Chapter 16: Calm down and prolong life
An hour later, when it was confirmed that the two mechanical black birds on the other side of the farm would never leave the surrounding area, Tang Yizhou learned that it had really become their home, and maybe there was still no finished metal.
So, he can test the shot with confidence.
He touched the back of a big tree, skillfully rolled the crossbow No. 2 skillfully and put the crossbow arrows. Tang Yizhou half-kneeled, and the No. 2 crossbow of more than 70 kilograms was held without moving.
Instead of busy launching, he aimed at the tree twenty meters ahead through the mountain. The legendary three points formed a line, and he still understood it slightly.
Three minutes later, seeing that the power in the attribute column had decreased by half a square, Tang Yizhou lowered the No. 2 crossbow and rubbed his arms while taking a deep breath.
He didn't know how the archer was made, and he had no secrets, but he heard from the assassin of the Holy Temple, Master Xunleilu, that those who are calm in major events can prolong their lives!
Tang Yizhou has always been very despised by his courage. He could make do with it before traveling through time. Now that time traveling through time is coming to this end, if he still gets scared out of white-haired sweat at any time, and is scared by the ghost of the farm lady at any time, that would be inappropriate.
Therefore, to calm down and prolong life, we must start from three points to one line.
After a few minutes of rest, Tang Yizhou continued to pick up the No. 2 crossbow, locked the target steadily, and at the same time tried to relax and focus on these three points and one line.
After three minutes, when the power is reduced by half, you will rest.
It continued until his power was only four squares. When he aimed for the last time, he no longer had the initial anxiety in his heart, as if everything was left with nature between breathing.
Only then did he pull the trigger without warning...
With a "swish!"
Then there was a "bang" sound, and the sound of the tree trunk being burst and shot through, a slight sound.
But Tang Yizhou looked calm and did not even look at the results. Instead, he quickly sat down, put the crossbow arrows on his back, got up, picked up the crossbow number two and glanced at the target just now.
"Bang!"
After spitting out a syllable from his mouth, Tang Yizhou smiled with satisfaction. The arrow just now was another five ring, and the fifth ring within twenty meters of the distance was really gratifying.
He took out his telescope and observed the direction of the farm. He found that there was no movement. Then he stood up and checked the power of the arrow.
The diameter of the tree was about thirty centimeters, but the steel bar crossbow arrow had been completely cut through, and several violent cracks were raised on the outside of the tree trunk, leaving only a dozen centimeters at the tail end of the crossbow arrow.
Such power is at least twice as powerful as crossbow No. 1.
However, the accuracy is still a little worse. After all, it is only twenty meters. With good light and long-term aiming, it can only shoot the fifth ring. This is not a problem with Tang Yizhou's own skills, but a problem with crossbow No. 2 or a crossbow arrow. This requires him to think slowly, slowly understand, and correct it bit by bit.
Using the cutting skill to retrieve the crossbow arrow, Tang Yizhou quickly cleared the traces, returned to the east of the cornfield, collected a wave of power, cut a corner of steel, and then continued to go to the grove to practice three points and one line, but only every five grids of power was consumed, would you carefully shoot an arrow.
In one morning, he cut four-angle steel blocks and tested three rounds. By noon, after transferring the generator set to the southwest corner of the cornfield, he also accumulated the power to fully melt the crossbow of the No. 3 crossbow.
With the previous experience of crossbow No. 2, the smelting and casting process was quite smooth, but there was no major improvement, because with Tang Yizhou's knowledge reserve, it is quite rare to be able to find this level, and in the future, we can only rely on experience to improve it a little bit.
Or wait to open the second layer of permissions of the mechanical key to see what mechanical creation drawings can make him realize overnight?
After casting the crossbow machine, Tang Yizhou looked at the sky and was not sure whether there would be rain in the afternoon, because there were both suns and cotton-like clouds in the sky, but no matter what, he would not panic. After all, he already had a little capital to survive in this world.
——
In the evening, the sunset was like fire, and clouds covered half of the sky.
The rain that had been brewing for an afternoon was not falling, but it brought good signs.
"The morning glow doesn't go out, the sunset travels thousands of miles, which is great!"
Holding the newly created No. 3 crossbow, Tang Yizhou in the green gauze tent could not hide his joy.
This is the feeling of harvest. Even though hundreds of grids of electricity were consumed continuously for crossbow No. 3, his real-time power was still at the highest point at this moment.
Similarly, Tang Yizhou also began to formulate the next plan.
Always hiding in the cornfield is not a long-term solution. He either attacks the farm and grabs his own safe house from the mechanical black bird, or sneaks away in the dark and finds another safe place.
But after he thought about it repeatedly, he believed that neither of these plans were perfect.
First of all, attacking the farm is not very reliable. These mechanical black birds dare to confront the mechanical apes head-on. The mechanical wings, mechanical torso can withstand bullets, sharp claws, and sharp bird beaks can all bring him a fatal blow, and the opponent has air superiority.
So it is impossible to wipe out the other side completely.
Secondly, it is not appropriate to just sneak away like this.
Because there are mechanical apes and mechanical black birds here, how can you know there are no other mechanical monsters in other places?
At least he had figured out the movement rules of these two enemies here. As long as he avoided it, he would not have any worries about his life. He rashly went on the road and wandered aimlessly, but he was afraid that he would not respect his own head.
"But just being so dependent is not a solution!"
In the red clouds of the sky, Tang Yizhou fell into deep thought.
After nightfall, his figure appeared again next to the small river in the east and continued to dig the mud back because he came up with another compromise, that is, why not create some armor and shields for himself?
He doesn't have the technology for the whole body armor for the time being, and he can't even build a helmet, but living people can't let their urine suffocate to death?
After carefully studying and recalling the attack methods of mechanical black birds when attacking mechanical apes, Tang Yizhou came to a conclusion that mechanical black birds like to greet them.
Chest, shoulders, head.
This is related to the movement trajectory they have to dive from the sky. For example, if a mechanical black bird swoops from the sky and attacks Tang Yizhou's toes, do you believe it can be cut over with an axe?
"So no matter how mechanized or viral they become, the things in their bones will not change. Attacking on three routes can not only cause a lot of damage to the enemy, but also interfere with the enemy's sight and keep the enemy busy with response. This is biological instinct, so--"
Tang Yizhou wrote down several lines of bird attack behavior patterns on the notebook, and then began to draw sketches.
First of all, the breastplate is the breastplate, which only requires two steel plates to protect the front chest and back. Both can be connected with canvas straps, and the holes are reserved when casting.
Connect up and down, and left and right, so as to maximize defense, it will not only not affect activity and flexibility.
Then there is the arm armor, which is even simpler. First, make a semicircular mold, then cast it into a semicircular guard plate, and also reserve holes and tie them together with cloth strips. You can also stuff some cloth strips inside to prevent wear of the skin and cause discomfort.
With two arms, eight semicircular guard plates can be cast, and they can be combined into four arm armors.
Finally, there is the helmet, which is the most difficult technology, but if you also use the semicircular casting method, it is not impossible to do it.
Of course, the helmet still cannot protect the entire head, so it has to create a shield...
The most important thing is that he still has to practice archery hard and strive to achieve a goal of 10 shots within 20 meters.
