickets!
