Chapter 470 Set up the giant cannon! (5100 words long chapter!)
Xu Xin took the backpack and wanted to take out the heavy crossbow from the backpack.
"No, Brother Xin!" Ma Hongwei immediately stopped his movements, "It's very big and it's hard to take it out. You might as well assemble it directly on your tree house."
Is it big...
"Isn't your tree house equipped with this?" Xu Xin put down her backpack and asked, "Show me the effect."
When he first arrived, he saw a circle of new heavy crossbows surrounding Ma Hongwei's tree house.
Those heavy crossbows are very conspicuous. Even if they are hidden in the canopy of the tree house, they still reflect a frightening metallic luster in the sunlight. Several of them are emitting purple light and are of purple grade.
Moreover, many extremely powerful heavy crossbows were placed on the tree houses of the few people around him.
He also saw several people’s tree houses equipped with the one mentioned before
Their tree houses can already be regarded as a very strong line of defense.
As long as there is enough ammunition, any previous beast tide will be a piece of cake for Ma Hongwei's team
However, what he didn't see just now was that the heavy crossbow was very huge.
"No assembly." Ma Hongwei shook his head, "So far, I have only made this one heavy crossbow of this level. The main reason is that it consumes too much material."
Then he touched his head in embarrassment: "When I asked Li Wenxi for the materials, she didn't give them to me. She said that there were too many supplies and she wouldn't do it now. I told her that they were for you, and she gave them to me. Materials for my rack.”
"...Is that a lot? How many are there?"
"Oh, it just requires ten parts of purple-grade steel, ten parts of purple-grade wood, and ten parts of purple-grade animal sinew..."
"Okay, okay, I understand."
Xu Xin's scalp went numb when he heard it was true.
This consumable consumes more materials than the knife Zeng Tao wanted!
Let Ma Hongwei and Li Wenxi discuss this matter. Even if he knew about it, he wouldn't be able to do anything.
After all, the resources are in Li Wenxi's hands, and the technology is in Ma Hongwei's hands.
He is responsible for using it.
"Moreover, these are just consumables for the heavy crossbow." Ma Hongwei became excited when he talked about this heavy crossbow. He looked very excited. "The special heavy crossbow arrows required for this heavy crossbow will consume five purple-level arrows per shot." Metal materials, and five parts of purple-grade saltpeter! This thing is a super-enhanced version of the previous super-heavy crossbow arrow!”
As he spoke, he took out a huge heavy crossbow arrow that was more than three meters long and as thick as an arm from the backpack he had just handed to Xu Xin.
Then he slowly placed it on the ground.
It can be seen from his movements how heavy this heavy crossbow arrow is!
You know, Ma Hongwei is a mutant with enhanced strength!
"Huh?" Coco ran to the side of the heavy crossbow and stretched out her little paw to push.
"Don't touch it."
Xu Xin squatted down, picked up the back of Coco's neck and opened it, then reached out and touched the purple-level heavy crossbow arrow.
[Super delayed explosive metal heavy crossbow arrow (purple): The heavy crossbow arrow has extremely powerful penetrating power. With its own weight, it can easily pierce the purple-level scales of the behemoth. The head of the crossbow arrow contains a lot of powerful The explosive will explode one second after the crossbow arrow is inserted into the local unit, causing tons of explosion damage!
Because of its special structure and heavy weight, a special heavy crossbow is required to launch it. 】
Good guy!
This introduction is indeed much stronger than the previous [Delayed Explosion Metal Heavy Crossbow Arrow (Blue)]!
But it is true that after all, the previous heavy crossbow arrow only consumed one part of blue-grade steel and one part of blue-grade saltpeter, but this one was super doubled, five parts of purple-grade steel, and five parts of purple-grade saltpeter!
The power of blue-level explosions is already dozens of times that of ordinary explosive crossbow bolts. So these super crossbow bolts made of five times purple-level materials...
"Did you...exercise a little too much force?" Xu Xin looked up at Ma Hongwei with a strange look on his face.
This power... has really been upgraded to a level that breaks through the sky.
