Chapter 956: On how to fight against natural disasters (middle)
The internal discussions of the husband and wife team in the Kingdom of Ailanz were naturally unaware of the travelers.
After rejecting Liu Daoqing's suggestion of "praying for the sky", Locke made another suggestion.
"After all, the power of cold waves is limited. Why don't we try to concentrate the cold air in a certain area?" he said. "Choose a wasteland and gather the cold waves there. Isn't it safe elsewhere!"
After a while, Eric asked: "Then...how do we gather the cold waves? It's relatively easy to break up the cold waves. To gather the cold waves...what should we do?"
"Shouldn't this kind of thing be up to you, the master of the magic circle, to find a way?"
"Sorry, I really can't think of it."
"Can't think of such a trivial matter?" Locke was dissatisfied, "Don't tell me that you, the master of the magic circle, is a parallel importer!"
"Can you be reasonable? The severe cold wave is more than 5,000 kilometers wide. What method do you want me to use to gather it?" Eric asked, "Do you think I'm a god? No Even the immortals can't do anything! Back then, when the Eastern Land was in a severe drought, the Red Land was 8,000 miles away, and the immortals from the Thirty-six Caves and Seventy-two Blessed Lands dispatched more than half of them, but they couldn't recover much from the catastrophe. This time the Great White Disaster was at that level. , I can't do anything with my own strength!"
Locke was stunned for a while, and realized that his idea was a little unrealistic, but he did not give up, but changed his mind: "Since we can't gather all of them, at least gather the cold waves in a certain area, right?"
Eric thought for a while and replied, "With my ability, I can probably arrange a magic circle with an effective range of hundreds of miles. This is the limit."
"It's very simple. One magic circle is hundreds of miles, and ten magic circles are thousands of miles. If you arrange a hundred magic circles, won't the problem be solved?"
Eric was silent for a few seconds and said, "It will take about half a month to arrange a magic circle with an effective range of hundreds of miles. Give me enough time and materials, I can indeed arrange a hundred, but now the time Too late."
"Damn!" Locke couldn't help but scolded, thought about it, and asked, "Is there any way to improve efficiency? For example, you draw a drawing, and I will find a group of people to build according to the drawing..."
"The magic circle is not an industrial assembly line, but something closer to art. Not to mention me, even if Ilo is an industrial party, he has to consider the wind direction, water flow, terrain and other factors according to the actual local conditions. , in order to arrange the magic circle. If I draw the drawings irresponsibly directly, there will be problems in the end. Waste of materials is still a trivial matter, I am afraid of an explosion or something - you are immortal, and your subordinates will never be immortal. Bar."
Locke suddenly became dumb. After a long time, he made a "sigh" expression, and then said: "In this case, can you design a smaller magic circle?"
"How small is it?"
"The one with a diameter of no more than one thousand meters - no, let's be safe, at the level of eight hundred meters in diameter."
Eric was a little puzzled and said, "The smaller the scale, the simpler the design, but the smaller the scale, the smaller the effective range. Don't you want to collect cold waves on a large scale?"
"Since there is no way to do it in a large area, I have to change my thinking. I will turn the 'City of Sinners' into a magic circle, and then I will find a place where the cold wave is violent to collect. Locke said lightly, "I don't know how big the effect is. But it's better than nothing."
"Since you even said Yugong Yishan, then I have nothing to say - I won't charge you for the design fee. However, the diameter of the magic circle I originally designed was about two kilometers, and now this... works. The range is probably only twenty or thirty miles away. You can move this mountain!"
"Is this ratio wrong!" Because he has dealt with numbers a lot over the years, Locke immediately realized that there was a problem with the data.
"There is no linear relationship between the size of the magic circle and its effective range. You won't forget about nonlinear functions because you only need elementary school math in your work now?"
"...If you don't tell me, I really forgot."
Locke laughed at himself, and then was a little surprised to see a lot of "I also forgot", "Fuck I also forgot", "What is a 'non-linear function'?", "The scumbag said I didn't understand this back then", "Fuck you don't even understand this, how did you get into high school? Oh, little eggplant (Laisha), you just entered junior high school when you crossed over, it's normal to not understand, don't mind. …”
The last paragraph was said by Panda. As one of the few people who did not throw away scientific knowledge (mainly picking it up when helping Ilo to program automation), he could see the size and effective range of the magic circle at a glance. The relationship between them, but he didn't expect that others would not understand what seemed normal to him.
"It turns out that not only the craftsmanship will be abandoned if you don't practice it, but even the scientific knowledge!" After sighing, Panda closed the chat channel and went to sleep in peace.
For him, sleeping is a very pleasant and relaxing thing. As long as he wants, he can fall asleep anytime, anywhere, and it doesn't matter how long he wants to sleep.
After waking up, he thought that it would be difficult for him to leave for the time being, so he had to exercise while teaching the children in the tribe to practice martial arts.
Of course, the practice is boxing and kung fu. Although fists and weapons are used to kill people, they can kill a little less, which is a good thing after all.
Moreover... the Grey Giant Palm tribe is not too wealthy. Compared with the cost of learning swordsmanship and becoming a warrior, it needs to be equipped with a set of weapons and armor. Learning boxing and becoming a monk basically does not need to spend money on equipment. This advantage is too great. !
When playing games, there was a saying that "the rich learn magic and the poor play with kitchen knives", but even the warriors dubbed "the kitchen knife family" are actually not the poorest, the poorest are monks.
How poor are the monks?
When he first started this profession, Panda had seen many monks, even though they were over forty levels, they were still wearing novice outfits.
No way, the equipment used by monks is too rare. Rather than relying on those equipment, it is better to make a poverty oath. As soon as the Poverty Pledge is issued, I will say goodbye to equipment, medicines, auxiliary props and so on. Before reincarnating and changing careers, rely on novice outfits to conquer the world.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with this, at least at that time, Panda himself was hit hard by a monk wearing a novice outfit and a Tieshan leaning on it more than once, followed by a series of hurricane fists, lightning strikes, Feiyan kicks, and then a series of hurricane fists. At ten o'clock, it happened to be a standard combo that ended with a big move, Long Sky Kick, and killed him in one breath.
His requirements are not high, as long as the children of the Grey Giant Palm tribe can learn this combo.
Relying on this combo, at least in the middle-level circle, when fighting one-on-one, unless you encounter an assassin with super agility or a heavy armored warrior with super defense, normal opponents should be able to win. .
As for the question of "can't kill the opponent"... Anyway, if you kick in the sky, the opponent should not try to relax for at least ten seconds. With such a big advantage, even if you can't beat it, won't you still run?
