Chapter 975: The Neglected Compass
"Science and technology are the primary productive forces, do you understand?" Lu Kuan said as a matter of course.
"Crunch crunch ~"
The old goblin scratched his scalp and looked confused.
Due to the existence of magic, the later mages are indeed equivalent to super weapons, and even weapons of mass destruction, if there is a mage on the ship during a naval battle, throwing two fireballs can blow up the enemy ship.
But in Lu Kuan's experience, as long as you don't reach the legendary level, it's all.
Because only legendary-level NPCs can achieve real 10,000 enemies or even 100,000 enemies, even if a golem as strong as a god is now, it will be worn to death sooner or later in the face of crowd tactics.
At the moment, the reason why most people, including Medu in front of them, think that artillery is not useful in actual combat is because there are no large artillery warships or even fleets that can form a scale in the game.
Are you a great mage?
I also have a mage, but my mage does not fly into the sky to be a target, but is responsible for protecting the warship.
Anything, as long as it is formed in a reasonable way, will inevitably undergo qualitative changes.
In Lu Kuan's limited memory, the factors that affect the power of shipborne artillery in the game are probably caliber, range and rate of fire, among which range is something that needs to be considered in the later stage.
Because in peacetime naval warfare, the distance between ships is one or two hundred meters most of the time, and at this time, the rate of fire is much more important than the range.
Lu Kuan's order to the rune dwarf craftsmen is also studied in this direction, when shooting normally, the range can reach 1000 meters is enough, the key is to ensure the quality of the shot at the same time, try to speed up the frequency of shooting, this has a lot to do with the proficiency of the gunner.
One of Kenway's important tasks was to train qualified gunners as soon as possible.
As for large-caliber artillery and long guns with a range of more than 2,000 meters, Lu Kuan did not plan to bother to study them for the time being.
"The effect of the artillery, you will understand it when you see it later,"
Lu Kuan didn't explain to Medudo, and said directly: "Let the craftsmen be careful, test it and then load it on the battleship, I want a kind of ace ship that can fight five." ”
"Subordinates remember." Medu hastened to respond.
Lu Kuan continued: "This period of time costs a lot of money, and not being able to make ends meet will become the norm, but don't save it, let me build the castle of the enclave and the camp of the mage tower as soon as possible, we have saved so much money just for now." ”
Maddu immediately straightened his chest and said seriously: "Yes! Rest assured, my lord, these are all important matters related to the future prospects of our Rune City, and everyone must be in good spirits! Oh yes, the teleportation array is almost complete, and it will be up and running in a week. ”
Lu Kuan laughed when he heard it, and he was in a good mood: "Really? That's great~"
As soon as this teleportation array is built, the scale of trade with Kailamo Khan will be tripled, and the pressure on funds will be immediately reduced by more than half.
"Tomorrow Mongo will go to Rapidsport and hire some craftsmen to go to the Mage Tower, we don't have enough manpower ourselves,"
Lu Kuan said to the old goblin: "You send more guards to go with her......"
Medu listened carefully to Lu Kuan's instructions, and the clerk behind him recorded Lu Kuan's words word for word, which was the only standard to refer to when carrying out specific affairs in the future.
"Didn't Baker train another batch of cavalry of a hundred men? I remember arranging for them to go on a business trip to get some training. ”
"It's been arranged, and at a normal pace, they should have crossed the Woodthroat Outpost by now."
"Oh yes, in terms of funding gaps, you can start with Adamantite ore." Lu Kuan remembered one thing and reminded Medu.
The Wood Throat Mine has entered the normal pace of excavation, with a total of 1,500 permanent guards and craftsmen, and a staggering amount of adamantite ore mined each week.
It is no longer realistic for these ores to be digested by Rune City alone, even if some of them are sold to the Golden King City, there is still a lot of leftover, which is stored in the warehouse and guarded by heavy soldiers.
Medu's heart moved, and he said, "You just said that you want to strengthen cooperation with Kailamo Khan, is this one of them?" ”
"Yes." Lu Kuan smiled.
The character of the two principals of Kailamohan has been tested by decades of game experience in the previous life, Lu Kuan is trustworthy, as long as the other party and Rune City are not hostile, Lu Kuan can rest assured and boldly do ore trading with Kailamohan.
Prior to this, Lu Kuan had already cooperated with the Elf Queen several times, including small-scale fine gold transactions, and this time he directly increased the trading volume of ore by four or five times, presumably the other party would be very happy.
"I'll start preparing when I get back." Meedu said immediately.
The old goblin knew that the stakes were high, and the matter of the Adamantite Vein had always been a secret that Rune City had done its best to keep, and the longer this secret was valid, the greater the benefit that Rune City would gain from it.
For example, the regular army of Runetera now, including the dwarven shield guards and various cavalry, seems to be just strong and strong, and only the enemies who have really fought know how strong the combat effectiveness of these main forces is.
A large part of this is the result of mixing Adamantite into the equipment for transformation.
The old goblin's mind was spinning rapidly, but his attention was quickly attracted by Lu Kuan's words, and at this time, Lu Kuan's gaze had already fallen into his field of vision, and on the slowly rotating panorama of Rune City, he explained the matters he thought of to the old goblin one by one.
……
Time flew by, and Lu Kuan and Medu stayed in the treasure house for nearly an hour, making a comprehensive plan for the funds for the next few months.
When the enclave, the mage tower camp and the Mithril mine are all completed, Lu Kuan's heart will be at least half of the solid - originally facing the invasion of the demon army, Lu Kuan's plan was to prepare as much as possible and take one step at a time.
Whether he can stand out in the world's anti-demon wave and win the highest world reward, Lu Kuan's confidence is not very strong.
But now with the Golem Factory in the enclave and the Mage Tower, Lu Kuan's confidence is at least fifty percent more.
A moment later, Lu Kuan came to the enclave, and when he was inspecting the construction progress of the castle, the message manager rang.
"I said Lao Lu, your family is crazy, isn't this?" Heavenly Eternal Darkness's familiar voice came, and there seemed to be resentment between the lines, but the tone was full of excitement.
"Who?" Lu Kuan's first reaction was Wu Xiaoxiao, but he had just spoken to the girl, and Wu Xiaoxiao was killing robbers with his teammates in the Night Fall Crater.
"Who else, Compass!"
Heaven Yongdian thought that Lu Kuan was pretending to be stupid, and said directly: "He broke the record of the limited-time challenge and got the gold medal reward, don't say you don't know." ”
Lu Kuan raised his eyebrows, and immediately called out the system glory list, and flipped through the first few system prompts, and sure enough, just a few minutes ago, the compass had just gotten the latest single-player limited-time challenge scene record in the game.
Not only that, but the time record is a full 5 minutes higher than the original!
What is the concept of 5 minutes, that's the time for a boss battle! If there are no accidents, the compass record will probably hang on the list for a long time.
