Chapter 101: Cooperation

Early the next morning after receiving Diego's invitation, Master Marin came to the deep furnace forging workshop.

"Sneeze, sneeze, sneeze!" He walked into the workshop with a series of loud sneezes, and the foul air of the dwarven quarter irritated the mucous membranes of his respiratory tract, so much so that he kept complaining, "This is not a good place to do enchantment, the dust in the air will affect the purity of the Phantom Dust and the Immortal Essence, and reduce the effect of the enchantment!" ā€

What he said made so much sense that even Diego couldn't ignore it, he thought about it and decided to make a compromise anyway.

"We can improve the drawings here, and then put the work on the casting part here, and the enchantment part in the mage area." He came up with his own compromise......

"In that case, why don't we also put this design work in the quiet and cozy mage area, where I have a studio where we can discuss your design while we cozy drink morning dew." **Shi Jian yƬ road. Mages never like to wronged themselves, even in the bloody battlefield, they like to sit at the small round table, and then roll up their sleeves and start working after drinking afternoon tea elegantly.

Diego turned his head and looked at Serrum? Deep furnace, ask for his opinion.

"I don't have any opinion, Mr. Aznar." The dwarf spoke immediately, and he had a clear attitude of only Diagoma. This surprised the ** master Marin, you know, the temper of the dwarves has always been synonymous with stubbornness, and their inexplicable pride and pride make them as difficult to convince as black iron.

So the group immediately moved to the mage area and began to work on improving Diego's design. Here, Diego first explained his design ideas to the two partners.

He had wanted to build a new gun for a long time. From Thorsilver Watchtower to Stormwind. It's been all the way, and I'll be honest. The ammunition capacity of the M1 rifle he used had already made him suffer along the way. Diego became more and more aware that upgrading his weapons was imminent.

Especially after a fight with the black dragon Onexia, Diego realizes that his future enemies are no longer ordinary soldiers or other professions. Instead, it's legendary creatures like Onexia, who will inevitably have to fight against these powerful creatures as he decides to do more for Azeroth. It was this sense of urgency and crisis that forced him to speed up the upgrading of his weapons.

This is not impossible, in fact, after the trip to the Abyss of Blackstone, Diego's engineering level is no longer what it used to be, and Frank Ron's engineering design not only broadened his horizons, but more importantly, liberated his mind and opened a door to creation in front of him. He realized. Rather than using his own half-known technology for making firearms on Earth, it is better to rely entirely on the goblin engineering that he is very familiar with and already has a deep degree of attainment, at least in the current Azeroth, his engineering level is not one of the best, but also superb. Bowval's request for the mages to help him was tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow.

As we all know, war is the biggest driving force of science and technology. Diego believed that Azeroth's engineering, especially in weaponry, was not necessarily lagging behind Earth's, knowing that at the time of the expedition to Northrend, there were already gunboats in the air. to the period of exploring Pandaria. Even the space carriers are equipped. As for Earth, at least until Diego crossed, the Helicarrier was just a fantasy in the movies

So. This time, he adopted the classic dwarven musket shape, not even the bell construction. Actually, this is for the sake of low profile. But internally, it's not the same thing at all.

Diego discovered. The wisdom of three people is always higher than that of one. Due to Thrum's advanced attainments in forging, and the master's superb knowledge of enchantment, coupled with his deep understanding of engineering, the chemical reaction produced by the combination of the three exerts an effect that one plus one plus one is far greater than three. The improvement of the drawings was very satisfying, and in the brainstorming and sparks of wisdom generated by the collision of different design ideas, the prototype of a perfect musket gradually emerged in front of their eyes.

First of all, in order to accommodate the height of humans, the length of this dwarven musket was extended, to a meter in length. This makes it look a bit slender, but the lengthened barrel also increases the range and power of the musket in disguise. At the same time, Diego planned to cast the barrel of this rifle with Safron iron and Augin, so that it would be greatly improved in terms of robustness, wear resistance and high temperature resistance.

Serrum? Deep Furnace appreciates this design idea: "The advantage of this is that the longer and thicker barrel can effectively dampen muzzle vibration and jump-up, increase the hit rate when firing continuously, and I will deal with the fusion of Safron iron and Aujin alloy." ā€

"But its weight also makes it difficult to move around with it, which is not in line with the hunter's way of fighting." Diego replied with a sad face.

"Leave this to me, the mage is omnipotent." **The teacher said triumphantly. He lifted his pen and traced a combined pattern of magic patterns on the drawing. This arcane pattern etched into the entire barrel of the rifle can effectively reduce the weight of the rifle, and it also allows it to convert all the energy generated by the explosion of gunpowder into forward kinetic energy, greatly reducing recoil, making the musket capable of producing the power of a sniper rifle at the length of the barrel of a normal rifle. In addition, these magic patterns will also replace rifling, allowing the bullets fired from the smoothbore gun to remain flying without spinning.

Due to the use of Saffron iron and Augen alloy for the casting of the barrel, this arcane pattern is almost undamaging. Thanks to Serrum? Deep Furnace, the grateful old dwarf is in charge of adjusting the alloy recipes of the various components, and handling all kinds of exotic and rare metals. Occasionally, the experienced dwarven blacksmith would have to help Diego forge some of the more delicate parts. Truth be told, the dwarves have a sensitivity to temperature and control over the properties of metal that no other intelligent race can match, and they can even control the temperature of a furnace fire within one degree without any thermometer.

After discussion among the three of them, the caliber of the barrel of this rifle was finally set at 25cm, which can be called a real hand-held gun, and at the time of the initial test, Diego could not even shoot continuously, but after the enchantment treatment, its recoil was not even greater than that of the M1 Garand.
