As more and more basic rune arrays are parsed and simplified into universal rune substrates, the equipment of Cecil soldiers will inevitably usher in a new update. In Gawain’s vision, a complete set The version of Cecil infantry equipment should include such a system:
The energy system is a combat backpack equipped with high-efficiency hive magic nets and magic capacitors, which can charge a large number of magic crystals at the same time and also There is excess magic power to drive various energy-consuming units on the soldiers; the protection system uses machine-stamped steel armor as a carrier, and various protective arrays and auxiliary arrays are engraved inside the armor to achieve protection against external magic and poisonous gases. , Comprehensive protection from physical attacks. Traditional enchanted armor is expensive, but using a universal magic circle to achieve an effect similar to enchantment can greatly reduce the cost. At the same time, the force field shield in the arm armor is also part of the protection system; the weapon system, mainly The thermal energy ray gun equipped in the arm armor and the sword in the soldier's hand, the former has been mass-produced, while the latter has no idea of improvement for the time being. In Gawain's idea, even if the soldier's cold weapon combat project is retained, Sisi The swords of your combat soldiers must also be modernized. Traditional steel weapons are too weak when facing opponents like aberrations and extraordinary beings, and various enchantment effects are necessary.
But how to improve traditional swords requires careful consideration.
In addition, what Gawain hopes to achieve is instant communication on the battlefield.
The importance of communication technology is self-evident. It allows every soldier to receive real-time commands from the rear on the battlefield, and allows every commander to immediately understand changes in the battle situation. A military force with modern communication technology The combat effectiveness that the troops can exert is unimaginable by the traditional aristocratic army, so adding a communication system to the "Cecil Combat Suit" is a top priority, but unfortunately there is no plan yet.
The communication spell does exist, and the Mithril Treasure House has also created communication equipment like the Mithril Ring, but this special spell is a "technical black box" from Gawain's point of view. Its magic principle has not been clearly analyzed yet, and the rune composition of its magic circle is completely inconsistent with the rules of conventional magic circles. Jenny's rune logic is not perfect enough to be able to understand such a magic with unknown principles. Simplified analysis has resulted in the fact that the cost of communication magic props cannot be reduced for the time being, and failure to reduce the cost means that they cannot be used on soldiers...
A force field shield module has been added The battle gauntlet looked unchanged in appearance. Gawain re-closed the shell of the gauntlet. When the clear click sounded, he looked at Rebecca next to him: "More things can be integrated into the gauntlet. Modules can add more replaceable components. Now that it has both offensive and defensive properties, it can be considered from the auxiliary aspect, such as the first-level 'Secondary Purification Technique', or the lighting trick 'Magic'. Light spell', this is a spell that consumes very little energy, but can have a great effect..."
Rebecca and Jenny are notAt some point, she had already taken out a small notebook and was taking notes while listening. Jenny couldn't help but raised her head and asked in the middle of recording: "But Lord... after adding so many functions, this Is the gauntlet still a 'heat ray gun'?"
"So I said from the beginning that the gauntlet is just a carrier, and the heat ray gun is a part of the gauntlet, not its All," Gawain smiled. Only then could he explain his original idea clearly to the two girls in front of him, and only then could they fully understand what the so-called modularity meant. "This kind of arm armor, we It should be given a separate name - I named it 'Magic Terminal', and depending on the modules loaded in the terminal, it can be a thermal ray gun, an energy shield, a communicator and a medical device , or even lightning launchers and fireball launchers. Different arms can use its different functions, and even... we can also develop civilian models."
Rebecca finally reacted: " So...this is what you really thought at the beginning?"
Gawain nodded, and then smiled helplessly: "Unfortunately, if I told everyone at that time, most people would not listen. I can’t even imagine it.”
Jenny looked at Gawain in astonishment, and she suddenly had a strange feeling—this didn’t seem to be an ancient hero who lived seven hundred years ago. , nor is he a Lord Cecil living in modern times. What this Duke exudes at this moment is an aura that does not belong to this society or even this world at all. He is looking at this from an almost bystander's perspective. What happened on this land, and based on this, he carried out a plan-that plan was so grand and so beyond the understanding of contemporary people that even if he casually mentioned any step of the plan, no one would know it. I can understand what he wants to do...
But this feeling is only fleeting, because Gawain suddenly raised his hand and knocked the head of Amber who sneaked up from the side of the table - that person The Lord, who is approachable and has a unique sense of humor, is back again.
"What are you doing sneakily?" Gawain stared at Amber who suddenly came out from the side of the table. The latter obviously wanted to scare her, but she didn't expect that her stealth effect would be affected. The protective spiritual energy around Wen was released in advance as soon as it was stimulated. At this time, he was hit on the head. The half-elf lady covered her forehead with an aggrieved look on her face: "I'm here to report the situation to you. Are you going to hit someone..."< /p>
"Don't make trouble, is there anyone stepping on the shadow to report the situation?"
"Hey," Amber curled his lips, "How long will it take for you to finish your work here? Pitman Let me tell you, the No. 1 reaction tank of the alchemy factory is in place, waiting for you to come over and accept it."
