Chapter 167 Good face

"You want to create a training spear between a spear and a short spear - isn't that a spear? Well? This length is between a spear and a spear? Young man, do you think you are very smart?"

Dagon tilted his head slightly and looked at the Jiangu people in front of him in confusion. His name is Koul, he calls himself a forging master. He is currently in charge of the student equipment office of the elite academy run by the elves. Mar En is his subordinate.

The Student Equipment Department has a regulation that all new forging needs must be approved by the masters of their respective races of craftsmen, and Koul is responsible for the business of the Jiangu people. He grabbed his beard and shook his head. "Young man, this thing is not necessary. Either you use a spear or you use a spear, these two are enough."

Dagon shook his head firmly. "I want this length and diameter, as well as weight requirements, and I am used to training like this."

"Okay, anyway, you spend money, this thing is not difficult." Koul shook the bell, called Marne over, and said to him: "This kid wants to build a pole, it's not interesting to do it, you'll do it."

"Ah? It's me again? My combat skill guard hasn't finished yet..."

Koul frowned and stared at the table with three combos, shouting: "Your martial arts guards, martial arts guards? Is it useful to think about making something new all day long? You are too arrogant and always think that your wisdom is higher than the sum of all the craftsmen of the Jiangu clan! Shut your mouth and complete this simple task. It's just some hardcore, with cloth on the front and model weapons, do you understand?"

"Okay..." Mar En snorted and his head turned to the side.

"Master Coul," said Dagon: "Because of training, I also have to make face armor to prevent sticks from being poked into the eyes. It's very simple, because it needs to be customized because it needs to be matched with the shape of the helmet."

"Mar and Nephew, I did it together, and it won't take much time. This model equipment will not be approved by me in the future, and it will be a waste of time. I will continue to pray to the gods!"

After leaving Kool's office, Dagon and Marn looked at each other, then quickly calmed down their smiles, and went to the workshop one after another. At this time, there was no one around, so Marn asked Dagon what they wanted for these model sticks.

"Of course it is used to train martial arts," said Dagon. "When training martial arts, you can't imagine it out of thin air. Simple strength and speed training do not improve me much, so I want to set up imaginary enemies in the room. It's about the pendulum, and I can practice dodging and observing all directions."

Mar En thought for a moment, and then he painted the scene in his mind. An iron rod was hanging on the rope that swung back and forth, attacking from Dagon in the center of all directions. He had to observe all directions and dodge back and forth. "But the sticks would bump into each other and entangle, so how do you train next?"

"I lose if the sticks collide or entangle." In order not to expose the tactics of the No. 15 pit group, Dagon could only continue to cover up. "It's not difficult to dodge. What can really improve me is control over the scene. For example..."

At this time, it was Marxon who felt uncomfortable. He waved his hands repeatedly and said, "Stop talking, these must be taught by Tormond, right? He is a weapon master, and you are also a good young man. I believe in your training method. Don't just talk about this in the future, so as not to be learned."

"Uncle Ma En, I believe you. Besides, this is not a great thing, don't worry."

"It's better to say less than more. I'm also blaming me. I feel kind to you when I see you, and then I'll talk more." Mar En pulled his beard and said, "I think the parameters of your stick are very simple. Just pinch a mold and cast it first, and then beat it. Do you still need quenching?"

"It doesn't need it, all you need is length, shape and weight. If possible, install a ring in the middle of about one quarter and the middle to facilitate me to wear the rope."

"Okay, this is very simple. If you start working now, it will be fine in the evening." Maren said: "Let's talk about your facial armor, what shape do you want?"

Dagon took out the parchment from his arms and unfolded the parchment and pointed the figures on it to Maren. At first, Maren felt that the style of the face armor showed a strange look. After all, the big face plate, thick skin, high straight nose bridge and small hole eyes were more like a funny mask. But as Dagon explained, he gradually realized the design concept of this face armor and began to be secretly shocked.

"The armor for facial arrows... neigh, if it can be done, this is a good thing." Maren said: "Anti-piercing has always been the main problem that facial armor needs to face, and it is even more important than armor-breaking hammers."

Dagon nodded and said, "Yes! Arrows can be fired from a distance, weapons such as armor-breaking hammers cannot be fired, and only melee combat can be used. Whether melee combat can be prevented is not in the face armor, but in the martial arts."

