Chapter 366 Barbarian Musicians
Chapter 366 Barbarian Musicians
When the many battles in Highcliff Castle ended and a rare period of peace arrived, Mir rushed into the design hut of the blacksmith shop.
After checking out the various weapons and ordnance that Colen and Gunda had put aside, he had ideas at a very fast speed, as if he was enlightened by God.
Today, the blacksmith shops are no longer scattered around the rushing river, but have been planned as the Gaoyabao arsenal.
The surrounding walls are high, and rows of blacksmith shops with thick smoke are located in the middle. This is the military restricted area of Gaoya Castle. No outsiders are allowed to enter. If anyone with bad intentions tries to get close, he will be immediately beaten up by the werewolf guards on duty at the door, and then handed over to Leighton for interrogation, and finally reported to the emperor.
Originally, Levi wanted to meet Ashe and his group, but at this moment, Mir had developed new standard equipment, so how could he hold back? He walked directly into the arsenal along the straight road paved with red bricks.
When he arrived, he had just caught up with the first magic crystal arrow being distributed to the hands of the griffin knights who were testing the shooting.
A group of knights crowded together, all wanting to witness the power of the new arrows first. When the lord arrived, like Moses parting the Red Sea, the crowd automatically made way for a straight path leading to the core.
"I'm not late, am I?"
"My lord, you've just sent down the arrows, and you haven't tried firing them yet." Sikai pointed at the five Fed archers in the front who were holding a white-feather arrow and looking around.
Levi took the arrow handed to him by Sikai and looked at it. He saw the difference as soon as he touched it.
The arrow shaft is just an ordinary straight white shaft, but the front end of the arrowhead is not a sharp blade, but a tiny, invisible firing pin.
"What is this for?"
Logically speaking, this design has abandoned sharpness. Although it can break through flesh, it will fail once it encounters armor.
"This is Mir's design." Sikai explained, "Your Excellency still have some remaining magic crystals from the Whisperwind Tribe. Mir originally wanted to use these magic crystals to repair Kemish's magic armor, but later found out that the original magic power contained in these magic crystals is so violent and concentrated that it cannot be used as ordinary magic power at all."
Levi knew that the armor was engraved with a defensive magic, but it couldn't even withstand his kick. The magic stone on the chest that provided energy was also kicked into pieces by him and thrown directly into the warehouse of High Cliff Castle to collect dust.
"Then by chance, Mir discovered that if these primordial magic powers were confined in a closed space and a certain degree of pressure was applied, these already extremely active primordial magic powers would be detonated." Sikai smiled slightly and let Mir speak the next words.
"So I hollowed out the center of the arrowhead, put the original magic inside, and used a needle to hit it and apply pressure to detonate the magic." Mir was a little embarrassed, and then became distressed: "But in this case, the arrowhead craftsmanship requirements are too high, and it is impossible to mass-produce it."
You know, just grinding those firing pins kept him awake for days and nights.
"Let's try it first." Levi didn't mind at all. Any initial version would naturally have various flaws.
To be honest, the common use of these magic crystals is to dilute them into ordinary magic power to make various magic potions for magicians to replenish their magic power or to use them as a source of energy for some magic equipment or magic arrays.
Mir was the first person to directly apply primordial magic to weapons.
In front of their lord, the griffin knights who had been careless took a deep breath and became serious.
The predecessors of these griffin knights were the Feder archers. They were inferior to the centaurs in archery. Each of them had eyes as sharp as an eagle. They drew their bows and arrows, staring at the wooden man in heavy armor nearly two hundred steps in front of them.
Following the order, they all released the magic crystal arrows in their hands.
Swish swish!
Then everyone seemed to see the face of the dead.
It wasn't that the five arrows missed the target. These arrows undoubtedly hit the head of the wooden man two hundred steps away. However, what shocked them was that when the arrows hit the helmet, a blue explosion occurred. The powerful magical turbulence directly blew these wooden men in armor into pieces.
"Oh my god!" Zat couldn't help but wipe the saliva from the corner of his mouth.
If this were to be ejaculated onto a person, even his own mother wouldn't be able to recognize him.
