Time flies and two days pass.

Because the Kobold Finger Button had found the mineral vein location in the southern part of the Little Blackstone Forest, Cardin sent this stupid dog to take the original members of his survey team and more than 160 Tauren warriors, and set out yesterday to go to the mineral vein location.

Establish a mining site and investigate the nearby tauren tribe.

In the craftsman's workshop!

A group of dwarf craftsmen were making mining tools. Originally there were no iron blocks, but due to the army's change of equipment, some of the severely damaged weapons were eliminated. Cardin directly asked Groat to smelt them and make mining tools.

Beside the production table, Cardin's brows were knitted together tightly. He was holding a half-iron, half-wooden weapon about half a meter long.

Grote, the dwarf craftsman, looked up at Cardin's expression nervously. After all, he was only as tall as Cardin's belly, so it was really awkward for the two of them to stand together.

Grote is very nervous now. Cardin gave him a weapon blueprint some time ago and asked him to forge it, and now he finally worked it out.

Therefore, he notified Cardin to come and take a look, but Cardin took it from his hand and shot several arrows at a grass target ten meters away. He kept frowning, looking at this strange weapon, and fell into deep thought.

among.

"What do you think of this repeating crossbow?" Cardin glanced at Grote and asked seriously.

That's right, he asked Grote to build it to represent Zhuge Liannu.

However, after shooting several arrows in a row, it was restored, but he felt it was too useless.

"Continuous crossbow?" This was the first time Grote heard the name of this weapon.

“The structure is unique and the idea is very interesting!”

Grote saw Cardin's serious expression again and knew that Cardin wanted to know his true words. He then pondered for a few seconds and said: "The idea of ​​continuous firing is very interesting, but the rear device of the continuous crossbow is not very powerful. The maximum

The shooting range is only twenty-five meters!"

"What if..." Grote looked at Cardin hesitantly and hesitated.

"Speak directly, I won't blame you!" Cardin motioned for Grote to continue.

"If... you use it for military purposes, then its value is almost zero." Grote said cautiously.

"Yeah, it's like a toy!"

Cardin looked at the Zhuge Liannu on the production table with a wry smile. He originally imagined that the legendary Zhuge artifact in his previous life could be glorious in this world, but when he actually touched the real thing and shot a few arrows, he felt that it was really him.

Tasteless.

What can you do with a maximum range of 25 meters?

The archers in this world are far from comparable to those in the previous world. Their shooting range is more than 150 meters. Especially the orcs who use heavy bows can shoot to 200 meters away.

The 25-meter Zhuge Liannu is really like a toy.

Grote couldn't help but smile when he heard about toys. Cardin's words about toys were very appropriate.

Of course, the continuous fire and structure are still very interesting to Grote.

"Can the range of this thing be increased?" Cardin asked, still unwilling to give up.

After all, the Zhuge Liannu is very stable and can be used as long as the head is not stupid and the limbs are not disabled.

After all, a weapon like the bow is not something ordinary people can use.

And if Zhuge Liannu can increase its power, it will definitely be a magical weapon in the military.

"As the recoil force increases, its wooden structure is very easy to be damaged. If it is made of iron, its weight will be greatly increased."

Grote shook his head and said, although this kind of repeating crossbow can fire continuously, it is too difficult to reach the power and range of a bow. If you have this time, it is better to build a few more bows, which are much more practical than this repeating crossbow.

.

Of course, he didn't dare to say these words.

It was obvious that Cardin was looking forward to this repeating crossbow, so naturally he couldn't tell him directly.

However, Grote's eyes suddenly lit up and he said: "Master Chief, I heard that the gray elf Master Feisi knows how to construct runes. If he can add runes to the repeating crossbow, then I can try to improve it and make it

The range is greatly increased."

"However, even if the blessing rune is added, its power will definitely not reach the range of the bow!"

The gray elf Feis naturally knew that after all, an orc tribe attracted gray elves to join, and Storm was still the only one.

"Blessing runes?" Cardin was stunned, and then nodded. He knew that Faith knew runes, but he didn't know whether Cardin or Faith could bless the runes on it.

Although Cardin has never seen runes, there are many kinds of this ancient profession. As for which kind Feisi belongs to, he doesn't know.

However, Cardin was a little disappointed. What he wanted was to be able to equip weapons on a large scale. Groat said that the power of the blessing runes was not as powerful as the bow.

What's more, blessing a rune repeating crossbow is okay, blessing hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands, it will probably exhaust the gray elf dwarf Faith to death.

Obviously, this Zhuge Liannu is worthless!

"Actually, Sir Chief, this repeating crossbow may be used by the assassins and scouts of the tribe, especially the assassins. This repeating crossbow can fire in rapid succession, which is very suitable for assassins to use for close-range assassinations." Suddenly, Grote said.

"assassin?"

Cardan was stunned, then overjoyed, yes, this Zhuge Liannu is easy to carry and can fire continuously, but it cannot be used at long distances. But for assassins to assassinate at close range, the power of this crossbow is still good.

"Okay, let's give it to the assassins. The Military Intelligence Brigade is also preparing to form an assassin organization. You are modifying this repeating crossbow, but it is still too big!" Cardin smiled, finally finding a suitable use for it.

"yes!"

Grote was relieved when he saw Cardin smiling. After all, Cardin had a good temper, but he was a wild boar after all, and an angry wild boar was very scary.

"Wait, wait, why didn't I think of that?" Suddenly, Cardin slapped his fierce pig head and shouted with joy in his eyes.

Cardan suddenly became like this, which made the dwarf Grote, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, be frightened. If his body was not round enough, he would jump up.

Grote looked at Cardin strangely.

Guess what the Lord thought of?

After staying in Stormwind for such a long time, Groat had already understood Cardin's peculiarities. Wooden plows, digging tools, javelins used by kobolds, scimitars of war pig cavalry, and current repeating crossbows, it can be said that Cardin's

Dan's ideas came one after another, both civilian and military. Groat had completely convinced Cardin, the wild boar chief.

"Since the power of this repeating crossbow cannot be increased, would it be okay to directly expand it ten times?" Cardin looked at Grote excitedly.

That's right, since the repeating crossbow doesn't work, then make it into a bed crossbow.

The bed crossbow was so terrifying that even a fourth-level transcendent wouldn't dare to resist it.

Although he had never seen the name of Bed Crossbow in his previous life, there was a strong mention in historical weapons records.
