248 Red Death debut 3

Guards and dwarves developed a stable propellant, improved the projectiles, studied directions and angles of foot cadavers, and built up a primitive level of ballistics for red death.

Cecilia and Lucas were also actively involved in the development of Red Death No. 1, hoping for better opinions that they would not expect.

In the process, Lucas had a good side to him.

“Why not use enchantments? ”

“Enhancing? It could have the effect of increasing power or increasing range, but the accuracy problem is more urgent now. ”

“That's right."

“Is there a good way? ”

“It turns out that this rocket is heavily influenced by the wind because it flies a long distance. ”

“Yes, this type of weapon is a persistent problem. ”

Until it was built in the old Korean Peninsula, home of the Chesapeake Rocket, Concrete Rocket, Mysore Kingdom, and even the security of the Korean Peninsula, old technology rocket weapons had to be heavily influenced by the wind.

The size of the rocket is small and lightweight, and the thrust is low and slow on rocket standards. It is a result of being heavily obstructed by the wind during long distances. If an unexpected gust blows during flight, it can bend greatly and can occur until the rocket propulsion creates a door.

Although it is troublesome,

It was the natural limit of the weapon. There was no way to completely solve this shortcoming, unless there was a skill in controlling nature or measuring the wind perfectly.

on a global basis.

“So what if enchanting doesn't affect the wind at all? ”

“… Is that possible? ”

“Yes, I have recently learned magic. Invalidate the original. Enhancements are possible. ”

“Void Element? ”

The guard stumbled upon the knowledge he had learned in the world. I don't think I've ever seen a word like that come out of a book.

I did, but did not remember the details.

“Tell me more. ”

“Literally four elements of fire, water, wind, and soil are magical spells to prevent them from being affected by certain elements, or any element. There are limitations, of course. Weak elemental void magic can stop a torch, but it cannot stop a Dragon Breach, and general winds and gusts cannot stop a blade of power from breaking a man. ”

“That is, if you enchant elemental invalidation magic on the rocket, it will fly away and not be affected by the wind? ”

“Yes, just stop the natural breeze

Enchanting an element to the extent of voiding is not that difficult. ”

“I didn't know there was such good magic. ”

“It's only been a while since I was able to use my enchantments well enough. I've learned it before, but it's not widely used magic. Usually, it's more effective to hit something like a magical shield than an elemental nullification. I learned this as a basic process, but I thought it would be useful to combine it with your weapons......

After listening to Lucas, it took Cecilia a long time to realize there was magic like that.

I nodded as if I had realized. Lou Cass has just come up with this magic, so I can't blame Cecilia for not being a magician.

What is important is that, based on these security standards, ‘primitive rocket weapons’ inevitably have a problem and a solution to the problem of wind.

“I didn't know there was such a way. It really helped. ”

“Heh heh, what is it. ”

“Can I Hang Each Enchantment On A Rocket?"

“It's possible. It's more like explosive champagne.

because it's much easier. I just don't know when to use it, so I'm going to have to put in a permanent enchantment... and that's not going to be easy. not even one Gatling magazine a day. ”

“As expected, there is a practical problem. Of course, it's better than nothing. ”

Given the good opinion, the escort immediately decided to take the test. Gelrod also agreed with Lucas, who had given his opinion from the guards.

“I see what you mean. The fire arrows either go out in the wind or they go in the wrong direction.

It means that a baby can light a fire, but red death can add up. ”

“Yes, the wind will at least be much better. ”

“I'll see what I can do. ”

Due to the combined intent of security and gelrod, the improved ‘Red Death No. 1’ prototype entered the launch test again.

A little more stable structure and propellant were added with the advice of escort, and the rocket body was also improved to aerodynamically stable flying structures.

And it's crucial that Lucas' enchantments add up to that and see what happens.

A. It will soon be revealed.

“Lucas, please. ”

“Yes.”

The test was decided to proceed in two ways. One is a few of the original items that were seen before improvement by the first guard. And several prototypes that improved propellants and bodies.

Once Lucas had chambered the prototypes before they were fixed to the launch platform.

‘Nullify the Element’, which he said, was especially enchanting to nullify the wind.

After the enchantment, Lucas returns to the viewing bunker.

“Is it over? ”

“Yes.”

“Will it work?”

“Of course. Anything else, but the elemental void spell should definitely work. ”

Lucas confidently said, but the guard could not let go of the doubt completely.

I knew magic was common in this world, but I only knew the words in the book that nullified the elements. Besides, Lucas is a bit of a wizard after all.

Aren't you?

I chose a windy day for the enchantment test. The results will come soon.

