Changing the cavalry armor into an archer armor is not difficult for the master forge who has been dealing with furnace iron for decades. Archers require flexibility in the waist, abdomen, upper arms and back when shooting, otherwise it will affect the accuracy of the bow. , Bolu dismantled part of the deck and replaced it with movable armor pieces, and produced samples the next day.
Quinnier put on his armor and stretched his upper limbs, revealing a satisfied look. The tree elves are slender and strong, but the armor made by Berlu is quite fit, but the armor originally worn on the human cavalry looks a little smaller on them, a bit like a Roman half-length armor.
"It's a bit heavier," he said.
"The weight can't be reduced anymore." Master Bolu said.
It was originally a heavy armor for cavalry, no matter how it was modified, the weight of the armor would always fall on the shoulders. However, if the archer's shoulders carry too much weight, it will greatly affect the hit rate. The master forging looks back at his lord, wanting to see what Brando said.
Brando placed his middle finger and thumb on his chin, and looked at the cavalry armor with satisfaction. After the old man changed the shoulder blades and the deck of the waist and abdomen to a leaf, the metal pieces followed Quinier's movements layer by layer. Floating, it looks sparkling in the light.
"Just get a weight loss prefix, Master Peru, can you make a few more samples?" He turned his head and asked.
Prefixes are actually a kind of enchantment, and there are several prefixes for weight reduction. Among them, the "Wind Dance" of Freya Wind's back half body armor is the best one. Not only will the wearer not feel the restraint of the load, but it will feel like being surrounded by the gentle wind and gain agility bonus.
"This is not a problem, what do you want so many samples for?"
"Uh... you'll know soon."
In fact, Peru might prefer to never know, because he saw Brando take the armor from Quinnier. This masterpiece, which can be called a handicraft, quickly burned in his hands, and everyone saw it. The strong magical reaction formed beams of bright electric sparks radiating around, and finally "cracking" melted through the breast plate to form a huge cavity.
It looks like a scene after the candle melts. The metal turns into a liquid that sags inward, and solidifies again in a fluid state, leaving a hole the size of a fist.
Brando shrugged suddenly, no matter how you look at it, the armor in his hand is considered to be reimbursed.
Alchemy is a highly random job, especially Brando who wants to find a set of effective wind magic circle, just fill it with finished products.
In the next few days, the cyan flame in the furnace was almost never extinguished, and the clanging beating in the blacksmith's shop continued throughout the night. One set after another set of reformed armor became scrap in Brando's hands.
He began to use cheap wind sapphire as the magic core of the wind system. This gem is the most common main material containing wind element magic in Voend, and it is also the cheapest one. It is said to be a gem, but In fact, it is cheaper than most magic crystals.
Even during the most inflationary period in the past game, this gemstone only sold for a few thousand Thors.
However, the result of the experiment is not ideal. The best result achieved by the Wind Sapphire is the prefix of "clumsy", the weight loss has never exceeded 5%, and there are various negative attributes.
Brando then tried lapis lazuli, green olives, and azure blue prisms. One of the main materials was more expensive and advanced than the other. The weight reduction effect increased from 10% to 15%. By the fifth morning, the top Brando and Bailu, with dark circles under their eyes, finally came up with the prefix "light".
'Lightweight Archer Armor: Defense 4, additional +2 defense against arrows, 20% weight loss. '
But unfortunately this armor is still a lot heavier than expected. Quinier also said that only the sharpest archer among the tree elves can wear it to fight without obstacles, but most people can't actually reach this level.
At this time, the scrap rate of the armor-modified Sagittarius armor seized by the Chi Chi cavalry has basically reached more than 10%.
Such a result is of course not in line with Brando's requirements, his goal is to at least upgrade the tree elf archer to the strength of the third-order arms. The strength of the arms basically only depends on a few statistics, attack, defense, mobility and special abilities-as for the increase in attack power, unless Brando thinks he can get the tree elves longbow, that is the tree elves's genuine Tier 3 arms forest. The standard equipment of the shooter, but that is the product almost fifty years later. What's more, he doesn't know anything about bow making, so he might as well just think of ways to improve defenses.
But now it seems that it is also unrealistic to equip the new standard armor, at least there are bottlenecks in the load. If this problem is not resolved, it would be a fantasy to put on these magic armors for the tree elf archers.
The solution is to further increase the prefix of'lightness' to'lightness', so that a 30% weight loss is sufficient to meet his requirements. However, the improvement of the armor has been carried out so far, and the cost of just the transformation has exceeded 30,000 Tor, and it will continue to grow endlessly. Brando estimates that Antitina will come to him to submit a letter of resignation.
"No way." Master Bailu lay on his workbench, his hair messed up like a bird's nest, and said weakly: "This is the limit. If you want to lose weight without further investment, it will affect you. Defensive power."
"Let's get the elite equipment of the tree elves first." Tamar also suggested that he was invited by Brando into the plan halfway through. The future alchemist master has been helping Shire and Antitina design and build the long-planned mage tower—the noble lady’s magic lab is also in this plan.
