After a night of meticulous carving, polishing, polishing and waxing, when the white belly of the fish appeared on the horizon, a delicate gun rack was finally made.

Audrey had fallen asleep on her stomach on the table, and Rafa told her to go back to rest, but she was stubborn about staying here.

After draping his robe over Audrey, he began to assemble the parts one by one onto the gun rack.

The assembly went smoothly due to the fineness of the parts he had received from Felihill, but in a matter of moments, a brand new bolt-action rifle was assembled.

He was somewhat conservative not to choose semi-automatic rifles or automatic rifles for fear that some parts would not be made, but now it seems that with Philicon's ingenuity and Elle's help, some of the key parts of these guns should be handy.

But it doesn't matter, only one gun has been made now, and it has not yet been mass-produced, so it is not too late to wait until the experiment is over to improve it.

After wiping the barrel of the gun repeatedly with a clean handkerchief, he became more and more fond of this thing called "gun", although it was the first time he had seen this thing, but the power of the gun in Ding Yifan's memory could be said to be extraordinary for this world.

Now the bullets are missing, and although he doesn't know how Feliciel should solve the bullet problem, but with Elle by her side, it shouldn't be a big deal, and the stubborn Feliciel will do everything.

He named the hand-loaded gun "Elle One", because the parts were all made by her, so it was just right to name it after her.

Just as he excitedly picked up the rifle and kept aiming and playing, the door was suddenly pushed open, and the sound of "squeak" opening woke up Audrey, who was still asleep, and she grabbed the long sword on the table and stood up vigilantly.

She was relieved when she saw that it was Felihill.

"My angel, it seems that you have made new progress. Rafa saw at a glance a silk bag that Felicier was carrying, and it looked heavy.

"Is this your final product?" Philicille handed the bag to Audrey, walked over to Rafa, and motioned for Rafa to bring the gun.

Handing the gun to Philicon, he noticed the exhaustion on her face, needless to say, she must have had no rest all night, "You look like you're tired...... Why don't you go and rest first......"

However, Felicille seemed to ignore his words, and kept his eyes on the gun in his hand, not intending to answer him.

"When is the experiment?" she said, handing Rafa the gun back.

"Uh... Let's have breakfast. He hadn't thought that Felicille would be interested in these cold pieces of iron, but she didn't expect that she seemed to care about this thing very much, even to the point of being as anxious as he was.

"Then hurry up and eat. ”

Rafa then began to dine under the gaze that Felihill had been staring at.

"Fili, I say...... Won't you eat it?"

Felihill sat across from him, staring at him with wide eyes, though tired.

"Hurry up and eat!"

Reprimanded by Felihill, Rafa had to eat some hastily.

When everyone hurriedly left the City Lord's Mansion, it was just dawn.

However, the people of Icefield City have always gotten up early, and although it is just dawn, the well-trained knights have already gotten up early, and without Rafa's command, Kono commanded the knights to start and complete the construction of the parts of the city wall that were not completed yesterday, as well as repair the large and small damage to the various parts of the wall.

Seeing Cono so conscientious, Rafa couldn't help but be a little happy, it seems that there are still a lot of capable people around him.

"Your Highness, Madam. ”

Seeing Rafa and Felihill traveling together, Curnow was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, since he came to Icefield City, he had only seen Felihill once at the dinner party, and he didn't expect that the daughter of the Grand Duke of Hyperion would also have a time to enter the world.

"Kono, how long will it take for the walls to be completed?" Rafa glanced at the knights in the distance who were forming a line and began to pass cement buckets towards the city.

Kono looked at the strange wooden pole he was holding tightly in his arms, and although he was a little puzzled, he still answered truthfully, "Your Highness Qiqi, we started work for a while last night, so the progress is not slow, and it should be almost completed in two more hours." ”

"Order all the knights to assemble at the head of the city, and we won't be short of two hours. ”

Although he didn't know what Rafa was going to do, he immediately responded, "Yes." ”

The knights moved very quickly, and by the time Rafa and the others had gone up to the city, the knights had just finished assembling, and everyone had their heads proudly tilted up, and they were neatly lined up in an array at the head of the wide city.

Rafa didn't talk nonsense, stood in front of the knights, and directly stated the purpose of the move.

"We made a new weapon. He raised his shiny rifle above his head for everyone to see.

"It turns out that the wooden stick is a new weapon, how is it used?Used to knock someone else's head? It turns out that a polished wooden stick can be called a new weapon......" Curnow laughed secretly in his heart, but then he thought that Rafa has a unique way of doing things every time, and this wooden stick obviously cannot be as simple as being used to smash other people's heads, thinking of this, he immediately put away his contemptuous thoughts.

