77. Silver-plated shotgun

No one expected that among the four lots, the most popular was actually this salamander upper body leather armor with a long mouth cut on the chest, this well-made salamander leather armor was different from the one worn by the young warrior of the wolf warrior clan before, the warrior was wearing a one-piece leather armor, and the upper body and leather pants were sewn together, and now the auction one piece only has the upper body, the fiery red salamander skin exudes a shining light, Kuzi told me that the salamander skin is almost a first-class demonic beast, and the leather is the strongest and most durable, which is also the monster standing at the top of the food chain in the wasteland at the northern foot of the Pai Plateau, as long as you don't step into the mountains of the northern foothills to find death, only wander in the wasteland, the most powerful monster is this salamander that can make very popular leather armor.

Most of the orcs on the field are probably excellent leather makers, and they are not worried about the opening on the leather armor, which also shows that this damaged upper body leather armor has the value of repair, when the auctioneer Ke Luo quoted a starting price of three gold, it was instantly doubled by the crazy orcs on the field, and the final price was seven gold coins and fifteen silver coins, which was bought by an orc hunter, and I was amazed that there were still some rich people in the orcs.

When the auctioneer Koro introduced the last broken lot, I came to my senses like an enlightenment, who said that I had to buy a crossbow to fight, and a shotgun like the one on the booth would work for me! With the strength I have now, I should be able to barely use such a short-barreled shotgun, and it is much easier to carry than a crossbow.

"This is a collectible silver-plated shotgun, the work of the famous gunsmith Frequi!" said Koro's first sentence, and then I felt that the rest of what he said no longer made sense. This short-barreled shotgun has been qualified, such a shotgun with a luxurious exterior and a finely carved Mithril coating can only be hung on the wall to admire slowly, and it is impossible to take it out and use it again.

"The magic crystal at the core of the lead shot excitation device of this shotgun was accidentally damaged, and this silver-plated shotgun has a fatal design flaw, so that it cannot be re-inlaid with high-quality magic crystals, so it will be placed here! Although this shotgun cannot be used, it still cannot be disguised that this is a blue quality exquisite silver-plated shotgun, if anyone here likes firearms, you may wish to take this gun away, this damaged silver-plated shotgun has a starting price of three gold. "The auctioneer, Koro, holds the silver-plated shotgun in his hand and shows us the exquisite carvings and craftsmanship of this shotgun.

I sighed secretly that it couldn't be used.

Shotguns are not very common in the Orc market, because Orc warriors prefer throwing weapons such as short spears, throwing axes, throwing knives, etc., in addition to bows and crossbows. The only guns made by the dwarven craftsmen are not marketed by the orcs for many reasons, but the most important one is the price. The manufacturing process of firearms is very complicated, and the price of weapons with magic patterns is definitely not too low, and the practicality is not as good as that of hard bows, and the lead pellets used cannot be recycled, which is far less economical than feather arrows that can be used repeatedly. In addition, the complex manufacturing process makes the maintenance and maintenance of the shotgun very harsh, and the orc warriors who are used to the rough branches are very disgusted with the maintenance of firearms, so unless there is a special need, few orcs are willing to buy an expensive shotgun, and some orc warriors even think that the shotgun is just a child's toy.

In this era, there was no gunpowder, and the reason why guns could fire lead pellets was entirely by relying on the magic pattern circle in the activation device to instantly generate a large amount of energy, and the lead pellets blocked in the barrel were instantly pushed out. Because the firearm relies on the magic pattern circle to generate a huge amount of energy to push the lead shot, the user does not need to have much arm strength, even if it is a child who learns how to use it correctly, he can resist the shotgun on the battlefield.

The dwarves with black humor have given them some interesting names according to the different grades of lead pills, the cheapest of which are naturally black pure lead pills, which are jokingly called black beans by the dwarves. The slightly better copper-clad lead pellets are called copper peas, and the more expensive silver peas with magic damage, which are shotgun pellets.

"May I ask, Mr. Auctioneer!" someone from the human merchant raised his hand and stood up, interrupting Koro's introduction.

Koro was originally very dissatisfied, it was very impolite and very irritating to be interrupted during the auction, but after Koro found the source of the voice, the anger on his face suddenly turned into a warm spring breeze, and he stretched out his hand very patiently and politely to signal the man, and said: "Your Excellency Rash Coss, please ask questions, and I will do my best to answer them for you!"

The person who can make Koro speak humbly like this is not a big man of the orc clan or a strong orc powerhouse, but a merchant from a human being, but he has spent at least a hundred gold coins at this auction, accounting for almost one-tenth of the total sales of this auction, and Koro is more like a pug wagging his tail at this time.

