Chapter 231: Tenacious Beetle
"Although our normal shells have been replaced with hard-shell ricochets, they really don't work very well on these bugs that have a hard shell. The bald father looked ahead and thought silently.
Unless you are positively focused, it will not be very effective to deal with these bugs. When bouncing once or twice, the beetles that are hit will be seriously injured, but these bugs still insist on moving forward, and they are not afraid to die. As if there was no pain at all, the goal of all the beetles was to tear their enemies apart and eat them.
The bald old man looked in the other direction, and the green cannonballs were fired from that place. The cannonball rose into the air for a moment, slammed into the swarm of beetles, and then shattered completely.
A large amount of thick green acid splattered out, completely enveloping a large area of beetles.
The beetle's body immediately made a "bang" sound, and a large number of white eyes kept rising. The beetle's hard shell was corroding at a rate that was visible to the naked eye, but the beetle still felt as if it didn't feel anything.
With the acid, go on, completely ignoring the damage of the acid. A beetle's eye was hit by acid and destroyed in a matter of moments. The beetle couldn't see anything, so it went berserk and attacked indiscriminately.
All the beetles in the vicinity, or whatever else they wanted, became the target of the beetle. The other beetles that were attacked also showed no weakness and bit them fiercely. This bite happened to bite on the beetle's acid, and his mouthparts were also quickly corroded, and it didn't take long for them to break.
Without its huge mouthparts, the beetle can only attack with its knife-like limbs. But this physical attack is not very effective for the same kind, and soon a swarm of bugs will become a ball of bugs.
At this time, the first insects rushed forward with the acid, and the acid finally corroded and penetrated the hard shell on the body. A large amount of acid entered the body, and the beetle could not act as if nothing had happened.
As a beetle screamed like a bellows, more and more beetles joined the ranks. The beetle rolled on the ground, trying to relieve the pain in its body, but could not alleviate it. The more you move, the larger the area of acid in your body and the more intense the pain you cause.
Finally, the acid corroded the beetle's vital organs. The beetle's body stopped abruptly, and then lost its breath.
"It's taken too long, it's not worth it. If these beetles are given enough time, they can fight with acid for a while, and they will be more lethal with acid. Moreover, the sputtering range of the acid is too small. ”
Each shell could only cover a part of the area, and in most places, small droplets of acid were splattered. This bit of acid is very lethal to humans and other creatures.
But for the beetle, unless it hits the vital point, it has no effect at all, and a small amount of acid can corrode the hard shell of the beetle into a big pit, but that's it, the acid has lost its effect here. Speaking of which, the corrosive ability of this acid is already very strong, but who made the other party's hard shell too thick.
"Let's take a look at the oil bombs. The bald dad looked at the fire oil bomb scene on the other side. The oil bomb had already been hit, and a large amount of oil was splashed in a larger range, and all the beetles over there had a layer of oil on their bodies.
But like acid bombs, there is a limit to the amount of fire oil after all, and many beetles don't have a lot of fire oil.
"Ignition. The bald old man said to the people over there. The method of ignition has long been thought of.
A few soldiers took out a ball tightly wound with velvet and smeared it with a little oil and lit it. As soon as the flame ignited, they stuffed it into the pea cannon they carried with them.
Because of the small space inside, the flame was not extinguished, but it did not burn much. A few soldiers roughly took aim, then fired the pea cannon. When velvet is in mid-air, the spark is getting bigger and bigger.
When the velvet fell into the oil area, a large area of flame burst into flames. The whole ground was turned into a sea of fire. Bugs are bugs, and they are born with a fear of fire.
After the flames burned, the bugs went crazy. It's still light to roll on the ground, and many bugs are attacking each other, completely ignoring everything else. The deterrent power of this thing is much more powerful than acid. The bald dad himself didn't expect that the effect of this fire oil bomb was much better than that of the acid bomb.
"It's really good, but it's a pity that it's still a lot of waste, and we don't have many fire oil bombs. And the way of igniting the fire is too troublesome, if the enemy is wise and prepared, I am afraid it will be difficult to ignite. ”
The bald father took out a small notebook and quickly recorded it, these are all requested by the lord. The shortcomings and advantages of any weapon should be recorded, and eventually they should be summarized, and even some solutions should be considered and handed over to Chinan.
"Butler, do we still want to continue experimenting? The soldier next to him spoke. In just a few rounds of attacks, nearly half of the bugs on the opposite side had been killed, although they had consumed a lot of shells. But this kind of power, this kind of effect, is even more amazing than the combat power of other fortress mages that burst out.
The bald father nodded: "Forget about grape bullets, that thing is too weak, and the effect of solid bullets on this thing is not good." Some time ago, didn't the lord send an experimental cannonball, take it and try it. ”
Previously, Chi Nan found a poison for beetles, which did not have much effect on other creatures, and could only make people uncomfortable. But for insects, the lethality is very strong.
Chi Nan didn't know how effective this kind of cannonball was, so he just made some cannonball tree seeds and sent them over. For such a long time, a lot of such targeted shells have also piled up. Isn't this a good opportunity to experiment these days? "But the butler, that kind of shell has not been tested, what if it fails. ”
The bald father waved his hand: "How come, even if it fails, it doesn't matter, can those beetles still attack." Well, prepare other shells first, and if it really fails, then the other shells will attack me. ”
There are a lot of cannons in this giant wood city, and it is no problem to use only some of them for testing. Although the soldier was a little entangled, he quickly left the place to convey the bald father's order. Soon, special shells were ready in place.
