Chapter 467 Chapter 465: Practical Evaluation (Subscription Request)
Luo Yi also had to admit that for a noble, the heir was very important.
With an heir, there is inheritance, there is an object of loyalty, and there is the possibility of continuing for thousands of years, and people's hearts are at peace.
Ever since that "man-made disaster", the Raymond family has been losing descendants, which is why the illegitimate son Luo Yi came to power.
But even so, such a large territory and so many benefits have attracted the covetousness of countless people.
In other words, he was able to hold on because of his extraordinary skills and incredible strength.
Until now, the disciple has surpassed the master, which has naturally won the hearts of these vassals and increased their loyalty.
But the problem is, without offspring and successors, people's hearts will always be uneasy!
Everyone was afraid. If something happened to Luo Yi, what would happen to this huge foundation? !
From this perspective, the child arrived at a very timely moment.
In fact, in the following days, even Luo Yi could feel that the entire Flower Territory showed a different kind of stability and vitality.
It seems that even work, study and cultivation have become more meaningful.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that Luoyi was exempted from land taxes for one year.
Considering the current profits of Flower County, the tax revenue from the fields is already negligible, and with a wave of his hand, the biggest burden and shackles are removed for the common people at the bottom.
Their lives will be much better, and their loyalty to the Raymond family will naturally reach a higher level.
Luo Yi had wanted to do this for a long time, but there was no suitable opportunity.
This time, the birth of the child is used to give benefits to the people.
Well, naming this little guy really gave Luo Yi a headache.
There was no way to name it, so he finally discussed it with Lilia and used the dice rolling method.
There are six sides with different numbers, and each number points to the name they have chosen before.
Finally, after trying many times, I finally decided on the name, Klein!
Klein Raymond, the new lion, the future master of this territory, a man destined to shoulder great power and heavy responsibilities.
In the following days, Roy also adapted.
He was struggling to adapt to life with a child and being a father, even though he had a large number of servants.
This was Klein's first time being a son, and it was also Roy's first time being a father, so no one could laugh at anyone else!
These days, Lilia's body has been recovering. After all, she is a professional and not that fragile.
Moreover, all kinds of recovery potions used are top-notch.
What gives them the most headaches is the crying of children. When they can't comfort them, they feel really annoyed and helpless.
However, just a few days later, after all the arrangements were made, Loy led his men out of Brussels.
He fenced off a piece of wasteland and prepared to conduct a combat test on the tank prototype, the first generation king of land warfare.
Luo Yi didn't bring many people with him on this trip, but they were all the ones he trusted the most.
Guardian Oliveira, Iron Knight Phil, Flame Sword Saint Otto, and Grand Knight Commander Alfonso Zeke.
The four of them occupied four directions, to be vigilant and block any intruders, whether human or beast.
Luo Yi was not idle either. He pricked up his ears and used the sacred skill [Ear of Leman] to monitor the surrounding environment to make sure nothing was missed.
Ms. Palacios acts as record-keeper and is also responsible for magical attacks.
As for Hill Douglas, he took on the duties of driver and machine gunner, while Mrs. Linda took on the duties of gunner and loader.
You ask them how one person can do the work of two people?
Just kidding, there is no extraordinary wizard with a low IQ. Multitasking is basic skill, and with the "Mage's Hand", he is definitely capable of doing it.
Then, everyone saw it, saw a behemoth weighing sixty tons galloping across the earth!
A speed of seventy yards is not very fast, but this is a tireless steel monster.
You don't have to worry about ordinary potholes, slopes and gullies, just walk on flat ground.
Luo Yi even arranged to dig a trench, but under the strong power, the tracks rolled over it directly without causing any hindrance.
As for the attack, the artillery was at full blast, and every roar was directed at the target in a straight line, blowing all obstacles into pieces.
Heavy machine guns are aimed at small targets that are close, and their bullets sweep across like a sickle.
Not to mention ordinary soldiers, even extraordinary knights would be powerless in the face of such a lump of iron.
Of course, there are various situations in Roy's test.
For example, simulating a heavy knight, wearing a full set of armor, fully unleashing his fighting spirit, turning it into defense, and then colliding head-on with the king of land warfare.
The result was no surprise. The weight of sixty tons was simply unbearable and the heavily armored knights were crushed into pieces.
This represents the strongest tactic of the Age of Knights. The massed charge of the Knights poses no threat in front of the King of Land Warfare.
Of course, the agility of extraordinary strong men is unmatched by heavy tanks. Although the tank gun is powerful, it is useless if it can't hit the target.
If it could fly, the advantage would be even greater.
However, their most powerful attack method, Dou Qi Slash, was powerless against the defensive armor of the King of Land Warfare.
