I'm an Aristocrat, but I've Started a Farming System - Chapter 161
c161 Magic Crystal Pistol
Listening to Linn’s words, Harlin couldn’t help but frown, and the expression on her face became unnatural. She always felt that something was wrong. It seemed that there were more and more things about the dark cultists recently.
As the messenger, why didn’t she receive the relevant news?
“Do you suspect it is a dark cultist?” Harlin asked.
“I doubt it, but I’m not sure, so I came here to ask you. I want to know if there are any experiments using humans among the dark cultists?”
“Yes!” Harlem gave an affirmative answer. “I said before that every church is divided into different sects. Among them are organizations that use people to do certain things. They are extremely mysterious. Even if it is a church People don’t necessarily know what they are doing.
However, the people they use are either purchased serfs or dead bodies, and they will never rob an entire town of people unless they are cultists. ”
“Is there any difference between a cultist and a dark cultist?”
“One is unscrupulous and has no teachings, while the other abides by the teachings and will not do anything that crosses the line. Moreover, don’t think that dark cultists are cultists. Sometimes, cultists cultivated by the church are even more terrifying.” Harlin An answer was given, but she didn’t say much on the topic.
“It seems that I can’t stay here any longer. I will help you set up the magic circle and then go see what is going on.”
“Have you recovered?”
“It’s almost recovered.”
“You are not afraid of being hunted down by the clergy again. You also said that the church cultivates cultists. Is it possible? These things are all done by the church. They blame you dark cultists, provoke wars, and start civil strife. If you interfere, If you go in, you will really comply with their plan.”
Harlin was silent for a moment, “I will be careful. I will only explore and not take action. By the way, I will ask you to take care of Harvey here.”
Linn shook his head, “You feel like you’re being left alone at the end of your life. That boy Harvey is very smart. Last time he went to the Lone Wolf Camp, although he acted like he was forced to say it by me, in fact it was all his plan. , you two siblings are both mysterious, a dark cultist, and as for him, he seems to be an elf?”
“No!” Harlin answered directly, “His origins are mysterious. I can’t give any more information, but I can tell you that he can definitely be helpful to your territory.”
Lin En had no intention of asking further questions, “Since you have made your decision, I won’t say more. I will say one last thing. I hope you can communicate with me on some matters that do not involve your secrets, so as to avoid the situation that you know, I don’t know, and the potential for all kinds of trouble.”
“Okay, I understand.”
Lin En left the workshop. She hoped that Harlem could stay here forever. However, he was a dark cultist and had his own church. It was impossible to join Ash Town unless the entire church moved here.
That’s even more impossible.
Forge workshop.
Roland held a forged pistol in his hand. Compared with previous guns, it had been optimized. The barrel was shorter, and the wooden handle was made of special wood, making it lighter.
He held the pistol in his hand, pointed it at the target not far away, and pulled the trigger.
The sound of wind force sounded, and a stream of light instantly shot out from the barrel and landed next to the target. An explosion occurred. The target was blown open, and fragments flew into the sky, and then fell to the ground.
“The power is enough, but the accuracy is not enough.” Roland murmured.
He looked at the pistol and thought about how to improve its accuracy. After thinking for a while, he came up with no idea.
“Power, Kil, do you have any suggestions for improving accuracy?” Roland asked.
Weili thought for a moment and replied, “Master, this is a matter of distance. Within ten meters, the pistol can accurately hit the target, but not thirty meters away. Then we can use it as a short-range weapon.” .”
Roland scolded: “How come you have such a long brain? Why do you have no foresight at all? Do you know why mages are feared by others? During wars, mages are always the priority to be killed. It’s because they have mastered Magic with long-range attacks.
No matter how powerful the knight is, can he attack the opponent from hundreds of meters away, but mages can, especially those who have mastered the forbidden spell, can destroy a city from a thousand meters away.
