Chapter 547: The Dwarves Are Coming
While waiting for the demonized essentia melt to anneal and cool, Diego and Serum were not idle. Closing the magic bellows, cleaning the furnace, and sorting out all kinds of tools are all done by someone. Just as it takes time to heat up a furnace, cooling a furnace is a lengthy process, and the inner wall of a special furnace that is subjected to ultra-high temperature cautery will greatly reduce its service life if it is not carefully maintained.
By the time all of this was done, the morning sun was already shining into Stormwind. Although they were tired and wanted to die, they couldn't wait to fall asleep, but the emotions of the two people were very excited, because the demonic essentia melt poured into the mold finally cooled down completely!
Due to the different cold shrinkage speeds, the outer structure of the black iron casting mold has been destroyed, and even ceramic-like ice cracks have appeared on the surface. Serum finally reached out to probe the temperature. The place of the hand is cold. He nodded, picked up the oak mallet that Diego had handed him, and tapped it lightly on the mold.
The strength he used was not great, but it was like a sun-dried sand castle, and only a soft sound could be heard, and the black iron casting mold was scattered at once, and the scattered fragments were evenly sized, the largest being no more than the size of a peanut. In the midst of this pile of debris, five brilliant fusiform warheads appeared in front of the eyes of the two people.
Diego quickly picked up one of them and examined it in his hand. This smooth and round warhead is purple all over, and the surface is as crystal clear as the enamel of ceramic, red, black, blue, green and golden yellow, and the five colors of sand crystals are dotted like stars, which are the crystallization of the power of the five-colored dragon melted inside.
Diego was surprised to find that this time he touched the bullet, he was not pulled into the fragment of history by the power of time of the bronze dragon. Could it be that after re-smelting, the power of the crystallized dragon has failed? He couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
He turned his head in disbelief and looked at the dwarf beside him, then noticed that the same suspicion was flashing in the dwarf's eyes.
"Or? Shall we go find a place and shoot it?" Diego was a little undecided.
"Forget it, I don't want to waste such precious materials on the shooting range, you better test it on the battlefield." The dwarf said with some sadness. Although he also longed to see the power of this warhead with his own eyes, as he said, the demonic essentia was so precious that no one would be willing to use one for nothing. To tell the truth, Serum already regretted listening to Diego and melting them into warheads, if they were to be melted into short swords, it would not be enough, and it would be better to cast them into daggers than to shoot them now. Shoot. Go out, there's nothing left!
"Alright, then try again when I get back to the Cursed Lands," Diego agreed, glancing at the unhappy dwarf and patting him lightly on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I'm definitely going to look for the most worthy target, at least an Abyss Lord or something, and I won't discredit their value." ”
Serum nodded, then raised the warhead in his hand and took a closer look at the sunlight.
"You can go and rest, I want to look at them for a while, the thought that maybe after this big battle, they may all be consumed, my heart is like dripping blood!" The dwarf muttered uncomfortably.
"Whatever you want, they'll all be yours before I leave Stormwind!" Diego said with a smile and headed over to his bedroom. When the excitement of the bullet had passed, he felt like he couldn't open his eyes. He had never felt that the bed board would be so kind as it was now, and he couldn't wait to throw himself on it and sleep on it.
……
The following week, Diego meticulously rolled five shells from an alloy of silver and real silver, completing the manufacture of demonic essentia bullets. The ductility of real silver is good, and it can have a small amount of expansion and deformation when firing high pressure and high heat, and it is close to the chamber of the gun, and the air tightness is good, and the toughness of the silver can ensure that the cartridge case will not break, in addition, the smoothness of the alloy between the silver and the real silver is very good, and it is smooth and smooth when entering the chamber and drawing the shell. Run, the resistance is very small, and the probability of deformation and jamming is extremely low.
In order to propel this essentia warhead, which is twice as heavy as an ordinary warhead, Diego had to improve the formula of the propellant, adding flame oil to the dense explosive powder originally added to the flame flower powder, this oil extracted from the body of the fire-scaled eel can greatly improve the performance of the propellant, making it burn quickly and fully, the kinetic energy is strong, and of course, the cost is also very strong.
When all was said and done, Diego left the five essentia bullets for Serum to enjoy and play with, and he began to explore Stormwind. The tranquil garden area, the splendid and magnificent Cathedral of Light, the bustling and lively trade area, the vast storm lake, and the Valley of Heroes with the statues of the Five Heroes have left his footprints everywhere. He relaxed every day, walked in his car, and enjoyed the peace before the great battle, and if he had a choice, Diego really wished that this carefree holiday would continue forever, but things never worked out as planned, and at noon one day in the second week, the king's chamberlain found him in the tavern of Pigs and Whistles in the old town.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please go to the Metro Square, where he awaits you."
"Can you tell me what's going on?" Diego stood up from the bar with some reluctance, he knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.
"Dwarven reinforcements are coming!" The attendant said excitedly. For Stormwind City, this is indeed exciting good news, although the battle that took place in the royal palace some time ago was strictly forbidden by the king to leak out, but such a big movement has already caused a sensation in the city, and the citizens are all panicked, and all kinds of rumors are flying all over the sky, and some people even speculate that the third orc war is about to break out. In fact, their speculation is not far from the truth, only this time the enemy is far more powerful than the orcs.
They left the tavern and hurried in the direction of Metro Square. The squire kindly prepared a horse for Diego, which made them travel much faster.
"How many legions are there from the dwarves?" Halfway through, Diego asked the squire.
"I don't know yet." The squire said with some shame that he was not in a position to know these secrets.
"Who's leading the team?"
"I don't know."
Well, Diego sighed and shut his mouth and asked no more.
Maybe people are taking lunch breaks at this time, and there are very few pedestrians on the streets. They walked through the streets, along the canal all the way north, to the haze-filled dwarven quarters.
The entrance to the Mine Subway is located in an alley in the Dwarven Quarters, with its round-arched openings and giant rotating gears, giving it a unique style of dwarf engineering.
Not many passengers enter the subway today – a squad of royal guards has set up checkpoints to prevent civilians from entering. They entered the cave all the way and walked down the ramp for a while, and their eyes were full of joy.
Diego found himself in a large underground hall. Several deep troughs in the north-south longitudinal direction are side by side, which is the track on which the subway runs. Bright spotlights are placed every few steps along the tracks to provide a sense of safety and comfort for passengers. The waiting hall was empty at the moment, and Diego saw King Varian and Duke Berval sitting in a row of waiting seats, facing the tracks. A squad of royal guards was on standby not far from them.
Seeing his arrival, Berval beckoned to him.
"Diego, come over here."
Diego waved his hand and walked over to the king.
"Salute you, Your Majesty, and may the Light be with you!" He bowed and said.
"May the Light bless you too!" The king nodded, glancing at the large clock on the wall of the hall, then pointing to the empty seat opposite, "Sit down, according to the griffon messengers of Ironforge, they should be arriving soon." ”
Diego sat down and listened quietly to the conversation between the king and Berval. The two of them mostly discussed the combat readiness of the various legions, and did not shy away from Diego at all, but he did not have much interest in these matters and did not listen to a few words.
Just as he was sitting in his chair, slightly tired from having just eaten lunch, he suddenly heard Boval stand up with a thud.
"They're coming!" The Duke said with some excitement.
Diego listened as a rumbling vibration came from the depths of the tunnel, as if a behemoth was whizzing down the tunnel.
