Summoning the Holy Sword

"Magic construction?"

After hearing Marin's words, Rhodes froze. Of course, he knew the magical configuration of the Xenia family. After all, the Xenia family started by doing this, and now almost all the magical forces of the Principality of Muen They were all made by the Xenia family. In the words of Rhodes' time, the Xenia family was like the exclusive arms manufacturer of the Principality of Munn. It is for this reason that they were able to rank among the top three families of the Principality of Munn, and it is for this reason that Marin will be followed by the Elanic Consortium of the Kingdom of Light. As a family heir, Marlene naturally had the opportunity to contact and learn about the intelligence of high-end magic equipment. If she can be grasped, it is tantamount to mastering the secret information of the Xenia family. Because of this, Ma Linping said nothing about his family, which is also a very normal phenomenon.

However, Rhodes did not expect that Malin would take the initiative to bring this matter to her. Although the magical structure of the Xenia family did have great power, they never made transactions in this area outside the royal family. And Rhodes knew that he couldn't afford the money, so he never thought about it. But now, Marilyn would take the initiative to bring this up?

"Yes."

Marilyn looked at Rhodes, then nodded slightly, and continued to speak.

"Our Xenia family was developing a new type of magic guide equipment. The specific principle is not clear, but ... In short, the family intends to make equipment similar to a small and can carry magic guide gun. Initial results have been achieved. They are easy to carry and powerful, and they are well suited to the task of range suppression. "

"Is there such a thing?"

Hearing this, Rhodes was also surprised. Of course, he knew that the magical equipment of the Xenia family was very strong, but it was also some ordinary magical equipment. The development of weapons in this world was different from that of the earth. What can be related to magic equipment is still some cold weapons, such as swords, shields, armor, knight lances and the like. Like Annie's Adamantite heavy shield, in fact, it can be regarded as a kind of magic guide equipment. However, in terms of hot weapons, the achievements of Dragon Soul Continent are actually quite limited. Perhaps because of the influence of magic props, the development of magic guide equipment has been unsatisfactory. In terms of long-range weapons, in addition to bows and crossbows, dwarves have indeed produced modern civilization weapons such as flintlocks, but this type of rifle has little value and strength in front of crossbows, because these metal made The firing gun is inspired by the magic crystal collision and firing, the range is not very far, and the magic array cannot be etched. In turn, a crossbow blessed by magic power is not only farther in range than a flare gun, but also more powerful with those magic arrows.

And here, we will talk about the differences between magic props and magic guide equipment.

Also as weapons and equipment, magic props have good and excellent effects, but the disadvantage is that the effects are too singular and must be activated by the holder's own soul power. Not only that, the power of magic props will also fluctuate accordingly. In many hero legends, it is often said that in the face of the crisis of death, the heroes will hold up the weapons in their hands, and when they sense their consciousness and anger, those magic weapons will also exert extraordinary powers. a little. In this respect, the range of power of magic props is not fixed. When a person is desperately exerting power, maybe magic props will burst out of powerful power, but when his power is weak, the power of magic props Will weaken. And even those equipped weapons with constant spells also have a single weakness of their surname. Of course, it is not without some powerful magic props that can provide users with powerful power, but such magic props are generally legendary or even fantasy-level existence, and it is almost impossible to have one.

In turn, the magic guide equipment is known for its process and stable surname. Although it also needs the holder's soul power to inspire, it does not change because of the strength of the holder, because they use the power inherent in the magic equipment itself, not the power from the outside. This equipment is not very useful for those who are strong, but it is very useful for ordinary people. After all, not everyone's soul power can be strong enough to reach the level of elite or master.

With the progress and development of magic science and magic, magic equipment and magic props have gradually begun to merge. To this era, there have been many fusion products of magic props and magic technology. They have the power of magic props The stable and diverse surnames of the magic equipment. However, these gears are still closer to magic props right now. It's as if Rhodes and his subordinates have the "Four Elements Guardian" ability, guild badges made by Rabis, and decorations for remote communication. But even so, the manufacturing of these equipment still can not reach the level of assembly line. Because these magical equipment require very good alchemy skills, and even the special skills of the Belhems. This kind of thing is of course impossible to manufacture in large quantities.

If the equipment manufactured by Labis' Bellhems alchemy technique focuses on multiple surnames, then the magical equipment of the Shania family pays more attention to stable surnames. Previously, Rhodes faced that in the Solagang Mountains. When the fallen angel polluted by chaos, the holy hymn used by the other party is one of them. It uses the technology of magic technology to store the divine power, which can not only trigger the guardian spell on the holy hymn, but also release a positive energy shock wave to attack the enemy.

However, no matter what kind of magic guide equipment, the so-called popularity is only a relative term. With the power of the Xenia family, the magic guide equipment provided to the Principality of Munn is only enough for their elite troops to use, and those are not seen. The soldiers in the border area had a magic sword, wearing a magic armor or something. And high-end products such as magic guide guns can only be seen in those large and strategic cities, because the manufacturing skills of these magic guide equipment are very high, and the materials required are also very precious and scarce. Therefore, it does not have the significance of mass production.

