Chapter 7 After January~
The faint light of the early morning has been polished by the night, scattered on the awakened city of Crane, and on the flat ground outside the city, the turquoise grass branches still carry the dew of the night, the sun shines, reflecting the uncertain shape, the whole heaven and earth are filled with a slightly cool breath that relaxes the nerves, a young man in black clothes calmly walked through the grass, making a rustling sound, the hem of his clothes became a little wet because of the dewdrops, but he didn't care.
All his attention was on the dark steel in his hands.
It is a work of art, the slender body of the spear glows in the sun, and the shell is made of materials with excellent magic conduction, and there is a faint cyan glow on it, releasing a light breath like the wind.
"Barrett M82A1 drawings, the gun body is attached to the acceleration magic array, as well as the 'solidified' rune of the solid gun body, because it is a trial version, so the cost is not considered, the bullet uses the best materials currently available, the bullet is depicted with the 'wind speed' magic array, and the barrel has a mute rune to prevent the attacked enemy from discovering."
A flirtatious voice sounded behind the young man, and behind him, the raunchy young man's palm gently rubbed the blue stubble on his chin, and looked at the firearm that was cold in the morning light with interest, and then raised his head to look at his companion in front of him, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with some surprise:
"Now that we're all here, let's try this firearm like this...... I'd like to have an explanation for the academy mages, but I didn't expect you to be so interested in these new weapons, Stewart. ”
"Every new weapon has the potential to revolutionize the battlefield."
Stewart didn't answer directly, his palm rubbed Barrett's slightly cool gun, slowly lifted the gun, held the gun in a standard posture, the muzzle of the gun pointed straight to the empty front, his eyes looked into the distance through the sniper scope with Eagle Eye Technique, and the subtle tremor of the grass in the extreme distance was clearly reflected in the iris, making his eyes glow with a touch of burning color.
According to Shuwen, this firearm can reach an effective strike distance of one kilometer even without enchantment.
If it could really be done......
A handful of flames ignited in the eyes of the young lone wolf, and the fighting spirit in the palm of his hand ignited, slowly injected into the body of the gun, and the spar sequence inside the gun was stimulated to light up, and a cyan light was smeared on the original dark and dull gun body, and this streamer kept circulating like a living thing, Stewart's breath instantly calmed down, and Charles, who had a somewhat frivolous look on his face, also became solemn, looking at the slowly lit Barrett sniper rifle.
For a while, only the gentle sound of the wind blowing through the grass tops sounded, and after a few breaths of silence, Stewart steadily knocked the trigger, accompanied by a violent vibration of the gun, a green streamer shot out from the muzzle, like the first light when the heaven and earth first opened, pulling out a straight line in the gap between heaven and earth, and the light reflected in Charles's eyes, blurring a very amazing trace.
Click!
The flask in Charles's hand was directly crushed by the consul who stirred in his heart, the sharp shards pierced his fingertips, and the red blood flowed down like an infusion, mixed with the wine and fell into the grass, but he didn't care at all, the huge shock in his heart had deprived him of all perception of his surroundings, his heart was beating wildly, pumping blood up and down his body, and a blush appeared on his raunchy face.
Looking at Stewart, who slowly put down the firearm, Charles' Adam's apple shook up and down twice, and he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva, but his throat was still extremely dry, and he spoke with difficulty:
"Range ......"
“…… There is no specific calculation, but at least more than two kilometers......"
Stewart replied as if in a dream, and in front of him, the light had long since dissipated, and a straight line went straight into the distance, and the grass that had grown freely beneath it seemed to have been cut by countless blades.
Click-
The gun was lightly pressed to the ground, and Stewart exhaled a heavy breath of turbidity, and an uncontrollable frenzy appeared in his eyes:
"The attack power level has reached the peak of the knight level, but I have only just reached the knight level!"
"The rate of fire is extremely strong! Extremely long range! ”
“………… This is just a trial version......"
Charles, who was on the side, also recovered from the shock and reminded: "The power of mass-produced firearms is definitely not so great!" ”
"I know!"