He was a little afraid to touch the Genzhong crossbow arrow now, for fear that if it exploded, it would blow up the two of them and the entire tree house.
"Um..." Ma Hongwei touched his nose in embarrassment and said with a smile, "It's true. Actually, I made the heavy crossbow arrow first, but when I made it, I found that the previous heavy crossbow didn't have any at all. There is no way to use this heavy crossbow arrow. I have no choice but to make a heavy crossbow that consumes more materials..."
Well, I made dumplings just for vinegar.
But this power is really huge when you think about it.
However, a heavy crossbow bolt consumes ten purple-level materials...
What kind of super consumable weapon is this!
His halberd only used two purple-level materials!
Ma Hongwei waved his fist, "Next time, if that giant anaconda dares to run out of the middle of the lake, see if I don't just pierce it and blow it up!"
Xu Xin showed a confident expression and nodded: "Don't tell me, this heavy crossbow arrow... may really cause great harm to that giant anaconda!"
If the previous blue-level heavy crossbow was still a little low in level and might not be able to cause damage to giant anacondas and could only deal with ordinary giant beasts, then this heavy crossbow arrow...
I’m afraid you don’t have to worry about this problem anymore!
With a purple-level heavy crossbow and a purple-level heavy crossbow arrow, it shouldn't be a problem to break through the purple-level scales of that giant anaconda!
It can also explode internally, causing huge damage to its relatively weak internal organs!
Now, they have really mastered the method of injuring and repelling the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake!
"Well done!" Xu Xin patted Ma Hongwei on the shoulder twice, "Your contribution is too great this time!"
At least judging from Ma Hongwei's explanation, he is very satisfied with this weapon.
He finally doesn't have to worry about something big coming out of the lake next to him all day long!
"This... I just have some ideas." Ma Hongwei was embarrassed, "If it weren't for the extremely rich resources of our explorers, I might not even have the ability to do research. At this stage, only we can use and consume such Huge heavy crossbow arrow!”
really.
Currently, only explorers can use this heavy crossbow.
Not to mention the heavy crossbow with huge consumables, this single shot is a heavy crossbow arrow with ten purple-level materials. This is a completely out of reach consumption for other regions, even for their strong organizations!
As for them, not only did Li Wenxi provide raw materials, but they also had hundreds of tree house cores, which were charged and reincarnated every five days, so they could barely support it.
But for them at this stage, this consumption is a bit too high.
After all, their demand for purple-level materials in other areas is also huge.
One heavy crossbow bolt contains five copies of purple-grade steel alone, which can be used to make a set of purple-grade steel armor!
No wonder Li Wenxi is unwilling.
This consumes too much!
The budget in other areas is directly under great pressure!
However, is this thing really as powerful as Ma Hongwei said?
"By the way, Brother Xin, there are other purple-grade steel heavy crossbows in the backpack. There are various types. I prepared them for you." Ma Hongwei pointed at the backpack and said, "I originally planned to trade them with you directly. Yes, but since you are here, I will give it to you directly.”
Xu Xin nodded, and then said: "Aren't you going to install a copy of this heavy crossbow for yourself?"
After all, he is a researcher of heavy crossbows, and he made such a heavy crossbow because he was crushed to death by a giant anaconda before. It is appropriate for him to equip himself with one.
Although the demand for materials is huge, it is not too outrageous for them now.
"No, no." Ma Hongwei shook his head and said, "Brother Xin, you should pretend. Your tree house is the most important. The attack range of this heavy crossbow is particularly long, and it can cover at least several kilometers in radius. Protect my side.”
"And my place is on the periphery. It is more vulnerable to attack than Brother Xin's tree house." He continued, "It is better for the body of this heavy long-range weapon to be in the safest position, otherwise it will be difficult to do it." It would be bad if it came out.”
Xu Xin nodded.
This is indeed true.
Ma Hongwei's considerations in this regard are quite comprehensive.
"Do you have any other ideas? Regarding the layout of the heavy crossbow." Xu Xin asked.