It's not just Curnow who thinks like this, almost all of them have a similar psychological change, first despising it, and then thinking that Rafa will definitely not be ordinary in doing things, so they all listen quietly.

Seeing that no one had asked questions, Rafa continued, "This thing hasn't been tested yet, and now, we'll need to select a few sharpshooters to compete with me to prove whether there is a need for a new weapon." ”

Then he took the bullet in his left hand and the barrel of the gun in his right hand, and explained the principle to the crowd, although he knew that few people might be able to understand it, but in order to prevent them from associating it with the devil again, he forced a lot of words, trying to convey that this thing was similar to a bow and arrow.

This was an extremely important step, because if there was any news that the Third Prince had killed a prey a few hundred meters away with a wooden stick, the Inquisition would definitely come to him for trouble.

When he saw that the knights were all in a fog as if they had heard the Tightening Spell, he knew that the effect had been achieved, and as long as it was not related to supernatural things, the promotion of this thing in the future should be very smooth.

After the explanation, Kono, who didn't know why, still hand-selected the three knights with the strongest strength and the best archery.

"Now, I'm going to show you how this thing works, it can be a bit loud, so I hope you can be prepared in advance. ”

Rafa loaded a new Philicill's ironcore bullet, and although it was her first experiment, she still trusted the gunpowder made by Felicille, because since she said it was powerful, it must be right.

Then the knights, as well as Philisille, saw Rafa make a strange pose.

He turned to the outside of the city, then pressed the thick end of the pole against his shoulder, pressed his face against the pole, and held the front end of the pole with one hand and the back end with the other.

"If you don't make a sound, I'm going to die laughing. Rafa felt that everyone behind him was secretly snickering, and he could only try to recall the moment when Ding Yifan pulled the trigger and bulleted out of the chamber in his memory.

"See that little tree?" he specified a target to show the effect.

When everyone heard this, they all looked outside the city, it was a small tree next to the official road about five or six hundred meters away from the city gate, although it was not tall or thick, but it stood alone on the side of the road, very eye-catching, as long as it was not blind, it could be seen at a glance.

"I'm talking about the rabbit under the tree. ”

With his eyes, he could see the rabbit jumping under the tree very clearly, but the rest of the people had to make a lot of effort, all squinting and trying to find it.

Fortunately, the sun is shining just right, and most people can see the gray figure jumping under the tree.

When the gray rabbit stood up and looked around, he pulled the trigger without hesitation.

"Bang!"

Rafa had warned that there would be a noise, but the sudden noise startled everyone except Felihill.

Rafa glanced at the very little white smoke coming from the muzzle of the gun, lowered the gun, and said with a smile, "Fili, your gunpowder is even better than I thought." ”

"Thank you. Felihill replied indifferently, looking into the distance as he did.

It was only when everyone realized that the shooting was over, but they all looked at each other and did not understand what was happening.

"Curnow, send someone to fetch that rabbit back. ”

"Yes. ”

Rafa already knew the result the moment he pulled the trigger, and the bullet was already doomed to the death of the rabbit at the moment of discharge, and if ordinary people used it, there might be some errors, but with his precise control, the error had already been reduced to a minimum.

The knight soon returned with the rabbit.

A large hole had been punched through the rabbit's neck, and the blood had stuck its gray fur together.

He could have had a chance to use a bullet to penetrate its left eye and its right eye without hurting a single piece of fur, but the rabbit he picked up would have a strange appearance with bleeding eyes, and it was inevitable that someone would have something to do with the devil, so he simply pierced the neck.

Now the knights understood a little bit about the principle of the gun, but they were not too surprised, for if they were asked to shoot a rabbit, they boasted that they could do it.

"Alright, I'm done with my demo, now ......" Rafa looked at Felicille.

Before Rafa could finish speaking, Felihill already knew what he wanted to do, so he snatched Elle One and said, "I'll compete with you." ”

Seeing the beautiful and moving Felihill actually said that she wanted to play in person, the knights were eager to try, after all, to compete with the "pearl of Byron", there are not many opportunities like this, although she is a woman, but Ola is a country that respects force, female knights and female nobles abound, and the situation of male superiority and female inferiority is not so serious, so she participated in the competition Everyone was not only not surprised, but they all felt honored.

However, Knight Kono was a little worried, although he didn't know what he was worried about, but he just felt that something was not right, "Madam, this ......"

"It's okay, let's just show you how heroic Lady Felihill is. Rafa smiled and took a step back.

