Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core (Book Version Title: A Different World Dungeon Made with the Devil)

Then Crowe came to the officer who commanded the archers. Because I was more concerned about the number of archers than I thought.

"The archers seem to be on a large scale... is this a general braid?

"No, we're increasing the number of archers for less sorcerers in the Theodoram army. I was wondering if there could be a higher number than in other countries."

I see......

"Is that also why it's in both extreme soldier outfits: long bows and crossbows?

"Yes, we basically attack from a distance with a long bow, and the approached soldiers try to end it with a crossbow. Crossbows take a lot of time to load, so there are more people. There was also a proposal to create a soldier for the role of loader, but given that the shooting speed would drop if the loader was killed, and the loader (soothsayer) would become a soldier if the shooter was killed, the opinion that it was a waste of manpower became significant and disappeared."

Well...... I guess so.

"What type of arrow? Just regular arrows?

"No. The Longbowmen carry ten firearms each."

"Ten bottles...... many?

"I don't hear archers from other countries carry firearms all the time, so there will be a lot of them"

"Crossbows don't shoot fire arrows, do they?

"Yes, it's just that on this expedition we were tested with special arrows"

At the end of the bolt brought out by the Archer Commander while saying this - the arrow dedicated to the crossbow - was fitted with a demonic stone instead of a "(do it).

"Crossbows can pierce the approximate armor, but they wanted me to try it out if someone - wearing strong armor, monsters, etc. - came out that didn't work"

"Hmm. Is that a crossbow version of the Demon Stone bullet for the stone thrower... any test shots?

"I'm not doing it. Similar to a netting bullet, this was also brought in as critical. However, we hear that you drilled a hole in something with three layers of armor."

"Well... that's an unspeakable power."

"Yes, I just don't know how effective it can be on a large warcraft like a dragon, even if the penetration goes up"

"Still effective for interpersonal fights,"

Then Crowe turned his eyes, like a long rope. Knowing that it was the archer's equipment that he thought was just rope, Crowe was driven by curiosity.

"What's this? Isn't that just rope?

"Ha. This was also brought in by Development Headquarters, called the Fire Rope"

Fire rope?

"How do you use it?

"In short, it's an oil-stained rope, but they have a wire core inside. If you release the arrows that tie this together onto a standing tree or something, and set fire to the tightly stretched fire..."

"I see. You want me to lay a stop line with burning rope? It's a cavalry raid."

"Yes, it was thought that this would work because you could simply stretch it to the ground to create a belt of fire"

Sure, this is a good idea. Let's try to hire him quickly.

Crowe, who turned to the Infantry Force Commander (originally), asked a question about something he had long cared about, namely the sword of the Theodoram soldiers.

"Ah, yes. Certainly there was an opinion from the ancient conscripts that the sword had become more fragile than it had been before."

"Wasn't that the problem?

"Yes, because it just helps that each person is given a sword, and the damaged sword can be quickly recovered and replaced by a new sword. The soldiers also liked that it was easier to fight than before."

"On this expedition, what's going on around there?

"I hope you ask the heavy guys for more information, but I hear the replacement sword is ready. From the pain in training, I decided how much sword to prepare."

I see. Is that what the Theodoram Army thinks?

"What do you mean the blacksmith is accompanying you?

"I didn't ask"

We need to check with the heavy units.
