Chapter 261
Although the catapult and the three-bow bed crossbow are both heavy siege equipment, their characteristics are completely different. The bed crossbow has a long range and strong sniping ability, and can kill the enemy leader from a thousand meters away.
The attack distance of a catapult is generally only about 70-100 meters, but its destructive power is stronger and its attack range is very large, making it most suitable for dealing with that kind of group battle.
Whether it is dealing with attacks by beasts, dead animals, or players attacking in groups, it can have an overwhelming effect.
Of course, if it is a heavy weapon, what Lu Yan wants more is a weapon called [Flying Thunder Cannon]. This weapon originated from the Chinese Liberation War. It also has a more famous name - Heartless gun!
The caliber of this weapon is astonishing, and it is simple to manufacture. It only requires an empty gasoline barrel and an explosive package. Once launched, the concussive impact produced by the huge explosive package is enough to destroy the bunker, and both men and horses will be destroyed. blown away.
Moreover, this kind of cannon mainly uses impact force to kill the enemy. No matter how thick the body armor is, it cannot withstand its damage. According to historical records, many people who died under this kind of heartless cannon did not have any wounds on their bodies. It was just bleeding from the seven orifices, and he died because his internal organs were shattered alive by the impact!
This kind of astonishingly powerful earthen cannon is naturally a very powerful killing weapon, but Lu Yan currently does not have the ability to manufacture it on a large scale, at least within three days.
Because this kind of weapon requires a large amount of gunpowder, and although Lu Yan occupies the camp and owns the saltpeter mine, he is only one person now and cannot mine saltpeter in large quantities and refine the gunpowder needed to make heartless cannons.
Moreover, storing gunpowder requires an extremely dry and sealed space. Today's campsites do not have such conditions. Only after the campsite is fully constructed can Lu Yan put this matter on the agenda.
However, according to Lu Yan's observation, in the near future, bed crossbows and catapults are enough to withstand any disasters and monsters that have appeared in the wilderness. Even if the giant ape that he and He Chuan once dealt with appears, the bed crossbow will not be able to withstand any disasters and monsters that have appeared in the wilderness. Definitely be able to kill it!
And lv2 mutant beasts like the devil black ape...
Lu Yan speculated that there would not be many such high-level mutant beasts in the short term. At least there would not be similar mutant beasts in this mountain forest. The reason is very simple. The pig-headed tribe has been living here for a long time. Destroyed, this means that there are no stronger monsters in the forest.
Judging from the progress of a game, it should still be considered a novice testing period. The game official will not release too many bosses that are so abnormal that players cannot fight against them!
Catapults and bed crossbows,
It is enough to dominate in this period.
Just do it, Lu Yan opens the doomsday survival system. Catapults and bed crossbows are a type of cold weapons. They are also among the item options that can be manufactured with a proficiency of 1, but the amount of materials and survival point consumption required to make them are But it is much higher than the flintlock.
Lu Yan could understand this. After all, this was heavy equipment, and its lethality was far more powerful than flintlock guns, hand crossbows, and the like.
His eyes fell on the manufacturing lists of the two killer weapons, and the entire row of information came into view.
