Reinforced gloves are naturally one of the node skills of the Supreme Choice school. Coupled with the prerequisite knowledge of D-level reinforced components, it requires almost exactly one-third of the experience.
In addition, the main function of the enhanced component knowledge in front of it is to allow the selector to use enhancement-related components and plug-ins to improve the efficiency of similar devices. This skill is basically similar to the simple component knowledge in other aspects, so there is no need to go into details.
However, when Fang Plover strengthened his component knowledge to reach D level, he once again chose the Kaolin-Ithurian school.
Because this choice not only has the synergy bonus with the basic magic theory, but also has a well-known advantage-Caulin-Ithurian has a 30% cost adjustment when making related components, and it is related to The mass reduction is only 5%, which is an unparalleled advantage for non-critical parts.
This advantage has even led many selectors of the Oshur Empire to choose this school of thought in terms of component knowledge despite the penalty of synergy. Therefore, this choice is not difficult to understand. After all, as a free selector, funds can be saved. Province.
Weapons such as reinforced gloves are considered special arm armors in the classification, and generally speaking, combat craftsmen who choose this node will work part-time in combat professions such as combatants or monks.
But Fang Plover's brain circuit is obviously different from that of ordinary people. Not only did he not choose a fighter or a monk, nor any type of powerful melee character, he went to ask Parker for advice and learned Nightingale's related skills-the use of grappling hooks. Series related skills.
The rest of his experience was devoted to production-related skills - including metallurgy, finding new ways and rearranging thinking skills - after all, whether he was making a dragon knight construct or fulfilling his promise to Miss Sylvide, he was required to do so. We must continue on the path of master craftsman.
What's more, as a lone wolf, he is not like those selectors from big guilds who can have a huge logistics team to serve him.
For alchemist life professionals, the early improvement of skill levels is basically based on the level of their core skill "Basic Magical Theory", but the core skill often means that it has a wide range of implications, such as Kaolin-Yi The next level improvement of the basic magic theory of the Thurian School involves such things as E-level metallurgy, E-level pharmacy, E-level plants, and D-level mineralogy, as well as the prerequisite knowledge and knowledge of no less than four production skills. Skill.
In addition to the two production techniques of careful production and refinement provided by the D-level basic magic theory, Fang Piao naturally had to choose two other production techniques. He chose a common 'restructuring idea' and another rare one. 'find another way'.
Among them, reorganization of ideas is a mainstream skill of the traditional craftsman school. Its function is to pause during production, allowing people to relax physically and mentally and restore a certain amount of mental consumption. At the same time, this skill is also an important prerequisite for a lot of related skills and knowledge. It is basically one of the must-select skills for alchemists.
Finding a new path is a part-time skill of the Founder School. Its main function is to reduce the difficulty of making drawings with a certain success rate at the expense of lowering production accuracy. This is often very significant when craftsmen make difficult drawings.
And for Fang Plover, whose character level is not high yet, this skill can have a big effect even at this stage, and it can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.
After learning two production skills, it was almost impossible to study D-level mineralogy, E-level botany and metallurgy at the same time for the remaining experience, so Fang Plover chose metallurgy, which was the most practical for him at the moment.
Metallurgy can enhance the quality and production progress of craftsmen in metallurgy and the production of metal-related affix equipment. It also has a synergistic bonus with forging. It is also one of the prerequisites for the important knowledge of the master craftsman in the later stage - metallography.
It is basically one of the knowledge that every master craftsman must learn.
After the remaining one-third of the experience was distributed, Fang Plover's level naturally reached half of level eight.
In Aitaria, the level experience requirement of the chosen one increases once every two levels before the third level. The fifth and sixth levels require 50,000 experience, and the seventh and eighth levels require 60,000 experience. Therefore, the cognitive experience is 220,000. Basically just enough for him to make the leap.
And in fact, because the part-time Nightingale used combat experience, the experience he finally got was higher than expected, and the experience gap between level nine and level nine was only 20,000 to 30,000.
