Chapter 200 Fireball Cylinder and Test Accident
In the undead disaster last year, Sardar was almost buried by the sea of ​​skeletons. He felt that he lacked long-range AOE skills.

Wilson, on the other hand, summed up his combat experience in the Molten Field, and believed that the opponent's long-range attacks must be suppressed immediately, especially the powerful magic crossbow.

The ideas of the two of them also represent the needs of many adventurers and soldiers. In the past, this demand was expressed as "will there be a magician in our team?" Of course, most of the time it was just a delusion.Now, the invention of a small magic cannon should be able to meet this demand.

Li Qi and others made some discussions on this idea, and the idea quickly became clear.

There are two main tasks of this small magic gun. One is to suppress the opponent's long-range attack units, and the other is to block the intensive impact of the opponent's melee units. This is difficult for magic guns to do at this stage.

The task is clear, and the indicators in all aspects will come out.

The effective range of the small magic gun should not be lower than that of the magic gun, preferably more than a thousand meters.It can kill enemies within a radius of at least 20 meters, which is almost the killing range of a 60mm mortar in the earth world, and its lethality is not weaker than that caused by magic guns.

This gun should be very light and can be carried by two people at most.A first-level professional can be a gunner, with a minimum rate of fire of one shot per ten seconds, and the ability to continuously fire at least ten rounds.A team of two, taking turns with each other, plus supplies such as holy water and potions, the limit can reach [-] shots, which should be able to deal with a battle.

As for what spell to use, Youzan and Artur said in unison: "Fireball!"

No matter which magical world you are in, fireball is a signature skill for traveling at home, killing people and stealing goods.

Choosing Fireball is inevitable, after all, within the scope of "divine power development" permitted by the Mage Union, Fireball is the most powerful evocation spell.Moreover, the fireball technique has been developed very well, and the "technical cost" is also very low.

"Active-seeking fireball technique, split-bullet fireball technique, final trajectory-changing fireball technique..."

You Zan said: "In the last era, there were already too many variations of fireball."

Why do these concepts feel so familiar?
Artur said excitedly: "There are more now! Since I became a mentor... I mean Master Rowena's apprentice, in the past ten years, hundreds of new fireball techniques have been approved by the Masters Union patent."

Aren't you a magician, why are you so familiar with fireball?
Being stared at by Li Qi with strange eyes, Artur scratched his head in embarrassment: "I am busy with work, and my only interest is to ponder the evocation spell, thinking about learning the fireball technique, and then I will change my job to become a battle magician."

Li Qiyu said earnestly: "Workers, peasants, and soldiers study business. Workers are the most honorable profession."

Since the fireball technique has developed so maturely, there is no technical obstacle in transforming it into a magic cannon.

"In the first era, the fireball technique had the simplest spell model, which is the current standard fireball technique. Other variants either increase the spell level or expand the spell model, and the corresponding magic circle is much more complicated."

You Zan proposed to use the standard fireball technique, and Li Qi agreed, which is consistent with the idea of ​​inventing the magic gun.

However, a new problem has arisen. The standard fireball technique has a maximum range of only 300 meters. Even the improved extended-range fireball technique can only hit 500 meters. I haven’t seen any magician who can throw the fireball technique one kilometer away. .

The lowest level of the standard fireball technique is level one, but the level one fireball is about the size of a table tennis ball, and it is a trick used by Faye to scare people.

To ensure sufficient power, a third-level fireball technique the size of a human head must be used.If you add magic skills such as increasing range, not only the manufacturing cost of the magic circle will increase, but also the power consumed will be much higher.

You Zan said: "Then add something..."

Li Qi's eyes lit up, yes, add a "cannonball".

Just like the wind arrow array used by the magic crossbow, the standard wind arrow spell can barely reach a thousand meters, and the power of the wind element can only last for that time, but with the addition of crossbow arrows, it can shoot more than 2000 meters.Some high-level snipers, such as the hero-level eagle-eyed hunters, can use a special long-range magic crossbow to penetrate five kilometers away with one arrow.

The crossbow bolts enhanced with wind arrow technique can shoot farther than pure wind arrow technique, because the power of wind element has a carrier to rely on, which can last longer.

Li Qi remembered that in the second stage of the magic gun public election meeting, a workshop took out a magic gun with a fire arrow circle, indicating that this direction is no problem.You only need to replace the fire arrow circle with a fireball circle, and replace the small bullets with large shells.

Li Qi muttered: "Use black iron directly as the cannonball, and drill more holes in the projectile body, so that after the fireball is summoned, it can be integrated with the cannonball. During the flight, the fireball is enough to burn the cannonball red. Explode and shatter the cannonball into pieces. These red-hot shrapnel have the power of the fire element, so they must be very powerful!"