Soon after, the fierce aura that had been waiting for came. Then, just like the last time, a craftsman ran out, lit a fire on the ignition line, and jumped into the bunker.

This time it's a test to launch three rockets at once. Because of this, three electrical wires were also connected and fired almost simultaneously.

Generally, the line of fire does not turn off well enough by the wind. What's on the rocket right now is a mixture of black powder and fiber.

As a ‘black dotted line’, performance was much lower compared to that of the Earth in the 21st century. However, there was still performance that did not turn off well enough by the wind.

In fact, while the wind was blowing fairly well, the electrical wiring worked without problems. The performance of the electrical conduction line itself was also a natural result given that it walked up to the element invalidation inspiring without being interrupted by the wind.

The problem is that the dotted line burns to the end.

The same harsh wind must have had a detrimental effect on rockets flying. As Lucas said, we'll find out soon enough.

1.

Chiik

Almost simultaneously, three red death tails are on fire. All three generations burst into flames with the power of the propellant, striking and flying the projectile.

A sharp gust of wind blows through the bunker. But surprisingly, as Lucas assured me, all three rockets flew stable as if they weren't affected by the wind. Then all three of them were trapped and exploded further away from the LKM.

“What do you think?”

“Fantastic.”

The guard gently strokes Lucas' head in admiration.

“Surely... the power of magic is great, too. I'm reminded that there are limits to my knowledge and common sense. ”

The first test was successful, and the second was an improved prototype.

The wind blows hard, and you fire at it. The estimation that the name was an improved product was longer, and the accuracy was higher. But one of the three did not explode.

Given the last test, there have been nine prototypes launched in front of the guards so far.

One of them seems to have caught fire.

A 9 out of 10% chance of ignition is something you can never ignore.

Poor terrorist organizations can detect and use this level of bad actors, but this level of bad weapons dealt by arms dealers can be devastating.

“We could use some improvement. ”

“I see. Something went wrong with the improvement process. ”

“Since the distance and accuracy side are clearly selected, we will care only to avoid accidents. ”

“I will. ”

Even though it was a last-minute setback, the results obtained in this exam were great. Most of all, Lucas's testimony is true.

A little more quality could be used in practice. The guard cleared his mind and stated his plan for the future.

“We'd better finish Red Death 1 as soon as possible. At first I would ask for Lucas' enchanting help, but I can't just expect his. A stable range of propellants and rocket structures without the help of magic

and continuously improve quality to ensure minimum accuracy. ”

“I agree.”

“Lucas, please take good care. ”

“Don't worry. ”

Red Death 1 has continued to improve since the second test launch was somewhat successful.

For now, Lucas's enchantment was supposed to be 100% inside, and he focused on making sophisticated rockets that weren't affected by the wind.

The result was a rocket gun with a large warhead of over 10 kg, a maximum range of 2 km and no wind effect, which ensured to some degree of accuracy.

Mass production was difficult because each rocket had to be enchanted.

Lightly enchanted just before launching, it was disadvantageous for mass production, as it required permanent effective enchantments on stored goods.

Therefore, the ultimate goal of security is‘ Red Death No. 1 ’with a long range and minimal accuracy without the assistance of enchanting, and' Red Death 'with a short but increased accuracy.

Hm 2 ’.

The rocket, which can be launched regardless of the weather, was literally a special product and was going to be sold at a higher price than normal items.

More than a month passed while planning and improving the rocket.

Everyone is rewarded for their hard work, so over ten ‘Red Death No. 1’ specials have been completed.

In the process of improving, warheads have also been successfully loaded, weighing only 15 kg. Warheads were filled with gunpowder as well as metal fragments to maximize lethal force.

If I could hit it, it would show more destructive power than any of the weapons the Guardians have ever sold.

The problem was not to say that it was still sophisticated, accuracy, and unit price.

Chestnut rockets could be used by poor terrorist organizations for as little as 800 months per unit if they were made cheaper, but the red death created now was more expensive per unit. Given the price range performance, I still haven't sold my goods properly.

‘It might be better to have it premium than mass production. Or set another sales strategy instead of selling like gold... anyway, concessions.

We're all gonna have to battle Jill. You'll need a splendid debut stage to do that...

The object was completed, but the concerns of the guard did not go away. After a few more days, an urgent call came from the security guard.

“News from Luger! ”

A swiftly flown Wyvern pilot brings a letter. It turned out that the Imperial Army was engaged in military action around Luger and began to operate in the provinces of Rotia again.

“Looks like the Empire won't stand for it either. Then...

I got a better idea in my guard's head.

C.

With the spectacular debut stage of the weapon, there was nothing like a battlefield.
