Yin Zidian

Is Magic really just a wish machine?
No! In a universe where Magic truly exists, the ultimate nature of Magic must be as simple and aesthetically pleasing as the laws of physics.
This is the story of a mass-produced magical war tool who learned the ultimate nature of Magic.
But what of it?
Just as birds can fly without understanding aerodynamics, magicians can use Magic without grasping its ultimate nature.
Learning the ultimate nature of Magic doesn't mean the tool can instantly transform into a great magician.
But yearning for knowledge is a human instinct, and curiosity is the primary driving force of human civilization. Even for Magic, which should seemingly defy explanation, humans hope to understand its inherent operational laws.
The pursuit of Magic's ultimate nature requires no reason!
The story in this book takes place in an era where steel and gunpowder dance together.
Here, firearms are on the rise; armor remains the main character; military theory is changing rapidly, with endless innovations in systems and techniques. And this world has something more than ours: Magic.
The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and no one can remain detached from it...

Steel, Explosives, and Spellcasters

Then, by examining the points of impact and firing angles of the two shots, they could calculate the correct firing angle.


Ballistics is a profound field of study, and although currently, there are only some empirical formulas available, it's not something that those muscular simpletons in the infantry or cavalry could learn—Mason thought with a slight pride.


Of course, theoretical calculations are one thing, practical combat still needs a bit of luck...just a bit.


The third shot, carrying Mason's hopes for a successful hit with the most accurately predetermined angle, still missed.


The cannonball screeched out of the barrel and landed far beyond the target.


It was somewhat different from the calculations; theoretically, even if it missed, it should have landed closer.


Mason was not discouraged and continued to adjust.


The fourth, fifth, and sixth shots all missed.
