Golden Harbor, somewhere in a wealthy district. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's easy to doubt the owner's taste when it's too opulent, but it's not uncommon in Golden Harbour.

In this place where comparisons are all the rage, all merchants are eager to put gold coins on the wall to show off their wealth, and when choosing business partners, they also tend to have merchants with the same financial strength.

And the comparison between the rich and the rich has contributed to this atmosphere, resulting in the fact that if there is no strength of gold coins on the wall, they will be excluded by others and unable to integrate into the circle.

So although it is too high-profile, it still chooses to decorate so "ordinary" that you can't see the slightest mystery of the Shadow Church.

That's right, this is one of the secret strongholds of the Shadow Church in Golden Harbor.

Just as Chen Yin was communicating ****** questions with the white-bearded dwarf, this palatial hall was particularly dignified. Several black-robed people gathered around the long table and were silent, and the black-robed man with gold threads on the cuffs standing at the top was even more solemn.

“…… Are you really sure it's the Nether? The black-robed old man with a gold thread on his cuff asked in an astringent voice.

"My subordinates can't be sure." The man in a red uniform kneeling on the ground said that if Chen Yin stood here, he would definitely be able to recognize this person as one of the two guards who followed the previous executive officer of the "Golden Harbor Management Committee".

"But...... The feeling as if even the soul was about to be sucked through was exactly the same as what the Word said, and only this was certain for the subordinates. The kneeling soldier bowed his head and said, his current posture and bright red uniform resembling a cooked lobster.

“…… Is there still no news from Lord Yu? The black-robed old man frowned.

"Nope. I've heard that the ghoul host Ponzot has also disappeared, and it seems that no news has been heard since entering the Orc Plateau. A black-robed man next to him replied.

"Lord You'll be fine, his strength is far beyond ordinary legends, even the airship of the Holy Light Church may not be able to cause trouble to Lord You." Another black-robed man strenuously denied it, "I guess Lord Yu should be on some secret mission, right?" The formation after entering the Orc Plateau is kept secret, so we don't receive the notice here......"

"Or else...... Shall we inform the above? ...... is the news of the discovery of the Netherworld here? "The person who spoke before was still a little uneasy.

"......" The black-robed old man was silent for a full 5 minutes, and finally slowly knocked on the table, shook his head and said, "No, we can't report such important news so recklessly, first of all, we have to make sure if it is a Netherworld ......."

"Then I'll find a relationship and ask Lord Yu about their progress, at least let me know Lord You'...... To what extent they have carried out, as long as it does not involve specific actions, I believe that I still have this face. The black-robed old man finally made a decision.

"But the problem now is that guy's strength is far beyond our capabilities, even if he is not a true legend, but he can hold such a powerful legend card ring at will, which means that he at least has quasi-legendary-level strength. But we ......," another black-robed man voiced his concern again.

“…… Maybe we can apply for a Heavenly Punishment to test his strength? At the end of the long table, a sweet woman's voice rang out. I didn't expect that there was a woman among so many black-robed people.

"But if he's really a legend, what if he loses Heavenly Punishment?"

Several black-robed people began to analyze the stakes and delve into how to get the best results......

On the contrary, the old man in the black robe sat down slowly, looking thoughtfully at the woman who had just spoken out and was covered in the black robe.

"I have an idea...... "The black-robed old man suddenly spoke, and then the buzzing in the entire gorgeous hall gradually quieted down, "Why don't we send someone to test him......"

“…… Subordinates are willing to die! A black-robed man suddenly knelt down.

The black-robed old man smiled and shook his head: "I'm not asking you to test his strength with your life, I just want to find someone to probe his bottom and test him on the premise of not arousing his vigilance...... Of course, the main thing is the whereabouts of Lord You, if you get the news of Lord You, then there is no need to try. ”

"But how can we not tempt him with other vigilance?"

