Punching needle, needle picker, the next one is...screwdriver. Square rogue was fumbled among the piles of parts on the wooden table, finding what he wanted. A half-made clockwork fairy was lying in his left glove. The copper shell had not been closed yet, and the gears and escapement mechanism inside were exposed to the air.

If you look closely, you will find that this clockwork fairy is much more complicated than an ordinary one. Where the usual "communication-type" (ii)-type clockwork fairy is installed with a communication crystal, it is a complex mechanical structure - a set of bore-turning devices, which can accommodate lead bullets of seven millimeters in diameter, a total of six rounds, and a rifled iron pipe about two inches long connected to it.

This is a clockwork fairy made by Fang Yu himself based on Arquette's drawings. Of course, it was directly improved on the ii-type clockwork fairy. Some details have not been polished and look very rough. One of the main problems of this clockwork fairy is that it is overweight. The combined weight of the rotating structure and the bullet exceeds 220 grams, which is nearly 130% of the weight that ordinary ii-type clockwork fairy can carry.

Although generally speaking, the power of flexible configuration will leave room for power, so this combat fairy can still fly, but the maneuverability, speed and maneuverability are reduced.

He was carefully screwing down the screws on both sides with a screwdriver and putting them into the small box beside him. In the eyes of others, the work of a craftsman is fantastic, but the expert's opinion is that the first priority is meticulous and serious.

Fang Yu used a needle picker to remove an ear needle, breathed a sigh of relief, and pinned the needle on the thick collar of his alchemist's robe with his backhand - under the shining golden cross star - looking up, a group of magnifying glasses composed of multiple lenses, covering half of the boy's somewhat pretty face.

He pushed a magnifying barrel away to prevent it from obscuring the system interface.

He raised his head and took a look at the properties on the interface.

The basic attributes are not much different from ordinary clockwork fairies, but the total weight is close to one pound of Taria, 550 grams, and it is not easy to say in the dexterity of this level of construction.

At the beginning of the design, after reading Arquette's design drawings, he understood that the primary problem of fighting fairies is weight loss; but this six-bore wheel structure has almost reached the extreme under his current craftsmanship level. If you want to further reduce weight, you need to make further progress in materials and craftsmanship unless you compromise on power.

But the attack power is only 23-31, which is mainly the lethality of the bullet. Like all firearms, it has 50% armor-piercing attributes within the effective range. However, the effective range of this simple shooting device is actually very close, only less than twenty feet.

When Fang Zhu uses it himself, he basically shoots close to the fire.

This power is already very small. No matter how small it is, it is a toy, and it loses its meaning as a weapon. Materials are related to cost, and craftsmanship is related to level and skills, and these are not things that can be improved in a short period of time.

What's more, even if you lose weight further, 220 grams is already very light, and there is not much room for continued downward movement.

Simply put, this combat fairy transformed by the ii-type clockwork fairy has no potential to further improve. He realized that it was time for him to design a special platform for the combat fairy.

Over the past few days, the situation in the southern border, Miss Scape's warning, and the words left by the great magician before leaving all made him realize something.

As His Royal Highness's mission lost clues again, the floating ship was built in an orderly manner, and the matter of Gray Crystal was also done by someone - these days, everyone has rarely been free.

But everyone is not idle.

Everyone is busy converting the cognitive experience they have obtained before into knowledge and skills, and real combat power.

Square leopard is naturally no exception.

With the construction of the Siren, he can now generate a large number of cheap clockwork substitutes such as "gray and white" in battle to fight, which means that the coolie's original clockwork has been transferred, and its manufacturing cost may not be as sensitive as before.

The ‘gray-white’ structure can be regarded as a simple clockwork fairy, but it does not have visual connection capabilities and cannot install explosive crystals - this is because the square leopard cannot realize the complex elemental structure of the explosive crystals, as well as a series of problems such as detonation devices, stabilization devices and closed-loop devices need to be solved urgently - it also has no communication capabilities.

Therefore, after upgrading, the clockwork fairy still needs to continue to have these three types of abilities.

Scouts, contactors, attackers and launch suicide attacks when necessary.

He thought for a while and decided to divide the clockwork fairies into three categories.

The first type is grayish white, which replaces the original "shame" work of the clockwork fairy.

The second type is the Fire Giant Spirit, whose main job is to launch suicide attacks. He only has one requirement for this type of clockwork fairy - that is, it is cheap enough - for this reason he dismantled all unnecessary components, even the heat dissipation components, and there is no need for vision and sound transmission, and even the balance system can be compromised.