Stewart, who was on the side, carried the trial version of the Barrett sniper rifle, turned around and walked slowly towards Crane City, his eyes were bright, and he said to Charles on the side as he walked: "You don't need mute runes, reinforcement runes can also be reduced, you only need the rate of fire and range, as well as the ability to pierce armor!" ”
"Increase the range to the limit!"
"Also, I remember Lord Shuwen saying that there are design drawings for propulsion devices?"
"Huh? Mobile?! ”
Charles on the side raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Stewart with some kind of fanaticism on his face, in his mind, a thought flashed like lightning, causing his pupils to shrink suddenly, and a certain moving color appeared on that bohemian face, and his steps couldn't help but pause:
"You're going to create a new class?"
“…………”
Stewart's words stopped abruptly, his footsteps stopped, and he looked back at Charles slightly, he had a thin face, prominent cheekbones, and a hooked nose added a bit of gloom to him, but now, his blue eyes were burning with a burning light, which made the whole person feel a lot more upright, like a pilgrim monk, and his voice was even a little hoarse because of the over-surging mood.
“…… Not bad. ”
"Range! Rate of fire! Perfect Attack Power Amplification! ”
"Just give me enough maneuver and I'll let fear grapple over all enemies! I'm going to let everything I see fall within Barrett's range...... The life of a military general lies on the battlefield, if I can let me show this ability to the fullest, even if I really worship under Chu Lie, I am also willing to eat! ”
Charles's expression changed slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at the unruly lone wolf in front of him, and the latter also looked at Charles without flinching, there was a certain piety and fanaticism in his eyes, and the atmosphere between the two became a little solemn for a while, and this somewhat unsettling solemnity was rising at a very fast speed.
Trample! Trample! Trample!
At this moment, the sound of hurried horses' hooves sounded, and a knight in black armor drove a war horse, rushing towards the direction of Crane City at a very fast speed, Charles turned his gaze away and looked behind the knight, where a large shadow shrouded the earth, as if some kind of giant beast was leisurely stretching its body in the sky, cruising freely.
The archon's gaze was in the sky, and an airship sprayed with an eagle pattern with wings spread slowly approached, and after a moment of silence, Charles slowly spoke:
"President Brent has sent his own airship over, and that's his sincerity."
"Stewart, you're different from those craftsmen, and the demands you make aren't comparable to some material drawings."
"If you want to be trusted, you know what to do......
The flame-like light in Stewart's eyes slowly extinguished, the look on his face returned to calm, he gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, and looked up at the airship in the sky like Charles, and chuckled:
"I know."
"However, if you are willing to let me experiment with weapons, I'm afraid you don't plan to let me run away for a long time...... Since I had planned to do so for a long time, I am so stingy now......"
"Miserly...... It's good to be stingy. ”
Charles shrugged his shoulders and returned to a lazy look on his face:
"After all, human life is still very valuable."
“…… Truly. ”
Silence resumed among the two, and at the gate of the city watched the airship slowly enter the city of Crane, and at the same time watching this behemoth, in addition to these two people, there were also those ordinary people who got up early to work with expectations for the future, but these people just looked at it twice, praised it, and turned to work with greater passion.
"Wow...... This is the airship of this world! ”
"It looks so good, young master~"
In a slightly better house, Yingcao put her hands on the windowsill and looked at the behemoth in the sky with her eyes shining, and in the house, Gen Yudou, who had changed into the daily clothes of this world, handed a cup of tea to the Qingfang owner who came to visit.
"Please."
"Thank you, young master."
First of all, he saluted meticulously, and the owner of the Qingfang respectfully took the tea cup handed by Yuan Youdou, took a sip gently, feeling the flow of the slightly hot tea soup between his lips and tongue, and a pair of eyes looked at the young man who looked harmless with a gentle smile, and after a moment of silence in his heart, his eyes became firm, and he put the tea cup on the table at hand, and said in a deep voice:
"Young Master...... I don't know if I should mention one thing or not. ”
“…… If you don't think you should mention it, don't mention it. ”
Yuan Youdou smiled slightly, but the words he said choked the Qingfang owner's throat, but then the young man shook his head with a smile and said, "Just kidding, kidding......"
"But...... I'm kind of aware of what you're going to say. ”
"Huh?"
