Legendary Armament Canon

Chapter 302: A Cloud-Piercing Arrow, Thousands of Troops Come to Meet (1)

“Your Highness, what you want is a whistling arrow?”

In the forging room of the Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch, Shi Songtao listened to Zhou Shu’s description.

“That’s one way to describe it.” Zhou Shu nodded. “Can you do it?”

“It’s not a big problem.” Shi Songtao nodded. “In the past, there were standard whistling arrows in the Great Xia army. When they were shot into the sky, they made a whistling sound.”

“Standard whistling arrows won’t work.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “I’ve learned about Great Xia’s standard bow and arrow. It can be shot at most three hundred paces ahead. The whistling arrow I want must be able to be shot at least one thousand paces away!

“Otherwise, they won’t be of any use.”

In the outside world, sentries could be set up at intervals.

In that case, ordinary whistling arrows were enough for use.

But here, the army was scattered everywhere, and no one knew how far apart they were from each other.

If the arrow could only go as far as 300 paces away, the distant army might not even notice the sound of the arrow.

“Your Highness, a ranked arrow…” Shi Songtao was surprised. There were such things, but they were too rare.

Arrows themselves were consumables. Who would be willing to use ranked weapons as consumables?

Shi Songtao was about to say that the construction cost would be too expensive when he saw Zhou Shu point outside.

Yes, they were expensive to build, but it wasn’t a big problem for them now.

There was a mountain of forging materials outside. There was no need to worry about not having enough.

Moreover, there were hundreds of demonic beast miners digging day and night. Their forging materials would only increase.

“A ranked sounding arrow, I’m not sure it will work,” Shi Songtao said nervously.

Developing a ranked weapon was a skill. Before it was forged, no one could guarantee its success.

“I’m not asking you to develop it yourself. There’s still me,” Zhou Shu said. “The requirements for this arrow are very simple. First, the range must be far. Second, the sound must be loud enough.

“Just design two star paths inside it, one for acceleration and one for motion.

“Let’s see what forging materials are used to cast its body…”

One was the current number one weapon forging genius of Great Xia, and the other was the former number one weapon forging genius of Great Xia. It wasn’t difficult for the two of them to work together to develop an ordinary ranked arrow.

Without pursuing lethality, they quickly completed the research and development work.

This was also because they didn’t have to worry about forging materials at all. They could test as much as they wanted.

After another few days, they finally succeeded in forging an arrow that met Zhou Shu’s requirements.

Shi Songtao looked at the arrow, his face full of excitement. “Your Highness, after this arrow is shot, it can automatically ride the wind. The range can reach up to three thousand paces!”

He didn’t expect the effect of the arrow to be so heaven-defying.

It was a pity its lethality was neglected in its pursuit of range.

Otherwise, it would definitely be shocking if its lethality could be maintained for a distance of 3,000 paces.

Even so, it was shocking enough now.

Zhou Shu shook his head, not looking too excited.

Shi Songtao was extremely impressed.?As expected of His Highness, he’s constantly pursuing perfection. He isn’t satisfied with this arrow.

What he didn’t know was that Zhou Shu shook his head because he found that the Legendary Armament Canon didn’t record this arrow!

He thought about it and suddenly understood.

Whether or not the Legendary Armament Canon included a weapon seemed to be related to the sense of belonging of the weapon.

Only when the ownership of the weapon or the secret forging formula belonged to him would the Legendary Armament Canon record it.

From the looks of it, the reason why the Legendary Armament Canon was unable to record the Imperial Cauldron was not only because of its lack of strength but also because of the ownership.

He and Shi Songtao had developed this arrow together. The ownership belonged to the two of them.

Therefore, it was understandable that it wasn’t included in the Legendary Armament Canon.

“It’s not difficult to forge this arrow. You can forge the body, and I’ll set the star paths. It won’t be a problem to forge two in a day,” Zhou Shu said.

How long it took to forge ranked weapons depended on the situation.

This arrow was relatively easy to forge.

Of course, this was mainly because Zhou Shu and Shi Songtao were too good.

Ordinary Forging Masters would probably not be able to forge at this speed.

But Zhou Shu was still not satisfied.

If he wanted to equip Mei Wushang and the others with ten arrows, he would need at least three hundred for more than thirty people.

At a rate of two arrows a day, it would take at least five to six months to complete.

The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly. How could they wait for five to six months?!

Unfortunately, there were only two Forging Masters, Zhou Shu and Shi Songtao, in Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch. Even if he wanted to increase the forging speed, there was nothing he could do for the time being.

In that case, he could only reduce the rations for Mei Wushang and the others to shorten the time!

Zhou Shu and Shi Songtao hardly slept or rested. In the forging room, the clanking sounds were endless.

Finally, on the tenth day, they walked out of the forging room.

Mei Wushang and the others were ready to go.

Zhou Shu asked Shi Songtao to distribute the arrows they had forged to Mei Wushang and the others.

“Keep these arrows safe. If you find the Great Xia army and encounter any danger, you can shoot them into the air.”
