Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 85:
"But, why?" Sui Xiong pondered for a while, but still didn't understand why the new mass-produced breastplate, which looked so ordinary, was able to withstand the cleavage operation. In the end, he was puzzled and had to change it temporarily. Vocational elementary school students, curiously asking questions.
The **** of runes smiled, and stroked his long white beard like an old man in the school, and said: "The key to the problem lies in'uniformity'. The big split is essentially looking for defects in the target structure. , And then destroy it. But in the face of uniform texture, it can't exert its power. This has been known for a long time-for example, it can be blocked by using a uniform crystal to form a shield. "
Sui Xiong blinked, he really didn't know this.
Not only he doesn't know, but most of the other gods don't know, maybe it's the result of the dwarf gods' own research, right?
"And this armor? Its biggest feature is uniformity." The Rune God said, "It's amazing! Its uniformity is almost crystal-like... I never thought that metal can also be used. Even to this point!"
Sui Xiong guessed the reason-the steel ingot used to make this armor came from the molten iron flowing out of the blast furnace. The molten iron needs to be stirred repeatedly during the production process, so the texture will be more uniform. Compared with the steel produced by other methods, its texture is naturally much more uniform.
"Unfortunately, the uniformity of this thing is not enough." The Rune God said with some regret, "If its texture can be more uniform, the power of the big cracking technique will not be entrenched on it, and it will destroy the armor. The part where the pieces are connected. But the moment it hits it, it will dissipate directly because there is no "unevenness" enough to hold it."
Sui Xiong nodded slightly, but his eyes lit up.
Want to make it more uniform? It's not impossible. The iron ingot produced from the blast furnace for the first time is returned to the furnace for the second time, and the second blast furnace is used to strengthen the stirring, and then the impurities are removed as much as possible, which will surely make the material more uniform.
As for the second blast furnace, he can use magic power to heat it, or use electric heating...Anyway, there are many ways to use steel that has been smelted.
"It seems that you already have a solution." The **** of runes is so old that he can see Sui Xiong's expression at once, smiled and said, "After you make a new armor, you must let me see Insight!"
"Don't wait long, I can do it now." Sui Xiong smiled, and his tentacles rolled up the armor pieces that had fallen to the ground due to the damage of the connection part, threw them into the air, and suspended them with supernatural power, then Spit out flames and warm them up.
With his vast magical powers, there is no difficulty in burning steel into molten iron. In just a few moments, those armor pieces were no longer in the air, only a mass of molten iron that was burned to the bright red.
Sui Xiong controlled this mass of molten iron with divine power, eliminated unnecessary impurities from it, and finally obtained a mass of molten iron that did not seem to make much difference.
He condensed the molten iron again and turned it into a new piece of armor. Because it was just an experiment, he didn't bother to make it into armor, but simply made it into the shape of a shield.
When this thing cooled down, without the **** of runes, Sui Xiong himself threw a big cracking technique at it.
The big splitting technique that has not been strengthened by divine power falls on that "shield", and it instantly disperses, not even a bit remains on it.
It's exactly the same as the situation predicted by the Rune God!
"It's amazing! I never thought that there would be such a thing in the world!" The Rune God said emotionally, "It's incredible that the iron and steel can be evened enough to dissipate the big cracking technique!"
Sui Xiong also nodded, and rolled up the "shield" with his tentacles, then his brow wrinkled in an instant, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "It's getting softer?"
"What?" For a moment, the **** of runes took the "shield" that Sui Xiong handed over, squeezed, knocked, and his snow-white eyebrows wrinkled, "Weird, how could it become soft?"
To be honest, the degree of softening is not particularly significant. And even if it becomes soft, it is at least much stronger than wood or something. But how keen the perception of the two gods is, even the slightest difference can't be concealed from them. Not to mention the degree of softening is quite obvious-roughly, it's like a harder stone has become a slightly softer stone, and no gods should even take action. Any experienced craftsman can feel it. To this difference.
However, why does steel become softer after further removing impurities and becoming more pure?
Sui Xiong and the God of Rune looked at each other, and they didn't understand the reason.
It’s really to blame that Sui Xiong is just an art student, not an engineering student. The hardness of pure iron is lower than that of steel. The former is the most common in life is those magnets, anyone who has played with magnets knows. It is indeed slightly softer than steel knives.
As for why this change occurred, it is necessary to write a paper on metallurgy, not to mention that no one in this world can write it, even if there is such a paper in front of Sui Xiong, facing Sui Xiong would only be dumbfounded by the various symbols representing hardness, strength, temperature and other data, saying, "I know every word, but I can't understand it even in an article."
This episode did not affect the nature of Sui Xiong and the God of Rune. They only thought about it for a while and they came up with a solution to the problem-to make this particularly uniform steel into a thin piece and inlay it on the outside of the armor. , It’s like putting iron sheets on a wooden shield, isn’t it solved!
The strength is provided by the inner layer of steel armor, and the outer layer of iron is responsible for the resistance to the large cracking operation, which is the best of both worlds.
The only downside is that the armor may be...heavier.
"Such an armor, I'm afraid that only strong men can wear it to fight." Sui Xiong estimated it, and said with a wry smile, "After most people wear it, they probably won't even walk fast."
"It's okay, the Hercules is not hard to find." The Rune God said with a smile, "Compared with this kind of armor, it's much easier to find a group of Hercules. If you don't have enough, I will assemble Come in a group. Among us dwarves, most of them are strong men!"
Speaking of this, the two gods coincided with each other and their eyes lit up.
Dwarves are relatively short in stature, which means that their armors use less material and are relatively lighter.
The dwarves are rich in strong men, that is to say, even if the armor is heavier, it is not a problem for them at all.
Doesn’t that mean... this kind of wonderful armor~IndoMTL.com~ is like tailor-made for the dwarves!
Once you put on this kind of armor and add some other protective means, the dwarf's heavy warriors will become a real mobile fortress. The problem of "against magic" that plagued them most in the past will no longer exist!
The **** of runes reacted first, looked around, lowered his voice, and whispered like a thief: "Your Majesty Oscar, during this period of time, is it a happy cooperation?"
Sui Xiong nodded.
"For a long time, our dwarves have never had any disputes with you in the Masked Void Church or the Northwest Republic, right?"
Sui Xiong nodded.
"In this case, are you interested in strengthening our relationship with each other?" The God of Rune tentatively said, "I think there is still a lot of room for us to cooperate..."
Sui Xiong smiled, using his tentacles to compare his thumbs.
"No problem!"
