Chapter 802: The magic bottle and more new gadgets
The advantage of the magic bottle is not that it allowed Zong Shen to spend millions of points of magic energy in vain.
After all, Zong Shen doesn't care about the consumption of [Magic Crystal] reserves in the territory. Anyway, all losses will be restored after the challenge is over.
The bottles captured from the aircraft will also disappear.
Regarding the fact that items will go back and disappear after a challenge, in addition to heroic talents, core members such as Uncle Dwarf, Tiezi, Alanna, or Princess Jenny also basically know about it.
It is definitely a wise choice to use the magic bottle in the territory before the challenge ends.
Because the biggest advantage of the magic bottle is that it has a faster magic energy output speed.
Only when the output efficiency is high enough can the aircraft's high-mobility combat requirements be met.
In other words, using the magic bottle to charge can achieve faster magic energy replenishment efficiency, which is crucial in war!
Among them, the ones that benefit the most are [Thunderland Wonders (Incomplete)], [Magic Energy Charging Tower] and [Red Gold Barrier Pillars (Gold)]. The faster these buildings charge, the greater their role.
[Red Gold Barrier Pillar]'s shield strength value is completely linked to magic energy. 1 point of magic energy is equal to 10 points of strength value. Assuming that Zong Shen can charge 10,000 points per second, then he can charge it 10,000 points per second. Restoring 100,000 points of solidity is so simple and crude.
"How much faster is the output efficiency of the magic bottle than the manual input of magic power by the magic crystal and the caster?"
Zong Shen straightened the magic bottle, leaned against the edge of the workbench, and asked the question that concerned him most.
Iron Hand Barenke seemed to have been expecting Zong Shen to ask this question for a long time.
It rubbed its hands and pushed up the goggles on its head.
"These bottles can be connected in parallel!"
"I just tried 12 groups of parallel connections, and there was no problem at all."
"However, due to insufficient time and preparation, we have not yet had time to conduct more parallel experiments."
"The output efficiency of a single magic bottle is 25 times that of low-level magic crystals, 5 times that of mid-level magic crystals, and the output efficiency of high-level magic crystals is the same. As for the manual input by the caster, it is incomparable!"
"Those low-level spellcasters need to meditate for a minute or two to charge hundreds of points."
Iron Hand Barenke reported all the test parameters of the magic bottle to Zong Shen.
When he mentioned the time, he couldn't help but look up and saw the roof of the workshop...
"Shows current challenge countdown."
(21:53:42)
More than ten minutes have passed since the battle on the northern front ended.
The dark orcs' second wave of offensive has not yet been prepared.
Because none of the four light spots circled in his field of vision moved.
Three of the large light spots represent the three dark orc attack camps, and a small light spot represents the assault camp.
Speaking of which, he was really calm in that raid camp, motionless like a bastard.
He put on a posture of eating melon and watching a show, which made Zong Shen even more wary.
This kind of friendly force charge and me carrying the flag reminded him of his "old and cunning" self.
So he silently raised the threat level of the raid on the camp.
Seeing Zong Shen's thoughtful expression, Tie Zi added cautiously.
"Sir, the speed can be increased after parallel connection. The speed of 12 groups of parallel connections is equivalent to 12 times the output efficiency of advanced magic crystal!"
"Each high-grade magic energy crystal contains 10,000 points of magic energy, and the natural error does not exceed 10%."
"The magic energy output efficiency is about 500 points per second."
"After 12 groups of magic bottles are connected in parallel, the magic energy input can reach 6,000 points per second!"
"Based on my experience, this is far from the upper limit of the magic bottle."
"You must know that the magic bottle is a power supply component of a combat aircraft. It is made of excellent materials, so it can be preserved in a high-altitude crash. This is also to ensure that the magic bottle will not be broken and detonated during air combat."
"Magic riots are a terrible situation."
"So I estimate that it can connect at least 100 groups in parallel."
"Once successful, the magic bottles in parallel will be able to output 50,000 points of magic energy per second!"
"Of course, such a large-scale parallel connection will also quickly consume the magic bottle reserve."
"So we can mix and match freely."