"There have always been people who use Jiangu clan to create anti-arrow armor, but if the material is too thick, it cannot be seen. If the weight exceeds a certain limit, it will cause a comprehensive disadvantage. Not to mention the field of vision, the center of gravity of the head cannot be straightened, and the neck cannot bear that weight at all, let alone more impacts."

"In terms of material, only pure gold can balance protection and weight." Marne said: "Your father, I mean Lord Eiger. He has a pure gold helmet with a face armor on it, which is the style of a petrified lizard. That face armor has good protection ability, but he always feels blocking his sight and can't see the overall situation of the battlefield. I remember that your father, the adoptive father Tormond, has been thinking about this. When he sees others in the infinite maze, he always looks at the helmet."

"Haha, my father is like that," Dagon said. "The original idea of ​​this design was indeed what my father said."

"Okay, if you say this, I think this armor can be achieved. The main thing that limits the arrow armor has always been limited is not the material, but the design and structure. I see that you have a chance, at least its general direction is the right one. Now it looks like this small hole eye is actually a highlight. Why do you become more and more cute as you look at it?"

Dargon tugged at his beard and could only respond with a smile. The word "cute" is not suitable for the face armor. Generally, the more ferocious the face armor, the better. The more powerful the momentum, the more timid the enemy can make it. And so on... it seems...

"Uncle Ma En, can you modify other places except your nose and eyes and make expressions?"

"Are you underestimating me? You have to ask such a simple thing?" Mar En pretended to be angry, actually snorted, and said, "What expression do you want? The fangs and blood tongue I made were widely praised, and everyone said they were vivid."

"Funny expressions. They make people laugh at the sight. The more funny the better, the better. The funniest thing is that they cannot concentrate." Dagon said: "On the battlefield, the meaning of being hideous or not is not very good. Think about it, everyone's heads and faces are covered with blood, and there may be other people's intestines and eyeballs on their shoulders. There is no difference between this armor being vicious or not. But what effect will a person with bloody but a funny expression have? "

Marx and Eng had a cold war, and he thought of many words, such as perverts, psychopaths, madmen... none of them were good words. Make a funny face? What kind of strange ideas are this?

"On the battlefield, whoever laughs, whoever removes his strength will suffer." Dagon further elaborated on his thoughts and said, "For example, I wear a mask and I grit my teeth. For me, my hideousness is enough. At this time, if there is a face armor, the opponent is actually the same. But my face armor makes the opponent laugh, and I can't see it. The face armor is still full of hideousness behind the face armor. Isn't this also an advantage?"

"I laughed to death on the other side?" Mar En began to laugh when he thought about the scene. "Well, yes, haha, that's it. If you have a weird and funny face, coupled with a particularly nervous body language, the person on the other side will definitely feel uncomfortable. How did you come up with this idea?"

"You said the small holes and eyes of the face armor are cute, and this adjective inspired me." Dagon said: "There are two problems now. One is how good it is to defend against arrows, and the second is how it is to be more funny."

Marne sat down and thought carefully while pulling his beard. He said: "The general direction of the anti-arrow structure is correct. Just do more tests, leave this to me. I see you have provided some angle numbers, which is what Tormond said?"

These were calculated by Dagon himself, and there was also the help of Reed. "Yes, even if these numbers are not the best, they should be not far behind. It would be great to make a batch of them first, which can play a basic role. It is impossible not to give arrows at all, right? Apart from bows and arrows, don't forget that there are heavy crossbows."

"I can't forget! The child's mouth is not light or heavy..." Ma En cursed gently, and his love and happiness are heavy. "As for expressions, I have an idea. Do you still remember the dwarf mentor Chihoro Dongdong I mentioned to you? He often arranges various illusions to simulate various human expressions and movements, vividly. He should know the most about what kind of expressions are the most funny and can make people laugh."

"Do you want to ask him for help?" Dagon thought for a while and nodded, "It's okay, you must find a professional to do professional things. But don't say that this is used on the face armor, find another reason."

"Well, don't worry, I have a solution." Marne said: "Since I mention him, I'll just say it to you. Sorry, Chihoro was not convinced. He said he was very busy and didn't want to teach you about spells and basic quality assessments."

"It's okay, I just came here and I still have time. And I'm going to go to the priest's magic class to listen to the class now, and there are also magical things there, which can be made up for the lessons. As for martial arts, you don't have to worry about me."

"That's right." Mar En said: "Since it's decided, I'll start construction now. Come and help me. You can do basic casting, right?"

"I understand a little bit." Dagon said: "I remember everything, but I didn't have the chance to practice it."
