Chapter 74: Magical Instruments, Magical Weapons, and War Machines
(Bill 23rd update. Start sleeping less tonight~)
Everyone looked at Mu Yingying. Mu Yingying's eyes became brighter and brighter, and her stern eyes were full of confidence:
"We can only learn from the model of the Black Iron Guild, but we cannot copy it. Because the Black Iron Guild only has one product, and that is Black Iron! All of our technologies are for one product, Black Iron.
This is the natural advantage of the Black Iron Guild.
But we are different. We process dark iron into different items. Including daily ritual tools, agricultural tools, craftsmen's tools, magic tools, magic weapons, etc.
Our technologies are scattered and difficult, or even impossible, to unify.
So I think we shouldn’t start with the technology, but directly with the product!”
"A war weapon is a very good product. A war weapon may contain more than a dozen, dozens, hundreds or even thousands of magic weapons or magic weapons.
We can use our best technologies to create the best war weapon components.
Finally, combine all the components into a powerful war weapon!
In the process of creating war weapons, we gradually disclosed some of our technologies, learned the patent rules of the Black Iron Guild, and formulated our own patent system."
After Mu Yingying finished speaking, everyone was silent for a moment; then there was bright applause.
Even Zhang Hao's eyes when he looked at Mu Yingying were filled with wonder.
Amazing, really amazing. Mu Yingying can be said to have created a new trend. There is quite a bit of technology investment in this.
It can be said that Mu Yingying's decision greatly promoted the technological progress of Qixia Country.
At this moment, the way Zhang Hao looked at Mu Yingying was a little different.
Unlike herself, Mu Yingying can do it, which is really smart!
Seemingly seeing Zhang Hao's surprised look, Mu Yingying suddenly winked at Zhang Hao proudly, very playfully.
Hum, this girl is not bad either!
With Mu Yingying's suggestion, everyone suddenly became enlightened and quickly sorted out a preliminary set of rules and regulations.
Zhang Hao was very eager to learn, and did not hide his ignorance at all. He directly asked everyone: What is the magic weapon of war? We used to smelt black iron, and we only heard the name of the magic weapon of war, but never saw its shape.
"Let me tell you!" Mu Pengcheng spoke up, but was pushed down by the younger sister. Master Mu was under great pressure, so it was time to show off.
"Brother, if we want to make it clear what a 'war weapon' is, we have to start with ordinary magic weapons, magic weapons, and spiritual weapons."
"We are already accustomed to the three terms of magic weapon, magic weapon, and spiritual treasure, but no one wants to understand why these three terms are used. They just simply regard them as the three levels of practicing magic weapon.
But in fact, magical artifacts, magical treasures, spiritual treasures, and even talisman treasures, etc., are forms of cultivation equipment, not levels.
A magic weapon is not necessarily bad, and a magic weapon is not necessarily powerful.
The focus of magic weapons is on "dharma". Simply put, they are items with "mana". Generally speaking, magic weapons are indeed relatively low-level. But it does not mean that magic weapons are necessarily inferior.
If a magic weapon is equipped with magical powers from the Nascent Soul stage, then the function of this magic weapon can even exceed that of the magic weapon.
The most significant difference between magic weapons and magic weapons, and spiritual treasures, is that they cannot be as flexible and changeable as magic weapons, and can be enlarged or reduced.
For example, the princess's spear is a magic weapon, not a magic weapon. But the actual combat ability of the spear even exceeds that of the magic weapon."
"Compared with magic weapons, the refining of magic weapons is simple and fast, and can be replenished in large quantities.
Moreover, the requirements for use are simple and do not require long-term refining. Once you are familiar with it, you can exert your peak combat effectiveness. Once the magic weapon is damaged, it will not cause harm to the spiritual consciousness.
Therefore, magic weapons are widely used in the army; the attack power of some powerful magic weapons is not weaker than what we usually call spiritual weapons."
"Besides, the emphasis on magic treasures and spiritual treasures lies in the word 'treasure'. Magic treasures can be retracted and retracted freely, and can even be taken into the body.