It actually has only four necessary parts, core crystal, power, closed-loop device, and explosive crystal.

The redesigned Fire Giant Spirit has excellent effect. Not only is the price only one-third of the original, but after weight loss, the maneuverability, speed and manipulation are further improved. Now Fang Zhu can call it a suicide machine.

The third type is the fighting fairy.

It not only has to undertake the original work of reconnaissance and communication, but also in order to cope with the challenges that may be faced in the future, it may also further strengthen and at the same time enhance its "fighting" capabilities.

This puts forward quite high requirements for craft design. With the original embarrassing ability of square roving, it was naturally impossible to achieve - but with the previous classification preparation, he now has at least one advantage, that is, to a certain extent, no cost can be taken into account.

In this way, there will be another village with dark and bright flowers.

He continued to look down.

The dodge value is 1500. The dodge value of this level is not low, but the word (-50) is marked with eye-catching red characters; it means that because of overweight, the dodge value has received half of the penalty.

Similar to this is maneuverability (-25) and dexterity evaluation (-30). Except for the flight structure without balance attributes, all other agility-related attributes are impaired.

The general Kingfisher 2 main core crystal used by the ii-type clockwork fairy has the typical characteristics of the core crystal designed by Kingfisher Workshop - large magic capacity, low magic output, long overload time, and low overload increase. The 200m magic capacity can be said to be the best among crystals of this order of magnitude, but each Taria knot output (bandwidth) is only one-twentieth, only half of the usual one-twentieth.

It is incomparable to the crystal of the "Lion" clan that Rotao is proud of--

Overload load means that the core output increases by 35% during overload. Kingfisher crystal’s temperature control is extremely excellent, which is also a major feature of this series of crystals. In the overload state, it takes nearly one minute to reach the critical temperature.

One-minute overloading can also be a feature of the Kingfisher system. Although many people jokingly say that the 35% increase in overload is lukewarm and cannot be considered overload at all. But this cannot change it, and there are still many who prefer this, so they choose this series of crystals.

Fang Zhu is a loyal believer of Kingfisher Workshop. After getting used to the feeling of overloading for a long time, who would go back to the state of QQ Baba calculating the overload time to live?

The main core crystal is the top priority of a flexible configuration. Whether it is power, visual crystal, sound transmission crystal, or chamber rotation and firing structure, it all requires magic output. The excellent main core crystal determines the battery life, explosive power and maneuverability of a flexible configuration.

Fang Yu looked at this combat fairy and roughly passed on his own needs for this brand new ‘platform’ in his heart.

The new ‘platform’ is pre-designed according to the approximate level of his next-generation magic furnace, the Ed γAE type.

The magic capacity of the magic furnace named Ed βae type reaches 2400m, and the magic output can reach one-third. The performance parameters of the upgraded version of γ type are at least more than three times that of this level.

In other words, even if the part after the decimal point is omitted, the Ed γae magic furnace should be able to reach a capacity of 7200m and a magic output of more than 2000m.

Therefore, the performance level of the main core crystal of the new ‘platform’ can also be improved by three times, especially considering that it has divided the Clockwork Fairy into three categories in the future, and the performance level of the main force ‘battle Fairy’ should be further improved.

The new ‘platform’ should require at least 50% stronger reconnaissance ability than the current one to cope with battlefield environments above level 20. It is best to have some special abilities to make up for the shortcomings of the alchemist’s own reconnaissance skills.

In this way, the original ordinary visual crystal will be eliminated.

He has two choices - one is night vision crystal, which is the invention of the Oshuren - it can enhance visual abilities under dark conditions, and has a bonus equivalent to the level ten reconnaissance skill level in detail.

Basically, when looking for a target hiding under the shelter, its performance can be equivalent to a nightingale of about seventh level.

Compared with professional scouts, this improvement is naturally not enough, but it is also enough to cooperate with the craftsmen's powerful battlefield patrol ability.

This is actually the visual crystal used by the iv-type clockwork fairy "Night Owl".

Another option is to capture crystals.

This crystal mainly targets dynamic targets, and provides the ability to detect a level fifteen scout when tracking dynamic targets - of course, such powerful ability is naturally paid for by paying the price from other aspects.

First, the capturer's field of view is particularly narrow, only half of the usual clockwork fairies - about 180 degrees to about 90 degrees. Of course, the narrow field of view can be compensated by multiple clockwork fairies, which is not a big problem for square leopards.

