Divine Realm: Starting with the Broken Bone Dragon

Chapter 71 The Catapult's Invention

Skeleton Mage Gathering Place

The ground here was full of craters caused by various magical attacks. After Jiang Mengyao repaired it many times, she was blown up by these skeleton mages.

After all, their intelligence, while slightly higher than that of gargoyles and skeleton archers, is still only slightly higher. They are about the size of 7 or 8-year-old children. Anyone who has raised children knows that children of this age will not listen unless they are disciplined.

—Just kidding, they won't listen even if you hit them.

Jiang Mengyao couldn't even fight these skeleton mages—how could you expect an undead creature with the talent of 'insensitivity' to feel pain?

"Magic 1, Magic 2, in the coming days, you will begin research and development of metal-based magic."

Lin Fan's small body hovered in front of the two distinctly different skeleton mages, and he spoke calmly.

Law 1: "Okay."

Law 2: "This is called spell, not magic."

Lin Fan rubbed his head, not arguing with Law 2. In his view, spells and magic were no different, only the way they were performed was different.

It's like the problem of 1*2*3. You can calculate it in order, or you can perform the 2*3 operation first. The result will not be different in essence.

However, the main reason was that Lin Fan had argued with Law 2 for a long time before, and even used the pressure of a high-level undead to bully Law, but Law 2 just wouldn't change his mind, leaving Lin Fan helpless.

"Sigh, we still need to figure out how to research new types of troops, and the energy within Number One's body. There's so much to do. If only we could just fly planes and tanks directly."

Lin Fan leaned back, the entire dragon falling into the air, when suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him.

"Tanks are essentially just upgraded ballistae, aren't they? Ballistae require materials to craft, assembly, and bullets, but skeletons don't!"

"Furthermore, the skeleton army possesses the talent of being impervious to pain; even when they transform, they feel no pain!"

The more Lin Fan thought about it, the brighter the fire of his soul shone in his eyes, until finally it began to burn fiercely.

Lin Fan casually grabbed a skeleton that had just advanced to the transcendent level and hadn't yet transformed into another type of soldier, his magic power surging in his hand.

What he needs to do now is not to modify the existing magic circle, but to create a completely new troop conversion circle that can adapt to this divine realm.

"The head—keep it here, place it at the very front of the ballista, and aim at the target yourself."

"This body type has far too few bones, add more!"

Lin Fan waved his left and right claws incessantly, throwing numerous extraordinary bones into his magic circle.

collapse--

As expected, the magic circle exploded, and the skeleton inside was reduced to just a head, waiting to be repaired.

"Can't I add this much? Or did I add it too quickly?"

The flames of the soul flickered in Lin Fan's eyes. He casually pieced together a superhuman skeleton for the skeleton and then grabbed another superhuman skeleton to begin his experiment.

"—As expected, I released it too quickly; the extraordinary-level skeleton couldn't withstand this kind of pressure..."

Time passed slowly amidst the continuous experiments, and 20 years went by in the blink of an eye.

.......

"Finally, we have a finished product!"

Lin Fan used his magic to rub his skull, and the fire of his soul became unusually weak.

In front of him appeared a strange skull, 3 meters long and 2 meters wide.

Rather than a skeleton, it's more accurate to describe it as a skeletal construct.

On either side of this skeletal construct is a skeletal arm used to hold the bowstring, while below are four legs that replace the tires, and you can vaguely see familiar claws.

Directly in front of you is the skull of a feline, shimmering with a ghostly blue flame of its soul.

Synopsis: A modified skeletal tiger, but clearly, he is a complete failure.

After briefly reviewing the data of this skeleton tiger, Lin Fan was not surprised at all. In fact, it would have been surprising if this skeleton tiger had actually become another type of soldier.

His envisioned bone crossbow should be able to load itself and produce bullets, but clearly, this skeletal tiger could not do that.

"To produce bone arrows for combat, one must have the ability to accelerate recovery, and currently, there is only one clan in the Divine Realm that possesses this ability."

Lin Fan hesitated for a moment.

Is the ballista really more effective than the gargoyle?

After thinking about it, he decided to capture a superhuman gargoyle and modify it to try and see if it would actually work.

As the light from the magic circle faded, a somewhat abstract ballista appeared before Lin Fan. Its shape was not much different from the Skull Tiger Ballista, except that it had an additional layer of rock armor on its surface.

Lin Fan was taken aback. Rock armor—wasn't that the best bullet? With just a tiny bit of bone, a huge piece of rock armor could be attached to attack the enemy.

The weapon used in this attack seems to be—a catapult?!

Thinking about the arm strength that gargoyles possess, it seems like it might actually be a good idea?

Immediately, Lin Fan began to optimize and upgrade the structure of the magic array again, and in just 5 years, a brand new gargoyle catapult was born.

Brief introduction: A catapult? The person who studied it is a genius.

The catapult's structure is very simple. Lin Fan folded it directly from the waist of the gargoyle, using its legs as the base. Two wings hung on the sides of the catapult. The catapult's size was more than twice that of a ballista, reaching 5 meters long and 3 meters wide, while still maintaining its ability to fly.

Although the flight speed is greatly reduced, it is still much faster than the movement speed of skeleton archers and skeleton mages.

The gargoyle's head still uses the design of the ballista, placing it at the very front for observation.

The arms are much longer, with the palms cupped together for use as 'stone throwers'. When it is time to load ammunition, the arms can separate on their own to remove the internal 'bones' for use as 'stone throwers'.

The internal skeleton is covered with a thick layer of rock armor, forming a sphere.

"Hmm, let's call it the Bone Catapult, or just Catapult for short."

Lin Fan casually gave this new unit a name and couldn't wait to test the catapult's firepower.
