After making enough iron pieces, the next step is to prepare to connect them with strong ropes, which is completely manual work.
When it comes to tying ropes, the first thing that comes to mind is the tendons that were stripped from the sandworms a few days ago. These tendons have very strong toughness, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and the length is also very good.
The thickness is just right, it's a perfect choice.
Without saying a word, while Ravens was still thinking about it with the iron piece, Art went to tear open Ravens' package without permission, rummaged for a while, and took out the ball of sandworm thread.
"..." Ravens watched blankly as Art took the ball of thread out of his bag, spread it flat on the ground, then stared at the two pieces at the end of the thread, and then fell into deep thought.
"Ravens." After a long period of silence, Art called out to Ravens without warning.
"Ah, ah?" Ravens hasn't reacted yet. After all, everything Art showed this afternoon was beyond his expectation, whether it was the green iron pieces piled up into hills or the clusters of sandworms.
line, and now that his name was called, Ravens suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"These lines are not long enough, what can you do?" Art tilted his head and smiled, seemingly very innocent, but it made Ravens's skin crawl.
You clearly said no, what else can I do if the line is not long enough, how could I turn it into a ball out of thin air for you? If you want me to go hunting, just say it, why beat around the bush... Ravens complained helplessly in his heart.
.But fortunately, I rested long enough in the afternoon, and the side effects of the potion and the explosion have been largely eliminated, so hunting is no longer a problem.
"Okay, I'm going to think of something right now." Ravens didn't hesitate, picked up the silver sword leaning on the bedside table, and prepared to go wandering around the desert nearby to see if he could meet some people.
A lone sandworm.
After all, this is what I need to make armor for myself. Helping him is also helping me, and by the way, it prevents hand injuries. After comforting himself a few words, Ravens canceled tonight's plan and went there
desert.
Seeing that Ravens had gone away, Art was not idle. Anyway, it didn't mean that he couldn't start work without enough materials. After imagining the knitting plan in his mind, he started the work at hand.
In Chinese civilization, most of the ancient armors were made of metal sheets stacked at an angle. This form is quite resistant to bows, arrows and thrusts. Although strings need to be used to connect various parts, as long as one string is cut,
If it breaks, the entire armor will disintegrate instantly. But later, the craftsmen used an ingenious structure to cover the ropes connecting the iron pieces under the iron pieces, solving this biggest problem.
After that, the only disadvantages of this kind of armor are its high weight, high material cost, and difficulty in standing up when facing from the bottom up. Especially the high material cost, which makes those cannon fodder soldiers very difficult.
It’s hard to enjoy such treatment,
The most important thing is that it is ugly, but later, in order to improve the appearance, save costs and improve technology, those small pieces of metal were integrated into a large piece, and then connected together with ropes using the same means, which is both beautiful and economical.
The cost is reduced, although the defense is reduced a bit, but it doesn't do any harm.
However, the technical skills are indeed insufficient now. This small anvil and hammer cannot produce a large finished product. However, the resources on hand are quite abundant. The melted metal of dozens of sand scorpion carapace is completely enough to make such a luxurious product.
The armor is very heavy, but Ravens probably won't mind this. The starry green color is quite beautiful, and it can barely save a little appearance score... right?
Art looked at the emerald green armor with a small part woven into it, and felt that something was wrong...
As a small piece, this metal plate is as beautiful as a gem, but why does it look so strange when integrated into one piece? It's like that, it looks very abrupt, and everyone will definitely stare at it when walking on the street. It's definitely not the case.
I feel appreciated, but rather confused.
Maybe you can change the shape of each piece of iron, and it should look more gorgeous and majestic after being formed. But in this case, you need to carve each metal plate carefully, which will not only have to be remade, but also waste a lot of money.
The time is not worth it at all.
Just let Ravens put a coat on top of this armor. The weather is getting a bit cold anyway, so he can still keep warm.
With a solution to this problem, Art will face the second problem.
This armor needs to absorb magic power, and where should the magic stone be placed? It is impossible to open it on the chest, it is too obvious, and it is simply telling others that this is my weakness. Opening it on the inside is a good way, it can be effective
It avoids being targeted, but it becomes quite troublesome to replace the magic stones, and you have to take off the armor to replenish it.
After careful consideration, Art finally decided to put the magic stone under the armor cover on his arm. Just like the craftsmen used to hide the thin wires, to replace the magic stone, you only need to lift that part of the metal sheet. It is very
It’s convenient and you can do it by yourself.
After having a specific plan, Art no longer hesitated and quickly connected the pieces one by one. Then he moved away from the magic stone and used a hot file to make a big depression under the covering of his arm.
Cover it with a lid. Because most magic stones are
Irregular-shaped stones, so this storage warehouse-type structure can be used to store magic stones. It can not refuse all comers, and any strange-shaped magic stone can be packed in, no matter how big it is. Then there is the capacity and change.
Large, one reload can last longer.
About two hours later, the breastplate part was finally completed. It was an emerald green armor that shone with stars under the firelight. It had a compact structure. Although it was connected with ropes, due to the ingenious structure, except for the collar part,
, are all hidden under the metal sheets.
There are still a lot of metal pieces left, which is enough to make armor for the hands and feet, but the sandworm thread has almost been used up, and we have to wait until Ravens comes back.
As for other parts, Art will not use a full-coverage breastplate, but will be divided into multiple parts to specifically protect the parts that are vulnerable to attack. For example, for the legs, the knees and thighs need to be protected, while the calves are
The front part, ankles, and arms are similar, but an extra hand guard is needed. As for the hand guard, it is not good to use this diagonal stacking method of making armor. It is not flexible enough, so I will have to think about it carefully.
Well, all we have to do next is wait for Ravens to come back~ Thinking of this, Art stretched out and lay on the bed to rest.
