Lord: I have a skill talent tree

Although Paul's words made sense, Ethan did not agree. Of course, he did not directly refuse, but just said that he needed to consider it.

The two talked about some issues related to material supplies. Ethan basically met the other party's requirements, and Paul left with satisfaction.

After Paul left, Sophia came in with a copper hat and a mechanical model.

The mechanical model looked like a small cannon, installed on a tray full of gears. As for what it was used for, it was not clear.

Recently, Sophia was obsessed with brain wave research. She often ran to Turing Manor before dawn, and sometimes she even lived there because she was too fascinated. Then she brought back some unnecessary little things every now and then, saying that they were research results, and then asked for money.

When Ethan saw that she brought something back again today, he knew that she was here to ask for money again.

As expected, Sophia put the model on the table as soon as she entered the door, and then said excitedly:

"Look! What good stuff I brought back for you!"

Ethan laughed: "Sophia, you brought back a cup last time, saying that it can automatically stir coffee.

To be honest, using brain waves to drive the cup to rotate and then stir the coffee is indeed a very creative idea.

But such a small thing costs more than 4 million. I think it is more cost-effective to stir it with a spoon."

"Why do you only look at the surface value?" Sophia said coquettishly: "It is the perfect combination of human will and machinery.

Also, if you think that is not worth it, then take a look at this today, I guarantee you will be amazed."

Sophia said, regardless of whether Ethan was willing to watch or not, and fiddled with it by herself.

She first installed a magic stone on the cannon model, and then installed an egg in the muzzle, then put on the copper cap, and said with a smile: "Watch it!"

As she said, the copper cap and the small model lit up.

The next scene made Ethan's face change drastically. Sophia began to turn her head casually. As her sight changed, the muzzle of the cannon model also turned.

Finally, Sophia stared at Ethan with a smirk on her face, and then shouted: "Fire!"

"Bang!"

An egg flew towards Ethan. With a "pop", it hit his forehead, and the egg liquid splashed everywhere.

Ethan reached out to wipe the egg liquid, stared at the cannon model in disbelief, and looked at it again and again.

Oh my! No way!

This thing is so familiar! Isn't this the helmet display system of the pilot in the previous life!

This system allows the pilot to directly control the aiming of the weapon through the movement of the head and the direction of the eyes, so as to achieve precise strikes.

The system integrates optoelectronic systems, radar tracking, laser ranging and calculation ballistic equipment, and provides a rough target position through the pilot's visual instructions, while the specific calculation work is automatically completed by the optoelectronic system and computer.

The advantage of this system is that it can greatly improve the reaction speed and accuracy of the weapon system.

I didn't expect that such a sci-fi thing is now just a broken copper helmet with a few gears?

"Hahaha..." Sophia laughed when she saw Ethan being hit, and she was even more proud when she saw Ethan's shocked face.

While taking a towel to wipe Ethan, she laughed: "How is it? Is this [Visual Strike] helmet powerful? Wherever the eyes look, you can hit it. If it is installed on the fire blast cannon, can it save a lot of aiming time?"

Because he was too shocked, Ethan couldn't speak for a while, and he held it in for a long time before he said: "Awesome!"

"Haha! Do you still think brain wave research is useless now?"

"Come on, let me try!" Ethan grabbed the helmet and put it on his head: "How do I use this?"

"Just press the switch here."

As Sophia helped press the switch, the cannon began to move with Ethan's eyes.

"Damn! It's so fun!"

Ethan played with excitement like a child for a long time, and finally remembered the business, and said:

"Can this thing be installed on the Pyroblast Cannon now?"

Sophia spread her hands: "Not for now, this is just a model. If it is really used on the Pyroblast Cannon, the control mechanism, orbit calculation, mechanical transmission device, and... In short, except for the control logic, everything else needs to be changed.

All these require money to study, but now the funds for brain wave research have bottomed out, I am afraid I don't have the money to study these."

"Haha!" Ethan smiled bitterly.

After the initial shock, he calmed down at this time.

Although this helmet is really good, it can greatly improve the reaction speed of the Pyroblast when used on it, but that's all.

For the land-based artillery on the Solan Mountain Fortress, it is actually not very useful.

Because the defense from a high position does not require quick response, or even much accuracy, as long as it can be shot far and exploded into a crowd, it is done, and this thing is not needed at all.

The only scenarios where it can be applied are probably those where you need to keep moving and react quickly. For example, air combat or naval combat.

But these two scenarios are impossible to appear under the current circumstances, because there are no planes here and the orcs have no ships.

Therefore, spending a lot of effort to develop this thing is the same as the previous automatic mixing cup, which is useful but not much! It is not worth spending that money!

However, Ethan suddenly thought of a possible application scenario.

You must know that the maximum range of the current Pyroblast Cannon is more than 12,000 meters, which is 12 kilometers. This distance is far beyond the visual range.

That is to say, the Pyroblast Cannon already has the ability to strike beyond visual range.

At this time, if I can let my Super Eagle wear this kind of helmet and place the Pyroblast Cannon in a safe position behind Solan Mountain.

If the orcs come, I can control the Super Eagle at home to carry out precise artillery strikes from a distance.

This not only monitors the battlefield in real time, but also ensures the safety of the Pyroblast Cannon. The most important thing is that even if the Pyroblast Cannon is broken, it can be replaced slowly and peacefully, without being affected by the war on the front line.

Thinking of this, Ethan laughed foolishly, and then told Sophia about his idea.

"If you can make what I want according to my requirements, I will immediately invest 50 million in you, and if there are other results later, I will increase the investment."

Sophia was quite surprised to hear Ethan's wonderful ideas: "Your idea is really interesting.

In theory, I think it should be feasible.

However, it may not be so simple to develop it in practice. You can allocate funds first, and Hermione and I will try it!"

"No problem, I will allocate 10 million to you first, can you do this thing first? The orcs are coming!"

"No problem!"

...

Just when Ethan was chatting with Sophia, Lanchester knocked on the door and came in.

"Master! Something happened to the Holy Light Church?"

"Hmm? What happened?"

"According to your instructions, the Holy Light Church sent people to cause trouble for a foreign noble, but not only did they fail to accomplish their mission, their people were also detained.

Now those foreign nobles have united to cause trouble for the Holy Light Church, and have now surrounded the Holy Light Church."

"What?" Ethan thought he had heard it wrong: "Are those outsiders too stubborn, or can't Capudo lift the sword?"

"They have two sages and a swordsman, and Lord Capudo seems to be unable to withstand it."

Ethan was speechless. When did the Holy Light Church become so weak that a few outsiders dared to take advantage of it?

"Let's go and take a look!"
