Chapter 264 Concentration of Red Sand Steel: Blood Cloud Steel
The new kerosene bomb was successfully tested, causing a cheer. This kerosene bomb is different from the beetle poison bomb. Although the beetle poison bomb has a large range, it is only used to deal with those beetles, not people.
Although the acid bomb is also very powerful, the effect is a little worse after all. It does not directly hit the opponent, so the effect is not good. But the kerosene bomb is different. This thing shoots out flames, which has a very good effect against any target. Even for siege warfare, it is very useful. Without siege, the city can be burned to ashes with artillery shells.
"Remember, this kind of kerosene bomb, including our previous acid bombs and previous kerosene bombs, are not for sale and cannot be sold to others." These things are too lethal.
Chi Nan doesn't want these things to be aimed at his people one day. He is not afraid. As long as he is there, these things can stop working at any time and make the weapons ineffective.
But if he is not there, these weapons have no thoughts. They don't know to hold back when facing the people of Hongshaling. At that time, it would be unfair if his army died in the hands of his own weapons.
Chi Nan set his sights on a soldier who had just stood next to him. The soldier was holding a piece of blood-red metal in his hand. "Did you bring the stuff? This is it." The soldier nodded quickly. This is not an ordinary metal. This is what Chi Nan produced by strengthening the iron bark tree with his power that had just been upgraded to bronze level before he left.
This strengthened iron bark tree absorbs ordinary iron ore or red sand in the soil, and the product is similar to red sand steel, which is nothing special. Before leaving, Chi Nan let the new iron bark tree absorb red sand steel.
This new iron bark tree has already reached the level of bronze-level plants. Even Chi Nan himself did not expect that he could strengthen it to this level. It's just that there is no time, so it can only be put aside temporarily.
Before, Chi Nan had asked the soldiers to bring back the new metal, and also brought back a test report.
"This is the new metal, the hardness is far beyond what it could be compared with before. After our test, the hardness of this piece of metal should have exceeded the general magic metal, and it can be directly made into magic weapons."
Chi Nan nodded gently. There are two types of magic weapons. One is made of only magic metal materials. This can be said to be a waste of materials, but it is still a magic weapon after all.
The other type, whether it is ordinary materials or magic materials, requires the mage to carve runes and enchantment procedures to make it. This kind of magic weapon gives full play to the advantages of the material itself. But the effect depends on the material and the ability of the mage or alchemist.
There is no alchemist in the territory, so it can only rely on materials. Anyway, there are plenty of metals in my territory.
"It seems that the production speed is not very fast. Let's do this. In the future, only those who have reached the black iron level in the territory can use this emerging metal to make weapons and armor, but it seems that there will be a queue. Forget it, let's do this for now."
"On average, five parts of red sand steel can produce one part. The greatest ability of the new iron tree is to compress red sand steel and remove the dross and keep the essence. Hey, did you add the pattern on it?" Chi Nan suddenly found that there was a layer of strange patterns on the metal, which looked a bit like clouds in the sky.
The soldier shook his head hurriedly: "No, this kind of metal will have such a pattern after it is formed. And after it is made into a weapon, no matter how it is hammered, this pattern will not disappear, but will change."
"Changed? The shape is similar to the clouds in the sky, and even the changes are the same as the ever-changing clouds. The color of this new red sand steel does not seem to be ordinary red, but blood. So, this metal will be named Blood Cloud Steel in the future." As soon as Chi Nan's words came out, someone next to him recorded it, and the new metal was named successfully.
Chi Nan ignored it and said directly: "Go and make a suitable set of armor and weapons for others, starting with the guards. But the long sword is not needed for the time being, I have to design a new weapon first."
After thinking about it, Chi Nan suddenly said: "By the way, how is the elasticity of this metal."
The soldier hurriedly said: "The elasticity seems to be very good, very tough." The soldier was not very clear.
"Then what about making a bow and arrow, how is the effect." This is the real reason why Chi Nan asked about the elasticity.
The soldier looked embarrassed, and he also knew about this matter. A leg next to him suddenly said, "We have already made and tested it when it was first made, but this kind of longbow cannot be pulled by ordinary people, even black iron level warriors. I am afraid that only bronze level warriors can use it freely."
"Is that so? Then this kind of metal longbow can only be used as a high-level weapon. Unfortunately, there is no bronze level in the territory except me now."
Thinking of this, Chi Nan said, "Then leave the longbow to me. In addition, make arrowheads with ordinary blood cloud steel and hardwood arrow shafts for me. Make a batch of arrows. I will practice well after a while."
Chi Nan's own strength is very strong. Even warriors of the same level may not be able to compare with him. The difference between him and the warrior is his own fighting spirit. Without fighting spirit, he can only rely on his own physical strength, and his explosiveness is completely inferior to that of the opponent. When he was at the black iron level, he could still rely on skills to fight against the black iron warrior.
But when he reached the level of "Please report", Chi Nan knew that he was no match for the warriors in close combat. Because the bronze-level warriors themselves have stronger fighting spirit, and can also release it from a long distance, which is not comparable to his strength.
But arrows are different. Even bronze-level warriors cannot attach their fighting spirit to arrows. As long as he trains well, he can be a powerful fighting force without spells.
There is no one else except Chi Nan who can use high-level arrows to train like himself. One leg hurriedly gave orders, and it won't be long before the blacksmith shop will start working overtime.
Not only them, but also the carpenters. Those hardwoods are not something that ordinary people can handle. It was not easy to use red sand steel tools to handle hardwood in the past. Chi Nan thought about it and allowed those craftsmen to use tools made of blood cloud steel to work. If you want to do your work well, you must first sharpen your tools. Chi Nan still understands this principle.
Regardless of the specific distribution of blood cloud steel, Chi Nan began to study pea cannons.