Felihill grasped the barrel of the gun with both hands, pulled the bolt neatly, and threw out the cartridge casings that Rafa had deliberately left in the gun.

The bullet casings landed with a crisp sound, and the three knights, each with a magazine for arrows and an iron bow, stepped forward and began to adjust the bowstring.

Taking advantage of this time, Rafa ordered many chickens and ducks and other livestock to be released outside the city walls, allowing them to roam freely.

And the content of the competition is naturally more than who kills more livestock.

As Rafa shouted ready, the knights puffed up the muscles in their arms, and their hard iron bows were drawn into a full moon.

Compared to the imposing knights, Felihill's side was much calmer, her slender hands clutching the barrel of her gun, her pale blonde hair hanging down her cheeks, and although her face was tired, it was still difficult to hide the excitement in her eyes.

"Let's go!"

"Bang!"

The gunshot rang out just as Rafa had just spoken, which showed how focused her mind was, and she was really engrossed.

A goose in the distance was flipped over immediately after the gunshots rang out, flapping its wings twice and then remaining motionless.

The sound of mechanical scrubbing was heard, and Felihill quickly faded out of the case, quickly reloaded, and then completed the next shot.

"Bang!"

Another chick gets pierced.

Such a clean reloading shot made Rafa not believe that this was the first time she had touched a gun, and she couldn't even believe that she was still the aristocratic woman who liked to read and study, she looked like a silent and calm hunter, and she was 100% calm with her prey.

Rafa was once again impressed by her, this perfectionist who had been buried in the laboratory all day turned out to be not only an elegant aristocratic lady, but also a tough and decisive warrior at heart.

Pull the bolt, remove the shell, load the bullet, shoot.

Felicille kept repeating the process, simple and quick, and the knights on the side were not to be outdone, and kept firing their bows, but the movements were much slower than Felicille's.

"Bang!"

When the last loud gunshot rang out, Felicille lowered her arms, her eyes glinting with excitement that could not be concealed.

"That's the power 'we' should have!"

The last bullet toppled a rooster with an arrow, the arrow missing its target and piercing deep into the ground, its tail feathers fluttering.

The knights retrieved all the dead animals and could tell from their wounds whether they had been hit by bullets or arrows.

The result was overwhelming, a total of fifty prey, and Philicille had a total of thirty bullets, so a total of thirty prey were gunshot wounds, and the remaining twenty were hunted by the three knights.

Needless to say, the meaning of Rafa's intention is already clear: even men, women and even children without professional training can become dangerous warriors as long as they have this!

Next, Rafa tested his ability to penetrate the armor at different distances with the few remaining bullets.

The result surprised everyone again.

When encountering a knight in armor, this gun can effectively penetrate and kill at a maximum distance of 600 meters.

You must know that the strongest bow and arrow in the Aura Empire is only more than 300 meters away, and most knights do not pay much attention to bows and arrows, and the focus is on the speed of the cavalry and the sharpness of the blade, and the appearance of this thing can be said to be of epoch-making significance.

After this competition, the knights began to repair the city walls again, but the excited knights were still talking about the topic just now, everyone fantasized that they could get this new weapon one step earlier, for the knights who could only fight in close combat, if they could kill the enemy without getting close, who would want to risk their faces?

On the way back, Felihill seemed to be thinking about something, and even Rafa called her several times, but she ignored it.

"Fili, Fili......"

As he was about to reach the City Lord's Mansion, Felihill finally realized what Rafa had been saying, "Shut up." ”

"What are you thinking, Ms. Fili?" he asked cheekily despite being reprimanded.

"I—" Felihill hesitated in a rare moment, and after a moment of silence, she finally raised her head as if she had made up her mind, "If you want to recruit more witches, I hope you can find a way to produce these things, and it's not easy for one Ai Lei to do this." ”

"Mass production? I'm not going to mass produce this thing. ”

"What? you don't want to recruit witches?" Philicille stopped suddenly, her eyes turning a little cold.

Rafa didn't expect her to have such a big reaction, and quickly explained, "Of course I want to, I mean this thing can only be regarded as the first generation of products, and what I want to mass-produce is better than this thing." ”

"Please, next time, finish in one breath. Felihill glanced at him with a sigh of relief.

"Yes, ma'am. ”

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Felihill had a rare lunch with him.

Then, under her supervision, Rafa began to draw drawings of the new firearms, and he also asked in passing about the parts that could not be made, so that he could revise his ideas.

This discussion between the two is probably the longest they have ever been engaged.
