"Xiao Bai, I want to use the forge to make some drawings. What should I do?" Leng Xiyue found Xiao Bai enjoying life lying on a beach chair she got from nowhere by a river and asked for advice.
Xiaobai did not answer her question directly, but asked instead: "Do you know why the soul space is also called the spiritual space?"
Leng Xiyue was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the beach chair where Xiaobai was lying. She seemed to have some enlightenment, lowered her head and began to think.
After a moment, Leng Xiyue stretched out her hand, and an AK47 appeared in her hand.
"You have a good understanding. In the soul space, everything you imagine can be summoned out of thin air. Just like in an extremely lucid dream, you will also get real feedback. It is the same as the recliner under me. In addition, The essence is an extension of your consciousness, and only soul rings and things like my soul body form can be brought in in a true state."
"Well, I roughly understand." Leng Xiyue nodded, and then continued to test the AK47 in her hand.
She knew the specific effects and general process of the firearm, but she couldn't remember the structure inside. Therefore, although the AK in her hand felt like a real gun and could fire bullets, the overall feeling was more like A simulated model.
However, with the function and specific image, as well as the corresponding output method, the rest should be left to the forge to complete.
Leng Xiyue tried to submit her ideas to the forge, and soon received feedback from the forge. She felt that there was something more in her mind. The structure of the ak in front of her became clearer in her eyes, and each of them She already knew every part.
With a thought, the ak in front of her instantly disintegrated, with various parts floating in front of her.
With another thought, these components were quickly assembled according to her ideas, and they were soon restored to their original appearance.
If these parts are manufactured in reality and assembled according to the method just mentioned, Leng Xiyue is sure that a real ak47 can be restored in reality.
The existence of the forge is like a supercomputer, automatically deducing the original structure of the item envisioned by Leng Xiyue. The more detailed it is, the more appropriate it is. Even if the restored structure is different, the function must be strictly in accordance with What Leng Xiyue envisions to achieve is also the optimal solution under corresponding resource constraints.
However, since it is a reduction, it also means that if the impression of a certain product is not deep enough, the forge will not give any feedback, such as a nuclear fusion engine. Leng Xiyue tried to imagine something about a nuclear fusion engine. Description, but because she is completely ignorant of the output method, energy conversion process, and structure, and only knows the final effect, such a complex product cannot be directly perfected through the forge, and the same is true for nuclear bombs and so on.
This also means that most products in two-dimensional and science fiction games cannot be realized. After all, they are fantasy things with no theoretical basis.
It's like a nuclear fusion reactor. If she is a cutting-edge scholar in this field and puts the theory in hand through the forge into practice again and again, she will definitely get satisfactory results.
It's like an auxiliary device to make up for her half-heartedness. After all, she still has some knowledge. She used to be obsessed with playing games such as Battlefield, Hearts of Iron or Civilization, and unknowingly she also made up for the corresponding history and weapon development. They all know about aircraft, tanks, warships and so on.
With the auxiliary function of the forge, it has become possible to restore these equipment that are not very high-tech or familiar. You can also find ways to conduct localized research to improve its applicability. Vehicles that require engines can also try to use them. Modify it into a soul-driven model, and use a soul master to replace the engine's work to make up for the industrial shortcomings.
It's like bullets and cannonballs. If there are no corresponding minerals on Douluo Continent, what if gunpowder is also replaced by soul power? A soul master can use his soul power to perform skills, so his soul power should also have the ability to explode, right?
These localization projects are definitely not enough to have drawings alone. They also need a professional team to cooperate with the research. However, Wuhun City is full of talents, so gathering a professional team should not be a problem.
With her thoughts at this point, Leng Xiyue quickly recalled several models of rifles, but this time they were from a much older time. Rifled guns from World War II, World War I, and even the mid-to-late 19th century were all restored.
This is Leng Xiyue's money-making plan.
In terms of arms, Douluo Continent is undoubtedly a blue ocean. It is hard to imagine that now that the civilian side has developed to such an extent, military tactics still stop at cavalry charges. The guards and patrols in Wuhun City also wear armor. It is estimated that When fighting, you just go up and kill people with a knife, which is no different from the Middle Ages.
Firearms are undoubtedly a good choice to 'help' them improve their war status.
Of course, Leng Xiyue is not an arrogant person, nor does she think that any firearm made casually can be extremely sought after by people. It must at least reach the level of Tang San's Zhuge Divine Crossbow before it can compete to affect the war situation. force.
In terms of craftsmanship, the manufacturing of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow is more sophisticated than that of firearms, and the parts are smaller and more complex. Even so, such a complex product can be mass-produced by the Qibao Glazed Sect. So, a firearm with a relatively simple structure Naturally, the conditions are met for it to be manufactured. At most, the output is smaller than that of a military factory that uses machine manufacturing.
Objectively speaking, the power of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow and other hidden weapons cannot be underestimated. The earliest matchlocks and flintlock guns were cumbersome but did not have the power of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, nor did they have the potential to completely subvert the cavalry charge, so they passed directly. Let’s start directly from the rifle models from the mid-to-late 19th century.
Judging from the value of the insinuation, leaving aside the factor of premium acquisition, it should be possible to auction a few thousand gold soul coins in the end. Even if it is laid on a large scale, it should not be a problem to sell hundreds or even thousands of gold soul coins at a single price. Then the Zhuge Divine Crossbow The market price should be around two thousand to three thousand.
The profits of these two hidden weapons are as high as dozens of times, so it shouldn’t be a problem for me to make a rifle that can be made with ordinary steel and sell it for one or two hundred gold soul coins, right?
Although ordinary rifles are not as explosive as these two at close range, they can shoot far and are not like those two things that can be loaded with arrows for half a day. For the army, muskets that can support continuous combat are obviously more suitable for installation.
After selling tens of thousands of units first, and then some "minor" upgrades occurred in technology, it is reasonable to take out the upgraded version and continue to take advantage of them, right?
After all, Tang San did not have the ability to mass-produce hidden weapons at the beginning, and it would be more than ten years before the Qibao Glazed Sect began mass production. He took advantage of this period to sell these antique models to people in the two empires. Going out to get money in exchange for things, when Tang San wanted to sell the Zhuge Godly Crossbow, it was probably his turn to sell the AK or MG series machine guns, not the Zhuge Godly Crossbow Dog.
Sales are definitely not a problem. The two empires will definitely spare no effort to develop armaments in order to defend against the Soul Master. If there is such a weapon that can cause damage to soul masters by ordinary people, they will definitely buy it like crazy.
The most important thing is to prevent reverse engineering, but since the forge can restore the structure, it should be possible to make some innovations on this basis.
Before that, the most important thing was to promote the superiority of the new tactic of 'queuing to kill', giving them the illusion that if they had enough muskets, they could kill the Wuhun Palace in a war.
In fact, restoring the firearm blueprint is just the most basic use of the forge. This kind of weapon actually has no technological content, and her ambitions for technological development are definitely more than that.
