There was constant gunfire at a training ground deep in the ant nest. Tianxing held up the newly developed XC rifle and kept shooting at the target. The XC rifle has an effective range of 500 meters, a magazine capacity of 15 rounds, and is twice as lethal as a pistol. Its range is several times that of ordinary bows and arrows. After repeated experiments, its lethality is second only to the magic arrows shot by a seventh-level magic archer. However, its advantage is that it is common, and a civilian can become familiar with and use it in a short period of time.
The XC rifle is one meter long and can be equipped with the newly developed Starlight Thorn. The Starlight Thorn is fifty centimeters long. The Starlight Thorn is made of special metal used to make the barrel. It is sharper and more resilient than ordinary iron weapons. , is another invention of Lu Shou. It can be placed on the waist and used as a combat knife. It is usually installed on an XC rifle as the main weapon for close combat.
"Very good, it's more perfect than I imagined. It can cause significant damage to level 7 and lower warriors within 500 meters. Even level 7 warriors can't withstand continuous blows. The premise is that they can hit him. Now it can be done in a month." How many such weapons are produced and what are their properties in various aspects?"
After Tianxing fired all the bullets in one go, he touched the rifle with a face full of joy, and asked Lu Shou beside him with a bit of admiration.
"Your Majesty, the materials required for XC rifles are extremely precious. Now we have insufficient materials. If we don't count the materials, all the craftsmen can produce a thousand such weapons and ten thousand Starlight Thorns a month if they work hard. One hundred thousand rounds of special bullets,"
"After testing, the attributes of the XC rifle are more than three times that of ordinary bows and arrows, equivalent to half the damage of an eighth-level magic archer, but the distance is comparable to that of an eighth-level magic archer. Since we tested the highest-level It is an eighth-level magic archer, so it can only be compared with an eighth-level magic archer."
"Due to the new copper bullets we use, the core of the wind rabbit can only drive fifteen rounds of such bullets, so the current magazines are all fifteen rounds, but the rate of fire is twice that of ordinary archers. If we organize an army like this and have enough regular combat ammunition, we can theoretically destroy ten times the ordinary army."
After hearing Tianxing's interrogation, Lu Shou immediately made a detailed report of all the test data to Tianxing. Lu Shou's words made Tianxing's eyes light up. Spring has arrived in the Principality of Stars. As long as an army like this is armed, it can completely Invincible on ordinary battlefields.
Lu Shou has been working hard to develop rifles since he entered the ant nest. After thousands of years of inheritance and the perfection of countless generations of ancestors of the Lu family, the current firearms are quite complete. Lu Shou just changed their forms and slightly improved them. , so the first rifle was produced in just one month.
As soon as the pistol was produced, Lu Shou notified Tianxing immediately. When he heard the news, Tianxing immediately dropped everything and hurried to the ant nest. Tianxing immediately picked up the rifle after seeing it. A new name, and the XC rifle was born.
"You don't need to produce the materials in one line at full capacity, but you must keep it confidential and try not to let the craftsmen master the core technology. Even if this thing is hidden underground forever and not used, others will not be able to learn how to make it. From today on, outside Those Tiger Guards will come in for training in shifts, and they will be the first batch of troops equipped with XC rifles,"
After Tianxing heard Lu Shou's report, Manshang told Lu Shou that in Tianxing's mind, even if these weapons were never used, the technology could not be spread outside. Through Lu Shou's introduction, Tianxing knew that if rifles were popularized, the pattern of the mainland would change. Earth-shaking changes will occur, so the technology cannot be transferred to outsiders under any circumstances.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured that I have done some tricks on the crystal core. Even if they get the firearms, they will never learn how to make them. First of all, no metal other than the alloy I invented can make such a powerful rifle. The most they can do is Just a little stronger than ordinary archers,"
"Secondly, I concealed the crystal core. Once the bullet is fired and the crystal core disappears naturally with the disappearance of energy, even if they get the firearm, they cannot continue to use it. Besides, the wind rabbit is only found in Maple Leaf Plains and not in other places. Even if they know the principle, they will be unable to fully equip the army just like us,"
"The last thing is the most important point. I designed a spiral pattern in the barrel. When the bullet passes through the barrel, it will rotate at high speed. This way the bullet can hit farther and cause more damage. Unless they I can disassemble the barrel and observe carefully, which is why the firearms I used before could only cause damage to professions below level five samurai at most,"
"Your Majesty, I am now developing a firearm with a longer range. Its range should be 800-1000 meters and more lethal. However, one crystal core can bear up to five such bullets, but I believe that such a firearm It will definitely be comparable to an eighth-level magic archer,"
"But the only regret is that after thousands of years of development and research, the power of firearms has come to an end, and it is impossible to continue to improve it. Otherwise, I will definitely develop a firearm that can instantly kill earth warriors. By then, the whole continent will hear about the principality. Trembling at the name,"
After hearing what Tianxing said, Lu Shou confidently assured Tianxing that as the only survivor of the Lu family, Lu Shou believed that no one in the world could surpass him in the research of firearms, but in the end Still with regret on his face, he complained to Tianxing.
Indeed, as Lu Shou said, firearms have been very perfected during Lu's more than a thousand years of research, and there has not been much progress in the past few hundred years. If Lu Shou had not improved the barrel, the firearms would have been at best It's just a matter of shooting a seventh-level warrior. There is no hope at all for those who are above level seven, unless the warrior above seventh level removes all the fighting spirit from his body and lets them slaughter him.
But it's different now. Lu Shou's improved barrel can now cause damage to level 7 warriors. If Lu Shou improves the bullet, it will no longer be impossible to kill level 8 warriors, but this is also the limit. It is simply impossible to kill a warrior above level eight unless all his fighting energy is consumed.
You must know that the Earth Warrior is not dead just standing there waiting for you to keep shooting. Ordinary gods can't keep up with the speed of the Earth Warrior. They can't even aim. What can you do if you have a gun? Unless that gun is also an Earth Warrior. In the hands of ordinary people, even if they are equipped with rifles, they may not be the opponents of the seventh-level warriors, because their reactions cannot lock the seventh-level warriors at all.
