Sword and Magic and Taxi

The Paladin finally stopped pestering Zhao Mai. After Hazel determined the target of the next stop, she temporarily left Zhao Mai to gather the other six sisters. Zhao Mai was a little curious, how did they contact each other in a world without mobile communications? But he also knew in his heart that he had more important things to do.

You seem more normal without a woman by your side. Green held a piece of paper full of things written on it and said in admiration: The things you prepared are very complete, and they take into account both weight-bearing and practicality. Even if you are some experienced I'm afraid no adventurer is as thoughtful as you. Where did you learn all this knowledge?

I told you that you don't know, so I won't waste the effort. Zhao Mai looked at the back of the blacksmith shop and asked, Do you think Suok can complete the design I gave him?

Don't worry about it. If there is only one dwarf in the world who can complete your design, it is Sok. He is a pure craftsman, perhaps born for the profession of craftsman. The God of the Dwarves has given him all the blessings . As for you, I really doubt that you are not a druid, but a chosen one of Iroli.

Iroli does have the domain of knowledge, history and self-improvement, but most of those who believe in him are warrior monks. My power comes from the force of nature, not entirely from self-cultivation. There is a difference between the two.

Damn, that's what I mean. Green slapped the table and suddenly became a little angry: The more I come into contact with you, I find that there is nothing you don't know. Take a look around, I dare say that within a radius of two hundred miles, there is nothing you don't know. There is absolutely no monk here, how do you know these things? What the gods can do seems to be no secret to you, and your strength is so low. This contrast is maddening, you know?

If you remove your low strength, I think I will be happy to accept your praise. Zhao Mai was not angry, smiled and patted Green on the shoulder: Thank you for your concern. I have figured out what I need, and I will Study hard.”

If you like Hazel, you must improve your own strength, otherwise there will be too little chance of success. Green changed the topic and suddenly said: You must not mistake her favor for like you. I think she is still It's just more curiosity. This feeling is not stable. To be honest, if it weren't for Hazel is indeed a rare beauty, I would have poured cold water on you. The combination of a paladin and a druid is simply... … It’s just indescribable.”

Ha, I didn't think that far ahead. Zhao Mai laughed twice and then became serious. Okay, the time to enjoy life is over, now I'm going to get nervous. Before... I did feel a little relaxed before, but that's because I basically solved my worries. I won't always be like that.

I'm relieved, you are still a smart person after all.

Why do you always emphasize this point? Zhao Mai was a little surprised. Green seemed to have a very strict set of evaluation standards, dividing everyone into smart people and not smart people, and he also treated them strictly differently when interacting. . To non-intelligent people, Green never showed concern or enthusiasm, let alone trust, and had a completely business-like attitude. Only when he meets a smart person will he have some expressions.

I'll tell you when I have time. I'm not busy right now. Green avoided the topic and said, Look, Sock is out.

The dwarf was flushed and sweating, but his excitement and satisfaction were beyond words. Teacher, I succeeded. Your sliding rod reloading was successful, and the rotation reloading was also close to success. Now the power of the musket has increased by at least three to four times!

Zhao Mai knew that his combat ability was still very weak, so he relied more on muskets to protect himself. Since he couldn't use alchemy to create better ammunition, he could only work on the firearm itself. He knew very well that what really made the power of a firearm unstoppable was the loading mechanism.

Although it has surpassed muzzle-loading ammunition, flintlock guns, fixed-loading ammunition and integrated ammunition, Zhao Mai is still not satisfied. Due to the limitations of the manufacturing process, the magazine loading and ammunition chain cannot be made yet, so the push-pull sliding loading of the shotgun must be made.

In addition to the two bullets in the chamber of the Megalodon modified by Sock, eight bullets can be preloaded in the empty slot under the gun body (four for each barrel). When it is time to load the gun, just pull the mechanism backward with your hand to push the last two bullets into the gun chamber and squeeze out the fired bullets at the same time. At the same time, the past method of bending the gun body to load ammunition is also retained, making it easier to deal with jamming.

Such a change increases the launch speed by three to four times. How did you come up with the idea?

Green shook his head and said to the dwarf: How did you come up with it? This is probably Mike's biggest secret. Haven't you discovered it yet? Even these are still not the upper limit of his knowledge and wisdom.

What's wrong with that? This shows that my craftsmanship will continue to improve, and my future with muskets is very bright! Suoke excitedly bumped his fists: Now I am looking forward to the day when I return to my hometown more and more. I will Let them all see that weapons like muskets can become the new dependence of dwarves!

Dwarves and muskets actually go well together, just like elves and bows and arrows, halflings and slings, and humans and heavy cavalry spears. If he could become famous and return to his hometown, Zhao Mai would be very happy for him. Because this means that the entire group of dwarves, at least Thok's clan, will start making muskets, and then there will be more ammunition to use.

I made a total of about eighty suitable bullets. They are too heavy for you. It would not be a good idea for you to carry them all. Sok pulled out a bundle from behind his body, and the bullets inside collided with each other. Makes a crisp sound. According to your request, nearly half of them are pointed bullets, like arrows.

Well, thank you. How's the grenade situation?

The dwarf suddenly frowned, and after pondering for a moment, he said: Mike, I encountered a strange thing. I made the small throwing bomb you asked for, and I had an idea at that time. If I use more If the alchemy potion is made larger, will it also become more powerful?

That's right.

It was like this at the beginning, but when I got so big... the dwarf said, while making a gesture about the size of a basketball, it can't be detonated no matter what, even if it is thrown into the fire. It can only be dismantled. Only when it becomes a small portion can it explode.

So weird? Zhao Mai also frowned. Logically speaking, this situation should not happen. Although the power of the bomb does not increase linearly with the increase in the amount of explosive charge, it should never fail to detonate. Excluding the reasonable factors, all that's left is...

I think it may be because your actions like this have attracted the attention of the gods. Zhao Mai said: The four elements are balanced, whether it is strength, quantity or quality. This is the most basic rule of the world. Our weapons may This balance was touched, so it was stopped by a certain god. This thing may be a good thing, but it may have disastrous consequences. Let's let it go first and don't touch it again.

Sock and Green looked at each other, they really hadn't thought of this aspect.
