Ride and Cut

When 　　 the short man-made arrow tower, he must have never considered that there would be humans visiting. The ascending corridor was so low and cramped that he could almost only squat up and move up. After a while, Lord Lord finally got out of the corridor with a disgusting face, and the space was slightly more spacious.

　　 "I should have climbed directly from the outer wall." He patted his hair, and the dust suddenly rose, and he couldn't help sneezing twice.

　　 Robbie's voice came from the front: "This is our bed crossbow."

　　 Richard originally took out his handkerchief and was about to blow his nose. He glanced up subconsciously, and his eyes were immediately stuck to what was in front of him.

　　 Even if he knew that the dwarves were a family of famous blacksmiths, even if the two generations were barely enough, he still had to admit that this crossbow was far beyond his original imagination.

　　All-steel parts, compact structure, four supporting nails are tapped into the cracks of the floor logs for stability.

　　The bearing set is embedded with a cylinder to connect the crossbow body and the base. The steel crossbow is divided into three sections, in a reverse bow shape, and is connected by an energy storage mechanism composed of springs and gears. Since coming to this world, he has seen this slightly counterintuitive design for the first time.

　　 Every part has been carefully polished to give a slippery surface, and in the early morning sun shines, it emits a layer of blue reflection. Compared with the rough wood and stone walls around it, it seems to be from another dimension.

　　 "Did you?" Lord Lord gently stroked the stretched crossbow string, his expression seemed to see an intercontinental missile rising in the sky monkey workshop.

　　 "I am only responsible for the design, and the forging is done by someone else." Robbie picked up the towel and wiped the spilled grease on the crossbow machine, and the corners of his mouth were slightly pressed unconsciously, as focused and soft as a mother taking care of a child.

　　 "Awesome!" Richard said heartily.

　　 Originally Annie mentioned that Robbie likes to toss some weird things. At that time Richard Xunsi was full of whimsical ideas on her own. In the field of tossing, who would he think is second and dare to be the first? He didn't take it seriously, and even prepared to show him a chance.

　　 Now it seems that he underestimated the heroes of the world and also underestimated Robbie. This crossbow is far beyond the scope of gadgets, and the meticulousness and details contained in it can't be constructed by whimsical thoughts. It must be a work that was born after countless studies and attempts.

　　 Robbie is not the little kid he thinks like to be tricky, but a real expert in structural science.

　　 "There are several bronze stereotypes left by ancient sages in the tribe. In fact, I only picked up a little bit of the remnants of the wisdom of the predecessors, which is nothing at all."

　　 Talking about what he is good at, Robbie is full of pride and self-confidence, and the smile on his face is very contagious. Compared with the stubborn little Yakusan on the battlefield, it seemed like two people.

　　 Lord Lord is a complete pragmatist. He doesn't care about ancient sages, he only cares about what is available in front of him.

　　 "How far is the firing range? How about the quasi-head?"

　　 "A skilled shooter can hit the sheep's head steadily from four to five hundred yards away, and can shoot through a layer of plate armor up to a thousand or two hundred yards away, but it may be too far away." Robbie smiled shyly and added.

　　 "Actually, I feel that the arrow path can be kept stable even from a distance of seven or eight hundred yards, but it is difficult to aim with the eyes alone."

　　 "Fuck me." Richard couldn't help but explode.

　　 Don’t ask if you don’t know if you ask, this self-made bed crossbow is at least a whole better than Pompeii’s mainstream military bed crossbow in terms of accuracy and range.

　　 Pompeii ordnance technology can only be regarded as second-rate in the entire human world. San Jose in the south is stronger, but it does not reach this level.

　　 Of course, part of the reason is that the mainstream crossbows have compromised costs and cannot represent the highest level of each country. But Robbie and the dwarf's skills are definitely enough to shock people's jaw.

　　 "This kind of big killer, how can you make it misfire. Listen to my brother, hurry up and get a batch of crossbow arrows. If there is no wood, use all steel."

　　Lord Lord is happier than Robbie, he pulled out the binoculars pinned to his waist and stuffed it into his hand, "And there is this one, you can see farther."

　　 Robbie had noticed that President Richard was looking around with this lens tube, and guessed that there must be a doorway inside. Give it a try in front of my eyes, and I was immediately attracted by this novelty.

　　 "The cross fire of the two bed crossbows is aimed at one place, and the killing is accurate. I see who can withstand it." Richard's face was red, as if he had seen the scenes of robbers turning on their backs.

　　 "Brother Richard." Robbie reluctantly put down the lens barrel, frowning and scratching his head, "Actually...the problem is not the arrow. Look at the string above."

　　 "String?" Richard lowered his head, and this look immediately revealed the clues.

　　The light yellow tendon string stretched on the crossbow arm is made of several fine tendon strings. It has been stretched to be obviously uneven in color, and it is about to die.

　　 "The tension of the all-steel crossbow is too great. I originally planned to use the giant Monaka leeches to make the strings, and I entrusted Miss Anne to help buy them." Robbie spread out, "but I haven't bought it yet."

　　 The Monaka giant leech he said is a kind of beast. The real peculiarity of this kind of leech is that its body is extremely flexible and solid. UU看书www.uukanshu.com has the most excellent and durable bowstring after processing. The powerful ballistas on the head of Cologne are all used in this. Material.

　　 "That's strictly controlled military supplies, how could it be so easy to buy." Richard shook his head, feeling that Robbie's thoughts were too naive.

　　Don't talk about a firm, even if he is such a serious pioneering lord, he is unlikely to compete with the regular army for the ownership of this kind of scarce material.

"Indeed." Robbie showed some embarrassment on his face. "So we can only temporarily replace it with ordinary sheep's tendon strings, but this must be replaced every four or five shots. Our problem is not that there are no arrows, but that there are no strings. "

"I…"

　　 Richard has seen black goats domesticated by dwarves, which are much stronger than ordinary goats, and the best of them can even be used as beasts. But no matter how strong it is, it does not exceed the scope of goats. It is a dream to extract the large tendons that can be used by the bed crossbow from them.

　　 And what is the use of a bed crossbow without strings? Perhaps posing to scare people is the only answer.

　　 The dwarf knew that it would be useless to keep preparing arrows, so he didn't make any extras at all. This idea is not wrong.

　　 "Are there any gold coins in your tribe?" Richard suddenly asked a question that seemed irrelevant.

　　 "Gold coins?" Robbie reacted after a shock, "Our tribe is not very rich. We usually sell weapons in exchange for supplies. I think there are probably more than 10,000 gold coins in total."

　　 Poor ghost Richard Hao Xuan did not spout a mouthful of old blood, this amount made him immediately in awe, never expected this group of short Atsuko to have such a solid family.

　　 "Give me a thousand, you just have to prepare the crossbow and I will take care of the rest." Richard reached out to pat Robbie's shoulder, but he didn't have enough, so he patted him on the head.
