Chapter 85 Development of Bows and Arrows

Luo Ji, who was determined to clean up the group of hyenas, did what he said, and for the next few days, he spent most of the time in the Ordnance Department.

Although he doesn't have the talent of being an 'arms master', his mind as a modern man is his greatest advantage. Many little foxes are a little bit confused about the structure of parts and problems, and Luo Ji often only needs one sentence to solve them. It made her suddenly enlightened, and in the past few days, the little fox's loyalty to him has skyrocketed, and the research and development speed of bows and arrows and leather armor has also increased significantly.

A few days later, Luo Ji was in a delicate mood with the longbow that he had just completed. In the past few days, the failed items had been piled up into a hill in the corner of the tent of the Ordnance Department. When the bow was completed, he was very excited, and when the second one was completed, he was also very excited. However, this has been done nearly a hundred times, and now all he has left in his mind is the subtlety and complexity, and there may be a trace of apprehension.

"Let's go, try it outside the camp!" With a heavy sigh, Luo Ji stood up with the longbow and walked outside. Even the tribesmen in the camp were already used to the way they had come these days. In and out, and then continue to do their own work.

Experimenting with the effect of the weapon, this is probably the only time the little fox will leave the Ordnance Department's tent except for eating and sleeping. Although she has experienced nearly a hundred failures, she is not discouraged, holding the repaired card in her hand. After modifying and modifying the design of the bow and arrow many times, Xiaolian followed Luo Ji nervously.

It is said that it is an experiment, but in fact there is no high-level process. To put it bluntly, it is to find a place to shoot an arrow and try it.

Walking to an empty space outside the camp, Luo Ji held a longbow, took two deep breaths, calmed down his emotions, and then took an arrow from a member of the Ordnance Department beside him, ready to start the test .

To be honest, this arrow is very rough, and even a little inferior, but there is no way, the conditions are limited, they can't get a lot of feathers at the end of the arrow for the time being, and the metal arrow is even more helpless, so it is simply a straight one. The sticks are sharpened and used as arrows.

However, the lethality is not a problem. After all, there is no such thing as armor in this era. If it is just inferior leather armor, it can still penetrate according to the sharpness of the arrow. Of course, the focus is on the part of the longbow.

During this period of time, Luo Ji has tried shooting too many times, and the entire movement of bending the bow and raising the arrow has become very proficient. He didn't dare to pull too hard all at once. The bowstring woven from animal tendons is pulled open.

Looking at the bowstring that was tensing little by little and was constantly stretched, Luo Ji's originally calm mood became uncontrollable and became a little nervous. His heart was beating so fast that he never thought of studying Bows and arrows can fail so many times.

The bow body made this time has no problem with its toughness. Looking at the longbow that has been completely pulled apart, Luo Ji sighed, as if he wanted to test the bow's endurance limit. Yes, he increased his strength a little bit, and forcibly pulled the bowstring that had been pulled to the full moon by another point.

Afterwards, he loosened his two fingers, and along with the sharp arrows that flew out, the sound of the system's notification sounded in Luo Ji's mind...

System prompt: Congratulations to player 'Luo Ji' for successfully making 'Bow and Arrow'.

System prompt: Congratulations to player 'Luo Ji' for successfully unlocking the military item 'Archery'.

Two system prompts in a row made Luo Ji, who was originally nervous, completely plunged into a burst of ecstasy. He didn't need to say anything at all. Looking at the parabola drawn by the arrow in the air, that moment swept over like a tsunami. The ecstasy almost made everyone in the Ordnance Department feel dizzy, and every face was flushed with the excitement, and then one by one they were dancing and revelling! Many of them shouted like a fool, venting their emotions in this way, "Success! We succeeded!! Hahahahaha!!"

After a period of cheering and celebrating like crazy, Luo Ji took two deep breaths, trying to calm down his emotions again, but the corners of his obviously grinning mouth couldn't hold back.

However, he still pretended to be serious and said, "Okay, okay, everyone calm down, this is just a trial work, there are still a lot of things to improve, give me a good job, tonight, add two more to the pot of the Ordnance Department. fish!"

Not surprisingly, Luo Ji's generous reward was greeted with cheers again, and many people even shouted "Long live the leader". Luo Ji felt a little embarrassed when he heard it, and hurriedly laughed and scolded the group. Do the right thing.

A qualified longbow, in addition to being able to shoot lethal arrows, is obviously also very important in durability. Of course, in addition to this, range, accuracy and stability are also very important. Therefore, in order to confirm These data, just shooting an arrow, is obviously not enough.

After everyone was ready to take their places, Luo Ji bent bows and arrows again, and started their follow-up experiments. Facts have proved that after learning the lessons of so many failures, the longbow they made this time is of very good quality, with a bow body. It is very tough and the string part is strong enough to shoot ten arrows in a row without any problems.

Just as Luo Ji was about to shoot a few more arrows and finish collecting the data, there was a sudden pain in the hand responsible for drawing the bow, causing his brows to wrinkle uncontrollably.

"His——" With a light hiss, Luo Ji looked down and saw that there was a deep blood mark on his finger by the bowstring. Counting the nearly 100 trials that failed in the past, Luo Ji In the past few days, at least 500 arrows have been fired, and he hadn't paid much attention to it before. When he came back to his senses, his fingers were like this...

Feeling the pain from his fingers, Luo Ji slapped his forehead, "I'm careless."

Then his mind turned around, and he quickly asked someone to find a relatively thick soft animal skin, and then made a few things similar to 'finger protectors' and put them on his fingers.

He was studying bows and arrows before, but he forgot the other small equipment that archers need to use. It was a miscalculation, but the things he wrote down some time ago were too many and too complicated, and there were too many things in his mind. , Occasionally one or two things can't be remembered, it is also helpless.

After putting on the finger guards, Luo Ji moved his fingers a bit, and they were still flexible. Then he tried to shoot a few arrows, and he felt a lot more comfortable. Then, after shooting a dozen more arrows, he finally got the data that he needed to collect. All collected.