The increase in level will bring about a large increase in the number of panels. Since most of the learning is knowledge and theoretical system abilities, the first ones to be affected are basically the related attributes of intelligence and perception.
Among them, the intelligence evaluation was upgraded from E- to E+ by two levels in a row, and the perception evaluation was upgraded from F to F+. Specifically, the memory was increased by 19 points to 56, and the computing power was increased by 24 points to 79 points. The learning ability is increased to 192%, and the logical analysis correction is increased by 1%.
In terms of perception attributes, language and perception are each increased by 9 points, hit correction is increased to 31%, and learning ability correction is increased by 2%.
Nightingale's related experience mainly brought improvements in agility. Although the evaluation remained the same, the basic speed and hit rate were increased by 5 points each. In terms of strength, the load capacity was increased by 2kg and the combat load by 1Kg.
Looking at his new panel and abilities, Fang Yu also made a rough estimate of his frontal combat capabilities. He believed that he could basically reach the same level as Attila, Parker, and Hongye without the assistance of Miss Tata. degree.
Wu Di and Liu Liyue, who are more well-equipped, are at best second-tier. The actual outcome between the two sides actually depends on their on-the-spot performance.
In fact, if he guessed correctly, Hong Ye, Wu Di and Liu Liyue should all have chosen the Immortal Knight School - which is also the most mainstream school for summoned combat craftsmen at the moment - the skills of the Immortal Knight School are mainly to improve combat craftsmen. Compensation for computing power when operating a single flexible structure and enhances its combat capabilities.
This ability allows combat craftsmen to manipulate higher-level flexible constructs at lower levels. The advantages it brings are obvious, especially at certain key level nodes, when fighting with the school abilities of the construct lord The craftsman's flexible structure may even be a level lower than the immortal knight's flexible structure.
For example, at the ninth or tenth level, the Immortal Knight may use the Walker III or the Annihilator in advance. Those with luxurious equipment like Wu Di and Liu Liyue will directly skip the level and use the Shield Guardian or even the Fearless. , and compared to the average Construct Lord who is still using the Walker II type around level ten, this advantage is fatal.
Because even if the Construct Lord can control two Walker IIs through the mirroring technique, in fact it can only be tied with an enhanced Walker III or Annihilator at best, and it is even difficult to gain the upper hand.
Not to mention the confrontation with the Shield Guardian and the Dauntless, even if they are not strengthened, it is basically a brutal killing of the Walker II.
Of course, once the key levels are crossed and there is no generational difference between the flexible constructions of the Construct Lord and the Immortal Knight, this advantage will disappear. But how many people are willing to feel uncomfortable every time they reach a critical node?
However, Fang Plover's situation is somewhat different.
Based on his powerful computing compensation ability, in fact, at level five, he could barely control the Walker III combat with the help of Miss Tata, which is simply unimaginable to ordinary people.
Now as the level of the controller increases and the computing power increases significantly, Fang Plover can actually control the Walker Type III by himself. Coupled with the mirror skill, it is possible for him to dual-control the Walker III type. In a one-on-two situation, the Immortal Knight can only be beaten no matter how hard it is strengthened.
What's more, the two Walker Type IIIs are not without power against the Shield Guardian and the Fearless One.
If you include Miss Fairy's auxiliary ability, the situation becomes a bit more subtle - Fang Plover can now barely reduce the computing power requirement of Walker III to 60%. Counting Miss Fairy's ability, it can be Just half or less.
His computing power is now as high as 79 points, which means that after controlling a Walker III, the computing power balance can reach more than 40 points.
What does this mean?
This means that with the help of Miss Tata, he can almost meet the control requirements of the third flexible structure in the mirror technique.
Of course, Fang Yu has just made the first Walker III according to the drawings, and he really doesn't know what the experience of three controls is. However, he conservatively estimated that if he fought with all his strength, he should have no problem protecting himself against opponents of the strength of Siesta and the Lion Paladin.