What the lord means is long-range, long-range, long-range. If there is no way to attack remotely, why make this? ”
Weili was scolded so much that he didn’t dare to speak, and even with spittle falling on his face, he didn’t dare to make any move.
“What about you!” Roland turned to Kiel again.
Kil was extremely frightened, his body was trembling, and his mind was running wildly, thinking of ways, just when Roland was about to curse.
He suddenly thought of something, “I know. The Lord asked me to help Lord Matthew make glasses before. He just kept polishing the crystal. It was also very strange. After the crystal was polished, you could see it when you put it in front of your eyes. It’s farther away.”
“Oh, there is still such a thing, you can polish it now and let me see.”
Kiel didn’t have any ink marks, so he quickly found a crystal and polished it.
After a period of polishing, Roland placed the crystal in front of his eyes with a surprised expression on his face.
He thought for a while, put on the crystal, and then shot. Still missing the target, he adjusted his position and continued shooting.
After many adjustments, as the streamer flashed by, it hit the target.
“Move the target ten meters back!” Roland shouted.
The apprentice quickly followed suit.
The bullseye was hit again.
“Move ten more meters!”
“Sir, there is progress in the forging workshop. Master Roland wants you to come over.” Little Tom ran in and said.
“Oh?” Lin En immediately stood up and left.
The forging workshop covers a large area, mainly the yard at the back, mainly to allow them to conduct experiments better.
When Linn came here, he saw Master Roland holding a pistol in his hand and stroking it constantly. He had an intoxicated expression on his face, as if he had seen some peerless beauty.
“Grandmaster!”
Roland came back to his senses and said, “Sir, I have optimized the previous pistol. You can try the effect first.”
Linn held the pistol, which greatly changed its weight. He aimed at the target in the distance and fired.
As the sound of the explosion sounded, Linn said in surprise: “The range is longer and the recoil is smaller. Even ordinary people can use it without much problem.”
“Pair it with this.” Roland handed the crystal over.
Lin En was confused for a second, and then he understood. He wore the spar and fired, and his accuracy improved a lot.
After several adjustments, he hit the bullseye accurately.
Lin En didn’t speak for a while. After a while, he asked: “Who thought of matching this crystal with a pistol?”
“At the beginning, I thought about improving the accuracy, so I asked them to think of any way. Kil said you made Matthew’s glasses before, so I asked him to polish the crystal. I didn’t expect such an effect.”
“Yeah, I really didn’t expect it.”
Linn was completely unexpected. It had to be said that they were really a blind cat meeting a dead mouse – it was just a coincidence.
Polishing the crystal is not as simple as it can help them see farther away. This crystal is definitely not suitable for use as glasses.
Unexpectedly, they accidentally made an alternative sniper rifle.
Linn looked at the pistol and found the button on the handle. After pressing it, the magazine fell and contained crystals of even size.
Roland took the initiative to introduce, “I modified this according to what you said by adding the stabbing arrows mentioned by Levin. It can be stuck in it. If you want to fill it with crystals, just press it. However, this process takes time and will Every second of delaying an attack is precious on the battlefield, but I don’t have a better way to replace it at the moment.”
“It’s already very good.” Linn pushed the magazine back and looked into the barrel, “Isn’t this a spring pushing the spar?”
“No, the previous spring structure has a too short range and is prone to wear and tear. After many shots, it is easy to get stuck. The spar has been injected with energy, and it will explode if it cannot be shot out in time. Fortunately, It was me who was shooting when the explosion occurred, so there was no danger.”
Linn nodded, “The jamming is a problem!”
The crystals they use are not conventional bullets. There is no big problem if the bullet gets stuck, but the crystals are different. They will explode, just like a bomb that cannot be thrown away.
“I originally wanted to forge the barrel to be stronger, so that even if it explodes, it will not be dangerous to the user. However, there will be two problems. One is the increase in cost, and the other is the increase in weight. I forged I have no problem using a gun barrel myself, but the apprentices can’t hold it steadily. They have been forging it for a long time and are very strong. If it were ordinary people, it would be difficult to hold it with both hands and they would be unable to shoot.