"For example, for buildings like the [Red Gold Barrier], a high number of parallel magic bottles are used to supply energy to ensure that the shield can be restored quickly."
"The rest of the buildings use small groups of magic bottles connected in parallel. Together with the previously arranged charging team, they can also meet wartime needs!"
Ironhand Barenke put forward his own opinions and suggestions in a clear and logical manner.
"It makes sense, let's do it."
"When the battle is over, I will give you some top-secret formulas."
Zong Shen showed an enigmatic smile. This was another use of the [Strategy Module] that he had thought of while he was in the air.
He could have asked for the recipe and written it down.
Even without the blessing of the lord's manufacturing privileges, he can still let Tiezi find a way to reproduce it!
"Oh my god, Lord, your decision is a wise one!"
Ironhand Barenque jumped up and down like a monkey when he was excited.
With a look of excitement on his face, he waved his hands unconsciously.
"By the way, Lord Lord, I made a brief observation on some broken magic bottles."
"However, due to limited time, we cannot conduct rigorous research."
"I found that the material of the magic bottle does not belong to any known natural materials or magic materials or forging materials in the Endless Continent."
“Its strength is somewhere between precision forging and fusion alloys.”
"Has some resistance to corrosion and impact."
"But materials with similar properties should be found in the Endless Continent."
Ironhand Barenque added that it came to the magic bottle and reached out to rub the bottle.
If the time for this challenge hadn't been limited, maybe Tiezi would have been able to come up with some tricks.
"You did very well!"
"The next task for you is to complete the production of the magic bottle output device as soon as possible, and try a higher number of parallel experiments, and give priority to the distribution of magic bottles to the supply team of [Red Gold Barrier Pillar (Gold)]."
"I need you to complete this task in three or four hours. Let Mariel allocate the required materials to you. I can even ask the dwarf uncle to suspend the task of the blacksmith shop to assist you!"
Zong Shen already understood the strategic significance of the magic bottle.
Having this thing is enough to greatly improve the defense level of the territory.
"Promise to complete the mission!"
Ironhand Barenque stood up straight and solemnly agreed.
Then it turned to Steelfire Pierce, who was standing next to the flatbed trailer, and said seriously.
"Let's move, boys!"
"The blueprint for the magic energy output device is on the b4 workbench. A mechanical engineering apprentice is qualified enough!"
"Okay, Master Ironhand."
Steel Fire Pierce nodded, and then saluted Zong Shen once again, stroking his chest before leaving.
Not long after it left, Carlos Carlos finally dragged another flatbed truck to the central workbench. There were even more things on this flatbed truck.
Including an airborne anti-aircraft gun with a length of just over two meters. According to the caliber standard of the earth, the barrel diameter of this thing is at least 20mm.
There is a rectangular magazine next to it, which is fed by a flexible elastic chain. The magazine can be placed separately.
Since it is an airborne magic firearm, it does not have a stand, which looks a bit strange.
In addition to the onboard anti-aircraft gun and matching ammunition magazine, there is also the square bomb launcher.
This thing looks like a square box, about one and a half meters in diameter.
There are movable pylons on both sides, allowing it to be hung on the side of the belly, and the launch angle can be slightly adjusted. However, the related mechanical structure may have been deformed long ago, because the bomb launcher itself has been severely deformed. Thankfully, the Dark Goblins are obviously very good at setting up bombs to explode.
The small bomb inside did not explode after the crash, which is the only good thing.
But this is not absolute. Some aircraft still exploded a second time after landing.
Judging from the degree of deformation, the sturdiness of the bomb launcher is not comparable to that of the magic bottle.
The Power Storage Department appears to have a higher security level than the Weapons Department.
Zong Shen said nothing, waiting for Iron Hand Barenke's introduction.
He found that this kid was quite clever, and his various plans were very good.
Let him experience the joy of working together as a team.
You no longer have to worry about everything yourself.
"Master Iron Hand, I brought everything you asked for."
Oil machine Carlos bowed slightly.
"Sir, these are the weapon systems loaded on the aircraft!"
Iron Hand Barenke nodded to it, and then focused his attention on Zong Shen.
It also knew that time was tight, so it started introducing it immediately.
