These Dragons had been dealing with Misha for a long time, so they knew this very well.
Roddy took out a bullet after he finished speaking. "To deal with enemies with this structure, I asked the research department to create 'armor-piercing bullets'. It's a bullet that can penetrate bone armor or armor and cause damage."
"And to deal with close-range, large-sized enemies, I suggest using this kind of explosive bullet …"
This was actually achieved by changing the shape and structure of the bullet to achieve different functions. The Dragons were a little restless after hearing this. Roddy looked at them and simply asked them to start shooting. Iscar did not hesitate to pick up the crystal cannon and began learning how to use it.
"The power of this thing is probably average … The barrel is so short, the shell is not big, and it's still solid."
Rubens was still a little against the Dragons using weapons. However, Iscar held the handle. "Let's try it first!"
The crystal cannon looked a little like a hand-held Gatling gun. Because of the strong recoil and heavy size, ordinary people could not even lift it up. From this point of view, only this group of Dragons could use it.
Each shell was about eight centimeters in diameter. There was an energy release array at the bottom of the crystal cannon barrel. The 20 crystals that transmitted the energy were under the handle. There was also a special heat dissipation array on the outside of the cannon barrel. It did not rely on natural air cooling to dissipate the heat. The design was actually optimized by Kardashian.
To put it bluntly, this was a semi-automatic hand-held cannon.
Iscar had never used such a thing before. After Roddy taught him how to aim, he found seven or eight kinds of magical beast shells prepared in advance and used them as targets. Iscar pulled the trigger. In the loud bang, his left arm that was holding the cannon shook violently. But because he was mentally prepared, this Red Dragon stood firmly in place.
A palm-sized hole appeared in the shell of a giant magical beast thirty meters away.
"Phew! Not bad, not bad. "
Iscar said as he looked down at the crystal cannon in his hand. The huge recoil gave him an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. "I want to fire a shot. How do I operate it?"
"Continue to pull the trigger."
Roddy pointed at his left hand. Iscar was stunned, and his expression changed slightly.
He continued to fire. After more than ten shells were fired, the shells of a few Magical Beasts in the distance had already been smashed into pieces, and the piles of straw behind the shells were smashed into pieces by the rolling bullets. This kind of power was not as great as the Dragons' spells, but it was the first time that everyone had seen the "Continuous Shooting" mode. Rubens walked over and picked up a fragment. "I can only say … it's not bad."
"No, if you really face a demon, the first shot to the head will be enough to kill them. Moreover, this thing can be fired almost infinitely …"
Essien quickly analyzed his conclusion. Roddy laughed and said, "This is where it's more convenient than using spells. The interval between attacks is very short, one shot per second. If you cast one spell per second, how long can it last?"
There was a theory of "Element Attenuation" in elemental spells. That is, if you cast too many spells in the same place, the surrounding elements will become thinner, and the power of the spells will be greatly reduced, even leading to the failure of casting.
After hearing this, Stika changed his view of the crystal cannon. He went over to look for the wreckage of the armor-piercing bullet and found that after the bullet penetrated the shell, it became an irregular metal block. He held the bullet and guessed, "If this thing was shot through the shell of the demon at the same speed and rolled through its body, I'm afraid its internal organs would be directly smashed, right?"
"As for the specific effect, we can try hunting magical beasts later."
Roddy said casually, and then changed Iscar's box of bullets to "Bloom Bullets". The head of this shell was flat, and it had a stronger stopping and rolling ability, but the effective range was shorter. Iscar aimed the crystal cannon at the magical beast skin that Roddy asked for. After thinking for a while, he put it down and said, "The one over there … Take off all the armor for us to use!"
He asked the guards around him to take off their superior armor. Iscar stretched the eight sets of breastplates with magic and put them together into two layers of fine steel armor, which was stronger than dragon scales.
He put the pile of armor in front of the pile of straw, moved 30 meters away, and pulled the trigger —
"Bang!" After just one shot, the armor and the stack of straw that was placed there flew back more than ten meters, and their shape was severely deformed …
In fact, this kind of crystal cannon was a large "gun". On Earth, it should be regarded as an "anti-material weapon" or something similar to an aircraft cannon, but with a larger caliber. And this kind of weapon was definitely a "harvesting artifact" for larger demon creatures.
Looking at the fragments in front of him, Essien raised his hand and said, "How about … we try to use a shield?"
"Yes, let's try a shield!"
