Chapter 1116: It is possible to change the world
Nikko Blacksmith Shop is definitely one of the best century-old shops in Lexiang Town, the owner Kokaron Nikko is already the fourth generation of this blacksmith shop, Keon people's sensitivity to business and inheritance of craftsmanship have been well reflected in their family, Nikko Blacksmith Shop can exist for so long in Lexiang Town, which is the best proof.
"Master, there's no one on the street outside...... Why don't we close early? ”
The young apprentice leaned against the edge of the gate and looked out, but Kocaron didn't take his words to heart, the blacksmith shop had been open for so many years, and it had become a fixed habit to close the door even if there were no customers or orders, which was a tradition left by his ancestors.
The apprentice also knew that his joking words could not change his master's decision, and just as he was staring boredly at the low raindrops on the eaves, two vague figures suddenly appeared at the end of the street, and under the embellishment of the afterglow of the tavern not far away, these two figures were much more majestic out of thin air.
The young apprentice didn't disturb the work in his hands, but quietly hid in the dark and watched the two Xu Xing figures, the distance between the two was not too far, and after a few minutes, the faces of the two were still clearly visible in the meager rain curtain.
The man on the left is tall and burly, dressed in loose leather armor and looks extraordinarily laid-back, with a rare straight black hair, and an ice-blue left eye that adds a bit of wildness and bewilderment; And following him on the right is a beautiful forest elf, like a fairy tale princess with a delicate face, so that the apprentice at the door can't help but be stunned, and he can't help but want to contact her and socialize with her...... Then listen to her.
"Do you still have guests?"
In a stunned manner, the two of them had already stood in front of the door of the Nikko blacksmith shop, the young apprentice raised his head, and was a little flustered by the words of the tall man in front of him...... Young man, do you have any needs? ”
Ignoring the elementary apprentice at the door, Wen Wen walked directly into the house with Aiyusha beside him, and the young apprentice at the door came back to his senses and hurriedly moved a stool for the two, but after looking at Aiyusha, he looked at his master with a look of embarrassment.
"It's okay for me, just stand."
Aiyusha smiled, and the pleasant voice like the spring breeze made this elementary school apprentice who had never seen the world blush, most of the women who would come to Lexiang Town were adventurers or monster hunters, most of these people were five big and three thick, not to mention the voice, they couldn't see the difference between them and strong men when they put on clothes, and how many people were like Aiyusha?
Wen also noticed the embarrassment of the junior apprentice, but he didn't care, the other party was so young, remembering that when he was the same age as him, a beautiful big sister in the family felt the same way, and he couldn't help but show a faint smile.
"Ntire, don't be rude to your guests!"
Kou Caron naturally also noticed his apprentice, and the guests in front of him would not say that he, who was a master, naturally wanted to speak out and discipline, but he didn't expect that as soon as he finished saying this, the gentleness in front of him immediately waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, child, it's understandable." ”
"I'm the owner of this Nikko blacksmith shop, Kokaron...... I'm sorry that the ignorant child has caused trouble for this forest elf lady. ”
Kocaron has been here for so many years, and he has seen many monster hunters coming and going, but the two in front of him do not have the vulgar temperament unique to those hunters, in comparison, the two of them are more like legendary princes and princesses, polite and generous.
"It doesn't matter." Aiyusha smiled and shook her head.
"Okay boss...... Let's get down to business. At this time, Wen Wen directly opened his mouth to cut to the topic, "Do you have any weapons that use gunpowder here?" I'd like to see it. ”
"A weapon that uses gunpowder?" Kocaron was stunned for a moment, "This lord ...... What kind of weapon do you want? ”
"Are there many more?" Wen Wen was stunned for a moment.
"In the eyes of our Keanes, these weapons that use gunpowder are collectively referred to as 'firearms.'" Kokaron turned around, took down a somewhat delicate metal item directly from the shelf where many weapon models were hung, and turned around and put it on the counter in front of Wen Wen, "Firearms are powerful, but the shortcomings are equally obvious, our Kean clan's physical fitness is not able to compete with those beasts and monsters, we can only use these tricks, this is a small thing I once made myself, adults can take a look." ”
"Tricks?" Wen Wen reached out and grabbed the metal objects on the counter that looked like ancient firebolts, and said, "This is not a trick...... Firearms are so powerful that they can be much more efficient than the use of cold weapons if they can be used in combat effectiveness. ”
"Adults are very insightful, but the disadvantages of these things are almost as obvious as their advantages." Kocaron whispered, "Although it is powerful, after each attack, it takes a lot of time and energy to prepare for the next attack, and it is relatively bulky, and it is easy to miss if it is too far away from the enemy...... Therefore, in the eyes of these monster hunters here, things like 'firearms' are really flashy, and they are more willing to choose weapons like knives, guns, bows and arrows in comparison. ”
"These things aren't as weak as they think they are." Gently playing with the firearm in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he felt, "If you can improve the defects, these things ...... It can even change the pattern of this world! ”
As soon as the gentle words came out, Kocaron in front of him suddenly widened his eyes, he had lived in Lexiang Town for more than 30 years, but he had never heard such beautiful words, and he had never been out of Lexiang Town, let alone seen the Keane clan living in other places, all the knowledge and understanding of 'firearms' came from his own father, he had racked his brains to improve these equipment that looked very old, but life was forced, coupled with the ridicule and ridicule of others, for a long time...... He gave up on his original dream.
After all, he had been in the Nikko blacksmith shop for more than thirty years, and the firearms sold in this century-old shop could easily be counted on one finger.
And the young man standing in front of him now, instead of denying the value of 'firearms' like the others, said these things...... It has the potential to change the world!
