my age of magic

Chapter 1240 44. Arrow Test
There are a total of seventeen lords who are eligible to have afternoon tea with Prince James at the Lakeside Manor. These lords have some private armed forces in their hands, and many of them have more than one Constructed Knights under their command. owns large tracts of land.

After the outbreak of the plane war, they took the knights to the imperial capital to look for opportunities to fight.

Last year on the Kampato River in Warsaw, the Prince of Wales led the Royal Constructed Knights to fight a beautiful battle of annihilation. Many lords expressed their willingness to join the expeditionary force to the Prince of Wales through various relationships and channels.

Later, the Prince of Wales led the Royal Constructed Knights to participate in the battle of the Vala Valley on the Kenda plane and won the victory, making him and the Mo family the youngest two generals of the Green Empire. At this time, I want to follow the Prince of Wales The lords of the expedition to various planes have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

It was just that after the Prince of Wales returned to the Imperial Capital from the plane of Kenda, he was silent in the Imperial Capital for nearly three months, until the ice and snow on the top of Mazzaro began to melt, and there was a surprise attack that caused a sensation in the entire Imperial Capital. At this time, still The only lords who firmly believe that the Prince of Wales can bring victory are the ones sitting in front of me.

This time, Prince James publicly stated that he and the Prince of Wales will go to the Luoqi plane together. For these noble lords, it can be regarded as proof of how correct the persistence of these three months is.

After the afternoon tea, more than a dozen lords took the opportunity to surround me and dragged me to discuss matters related to magic crossbows.

In desperation, I had no choice but to borrow Le Die's training ground and brought these lords there.

I placed four giant crossbow arrows with exquisite magic patterns side by side on the long wooden table in the training ground. They were ordinary giant crossbow arrows without attributes, magic arrows with 'sharp' attributes, magic arrows with 'penetrating' 'A magic arrow with the attribute, a magic arrow with the dual attributes of 'sharp' and 'penetrating'.

The arrows of the ordinary non-attribute crossbow had no gem bases, and no magic spar fragments were placed on them. The last three arrows were inlaid with magic spar fragments, emitting a faint magical halo in the sunlight.

In front of the lords were four giant crossbow arrows with exactly the same pattern, which made them a little confused.

In fact, it is impossible to tell the difference between the four giant crossbow arrows from the appearance alone. If it is not for the magic breath flowing from the magic pattern lines, it is impossible to tell which one is the real magic crossbow arrow.

Marquis Haslab almost pressed his face to the arrows of those giant crossbows, and asked curiously, "These are the arrows of magic crossbows?"

He talked to me a few words while having afternoon tea before, and I knew that this was a lord from Corgi, and I said to him: "Yes, these are the four giants that I currently provide to the South Wind Army. Samples of crossbow arrowheads."

A tall and slender lord stretched out his hand to hold one of the sharp crossbow arrows in his hand. He stretched out a thumb to gently scrape the blade to distinguish whether the giant crossbow arrow was sharp, but he One thing he had overlooked was that the magic attribute of the arrowhead of this giant crossbow was sharp. When his thumb slid across the blade, a bright red blood dripped down his finger.

He cried out in surprise: "Ah! What a sharp arrow, it actually cut my hand!"

I took the arrow of the giant crossbow in his hand, and the arrow became heavy in my hand. I cast the 'water therapy' on him, and the instant pain made his face wrinkle, and then the finger The bleeding was stopped, and the wound was continuously healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

I said to the lords: "This crossbow bolt has a sharp magic effect, which can easily cut a wound on the enemy's body, even if the skin on his body is as tough as rhinoceros."

After hearing my introduction, these lords became serious.

The slender lord took the giant crossbow arrow in his hand again, and praised: "These patterns make these giant crossbow arrows look a little higher. I heard that this kind of magic arrow can shoot through cavalry." heavy armor?"

I picked up the arrowhead of the third crossbow on the table and said to the lord: "The arrowhead of the giant crossbow that can penetrate the black iron armor of heavy cavalry is this one. The arrowhead of this giant crossbow is marked with 'through Through the magic effect, it can pierce the spider warrior's own insect armor."

Another lord came over to comment and said: "This arrow looks like the style of the elf world, with complicated magic patterns covering the entire arrow, so what is the difference between the last magic crossbow arrow and these two giant crossbow arrows? the difference?"

I said to these lords: "The four giant crossbow arrows on the table, except this one is an ordinary non-attribute arrow, the other three arrows all have the power of magic. These two are single-attribute magic arrows. This one It has the magic effect of 'sharpness', this one has the magic effect of 'penetrating', and the last one is the combination of the previous two arrows into one, possessing both 'sharpness' and 'penetrating' magic properties."

