Landmines, explosive firearms buried on the ground or laid on the ground, are an inexpensive defensive weapon.To be honest, the level of technical requirements for the mine is not high, Dawn City has long had the ability to create it, but Owen does not want to use this weapon very much.The reason is simple: once a mine is planted in an area, that area is a minefield, and it is necessary to remove them one by one after the battle, which is a troublesome and dangerous task.Owen had heard Winster mention that the Earth Alliance had previously used a large number of mines in a large-scale war.In the decades since the end of the war, many places have been deeply disturbed, and every year civilians or deminers have been accidentally injured or even killed by previously planted mines.Although demining has been ongoing since the end of the war, it is an extremely time-consuming and dangerous undertaking that takes a long time to completely eliminate all mined areas.However, if the Third Holy War does break out, Owen will have to use all means to defeat the undead army of the Kaztu, even if it is the use of mines.A rocket is an ammunition propelled by a rocket engine, which is usually composed of three parts: a warhead, a rocket engine and a stabilizer.Because the rocket is equipped with a self-propelled device, its launch device is less forced, so it can be launched in multiple tubes.That's what Owen values most.Artillery can only fire shells one by one, while MLRS can fire multiple rockets at a time, forming a dense network of firepower, which is a powerful weapon of surface destruction.Compared with body-barreled artillery of the same caliber, MLRS have the advantages of high power, fierce firepower, and good maneuverability.If a large number of undead monsters attack from the north, you can use rockets to inflict massive damage on them.In addition to this, rockets can also be mounted on fighter jets and launched from the air to attack targets on the ground.There are also rockets for individual use, which are lighter and more flexible.Moreover, guidance technology was developed later, and rockets combined with guidance technology were the so-called missiles, and the accuracy of hitting was greatly improved, and they were able to effectively hit point targets.Of course, among the five new weapons and equipment, the automatic rifle and shotgun are prioritized first, and they can be used in the Popang Empire next year, and the other three weapons are not so urgent and can be remanufactured later.After introducing the new weaponry, Geeta carefully put away the five design drawings and solemnly assured Owen."
Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely complete the task you have assigned.""
Hmm."
Owen nodded, "You can step back." ”"Yes, Your Majesty."
Geeta was ordered to retire.After the other party left, Owen got up and left his seat, went to the window, and looked out at the snow through the window.I hope that the second joint investigation team will be able to gain something from going north to the Make Desert this time.…… A month has passed.During this period, there was no fighting on the northern wall, and the inhabitants of Dawn City continued to live as usual, doing whatever they wanted, and everything seemed so peaceful.No one knows that beneath this tranquility lies a huge crisis.It was also at this time that the second joint investigation team successfully completed the investigation mission and returned from the Maka Desert.As soon as they went back and forth, the captain of the second team hurriedly reported to Owen the results of their investigation in the depths of the Mark's Great Desert.Owen was a little disappointed by the results, and the survey still yielded little useful results.On the way deep into the Mak's Great Desert, the second joint investigation team was not attacked by the undead monsters, and it seems that they really disappeared en masse.You know, when the first joint investigation was launched this summer, the investigation team was attacked by undead monsters, and it was really unusual that winter should be their active period, but they didn't even touch one.Upon arriving in the depths of the Mark's Great Desert, Joint Investigation Team 2 discovers that the mysterious fog has vanished, just as Winnie had reported.At this point, the captain of the second team originally wanted to lead the team to continue north and investigate the reason for the disappearance of the fog.However, the further north I went, the heavier the wind and snow blew, and I couldn't travel at all.In addition, the limited supplies they carried could not support them to stay in the Maka Desert for too long, so the captain had to give up continuing north and lead the team back."
yes, I see."
Although there was some disappointment, Owen did not show it on his face, after all, the investigation team had done their best."
It's been a hard month for you, go back and have a good rest.""
Yes, Your Majesty."
After the captain of the second team exited the tent, Owen turned his head to look at Viscount Jarvis on the side and asked, "I remember that there is a blank area further north of the Marco Desert, what is that place?"
”"Back to Your Majesty, that's the Arctic Ice Field."
Viscount Jarvis replied: "For as long as history is kept, the Far North Ice Sheet has been a frozen world, and no matter how the seasons change, it is always windy and snowy.It is also the most magical place on the continent, and there are often magical turbulences, making it extremely uninhabitable.As a result, humans hardly set foot in the Far North Ice Sheet and know very little about that place. ”The reason why Viscount Jarvis knew some information about the Far North Ice Fields was because he had a lot of dealings with the Templars, all of which he learned in the course of his dealings.The Holy Cult of Caleb has sent teams deep into the Mak's Great Desert many times to carry out search missions, and has also investigated the Arctic Ice Sheet by the way, but that place is too dangerous, and they have not investigated too deeply.The Frozen World?
Combined with the characteristics of the undead monster that likes cold and heat, Owen suddenly had a guess in his heart."
Viscount Jarvis, you say, are Katztu and his undead army hiding in the Far North Ice Field?""
Your Majesty, the Holy Sect of Caleb had this kind of speculation before, and they later denied it."
Viscount Jarvis said."
Denied?"
Owen couldn't figure it out, and hurriedly asked, "Why?"
”"Because the Caleb Holy Sect once found several frozen undead monsters on the edge of the Arctic Ice Field, and after going forward to investigate, it was found that their magic cores had been destroyed."
Viscount Jarvis said slowly, "So, they came to the conclusion that the undead monsters could not survive in the Arctic Ice Field, and it was impossible for the Katztus to hide there. ”"Isn't that right?!"
After listening to Viscount Jarvis's explanation, Owen not only did not get a solution, but became even more confused."
Don't undead like cold environments?
Why can't they survive on the Arctic Ice Sheet?
”"Your Majesty, the cold on the Far North Ice Sheet is not the same as the cold on our side in winter."
In this regard, Viscount Jarvis explained: "It is a continuous magical attack that can cause damage to the magic core of undead monsters. ”.
