Chapter 422: Dozens of times more powerful!
Heavy crossbow arrow against the giant beast!
The penetrating power is extremely strong. If it can penetrate the body of the giant beast, the arrow of the crossbow will explode directly, causing direct damage to the body of the giant beast!
This thing is simply a low-level armor-piercing bullet!
"This blue-level delayed explosion heavy crossbow arrow requires relatively expensive materials. Each one requires a piece of blue-level iron and a piece of blue-level saltpeter." Ma Hongwei introduced, "I asked Li Wenxi for the materials. ”
Blue iron nuggets and blue saltpeter...
Speaking of blue-grade saltpeter, Xu Xin thought that she still had one in her hand.
At first, he used blue saltpeter as air conditioning.
I don’t know how much blue-grade saltpeter Li Wenxi has in his hands now.
"Can we only make blue-level ones?" Xu Xin thought for a while, "Can't we make green-level ones?"
Green level may be mass produced.
"Green-level crossbows can also be made, but the penetration and explosion of the crossbow arrows themselves are too weak, and they should not cause any substantial damage to the giant beast." Ma Hongwei explained.
"But it would be too wasteful to attack ordinary mutated creatures. These heavy crossbow arrows are consumables and cannot be recycled after explosion. It is better to use explosive crossbow arrows or ordinary heavy crossbow arrows. Ordinary heavy crossbow arrows can also be recycled. ”
Xu Xin nodded.
He hadn't thought much about this.
"So, this blue-level delayed explosion heavy crossbow arrow is also a consumable?"
"That's right." Ma Hongwei nodded, "Every time a shot is fired, a blue-level iron block and a blue-level saltpeter will be consumed."
Consumables?
Without Li Wenxi, this kind of thing would be unthinkable.
After all, other areas are still at a level of resources that even blue-level armor can show off.
One shot consumes one blue-level iron nugget, which is too exaggerated for them.
But for District 188, these resources are not a problem.
After all, there is a little rich woman who can prospect, and she also has an entire mining team.
Although mass production is unlikely, it is not a big problem to make a dozen rounds and use them as weapons inventory.
With this kind of weapon, when they face giant beasts like giant anacondas in the future, at least they will not be able to capture them without help, but will have some means of counterattack.
"This heavy crossbow arrow can't be fired with an ordinary treehouse heavy crossbow, right?" Xu Xin asked.
Compared with the heavy crossbow arrows he made before, this kind of heavy crossbow arrows are much longer and a full circle thicker. They cannot be loaded into ordinary heavy crossbows at all.
"Yes. It can only be loaded into the metal blue-level super-heavy crossbow. Green-level or wooden super-heavy crossbows will not work. Because the weight of this crossbow arrow is very heavy, and firing its heavy crossbow requires a strong firing force. , It must be a blue-level metal super-heavy crossbow." Ma Hongwei said, taking Xu Xin to the window.
Xu Xin looked outside and saw an overweight crossbow placed on the outer wall of the tree house.
The treehouse super-heavy crossbow is a type of heavy crossbow that Ma Hongwei developed before. Because only wooden heavy crossbows could be made at that time, even Xu Xin's treehouse is not equipped with this kind of heavy crossbow.
With a "click", Ma Hongwei loaded this unique heavy crossbow arrow into the super-heavy crossbow.
Each super-heavy crossbow can only be loaded with one heavy crossbow bolt at a time.
"Brother Xin, I haven't tried the power of the blue-level heavy crossbow arrow yet. Why don't you try it out." Ma Hongwei patted the control panel beside him and said.
One shot is a piece of blue-level iron and a portion of blue-level saltpeter.
This experiment is not cheap.
However, the power of weapons must be understood.
"Okay." Xu Xin walked to the control panel.
Ma Hongwei's tree house is equipped with nearly thirty heavy crossbows, which is really an exaggeration.
There were so many spots of light on the tree house that he didn't even know which super-heavy crossbow he had just loaded with heavy crossbow bolts.
