73. Gunpowder test (kneel and beg for recommendation!) )

Located in the back garden of the palace.

Maurice III was finally persuaded by Nancy, as the youngest daughter of the heirs, and the only daughter, Nancy was the 'heaven' in the kingdom of Huenzhelai.

As long as Nancy doesn't make too many requests, Maurice III will do his best to accommodate them.

In this overly doting environment, it is incredible that Nancy can grow into a well-informed girl.

And what this little girl brings to the table today will change the direction of the whole world.

"Is that all there is to the White Flame Stone?"

Nancy looked at the pile of white crystals spread out on the ground.

It has been a day since Maurice III gave the order, and there is no shortage of stinky stones in the kingdom of Shuenzhelai, which can be found on several islands in the sea area of the kingdom of Xiuenzhelai.

But the white flame stone is extremely scarce.

Stinky stone, the product of sulfur called on the camp side, is itself one of the raw materials for making sea salt soap, so the kingdom of Shuen Zhelai has a large amount of stinky stone.

On the other hand, the effect of the White Flame Stone is much smaller, and it will only be used by some casters when they are doing alchemy experiments.

The white flame stones spread out on the ground were still the inventory that Maurice III had gone to find some alchemist to buy.

"Nancy, how much do you want?"

Maurice III looked at the white crystals piled up into a hill in the clearing, and from his point of view, the disappearances weighed at least half a cow.

This large pile of white flame stones is enough for the alchemy workshop to last an entire year.

"Not enough, that's still too little."

Nancy remembers that the notes were about to make black powder, and white flame stone was the most expensive material.

"Too little... Nancy, what kind of miracles can you show with these alchemical materials? ”

Maurice III looked at the piles of alchemy materials piled up in the clearing, whether it was stinky stone or white flame stone, it was very common, not to mention something like charcoal, which could be found everywhere.

What miracles can these three items perform when combined? Maurice III imagined that his daughter would come up with alchemical materials such as 'unicorn horns', 'women's whiskers', and 'cat's steps', which just sounded powerful and mysterious.

"Dad helped me find some empty barrels."

Ignoring her father's suspicions, Nancy began to process the materials at hand.

She knew that if she wanted to convince her unreliable father, it was absolutely useless to rely on words alone, and Nancy needed to toss a little bit of a big move! It's like the arrival of the gods!

"Barrels? The kind you mean for sake brewing? ”

"It doesn't matter what kind of barrel it is, but it must be dry inside! Do not get wet. ”

While Nancy was looking for a container for the gunpowder, she began to mix the ingredients in proportions with a bowl for pounding medicine, which was made of wood.

Before leaving, Lu Cheng also told Nancy a friendly reminder: "If you don't want to lose arms and legs, it's best to use wooden tools throughout the manufacturing process, and don't let any fire-breathing creatures run in, such as this lizard." ’

When Lu Cheng said this, he happened to grab a fire-breathing fiery lizard, the kind of lizard that would not be found in a coastal area like the Xiuen Zhelai Kingdom.

All of these alchemical materials were handled by Nancy herself, and it took almost five hours to complete the multiple steps from grinding to drying.

As an honor student of the Emansis Secret Order, Nancy's alchemy grades were not bad, and soon she made a large pile of small black granular powder according to the steps Lu Cheng said.

"Black powder."

Nancy grabbed a small portion of the black particle with her index finger and thumb and fiddled it in her hand.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, Nancy herself would have had a hard time believing that this small particle had the power to destroy the world.

"This is the miracle of the gods?"

Maurice III didn't know much about alchemy either, so when Nancy was making gunpowder, all he could do was watch from the sidelines, and run to the kitchen himself to get desserts and other foods for his daughter.

Because Nancy had instructed the experiment to be kept secret, Maurice III emptied the garden behind the court, and no one was allowed to enter it.

"That's right." Nancy put down the powder powder in her hand and opened the note again, comparing the record of high-quality black powder with the one she had made.

The appearance looks exactly like what is stated in the notebook, but it is doubtful that it will be as powerful as it is written.

"How do we use it? Does the next step need to settle like a drink? Maurice III patted the barrel that he had ordered his servants to find.

"No, just eat it."

Nancy is in the midst of the joy of successfully making black powder, so she shows her side as a little girl and makes a joke on her father.

"Eat?"

Maurice III hesitated for a moment, but he still believed his daughter's words, grabbed a small pile of gunpowder in one hand, and prayed to a large number of gods before eating.

Perhaps Maurice III did not know that it was the god who gave his daughter this knowledge, so he prayed to the gods he believed in.

"God of forging, thank you for the experience of the hammer, God of War..."

"Father! Father! ”

Nancy couldn't stand it anymore, and she interrupted Maurice III's prayer again.

"Nancy, wait, I have to greet the gods of the sea and the gods of fire, maybe they..."

"It's called black powder, and it's not meant to be eaten! I lied to you before! ”

Speechless, Nancy picked up the pile of black powder in front of her and put it into the wooden barrel that Maurice III had found, which was so large that it could hold Nancy's petite body.

The barrel was used by the court to make wine, and there was an island in the kingdom of Shuen Zhelai that was rich in purple crystals, and it turned into a delicious drink after a while in the barrel.

"Not for food? So how to use this black particle? ”

As far as Maurice III knew, nine out of ten alchemical products created by those spellcasters were potions, and there were so many strange things in the potions.

At least these black particles don't have the weird stuff like frog legs and eyeballs.

"It needs to be lit, but not now!" Nancy left a small handful of the black powder she had refined and put it in the wooden bottle, and put everything else in the wooden barrel.

A large amount of black powder filled three-quarters of the barrel, and the weight of the barrel had sunk to ten Nancy, and she couldn't hold it.

When she was done, she looked left and right, and there was only some charcoal left in the garden that hadn't been used up.

"Father, we're going to test it in another place."

The winter frost had completely covered the garden, and Nancy's memories of the garden were after her mother's death, and she was unsure of the power of the explosive barrel in the middle of the garden.

"There is a possibility of exposure elsewhere, don't worry, my daughter... There is a magical barrier at the heart of the leyline, and no amount of magic can hurt us! Maurice III's tone was full of confidence.

"This is the father you are talking about."

Nancy thought that even if she was testing the power of explosives in her back garden, she expected that the sound would attract a lot of attention, but this was the safest place to test.