"Ah, I forgot about this!" Gao Wen suddenly slapped his forehead. He knew that the No. 1 reaction tank of the Alchemy Factory was completed today, but the batch of rune substrates and the design progress of the magic armor sent by Jenny and Rebecca made himHe completely forgot about it. At this moment, Amber came to remind him. He immediately stood up and put down the gauntlet on his hand, "Jenny, Rebecca, I will go to the alchemy factory first. You can go back to the design work of the universal substrate." Arrange it yourself - the progress is good so far, I'm very satisfied."
Jenny obediently put away the drawings, base plates, and gauntlets on the table, but Rebecca obviously did not intend to return honestly. Going to the research institute, she came up and grabbed Gawain's arm and shook it hard: "I'm going too, I'm going too! I'm also going to the alchemy factory! I haven't seen what it's like over there..."
Gawain glanced at Silly Roe Deer: "What did you go over to do? It was just the completion of the reaction tank, not the completion ceremony of the entire factory - and you don't understand alchemy."
"I can go over and let him go Two fireballs to add to the fun! Shouldn't something worthy of celebration be set off with fireworks..."
Gawain immediately glared at her: "If you dare to throw fireballs in the alchemy factory, I will treat you as a fool. Throw the fireball!"
"I'm talking about throwing it into the sky..."
"Not even in the sky!"
Rebecca stuck out her tongue. , raised a hand honestly: "Then I swear in the name of ancestor Cecil, I will definitely be honest..."
Gawain was about to nod when he heard it, but suddenly he woke up Wei Lai: "I am your ancestor!"
Rebecca: "..."
Amber next to her quietly came to Jenny and whispered to the latter in a low voice : "Do you feel that the communication between these two people is like a brain trap?"
Jenny has now adapted to the atmosphere in Cecil's territory, but she can't adapt to Amber's mouth, and she suddenly She didn't know how to continue: "I...I don't know what to say..."
"Hey, it doesn't mean anything at all," Amber glanced at the unappreciated Rune Master with disdain and turned her head. Looking at Gawain, "Old Zongzi, are you still leaving? It's fun to bicker with your granddaughter..."
As soon as Amber opened her mouth, she successfully diverted the attention of Gawain and Rebecca. There was no conflict at all...
Anyway, in the end, under Rebecca's persuasion, Gawain took the overly curious iron-headed boy with him and followed Amber and his party for three days. The people went to the location of the alchemy factory located on the edge of the town.
Even with the new construction technology of "black technology" level, the alchemy factory is far from completed. Currently, only the No. 1 workshop and supporting storage facilities have been completed. There is only one group in the No. 1 workshop. The reaction tank has completed the closed assembly. In Gao Wen's vision, at least three workshops and twelve sets of reaction tanks are needed here to meet the production of basic alchemical chemicals - agricultural plant catalytic chemicals, soil conditioners, and weed suppression. There are more than a dozen kinds of basic potions, such as Druid healing potions, weak mana potions, various disease-repelling mixtures, etc. In the hands of traditional alchemists, these potions are all in the same place. It was prepared in a small alchemy laboratory using an alchemy table and several reaction bottles., but this operation obviously cannot be used in a factory: the reaction vessel in the factory will continue to operate, and both the addition of materials and the output of finished products are performed in batches and uninterrupted, so except for a few special circumstances, each agent It requires a dedicated set of reaction vessels.
Therefore, Pitman divided the basic medicines into twelve "production lines" and three different workshops according to their properties. The workshops were isolated from each other to form different areas to ensure that the medicines produced were not Will mix and cause accidents - in fact, if Gawain's requirements are followed, potions for ordinary people, potions for extraordinary people and potions for agriculture should not even be produced in the same factory, but now the territory Conditions are limited, and the cost of operating three alchemy factories at the same time is extremely high. In addition, druid potions are fundamentally different from the "pesticides" Gawain knew in his previous life, and the basic potions currently scheduled are not very big. Because of the risk of pollution, he approved the practice of placing three workshops in one factory.
But he also specifically made a request to Pitman - if we want to produce higher-level medicines with greater effectiveness and side effects in the future, we must completely isolate the entire production process. , from raw materials to semi-finished products to finished products, there must be no hidden dangers of mixed contamination.
The tall reaction vessel stands in the still empty production workshop. Pittman, the apprentices he brought out and the ordinary workers he recruited are busy around this new set of equipment. This is an unprecedented set of equipment. The device is different from any alchemy container that has ever existed in this world, it is also different from the various magic machines that are booming in the territory, and of course it is also different from the chemical equipment in Gawain's memory of his previous life——
At its center is a two-meter-high vertical iron tank. Several curved pipes connect the iron tank to several surrounding small reaction vessels, forming a star-like radial structure. Those pipes are not only The circulation tubes for materials and gases are themselves part of the magic circle. Where these "pipeline magic patterns" are connected to the reaction vessels, you can see shining druid magical runes and various magics. The runes complement each other, and on the surface of some reaction vessels, large and small magic arrays can be seen shimmering. On the "base" of the entire device, the surface of the cement platform that is more than ten centimeters above the ground. It is the key to everything: the inverter array.
It extracts the magical energy from the underground magic network and converts it into "natural power" that can be recognized by the Druid magic array. Through such a magical conversion process, humans have mastered the power that once belonged to The power of the gods.
