Chapter 151 The First Shot
Gawain said the name of the weapon that he had been brewing in his heart for a long time. Nicholas Egg obviously did not respond much to the word, but Rebecca next to him was already happy: "This name sounds very powerful!"
"Is it amazing if you understand it?" Amber squinted at Rebecca, "How come these words come together..."
"Lord Ancestor is like this. You can always think of some names that sound very powerful even if you don't understand what they mean," Rebecca said with a proud face, as if she was saying that she was very powerful, "If you have an opinion, it is purely Envy - who made you not have such a powerful ancestor."
Amber immediately raised his eyebrows: "No matter how powerful your ancestor is, I dug it out!"
When Gawain saw that the two of them were trying to confuse the topic again, he immediately stood in the middle: "You two are quiet, you two are quiet! We are here to do business!"
The silver-white huge comic floated by the side and watched silently from beginning to end. At this time, seeing that the two "female humans" were finally quiet, he said calmly: "Then talk about the 'heat energy'. Ray gun' it... I have no problem processing parts, but I have to prepare drawings first, or if the structure is simple, I can explain it directly to me on the spot, but it is better to compare some real objects."
"In fact, we have already made the main parts by hand, and now we mainly study together, how to combine them firmly and shape a 'shell' suitable for human use," Gawain said, taking out The base plate of the magic capacitor, the magic storage crystal, the heat ray base plate, and several blueprints with schematic diagrams.
The huge and funny silver-white voice suddenly buzzed: "Why do you call me Eggy!"
"Don't worry, don't worry, you can make up your own brains - let's talk about the location of the rune trigger first..."
Gawain's conception of the heat ray gun has not been around for a day or two. In fact, after the appearance of the crystal grenade, he was thinking about what the second weapon that can be equipped with a large number of soldiers should be.
crystal grenade,
The throwing explosive weapon is powerful and extremely simple in structure. After the basic machine tool is built, it has achieved small-scale mass production. Byron is training soldiers to familiarize themselves with this new "magic prop". However, the limitations of crystal grenades are also obvious: the throwing distance is limited by human arm strength, and it is basically impossible to achieve precise strikes. It requires a large range of motion and a long preparation time when throwing, and there is an explosion delay after throwing...
Obviously, soldiers need another kind of mortal armament to make up for the lack of crystal grenades, and it's preferably a long-range weapon - the world has gone far enough in swordsmanship.
Guns are the easiest thing to think of for Gawain, but it is extremely difficult to achieve in this world.
Without gunpowder propelling, or even steam propelling, it would be extremely difficult for anti-aircraft projectiles. Gawain has tried many methods of creating instantaneous high-temperature and high-pressure gas, but all of them have had little success; he also put his ideas into "magic" For example, using the repulsive force array to push the projectile, but soon he realized that with the current technology, it is difficult to reduce the repulsive force array to the extent that it can be engraved on the bottom of the gun, and even if it is really reduced to this level, a single The instantaneous thrust of the Repulsion Array is also not enough to give the warhead enough lethality.
He also took into account the convenience of using magic to realize the "rail gun" in advance, using the wind-earth hybrid rune group that can generate a strong magnetic field to create orbitals and shoot projectiles, but he soon found that there is currently a lack of a A "control circuit" with a fast enough response to realize the quick opening and closing of each rune group - the traditional rune trigger is a mechanical operation, and it is difficult to sequentially switch a large number of rune groups on the entire track during the projectile feeding process. , and the use of rune connections to achieve functions similar to clock circuits...Unfortunately, there is still no clue in this regard.
The differences in the laws of physics make many technological breakthroughs that are difficult on earth easier in this world, but at the same time, it also makes many things that are easy on earth difficult here.
As for the traditional bow and crossbow in this world, it is not that Gao Wen has not thought about improving the magic guide, but even if the bow and crossbow is improved, it is difficult to achieve "cheap, mass production, fast strike, continuous strike, low training demand, "Great performance potential" and many other requirements...
Perhaps when the magic industry technology tree reaches a certain level, the traditional bow and crossbow will re-enter Gawain's line of sight, but at least not yet.
After a lot of hard work and attempts, Gawain stroked his boundary one day, and suddenly Fuzhi realized one thing in his heart:
Why do you have to use biu bullets? !
What made him realize this was Rebecca who was bouncing past him at the time—or, to put it more directly, a bouncing fireball shooter...
At that time, he suddenly realized where his thinking was limited: no matter what method he used to push the physical projectile, even if he used magical thinking, he was still limited by the experience of the earth, since the world itself has various Such a powerful spell, why not just throw the "bullet" aside and study those spells carefully?
After collecting and sorting out the information on various basic spells, what finally entered his line of sight was Fireball Shot... No, it was Searing Ray.
And after the base plate of the scorching rays was manufactured, he needed to confront the inherent experience in his mind once again.
What form does the new weapon need?
Several people sat down beside a workbench in the machine shop, Nicholas egg floated on the opposite side of the workbench, and those substrates, crystals, and blueprints were placed on the table. Looking at these things, Gawain felt that the "classic firearm shape" in his mind might not work here.
These are palm-sized hexagonal metal plates. They have no barrels, no magazines, bolts, and chamber structures. They are more suitable for being assembled into a disc-like shape than the long classic firearms. thing.
