In the world of Lilliput, even for a powerful country like the Kingdom of Felan, making alchemical artillery is still an extremely difficult project.
Alchemists invented alchemy bombs long ago, and they were used to fight large monsters and mine precious minerals.
Scholars have also tinkered with various subsidiary products by studying related characteristics and relying on the accumulation of experience.
Alchemical artillery is one of the more famous ones.
But after so many years, alchemical artillery is still hard to find on the battlefield.
Not to mention alchemical artillery, even alchemical bombs rarely appear! The battlefield is still dominated by knights, a small number of wizards, and organized legions.
Why? Just because the cost is high and the price/performance ratio is too low!
Alchemists have been unable to reduce the cost and safety of the prepared alchemical bomb powder, which makes it difficult for nobles to make up their minds about its use.
However, the stability of this thing is poor. If it is used on the battlefield, killing ordinary soldiers will definitely result in a loss of blood. If it kills extraordinary people, there is often not such a good chance.
So... in actual operation, if you have gold coins to prepare alchemy bombs, it would be more beneficial to recruit a few more mercenary groups!
That is to say, when encountering incredibly huge monsters that ordinary extraordinary beings are unable to fight against, people will consider sacrificing these things that are useless except for their power.
And most of them just use alchemical bombs. For many kingdoms, the requirements for alchemical artillery are really too high!
The material strength requirements of the gun barrel are enough to eliminate weak countries like the Gangdu Kingdom.
In other words, the Kingdom of Feilan has a lot of money, so it can gather the strength of the whole country to find a sufficient amount of steel, and then mix it with a precious alchemical potion to strengthen it so that it can take on this important task.
Such alchemical artillery can be regarded as a valuable military weapon, but material limitations limit the number of such military weapons.
In actual combat, when tens of thousands of people are fighting on the battlefield, what can only one or two artillery pieces do?
Moreover, the alchemical artillery has extremely poor accuracy and is extremely cumbersome. Even in the country that invented it, there is no example of an extraordinary person being killed in actual combat.
What made it famous was that in a defensive battle, it effectively killed a super-large monster domesticated by the plateau giant clan, the Behemoth, which was over fifty meters in size.
Since this battle, the alchemy artillery and the dragon-breaking crossbow, which are specially designed to fight dragons, have been officially listed as the most effective weapons against super-large monsters by the human kingdom officials.
It is also the most expensive weapon!
Although the Kingdom of Feilan is a powerful country, they also know that the alchemical cannon that is twenty times as big as the minister mentioned cannot be realized at all.
Even if the country's blacksmith shops were emptied, they wouldn't be able to produce so much Baidu Steel, and the alchemists wouldn't be able to produce so many precious potions and alchemy bomb powders either!
Fortunately, the upper echelons of the Philan Kingdom did not expect the alchemical artillery to deal with the giant. The targets of these weapons were the two dog-shaped monsters beside the giant!
As for the giants... the Kingdom of Felan has other plans!
At this time, Xiao Yu was tinkering with tools in the craftsman's camp. The optimal level news from the Knight of Demen made Xiao Yu aware of various changes in the Kingdom of Feilan.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the king of this kingdom was not a simple one. Xiao Yu became more and more concerned about his equipment.
Not only the weapons, but also the armor, Xiao Yu also plans to upgrade it.
Anyway, I have been practicing more and more smoothly recently with the help of Bai Yuan Liquid, my physical strength is getting better and better, and my strength is getting stronger and stronger.
It is completely possible to carry out an upgrade based on the full-body explosion-proof suit!
For example, the domestically produced bulletproof plates I saw online recently can easily withstand automatic rifle fire.
When the time comes, I will first put on a bulletproof vest with a crotch protector, then tie on a few bulletproof plates, and then put on the explosion-proof suit.
Well, let’s take another bullet-proof blast shield.
Hehe, just ask those knights and those siege machines if they can still shoot through my front!
I just stand still and let them chop... I can probably exhaust them to death!
While Xiao Yu was thinking like this, a craftsman presented a long sword.
Seeing this sword, Xiao Yu focused his eyes on it and remembered: "I got it when I was cleaning the battlefield in the royal capital. It is said to be the sword of the knight who was trampled to death by me?"
"Um..." the ordinary Aenodia whispered: "Your Highness, that is not an ordinary knight, he is a brave man."
"Brave... I remember there is relevant content in my memory. Ancient bloodline. After being stimulated, can you have the strength of a second-level extraordinary knight?"
Xiao Yu said: "If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have remembered that I had ever encountered an opponent of this level!"
"It's also a second-level transcendent, but the fire phoenix impressed me more deeply."
"Ahem." What can Aenodia say? It's so miserable for this brave man to meet a great being like a giant who doesn't follow common sense?
Judging from the sword and the body of the brave man after the battle, this unlucky guy must have just met His Highness' big feet.
Then the sword and hand should have been inserted in...but he made a big mistake!
With his height, he cannot penetrate the soles of giants' shoes!
"Your Highness, this brave man once used this long sword to pierce His Highness's boots."
"Huh?" Xiao Yu was slightly startled, completely unaware that his defense had been broken!
Um...or it can't be called defense breaking?
After all, haven’t the soles of the shoes been pierced yet?
However, this also reminded Xiao Yu that it seemed that he needed to find two high fiber density insoles to cushion them.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be dangerous next time I meet a brave man with a spear?
Be sure to write it down!
Xiao Yu took out a small notebook and took notes, then looked at the long sword: "Is there anything special about this weapon?"
"Of course there is, otherwise I wouldn't dare to present it to His Highness."
Xiao Yu saw Aenodia walking over, took hold of the sword and swung it fiercely.
clang!
The long sword collided with the high-quality steel alloy pipe Xiao Yu brought.
After the spark, Xiao Yu noticed that the steel pipe had an obvious scratch!
And the brave man's long sword was actually unscathed!
"The iron-making technology of Lilliput is obviously so poor, but the magic weapons are so powerful!"
Xiao Yu said: "Are there many such weapons?"
Aenodia replied: "Your Highness, how can there be more!"
"This warrior sword is actually no longer a weapon." Aenodia said: "It is actually more appropriate to call it a special magical object."
"It is sharp and strong, and has its own consciousness. It will only activate true abilities for those with the blood of the brave."
"Real ability?" Xiao Yu whispered: "I'm quite curious, but unfortunately I can't use it. No matter how good this sword is, it's too small!"
Aenodia smiled and said: "Yes, it is too small."
"But, Your Highness!"
Chapter completed!