I wonder if Shidi has ever heard of the name ‘Hidden Swordsmanship’?”
Zhang Hao shook his head.
"The Hidden Sword Technique is the earliest recorded method of refining magic weapons; now almost all methods of refining magic weapons have evolved from the Hidden Sword Technique.
After the foundation building period, cultivators can use the sword-hiding technique to open an acupoint in the body specifically for hiding swords, which are flying swords.
On the flying sword, there will also be a corresponding formation, which we usually call the "magic weapon formation". It is actually a space formation that cooperates with the Hidden Sword Technique and echoes the acupoint space opened up by the Hidden Sword Technique.
Usually, people will use the "Chengjian Point" located under the tongue to practice Tibetan Sword Art.
The other magic weapons are the same as the flying sword."
"Then there's the Lingbao. The biggest feature of the Lingbao is that 'the treasure has a spirit, like an arm.' It's hard to understand without personal experience. So I can't explain clearly."
"Now let's talk about magical weapons. As we said before, whether they are magical weapons, magic weapons, or spiritual treasures, most of them are single. Even if there are complete sets, they are mostly monotonous.
A war weapon is a machine composed of multiple magic weapons or magic weapons.
Some huge war instruments are complicated beyond imagination.
For example, in the Kingdom of Canglan, there is a checkpoint on the Nanqiu Fengling Mountains called "Qingtian Pass"; Qingtian Pass got its name because there is a "Qingtian Pavilion" there.
Qingtian Pavilion is 30 feet square and 18 feet high. It is said that more than 14,000 magical artifacts are used in the whole body, and each magical artifact is comparable to a top-grade magical weapon.
It is a fortress-level war weapon. It can fly in the sky, and wherever it passes, even the Nascent Soul stage is unstoppable."
A flying fortress with a radius of 100 meters and a height of nearly 60 meters appeared in Zhang Hao's mind. The fortress swooped down from the sky, turning tens of thousands of soldiers into powder.
A flying super-large shopping mall! But it’s full of arms!
"Huh..." Zhang Hao took a deep breath, and he suddenly realized that he still knew too little about this world. The Zhang family was worthy of being a "small family" before, and the information they knew was also too little.
Mu Pengcheng continued: "The most famous war weapon in our country of Qixia is the 'Spirit Turtle Castle'.
The Spirit Turtle Castle is said to be composed of more than two thousand magic weapon-level magic weapons, with a radius of more than five feet, and a solid barrier above it. It consumes tens of thousands of high-grade spiritual stones every hour.
There is a spell below the Spirit Turtle Castle to form four legs that are like pillars supporting the sky, which can move slowly.
The soldiers inside can fire crossbows, magic powers, etc. to annihilate the enemy.
As far as I know, we now have a total of 6 turtle castles."
Zhang Hao was excited just by listening to it. He couldn't help but ask: "Are there any small war weapons?"
"That's a lot. For example, some powerful crossbow beds on the battlefield can also be regarded as a war weapon."
"Thank you for the introduction, Brother Shi. Zhang Hao learned a lot and benefited a lot."
Mu Pengcheng was very proud: "It's a small matter. If my brother has any questions, just ask."
Zhang Hao thought for a moment and suddenly said: "This Weapon Refining Guild, on behalf of the Zhang family, I apply to join and jointly build the Weapon Refining Guild."
"Oh..." Mei Qianyun suddenly spoke, very surprised, "Master Zhang, we all have seen the Zhang family's ability to smelt black iron. But the Weapon Refining Guild tests the weapon refining skills. I don't know what the Zhang family has to offer.
What about the technology that needs to be acquired?”
Zhang Hao smiled: "How about this, let's disperse for now.
Three days later, we met again with our respective techniques, magic weapons, etc.
At that time, everyone will discuss it again and determine whether the Zhang family is qualified to join the Weapon Refining Guild."
Everyone thought about it and agreed one after another; and decided to meet at the Zhang family's residence in Fangshi three days later.
