Chapter 446: Hunting Guide for Dragons and Elves
Hunting.
If you only get food from the herds in the territory, it will consume a lot of meat in the territory.
Every young dragon that can spread its wings will carry elves with superb hunting skills to form a hunting team with its own high mobility advantage.
The elves set out on the dragon at dawn and bring back their prey at dusk.
Not only the meat obtained from hunting, but also the fur and bones from the prey. Quite a lot of magical creatures have value all over their bodies.
For the lord, a monster nest that can be continuously harvested is an efficient gold mountain.
Hunting these monsters is a big problem for lords who have underdeveloped vehicles and have not built roads... Hunting beyond a certain distance is not economical.
Hunting within 10 kilometers, hunting within 30 kilometers, long-distance hunting of 50 kilometers or even 100 kilometers.
Movement speed, endurance, combat effectiveness, transportation, and supplies.
This is not an economical solution. Usually, lords will only maintain an acceptable hunting team size.
And Fang Ai's dragons and elves.
Basically all the above problems were solved at the same time.
The elves riding dragons can increase their movement speed and carrying capacity by installing dragons with enhanced air wings made of floating stone dust.
‘Attached air wings’
‘Non-combat auxiliary wind wings made by elves, using a large amount of floating stone and lightweight rune metal as the main materials. It can reduce the physical consumption during flight to a certain extent and improve the endurance of dragons using air wings. ’
‘Carrying weight +30%, movement speed +10%, physical loss during movement -30%, physical loss caused by weight increase -50%’
As for where the floating stones came from, the waste from Ji Lin’s laboratory... These materials and impurities that were judged to be difficult to recycle were handed over to Fang Ai and Li Yan at a lower cost.
Extracting the remaining floating stones from these stone mines is too energy-consuming. The territory cannot spare so many technicians, so it is simply sold cheaply to Fang Ai and Li Yan to improve trust.
The territory is quite rich, so rich that they don’t need to take a second look at these slag.
Just like hunting, the diminishing effect of the boundary.
But these slags are very important to the two lords who are not in the Sky Island World... They get floating stones from the slag, and the cost is only 50% of buying directly on the market.
Let's get back to the topic. The advantages of dragons and elves are mobility and small-scale combat power.
Unlike Li Yan, who is a turtle, Li Yan finds a place to squat, and others don't even want to look at him.
In this low era, no one wants to take the initiative to attack the steel defense line formed by tree people.
The disadvantage is the positional warfare ability... When she needs to fight head-on...
Fang Ai, didn't start the expedition directly.
Directly avoid fighting between players, stay in the world created by the system and fight monsters with peace of mind.
If she can get the same resources in the territory, she doesn't need to go to the dangerous world to compete with the lords.
The elves with the magic rifle, which is read as a magic rifle and written as a simplified staff, can engrave spells and attack the monster's nest at the fastest speed.
First feed the picky dragon, and then select the materials suitable for bringing back to the territory.
Hunting brings in 60% of the territory's income, and rare materials from monsters are still very marketable in the market.
Biological materials are timeless.
Fang Ai looked at the young red dragon who was choked by his howling in the pool, and his eyes were on the white platform not far away.
That was the berthing port prepared for the returning hunting team.
This entire hill was transformed into a "dragon's nest" by them, with everything from the berthing port to the dragon's nest... It is convenient to concentrate on one point for operation and for the elves to go to work.
The elves in dark brown hunting clothes jumped off the dragon's back, holding magic rifles and carrying longbows.
These magic rifles, which are known for their cheapness, could once be equipped in the hands of every line infantryman. They were designed for industrialization and mass production, and to overwhelm the enemy with absolute numbers.
The mass-produced magic rifles have been enhanced and improved by the elves in their hands, improving the properties of the weapons while increasing consumption and working hours.
‘Magic Rifle I’
‘Engraved Module: This weapon can quickly switch columns to install different types of spell crystals, and fill in crystallized ammunition with corresponding attributes to quickly cast spells, or directly cast spells through the holder’s own abilities. ’
‘Switch crystals: Arcane Missiles, Weakened Fireball, Ice Piercing, Poisoned Seed, Focused Beam. Effective range: 140-220. ’
‘Resonance Synergy: The elves engraved a unique elven joint rune for this weapon, allowing elven soldiers to enjoy unique bonuses when using magic rifles, and the elves can also adapt to the weapons in their hands faster. ’
‘Hit rate increased by 10%, consumption reduced by 10% when directly using energy to fire, firing frequency increased by 10%, and reliability increased by 20%. ’
‘Combat Gun Type: The elves installed a special assault gun blade for this weapon. Don’t think that the magic rifle is fragile. The mithril metal used to make the magic rifle is also quite qualified as a melee weapon... When needed, it will become a qualified magic short spear. ’
‘Switch crystals: Electric shock, close range fire, smoke screen, flash. Effective range: 5-40. ’
‘Rather than a rifle, it’s more like a simplified staff. But to cast a spell, you just need to load the ammunition, aim at your target... and then, pull the trigger! Note: You can fire it even if you don’t want to pull the trigger. Note 2: When using a melee crystal, pay attention to whether there are teammates around you. ’
Fang Ai has used this rifle.
It’s great.
It has no recoil and high accuracy. Even she can knock down a target after aiming the crosshairs.
Especially the focused beam, which has low power, but it is a real laser gun.
But the power is so low that it has little effect unless it hits the eyes.
It has both melee and long-range modes, and it is a fifth-era weapon that spans the ages.
Everything good has a price.
Expensive.
Converted to the market price of two hundred units of gold per gun, if most of the materials could not be obtained through hunting, she really couldn’t afford to support this two-hundred-person elf hunting team.
Two hundred guns! Equivalent to 40,000 units of gold!
If you die in an expedition and the weapon is not recovered, it will be directly -200.
The loss would be even greater if the crystal ammunition they carried was included.
Although the pioneering expedition could rescue people, the weapons were too expensive!
So the ordinary elves usually used their longbows more often. She didn't have enough money to equip each elf with a standard magic rifle type I.
The longbow required too much skill from the elves, while the magic rifle took into account both long-range and close combat and had lower requirements.
If Ji Lin didn't want to form a united front with her, she would have no intention of participating in the battle between lords... There was no problem in the exercise battlefield. If they died in the exercise battlefield, the system would still replenish their resources.