Marquis Haslab rubbed his eyes vigorously, and said to me: "There is no difference between the four giant crossbow arrows from the surface!"

"There are still some differences, such as the magic breath..." I showed these lords the gem base on the back of the arrowhead of the giant crossbow. 'The gem groove of the arrow is on the right side of the crossbow arrow, and there are gem grooves on the left and right sides of the double-attribute crossbow arrow.

"Everyone, please wait a moment."

After speaking, I walked into the storage room on the left side of the training ground, and then opened the portal and walked in. I first came to the blacksmith workshop, and asked the two dwarven female craftsmen inside to bring a set of Nacoma black iron The armor was carried to the teleportation altar, and then the good orc warriors guarding the teleportation altar carried an unmodified bed crossbow.

When the two orc warriors carried all these two bulky things into the storage room of the training ground, Le Die who was waiting outside was a little impatient. She pushed open the wooden door of the storage room, and I just put them in the storage room. The portal was closed, and she saw the two big guys in the storage room at a glance, then stared at the two-meter-high solid and thick black iron armor in surprise, and asked me: "Where did you go?" The storage room is just for these two big guys?".

I nodded and said, "I'm going to show them how sharp those magic crossbow bolts are."

Then I ran to the door of the storage room, greeted Katerina and the maids who were guarding outside, and asked them to help me lift these cumbersome guys to the training ground.

"Wait a minute, I'll call the servant over." Le Die stood behind and said to me.

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the storage room, stood on the training ground and waved to the two attendants standing far away. Seeing Princess Le Die waving to them, the attendants quickly put down what they were doing and rushed to Princess Le Die , Le Die asked the two attendants to move the Nacoma black iron armor and bed crossbow without a base to the training ground.

The lords who were waiting on the training ground saw that I brought a bed crossbow, and saw that I put a Nacoma black iron armor on the wooden man who was practicing charging on the training ground, and they all joined together with great interest. Come over and watch me fix this bed crossbow without a base.

"There should be a good bed crossbow in the warehouse at the logistics department, or I will take someone to push one?" The middle-aged housekeeper hurried over with two attendants and saw me preparing to fix the crossbow at the training ground. A bed crossbow without a base, suggested to me.

"Don't be so troublesome!" I said to the middle-aged housekeeper.

After speaking, I stretched out my hand and drew a magic circle on my chest, and a base made of water condensed appeared in front of me, followed by me softly shouting: "Ning Bing."

The transparent water base instantly filled with ice and mist, and condensed a bed crossbow base like an ice sculpture. I asked the middle-aged housekeeper and a few attendants to place the bed crossbow on the base. The installation was successful, and then I took out three three-meter-long wooden arrow shafts, and Katerina helped me install the three magic giant crossbow arrows on the arrow shafts.

The Marquis of Haslab clucked his tongue and asked me, "Count Jijia, are the shafts of the crossbow arrows you usually use made of iron wood?"

I nodded and said to him, "That's right, is there any problem? Marquis Haslab."

"Uh...Earl Jijia, you don't have a lumberyard rich in iron and wood, do you?" Earl Haslab's face became a little ugly when he saw the three giant crossbow shafts. Let me confirm this. The shafts of the arrows are all made of iron and wood, so I just asked me another question.

Without raising my head, I said to him, "That's right, there happens to be a valley where a lot of ironwood grows in one of my territories."

Marquis Haslab stood beside me, reached out and touched the wood grain on the arrow shaft, and couldn't help but said: "With all due respect, iron and wood arrow shafts are good, but the cost of an arrow shaft is lower than that of mixed arrow shafts." Arrow shafts made of magic black iron steel pipes are several times more expensive. This kind of arrow shaft is simply too expensive. Every shot of a crossbow arrow with an iron-wood shaft is equivalent to throwing out a yellow-orange gold coin. After a battle, how many gold coins have to be burned to go out!"

"Is the arrow shaft used by your bed crossbow made of black iron pipe?" A flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I couldn't help asking Marquis Haslab.

"In fact, most giant crossbow shafts are made of ordinary steel pipes. This kind of steel pipes can be bought in many blacksmith workshops. The steel pipes mixed with magic black iron can only be produced by the North Duisburg blacksmith workshop in the imperial capital. You can buy it." Marquis Haslab's tone was so natural.