Levi looked at the magic crystal arrow in his hand, walked to the open space, pinched the arrowhead with two fingers, and with a "bang", he crushed the arrowhead in his hand. The huge azure magic turbulence surged over his body, and finally only lifted up some corners of his clothes.
"The power is okay, basically catching up with the attack of a mid-level Dou Qi Knight." Levi pondered the power, which reminded him of the dragon vein dog-headed man who controlled the fire element. The power of the two was not much different.
Everyone was completely unmoved by this scene, as they had already fully understood the inhuman physique of their lord. They even suspected that after a breath of dragon, their leader could still take a bath and sing in it.
High Cliff Castle does not have alchemists like the Holy Sith Kingdom, so it is unable to manufacture magic equipment. It is commendable that Mil has made the arrows possess the power of magic equipment through simple construction.
"However, I remember that the original magic will cause people who come into contact with it for a long time to suffer from magic disease?" Levi asked puzzledly.
Although the arrow is quite powerful, once equipped by the griffin knights, their combat effectiveness will be visibly increased. However, if the price is that these knights will suffer from magic disease, then the lord would rather throw it into the toilet and not use it.
"The sinking stones used by Chief Ashe and the others can prevent magical diseases. I added some sinking stones into the arrowheads and found that the effect was the same." Mir explained.
To put it simply, as long as there are enough sinking stones, there is no need to worry about problems like magic disease. The sinking stone just has the word "stone" in its name, but it is actually a unique magic metal. Its function is to isolate some magic power in a small range.
It may not be able to block powerful magic, but it is enough to block the weak invasion of primordial magic.
The product is good, the only drawback is that the production capacity may not be able to keep up.
The first is the issue of raw materials. The Whisperwind Tribe's magic crystal mine is mostly owned by Furlina. Now that these elves have become vassals of Highcliff Castle, they have given up part of their own magic crystal mine. Originally, it was more than enough for Heather and the others to use to replenish their magic power, but once it was used in military operations, the consumption would be unimaginable.
The most important issue is the process. It may seem like just a small firing pin, but in this world that has not yet been industrialized, it is difficult to achieve mass production.
But all things are difficult at the beginning, just take the first step.
"Magic arrows alone are not enough, the bows and arrows must also be improved. Miriel's magic bow can not only save the user's energy, but also attach wind magic to the arrows, making them more powerful and able to shoot farther." Levi looked around and expressed his opinion: "As long as our arrows can shoot faster, farther, and with greater power than others, then we will master the truth!"
Looking at Mil with a serious face, the lord smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry too much, take your time." Finally, Levi told Mil and the old blacksmiths some of his ideas and insights in detail, and finally finalized the new standard equipment of Gaoya Castle as magic equipment, and continued to work hard in this direction.
Even though magic equipment is time-consuming and laborious to produce, as long as it can be supplied to all members of a team of veterans, then this team will have the reputation of being "invincible with a full 100 soldiers".
The only drawback is that, in this way, there will be a huge gap between veterans and recruits not only in level but also in equipment, and their combat effectiveness cannot be generalized at all.
However, Levi had been taking the elite troops route from the very beginning, so he didn't care much about it. Moreover, as Gaoya Fort became bigger and bigger, it would be natural for the new recruits to have sophisticated equipment.
"Your Excellency." A clever bunnyman guard came bouncing over. This bunnyman, who had delivered the news of Kemish's attack on the wilderness to Highcliff Castle, now also served as a guard. "An elf named Ashe wants to see you."
"Let's go." Levi snapped his fingers: "Let's go see our dear Chief Ashe."
Now the elves have not really joined Highcliff Castle, so everything needs to be reviewed and reported.
When we arrived at the hall, Ashe Whisperwind was already sipping hot tea and chatting with Tina.
Every time the lord sees the elf chief, his heart can't help but be moved. It's not that he is a loser who can't walk when he sees a woman.
Instead, every move of this patriarch carries an intellectual beauty, and his face carries a maternal glow. These unique qualities create a sense of immorality that can only be admired from afar and not touched.