Although he has some plans of his own, as a maker of heavy crossbows, Ma Hongwei may have a better plan.
"Well..."
Ma Hongwei thought for a moment, considered his words, and then spoke.
"Brother Xin, my idea is that your tree house should be mainly equipped with heavy long-range weapons to deal with possible behemoths."
"The treehouses around us are mainly equipped with relatively small, low-cost, smaller weapons that can be covered with vitality, such as treehouse repeating crossbows that can be loaded with hundreds of explosive crossbow bolts, which are used to deal with small mutations. Creatures and Beasts ”
"It just so happens that now, Brother Xin, there are four people around your tree house: me, Qin Fu, Lou Fei'er, and Zeng Tao, and they are in different directions." He analyzed calmly, "With us here, if there are things like before A large-scale beast tide is coming, even if your tree house doesn’t take action, Brother Xin, we can easily keep it at bay.”
Xu Xin nodded.
Ma Hongwei is right.
Now his own treehouse is in the center of these people. If he wants to attack his treehouse, he must first cross these people's treehouses.
Even if a mutated creature crosses their tree house and enters the interior, they are already defeated and not worth mentioning.
Therefore, those conventional heavy crossbows are not so important in his tree house.
"So, Brother Xin, my idea is just like what I said just now. Let's deal with the relatively low-level and relatively large number of creatures in the beast tide. And Brother Xin, your tree house is responsible for the output of heavy weapons. The arriving giant beast poses a threat”
"Of course, we can't completely lose the ability to fight against giant beasts, so I plan to install the conventional super-heavy crossbows on the tree houses around us, and always have blue-level heavy crossbow arrows, which can at least cause damage to large enemies. A small threat, even if it cannot cause serious damage, can still buy you time, Brother Xin.”
After Ma Hongwei finished speaking, he handed the backpack to Xu Xin again.
Xu Xin nodded in agreement: "Your suggestion is very reasonable."
Ma Hongwei's idea basically coincided with his.
"However, my tree house should always be equipped with conventional weapons. After all, if a powerful beast wave appears and your tree house falls, then you must all retreat into my tree house to be reunited. By then, my tree house will It is the last fortress. This last fortress must have all means of attack.”
This plan applies not only to him, but also to other explorers.
"Even if you don't use it on a daily basis, you still have to keep it on hand." Xu Xin looked out the window and towards his tree house. "My tree house is simply very big. Even if I put all the weapons in it, it won't be difficult. But... …There should be enough materials, right?”
Ma Hongwei immediately agreed: "That's right. There should be no problem with the materials, but if you add some conventional heavy crossbows, it won't take much materials. Of course, this depends on Li Wenxi."
"However, if it's Brother Xin who needs it, there's no way they won't agree." Ma Hongwei said with a teasing smile, "Brother Xin, you should go get the materials yourself. I broke the news yesterday and finally moved you out. Got the materials for a rack.”
"...Haha, okay then. You probably don't know the power of this heavy crossbow arrow, right?"
"Indeed, I haven't actually tried it. After all, I haven't installed a heavy crossbow that can fire such heavy crossbow arrows. But the power must be huge, and I am still confident about this." Ma Hongwei looked confident, "There are three in the backpack Brother Xin, if you are worried about firing such a heavy crossbow arrow, you can also test its power.”
"Okay, I understand, then I'll go back first."
"Brother Xin, if you want to try it, don't attack me!"
Picking up Coco, who was running around pushing a metal ball on the ground, Xu Xin left Ma Hongwei's tree house.
Since Ma Hongwei made the guarantee, he decided not to try this special heavy crossbow arrow for the time being.
In addition to being too expensive, he was also a little worried that the heavy crossbow arrow would be too powerful and make too much noise, which would cause trouble if it attracted the attention of the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake or the mysterious giant beast in the hilly resource area.
There was no danger in the first place, so it wouldn't be good if he was forced to create the danger.
So, let’s wait until we can use it.
He did not return to the tree house, but came under the tree house, and then took out the overweight crossbow.
"Bang!" A heavy crossbow hit the ground directly.