On the other hand, although the Berio was temporarily out of the storm circle, it seemed that the Green Dragon Mountains were close at hand.
However, there is actually a considerable error in the visual distance above the sea of clouds, and the Berio's flight speed is not very fast. According to the old captain, it will take at least a day and a night to land ashore.
But after leaving the cloud and rain area, the airship's navigation became relatively stable, and the bumps were less obvious. Coupled with the continuous rain on the deck, everyone lost interest in going up to the deck to see the scenery, and simply closed the door to prepare for the next adventure.
The team had already discussed it, and Princess Brianne agreed to their plan to travel overland to Cloudport, the administrative capital of Fenris Island.
Everyone will wait there for two days for the Berio. If Berio does not arrive as scheduled, the team will take other ships to Grand Port.
Although this does not save much time on the road, it is more cost-effective than waiting for the storm to pass on the Berio, and you will gain a lot of adventure experience during the journey.
The shape of Fenris Island is somewhat similar to a triangle with one corner missing. The missing corner is called Fenris Bay and points to the south. Cloudport is located in its southwest corner, facing the northern continent of Kaulin (Equin).
If the Green Dragon Mountains are regarded as the base of this triangle, then the triangle becomes flatter as it goes south, and Jinwan is located on the vertex of this triangle at the northeast corner.
The road from Golden Bay to Cloudport is basically equivalent to crossing Fenris Island, so the necessary preparations are indispensable.
Luo Yu and his three trainees have been conducting actual combat training with Mr. Big Cat for the past two days. Sometimes Luo Yu is alone, and sometimes Tianlan and Jita will play.
Naturally, Tian Lan used the Magic Harp of Karn's Gift given to her by Fang Plover. This little girl was also upgraded after Dolifen and his party. In fact, all three trainees were promoted to 'full level' after this adventure. In addition to the original repertoire, she also learned one or two more repertoires that could assist the team in battle.
Jita fought with a non-attribute magic gun. Yes, it was the ancient model that Fang Plover first used - the seven-style magic gun. The output was not small, but most of them were later eliminated and were lost among the people. It has become a must-have item on merchant ships and cargo ships. There happened to be some on the Berio, and Tianlan bought several of them back at a very low price.
This is also a helpless move. Luo Yu and Tian Lan still have some fighting ability, but Jita's ability is basically irrelevant to fighting, and the little girl insists on participating in the battle with others. Fang Yu originally planned to let her help control Hui Mr. Yan's ballistae - yes, he planned to install a ballistae on the platform, one on the left and one on the right. During the actual combat training, of course, she had to use a magic gun instead.
Generally speaking, it was Fang Plover who was responsible for teaching Jita how to use firearms. He had learned some relevant experience in Kapka, and he had also experienced actual combat with a seven-type musket.
Sylvide and Shesta will occasionally act as teachers - as professional gunslingers, the latter is of course much more professional than Fang Plover, but this noble lady usually doesn't spend much time in the activity room. .
The conditions on the ship are still not suitable for experimenting with beta crystals, but Fang Plover doesn't care too much. He has a lot of things to do. In addition to the crossbow on Mr. Gray Rock's platform that needs to be completed urgently, there are also reinforced gloves that need to be designed.
Although the Reinforced Gloves skill itself provides a sample, that sample is, after all, prepared for combat craftsmen on the path of the Supreme Choice, and is not suitable for everyone.
Fang Plover made a prototype from the beginning - due to the addition of armor plates at almost all key positions and the redesign of the structure, the thing was more than half heavier than the original control gloves.
The first time he tried on the gloves, he was a little unsuccessful. Although his strength increased by more than one kilogram, the change in the center of gravity of his hand felt very awkward, which almost made it difficult for him to even control the flexible structure. Not to mention fighting at the same time.
This was obviously not in line with his design ideas. The second time, he simply drastically reduced the defensive power of the gloves, leaving only the front part of the armor, and then added a small Gaelin buoyancy device as a plug-in to solve the problem. Glove weight gain issue.
