In the Tixilan Mountains, Molten City.
Here is a city close to an extinct volcano. The fertile volcanic ash makes the nearby crops grow extremely well. Pieces of soybean plants grow tightly on the flat terraces. Beans are also the main source of plant protein for animals.
The green terraces built around the mountain are like steps from top to bottom, covering this extinct volcano, but there is a huge grotto on the mountainside, and along the grotto is an extremely wide avenue, with moss on the road from time to time. Rock rhinos pulled mine carts in and out.
A heavy steel minecart has crushed deep ravines on the gravel mountain road. A rabbit-eared tribe in linen clothes hangs a red fruit from a long pole, which is very popular with moss rock rhinos. , as long as they are hung in front, they will follow the direction of the fruit, very obedient.
At present, the rabbits are very skilled in cooperating with the monsters in the mountains, and have established a good relationship of trust with each other. They have a very clear understanding of the hobbies and habits of these monsters. The moss rock rhino prefers a cool and humid place. If it is normal, they will not come to the inside of the volcano. However, these ores are so heavy that it is too difficult to pull the cart manually, so the rabbits have to think of other ways.
After some trial and observation, this kind of sakya fruit is very liked by these simple and honest rhinos. Even pulling a mine cart to the inside of the volcano can bear it. The rabbits also exchanged the reward for this kind of fruit. In addition, in order to take care of these rhinos Habits and protection, they will also put a bucket of water in the car, and water the back and body of the rhino from time to time with water to dissipate heat and keep the body surface moist.
The red Sakyamuni fruit is said to have been passed down from the Eastern Continent many years ago. On the Eastern Continent, it is also called Bufona, which means the fruit of longevity. Although this is an extraordinary world, there is no such thing as a destiny that can only live for how many years. This kind of fruit is just very sweet. If it is a special extraordinary variety, it can cure the dark diseases in the body and prolong life.
As the mine cart entered the interior of the mountain, waves of heat came oncoming, and the dark red fire reflected on the surrounding rock walls, and then the noise became louder and louder, the twitching sound of the bellows, the vibrato of the iron, the cooling of the steel. The sound, the sound of water boiling and evaporating, the crashing sound of giant hammers, the rabbit-eared tribes wearing craftsman's apron are metallurgical and forging metal products.
Inside the volcano is an irregular red lake. The lake is full of hot magma. Surrounding the magma lake is a wide circular walkway. Beside the walkway are workbenches. Hundreds of Rabbit-ear craftsmen are enthusiastic here. work, the crisp metal crashing sound can be seen everywhere.
A tall rabbit-eared tribe was standing in the workshop inside the volcano. He was tall, with a round waist and belly. He was wearing dark red steel armor with brightly protruding thorns on the armor, which looked a bit hideous.
At this time, a big man with black rabbit ears walked in. He was wearing a white cloak and fitted silver-white armor, followed by several gun-wielding guards wearing the same armor.
"Kanda, why are you here?" The tall rabbit-eared clan was a little surprised when the big man in the white cape came in, but with a grin that showed a familiar smile on his face, it seemed that they had known each other for a long time.
"Lushan, I'm here to see how the new armor test is going. His Royal Highness Roland Hill will pass on the plan, and the legion will be formed soon."
"Don't worry, I have been supervising and supervising here every day recently. Everyone is experimenting step by step. The basic process has been set, and the rest is about optimization and maximum cost performance."
This big rabbit in red armor doesn't speak as ferocious and thorny as his armor, and looks very easy-going and vigorous. He handed the big axe in his hand to the rabbit next to him, and strode over to give Kanda a big hug.
"We haven't played for a long time. Why don't we fight tonight and have some drinks."
"It's okay to make a gesture, but not to drink for the time being. It's important to do business." Kanda smiled and the two talked as they walked.
Considering the needs of the war, Roland Hill finally decided to form an elite army mainly composed of cavalry. Others are ordinary legions with spears, swords, and crossbows, and elites are given priority to enter the cavalry unit.
The current world of Ivar is still dominated by cold weapons. The existence of extraordinary power makes the individual's strength and physique far better than the ancient times in Roland Hill's memory. Besides, there are armors made of various magical materials, and some extraordinary jobs. With the built-in protection skills, the lethality of projectile weapons is far less than the ancient times in memory.
The attack power of projectile weapons has an upper limit, such as the pulling force of the crossbow, the loading amount of early gunpowder, etc. Even if you are a powerful Hercules, the bow and arrow you shoot are limited by the performance of the weapon, and the extra strength has no other effect than breaking the bow.
Therefore, most of the battles in this world are resolved at close range. The bow and crossbow will have a great advantage at low levels, but with the improvement of the extraordinary sequence, the effect of the bow and crossbow begins to weaken greatly after Sequence 4, unless you can attach magic power and other skills to the arrows, which It is the specialty of the elves, and other races are not very good at it.
The cavalry on the battlefield can often play a decisive role in changing the situation of the battle. If there is no cavalry, even if the opponent is defeated and the enemy flees, they will not be able to pursue much and will not be able to expand the victory. Moreover, sometimes cavalry is the most important in order to attack the enemy's weak troops, to break through the front lines, to circle behind, to outflank, etc. This is also the reason why Roland Hill, like other Forerunners, preferred cavalry.
"Kanda, though I've said it many times."
"But the old stove, I really admire His Highness."
"What happened to you?"
"You'll know when you come and take a look."
Furnace took Kanda to a workbench with two sets of armor on it, all of which were made of steel.
"Look, the one on the left is the armor that I found someone to buy in Xifeng. It is said that a certain destitute noble sold the armor left by his ancestors in exchange for money. Later, I found someone who knows how to do it. This is indeed the real thing, that one. The bastard will regret it later, this good armor shows that his ancestor should be a viscount."
Then his stout hand flipped open the top half of the armor, revealing a brass shield-shaped micro-sign.
"The pattern on this micro-chapter is a flaming hill, indicating that its owner was a veteran of the 'Quenching War' and made great contributions. It is estimated that after Xifeng established his country, he was at least named a viscount. The king is still very generous to his subordinates."
"Then on the right is the new armor we built according to the drawings given by His Highness. The amount and weight of steel used are basically the same as the west wind armor on the left."
Kanda looked at Lushan a little puzzled, and Lushan continued.
"We tested the strength of the two, guess what?"
"That must be the strength given by His Highness."
"Yes, how much stronger?"
"Three times?" Kanda slightly overestimated.
"No, ten times!"
Lushan laughed, then picked up the giant hammer next to him and knocked it down twice, the armor on the left was sunken in, and several small holes were pierced by the protruding angles on the giant hammer. The white steel armor on the right bounced slightly, making a metallic vibrato, intact.
White steel armor (rare silver level): Plate armor that has been re-improved by advanced technology has excellent toughness and strength, can disperse the impact force, greatly reduce damage, can be manufactured on a large scale, and is highly cost-effective.
This is an improved version based on the technology of the Quicksilver Dynasty after Roland Hill got the blueprint. It may not be very strong, but the low cost and fluent materials allow everyone in the legion to wear it and get good protection. After all, every life is precious, and keeping everyone alive is her most preferred direction.
