There was a faint sound of breaking through the air, followed immediately by a loud crash.
boom!
There was also a sharp sound of metal bending.
The metal arrow missed and penetrated the thick iron plate on the chest of the human-shaped wooden target, and the remaining kinetic energy caused it to fall straight back, making a "Peng" sound when it came into contact with the flat floor of the basement.
Colin stepped forward and took a closer look.
The wooden target is about the size of a human being, and its lower body is a huge weighted iron block.
And there is an iron plate that is thick enough to be called a block hanging on his chest.
The iron plate was about ten centimeters thick and had been completely penetrated by the metal arrow.
A satisfied expression appeared on Colin's face.
This was the first time he used all his strength to use a limit-breaking missing shot technique against a real object... When he killed the rogue North before, he only used one-tenth of his strength, which was far from reaching his full strength.
Now it seems that the power of the missing shot technique after breaking the limit has exceeded his imagination.
At least the steel armor witchcraft before the limit was broken was absolutely indefensible. If it were replaced by the steel armor after the limit was broken, it might only be 50-50.
'But the loss of the metal arrow... seems a little inappropriate.'
Colin slowly pulled out the arrow and thought to himself.
Now that the limit of Missing Arrow has been broken, the shortcoming of insufficient power has been made up, but it still requires Missing Arrow.
But the ordinary arrow lost is not convenient to carry... Maybe it's time to change to an "arrow lost" that is easier to carry.
After breaking through the limit once, his understanding of the art of missing arrows became deeper and deeper, and he had long understood that it was not limited to shooting arrows.
As long as it is made of suitable metal, after certain adjustments, it can be launched through the Missing Technique.
As soon as he thought of it, Colin walked upstairs and asked Arthur to go to the blacksmith shop to make some different model samples for him to test the effect.
After Arthur received the order, he immediately drove out. These days, chores like this have been left to him.
On the other side, Renee was preparing dinner, and little Demi was playing alone in the yard.
This yard should have been a specially maintained garden, but now it is overgrown with weeds, and there is a huge coconut tree on the left.
After moving in, they simply removed the grass once and did not take care of it carefully. Instead, these leftover flowers and weeds became a playground for little Demi to play.
She wasn't afraid of Colin, she just played around with a small wooden stick by herself.
Colin waved, called her over and pinched his face.
Demi is five years old this year. She has a very lovable appearance and personality. In her previous life, she must have been the type of child who received red envelopes from relatives during the New Year.
At the beginning, Colin was worried that it would be unsafe for her to play alone. For example, the coconut tree on the left often dropped coconuts, and he was worried that they would accidentally hit her.
But the children in this world are far less delicate than the children in the previous life, and they also know how to avoid many dangers.
Later, he got used to her being a five-year-old child playing around by herself.
After all, even her sister Renee isn't worried.
After playing with Demi for a while, Colin was almost rested and continued to practice witchcraft in the basement.
After all, he is not a non-human being with a monster-like determination.
Except for the gold paper, he is just an ordinary person. It is difficult for him to be like a machine and practice repeatedly every day.
Don't do anything else...no socializing and no entertainment.
So he would occasionally chat with Renee and squeeze Demi's fleshy little face.
As for Arthur, he was a boring gourd and could not let go in front of him, so he rarely chatted with him.
It’s already the second day since the new “Arrow Lost” model was built.
Last night on duty, another ferocious wild boar that was exactly the same came to attack.
But it accidentally bumped into Captain Holt's territory, and was strangled to death by vines before walking a few meters.
In order to distinguish it, this ferocious beast was named the black-maned giant pig by Holt last night.
The special feature is its unusual size.
The Dark Forest is an extremely dangerous place, and perhaps only the Lapp wizard on the entire island has the confidence to travel back and forth in it safely.
I don’t know where these ferocious beasts come from in the dark forest...
The only thing that is certain is that the beast is getting stronger and stronger. Colin has heard people sigh like this more than once.
After he came back from his shift and woke up, Arthur brought him several different samples of new lost arrow models.
There are the simplest steel balls, as well as fusiform ones, rhombus-shaped ones, etc.
Colin went to the basement to test without stopping.
Streams of light shot out from his hands quickly, hitting the iron plate in front of the wooden target full of holes.
Finally, after careful testing, Colin chose the fusiform shape. This form was faster and more powerful.
The customized fusiform arrows are only about the size of a knuckle, making them easy to carry.
The only disadvantage is that it is more difficult to make than other types, so the price is more expensive.
But it's also within the range that Colin can bear.
After that, there were giant black-maned pigs attacking me while on duty for several days.
And every time it was either on the territory of the Chiwen Gang next door or on the territory of their Lapp School.
Although it was eventually killed by the wizard every time, it relied on its strong vitality and huge size to cause huge losses in the fields every time.
After finishing his shift, Colin often saw many skinny farmers rescuing wheat, and the expressions on their faces became more and more ugly. Once he even saw a black and skinny old farmer lying on the ground picking up wheat ears while dropping them.
With tears.
This situation lasted until the eleventh day of his shift.
After his shift that morning, when he was about to return, Holt stopped him and other team members.
It's rare for the team members to get together again.
Holt took them to the open space outside the city gate, where a middle-aged man with black curly hair was standing.
"Lord of Price City." Holt greeted him. Colin and others also followed suit and said hello respectfully.
In terms of status, City Lord Price is at least on par with the three top apprentices in the school, and may be slightly better in terms of strength. Obviously, he needs to be treated with respect.
Price responded kindly.
Colin raised his head and glanced at Price. This was the first time he saw the legendary Lord of Blackstone City.
He looks like an ordinary middle-aged man, but his face is a bit old.
After a while, five more wizards from the Chiwen Gang rushed over.
Colin found the familiar figure of the thin wizard among them.
It was obvious that he also saw Catherine, his expression changed slightly, and he slightly hid his body behind his companion next to him.
Catherine did not notice him, or had forgotten him.
"Everyone is here, I'll keep the story short." At this time, Price said in a deep voice.
"In recent days, the black-maned giant pig has repeatedly attacked and caused huge damage to the fields. If this continues, a large number of people will die in the city this year.
A herd of wild boars should have appeared in the dark forest... They cannot be allowed to continue to reproduce.
So I call on you to take the initiative, and the time will be tonight, led by the most powerful wizard Holt... Mallory, do you have any objections?"
"No, City Lord." The wizard headed by the Chiwen Gang replied. He is the first-class apprentice of the Chiwen Gang.
"Very good. I will personally give out 150 magic stones as a reward later. If I can transport the giant black-bristle pig, I will buy it at the normal price." Price nodded, then glanced around and said slowly:
"Okay, that's all I have to say. Holt will be responsible for the specific arrangements."
After saying that, he turned around and boarded the luxurious carriage behind him, and drove away.
Next, Holt briefly talked about tactics,
In fact, it is to drive the wild boar away, causing it to panic and flee back to the dark forest, and then take this opportunity to track it to its lair and kill all the wild boars in one pot.
Of course, in view of the danger of the dark forest, if it goes too deep, the operation will be abandoned directly.