Artur quickly wrote these points down on his Piliboy 4000, and now this thing is not yet popular, Youzan just got some for Li Qi, himself, Artur, Tarrence and the witches to do the initial test.

Hearing Li Qi's muttering, You Zan's semi-circular head twitched again: "Why do you feel that this thing is a bit familiar?"

Li Qi was startled, then patted his head again.

Isn't this a bazooka! ?
………………

Three days later, in the lower area of ​​Epsilon, the old place where the magic gun was tested before.Li Qi carried a thick barrel on his shoulders. Sardar stuffed a cannonball that looked like a bullet that had been magnified several times and drilled countless holes into the barrel. open.

Both Youzan and Artur remembered the spell model of the fireball technique, imitating the principle of the magic gun, making a little improvement, and came up with the early demonstration model.

This thing looks like the front half of the 120mm heavy rocket launcher in the earth world was cut off.It is named as 120 Fire Ball Tube, referred to as 120 Fire...

Now that the earth world already has a mature framework, why bother to pretentiously follow Finn's characteristic path, just take it and use it.

The structure of the fireball cylinder is roughly the same as that of the magic gun, and the sensor device in the handle transmits divine power to activate the magic circle.But because the summoned fireballs had to fly together with the shells in the tube, they couldn't use mithril to engrave the magic circle, and used pure gold instead.

The base of the magic circle was replaced by molten lizard skin from copper. That's right, lizard skin that has extremely high fire resistance and can absorb magic power.It is wrapped with another layer of copper, and the outermost layer is black iron.The entire launch tube is seventy centimeters long and weighs close to ten kilograms.

Li Qi cast a spiritual thorn, and the divine power was transferred from the "sensing sticker" in the palm to the stimulating device, and then his shoulders suddenly became hot, and orange-red flames spewed out from the mouth of the tube.

Huh?
Why didn't the fireball fly out with the shells?What went wrong?
Li Qi was wondering, Youzan and Artur shouted at the same time.

"Run!"

"Throw it away!"

Li Qi reacted quickly, dropped the tube, turned around and ran away.

With a loud bang, the fireball exploded behind him, and the heat wave lifted him several meters high, turned him in the air at an unknown number of degrees, and hit the ground heavily.

People rushed up and gasped when they saw Li Qi lying on the ground.

Li Qi wore a full set of mithril armor, with a spider silk soft armor inside, but his back and legs were still bloody and bloody, as if he had been sieved by a magic gun.

Seeing that Li Qi didn't move, Sardar and Wilson went to help him, and Asuna, who was in charge of medical support, shouted: "Don't touch him!"

She first shot it with a healing spell, then cast a blessing spell, and finally cast mind thorns.

Li Qi's body trembled, and he cried out, "It hurts!"

In the infirmary of the small town, naked Li Qi lay on the bed, and said with some embarrassment: "Let's find a male priest to do it..."

"Where can a man do such fine work?"

Asuna, who was wearing a white coat, was very serious: "And I am a doctor, and you are a wounded patient. The doctor treats with the love of a parent, and the patient should be like a son or daughter. Put aside all scruples and accept it calmly. This is still you, Chief Cardinal. The guidelines that have been repeatedly told to our medical staff."

How did the focus of the words of the doctor's parents get to the patient?

Li Qi smiled wryly, and could only let Asuna do what she wanted.

There were more than a dozen wounds on his back and legs, and the flesh was rolled up. It looked horrible, but it was nothing serious, all of them were flesh wounds.

Asuna carefully took out the fragments from the wound with tweezers, and Artur was standing beside her, with guilt and fear on his face.

Li Qi comforted: "Artur, don't take it to heart, it's normal for weapon research to have some accidents, and this idea is still decided by me, and the responsibility is on me. I'm glad that I'm not someone else. Dahl, he probably only has half his life left."

Even he comforted himself: "We have actually made progress, at least it proves that this weapon is a great threat to the hero level."

He asked, "Have you found out the reason?"

Artur, the chief designer, wiped the corners of his eyes with emotion, nodded and said: "Confirmed, the summoned fireball does not have enough space, and it exploded before the shell was pushed out."

The damage of the fireball technique mainly comes from the explosion. It will explode when it encounters obstacles, and it will also explode when it flies to the farthest range.Another situation is that it is overcompressed.

Summoning a fireball in a semi-closed tube, and then letting it carry a cannonball, will not make it explode directly, but just a kind of compression.But there is also a limit to the compression range that the fireball can withstand. If there is not enough space, the chamber will explode directly.

