Chapter 98

Nord's choice is to promote five Amun warriors and five Amun senior hunters. Sure enough, Nord is a senior believer of balanced sect. Although such a choice, the combat effectiveness must not be the strongest, but it must be the most balanced, and the balance lies between all things.

Of course, this balance does not refer to the balance of sects. If this combination is selected, the troops can adapt to various situations. They will not be kite flying due to lack of long-range output, nor will they be slaughtered due to lack of close combat ability.

Therefore, now Nord's small-scale troops must have more comprehensive capabilities, and will not make the mountain knife or Bauhinia bow useless. Long range and close combat can be matched with each other to better output. Nord believes that this is more effective.

Then to Nord's surprise, Lehman and Marco didn't upgrade, but they were not far from the experience of upgrading. However, old Moore quietly upgraded again, which made Nord feel a lot of emotion. He has the lowest sense of existence among the three, but the speed of upgrading is not inferior to Lehman.

[Name: Moore]

[Occupation: yamong senior Hunter Lv2 (4002000)]

[attribute: strength 10 (14) agility 11 (16) intelligence 10 (12) charm 7 (8)]

[weapon proficiency: one handed weapon 128 (140) bow and arrow 187 (200)]

[Name: Lehman]

[Occupation: Amun warrior Lv2 (18002000)]

……

[Name: Marco]

[Occupation: Amun warrior LV1 (6001000)]

……

In fact, what Nord can't believe is that Cindy, a little bobcat, has also upgraded in troubled waters, which makes Nord smile bitterly. Obviously, it didn't participate in the battle at all, and it has upgraded purely by rubbing experience. Nord can't help feeling that people are not as good as cats.

[Name: Cindy]

[Occupation: SM Lv2 (0200)]

[attribute: strength 3 (7) agility 4 (10) intelligence 3 (6) charm 4 (9)]

Nothing is better than nothing. Although Cindy's attributes have been improved a lot, it doesn't work. Nord doesn't intend to let Cindy participate in the battle. These increased attributes might as well be added to intelligence. Nord can see if intelligence can make animals more human.

Nord suddenly remembered that at the end of the battle, the system seemed to reward Nord with 10 crossbows. Soon, Nord took out a crossbow from the item space of the system.

The whole crossbow is about forty or fifty centimeters long. The crossbow arm is about as long as the previous hunting bow, that is, half of the current Bauhinia bow. The overall shape is very relaxed and looks powerful.

The operation of the crossbow is also very simple. As long as you learn to string and pull the trigger, an adult can quickly master it. Nord can't wait to leave the study and try its power in the open space behind the manor.

Each crossbow system is only equipped with ten crossbows and arrows, but Nord doesn't care about these things, because crossbows and arrows, like arrows used for bows and arrows, have no technical content. He only says that the requirements for workmanship are very strict. Ordinary apprentices can start making them soon. They can strictly control the quality and how many arrows they want, Because the most important thing in the Amun mountains is wood.

Nord stood in the shooting range of the training ground, standing 100 meters away from the target, holding a crossbow in his right hand, holding it gently in his left hand, squinting one eye gently, pointing his center at the target, three points and one line, and gently pulling the trigger with his index finger. With a bang, the bow string vibrated crisp, and the crossbow arrow was fired.

To Nord's embarrassment, he missed the target. A few days ago, it seemed that old Moore's performance made Nord itch. He had to challenge 100 meters beyond his capacity. Nord, who had never played crossbow, undoubtedly missed the target.

But Nord approached and wanted to see how far he was biased. As a result, he found the trace of the crossbow arrow on the big tree 100 meters away from the wooden target.

Taking into account the distance from Nord to the target, nearly 200 steps, the crossbow arrow can still be inserted into the branches of the tree. Nord tried hard to pull the crossbow arrow down. Looking at the hole in the tree, it is about half a finger deep. If it is shot at a person at close range, even wearing a lock armour will not be useful.

Nord tried back and forth several times and found that the crossbow was really strong, but the disadvantage was also very obvious. That was, the firing speed was too slow. There were about ten breaths from plucking the string to loading the crossbow arrow. An experienced Archer could shoot at least five arrows during this time, but there was one place where the crossbow could not be replaced by bow and arrow, which was good at armor breaking ability.

Archers have great lethality against enemies without armor or wearing leather armor, but once the enemy wears iron armor, archers have nothing to do. The power of bows and arrows is difficult to break through iron armor, unless elite archers can find the key that the enemy does not have protective armor.

However, crossbow has no such concerns. Within dozens of steps, no matter what armor you wear, coupled with a specific armor piercing arrow, you can easily damage the enemy protected by armor.

Moreover, Nord knew that Hansen was preparing to build a conical arrow recently, mainly to match the power of the Bauhinia bow. Once, when Fusen and Hansen were discussing the arrow problem, the carpenter Fusen inadvertently said a word, which completely annoyed Hansen. What the inside and outside mean is that the current arrows seriously dragged down the power of the bow and arrow.

Even Hansen, who is quite docile, is furious when he hears such words. With Hansen's strong body, the people next to him doubt that he is not strong. Can Fusen resist Hansen's iron fist.

But Hansen, the blacksmith, finally endured it and left the carpenter's workshop with a cold look at Fusen, the carpenter. The clay figurine was still angry. He hated to be questioned about his specialty. They were all systematically arranged masters. Everyone had his own pride in his heart, but he didn't show it like Fusen, the carpenter. Cone arrow, Of course blacksmith Hansen can do it.

It may be that the speaker was careless and the listener was intentional. The words of carpenter Fusen may have inadvertently offended blacksmith Hansen. At that time, Fusen himself regretted it, but he was proud that Hansen left the carpenter's workshop angrily before he could apologize.

But the next day, Hansen the blacksmith came to the carpenter's workshop to show him the cone arrow he made. He wanted to apologize to him. I don't know why, he suddenly said, what's the use of making your own, at least it should be able to produce on a large scale. In a word, Hansen was half angry.

However, Hansen himself knows that it is really difficult for those apprentices to make conical arrows. After Hansen went back, he has been teaching them how to make conical arrows. Although this thing is very small, it still has a certain technical content. As long as the apprentices learn to hit conical arrows, it is generally civil products.

Abbott didn't stop the competition between them, nor did Nord care much. As long as he didn't hurt his harmony, there was no problem. In fact, the relationship between the masters assigned by the system was very good, such as the relationship between carpenter Fusen and blacksmith Hansen. They often discussed problems together. Even many tools of carpenter Fusen were built by Hansen.
