Chapter 284 Attempt
"Tube acceleration?"
When Mo Lan thought of pipeline acceleration, the shape of a cannon emerged in his mind.
"Use the compressed fireball as a cannonball and use the impact of the explosion to shoot the fireball out. If all goes well, it can not only ensure the power of the fireball, but also increase the range of the fireball."
Mo Lan thought that the casting distance of a spell depends on the coverage range of the mage's mental power, the self-sustaining ability of the spell itself, and the movement speed of the spell.
If the spell does not lock onto the enemy, the spell's accuracy is also part of the spell's range.
The range of Mo Lan's fireball technique is now about two hundred to three hundred meters.
The area within the one hundred meters covered by mental power is naturally a problem, but once out of the range of mental power, Mo Lan loses the ability to control the spell. The direction of the spell depends entirely on the previous settings. Beyond three hundred meters, the accuracy is not very high, and decreases as the distance increases.
Of course, it doesn't need to be too precise. Generally speaking, the fireball will explode if it passes by Mo Lan. After all, it is a spell model composed of his own mental power. Although he cannot control it, he can still make it explode. At this time, the explosion range is large enough and it can be considered a hit.
"About 300 meters. If they really build a cannon, the power of the fireball will be doubled, the explosion range will be increased, and the range will be increased..."
Mo Lan suddenly realized that the most important thing about the cannon he had envisioned seemed not to be the increased power, but the increased spell range that he had not noticed before.
"If my range is doubled, then I can completely crush mages of the same level, and I can also crush them when attacking a city. When fighting against a knight group, mages are most afraid of the knight group getting close to them.
And doubling the range means we can cast twice as many spells against the Knights..."
Mo Lan smacked his lips.
"Besides, who stipulated that the range of this cannon can only be twice the range of the mage's attack?"
Mo Lan suddenly realized that he seemed to have accidentally reduced the enemy's dimension again.
"Sure enough, only by coming out can you discover something."
Mo Lan smashed the core of the last third-level lava beast. This time he did not leave, but stopped here. He came to the corpse of a fourth-level lava beast and knocked off the fourth-level red rock on its body. These were all fourth-level elemental stones with superior properties.
What is the fourth-order elemental stone? This is a rough classification of elemental stones.
Originally, these elemental stones were not easy to classify because it was difficult to find the corresponding standards. It was not until the discovery of different grades of red rock on lava beasts of different grades that people thought of using the grade standard of red rock as the standard for classifying elemental stones.
After much research, a rough standard for elemental stones from level one to four was developed, announced to the outside world and put into use.
"Let's try red rock first. Although red rock lacks toughness, it is hard enough to withstand an explosion in a short period of time without cracks."
After finding the materials, Mo Lan began to think about how to provide power for the fireball technique.
"Using the explosion of a low-level fireball as power?"
Mo Lan pondered for a moment and then shook his head.
"If the fireball is too powerful, the low power will be too small. But if the power is too strong, it will either shatter the six-ring fireball spell and make it ineffective, or cause the six-ring fireball spell to explode...hiss, that would be a wonderful scene.
I succeeded in killing myself again. Wait, why again? I haven’t killed myself in a long time.
Mo Lan looked at the red rock in front of him and fell into deep thought.
"However... increasing the stability of the Six-Ring Fireball Technique and finding the right firing force may not be a bad idea."
An idea came to Mo Lan's mind.
"The first thing we can be sure of is that the red rock cannot withstand the explosion of a six-ring fireball, but it should not be a problem for a fourth-level red rock to withstand the explosion of a three-ring fireball."
The ink cartridge in Mo Lan's mind was spinning at high speed, providing a steady stream of powerful computing power for his calculations. After calculating and deducing again and again in his mind and making sure there were no obvious major problems, Mo Lan got started.
"Hollowing out, the first step is to make a qualified gun barrel."
Mo Lan selected a complete piece of red rock that was large enough and began cutting.
"Mechanical Mind!"
"Sharp Technique!"
There is no shortcut for this step. The huge red rock chosen to be the gun barrel was placed horizontally on the ground, and a black steel dagger with gold patterns and blessed with sharpness began the cutting work.
Mo Lan discovered that this black steel dagger with gold patterns, which he had used under the guise of an experiment to maintain its sharpness, was really good, ahem.
With the blessing of sharpness and the property of golden-patterned black steel that becomes sharp spontaneously after being injected with gold elements, it is very easy for Mo Lan to cut the red rock.
The wizard's hand controlled the dagger to continuously cut the red rock, digging a hole smaller than a basketball in it bit by bit, and the hole continued to deepen under the influence of the mechanical mind.
Every cut was extremely standard, and every piece of gravel cut was almost the same size, cut within the set range without any difference.
While working hard to cut the gun barrel by hand, Mo Lan was also thinking about the problem of the powered fireball.
"The fireball exploded, and the force of the explosion was concentrated in one direction, thereby launching the six-ring fireball technique.
Wait, this seems a little familiar..."
A flash of inspiration came to Mo Lan's mind.
"Isn't this the fire resistance ring? If the fireball technique has a considerable amount of explosive power and temperature in addition to the impact force.
The fire-resistance ring itself has converted most of the temperature and explosive power into impact force.
Small power, big impact, what could be more suitable as this driving force than the Fire Resistance Ring?"
Mo Lan immediately decided to use the Fire Resistance Ring.
Mo Lan first accumulated his strength for a moment, and soon, a fireball with six rings of power appeared in his hand.
Throw out a fireball, and a ring of fire resistance spreads behind it.
"puff!"
The six-ring fireball passed through the middle of the resistance fire ring, with only the trajectory shifted. If Mo Lan had released it normally before, and the fireball was fast enough and powerful enough, there would not be any angle deviation.
This was within Mo Lan's expectations. It was destined. Otherwise, what was the use of the Six-Ring Fireball Technique? It would be blown away by a gust of wind. Mo Lan was just trying and verifying something.
As time passed, the barrel had been polished. Under Mo Lan's careful polishing, the inside of the barrel was very delicate and very smooth when perceived with mental power.
Next came the strip of red rock in Mo Lan's hand, which he polished into the shape of a cannonball bit by bit.
Mo Lan knew very well that the six-ring fireball technique was very unstable. If the force of resisting the fire ring was too great, it would easily cause an explosion. However, if the force was too small, the same situation would happen again.
In this case , let's add a stable outer shell to the six-ring fireball spell, so that the fire ring does not directly come into contact with the six-ring fireball spell.