"Hey!" Coco screamed as she lay on his shoulder.
Xu Xin himself was also shocked.
This is indeed...
It’s a bit big!
It is even bigger than the already huge super-heavy crossbow before!
Almost as big as the giant bugs he saw underground!
In combining its power...
This is simply a giant cannon!
No wonder he just wanted to take out this heavy crossbow in the house, but he didn't agree.
This is too big!
Xu Xin thought for a while and placed the heavy crossbow in the direction of the lake and the hilly resource area.
Lou Fei'er and the others are not in this direction, and this direction needs more protection.
However... such a heavy crossbow seems unable to cover all directions around it.
However, when he was asked to enter the treehouse and manipulate the control panel, he realized that he was overthinking it.
This special heavy crossbow, in addition to being able to shoot straight, can also be thrown upward!
This allows it to cover the entire treehouse in all directions, covering a five-kilometer radius around the treehouse!
Of course, the hit time of a projectile is much longer than that of a direct shot, so there is no problem if he chooses to face the lake.
good.
After adjusting this super heavy crossbow, he dismantled all the low-level heavy crossbows on his tree house and installed a new blue-level and purple-level metal heavy crossbow.
Multiple crossbows, ordinary heavy crossbows, and super-heavy crossbows were installed in various directions.
There were three new control panels in the backpack. Ma Hongwei knew that he had many heavy crossbows, so he gave him three more control panels.
He placed a control panel on each floor.
Swinging down from the treehouse, Xu Xin smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the fortress-like treehouse he had rebuilt.
This is really a sense of security!
It's a pity that this heavy crossbow can only be used in the tree house. If you leave the tree house, you will lose this heavy sense of security.
By the way, he remembered that Zeng Tao had the ability to make heavy weapons.
Can she make heavy weapons that can be carried?
At this time, the sound of the portal condensing sounded behind him.
Looking back, Li Wenxi jumped out of the portal.
"Ah, you're down there. I'll come to you to get new metal materials... Wow!" Li Wenxi's eyes widened when she saw Xu Xin's tree house, "What is this! This is what Ma Hongwei said, I made this super heavy crossbow for you! It’s so handsome!”
Because this heavy crossbow is so large, the canopy of the tree house cannot hide it at all. The entire heavy crossbow is exposed, like a super heavy cannon.
It looks like it's really fierce.
"Yes, that's it." Xu Xin nodded and smiled, "When the resources are sufficient, we will give everyone a fight."
"This heavy crossbow of yours has too many consumables!" Li Wenxi looked at the heavy crossbow, her eyes glowing, and then turned to look at Xu Xin, "If it weren't for the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake around you, which is a huge potential threat, I would have Why don’t you give him so many resources to do this for you?”
"Haha, indeed."
This heavy crossbow consumes too much, and currently only he can assemble it.
A heavy crossbow plus crossbow arrows, this set requires nearly fifty purple-level resources!
A heavy crossbow emptied half of their explorer's wealth!
"It's better not to do the second one for the time being. The rest of us don't need it for the time being." Li Wenxi shook her head and said.
Indeed, at present, no giant beast has attacked the tree house from the ground. Even if there is a giant beast in the future, it should not be directly at the level of the giant anaconda in the middle of the lake. After all, even the underground giant beasts have reached this level. No.
Therefore, for other people, an ordinary super-heavy crossbow is indeed enough.
"Okay, give me the meteorite you mentioned. I'm going back to try it, and I have to rush back right away. Without me, their efficiency is too low!"
"Okay, come on Wen Xi, our resources all depend on you!"
"Huh." Li Wenxi glanced at him faintly, "You are the one who eats the most!"
After collecting the meteorite resources, she did not stay and walked directly back into the portal.
Before Xu Xin returned to the tree house, his watch vibrated.
It was Ji Chaoyang calling.
"Xu Xin, I know the reason why District 1 Shi Wanyun wanted to establish a relationship with us many times."
"We have delayed the cold winter for too long, and something is really going on over there!" (End of Chapter)