In response, Zong Shen raised his eyebrows and gave Tie Zi an affirmative look.
The latter walked to the side of the magic anti-aircraft gun and introduced it solemnly.
"This is the automatic magic firearm equipped on the enemy's aircraft."
"It adopts the automatic principle of air-guided magic injection."
"It is worth mentioning that the magic energy formulas of these so-called dark goblins are obviously different from those of the Endless Continent."
"As much as I hate to admit it, these 'distant cousins' of mine do have a way of doing things."
"They incorporate more active energy into the magic gunpowder."
"That's darkness!"
"Therefore, their magic gunpowder is 30% more intense than the common version in Endless Continent."
"In order to suppress the ultra-high intensity and make it safe and controllable, this thing is added to every round of ammunition..."
Ironhand Barenque grabbed a scattered ammunition from the side of the magazine.
This is a 20mm caliber pointed ammunition with a shorter shell in the back.
The primer at the bottom is neither mercury fulminate nor common primer materials such as lead azide.
Instead, it is a smaller black chip.
In fact, there is a similar design in Endless Continent, just like the [Explosive Crystal (Purple)] that Zong Shen got before. The slices of that thing are the materials used in Endless Continent to make primers for explosive firearms and ammunition.
Obviously this black chip has a similar effect to [Explosive Crystal (Purple)].
The tip of the ammunition is engraved with patterns or runes, which shows that the ammunition is made using rune material forging technology.
I saw Ironhand Barenque walking to the workbench holding this thick ammunition.
It quickly clamped the ammunition on the vise, and separated the cartridge case with three strokes of the hand-held tool.
A small pile of magic gunpowder was poured out.
The gunpowder here is really strange. The gray powder is mixed with red and dark black rare crystals.
Their production process is related to magic energy, and can be regarded as a combination of magic technology and black powder materials.
Ironhand Barenque stretched out a finger and stirred in the pile of gunpowder.
As the pile of gunpowder gradually dispersed into a puddle, it soon found something the size of a pinky fingernail.
It held this thing in the palm of its hand and handed it to Zong Shen.
Zong Shen raised his hand to take it, looked at it carefully, and found that this thing was some kind of small beetle.
The back shell is smooth and delicate, with a gem-like texture.
The legs on the lower abdomen are curled up, making it look like a gem or crystal.
He stared intently, and a detailed attribute introduction appeared on the side.
[Crystallized dark pod (blue)]
[Quality: Excellent]
[The specially processed dark pods after death are in a crystallized state and can suppress dark energy so that it does not corrode with external energy]
(A biological material developed by the dark goblins can effectively suppress the active properties of dark magic gunpowder. You must know that dark energy can react with almost any energy to produce terrible corrosive effects)
…
Just when Zong Shen took the opportunity to check its properties.
Tiezi also happened to start explaining.
"Sir, this is a special kind of insect."
"It can suppress the terrible dark energy and prevent it from escaping."
"Look here!"
As it spoke, it turned around and pointed at the pile of magic gunpowder again.
In just ten seconds, the pile of magic gunpowder changed.
Wisps of black mist floated out. Zong Shen took out the [Lei Luo Horn (orange)] and tried to sing [Chain Lightning]. When the thunder began to gather, the black mist seemed to be attracted and floated over.
The azure blue thunder that had just gathered was instantly contaminated, with a trace of ink contained in it.
"Sir, please shoot there!"
Iron Hand Barenke also saw the signs and quickly pointed to several metal dolls with traces not far away.
It looked like a dummy for testing. Zong Shen did not hesitate and directly shot the [Chain Lightning] attacked by dark energy at the metal puppet.
"Zi la..."
An ink-colored electric arc shot out, hitting the metal doll and then rebounding several times.
After the arc dissipated, obvious marks were left on each metal doll that was hit.
This is the so-called process of dark energy invasion.
They seem to be attracted to elemental magic and cause it to change.
It feels like it's going viral.
The [Chain Lightning] just now made him feel a less obvious sense of loss of control when it was brewing.
But the specific changes didn't seem to be obvious, except that the lightning itself was dyed a black-gray color.
It should be because there is not much dark energy in the gunpowder!
