Returning to the lonely light log cabin again, it can be said that the building is empty, Ayton opened the wooden house and saw that Feng Li, Harvey, and Angel were all gone, no one took care of them for more than ten days, and a new spider web grew on the eaves.

"Brother, this place, will we come back in the future..."Ariel looked blankly at the familiar environment around her, although Angel had a lot of disputes with her, the house was bickering, the hill was about fighting... can be regarded as one of the few friends who are right for her, but now she is missing.

"Organize this place and see if there are any new people joining in the future. Ayton sighed and cleared the room of the cobwebs.

Ariel walked to her closet and opened it to see that there were piles of messy girl's clothes, and on the wooden table, the tools used for eating were also randomly arranged, showing the life of a girl who had lived alone at home for five years.

After everything was sorted out, the two opened the basement passage, which still had some research materials of the undead, and the raw materials for making the corpse puppets were also untouched. It can be seen that she probably didn't expect that she would leave so suddenly, and if someone finds out here, it is estimated that she will have to set off another uproar.

Ayton put all of Angel's research notes and materials into the storage space, and then sealed the clutter left by Angel in a secret cabinet, and completely cleaned up all traces. He dusted his hands contentedly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, approaching here!

"Vonley?" Ayton and Ariel looked at each other quizzically, cursing the traces of the secret basement a little, and then opened the door.

Outside, however, there were some unfamiliar faces, led by a young man dressed in dark gold aristocratic clothes, with azure eyes and hair color, and a five-point resemblance to the second brother of Blue Cocoa, Roddy Winston.

"First time we met, let me introduce you, I am the second prince of the Bright Blue Kingdom, Dan Mok. The second prince of Yaolan walked up to the threshold, was the same height as Ayton, and gave a noble courtesy: "It's a pleasure to meet you, the adventurer behind the rebellion in the Thornlands, Ayton." ”

“... Hello" Looking at the solemnly dressed royal knight behind him, Ayton nodded a little unnaturally, in fact, he also wanted to learn from him to return the salute, but he didn't know anything about etiquette between nobles...

But the knight behind the second prince didn't care about this, and when he saw the second prince taking the initiative to greet him, he just nodded in response, which was a big disrespectful behavior, and he just took a step forward. A man in a dark blue aristocratic dress next to him stopped the chief knight, and a smile appeared on his face that was not elegant, not decent.

"Let me introduce me, my name is Pivot, and like Your Excellency, I am not a nobleman now, but I am fortunate to be appreciated by His Royal Highness the Second Prince, and I am fortunate to be by His Royal Highness's side at this time. ”

"Presumably this friend must have encountered a lot of danger during his safe return from the Forest of Despair, and now that we have visited suddenly, many of them are rude. ”

These two sentences, the latter sentence is just a polite greeting, but the first sentence is a bit informative..' Like Your Excellency', the relationship has been invisibly brought closer, and 'I am not a nobleman now', which means that I may be an aristocrat in the future.

"Fortunately, I was appreciated by the second prince",This TM let me take refuge in the rhythm of this second prince who didn't know where to come from!!

“... It's okay, let's sit in first. Ayton held back this sentence for a long time, turned sideways, and took the initiative to let them in, no matter what, the other party took the initiative to come to the door, and the surface work was done first. He is not a dragon arrogant, no matter who he encounters, he will be over.

However, in the humble wooden house, there is no place to sit, but fortunately, the second prince in front of him is not the kind of old-fashioned and stubborn person, and his staff Pivot looked at each other, with a faint smile on his face.

"May I ask how much do you know about the current form of Huangyao City?"

Jumping straight to the point, Ayton breathed a sigh of relief, he hated going around the bush the most.

"I've heard that Huangyao City has been a little unpeaceful recently. But I'm such a small character, I just hope that incident doesn't affect the house I just bought for less than three months. ”

As he spoke, Ayton laughed self-deprecatingly. The first sentence said that he was not pretending to be confused, and the second sentence clearly said that he hoped that it would not affect his house, but in fact he was expressing that his ambitions were too low, and he didn't want to get involved in the fight between them, and they wanted to do whatever they wanted.

The second prince and his staff understood the meaning of his words. They looked at each other, and then Piwater came forward to speak: "Although your Excellency's feat in the Land of Thorns has not been disclosed, many high-level leaders know that your feat of splitting the rebels in the Land of Thorns, secretly communicating with the raccoon orcs, and rescuing the little princess is a young and promising talent, and His Royal Highness the Second Prince admires this kind of talent the most." ”

Your master and servant are really a talent together, Lao Tzu can't say that he doesn't mix, what else do you want to say... Ayton secretly slandered in his heart.

"It's just luck, if I hadn't run fast, I guess I would have died in the rebel camp. Ayton replied briefly, and at this point, he quietly watched what else the staff could say.

Pivot's eyes flickered, and he continued: "Then dare to ask Your Excellency, what is the relationship with Her Royal Highness the Little Princess?"

