Chapter 1116 (2/2)
”Well, it's not very strong. It's similar to a more powerful crossbow... There's no problem shooting through chain armour, but it's more difficult for plate armour.”
”NAH... It has a long range?”
”The limit range of the test is 150 meters, but the actual effective power is only within 50 to 100 meters, and if it is more than 50 meters... It is difficult to be accurate.”
”Oh, is the fire fast?”
”It's faster than an ordinary heavy crossbow, but it's not much faster... It's better than nothing.”
“……”
At the end of the three questions, Carl Colin looked as if he had been thrown cold water on his head.
”Then why did you bother to make it and call me here?” the demon hunter looked puzzled: ”why don't you just equip more heavy crossbows when you spend money to make this weapon?”
What's the difference between the two? No matter how heavy the crossbow is, one person is enough. It takes two people to use this broken ”spear”.
”There are many reasons. For example, the cost of this weapon is cheaper than the crossbow. For example, using a Heavy Crossbow requires a lot of physical strength, and it only needs to button the switch to launch. For example, it doesn't need to consider the weather... And so on.”
Speaking of this, Loren Turin couldn't help thinking of what Halin van ashamay said to himself during the defense of Qianzhang city many years ago.
”One day, we can let the soldiers hold these weapons in their hands, stand 300 steps away and instantly launch dozens of hundreds of crossbows and arrows that can pierce the armor;”
”This weapon will eventually turn swords into dispensable things, exquisite armor into ornaments, and all wars into a cruel competition to compare each other and see who kills each other faster three hundred steps away;”
”Knead the glory into waste paper, make the war rigid and rigid, and turn the courage of all soldiers into jokes 300 steps away; cool killing will replace bloody hand to hand combat;”
”Finally destroy all beautiful fantasies and decorations, and let the war expose its most real and cruel appearance.”
Looking at Carl Colin, who looked stunned and suspicious, the black haired wizard smiled: ”of course, these are not the most important. The most important thing is... I promised you.”
”Yes?”
”Yes, you once said that if I thought you should continue to fight and continue to fight, you would not stop performing every task I gave you.”
Looking at the metal prosthetics on each other's body, the black haired wizard said faintly: ”this... Is the task I gave you.”
”Demon hunter Carl Colin, I now officially authorize you to command my new guard.”
”You will become the first army in the history of the Empire, all armed with empty weapons.”
”As for your name...” the black haired wizard couldn't help laughing when he remembered what he looked like when the little wizard told him:
”Tentatively, it is the 'shooting army'.”
”Shooting Army...”
At the moment of hearing the name, Carl Colin could not help holding the ”Jiao Guang spear” in his hand and whispering.
”You told me you wanted me to give you a reason to die.” Lauren looked at him seriously: ”this is the reason I gave you to die.”
”Carl Colin, under my command, more than half are knights who stick to dogma and tradition, and half are ordinary people who know nothing about the military - to make a change, I need someone who is not afraid of death and doesn't care about tradition.”
”So I give you this task, just as I give Lucian the wings of the sky.”
Carl Colin didn't speak and remained silent.
Holding the ”Jiao Guang spear” in his hand, he raised his head and looked at Loren Turin in awe.
”I understand... If this is your order, I will accept it - become the commander of the shooting army and let them shine in this war for you.”
When the voice fell, Carl Colin raised the ”bright spear” and knelt down on one knee.
From the day I stepped into LUT infinite's room, what was my tireless pursuit?
Revenge? Status? Reputation? power and influence?
Neither... I am an ordinary mortal. Of course I care about these, but this is not what I pursue.
What I pursue is a meaningful reason to die, knowing the cause and reason.
In that case, why refuse?
”Woo - - - - - - - - - - - - -!!”
The howling horn sounded from the distant highland and echoed over the whole battlefield, which made the demon hunter and the black haired wizard look back at the source of the sound at the same time.
”It's time.”
Desperately restraining the heartbeat that was about to burst out of his chest, Anson ZAD, who was calm, held the Azores elf flag tightly, stared at the Byrne flag on the distant battlefield, and
And the golden lion standing under the flag.
”My sister.”
”Yes.”
The blindfolded fairy girl, calm as water, slowly raised the ancient knife in her hand and clenched the handle with her right hand; ”Yi Chi!” with a sound, a trace of light was raised above his head.
The response to her was the sound of a blade coming out of its sheath from the highland; There are thousands of bright lights, shining like fish scales in the bright sun.
”Today -”
With a hoarse voice, the elf boy roared:
”Our Azores Elven warriors -”
”Performance agreement -”
”With the Duke of Byrne -”
”Death! War! To the end --!”
