Ten minutes later, when everyone arrived at the Imperial Capital, what they saw was a machine that was as tall as half a person and seven or eight meters long. Such an awkward aspect ratio certainly did not come from the body of the machine, but from the machine itself.
The two long large iron pieces extending out from the main body look like a railroad track without sleepers.
If it’s not an electromagnetic rail gun, what else could it be?
Although the "rail" is wrapped with coils, the turret itself is a detachable exposed turret, and it looks full of unprofessional wasteland style, but it is indeed an electromagnetic rail gun.
"It's really done!" Yu Lian looked at the rail gun and touched his chin: "You didn't encounter any technical difficulties, did you?"
"You have refined the drawings to this level. If you can't figure it out, everyone's book will be in vain." Although Mr. Lubo was praising you, his smile was always a bit forced.
He watched with his own eyes how everyone assembled the rail gun from the scattered and shapeless parts bit by bit. And it was not just him who witnessed the entire process, there were at least one or two hundred people in the team.
Of course, a rail gun that can be used for long-range fire suppression is not an ion cannon for a single soldier. After all, some parts cannot be pressed out by everyone with a simple lathe. After all, they still have to be made by hand by skilled technicians or even psychics.
Some core components were even forced to use alchemical means. But the problem was that for all things that had to be solved by "unconventional" means, Yu Lian also gave alternatives.
Whenever he thinks that there are at least two digits of people present who have learned how to rub a rail gun from scratch, Mr. Lubo always feels horrified.
"It would be great if we could knock out a few more." Yu Lian touched the rail gun's crude but still full of evil gun body, and let out a sigh of regret.
"It's dirt!" Claire finally couldn't help but said loudly: "In order to ensure the performance you mentioned, I almost pawned off my underwear! If nothing else, just say it's an energy battery... Humph, you
Can a biological battery created by digging into the belly of a worm survive?"
"Of course I can't stand it." Yu Lian shook his head.
Although the biobattery technology of the Koromi people is very sharp, the requirements for natural materials are still very high, and there are still limits to what can be achieved if only relying on indigenous processing methods.
"The battery was made by me using the Beren crystal in our Morning Star! Don't think that you are the only one who made the sacrifice in this world!" Krel said loudly.
This guy definitely melted his duck-bill hammer. However, a shimmer-level Noble Phantasm can theoretically be "mass-produced". This chaebol prince actually acted so sad. He was obviously acting.
Yu Lian was too lazy to pay attention to the other party and just said to everyone: "Okay, since it is made from our arsenal, I will name it 107 as a matter of course. Who agrees? Who objects?"
Everyone looked at each other, thinking that this name was worse than AK. In the end, Mr. Lubo just laughed a few times: "This is as good as your pleasure."
"That's good, let's try the cannon first." Yu Lian observed the cannon body and confirmed that there were indeed strong rollers underneath, which should be made of metal axles. The clever mechanical structure design allows the cannon body to adapt
Almost all-terrain action. This is not my own design, it must be the free play of a thoughtful and ingenious partner.
"Who designed this?" Yu Lian asked casually.
Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, the vice-captain of the Holy Tree Guards, the taciturn Terrabi named Gangli, raised his hand cautiously.
"Yes, I am, what's the problem?"
"No, very good design. Have you studied mechanical design?"
The Terrabi scratched the cat hair on his head sheepishly: "I am studying in a technical high school. But I have liked carpentry since I was a child, and I also built a handmade shop to supplement the family income."
"It's true that experts are among the people! Look at people, you, an intellectual with a senior engineer's license, aren't you ashamed?" Yu Lian glanced at Krel.
Please eat the boat you were on before, thank you! I have never seen such a shameless person in my whole life! Claire rolled his eyes and was about to start a fight, but Yu Lian didn’t give him a chance to speak at all, commanding
Everyone said: "Push 107 over there."
He pointed to a platform halfway up the mountain. The friends used various tools to make it smoother and pushed out a gentle slope, which is one of the warning lookouts for the entire camp processing factory area. The view there is excellent, standing on it
, the plains in front and the mountains in the distance are all visible.
"If you want to test the artillery, where is the No. 2 platform over there? It faces the sea." Lubo suggested.
Everyone thinks it's good. Bombarding the sea surface can judge the power of 107 by the height of the waves, and maybe it can also make the divine food hidden on the continental shelf react and determine its location in advance.
"No need." Yu Lian smiled and said, "That big turtle will always come out. In comparison, we had visitors just now. It's not rude to come and not return."
