Chapter 229 Attack
"This is a specially made bomb. The fuse is controlled by Nini's biological fuse. Its weight is also specially designed. It is roughly the weight of two soldiers carrying equipment. As for its power, I haven't tried a bomb of this equivalent yet."
Chloe said with her eyes sparkling.
Well, another bomb enthusiast.
Xiu Si couldn't help but sigh. Ever since Nini discovered that bombs could effectively kill sea urchins, many people have begun to study this gorgeous weapon.
The concept of equivalent proposed by Hughes was also sought after by them, and this situation became more and more serious when the extraordinary people found that they had ways to avoid the dangers posed by bombs.
Banshees can use the healing effects of Symbiotic Pact to offset the damage of bombs. They are almost using it as a melee weapon. They like weapons that have a shorter range but a smaller damage area.
The Fire Moths were even more outrageous. Zeus had seen Chloe use her Stand ability before. She seemed to have the ability to switch places between her real body and her Stand. Zeus had observed her fighting with bombs, and she would go wherever there were more people with the bombs in her arms.
Having been bombed so many times, even if the fishmen and arm monsters are now fearless, they will not rush forward when they see Chloe.
What is this? Is it to make the other party feel instinctively fearful?
In short, Castel's fighters now have more or less some kind of equivalent worship, and it is said that Alexi almost wrote this into the holy scriptures.
"So you plan to turn this airship into a disposable explosive?"
“That’s not impossible.”
Chloe said a little embarrassedly.
Oh no, are they really planning a kamikaze attack? Oh, come to think of it, a kamikaze attack is also a biological fuse, so it's just a coincidence.
"Of course, I designed the bomb-dropping system, and I still intend to fly the airship back - anyway, let's experiment first, and if we can take off successfully, we'll win!"
Chloe was very excited, this was her first time studying something that could fly.
The technology tree of this world has not yet reached airplanes, and humans have not yet touched the sky.
The banshees gathered around and together lifted the airship to an open space in the test site, which was right next to the wall, perfect for trying to drop a bomb.
For some reason, the fishmen and the arm monsters were not very enthusiastic about attacking the eastern test site. They seemed to be more interested in the cathedral. No one knew what attracted them.
This airship is a rigid airship with a wooden frame and a layer of skin on the outside.
The airship is equipped with independent airbags inside, so even if some of the airbags leak, the airship will not fall directly.
Originally, Hughes considered using metal, such as steel, to make the frame, but the weight was too high and it could only be used on large airships. If a lightweight metal such as aluminum was used, the production would not be able to keep up.
Aluminum is a very special metal. It is very difficult to obtain if it is not prepared by electrolysis. If you try to electrolyze aluminum, it requires a lot of electricity.
Power plants and power facilities need to be built simultaneously. The island’s technology tree is still some distance away from this step, so it has to be discontinued with regret.
Steel also has its advantages. At least there is no need to worry about its strength, and it is also quite easy to obtain. Chloe also said that after the test flight of the airship is successful, she will start to manufacture large airships.
The banshees set up the airship and poured hydrogen into it. The preparation of this gas was not difficult. Castel had a lot of sulfur ores, and by modifying the sulfuric acid production line, it should not be a problem to prepare a small amount of hydrogen.
The several steam bags that were brought in gradually deflated, and the balloon of the airship gradually rose up, no longer needing the banshees to hold it up.
Chloe and Nini discussed for a while, then Chloe lowered her head and activated [Self-binding], and Zeus also shared the vision.
He had long been accustomed to this kind of high-altitude view from above, but it was very novel to the banshees. The group chat of the banshees had already been flooded with messages, and the few screenshots they sent up had caused many people to be amazed.
It is estimated that the extraordinary beings of the Fire Moth will be harassed by the Banshee next.
After several people brought the bomb, they hung it in the basket under the airship. Then, following Chloe's instructions, Nini controlled the sea snake and pulled the joystick. After cutting the rope below, the airship flew up swayingly.
"Success!"
"Wow, it really flew up, and it's so big."
“I really want to go up and take a look!”
The banshees began to cheer, looking up at the airship gradually turning into a small dot in the sky, and then they all joined Chloe's perspective, watching the progress of the airship from high above.
"Higher, hey, higher."
"Can you turn it the other way? Yes, just let the propeller on one side turn. Wait, that side is the tail, and the rounder one is the head!"
The view angle was raised. Chloe kept giving instructions to Nini, and Nini also controlled the sea snake to make fine adjustments. Soon, the airship gradually left the top of the eastern test site.
"Speaking of which, where is the gathering place for monsters around here?"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
"It seems to be in the west." Several banshees discussed for a while and replied to Xiu Si: "It is relatively close to the cathedral. I will send a screenshot from the group."
Zeus took a quick look and saw that it was an open space between the cathedral and the eastern test field, where a number of arm monsters were gathered.
The Crusaders don't have any good way to deal with the arm monsters, and mostly rely on throwing explosive packs to solve the problem. This kind of explosive with a fixed fuse is indeed very effective in killing arm monsters, but it is relatively difficult to control. Fortunately, the monsters are large enough and can be used with some difficulty.
We must develop a reliable artillery.
Chloe also noticed that side, and with the cooperation of Nini, the airship flew over there shakily.
Soon, the airship arrived above the gathering point of the monsters, and then slowly descended in altitude.
Some fish people have noticed the airship in the sky. They looked up at it, but there was nothing they could do.
When Chloe was about to drop the bomb, Hughes suddenly received a message from Ash.
"My Lord, why don't we move the airship to another place?"
"Ash? What's wrong?"
Unlike other curious banshees, Ash rarely contacted Zeus on her own initiative, and she participated less frequently in such experiments.
Moreover, she was in the cathedral, responsible for cooperating with the guards of the Crusaders in battle.
"Our cathedral is under attack, and a large number of arm monsters have emerged on the front battlefield, which is a bit tricky."
Hughes zoomed out and saw that the area over there was almost at the limit of Chloe's ability. He turned his view and aimed it over there, then took a deep breath.
This wave of monsters' attack is too exaggerated! ?
