With so many functions added, it is indeed more complete and more useful on the battlefield. Now it has the flavor of a truly formed army, but Shen Fu frowned.
"Although it is a comprehensive upgrade, it is still not enough to greatly enhance the strength of the magic soldiers. When facing a truly powerful enemy, none of the functions you mentioned are of much use."
It would be okay if the enemy was evenly matched, but in that place where dangerous species and Teigu users were running around, even if they just encountered an ordinary Teigu user, they would easily be damaged, let alone that kind of powerful Teigu user.
"Yes, but this is just an upgrade on the robe. What we really spend our energy on is the weapons."
Wang Mingcai smiled. The robe was actually just added with the lost alchemy equipment obtained from the lust witch Echidna. It was basically a horizontal reinforcement, except for the automatic defense cover, which greatly enhanced the survival of the Magic Army. Apart from probability, there is not much vertical reinforcement.
"Oh? Has the magic rifle finally been upgraded?"
Shen Fu was a little happy. The previous magic rifle could not meet the demand for a long time. It was actually equivalent to shooting the attack magic in the form of bullets. When using it, it also required time-consuming injection of magic power. Compared with the direct release of magic, it was more powerful. Only one bullet's kinetic energy damage is added. If it can hit, letting the magic explode in the enemy's body is not bad, but when facing a strong enemy, it is more likely that it will not hit at all.
For example, in his previous confrontation with Esdeath, the opponent just used a simple instant ice wall, which not only blocked the bullets, but the subsequent burst of magic was meaningless.
"Yes, the biggest weakness of the previous magic rifle is the long preparation time, and the more powerful the attack, the greater the consumption of magic power. If the bullet cannot hit the weak point, it will not be able to maximize the burst effect of magic. I actually have a good I reflect on whether this idea of combining magic and thermal weapons is wrong, because from the previous point of view, while combining their advantages, the two have also lost a lot of advantages."
Wang Mingcai smiled bitterly and shook his head. Magic technology is easy to say, but science and magic are two very different subjects. It is not easy to combine them. It is a big challenge for him.
"Even so, your upgraded magic weapon is still a magic rifle."
Shen Fu had already seen where the upgraded version he was talking about was. It was a giant gun-shaped weapon placed on the table aside. At first glance, it seemed to be about one and a half meters long. It was still black and had a diameter of nearly Thirty centimeters, under the barrel is a triangular module diagonally extending from the muzzle to the buckle plate, which is engraved with various complicated alchemical patterns.
"Yes, although it looks bulky, to a magician soldier, this weight is nothing at all. After sacrificing portability, it gains powerful firepower."
Wang Mingcai looked at the finished product on the table with some obsession. After learning that this alchemical pattern really existed, he was ecstatic. In his eyes, this was the real magic rifle!
Shen Fu walked up and lifted it up. The handle of the gun was not vertical like ordinary ones, but horizontal. He held the handle of the gun and raised it with one hand. It felt like he was holding a big knife. Only then did he realize that , there is really a crack on the edge of the metal triangle plate under the barrel, with a sharp blade hidden inside.
"Can this be used for melee combat?"
Although I couldn't find the mechanism there, after popping out the blade inside, it was clearly a machete.
"Haha, I just found out after the design that it weighs a lot and looks similar. I thought maybe it could be used for close combat. The point is not that. Didn't Colonel Shen realize that? There is no longer any part of the handle used to form magic. The lines are gone.”
After hearing what Wang Mingcai said, Shen Fu realized that the handle no longer had the same magic lines as before, nor was it made of materials that could infuse magic. So how to use it? How to inject magic power?
"This magic rifle does not need to consume the user's magic power during the battle. In other words, as long as it can be lifted, ordinary soldiers can use it!"
Seeing Shen Fu's puzzled look, Wang Mingcai didn't sell it anymore and continued to explain:
"Our magic soldiers are not strong enough now, and if they still use their own magic power to fight, it is easy for the combat time to be short. Therefore, the way to use the magic rifle is to use magic power to make bullets in peacetime. Wrong, we have discovered a way to store magic bullets, and the answer is the alchemical patterns on this part of the triangle. Bullets containing magic can be stored inside for a long time."
Although magic crystal can store magic, it is extremely unstable and the user cannot control such a large amount. Therefore, the magic crystal can only be injected into the magic before shooting to form magic, and then triggered after shooting. However, this is too inefficient and cannot be used. Forming firepower, if magic crystal bullets containing magic can be stored, many problems will be solved. As long as enough magic crystal bullets are made in advance, the enemy will receive high-frequency magic bombing when the battle comes, and the entire combat capability will be improved by more than one grade.
"I see, are you storing magic crystal bullets? There is also a priority on-the-spot reloading ballistics. Even if the bullets are not prepared in advance, or the prepared bullets are not powerful enough or of the wrong type, you can still use them temporarily. Bullets are used to store magic. This can indeed be said to be a real magic rifle. Thank you, Expert Wang."
Shen Fu was very satisfied with this. Although it required preparation in advance, the firepower that broke out on the spot was still very impressive.
"It's nothing. The key lies in your contribution, Colonel Shen. The alchemy patterns on it, which are the core part, were exchanged by Colonel Shen from the Desire Witch. If not, there is nothing I can do."
Wang Mingcai sighed slightly in his heart. Magic is indeed a very magical thing. It seems that any function can be realized. It is a pity that they have not yet reached the level where they can create such alchemical patterns by themselves.
"Even so, it cannot deny your credit. How long will it take for these equipment to be ready?"
He couldn't wait to see the surprise that the new and powerful magic troops would bring to the enemy.
"As long as the final stability test is done, it can be mass-produced. If there are no problems in the test, equipment for twenty people can be handed over in four days at the latest."
Wang Mingcai stretched out four fingers. This could only be achieved by relying on the more advanced, more precise and more efficient machine tool technology in the heavy equipment world.