The eyes of He Wen and Agnes, who had just come back to watch the excitement, immediately lit up. The former quickly picked up two boxes of artillery shells and went to the observation platform, but the latter said: "Then I'd better go over and investigate. At least make sure the other party is sure.
We can also target the location of the camp more accurately."
"You also said that the opponent should be full of experts. They will be discovered by us, can you guarantee that they will not be discovered by the opponent? We have no chance of winning in an encounter with an elite team."
Agnes admitted that what Yu Lian said made sense, but she was still a little unwilling to do so. She felt that her role in the team was getting smaller and smaller.
"Turtle battle...ah no, I still need to rely on your strength during the final boss battle. At this time, just recharge your batteries."
Because Yu Lian's attitude was very sincere, Agnes decided not to regard this as a word of comfort to herself.
Within a few minutes, everyone worked together to push the 107 cannon onto the platform halfway up the mountain and fixed it. Yu Lian took an arm-long cannonball from He Wen - although these were not specially made, they were just
It is a very ordinary steel awl, but the solid feeling in the hand is still very comfortable.
Yu Company placed the shells on the breech and began to aim at the hill on the opposite side.
In fact, there was no need to aim, the shooting range was so wide and the target was so big, even a blind man could fire it. He just wanted to enjoy the feeling of firing the first shot.
The faint blue electromagnetic wave flashed across the two iron bars, as if batteries were used to form sleepers between the rails. The cone-shaped shell came out smoothly and disappeared in an instant. It was not until this moment that everyone felt
There was a scream that broke the sound barrier and a blast of air.
Immediately afterwards, the extraordinary ones with better eyesight saw the instant collapse of a certain mountain peak on the opposite side of the plain.
The power of the rail gun is so unpretentious and boring, and the effect on physical targets without protective covers is also simple, clear and intuitive. This is still in the atmosphere. If it is in outer space without air, the effect will be even more intuitive.
"You see, as long as we blast the shells over, they will be in a dilemma. I really want to appreciate the way the other party is furious but unable to do anything. Although I can't see it with my own eyes now, just think about their expressions,
I was very happy." Yu Lian walked off the fort and said to everyone: "Everyone can fire a shot and shoot out these two boxes of shells. Well, we can cut through those hills that don't look pleasing to the eye.
That’s right. Come and have dinner after the fight.”
After leaving these words, he clapped his hands and walked away, heading towards the open-air kitchen behind the factory.
The friends looked at each other in confusion, and Krell suddenly raised his hands and shouted loudly: "My second shot! No one is allowed to take it from me!"
Yu Lian estimated that after the two boxes of shells were finished, Viscount Shameen on the opposite side would have some reaction, and then he would just show off his tactics. But in fact, the reaction on the other side was more painful than he imagined.
.
Everyone maintained a rate of one shot every three minutes and continued to fire towards the mountains on the opposite side. This was not because of the 107's rate of fire, but because the time for everyone to exchange and aim was taken into account.
Everyone didn't know what they were doing, but at least watching the mountains on the opposite side being chipped away one by one, they felt like they were pushing blocks, and they suddenly had a bad taste.
Then, just an hour later, when the first box of cannonballs was fired, a cannonball operated by Agnes herself accurately flattened the top of a mountain. The rolling boulders drove countless amounts of sand to slide along the hillside.
It came down and rolled along the natural slope between the mountains. At first glance, it looked like a crazy flood, rolling down in front of a group of imperial knights.
The "torrent" formed by these boulders and sand was no more than twenty meters away from where Viscount Shameen and his friends were camping.
Even psychics can no longer keep calm when looking at this crazy scene.
"For example, if it were us, we should be able to escape, right?" Although the expression of a three-ringed "cyborg man" was relatively calm, the wavering in his tone could not be concealed.
"Maybe we can use spiritual energy to stabilize the mountain?" A three-ring "priest" said. But she used a question, obviously she didn't have much confidence in herself.
"How long can you keep it stable? Ten minutes, twenty minutes? What's the point?" A three-ring "renovator" complained angrily. He was working on the hillside just now, thinking about arranging several defensive measures for the camp.
, as a result, he was almost buried by mudslides and rocks. Although he escaped with the help of his spiritual power, he was still bruised and embarrassed, and he was still very angry.
"The other party is actually shooting intimidation." The "Ranger" of the third ring ignored the chattering teammates and directly said to the silent Shameen: "They don't know where we are, and the next shot can only hit us.