According to Li Qi's train of thought, several holes were chiseled out of the cannonball, allowing the fireball to have a place to stay.Now it seems that there is still less space left.

Li Qi had a headache: "Drill more holes, or even make them hollow? But then the shells won't be very powerful. Isn't 120 fires not enough, so we have to make 150 or even 200 fires?"

"I have an idea……"

Artur stretched out his hand, and the PGA on his wrist projected a blueprint in the air, sketched on the road.

"We can design the cannonball as a two-part structure. The second half is hollow to accommodate the fireball technique as much as possible. The first half is not hollow, but there are also many holes to allow the fire element power of the fireball technique to have an exit in the front."

"Inserting the shell into the gun body from the front, the size of the front half of the shell does not have to be limited by the size of the barrel."

Looking at Artur's design, Li Qi was stunned. Isn't this a rocket-propelled grenade, commonly known as an RPG infantry killer?

Well, the way of the bazooka is temporarily unavailable, so try RPG.

After being recognized, Artur left in a hurry.

In the infirmary, Asuna finished taking the fragments, cleaned the wound, used healing and vitality to speed up the recovery, and then brought ointment.

This is Epsilon's self-produced wound medicine. It not only contains holy water, but also restores medicine extracted from the herbs grown by Beverlo. It will not leave scars after the wound is healed, and it has been mass-produced. planning.

"Uh, there's no need for this," Li Qi hurriedly waved his hand.

"This must be wiped. Next time you try it, you will definitely rush to put it on yourself. If you get injured again, the effect will not be very good." Asuna also blushed at this time: "I just put it here, who do you want Come help, I'll call her."

There is no need to directly touch the fragments for debridement, and it is different to apply ointment.

Li Qi thought to himself, why do you say this like "Whose brand are you going to turn over, Your Majesty"?

Finny and Ellie are studying in the classroom, and the other will come too. Together, they will definitely play with themselves as toys.

Diss and the others are also suitable, but whoever does this, the privacy of what his butt looks like will soon be shared with all Rose Witches through the spiritual network, which is a bit of a thing.

Karin would be fine, but she's on a mission at Beta Base.

Tina, um... It seems that only Tina is left, and she should have finished her daily inspection tasks.In the study schedule he arranged for the witches, there is no class for her today, and this meeting is idle.

Asuna looked a little surprised: "Tina...?"

"It seems that you have misunderstood the relationship between me and the saint," Li Qi said angrily.

Asuna smiled wickedly: "Chief Cardinal, what a misunderstanding, we all think that the saint and you are relatives."

After getting along for too long, Li Qi has no respect for them, which is a good thing, but Li Qi misses the old days very much.

At that time, Stan, Gambit, and Asuna were so well-behaved, and how they knew how to respect the old and the virtuous.

Not long after, Tina entered the door and saw Li Qi lying on the bed, she screamed, covered her face and turned around.

She condemned: "You, you have no shame!"

Li Qi said leisurely: "This is not an ear, why are you ashamed?"

Tina stomped her feet: "Don't tell me that I can't be exposed except for my ears, and I can be exposed anywhere else!"

"Help me apply the medicine. If you can't do it, call Fei Ni over." The communication between Li Qi and Tina has always been so direct.

Tina resented: "To them they are always smiling and coaxing, but to me... just treat me like a mercenary with a monthly salary of four gold bushels!"

Saying so, the body still leaned over very honestly.

"What is the relationship between us?" Li Qi said, "They are incomparable."

Just as Tina picked up the ointment, her hand tightened when she said this, and something suddenly appeared on her face.

She wiped and said in a panic: "You, how can you say such a thing? I already understand the knowledge of physical hygiene! I don't have that kind of relationship with you! You are trying to provoke the relationship between me and Finie Li You just like to hear us bickering!"

Li Qi rubbed his forehead, you really...what can people say?
He quickly clarified: "I am your ear masseur."

Tina froze, and the ointment sprayed out again.

She wiped the ointment on Li Qi's back, and said reluctantly, "Don't ask me to wipe it for you!"

Then he squinted his eyes and blushed, and looked at Li Qi's bloody buttocks, his face suddenly became pitiful, and he looked like he was about to cry.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Unless... a salary increase! To six gold bushels!"

Although a lot of gold bushes had been stored in the small treasury, it was still far from the goal.

Li Qi clicked his tongue: "It's up 50.00% in one go! You're so ruthless!"

Then said: "Five gold bushels, and the remaining one is paid by a blessing."

"make a deal!"

Fearing that Li Qi would regret it, Tina agreed immediately.

　I am going out urgently today, and the manuscripts are not enough, so I will update...