From this point of view, magic skills are only used as a supplement to strengthen the power of magic props and weapons. However, it has not been possible to reduce and popularize the manufacturing cost of magic props to a level close to the civilian population.

But ... Rhode looked at Marin, but he was a little puzzled. He felt that this matter should not be so simple, because in the game, the Xenia family was not able to come up with such equipment at that time, they were almost going to be destroyed by the kingdom of the night, at this time hiding again Good things are useless. Now, Malin said to herself that there is such a thing ... Rhode knows very well that the improvement and research and development of any weapon cannot be achieved by patting his head after two or three years. If Marin said The Xenia family has this kind of thing, then it means that they have studied it for at least ten years, but then they have not been able to take it out, and they have not used it to arm the royal army?

This is too unscientific. As a modern person, Rodby knows the power of rpg. If the Xenia family has developed equipment that can be carried by soldiers alone and possesses the power of magic guns, it is almost completely okay. Rewrite the war history of the Dragon Soul continent. However, such a thing is so invisible that it disappears?

"Yes, Rhodes, this is the final gun being developed by our Xenia family. I have already tested it during the suppression of the rebellion. There is no problem in terms of power and coverage. As long as well-trained soldiers can 艹Work, but ......... "

Sure enough, there is still behind.

"but what?"

Hearing here, Rhode was also interested. He crossed his hands and looked at Marin curiously. Of course, Rhodes had heard of the fact that Marin led a magical troop when he suppressed the southern rebellion, but the specific situation was unknown. But from now on, these magical units should be the new weapons being tested? Since Marin has personally tested it, the power must be guaranteed, but it must sound like a big hidden danger, so it hasn't been listed?

"Expensive."

Soon, Marin answered with helpless spread out her hands.

"The current doomsday gun requires the purest and most powerful magic crystals to be able to excite, and the duration is not long and consumes a lot. A 300-percent magic crystal can only persist for half of a continuous excitation Hour. The range of damage caused is equivalent to the range of three fireballs. Although the power is guaranteed, this consumption is really a problem ... I have calculated that a battle alone will cost enough. There are a million gold coins. So right now, the Xenia family has decided to give up the development of this weapon. "

"hiss----!"

Hearing here, even Rhode took a breath of air, and he finally understood why the Xenia family would give up the development of this magic weapon. One million gold coins can only cause the damage of three fireballs. . In fact, even if you find a mage to buy a scroll of fireball, each scroll can only have a maximum of one hundred gold coins. The problem that can be solved by three hundred gold coins will cost dozens of times more than this. It's just who will use it. If you say that the general deterrent power of a nuclear bomb is good, but according to Marin, the power of this magic weapon is just a weakened version of the magic weapon. It costs more than the magic weapon. It ca n’t be used for strategic deterrence, mass production, and expensive items. It ’s really a waste. It ’s no wonder that the Xenia family will give up. With this spare time, they will raise a few alchemists and mages to make fire oil Not the same effect as the Fireball Scroll? And it's more powerful and saves money a bit. But ......... "Don't you think we have so much money and magic crystal to do this? Marlene? What I need is a unit that can fight for a long time, not just fire and disarm. Something. "

Rhodes does not intend to shoulder the heavy task of reforming the Dragon Soul mainland weapon history, and he does not feel that he has any advantages compared to the Xenia family. Although he has traveled to this world, Rhodes has no doubt The understanding of equipment and construction is actually not very deep. Coupled with the existence of the Xenia family as a manufacturer of magic guide equipment, there is no way to take this, so Rhodes is naturally unable.

If it is just a matter of attack method, then Rhodes may also provide some suggestions through the firing methods such as machine guns and sniper rifles that he has seen on the earth, but the problem lies in the source of the trouble at hand. It seems that on earth, if it takes 100,000 US dollars to make a bullet, then no one will use a gun again, it is more convenient to use a kitchen knife to chop. Not to mention there are many more convenient alternatives in Dragon Soul Mainland.

"Of course, Rhodes. But I think the power of the end gun is in line with your requirements. Although there is no way to mass-produce the armed forces, I hope that I can use the power of Miss Rabis to make a transformation and see if I can To gain something. "

"Labis?"

At this point, Rhodes froze slightly, and Marin nodded with a smile.

"Yes, Rhodes. Our Xenia family uses alchemy techniques inherited from ancient times, but this is a technique that belongs to us humans after all. The alchemy technique of Bell Helms adopted by Miss Rabis Maybe there will be some gains in this area, so if I can, I hope to work with Miss Labis to see if we can improve the end gun. "

Facing Mariin's words, Rhodes fell into silence. I have to admit, this is indeed a good idea. And in the face of the undead army's sea tactics, it is best to use a large-scale killing weapon. The magic guide is too expensive and the consumption is too high. Although Rhode's mercenary construction system can be built, the asking price is too high. High, the price of a magical cannon is almost equal to three statues of the holy girl. With Rhodes' current financial resources, naturally he can only stare drooling. But if you can get the terminal gun, then ... "... what's your opinion?"

"I can make a decision on behalf of the family, Rhodes, and this weapon has been abolished, and if Miss Rabis can improve it, we will act with respect to your wishes."

"Okay, it's over to you, Marlene."

In the end, Rhode nodded.
