Chapter 790

Su Xiao looked at the metal catapult and dozens of Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles not far away. The volume of the metal catapult was not small, with a length of over six meters and a width of about three meters.

When his palm touched the metal catapult, Su Xiao raised an eyebrow.

Hint: This is war equipment. Before the Tribal Alliance is defeated, this item cannot be stored in the storage space, and ownership cannot be obtained. If the war is won, this item will become spoils of war and can be redeemed using war merits or directly seized.

This thrower was actually a piece of equipment. Unfortunately, it belonged to war equipment, and ownership could not be obtained before it was converted into spoils of war.

And wanting to load this thing required lv. 0 or higher Throwing Equipment Proficiency. Su Xiao hadn't even heard of this kind of skill, let alone mastered it.

Although it couldn't be loaded, it didn't mean Su Xiao couldn't use this thing to fire Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles, after all, it was already loaded.

Su Xiao wouldn't fire this thing for the time being, but picked up a Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle on the ground. This thing might also be war equipment. If that was the case, he couldn't take even one away. The reason was simple: he couldn't carry this thing with him during battle. That would be fancy suicide. It would be funny if the enemy broke the incendiary bottle.

Su Xiao checked the attributes of the Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle. As expected, this thing was also war equipment.

After hesitating for a moment, he took a metal syringe and pierced the needle of the syringe into the wooden bottle stopper of the "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle."

Su Xiao was always on guard against this thing suddenly self-igniting. Fortunately, the needle of the metal syringe was very thin, and the Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle didn't show much reaction.

Using the metal syringe to extract some green phosphorus solution, this thing was an alchemical product. If he had time, Su Xiao could study it. After all, his alchemy level wasn't low. If he was lucky, he might be able to replicate it.

Dismantling the metal syringe, he took out a glass tube the length of a little finger from inside. The glass tube was filled with green phosphorus solution. The glass tube was high-strength glass, and its hardness could rival metal, so carrying it with him was no problem. Moreover, the green phosphorus solution inside was very little, so even if it was broken, he could immediately tear off the clothes that touched the green phosphorus solution.

Sky-high shouts of battle came from behind Su Xiao. The location where he was was a bit remote, near a small forest, and the tribal army hadn't noticed him for the time being.

As for why the "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle Thrower" was placed in such a remote place, the reason was simple: to reduce the possibility of being discovered by the Night Elf tribe.

The Night Elf tribe was a special unit of the Empire, usually scouts or assassins, and over 70% of them were female. The Night Elf tribe was born with a kind of ability: their skin and hair could absorb light, thereby achieving long-term invisibility. There were rumors that Night Elves spent most of their lives invisible. Female Night Elves were too beautiful and easily aroused the covetousness of male "animals."

These male animals included male humans, male elves of other tribes, male Orcs, male dwarves, male Goblins, and male trolls!

Perhaps only the straightforward giants on the continent wouldn't have evil intentions toward female Night Elves; after all, the size difference was too great.

Night Elf scouts who could be invisible for a long time were the biggest threat to war equipment. Therefore, the tribal side hid the war equipment appropriately and minimized the number of soldiers near the war equipment to avoid attracting the attention of the Night Elves.

Once a Night Elf discovered war equipment, it was useless to have more soldiers nearby. The Night Elf would carry a kind of alchemical corrosive bomb, which had strong corrosiveness to most metals.

It had to be mentioned that a Night Elf could carry at most one or two alchemical corrosive bombs. As for the reason, it was because these invisible scouts couldn't wear clothes.

Night Elves used their skin to absorb light to achieve the invisibility effect. Once they wore clothes, the invisibility effect would drop significantly, and they might even be unable to be invisible.

Imagine beautiful female Night Elves wandering naked near the battlefield, looking for opportunities to assassinate enemy generals or destroy siege equipment.

As for where the Night Elves hid the alchemical corrosive bombs, there weren't many places for naked Night Elves to hide things. Of course, they stuffed them into... don't misunderstand, they just stuffed the alchemical corrosive bombs into their braids and wrapped the alchemical corrosive bombs with their hair.

Precisely because of the existence of Night Elves, there were very few soldiers near this war equipment, leaving only a few necessary Goblins, and alchemical traps were set up around. In this way, it could provide fire support and also meant to be bait. Precisely because of this, most Night Elves had to know some superficial alchemy to prevent the tribal army's alchemical traps.

However, Su Xiao directly ignored the nearby alchemical traps; he flew over.

Su Xiao looked at the "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle Thrower." The structure of this thing was very complex, with hundreds of parts of various sizes, and the loading difficulty was extremely high. Fortunately, firing wasn't difficult.

There was a control lever on the thrower. According to Su Xiao's estimation, pulling the control lever should be able to fire the "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle."

Su Xiao took out a rope from the storage space and tied the twenty-five Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles nearby together. Holding the bundle of incendiary bottles, he walked toward the thrower.

There was a two-meter-long throwing rod at the tail of the thrower, and there were five grooves on the throwing rod, in which five Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles were fixed.

Su Xiao tied the bundle of "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles" in his hand to a bottle that had already been loaded.

He considered it this way: first, the thrower and the incendiary bottles couldn't be taken away, so he simply used them all up. The problem was that apart from firing, he knew nothing about the other functions of the thrower, such as distance adjustment, throwing direction, and height, etc.

Since he couldn't adjust it, Su Xiao simply didn't adjust it. Now the thrower had been loaded and could be fired at any time, meaning that the target of this thing was likely the Imperial army.

The weight of five "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles" was of course different from thirty. In Su Xiao's vision, after successfully throwing the "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles," the thirty "Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottles" would fall into the tribal army due to the weight. Even if they didn't fall, he had other remedial means, but it would reduce the time the green phosphorus fire burned the enemies.

A white object was stuck on the Green Phosphorus Fire Incendiary Bottle. This was an alchemical bomb, which was Su Xiao's backup means.

Grabbing the control lever on the thrower, Su Xiao hoped to throw it smoothly. A successful throw meant a large amount of war merit.