Magic is an important productive force in the world of Vaughan, and the importance of the mage tower to the territory is self-evident. What's more, the public mana pool can also be gathered in the mage tower, which can not only greatly enhance the strength of his spellcasters, but also accelerate the cultivation of mage apprentices. And even the lowest-level alchemy laboratory can provide alchemists working in it with a bonus equivalent to an extra alchemy level. The advanced alchemy laboratory is almost equivalent to directly providing the lord with a varying number of professional alchemists.
As long as there is a little money, there is no lord who is unwilling to build a mage tower on his own territory. What's more, a good mage tower can attract more mages to become your subordinates and staff, why not do it
So Brando didn’t want to delay Tamar’s progress, but with his black hole absorbing funds, Antitina had no choice but to ask Tamar to come here to help first, otherwise she was worried that Brando would come here to help. Wouldn't use the money of the whole territory to build a super army.
In her opinion, her lord seemed to be such a brutal man, as if he would never feel safe, and always put the development of military power first.
But Brando still shook his head for Tamar's proposal. He wanted more than just a few elites. In fact, he does not lack such elites. He has the brigade mage system and the lair system in his hands. If he can, he alone can form an elite army. What he needs is a'main force'.
There are many main forces such as centaur, caveman, and tree elves, and this main force will have to stand up in the next war.
He thought for a while and replied: "You continue to test whether you can use the same material to get a better enchanting effect. I will go and find a way from other aspects."
Brando's solution is simple.
That is the Dragon Blood Potion.
Just like Quinier said, the tree elves shooters are not completely unusable for their final products, but they will more or less limit their combat effectiveness. To put it bluntly, it is the weight, but for armor, in addition to reducing weight, think in reverse, why not increase the weight-bearing ability of the tree elves
Speaking of increasing power, Brando doesn't have a second thought except for the dragon blood potion.
However, the first batch of Dragon Blood Potion was all taken by the future non-commissioned officers of the White Lion Legion, and the second batch of refined ones was handed over to the mercenaries, centaur and the tree elves who accompanied him this time. Shooter. There are few tree elves shooters in this part, but only one or two hundred, and the tree elves in the forest can at least organize an army of over a thousand.
In the same way, Brando wants to build not only the Tier 3 arms of the tree elves, but also the Centaur. In this way, the dragon blood potion he needs to use may exceed thousands of bottles. This is not a small number. The blood from the multi-headed dragon is definitely not enough. Brando needs to find more raw materials.
The acquisition was too late for a while, and Brando didn't want it to drag Ampeisel's trip to the back. He quickly thought of a way, that is, to cultivate a multi-headed dragon by himself.
And when it comes to cultivating a multi-headed dragon, of course it is to use the nest. But ordinary territories generally do not have enough space to accommodate the nest. For example, the fir collar felt that it could not find the natural magical gathering place. Brando naturally hit the abacus on Valhalla's head.
That said, since he left the Black Forest, it seems that it is time to rebuild this fortress that once carried countless glories.
Brando simply left the work of the blacksmith's workshop to Boru and Tamar, while he was buried alone in the core circle of Valhalla. The core circle of Valhalla is actually not complicated. , It just needs a lot—a surprising amount of magic crystals.
If this requirement were placed in the past, Brando was expected to be crazy, but at this time the first group of people who went to the Black Forest had returned. The immigrants established a small mine in the forest under the protection of mercenaries. Although not many magic crystals were mined, they were enough to meet Brando's initial needs.
However, although Brando devoted himself to arranging the magic circle, he was not too incapable of extricating himself and completely ignored the news of the outside world. He knew very well that at this time in history, Princess Griffin should be ready to go to Amperexel to start negotiations with Anlek.
Since the Moon of Spring Dawn in the Year of the Sword, Her Royal Highness has actually reached an agreement with Grand Duke Anlek to a certain extent.
He was actually a little hesitant, whether or not to let Her Royal Highness and Anriek contact first, after all, with Anriek from the north in front, Tonigel would not be caught in the biggest vortex of the crown prince dispute in the first place. But Brando quickly made a decision that as a princess party, he would never allow history to repeat itself.
Now that she has made up her mind, she wants to sing a good show when the princess goes to Ampersel, and this time the stage is naturally the largest trading port in Eruin. The time has been set, and everything he is doing now is actually to prepare for the next trip.
Brando didn't let go of the work at hand, but sent Shire and his men the cards to look for the Journeyman. He knew very well that he would not be able to take a large army when he went to Ampersel, and even the black wolf would not be able to follow it. What really depended on was the brigade mage system and his own strength.
However, after the Battle of the Black Forest, the brigade mage system is now basically in a semi-crippled state. To bring this system back to life, Brando knew that first of all he needed a new method of digging the grave.
He arranged all this in a planned way. Starting from the end of the month of Winter Qin, the upgrade of the army, the reconstruction of Valhalla, and the search for the card of the Journeyman were all proceeding in an orderly manner. To outsiders, Tonigel seemed to be It was very quiet, but there was a slow and startling change inside.
This silence was maintained until the first week of the Moon of Spring Dawn, when a message was passed to Brando's desk.