At most it will leave a two or three inch scar, which is not serious at all.
Their best means of destruction is actually to attack wheels, tracks, gun barrels, heavy machine guns, etc.
As long as it can cause damage and make the King of Land Warfare lose its mobility, it will be more effective.
Therefore, against these flying units, the Maxim heavy machine gun alone is still insufficient, and an anti-aircraft machine gun that can fire at the air must be designed.
In comparison, the damage that magic can cause is more diverse.
Moreover, offensive magic has little effect. Magic such as fireballs, water streams, ground spikes, entangled vegetation, wind blades, etc. still cannot break the armor.
But if the flame is allowed to continue burning, forming a high temperature roast;
It makes the earth crack, forming deep pits, so deep that if you fall in, you can't get out;
Let the water flood into the machine, causing the magic energy to short-circuit;
Let the grass and trees grow, drill into the bearing hub barrel, and delay the action;
Let the strong wind blow up smoke and dust, obscuring the view, etc.
These lateral destructive methods can make the King of Land Warfare show his lack of response methods.
After all, it is a purely mechanical drive, and all the magic energy is converted into power, so there is no other means.
Therefore, in some cases it seems to be stretched.
If a special magic shield or defensive force field could be customized, even if it was just a deflection force field, it would be of great help.
Overall, this evaluation was quite successful.
Although there are many minor problems, the first generation of King of Land has demonstrated extremely strong reliability!
There are basically few problems when crossing mountains and rivers, there are not many mechanical failures, and the design is extremely reasonable.
Of course, because this is an extraordinary world, the power of an individual often reaches an extremely terrifying level.
So, although tanks are powerful, they are not unmatched.
But if dozens or hundreds of them were gathered together, their effect on the battlefield would definitely be more terrifying than dozens or hundreds of extraordinary strong men. They could almost push down all fortifications and crush all enemies.
In Luo Yi's opinion, this is a super-upgraded version of the Heavy Knights. Both the attack and defense have been raised to a terrifying level. The moment they take action, victory is decided.
Of course, although there are many advantages, there are also some problems, and many directions for improvement have been proposed.
First of all, today's armor has achieved the ultimate defense against physical attacks, but it is still far behind in terms of magic defense.
Therefore, installing a magic shield is of utmost importance.
The second is the observation system.
Originally, according to Luo Yi's idea, he wanted to use an indoor observation mirror, similar to the one on a submarine, put his eyes on the observation mirror, and twist the lens to see all around.
In fact, it was installed, but the effect was extremely poor and the field of view was limited. It was not practical at all on a fierce battlefield.
Finally, a hole was opened in the front, and then a window was made with fences and transparent glass, facing the driving area.
The driver can sit there and see the situation directly in front of him, but his field of vision is still severely limited, and he will also become the enemy's main target of attack.
In fact, the most perfect solution at this stage is the combination of the magic eye and the magic mirror, which allows you to have an overall view of the battlefield situation in the cockpit.
It’s a pity that the technology of refining magic eyes and magic mirrors is not only top secret, but also only mastered by some major forces, and Luo Yi does not have it!
Most importantly, the magic mirror is quite fragile and can be easily damaged if it is placed in a tank and bumped into something.
It would be best to find a better alternative.
But no matter what, Luo Yi had a great time during this period.
Driving such a big thing across the wilderness, with the accelerator pressed to the floor, you can really rush around recklessly without any worries.
This scene really stunned several powerful natural disaster masters.
The more they observed, the more they realized that there would be no place for knights on future battlefields.
That would be a fight and competition between magic-powered weapons and machines!
Ordinary soldiers are as fragile as ants!
Unless a warrior has achieved the fourth level, he will seem insignificant in front of these magical weapons.
Then, Oliveira and Alfonso couldn't help but go up and try it out, having a lot of fun.
In the end, Ms. Palacios was not spared, and she also demonstrated extremely terrifying learning ability and an incredible imagination.
She first used a 'water bag technique' to secure herself in the driver's seat and avoid the bumps.
Then there is the 'Hand of Multiple Mages', where one person replaces all positions,
Finally, using the 'Mechanical Heart', he replaced his emotions with reason, thereby multitasking and maximizing the power of this prototype.
It can move at a speed of 60 yards and rotate the turret 360 degrees. When it reaches the top of the target in mid-air, it can fire and accurately hit the target.
It really showed everyone what this prototype could achieve.
As expected, the strong are the strong. Even when it comes to controlling machines, they are far beyond the reach of others.
In the end, only Iron Knight Phil and Fire Sword Saint Otto were left, their faces full of regret and unwillingness.
There's nothing we can do about it, since they are the only two pure warriors.
Without magic power, I can't drive it, and I can only watch helplessly?!