The owner of the Qingfang was slightly stunned, and saw Yuan Youdou holding the somewhat rough tea cup with both hands, the gentle and harmless smile on his face was slightly constricted, his lips pursed slightly, and a touch of majesty and calmness that did not match his age appeared on his still very young face, rubbing the tea cup with his fingers, looking at him and slowly speaking:
"Are you worried that we will become vassals of humanity......"
A low voice sounded in his ears, and the palm of the Qingfang owner trembled slightly, and he listened to Yuan Youdou's voice continue to be unhurried, and fell into the air with a heavy feeling of thought:
"Don't worry, although I have human blood, I am also the heir of my grandfather, and this issue has also been considered, the coexistence of the two races must be mutually restrained for this common purpose, avoid conflict, and let people and youkai get used to each other's existence......"
"Chu Lie and we are friends of life and death, and we can be trusted, but the friendship between races is not something that can be influenced by personal friendship, if you want to have the premise of coexistence, you must show strength that is comparable to the human race in this world......"
The young man's expression was slightly stunned, listening to the orderly voice ringing in his ears, the young man in front of him leaned back, leaning on the back of the chair, the golden yang guan poured down from the windowsill, and scattered straight on the young man's body, as if plated with a layer of gilt, but the face was still hidden in the shadows, the expression was calm, the posture was like a thunderbolt, and it slammed into the depths of the sea of memories of the young man, and the calm and waveless heart lake like an ancient well immediately set off a monstrous wave, and another body from the monstrous wave, Slowly walked out of the yellowed years hundreds of years ago, with a rebellious and heroic demeanor.
One is quiet, the other is heroic and unruly, but the two bodies seem to have crossed hundreds of years of barrier and overlapped into one in front of them.
The so-called lord of the ghost, the body of the hundred ghosts at the forefront of the night walk!
The Qingfang owner's eyes widened slightly, and he whispered:
“…… General ......"
"What do you say? Young Fang Owner? ”
"No, nothing."
The owner of the Qingfang was stunned, woke up from the illusion, and denied Yuan Youdou's inquiry with a smile, and at this moment, a desolate musical instrument sound sounded leisurely, its sound was desolate and vast, but it was ethereal and tranquil, like the wind blowing on the top of the mountain, Yuan Youdou's voice paused, his eyes raised and looked along the windowsill, and the corners of his mouth flashed a nostalgic smile:
"Shakuhachi, ......"
"I've only been here for a month, but I feel like a long time has passed......"
“…… Oh, yes. ”
The owner of the Qingfang bowed slightly, and well restrained the distraction in his eyes, just quietly listening to the desolate voice lingering in his ears, his expression was calm and calm.
The tallest building in the whole crane is the high pavilion that was originally used as a festival in the town, and a handsome young man in a black and red kimono sits at the top of this pavilion, looking down on the thriving city, shakuhachi is close to his mouth, his expression is indifferent and quiet, but there is a slight sense of loneliness, a few birds have landed on his shoulders very obediently, tilting his head and quietly listening to the desolate and distant sound of blowing, this sound is far away, until the clouds are above the clouds, I don't know if it is an illusion, even the flowing clouds no longer flutter, as if standing here.
Whew!!
At this moment, a sharp chirp piercing through the golden cracked stone suddenly sounded, and the quiet and desolate atmosphere that had been lingering around was paused, and the Ibaraki boy's blowing action stopped, and raised his eyes slightly, in the layers of clouds and mist, a white falcon with a faint sense of holiness and nobility retracted its wings, and shot like a sharp arrow into a house in Klan, where a handsome young man was already waiting there, raised his arm, and the pure white falcon landed firmly on his arm.
“…… Chu Lie ......"
The Ibaraki boy's eyes narrowed slightly, his face was calm, and the next moment, the desolate and vast timbre rose leisurely again, and in that house, Chu Lie took off the special letterhead on the eagle's claws, and the pure white streamer on it flickered, releasing a pure will to firmly protect this fragile letterhead.
"It's finally here......"
Chu Lie unfolded the letterhead in a low voice, and the contents of the letter written in ciphertext appeared in front of him.
"My disciple, the news you asked me to seek, the secret elixir of the snake of the ring......"
