Chapter 78 (Preview)

Considering the recent situation, I can’t help but anticipate an attack from the empire. In that case, we need to strengthen our defense equipment.

Speaking of defense equipment, there are various types. There are “pitfalls,” “falling rocks,” “catapults,” “wooden barricades,” and also “crossbows” and “cannons”. There seems to be something called a magic laser weapon, but it requires a large amount of materials to create and it seems that special items are also necessary.

The only ones left would be the “crossbow” and the “cannon.”

I checked the required materials.

[Crossbow] [Lv.1]

[Defense Equipment]

[Durability: 200]

[Effect]
Consumes 30 wood, 30 stone, 30 soil, and 10 iron. The number of installations depends on the level. Once installed, it automatically fires “arrows” to intercept enemies.

Level 1: Attack power 10, Range 7, Number of installations 2
Level 3: Attack power 30, Range 7, Number of installations 2
Level 5: Attack power 50, Range 8, Number of installations 4
Level 8: Attack power 80, Range 8, Number of installations 4
Level 10: Attack power 100, Range 9, Number of installations 6

[Cannon] [Lv.1]

[Defense Equipment]

[Durability: 300]

[Effect]
Consumes 50 wood, 50 stone, 50 soil, and 20 iron. The number of installations depends on the level. Once installed, it automatically fires “cannonballs” to intercept enemies.

Level 1: Attack power 20, Range 10, Number of installations 2
Level 3: Attack power 60, Range 10, Number of installations 2
Level 5: Attack power 100, Range 12, Number of installations 4
Level 8: Attack power 150, Range 12, Number of installations 4
Level 10: Attack power 200, Range 15, Number of installations 6

That’s how it looks. Both require a large amount of materials, and the number of installations and attack power vary depending on the level.

Considering the cost, let’s go with the “crossbow” this time.

[Inventory]
Wood x2447
Stone x1079
Soil x8
Iron x122

Currently, there is an overwhelming shortage of soil, so I went out of the house and quickly gathered some in Gale Tulle. Gathering soil is easy since all I have to do is dig the ground.

Soil x8 → Soil x499

Now I can make the “crossbow.” I immediately activate the defense equipement skill and consume 30 wood, 30 stone, 30 soil, and 10 iron.

[Inventory]
Wood x2417
Stone x1049
Soil x469
Iron x112

Now all that’s left is to decide where to install it.

Since the beach is often attacked, let’s choose that area. It’s also close to the house.

I walk a little from the beach to the roadside.

I installed it at the edge of the road.

With this, if a “monster” attack, it will automatically intercept it. If the opponent is a human, it seems that it will target them through the skill “I identify them as an enemy.” Therefore, there should be no accidental shots.

That’s so convenient!

As I was feeling impressed, a monster happened to pass by the beach. It was a Gruen Goblin.

The crossbow takes aim and fires an arrow. This arrow seems to be loaded automatically. It’s an interesting feature, almost like using magical power. I didn’t expect to be able to shoot without making arrows.

The magic arrows fired in rapid succession, piercing the body of the Gruen Goblin. The whole body was skewered by the overwhelming power.

The goblin turned into dust and disappeared.

It dropped an item called “Goblin’s Claw.” …Oh, I can use the crossbow! It automatically defeated that Gruen Goblin. This will definitely be helpful for defense.