Of course, Gawain could forcibly follow the firearms on Earth to make them a weird shell, because he knew that the classic shape was the result of countless years of actual combat: the handle is easy to hold, and the long barrel is easy to point. and aiming, but the problem is...
Considering the actual situation of the scorching ray substrate and the efficiency of the energy supply of the magic array, the muzzle of the gun will probably be a stack of palm-sized metal blocks. It is more reliable to use estimates...
Considering that the next generation of weapons may even shoot Frostbolts and Ball Lightnings, or even be used to unleash thunderstorms, summon elements, and generate shields, it is even more unnecessary to stereotype this weapon in the shape of a classic firearm on Earth.
Gawain looked at those metal substrates, tried to get rid of all images related to "guns" in his mind, and told himself over and over again: This is a magic item, this is a magic item...
After almost hypnotizing himself, he picked up the substrates one by one and gestured on his arm: "How about we assemble them into a gauntlet?"
Rebecca tried hard to imagine, and suddenly shook Gawain's arm happily: "It sounds very handsome! I have been thinking about how to make these boards into the shape of a staff, but I didn't think of this at all!"
Amber pouted: "Hey, what's the matter, I also thought of it - isn't the stalker's hidden arrow in this form? I just didn't have time to say..."
It's rare that Rebecca's brain circuit was solidified once, and it was overtaken by Amber...
And Nicholas Egg was confused by the side: "What is the hidden arrow? How to assemble it into the gauntlet? Speaking of which, I still haven't tossed and understood the structure and principle of your hands..."
Gawain looked at the iron ball star with strange eyes, and suddenly realized where the biggest shortcoming of this golden thigh is: it's okay to just let him build parts according to the drawings, but when it comes to ergonomics, this guy is 100% blinded. As a ball, how can he know how to use his hands!
But this is not important, Gawain soon sent someone to find a gauntlet, and then explained his idea to Nicholas Egg while drawing on the drawing: "Like this, put the searing ray substrate on the front end. , the magic capacitor is placed at the back end, and the copper matrix is used as a guide connection in the middle. The control of the rune trigger can extend a metal wire from the side of the gauntlet and rely on the thumb to pull it. Of course, in order to prevent accidental touch, it also needs to be With a safety device similar to the one on the crystal grenade, we can get one between the magic capacitor and the searing ray substrate, which is the safest..."
"Simple, simple," Nicholas Egg listened as he floated up and down, "what else do you need?"
Amber said from the side: "Don't make the gauntlet into one piece, the lower part should be adjustable for tightness."
Gawain glanced at her a little surprised, and the latter rolled his eyes: "Don't really think that I'm ignorant - at least I've used sleeve arrows."
"Okay, okay, your suggestion is really useful," Gawain said with tears in his eyes, then nodded to Nicholas Egg, "That's it for now, the main thing now is to get a sample to see if it works, and then we won't know until the actual test. What needs to be improved."
There was a low humming sound in Nicholas Egg, and the nearby metal ingots and two kinds of substrates on the table floated: "Then look at me! It will be done in a while!"
This iron ball star said it well, he really did it in a while - under the condition that the precision requirements are low and only a few components need to be processed, those metal ingots and substrates even took less than a minute. Shape and put together.
It was an unremarkable gauntlet, and it was even quite "stupid" from a traditional point of view.
In order to stuff the rune base plate into the protective shell, and to reserve space for the rune trigger, the assembled "heat ray gun" makes the entire gauntlet more than two laps thicker than the traditional gauntlet. Its upper half Part of it bulges high and has an ellipsoid shape. An opening is reserved at the front end. Below the opening, there is a small piece of metal shield that extends out. The metal shield is actually a "safety" device - when it is plugged back, the magic The flow will be cut off, the user's hand can move freely, but the heat ray gun cannot shoot, and when the guard is pulled out, the heat ray gun will enter the standby state, and the user's hand will not be able to lift up. You won't get scorched through your palms due to carelessness...
Since it was only a test item assembled for the first time, its image could not be described as gorgeous, but Gawain still wore this clumsy gauntlet on his arm with a little excitement, adjusted the tension and then buckled it.
He pulled the safety device on the front of the gauntlet and put the metal finger cuff on his thumb, then pointed the front of the gauntlet to the ground ahead.
Nicholas Egg turned slightly, and an iron-gray metal ingot floated past and landed on the spot Gawain aimed at.
"How many soldiers are in our territory now?" Gawain asked Rebecca casually while aiming.
Rebecca thought for a while: "The newly trained recruits haven't left the camp yet. At present, they don't count as two knights, but only as combat soldiers... 106 people."
Gawain pulled the mechanism, and with a soft sound of "pop", a hot beam shot out from the gauntlet. The metal ingot on the ground was directly hit, and it rolled on the ground several times due to the small-scale explosion caused by the magic , shedding a flurry of sparks and metal shards along the way.
When the tumbling stopped, its surface was already red, and even a deep pit was melted.
"Then, we have one hundred and six second-level mortals who can use searing rays."
(I recommend a book, "My Daughter is a Ghost", which is lighthearted and full of brain holes. It is a story about raising a daughter (no mistake), which can effectively alleviate the book shortage. Is this a baby dad and bear child...)