But another problem is that the requirements for magic output by capturing crystals are very strict. Just a visual crystal requires 25m of magic output per tower. If you count other systems, the magic output must be at least 50m.

This is far more than three times the original magic output of 10m per tower.

Even though he had already preset a certain margin, it was not used like this.

So Fang Yu thought about it for a while and finally chose the Night Owl Crystal.

Then there is the attack system.

This is simple, increasing the killing of the firearm - nothing more than improving bullets, enchantments, or replacing more powerful firing crystals.

Fang Zhu chose the simplest and most crude method, and directly replaced the firing crystal of the seven-type lion hand gun for the firing device. The powerful firing crystal is equivalent to adding more ‘firing medicine’ to the bullet, thereby increasing the bullet’s bore out speed and kinetic energy to kill.

After replacing the crystal, the bullet must be gained by replacing the original small-power lead bullet with the standard bullet of the seven-type lion hand gun.

The attack power instantly jumped from the original 22-31 to 47-63, more than doubled.

It can be said that from the level where the original level of killing armorless and unprotected targets can only be used to kill steel plates within approximately its effective range (60 feet).

Of course, Aitalia is not the earth.

On Earth, most people are armor-free targets, but in Aitalia, the protection level of a heavy knight about level 14 (the average level of ordinary guards) is generally close to the level of the first-level bulletproof insert on Earth compared to firearms.

This level of puncture damage has little effect on this type of target, and it can only be achieved by quantity.

But of course, the upgraded combat system is much better than the original "small water gun". Moreover, the protection methods such as magic shields generally do not reduce damage and have higher attack power. When attacking targets such as spellcasters, it will be faster to penetrate the magic shield.

After the Clockwork Fairy's "machine cannon" was amplified, Fang Yu also abandoned the bulky but simple rotary structure and used a more complex ammunition compartment-type ammunition supply structure. In order to balance, he designed the ammunition compartment into a ring with a built-in spring, which surrounds the filler for a while - an air-cooled radiator can be stuffed in the middle.

This system is much more complex than the original structure, but it is because it is lightweight and weighs one third lighter than the rotary chamber structure in the first plan. In the end, the weight of the entire "machine cannon" is less than three tower pounds, which is close to 15 kilograms.

Moreover, the ammunition capacity has reached 14 rounds, which is more than doubled. The only disadvantage is that the ammunition supply machine will occasionally get stuck.

However, the "machine cannon" after amplification is still more than several times the weight of the original system.

This means that the load bearing of the platform itself must also be optimized and upgraded.

The easiest way is to upgrade the power system.

So, using the design idea of ​​adding water to the surface and adding water to the surface, Fang Zhu simply and roughly upgraded the original two pairs of wings of the clockwork fairy to four pairs, and the main core crystal also upgraded the (gray) Kingfisher aae type from the original Kingfisher two-type.

This crystal was not originally used for flexible configurations of the Clockwork Fairy. It is used in larger configurations, such as the Annihilation type flight configuration. Therefore, in order to accommodate this main core crystal, the crystal warehouse has also expanded the number one.

Correspondingly, it is a larger cooling system and a more complex gyro balance system.

In short, after the design was completed, the new "platform" looked larger than before - the original clockwork fairy was now unable to hold it with one hand. However, the design of the craftsman is by no means as simple as amplifying the proportion. Considering the factors of wind resistance and structural strength, Fang Yu finally redesigned the appearance of this "platform".

The battle fairy after completion is actually a bit similar to the "Black Star" he had seen in the Thousand Gate Hall, but he further lengthened the fairy's shell to make it look more similar to the shape of a silver-white shuttle from the side.

Its silver luster is because the square leopard has a layer of mitril silver on the surface in order to further increase the affinity of the clockwork fairy for wind elements and etheric magic.

As it flies, three pairs of thin-winged wings extend out, looking like a silver goblin.

Not only is the speed not slower than the original clockwork fairy, but it is one-third faster, but the mobility has dropped by one level: from perfect to excellent.

For ordinary craftsmen, the operation feel may have a cliff-like decline, but for Fang Zhu, this is not a problem at all - he also controls more complex things, just to provide more computing power.

He doesn't lack—

Fang Yu actually had this idea early in the morning.

After the battle at the Thousand Gate Hall, he realized that the spherical appearance of the clockwork fairy is actually not the best aerodynamic structure in flight. In fact, in addition to having certain advantages in maneuverability in narrow spaces, it is quite moderate and inefficient.