Further away."
Viscount Shameen sighed and looked at the surrounding mountains. At this moment, except for the hilltop that had just been cut off behind the camp, the closest hit to his side fell more than a thousand meters away, literally in the middle of the dense forest.
A huge pit was dug out. Everyone was frightened when they saw it. If we say that at the beginning, the big guys regarded the blind firing of cannons on the opposite side as a peep show, and even laughed at it. From that shot,
Even the most arrogant and ignorant guy couldn't stop laughing.
The only good thing is that there was no fire, but the problem also arises. What if the next shot really causes a fire? Should you save it or not?
If we save it, our side will definitely be discovered. If we don't save it, the fire will burn to the camp sooner or later.
At that time, Viscount Shameen knew that he could no longer stay here.
"Even if we retreat, we can't retreat too far. We..." The ranger was unwilling to give in. But he hesitated for a long time and couldn't figure out where he should retreat to and set up camp again.
"As long as it is within the range of the opponent's rail gun, it is not safe. Moreover, the opponent is only using solid armor-piercing shells. This should be just a warning. But none of us can guarantee that the opponent will hit it with the next round.
Could it be a high-explosive bomb?"
In fact, the high-explosive shells used by rail guns are still a bit difficult to process. Even with Yu Lian's current methods, it will take some time to grind them out.
But Shameen doesn’t know!
In his opinion, the opponent has even developed ion cannons and rail guns, and maybe they can defeat a Titan next time. Thinking of this, even he, a genius child in the Astral Knights, is under great pressure.
, let alone others.
"If I were alone, I would definitely hold my position and then find a way to counterattack." Viscount Shameen sighed: "It's just that half of the people in the camp are not psykers, and we can't let them take this risk.
.”
"They should obey orders." The ranger gritted his teeth.
"Most of them are not astral knights like you and me, and they are not even soldiers. If we don't move now, the other side will only need two more shots, and our loose alliance will collapse directly." Shameen shook his head.
Shaking his head, seeing that the other party's face was still livid, he comforted: "As an officer, you can't expect your soldiers to be indestructible elites who have experienced hundreds of battles. We can only play based on the trump cards in our hands... This is also the case in the Knights.
The first lesson learned, right?”
Of course, the ranger understood this and smiled bitterly, his voice getting lower and lower: "My written test scores have always been higher than yours... But, Ymir, have you thought about it? If you are leading everyone to retreat at this time,
What does it look like to the whole galaxy? You are once again running away in front of that person! You didn’t even have to fight at the very least, and you just ran away!”
The corners of Viscount Shameen's mouth seemed to have closed, but he still forced out a pretended indifferent smile: "There is nothing we can do about it. If we hold it here, even if we are not wiped out by one shell, we will still be able to do it.
Sooner or later, audiences across the galaxy will see our ugly behavior of being unable to withstand the pressure and collapsing on our own. At that time, everyone will not think that it is a group of athletes who cannot withstand the bombardment, but that the Imperial Army led by the Astral Knights is under the enemy's artillery fire.
The army was defeated by the sound."
"Yangxia" had to admit that what the other party said made sense, and his face turned a little gray.
"In comparison, being forced to transfer is at least a little better. Anyway, after I learned about the death of Rumil and the others, I didn't run to fight that person immediately, and I already had the consciousness I have now." Shameen
However, he had a clear idea and clapped his hands and said: "Then, Kovna, organize it and let everyone move."
However, the other party did not move, gritting his teeth and said: "Then, the divine food can only be given to that person, right?"
Shameen did not answer.
"...This is the second time! Ymir, after all, this is the second time we have escaped, and once we escape, it may be the last time for this God of War Festival. I admit that although running away is shameful, it is very useful. However, we
It's the Astral Knight! Ymir, if you keep running away like this, the image left to the world by the Astral Knight in these two hundred and fifty years will be nothing but the clown who killed innocent people indiscriminately but was killed by that person.
What a coward who fears the enemy like a tiger! We haven't even fought a serious battle with him. We are Star Knights! Ymir, shouldn't you know better than me what this title means?"
Shameen looked at his companion in silence. After a while, he saw that the other party calmed down a little, and then he said, "So?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." Kovna whispered: "You are the one who suffers the most. I'm sorry."
Shameen ignored the other party's apology and gave the order calmly and calmly: "Let everyone pack their belongings and leave the trail along the south side of the mountain after the landslide stops. You only have ten minutes."
