The Ominous Lord of the Skaven

Chapter 219 Enchanted Bullet and Underground Exploration Plan

The solution to the problem of basic ammunition is only one of them. In order to better fight against superhumans, the territory also needs to make achievements in new types of ammunition.

In the long-term use of weapons, the rat people found that some bullets can still retain the magical brilliance after being fired.

This anomaly is becoming more and more common in the military, especially when they shoot steel cone rounds.

A report was sent to Ickert's desk. Regarding this interesting report, he directly sent it to his research institute for research.

The results of the study were also officially released today.

Scholars named the phenomenon discovered by the Ratmen "Rune Erosion", a phenomenon of array effectiveness transfer under high magic pressure.

The reason for this phenomenon is mainly due to the large-scale application of the steel frying technology by Windsor.

Usually, steel frying workshops don't care whether the furnace that has smelted magic steel has been mixed with ordinary steel. The iron filings of magic steel in the workshop will also be smelted and recycled together, so the magic of many steel bullets has been enhanced. .

Steel itself is a good magical material, at least it is not resistant to magic, similar to lead, copper, silver, gold and the like.

Even the dimensional stone, this thing can not only be enchanted, but also self-sufficient in magic power.

This is a major discovery.

The rune erosion effect means that a piece of steel with a suitable magic material can be enchanted in the chamber with the blessing of special means!

This will make ordinary bullets, and even artillery shells, have more terrifying performance on the battlefield, thus achieving a large-scale confrontation with extraordinary cavalry.

This technology, Ickert realized, would be a game-changer.

"Take the order to the steel frying factory immediately. In the future, any raw materials for car-made bullets must be added with an appropriate amount of magic materials!"

"Yes! Clan Chief!"

The guard mouse decisively took the order and left.

Although important technologies to improve the basic power of firearms have been discovered, Windsor is still a long way from the large-scale application of these technologies.

The current supply of magic crystals and gems in the territory relies heavily on seizures and foreign trade. Not only is the production of firearms restricted, grenades, enchanted bullets, and military magic gems are all affected.

"Some ideas can't be dragged on."

Ickert realized that solving these raw materials would become a strategic problem for the territory.

"Aris! Where are the topographic maps explored by those adventurers?"

Ickert yelled at Aris, who quickly took out the mission blueprint from the drawer and handed it to Ickert for review.

"Well, they're doing pretty well."

After all, it was a professional team hired with a lot of money. The adventurers have basically figured out the structure of several caves, but due to limited ability, there are still some deeper areas that cannot be explored.

But this also pointed out the direction for Ickert, at least, the cave still has more room to go deep.

At the foot of this high mountain in the Cameroon Mountains, there is absolutely no shortage of pressure, so there is a high probability that many magic crystal mines and gemstone mines can be dug.

"It's time, I'm going to send someone to explore Cave No. [-] first."

Ickert pointed to a special cave and said that the reason why he chose this place is that only the No. [-] cave has a relatively flat terrain and is suitable for large-scale mining.

"The next step is to decide who should be sent to take charge of this exploration."

The territory has a lot of construction work to guide, and Ickert himself probably can't worry about it.

Fortunately, with the addition of the astrological mage, Ickert can mobilize the high-end combat power of the territory more easily.

"The first one is 'Lani the Mad Dog.'"

As a well-known theorist in the Astrology School, Lani has a new understanding of the Force after listening to Ickert's theory of pressure and the killing principles of various ammunition.

At the same time, as a fifth-order mage, Lani's combat power is sufficient to deal with most unexpected situations.

The No.2 field mage is Xi Luoerman. There is no reason for earth mages to go underground as cattle and horses.

Other personnel can be easily finalized, including 30 elite ratmen who will form a special expeditionary force to go deep into the cave.

Supporting this operation are also hunters and support troops, and the ratmen will also be mobilized from the Love Education Camp to support the logistics.

"That's all."

After formulating the basic battle plan, Ickert arranged for the troops to prepare.

The hunters and grenadiers, who had not moved for a long time, regrouped. Now, the total strength of the two troops has reached [-] rats, and a large number of sergeants have been trained.

Overstaffed officers can quickly expand their troops after the production of firearms increases, even if there are no new troops to serve them, they can also improve the quality of the troops.

Since this operation was a very special cave battle, all the rats were required to stuff their food packs with dry food, and each rat received 100 rounds of various ammunition at one time.

"Are the shotguns wrapped in paper this time? That's good, it's convenient to use."

"It's not just this! Look at this gleaming dimensional stone bullet! I can't believe that the clan chief is willing to issue this. You and I are not carrying guns."

The Ratmen lamented how good the equipment was for this attack, but soon, some keen sergeants realized something.

"There is a high probability that it will be a fierce battle, and the cave will be very dangerous."

A Ratman sergeant warned that since such a powerful ammunition was fired, it meant that the superiors thought they needed more powerful firepower.

There are a total of four guns supporting the team alone, and you must know that there are only 12 guns in the entire territory!
What's even more outrageous is that the strongest warrior rats in the territory were also ordered to remove a Sasamaria cannon from the gun mount, and five ratmen wearing strange iron weapons specially They carry ammo.

There is no doubt that they intend to demonstrate what is called a Skaven super mouse, a small artillery, directly as a recoilless gun.

And those five strangely dressed rats are the test rats of the latest exoskeleton device in the territory. These exoskeletons used for experimental verification are different, but they all have a common feature.

That is ugly.

To be honest, Ickert can't count on the equipment that is still in the experimental stage to be safe, but the hot-eyed configurations in front of him, like white shelves, still make him gasp.

Good guy.

The aesthetics of you mages is comparable to that of a certain big country before you got rich.

In order to ensure the success of the underground exploration, Ickert equipped them with enough equipment as much as possible. At least as far as the exploration of the adventurers shows, the underground is full of undead and various aggressive cave creatures.

Soon, the Ratmen were assigned the most important weapon this time.

Hammerhead.

All the extra tools of the blacksmiths were found. All kinds of blunt weapons made the Ratmen quickly realize what they were going to fight against.

Undead.

Many Ratmen think of the battle with the Tomb King and vampires. Zombies, skeletons and the like basically don’t take damage from sharp weapons. The most effective way to attack is to smash them to pieces, or use dimensional flames The injectors incinerated them thoroughly.

From this point of view, there should be no shortage of those rat-hating things down there.