The key point is that the other party's age is also a mystery. It is said that a woman who is three years older than her husband is rich, but I don't know how many gold bricks this patriarch has.
"Good day, Lord Levi, is your trial going well?" Levi had just arrived this morning, so Ashe was not clear about the specific details of his trial.
"Good day, Chief Ashe, thanks to the goddess, everything goes well." Levi blinked and sat down on the main seat.
"Now that you have become a legendary warrior, it is foreseeable that Highcliff Castle will become more and more prosperous." Ashe clenched the cup with her slender fingers, feeling delighted.
A legendary human being can live for hundreds of years at least, and as long as Levi is there, Gaoya Castle will only become stronger and stronger. Her decision to bring the tribe to Gaoya Castle was completely the right one!
"I firmly believe it." Levi nodded in acknowledgement without being modest.
The two chatted casually, and afterwards Levi and Ashe formally accepted them as vassals in front of a group of Highcliff Castle leaders and elves, and the Whisperwind elves finally became members of Highcliff Castle.
Originally, the elves of the Whisperwind Tribe were arranged to live in guest rooms for outsiders in the commercial area. After being officially accepted, their base was planned to be in the northwest corner of the territory, which is close to the Running River. In addition, the little guy Little Buji likes to plant flowers and grass everywhere when he has nothing to do. Therefore, even if there is heavy snow in the wilderness, there are still flowers blooming here.
When the elves who love beauty learned that they would live here in the future, they were very satisfied and started the moving activities vigorously.
It has to be said that the elves are worthy of being regarded as the apple of the Titans' eye, the most elegant and beautiful race. They are like the Creator's own sons, concentrating all the beauty and handsomeness of all races in this one race.
Although they were all working together with sweat on their foreheads while moving things, the elves looked like nobles who had never done housework, while the vassal tribes who came to help looked like extremely unsophisticated bumpkins.
Levi had no intention of asking for help. Although these elves looked thin, they were actually stronger than ordinary humans. Otherwise, they would not have been able to become world-famous archers. As everyone knows, archers are often the strongest among all the soldiers in the legion.
In order to welcome the elves to join Highcliff Castle, the elders made a heroic act of turning from darkness to light, and allowed the old people to collectively meet the current Lord of the Wilderness.
Highcliff Castle held a grand welcome party, and the elves who had just joined Highcliff Castle actually began to sing in unison in the spacious square of the colony to show their appreciation.
The sound was ethereal and pure, just like the soft singing of larks.
Even the barbarians who lacked artistic talent were shocked. Only Zha Manzi curled his lips, and the sour taste in his mouth was enough to corrode steel: "It sounds nice, but it has to be changed to the music of our Gaoyabao."
Li Wei wanted to give it a big slap to stop saying things that would affect unity, but he calmly put down his hand and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, it's not as down-to-earth as the music of our Gaoyabao."
As soon as he finished speaking, the barbarians who didn't want to be looked down upon by the elves who had just joined Highcliff Castle took a big gulp of wine, stood up unwillingly, and howled at the top of their lungs.
"The river flows eastwards, and the stars in the sky align with the Big Dipper."
……
"When it's time to strike, strike. Go through the seven kingdoms in a hurry."
……
These big-bellied men all have loud voices, and their resonant voices combined seem to overturn the sky. Combined with this simple and easy-to-understand song, it creates an indescribable sense of heroism.
The elves were dumbfounded.
This song is obviously not epic or noble at all, but it sounds very rhythmic and makes people want to sing along.
This effect satisfied the lord's vanity to an unprecedented degree.
"Lord Levi, is this the song you composed?" Tiffany blinked her beautiful blue eyes like the sea and looked at Levi beside her.
Naturally, the mermaid princess would not be forgotten in this party, so in order to allow her to attend, the lord waved his hand and built a pond in the center of the square, and the main seat was next to the pond.
"Ahem, I came across this song by chance in a biography. Later I thought it was good, so I slightly modified it and used it." Levi told the truth.
Although he is very thick-skinned, he still cannot take other people's achievements for himself, even if the other person is no longer in this world.