The merchant's question was very much in line with my heart, and he asked Koro: "Where exactly is this shotgun damaged, and please tell me Mr. Auctioneer in detail, maybe there will be a gunsmith in my Terran country who can repair this gun, otherwise from the point of view of craftsmanship alone, this silver-plated shotgun is not of much collectible value." ”

That's what I want to ask, but I only said that the magic crystal at the core of the excitation device was damaged, and it stands to reason that the power stone inlay on the activation device shouldn't be used repeatedly? Even if this magic crystal was not accidentally damaged, but turned into countless particles after the magic power was exhausted, wouldn't it also need to be re-inlaid with a new magic crystal? This is also the question in my mind.

Ke Luo was slightly stunned, but immediately reacted and said: "Your Excellency Rash, this silver-plated shotgun has been confirmed by the master craftsman of our Chamber of Commerce Alliance after appraisal, it is the core magic crystal inlay groove in the activation device that is damaged, and there is no way to completely remove the broken magic crystal, and the magic crystal inlay groove has no way to transmit the energy on the magic crystal stone into the magic pattern array, so the magic pattern array cannot be activated and generate huge energy to push the lead shot out." The problem now is that it is no longer possible to take out the shattered magic crystal without damaging the inlay groove, which will only cause the magic pattern on the base point of the magic pattern circle to be damaged, you must know that the core component of this gun is to activate the magic pattern circle on the installation. So at the moment this silver-plated shotgun is a bad gun with no magical energy source, and the master craftsmen of our Chamber of Commerce suggest that such a delicate silver-plated shotgun can be a fine collector's item. ”

"Mr. Auctioneer, you mean that the magic crystal on the silver-plated shotgun is broken, but you are worried that when you take the magic crystal off, you will damage the magic pattern circle of the activation device, so you think this gun cannot be repaired. If...... I mean, if!, if a magician infuses magic into the magic pattern of this silver-plated shotgun, then the gun can still be used, right? The problem now is that if an ordinary person wants to use such a shotgun, he must do everything he can to get rid of the shattered magic crystals in the gun, right?" asked Ryshkoth to the auctioneer.

Ke Luo probably didn't know the deep situation of this silver-plated shotgun, and he didn't know how to answer the more professional questions raised by Ryshkoth for a while, and he was embarrassed that he didn't know how to round the field, so he stood on the square platform and sweated profusely. It didn't take long for a waiter to trot up the square platform and whisper a few words in the ear of the auctioneer Koro, who was calm and said to the merchant Ryshkoth with confidence: "You are right, Your Excellency Ryshkoss. ”

"Well, I have no other questions, please continue! For this, I personally express my sincere gratitude to you and the Chamber of Commerce Alliance!"

I suddenly turned my head and asked Sister Guoguo, "Sister, does the magic pattern circle of the ordinary firearm activation device consume a lot of magic power?"

Sister Guoguo, who was bored on the side, was already drowsy, and if it weren't for the fear that we might encounter danger like yesterday, Sister Guoguo's character would have been unable to stay for a long time. After hearing my question, she obviously didn't know that the auctioneer on the stage was auctioning shotguns at this time, so she frowned and thought for a while before saying, "Shotguns are only available in the Dwarf Kingdom, and they are also very rare!" This thing is extremely complicated to make, and it is not easy to maintain, even the dwarves who are proficient in equipment do not like shotguns, but the design of the excitation circle on this shotgun is very exquisite, this is one of the classic magic circles designed by a very famous dwarf master master of the elf race, this magic pattern array is still one of the compulsory courses in the magic academy, the entire magic pattern circle is not as big as a matchbox, and the magic crystal consumed is also extremely small, and a primary magic crystal can only excite the lead shot more than 10,000 times. Oh, why do you ask this?"

"Huh, do you want to buy that shotgun?" Qige, who was sitting on the other side of me, interjected when she heard Sister Guoguo talk to me about the topic, her eyes became bright, and I knew that she also found this defective shotgun to be a perfect fit for me.

I have a little bit of magic, but this little bit of magic is not enough for me to cast a damaging spell completely, it can be said that after entering the wasteland, I only have a little bit of self-protection ability, but I lack the means of attack, I can only assist Kuz hunting from the side, I can't even pull the lightest hunting bow, usually an orc child as big as me can pick up a hunting bow, but I can't, I lack systematic strength training, and I am a human child, born weaker than orc children in terms of strength attributes. Then I thought of holding a crossbow, this kind of crossbow does not require strong arm strength, it can easily pull the crossbow string apart with auxiliary tools, but the disadvantage is that the rate of fire is slow, and it takes a long time to wind the crossbow arrow, which is enough time for any monster from a hundred meters away to rush to my side and tear me apart.

