Magic, especially elven magic, is something the elven race excels at. Their racial advantage gives them innately powerful magic, and once they unlock their blessing, they gain magic-related skills.
The combat power of individual elves may not be that high, as they are relatively weak in close combat. But in a team, it's different - elven mages protected by others can directly transform into magic artillery, delivering devastating area attacks against monsters.
Nathaniel also wanted to achieve this. After all, who would want to engage in close combat if they could farm monsters from range? Swinging a weapon one by one is nowhere near as convenient as just moving your fingers from afar.
At this stage, Nathaniel could already do these things using the firearms in his hands. But these firearms needed to be properly magically modified.
First was the magazine. The original magazine for holding bullets now needed to be modified to hold magic stones. Magic stones come in irregular shapes and sizes, with almost no two stones being exactly alike.
The first thing Nathaniel had to do was grind these magic stones into uniform sizes so they could be loaded into the magazine consistently. This wasn't difficult. Nathaniel had tools that could easily grind them, and he quickly ground out a batch of identical magic stone bullets.
Looking at the uniformly shaped and arranged magic stone bullets, Nathaniel nodded with satisfaction. This was the power of industry! The magic stone fragments from the grinding weren't wasted either. They were all collected, as these were all useful materials.
With the magic stone bullets complete, the next step was modifying the guns.
The original firing process of guns used a firing pin to ignite gunpowder. But now, it needed to be changed to strike magic power out of the magic stone bullets for attacks.
This was a very good research topic, and also a rather tricky one.
However, before the wisdom of the Great Gray Wolf King, this topic was not difficult!
'My power of contemplation can crack anything!'
Soon, under the guidance of the Great Gray Wolf King, Nathaniel successfully researched a firing pin that could ignite magic power. After installing the firing pin into the AK-47, this originally live ammunition weapon was transformed into a magic weapon.
When the magic power in one magic bullet was ignited, it could turn into twenty bullets flying out. In other words, a magazine that originally held 30 bullets that could only fire 30 shots now became 600 shots. The ammunition capacity had increased terrifyingly.
Besides the AK, Nathaniel also had two pistols. However, due to weight constraints, the pistols Nathaniel made were Desert Eagles.
After modification, they became magically enhanced versions of the Desert Eagle. If weight wasn't a concern, Nathaniel would have even wanted to modify them into Ebony and Ivory, both magic pistols - that would surely be awesome!
Then there were the high-explosive grenades. The fragments that fell off when grinding the magic stone bullets now found their use. All the fragments were collected and packed into high-explosive grenades, turning the original explosive power of gunpowder plus shrapnel damage into magic power blasts!
Weighing the newly made magic high-explosive grenades in his hand, Nathaniel nodded with satisfaction again. These things were much more useful than magic wands!
For modifying the RPG, Nathaniel initially wanted to turn it into a beam cannon. The original RPG was shouldered and fired a rocket. If the rocket was modified to use magic stones as an energy source, it could directly fire beam cannons.
I've already have arthur face, so having a beam cannon shouldn't be a problem, right?
However, unfortunately, Nathaniel didn't have magic stones that large at the moment, so he had to give up on this idea. Unable to modify the rocket launcher, he could only modify the rockets.
The explosive rockets were changed to use magic stone fragments as filler, causing magic power blasts upon explosion, just like the high-explosive magic grenades.
Then there was the C4, also modified using magic stone fragments. Anyway, everything underwent a certain degree of magical modification.
With the ranged weapons done, next were the melee weapons.
Nathaniel melee weapons consisted of only two daggers, as he really didn't have much use for melee combat. But now with magic weapons, Nathaniel could prepare some different melee weapons for himself.
The daggers were still kept, but they underwent some modifications. From ordinary tactical daggers, they became high-frequency vibration blade daggers, greatly enhancing their cutting and destructive power. As for the power source, it was naturally magic stones.
In addition to the daggers kept for emergencies, Nathaniel also crafted two weapons full of sci-fi boldness.
Cylindrical objects 4 cm in diameter and 20 cm long, with a special button on the side.
Just a light press would cause light to burst forth. That's right, this was a man's romance! You could call them beam sabers, or lightsabers!
They also used magic stones as the power source, directly ejecting magic power while preventing it from dispersing, instead circulating it back after a certain distance.
The ultra-high-speed circulating magic power flow would have terrifying destructive power, like a magic power chainsaw. And the consumption was very low - it didn't need to consume the ejected magic power, only the magic power needed to control and constrain the flow to prevent it from dispersing.
Shhhh--
In the basement, Nathaniel pressed the special button on the handle, and blue light erupted from the hilt, forming a blue cylinder.
Whirr whirr whirr--
Bringing it close to his ear, he could hear the humming sound produced by the ultra-high-speed flow of magic power. With a light swing at the nearby workbench, the metal workbench was directly sliced through, the cut surface even in a state of red-hot melting.
This destructive power - in the dungeon, unless it was some monster with ultra-high magic resistance, nothing could withstand this level of destructive power.
"Excellent!"
Looking at the blue light blade before him, Nathaniel gave his highest praise so far.
Although the damage was high enough and the destructive power strong enough, Nathaniel understood that this lightsaber still had shortcomings.
For example, its power source - because it used magic stones as the power source, its magic power consumption was very fast. According to Nathaniel design, one magic stone battery could only provide three minutes of lightsaber operation time.
Once used up, the battery would need to be replaced. However, Nathaniel had made some arrangements for this.
For instance, he carved the magic stones serving as batteries to be exactly the same size as magic bullets, so the batteries were directly interchangeable with magic bullets. After all, Nathaniel knew that the most universal things were the most practical.
Turning off the lightsaber and placing the hilt on the workbench, Nathaniel looked at the various magically modified weapons spread across the workbench and felt full of anticipation for his upcoming dungeon adventures.
Gentlemen, the times have become even more terrifying!