It was Ma Hongwei who helped him choose it.
Xu Xin looked around.
Apart from bare trees, there wasn't much else around.
So, he directly clicked on the ground not far away.
"Click!"
In an instant, there was an amplified sound from outside the tree house wall, and then the heavy crossbow bolts shot away quickly!
In the eyes of Xu Xin and Ma Hongwei, the two-meter heavy crossbow arrow was inserted diagonally into the soil like tofu!
Only one Yao was left.
What a powerful penetrating power!
"Boom!"
Before Xu Xin could finish sighing in her heart, the crossbow arrows exploded under the ground!
A billowing cloud of smoke rose from the place!
At the same time, mud and rocks were flying!
Several surrounding trees were affected by the explosion, and the nearest one was even lifted out of the ground!
Thick smoke rose upwards, and at the same time, a large, dark crater was left on the ground.
This pit is really quite big, nearly two meters in diameter and even more than two meters deep.
Moreover, cracks appeared on the surrounding ground, extending several meters away!
A single heavy crossbow bolt could actually blast such a huge crater!
Xu Xin looked at the scene in front of him, and even felt like blasting a mine.
Burying a bomb underground and then detonating it, blasting the ground directly, isn't it just like blasting a mine!
Unexpectedly, the explosive effect of this heavy crossbow arrow was so powerful!
I don’t know how many times more powerful than the explosive crossbow arrow!
"...How much explosives did you use?" Xu Xin looked at the big hole on the ground and turned to look at Ma Hongwei.
"Haha, I knew it must be very powerful." Seeing that his weapon was so successful, Ma Hongwei immediately became excited, "I used a lot, Brother Xin, in addition to one part of blue grade saltpeter, I also added nine parts Green grade saltpeter, and ten kilograms of vine juice!”
Good guy, this is too much!
No wonder it's so powerful.
Even without blue-level saltpeter, this is ten times the amount of ordinary explosive crossbow bolts!
Plus blue saltpeter...
This power is dozens of times greater!
The explosive contained in a heavy crossbow bolt is equivalent to a large explosive bag!
No wonder it blasted a big hole into the ground.
If this penetrates into the body of the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake...
Maybe, it might actually cause serious internal injuries to it!
If it hits the weak point directly...
Of course, under normal circumstances, unless it was a real crisis, it would be better for them not to take action against the giant anaconda that was hundreds of meters long.
After all, its weaknesses are not necessarily the same as those of ordinary anacondas.
Moreover, Ma Hongwei and Lou Fei'er have the ability to recover from injuries, but Giant Anaconda may not have the same ability.
The probability of killing it with one hit was too low, and the probability of angering it and causing it to go berserk was too high.
Facing the giant anaconda, heavy crossbow arrows can only be used as a defensive method.
However, if he encounters other giant beasts that come to attack the tree house, such as the blood-striped troll he saw in the hilly resource area before, the effect of this heavy crossbow arrow will be perfectly demonstrated!
The magnitude of the blood-striped troll should be much lower than that of the evolved giant anaconda.
In short, Xu Xin will not be afraid of its attack.
"Not bad!" Xu Xin patted Ma Hongwei on the shoulder, "After two days when the materials are sufficient, we will equip all members with your heavy crossbows, and then each person will make a dozen rounds as backup."
"Okay Brother Xin, that's all." Ma Hongwei was very happy that his research results were confirmed, and then said a little embarrassedly, "Indeed, the disadvantage of these weapons is that they consume too much material."
< br>
He had been thinking about increasing the power and destroying the giant anaconda that left a shadow on him, but he didn't think much about the cost of materials.
"The great power can cover up all other shortcomings. We will have the materials." Xu Xin looked at the huge crater that was blasted outside and said with a smile.
The cost is indeed a big problem, and only the explorers can afford the production of this heavy crossbow.
Even they can only take a breather for the time being.
Now, the high-end heavy crossbows that Ma Hongwei can make are all made of metal, and the crossbow arrows also require metal and blue-grade saltpeter.