Although the cost is that the blocking value of the gloves is reduced by 30%, and there is an additional 10M of magic energy consumption, but overall the design has achieved Fang Plover's original expectations.
Next comes the main event.
He added a small winch device to the glove, which was driven by the magic furnace that came with the magic buoy, and then an air compression furnace - the same thing on Shesta's gauntlet, but Fang Plover installed it in reverse. .
The total combat weight of Siesta's gauntlet is 29 kilograms. This thing needs to be worn on Fang Plover's hand. It is not called a weapon, but is called a shackle. Fang Plover's small body naturally does not dare to do that, so he chose a quite A small compression device cannot be used to create wind walls and wind blades.
But there is definitely no problem in achieving the desired purpose.
Since the original drawings were there, Fang Plover completed the related production before the Berio arrived at the anchorage - the small compressor was not complicated, and the relevant component knowledge was already available. Fang Plover worked in El Pachin It has already been purchased.
The small winch is a ready-made one removed from the grappling hook device. The latter was bought by Fang Pliance from Parker. This guy tried to claim that the grappling hook was his ancestral treasure, but was knocked violently by Aitila. After Li, I became honest.
He picked up his gloves just as a cheer came from above the deck.
Tian Lan ran over excitedly and told him that the Berio had entered the anchorage. Fang Plover simply put on his gloves and came to the deck with the little French girl.
After he put on the gloves, the thing was still much heavier than the original control gloves. In fact, the gimbal was not light to begin with. It was more than half heavier than the old-fashioned orbital gloves, and the reinforced gloves were even heavier. The full weight There are more than five kilograms.
If it were him who hadn't upgraded before, he really wouldn't be able to carry this thing.
The reinforced gloves appear to be much thicker than the original gimbal. The back of the hand and the dial have metal shells, which not only reduces the heat dissipation function, but also greatly improves its defense.
However, Fang Plover has modified the appearance so that it does not look too bulky. When worn on the hand, it looks like a somewhat heavy metal arm armor. The Victorian relief on the lower brass shell makes it look quite delicate. and beautiful.
Then he pushed down the sleeves of his robe, leaving only a glove with a shining metallic luster. Fang Pliant shook the palm of his hand and it felt very comfortable.
It was still rainy on the deck, the sky was as gloomy as lead, and the storm clouds still hung on the left side of the ship, seemingly very close at hand.
The huge clouds seemed to be moving forward slowly, but in fact they were sweeping across the north of the sea of clouds at a speed of more than a hundred miles per hour.
Looking from a distance, an occasional flash of lightning flashed between the clouds.
Fang Plover followed Tianlan through the crowd on the deck and looked to the other side. The Berio had lowered its height before and came under the clouds. The towering peaks on the starboard side were clearly visible, and the dense vegetation above could even be seen clearly. of vegetation.
A group of blue sheep were passing under the cliff. They seemed to be attracted by the loud sound of the Berio's floating engine and raised their heads to look at these uninvited guests.
But soon, they scattered and disappeared at the other end of the forest.
When the two of them passed by Siesta and found the noble girl, the maid glanced at Fang Plover's reinforced gloves very coldly and said in a rare voice: "Sneaky and suspicious."
Fang Yu looked at the pair of gauntlets on the back of Siesta's waist and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. His gloves really secretly borrowed the opponent's design - of course, in terms of size, they were dwarfed by the comparison.
And Tian Lan seemed to have noticed Fang Plover's new gloves just now, and said in surprise: "Ah, Brother Ed, your new gloves are finished!? Why didn't you tell me, have you given it a name?"
Sylvide turned around just in time, put down the sextant in her hand, and looked at the two of them with a half-smile.
Fang Yu scratched his head, thought for a while and decided to give this glove a resounding name based on its function:
"Well, it's called..."
"Yeah, Rocket Flying Punch."
"That's the name."
…