All along, I have been habitually thinking that the shaft of the giant crossbow must be made of wood. The main reason for this illusion was that when I was in the stronghold of Trum on the plane of Hierro, a large number of arrow shafts of the bed crossbow were stored in the entire stronghold. Heaps, those bed crossbow shafts are all made of wood. Now think about it, the reason why the Grand Duke of Samoyed let his army use wooden giant crossbow shafts was to use local materials. At that time, he had a black In the vast land in the northern part of the forest, this black forest is rich in red pine and oak, so the Duke of Samoyed has stored hundreds of thousands of wooden giant crossbow shafts in the Trume stronghold.

It was this wrong judgment that made me subconsciously have an inertial thinking, that is, the shaft of the giant crossbow is made of wood.

After I owned [-] bed crossbows, because I upgraded the giant crossbow arrows to magic crossbows, the ordinary wooden arrow shafts could not bear the impact transmitted back by the magic crossbows. On the battlefield in the north, those giant crossbows often After repeated use three or two times, the magic arrows did not suffer much damage, but the wooden arrow shafts were shaken to pieces by the huge impact, so I later replaced all the dual-attribute giant crossbow arrow shafts with iron wood.

This time, I took Ying Li and Le Die to hunt the spider warlords in the Ye Luo plane. These magic crossbows made of iron and wood played a huge role. Another [-] iron and wood giant crossbow shafts are being processed. Unexpectedly, a sentence from Marquis Haslaber reminded me that those giant crossbow shafts can obviously be made of higher strength steel pipes or black iron alloy pipes. The third magic-weave circle was engraved on these black iron shafts, and I even thought about what magic-weave circle to engrave on the arrow shafts in the next second.

If the wind magic pattern circle called 'Wind Power' is engraved on the shaft of the giant crossbow, it should be able to increase the range of the bed crossbow by at least one-third.

"Earl Jijia, what's wrong with you?" Seeing me stunned for a long time, Marquis Haslab asked me with concern.

Maybe he was worried about annoying me, so he couldn't get out of the gate of the manor by the river...

I came back to my senses, and quickly said to him: "Uh... nothing, I just suddenly remembered something, hehe, Marquis Haslab, you are so right, I really shouldn't just because there is a seat in my house In a valley full of iron wood, iron wood is used to make giant crossbow shafts, I should go to North Duisburg to order black iron arrow shafts!"

Marquis Haslab took out a handkerchief from his pocket, wiped the oily sweat on his forehead, and said to me with a wry smile: "I didn't tell you to use black iron shafts! In fact, I think those Steel shafts are good enough."

It seems that Marquis Haslab has kept his thinking at the level of ordinary giant crossbows, completely unaware of how much a magic crossbow should cost.

So I quickly said to him: "Oh, I really want to thank you for reminding me."

Marquis Haslab laughed, and said half-jokingly: "Thanks are unnecessary, but I hope you can give me the same purchase price as the South Wind Army in the transaction of those giant crossbow arrows."

Without the slightest hesitation, I said directly to him: "Of course it's no problem, not only that, if you buy ordinary non-attribute giant crossbow arrows from me, I can give you five percent off the original price... ..."

Hearing what I said, Marquis Haslab was even happier.

Afterwards, I installed three magic crossbow bolts in the arrow slots of the bed crossbow one by one, and showed them the power of the magic crossbow bolts.

Maybe magicians have made magic crossbows before, but because of the high cost, they have not been widely used in the army.

The wooden figure is about 600 meters away from the bed crossbow. In order to accurately shoot the wooden figure, I decided to operate the bed crossbow myself.

I aimed the bed crossbow at the head of the wooden man, and adjusted the pitch angle with difficulty. Just after a structural line in my eyes coincided with the arrow of the giant crossbow, I pulled the trigger decisively, and the first giant crossbow arrow with the magic property of 'sharpness' shot through. The faceplate of the Nacoma black iron armor was knocked out, and the black iron helmet on the wooden man's head was instantly knocked out. The black iron mask was easily pierced by the giant crossbow.

There was applause all around.

Immediately afterwards, the second giant crossbow bolt with the magical property of 'penetrating' pierced the chest of the Nacoma black iron armor. A buzzing tremor.

The lords standing aside were in an uproar,
I shot the third dual-attribute crossbow into the belly of the Nacoma black iron armor. With a sharp piercing sound, the giant crossbow pierced through the entire Nacoma black iron armor, and the giant crossbow flew back again. After more than 50 meters, it was inserted on the solid ground of the training ground.

The Marquis of Haslab and a group of lords froze in place, and the surroundings were silent for a while, and even the slightest breathing could not be heard...
