Vol 5 Chapter 6: Ask Leonard

"Damn boy, carving patterns on the barrels has no effect, and it will blow up unevenly by heating!" Hampton spit.
"Shut up, stupid baby, don't call me kid, I'm older than your grandfather's grandfather's grandfather, those who are not the pattern is a magic circle, can make the magic crystal cannon shoot magic bombs farther and farther!" Leonard slapped the table and yelled at Hampton.
"Even the magic array won't work. You can't even release the magical fireworks when the barrel is heated unevenly. The power is too powerful to blow up a ghostly, old-fashioned old thing." Hampton is not to be outdone, even more violent. Went back.
The two quarreled like this, and the nearby magicians and craftsmen all avoided them. Both of them were the veterans of the forging tower, and few people were willing to provoke them with grumpy tempers.
It's not surprising that Hampton is short-tempered. He is a gunpowder jar, and he feels comfortable without teaching his apprentice a day.
But although Leonard used to be a stubborn donkey, he was quite gentlemanly. He didn't drink, smoke, and didn't have a dirty word in his mouth. But obviously, he has now been assimilated by the old dwarf Hampton.
"It seems that I'm not here at the right time." Horn asked a passing wizard, "What are the two of them arguing about."
"It's about the magic crystal cannon. I don't know how long it will take to complete the magic crystal cannon. They are arguing about the gun barrel."
The magic crystal cannon is also a magic weapon that the council was inspired by the cannons of the Yarrow manpower field and began to study. The powerful power has left Horn's heart lingering.
After more than five years of research, I have already had a basic framework, but it is only a framework. It may take a lot of time to complete the product.
The magic crystal cannon is different from ordinary joint casting. Although it also requires strong magic power, ordinary people can also operate it. It only needs a large amount of magic crystal as energy to release it, so the magic cannot be too complicated, but simple enough. It is so simple that even if there is no magician, just a wild witch can use it to exert powerful power, so in order to meet these requirements, the final choice is the magic missile.
Magic missiles alone are very simple, but it is difficult to get the power of the force field cannon of the Yaro people. After all, if you just simply build a magic missile release device, it is better to arrange two more archers on the wall. So in the past five years, the research has not stopped and it has not been able to be made.
Horn did not interrupt the conversation between the two old men. For technicians like them, unexpected sparks may come up in every discussion, and the idea of ​​inspiration may not be found if interrupted, maybe this time. The discussion can make the appearance of the magic crystal cannon a few days earlier, so Horn waited.
The two of them discussed for a full half an hour before reaching a conclusion, then Horn walked to Leonard's side and said: "Leonard craftsman, do you have time? I have something to discuss with you. "
"Hey, Lord Memmhelin, when did you come here." Leonard was taken aback. The discussion just now was too fascinating and he didn't notice Horn at all.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, please come with me. I have two questions for you." Horn and Leonard found a quiet place in the forging tower.
Horn asked Leonard: "Mr. Leonard, the next question I want to ask is related to the elves. If you think it is inconvenient to tell me, you don’t need to force an answer."
"You ask, hurry up and finish the question. I still have something to do." Leonard said impatiently. He needs to study a lot. Horn's attitude towards Leonard is very tolerant because of their craftsmanship. People are like this at work, and Horn himself is like this when the research is critical.
"May I ask if there have been any changes in the elves in recent years, such as becoming urgent, and whether there are any rumors of what will happen in a few hundred years." Horn deliberately asked Leonard, he wanted to make sure Can ask what you want to ask without touching the secrets of the elves.
Leonard put his cigarette holder in his mouth a lot. After coming to the Magic Council for so many years, he has completely turned into an old smoker.
"I don't know these things very well. I don't pay much attention to these things. However, in recent years, the elves have indeed become more urgent than before. It is like promoting magic within the elves. It took ten or eight years for the elders to make a decision, but the Elf King made the decision directly, and the elders rarely interfered.
And in the past, even if you are a human being, no matter how talented you are, your majesty will not pay attention to you until you really grow up, let alone trade with you, let us help you work. "
"Thank you, Mr. Leonard." After sending Leonard away, Horn was lost in thought. The news from Leonard let him know that the elves should also know that they were more than two hundred years later. What to face, so there is a high probability that Motia did not lie.
Of course, even if so much has been confirmed, Horn only selectively believes Mortia's words~EbookFREE.me~ because lying seven points to three points is the most confusing, Horne only believes what he confirms. As for the others, he depends on the situation.
In this case, Horn should look for an opportunity to look at the method of extracting the seed of the world provided by Motia, because Horn wanted to get rid of the control of the world will and also wanted enough strength.
But now that he came to the Forge Tower, Horn didn't plan to go back directly. Enoch had said that Karp had some interesting inventions, and he wanted to see what it was.
As a magician who is good at making magic props, Kapu's status in the casting tower has been rising year by year. Kapu's research on Yaro technology is at the forefront. For example, the success of the previous magic flying boat is due to him. .
He has a single large laboratory, much larger than the mage tower of the average magician. When Horn came over, he saw a lot of low-level magicians and craftsmen running around here. There was no rest. Look here. I get very busy, and Karp’s research seems to have a lot of tasks.
As soon as he walked into the laboratory, Horn's eyes lit up because he saw two interesting things.
At the entrance of the laboratory, there are two human-shaped steel puppets. These two steel puppets are all covered with rivets. They sit and wield sledgehammers, sitting in simple and repetitive tasks. Horn even found that they can deal with some accidents. react.
"Haha, it's interesting." Horn said, touching his chin.