However, this defective silver-plated shotgun happened to be missing the power part, because of the accidental damage of the magic crystal, the magic crystal inlay groove was also damaged, and finally there was no way to repair it, if the gem inlay groove was repaired, it would damage the magic pattern circle in the activation device, so for such a very special shotgun, I felt as if it was tailor-made for me.

I nodded affirmatively and said to Kig with great certainty, "Yes, I want it!"

If two days ago, I was afraid that even if I had known that such a shotgun would be suitable for me, even if I had seen it at auction, I would not have been able to afford it, so I would not hesitate to ignore it, but now it is different, I sneaked into the money bag in my arms, and the heavy money bag contained seventeen yellow-orange-orange gold coins, and they made me very confident.

The corners of Qige's mouth curled, and when the auctioneer Keluo announced the start of bidding, he raised his hand again and said loudly: "Three gold coins!"

The merchant, who was called Rhix, also said unhurriedly, "Three gold coins and ten silver coins!"

"Four gold coins!" Kig didn't even wait for Ryshkoth's words to fall, and the crisp voice echoed through the auction hall again.

After a moment's hesitation, Ryshkoth even raised his eyes to look at us, I made a grimace at him unceremoniously, he was obviously a little surprised, there was actually a row of people sitting at the top of the stand opposite him, obviously he didn't know where we came from, turned his head and whispered to his companions on the side, and raised his hand again to shout: "Four gold coins and ten silver coins!"

"Hardware coins!"

Kige still didn't hesitate.

Ryshkoth looked at the auctioneer, Koro, and finally decided to give up.

The orc auctioneer Ke Luo said in a witty tone: "This silver-plated shotgun now belongs to this beautiful human lady, please come to the front desk to trade with our attendants on the spot, it seems that you are a collector, from the beginning of the auction of the broken sword, I am very impressed with you, I wish you a good mood in this auction!"

"Oh yes!" I shouted, and before Kig could respond, I ran down with my money bag.

"Oh no, it's you little guy again, please be careful this time, if you accidentally damage the tables, chairs and benches in the venue, I will ask you to pay me a silver coin to repair the repair, please be careful! This gun is not the same as a broken sword, it may break if it hits the chair. "The auctioneer Keluo carefully handed me the silver-plated shotgun, and when he saw that I didn't care about it, he shook it in his hand, and hurriedly persuaded me, I guess he didn't want this shotgun to make any mistakes before it was handed over to Qige, and if a reckless child like me accidentally broke this firearm with fine workmanship and extraordinarily complicated parts, it would be bad to have a dispute.

After getting the shotgun, I felt that the silver-plated shotgun was not as heavy as I imagined, the black oak wood butt and the copper silver-plated barrel did not put too much burden on my shoulders, and I smiled playfully at Koro, and strode back with the shotgun on my shoulder.

"Hey, kid!" came Koro's distinctive voice behind him, and I thought he was calling me.

Looking back at Koro strangely, I saw Koro on the stage motioning for me to wait, and a waiter caught up from the aisle on the side, holding a leather bag in his hand and handing it to me, I felt heavy when I took it. At this time, the auctioneer in the stands said to me with a smile: "The original owner of this gun also comes with a bag of copper peas, although I don't know if it can be used, but this bag of copper peas is also yours." ”

I didn't expect to be given a bag of projectiles, and I hung this leather bag like a water bladder around my waist, and I took a deep look at Koro before turning around and walking back.

At this time, Sister Guoguo and Qige had already stood up, and when I came back, they walked straight to the exit of the auction hall.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" I asked.

Kuzi approached me and said, "We have to go to the cattle market in the north of the town to buy a livestock, and now our team needs a large animal that can carry things, otherwise we will not be able to carry the leather and herbs we have hunted and collected until we reach the depths of the wasteland." ”

I asked in amazement, "Why do you say that you are going to pick up money inside, and the wasteland is so rich, why don't you see all the orc compatriots here in Yemen go to the wasteland to beg for a living?"

"How can it be the same, those junior magical beasts in the wasteland, such as wind wolves, hyenas and the like, are still very dangerous to ordinary orcs. Kuzi put an arm on my shoulder, and we walked out down the dark passage of the auction hall behind Sister Gogo.

I turned my head and glared at Kuz, and said, "Didn't you say that those monsters are not dangerous?

"You're different!" Kutz said solemnly, "You have me, and I will protect you." ”

When a child is sworn by an older child, "I will protect you!" it hurts my stomach, especially when I am on the weak side, and I even want to choke Kutz by the throat and make him swallow these humiliating words back into my stomach. Kuz is definitely an extremely sensitive orc, he looked at the disdain in my eyes, glared at me and patted his chest and asked, "Jia, you don't believe me?"

"I believe it!"

I can't say much about this werewolf boy who likes to drill the horns.
