Chapter 2973 New Weapons
While lifting the cloth covering the sword, Karl made a 'please' gesture.
Luo Ji didn't think much about it, and just picked up the sword from the tray.
The battle knife, attached to the scabbard, was surprisingly light when it was started.
Luo Ji clenched the handle of the knife slightly, and slowly pulled out a blade, which actually brought bursts of knife sounds.
At the moment when the sword was completely unsheathed, the eyes of everyone in the hall were attracted by this beautiful sword.
This blade as thin as a cicada's wing is the craftsmanship of the dwarf craftsman that Luo Ji is extremely familiar with, and the densely packed elf incantations engraved on it are from the hand of the elf craftsman.
The material of this blade body is clearly the wind element alloy.
Logically speaking, this entire blade should have a azure color.
But I don't know why, on the blade of this sky blue, there is a silver light that is constantly intertwined...
"Karl, could it be that Mithril was incorporated into this sword during the forging process?"
Luo Ji slowly expressed his guess.
In this regard, Carl directly stated that...
"Yes, Your Majesty, after confirming the properties of elemental alloy and mithril steel, we came up with an idea, what would happen if mithril was directly incorporated into the forging process of elemental alloy?"
Carl, who said this, had a bit of excitement in his tone.
"And if you do this, the difficulty of forging an entire alloy will double as the material increases, but the dwarf craftsmen are completely able to do this, and it turns out that we have indeed succeeded!"
Hearing this, Luo Ji couldn't help but laugh.
Indeed, the craftsmen of the dwarves like this kind of challenging work the most.
It takes a lot of time to smelt a piece of elemental alloy, and at the same time, it is very difficult to forge, which is an extreme test of the forging skills of a dwarf craftsman.
Under this premise, adding Mithril, the difficulty was suddenly raised to a new level.
"Then, how does this second-order weapon with Mithril added compare to the original third-order weapon?"
In the case of Mithril, looking at Karl's excited look, the effect of this second-order weapon should be significantly higher than the original second-order weapon.
That being the case, it would be meaningless to compare it with Tier 2 weapons, so Luo Ji directly asked him how he compared with Tier 3 weapons.
Faced with this question, Carl's mood calmed down a little.
"In terms of power, there is definitely no way to compare it with third-order weapons, but there is also a small improvement, about 10 to 15 percent stronger than the original second-order weapons. In fact, in the integration After Mithril, the biggest change is that the weapon's utilization of elemental power has become higher, at least 30% higher, and the person holding this elemental weapon can in a battle, Cast more enhancement spells or additional attack spells."
Luo Ji was still very satisfied with this result.
The number of spells used by an elemental weapon is increased, which for a unit equipped with elemental equipment can significantly improve their combat effectiveness and sustained combat capability.
At the same time, this new alloy, after being smelted, is not an elemental weapon that can only be used to forge individual soldiers.
It is also completely possible to use it to make large-scale magic equipment such as air magic warships and element magic guns.
So for Wanjie civilization, this new alloy is of great significance.
With that in mind, Luo Ji issued an order on the spot, ordering the Volcano Forge to start forging this new type of alloy with all their might.
In order to distinguish this new alloy from the old elemental alloy, Luo Ji decided to name this new alloy Mithril alloy.
At the same time, looking at Carl who was eager to try, Luo Ji also directly allowed Carl and the others to test the starlight crystals, and send the report to him as soon as possible after the results were obtained.
Carl, who got permission, was full of excitement. After leaving the palace, he rushed back to the elf workshop as quickly as possible.
A few years passed, and the report of Starlight Crystal was officially delivered to Luo Ji's eyes.
This is actually nothing to say, because Carl has basically confirmed before, this star crystal is an upgraded version of star sand.
The strengthening effect of an elemental equipment is stronger than that of star sand.
To put it bluntly, it's that simple.
Of course, what Luo Ji cared about was not only this, but how many Starlight Crystals it would take to forge a piece of elemental equipment.
However, there is a problem with this question, and it is not clear at all.
Take elemental weapons as an example, a dagger and a big sword, which require the same materials, can they be the same?
So Carl, who had undergone many tests, told Luo Ji clearly in his report that, on the premise that the effect of the star crystal would not be weakened, a single star crystal could smelt up to 100 kilograms of mithril alloy or elemental alloy.
According to this standard, one ton is two thousand catties. If Luo Ji needs to smelt one ton of alloys, then he needs twenty star crystals? !
This amount of alloy sounds like a lot, but ah, let's not talk about the air magic warship, let's just say that the fourth-order element magic gun is good, a fourth-order element magic gun has a full weight of thirteen A ton weighs 26,000 catties.
If Luo Ji were to use starlight alloy to make a fourth-order elemental magic gun, then one would need 260 starlight crystals.
And this starlight crystal, currently produced a year, less than five.
Sometimes if you are lucky, you may only have two or three.
According to this rhythm, it would take fifty or sixty years to save the materials for an elemental magic gun.
This made Luo Ji clearly realize that starlight crystals are not suitable for large equipment, at least there is no way for Luo Ji to do it at the moment.
As for before that, let him use star sand for large equipment.
And this starlight crystal, depending on the situation, should only be able to build some equipment for some top warriors, and even, it is very difficult to arm hundreds of ace troops.
Of course, judging from the current situation alone, Luo Ji has such an idea right now.
Considering Carl and the others, due to the continuous experimentation in the past few years, a lot of starlight crystals were lost during the period.
In this way, Luo Ji's hands now have not collected a few Starlight Crystals at all.
For the official production and equipment, we should wait for twenty or thirty years before he collects a batch of starlight crystals.
In the current situation, the focus of his magic equipment is still on the replacement of the old version of the elemental alloy and the new version of the mithril alloy.
Just by completing this wave of replacements, for their individual units of Myriad Realms Civilization, the entire improvement in combat effectiveness is already very obvious.
