The other three tribes also saw what was happening here, and quickly sent people to ask Xia if they could take a look as well. They were also very curious.
They had heard that the Qingshan tribe was making weapons to protect the tribe, and had not originally wanted to go and see or inquire about it. But now that they had actually taken out the weapons and publicly tested their power, they thought that they probably wouldn't mind them watching.
Especially the Stone Horn Tribe. When they were fighting off the Gray Rock Tribe together with the Green Mountain Tribe, they saw a weapon in the hands of their sub-beasts that could be used to attack distant enemies. Several orcs from the Gray Rock Tribe were captured by the sub-beasts from the Green Mountain Tribe, so the Stone Horn Tribe was the most interested.
Xia thought about it for a while and agreed. They would know this sooner or later anyway.
The Yaksha Arena is relatively simple, but the process of making the bed crossbow is very complicated and cannot be understood at a glance. It’s okay to let them see its power, and it can also demonstrate the strength of the Qingshan tribe.
Many people soon gathered on the city wall to watch. Jian had completely recovered. After obtaining Xia's consent, he was sent over by Xi. Hua Ke also followed, and his eyes were still on Meng Yuqing.
However, Meng Yuqing, who was concentrating on the bed crossbow, did not notice him. Instead, Ruya saw him and glared at him several times, but did not show any hostility.
Meng Yuqing took Tongsui to the winch handle, and they stood on either side. "Grab the handle and turn it in this direction."
"Okay." Tongsui agreed.
Both of them hold onto the handle and use their combined strength.
The shaft turned extremely slowly as they moved.
"Tongsui, stop." Meng Yuqing spoke quickly.
After the two men let go of the handle, Meng Yuqing frowned. The two men were able to turn and pull apart, but the speed was too slow.
If it were replaced with lighter materials, it would definitely not be powerful enough.
Everyone looked at him in deep thought and did not disturb him.
In ancient times, it took multiple people to pull a three-bow crossbow. Although sub-beasts are much stronger than people in the modern world, it is still too unrealistic to rely on just two people.
Especially since he used enhanced materials for the sake of power.
"Call two more sub-beasts over, and let the four of us give it a try." Meng Yuqing turned around and said.
Immediately, many sub-beasts in the crowd were eager to try.
Xuan looked at the crowd and said, "Let's have two of the strongest sub-beasts."
Ruya originally wanted to come up, but after hearing what Xuan said, she shrank back.
His strength is indeed not ranked among the sub-beasts.
Hua Ke was somewhat tempted. His father was a rhinoceros orc, so he was also very strong.
But after thinking about it, he realized that this was a weapon from someone else's tribe after all, and it would be inappropriate for him to touch it. Besides... He glanced at Meng Yuqing again, scratched his head, and said nothing.
Because Xuan made the request, everyone discussed it and selected two sub-beasts, who were considered to be the two with the greatest strength among the sub-beasts present.
After Meng Yuqing explained the operation method to them, the four of them began to act.
The crossbow string was pulled.
Tongsui and the other two seemed to be fine, but Meng Yuqing seemed to be struggling.
Xuan frowned with worry in his eyes, but he knew he couldn't help with this matter.
If Meng Yuqing's strength and the cooperation of other sub-beasts can use this weapon, then all sub-beasts in the tribe can use it.
Fortunately, although the four of them struggled, they still managed to successfully pull the crossbow string to the designated position and fix it. The pulling speed was also much faster and within Meng Yuqing's acceptable range.
He shook his sore hands and remained standing.
Tongsui took the arrow she had made earlier and placed it on the crossbow under Meng Yuqing's guidance.
"Shall we try the range and power now?" Meng Yuqing asked the others while teaching them how to adjust the details and aim.
"I must try it!" Li said excitedly.
After Meng Yuqing adjusted the crossbow, he looked at Xuan and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, this arrow will fly very far. Will we be able to find it back then?"
"No problem." Xuan Tai turned his head and looked at Lian who was mixed in the crowd, "Lian, keep an eye on the arrow and pick it up after it falls to the ground."
Meng Yuqing was slightly stunned. Why did this sound so strange, as if...training a dog?
When Lian heard Xuan's words, he rolled his eyes, then walked to the edge of the city wall and jumped out.
Meng Yuqing was stunned for a moment! Why did he jump?
Then I saw a big parrot flying out and circling in the sky.
Chain turned twice and said, "I'm ready."
After Meng Yuqing came back to his senses, he walked to the trigger of the bed crossbow and pulled the trigger.
Buzz
There was the sound of the crossbow string vibrating, and the arrow on the crossbow had been shot out.
The chain also rushed away after the arrow.
"Wow" various surprised sounds came from the crowd.
The arrow quickly disappeared from sight and flew into the woods.
Everyone can only wait for the chain to come back to know the specific situation.
Chain returned quickly, but without the arrow.
"Chain? You didn't catch up with the arrow?" someone in the crowd asked curiously.
"Lian, are you capable of this? You didn't even catch up with him with a single arrow." An orc who was familiar with Lian joked.
"Go away, stop talking nonsense." Lian flapped his wings at the orc, creating a huge wind that messed up the hair of everyone near the orc.
"Lian, tell us quickly, what's going on?" someone asked impatiently.
"Ahem." Lian cleared his throat and said, "That arrow flew quite far and went straight through a big tree. Now it's stuck in the tree."
He descended from the sky and transformed back into human form. He put away his frivolous expression and said seriously, "It was a tree about one meter wide. If the tree hadn't been in the arrow's path, the arrow would have been able to fly. The arrow's tip penetrated the tree from one side to the other."
When Meng Yuqing and Xuan heard Lian say this, they didn't react at all, but the other tribesmen around them gasped.
According to Lian, if this arrow is shot at a large beast, it will definitely penetrate it directly. It's amazing!
The people from the other three tribes were naturally even more shocked. Hua Ke stared at Meng Yuqing with wide eyes, not caring that Ruya was still staring at him.
He looked at Meng Yuqing for a long time, then slowly withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and said in a low voice after a long while, "No wonder, it's really amazing."