Hearing the little princess of Bright Blue, Ayton frowned quietly, and sure enough, as Bys said, because he was too close to Lan Coco, he might also be involved.

"It's just an ordinary friend, but I actually wanted to borrow her identity as a magician before, so that we can move more easily on the mainland. ”

Ayton silently distanced himself from Blue Coco. At the same time, he secretly wondered in his heart, how could he, an adventurer who had been in Huangyao City for less than three months, be able to attract the attention of this prominent Huangyao Second Prince!?

"In that case, then we won't disturb Your Excellency's rest for now. Pivot seemed to have expected him to say this, and took out a delicate invitation from his bosom in a bland manner, "This is the invitation to the palace dance banquet in two days, and many high-class people will participate in it, and if you are interested, you can also go and visit." ”

"......" Ayton silently accepted the invitation, the palace ball or something, to be honest, he was not interested at all.

"I am confident that Your Excellency will make a wise choice. The second prince, Dan Maud, glanced at Ariel next to him, smiled and nodded, and left with a group of guards.

It wasn't until he couldn't hear their footsteps that the smile on Ayton's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a deep solemnity, if it had been a deliberate temptation to make friends before.

Then the last sentence has a faint hint of threat... It's sour.

"Brother, that guy dares to come over next time to waste our time, I will definitely tear his mouth that night" Ariel, who was already waiting impatiently, pinched the bones of her hand.

"Don't worry about the ball, let's go home. Ayton smiled bitterly twice, even if he didn't look at her, he felt the girl's inadvertent resistance and impatience, before leaving, the second prince deliberately glanced at her, and it was estimated that he also noticed...

......

When he returned home, he found that the dwarf Fili had been waiting there for a long time, probably in a hurry to carry out research on the magic guide gun.

In the front yard, sixteen young gangsters from the Southern District, as well as two young girls, Eva and Bazaar, under the leadership of Bais, are also actively exercising their bodies. The girl, Irene, sat on the swing and watched quietly.

Knowing that Ayton and the others were going to study the Magic Guide Gun, Ariel said hello to him and ran to train Eva, who was more interested in her.

In response, Ayton secretly prayed that Ariel would not cripple Eva's girl again.

Back in the room, Ayton saw Starry Night sitting in the research room on the first floor, carrying out enchantment research that had been on hold for more than twenty days.

When the girl saw the dwarf Fili and knew that she was going to work on weapons again, the three of them went to the basement together.

Due to the limited energy, the long-pole bolt gun and the magazine pistol could only choose one of the two to start the development, and Filip originally wanted to advocate the development of a long-pole gun with greater power and a longer range.

But Ayton looked at the starry night and suggested starting with a larger, lighter pistol. But the more important reason was that Ayton wanted to make up for her missing 'Silver Shimmer' as soon as possible to build a pistol suitable for Starry Night, and after some arguments, the simple-minded dwarf finally couldn't say Ayton.

At the beginning of the research, compared with the first development of the revolver, the main difficulty of the magazine pistol was the 'unloading'. Each time a bullet is fired, the remaining cartridge casings in the chamber can be switched directly to the next without a barrel, so there must be two sets of spring devices, one for 'firing pin ignition' and the other for 're-entry spring' to complete a series of steps such as automatic reloading.

The principle is that the gas of some bullets pushes the sleeve backwards due to the reaction force, and when it reaches the pop-up window, it will pull the hook and hang the edge of the cartridge case, and the cartridge shell is thrown away with the top of the second bullet, and the sleeve brings the second bullet into the chamber by the force of the re-entry spring.

There is also the manufacture of bullets, which used to be directly used with a relatively simple silver bullet, and now the bullet used in the pistol needs to be composed of three parts.

'Bottom-fire', 'cartridge casings and shell gunpowder', 'warheads'

The bottom-fire is 'thunder-mercury' and cotton, and the main raw material of 'thunder-mercury' is saltpeter, but in this era, most nobles seem to only know that saltpeter may be used for refrigeration. According to Fili, lately the Bright Blue nobles have been hoarding saltpeter.

The main material of the bullet case is copper, which is relatively easy to get in this Iron Age. As for the warhead, after the recent magical breakthrough of the starry night, Ayton decided to add a little bit of material...

The time for research passed quickly, night gradually fell, Warren and the others who came to train went back, Bazaar made a rich dinner, and Ariel personally ran to the basement to call Ayton for dinner.

It's just that during the meal, Ayton noticed that there seemed to be a slight bruise on Bazaar's face, needless to say, she was probably also kindly 'trained' by Ariel, but she didn't seem to complain about it at all.

But Ayton couldn't stand idly by, and pulled Ariel in after the meal and reprimanded her. The latter began to mumble to himself about who told him to study the magic guide gun all the time, and he had to have some 'fun'. Feelings: Ariel quietly passed on Ayton's dissatisfaction with not accompanying her to other women!

In the middle of the night, Ayton suddenly felt that something seemed to be missing today, and after thinking about it carefully, why didn't Lan Coke come today?