Later, I wanted to engrave a magic circle on it. As long as an explosion occurs, the magic circle will be stimulated to expand and defend. The problem is still the same. The cost is too high and there is no way to achieve mass production. I have been thinking about how to modify it some time ago, and then I saw the talisman in the blast furnace. Wen, then I thought why not try using runes.
I went to discuss with Hamid. We first used wind runes in the barrel. After injecting energy, the wind would blow and blow out the crystals inside. This method also has two problems. It is too accurate. Worse, we have no way to control the wind flow, even if we change the barrel structure, it will make it impossible to hit the target within ten meters.
The main problem is that not only do you need to inject energy into the crystal, but you also need to activate the runes. This is equivalent to requiring two pieces of energy, so the durability is not good. ”
“Then what do you use?” Linn was curious.
Roland replied, “It’s still a rune. There is a repelling rune that will repel objects. Depending on the amount of energy injected, the stronger the repulsion of the rune, the crystal is not large. In this way, it can be fully utilized. The effect of runes.
Considering that two pieces of energy are needed, I added low-level magic crystals inside, and here it is. ”
Lin En looked where he pointed and saw a magic crystal the size of a grain of rice inlaid on the back of the barrel.
“This kind of lowest-level magic crystal does not contain much magic power, and it is relatively messy. It is completely useless to a mage, but it can activate runes. It only takes a little each time. According to my experiments, A low-level crystal can be fired almost twenty times.
If you change to a higher-level magic crystal, you don’t need to worry about replacement. The crystal can absorb magic power on its own to recover, but the cost is higher. It’s better to use low-level magic crystal. I found it in the warehouse. few. ”
“It turns out that after one use twenty times, there are twelve crystals in the magazine, which means that they need to be replaced when reloading for the second time, otherwise the last few crystals will not be able to shoot. This comparison It takes time, wait, you said there are a lot of low-level magic crystals in the warehouse?” Lin En responded.
“That’s right, I went to the warehouse to take a look and found a lot of ore, so I took it over and used it. There are a lot of low-level magic crystals, probably hundreds or so. I guess magic crystal ore was found in your mining area. ”
Lynn: “No one told me about this kind of thing.”
Later, he realized that this was normal. How could those workers know the magic crystal? He had not been to the warehouse during this period, so naturally he could not find the magic crystal.
“I will go and see the situation of the magic crystal mine. It should not only be low-level crystals, but also higher-level magic crystals. Let’s discuss the pistol first. I am wondering if I can increase the number of crystals, or even achieve the goal of not needing The effect of replacement.”
Roland shook his head, “No, you take it too much for granted. This is a spar, not magic power. Only magic power has no limit on the quantity, unless you apply the spell to the pistol.”
He paused, a thoughtful look on his face, “Why can’t we do this? Why not try it.”
Linn knew that he was thinking wrongly, “I mean it’s faster to change.”
“It’s too difficult. It’s not that I haven’t tried to increase the number. Unless the pistol is enlarged as a whole, then the magazine will be increased, and the number of bullets can naturally be increased. I also thought about the possibility of continuous firing and adding hundreds of crystals. , the power caused by a one-time shot will be extremely terrifying.”
“Machine gun.”
“What?”
“No, what you said may be possible, but for now, let’s perfect the pistol first, just like this polished crystal, let’s do this”
Linn found that Roland was indeed a master, completely different from ordinary craftsmen. He would not stick to the old ways, and his ideas were not so old-fashioned. Instead, he had all kinds of novel ideas. He just gave him a model and concept of a pistol, and he was able to Make it and optimize it.
He was going to explain the concepts of sniper rifles, machine guns and other firearms and ammunition in detail to see if the other party could surprise him.