Rubens was also shocked by the movement in front of him. He no longer dared to underestimate it, so he, Stika, and Essien took turns to condense various elemental shields in the open space, and then took turns to fire the cannon. Now that they had a certain level of scientific literacy, it did not take long for this attempt to become an "experiment". Several Dragons took out a pen and paper to make a chart, and began to record and compare the effects of the bombardment.
Seeing this scene, Roddy really did not know whether to laugh or cry, but he did feel that he had influenced the Dragons in this world. He looked at Rubens, who had always looked down on weapons, holding the crystal cannon and firing non-stop, but in his heart, he was thinking about the next topic.
Until hundreds of shells were fired, and all the targets in the shooting range were blown away, the group of Dragons finally stopped, unsatisfied. The green dragon Stika was obviously impressed by this kind of weapon, and came over to flatter, "Prime Minister, will you sell this thing to the Dragons?"
"If there is a need, of course, we can make it. Today, we only brought a trial version, to see how powerful it is. At present, it is only a solid metal shell, the cost and craftsmanship of the explosive shell is a little difficult, and the research and development is not completed yet. "
Roddy patted the body of the crystal cannon beside him, which was already a little overheated, and then found that Iscar and Essien wanted to say something, but did not. He asked, "If you have any questions, just ask."
"Prime Minister, before this, I thought that that kind of cannon could hurt the Dragons was already scary enough. But now, a crystal cannon of this size can actually penetrate our magic shield … How did this happen? "
"The laws of physics."
Roddy directly threw out the concepts of "conservation of momentum" and "pressure". The Dragons had already learned part of it before, and at this time, they immediately understood the principle. But after that, they did not ask the question of whether this thing would be sold to the Dragons again — none of them were fools, and the purpose of Roddy taking this thing out was probably not just to show them a "new weapon."
The deeper meaning behind this was to let the Dragons understand the extent of the power that Roddy had mastered.
Just like what Roddy said, humans and Dragons were, after all, two different races, and the cooperation between them must be built on the respect and fear of the other party's overall strength.
After Queo experienced the power of the bombardment and the cannon, he no longer mentioned going against Roddy. And now, after this group of young Dragons tested the crystal cannon, the little sense of superiority they had towards humans in their hearts was now completely gone.
This kind of crystal cannon could not be used by ordinary people, but the elite soldiers could be selected to be powerful enough. If it was the barbarian soldiers, they could easily arm an entire company — imagine if a company of soldiers had this kind of weapon, which Dragons would not be afraid of it?
This was the effect that Roddy wanted: when the damage of the weapon itself reached a certain level, it would form a kind of ideological deterrence. Was the peace that "nuclear deterrence" brought peace? It was just that everyone had a big stick in their hands, and they were afraid of each other, so they did not fight.
After disassembling the crystal cannon and putting it away, a few giant dragons proposed a few amendments. After Roddy carefully took a piece of paper and jotted them down, this "leisure activity" seemed to be coming to an end.
"Phew, we have to go back to face the formula again."
Rubens looked very depressed, and the others were obviously separated from the curiosity and excitement of testing the crystal cannon. Kardashian followed beside them and knew their mentality very well, so she said, "We have been studying for so long, shouldn't we take some time to rest and relax?"
"Sure, sure!"
Stika immediately responded, but the other three were a little silent. It was not that they did not want to rest, but they felt that if their optimistic plan was overturned, they would not be able to live with it.
Roddy glanced at Kardashian and immediately gave them a way out. "As I said, no matter what we do, we should strike a balance between work and rest — have you heard of 'team building'?"
"What do you mean? Building a house? "
Iscar raised his eyebrows. Roddy waved his hand. "It's similar. In fact, it means that our small team will go out and find some other ways to relax. Everyone will take a few days together, and improve our relationship outside of the daily research. This is also to improve our efficiency in the future … I think Hercino Magic Tower is a good place, and now it is open to all Dragons at certain times. "
"Really?!"
Black Dragon Herrlöw Rubens had been fascinated by the various ways of entertainment in Hercino Magic Tower for a long time, and suddenly exclaimed in surprise. The others also showed an expectant look, but they did not know that all his previous foreshadowing was for this seemingly casual sentence at this moment. "How can this be fake? I happen to have some things to do there. If you all agree, let's go for a week and have a good rest. "
"The country's Prime Minister is flying over to do something personally? Is it to report something to the King alone? "
Kardashian rolled her eyes. The other Dragons, of course, knew the relationship between Roddy and Sally, and immediately showed an "I understand, I understand" look. "The Prime Minister has something to do, of course we have to hurry! We can leave anytime! "