But today's explorers happen to be short of iron.
Purple-level steel armor was provided to all members, and blue-level iron axes were provided to everyone who defected. These things consume too much blue-level and above iron blocks.
There are not enough materials above blue level.
Although it is possible to make some green-level metal heavy crossbows, the improvement is limited, so it is better to wait for the metal to be enough and get it right in one step.
Anyway, the current treehouse repeating crossbow with explosive crossbow bolts is enough.
At this time, Xu Xin's watch rang twice in a row.
It was a message from Lou Feier and Zeng Tao.
Lou Fei'er: "Did you make that explosion just now?"
Zeng Tao: "What's going on?! Is it in danger?!"
Qin Fu did not send any message.
His treehouse is not far from Ma Hongwei's treehouse, and his ability happens to be able to sense this side.
Xu Xin replied to Lou Feier: "Don't worry, I did it."
Then he replied to Zeng Tao: "I am trying out the new heavy crossbow, and you will also have one in the future."
Zeng Tao replied instantly: "Trying out the new heavy crossbow? It doesn't matter, as long as we are not enemies. By the way, where are my weapons? Should I make them for me?"
She had been thinking about her purple-grade steel giant blade. If she hadn't been so weak now, she might have come out to pester Xu Xin.
Xu Xin said goodbye to Ma Hongwei and came down from the tree house while replying to Zeng Tao.
"There are not enough materials at the moment. It may take a few days."
Looking at it now, the heavy crossbow should be the higher priority choice. Zeng Tao's giant blade should be moved back a little first.
"You...you promised me! You won't go back on your word!" Zeng Tao's words revealed extreme worry.
Now she is completely under control. If the other party doesn't let her do it...
There was nothing she could do.
Woohoo, it’s so difficult...
"This way." Xu Xin opened his watch on the spot and traded the purple-grade steel sword in his backpack. "Recently, iron and steel blocks are needed to equip everyone with heavy crossbows. In the past two days, you should use them first. Hold this knife.”
The other party accepted the deal almost instantly, fearing that Xu Xin would withdraw.
"Well, okay, this knife is not bad, I'll use this one first!" Zeng Tao was easily satisfied, and didn't say anything after that. He probably went to admire the purple-grade steel sword.
Xu Xin did not return to her tree house, but walked to the tree house that Qin Fu had just planted.
Most of the soil on the ground around the tree house has been changed to blue level by him, and there are still seedlings growing vigorously on it.
I just came here and the weak period has not passed yet, so I can’t wait to plant it.
"Hey, boss, are you here?" Qin Fu already knew that Xu Xin was heading this way, but when he came over, he stuck his head out to say hello, "What was that just now? The explosion was so powerful."
With that said, he directly controlled the roots and pulled Xu Xin into the tree house.
The tree house has been tidied up by him and is almost the same as before.
Xu Xin explained briefly and took out two bottles of medicine from his backpack.
Potion of strength.
"This is...?" Qin Fu took it and raised his eyebrows when he saw the introduction, "Strength potion? Is this your ability?"
He actually prepared psychoactive potions for them.
However, the improvement of Qin Fu with the psychotropic potion was relatively small, so Xu Xin planned to give the psychotropic potion to Zeng Tao and Lou Fei'er to make up for their shortcomings.
As for Qin Fu, let’s improve his strength first.
Drawing a bow also requires strength.
He himself also needs fighting power.
When the materials are sufficient in the future, we can give him a large amount of spiritual power and improve his own abilities.
After briefly explaining it to him, Qin Fu understood and immediately drank a bottle.
"How?" Xu Xin asked.
Qin Fu clenched his fist, took out his big bow and an arrow, and shot one into the distance. He was a little surprised: "My strength has improved a lot. I can shoot farther."
As he spoke, he glanced at the second bottle of potion on the table and picked it up.
Seeing that Xu Xin had no intention of stopping him, he drank it down again. (End of chapter)
