Chapter 29: Large bear trap

Views:

After returning to the castle for breakfast in the morning and resting for two hours, Abel returned to his exclusive operating room in the blacksmith shop.

When Abel was a fitness instructor in his previous life, he often went hiking in the wild with his friends and had a lot of hunting experience.

This time, Abel based on the memory of his previous life, he wanted to make a large animal trap. Like those wolf cavalry introduced by Master Bentham, they were fast and flexible, making it difficult to trap them. If the wolf cavalry did not have enough In the case of a military encirclement and suppression, you can attack or retreat or defend. It is not easy to destroy them. It will be different if there is a trap. As long as the feet of the wolf are caught in the trap, the wolf will be injured at least. The speed of the Wolf Cavalry's wargs is offset, and the Wolf Cavalry no longer poses a threat.

The beasts and even people in this world are much stronger than the beasts and people in the previous life. Abel estimated that only by building a large animal trap can he cause harm to those wolf cavalry.

The structure of a large animal trap is divided into a circle of thick compression springs, two toothed splints, a trigger, a starting splint square frame and a chain.

After the compression spring is flattened by force, it is gently buckled with the trigger, forming a huge rebound clamping force. Once the trigger is triggered, the two toothed splints are instantly released and rebound to clamp the prey. Because the two toothed splints have not been completely closed and reset, the more the prey struggles, the tighter the clamp will become.

It is conceivable that if the warg of the wolf cavalry is caught in such a large animal trap, at the speed of the wolf cavalry, the pain of the clamped warg's feet and the fixation of the chain will cause the werewolf sitting on it to be trapped. Throw it out directly...

There is no such large animal trap in this world, and the placement of the animal trap will not attract the attention of the orcs. With some concealment methods, it will not be discovered by the orcs.

The process of making a bear trap is very simple, but the compression spring is more troublesome. According to Abel's memory, the steel used in the spring needs to have a higher carbon content to keep the steel elastic.

Abel Bailian conducted tests on rough blanks. After multiple carburizing operations, many small samples were made according to different carburizing ratios. After testing, the samples with the best results were found, and the production process was finally determined.

Then, Abel made a lot of work and made ten compression springs. Seeing that there was still a lot of material, he made several thick coil springs to use as shock absorbers for future upgrades to the carriage.

As for the other accessories of the large animal trap, Abel did not make it himself. It would take too much time. With the most demanding compression spring, other parts only need to be made of ordinary iron. This work will be left to the others in the blacksmith shop. The blacksmith helped complete it.

Abel called his senior brother Garden and asked him to come forward and make the necessary accessories according to the dimensions of the drawings drawn by Abel and complete them within two days. Garden had no problem with Abel's request and agreed to ask several blacksmiths with the best skills to work overtime to complete it. .

Early the next morning, when Abel came to the blacksmith shop, Garden told Abel with red eyes: "Master Abel, all the accessories have been made according to your requirements and placed in your operating room. "

Abel was a little surprised. He thought it would take at least two days. He didn't expect that it would be all finished in just one night. But looking at Garden's red eyes, he couldn't help but said: "Why didn't you rest last night? These accessories don't need to be like this." Finished in a hurry.”

"Several blacksmiths heard that it was your arrangement and refused to delay, so they ended the night." Garden did not mention himself, but mentioned several other blacksmiths in front of Abel.

"You should rest first. Next time I forge the Bailian sword, you and a few blacksmiths can watch on the side." Abel said with a smile.

"Thank you, Master Abel. I'll tell them to go." Garden thanked Abel, turned around and ran away.

When Abel walked into the operation room, he saw a pile of accessories placed on the floor, which had been divided into ten parts. Garden's attentiveness was evident from these details.

Assembling these large bear traps requires some effort, and Abel is always good at it. In just half an hour, ten large bear traps were installed.

Two horses were brought in, and five large animal traps were placed on each horse. After the binding was secure, Abel shook it with his hand to make sure there was no problem.

Behind Harry's Castle is a forest. Abel has been busy since arriving at the castle and has not gone deep into this forest. He has always heard that large beasts appear in this forest. Today, Abel placed a place where he was testing a large animal trap. Just stay in the forest.

Although the castle is now on alert, when Abel led the horses from the two districts out, no guards intervened. Abel's current identity is different from the one when he first arrived. Everyone has heard that Abel has become a master blacksmith. , in this world, the title of master of any profession is that of a small number of people at the top of this profession. These masters will be respected anywhere in the Holy Continent.

This is the time when the sunlight is at its best in the afternoon. The sunlight passes through the gaps in the leaves and forms patches of light, which fall on the ground full of fallen leaves. Abel’s feet make a dull friction sound when he steps on them. The horse didn't like the forest environment very much, and its nose snored from time to time.

After walking for about half an hour, Abel felt that he had gone deep into the interior of the forest. He did not see any large beasts along the way, but the large pieces of beast excrement found from time to time showed that there were large beasts here, and there were no more. The area was deserted. No trace of human activity had been found since ten minutes ago. The place to place the large animal trap had arrived. Because of the hidden dangers of the large animal trap, it could not be placed where there were people.

Abel squatted down and looked for the beast's path on the ground. Wild beasts always like to go back and forth on the same road. The ground that is often trampled by wild beasts forms an unobvious path. Experienced hunters will follow it. This kind of beast is used to lay traps.

Although Abel didn't have much experience, he was still trained in this area, so after careful observation, he found an animal path, took two large animal traps from his horse, opened the clamps forcefully, and pulled the trigger On the road, the placement of two large animal traps is very particular. The placement on the animal path must measure the size of the beast's steps. Even if the beast escapes the first large animal trap, it will be trapped by the second large animal trap. Caught in a bear trap.

After installing it, Abel made a mark on the tree. Firstly, this mark would help him notice the trap when he turned around and saw the mark. It would also make it easier for him to collect the large animal trap later. The signs all have arrows pointing in the direction they came from, making it easy for Abel to find his way home in the forest.

Continuing to walk forward, Abel would look for animal paths and install large animal traps every ten minutes. He walked slowly for more than an hour, and all the large animal traps were placed.

At this time, the sky was slowly getting dark, and Abel was about to pack his things and go back to the castle. There were only two hours until dark, and he could still see the ground clearly when he returned.

At this moment, a howl came from the distance, and there was a kind of pain and anger in the cry.

This was a wild animal caught in a trap. Abel immediately thought of the reason. In this forest, the only thing that could make a wild animal make such a sound was his large animal trap.

Tying the two horses to the tree, Abel ran quickly in the direction of the sound. As he ran, Abel also observed the surrounding environment, looking for the marks he made, so as not to be caught in his own trap. It was a big joke.

After running for ten minutes, Abel found his mark in front of him, slowed down and walked gently towards the trap.

Although the two toothed splints of the large animal trap were closed, there was no prey. Abel squatted down and touched the iron teeth of the splint with his hand. There was blood.

This must not be a beast. Although Abel didn't know what triggered the trigger, with the wisdom and ability of the beast, it would be difficult to break free from the beast's trap without the help of hands. If it is a powerful beast, it should be It is to destroy the large animal trap, not just to force open the splint like now.

Could it be human? Abel shook his head. The voice that came just now was clearly not a human voice. He was sure of this.