"It's up to our little Aisha." The black-robed old man looked at the female black-robed woman with a kind face, "I heard that that person had a very ambiguous relationship with Barana when he first came, a single man, who can resist the temptation?" You say yes, little Aisha. ”

“…… Subordinates obeyed. The slender black robe saluted, unable to make out the expression she had hidden under her hood.

"High! It's really high! If the Golden Harbor Double-Flower is interested in a man together...... I believe that a lot of men will go to his own trouble, right? Your stratagem is simply breathtaking! ”

A black-robed man who had been silent hurriedly patted his ass.

"Oh hehe...... It's not a ......," the black-robed old man brushed his beard and smiled reservedly.

But no one noticed the expression of the girl known as "Little Aisha" hidden under the hood.

“…… Damn ......"

……

Edwood Firearms Workshop.

Chen Yin was slowly sipping an unknown drink, watching a few dwarf aunts sit in a row at the wooden table, with a clear division of labor for grinding powder, rolling paper tubes, and packing gunpowder, which seemed to be somewhat of an assembly line.

Seeing the white-bearded dwarf directing the others around, he didn't seem to think much about it, and Chen Yin was also slightly relieved.

In fact, it was not a whim to ask the dwarves for news, but such a plan had been planned for a long time. Compared with Chen Yin's own headless fly-like probing, these local forces can use more strength.

At least, this kind of exchange of conditions for each will not allow Chen Yin to go deep into the entanglement of local interests, and after achieving his goal, he can attack and retreat and defend, and he does not have to worry about being used without knowing it.

"Is that so?" The old dwarf interrupted Chen Yin's afternoon tea.

"No, the wings are too big here, just a small piece is enough." Chen Yin pointed to the drawings in front of the old dwarf.

On the snow-white paper, charcoal is drawn on a thick, short, chubby flying machine that resembles a cartoon rocket.

No, to be precise, this is the design of the one-headed bomb that Chen Yin casually drew to the old dwarf.

There are many other drawings next to this picture, they are very different from the single-headed bomb designed by Chen Yin, it seems that Chen Yin's design has aroused the dwarf's creative inspiration, and he has drawn various single-headed bullet designs one by one......

Of course, most of them are the product of assumptions, which are neither aerodynamic nor too heavy, and it is difficult for such a heavy projectile to exert its due power in the current situation of this charge.

"This ...... It's ugly. The old dwarf looked at the chubby "cartoon rocket" on the table and shook his head vigorously, "No, no, taking out this kind of thing is simply damaging the reputation of our Edwood Firearms Workshop!" No, no, absolutely not! ”

“…… It's a mature design, blown through the wind tunnel! What's the deal with that knife over there? Do you want to shoot a dagger? Chen Yin couldn't help but complain about the drawings drawn by the old dwarf......

"I'd put up with it if it was just a triangular arrow or something, but what are those knives, axes, and even stabbing balls? Does it work? Do you really think that the warhead was thrown by hand? ”

"Wind tunnel? Hmph, anyway, you're too ugly, and how can such a blunt warhead penetrate the protection? A slightly better armor will be able to block your warhead, and if it's some spirit beast with scales and thick skin, you can't even tickle someone. The old dwarf was a little annoyed when he heard Chen Yin's counting.

"......," Chen Yin was stunned after listening to the old dwarf's complaints.

yes, why didn't I think of this question?

On Earth, the reason why the single-headed bullet is designed as this kind of round and square hollow lead bullet is mainly because the stopping effect of this ammunition is very obvious, and the energy carried by the lead bullet can be completely converted into destructive force.

So whether it's a strong person, a reindeer, or even a bear, a single shot will lose its combat effectiveness, and if it happens to scratch a vital organ, then a single bullet can be fatal.

But this is not Earth, and the bullets are not overflowing. On the contrary, since it is difficult for ****** to penetrate the defenses of the strong, the power of the bullet here is too weak, and there is no need to enhance the stopping effect.

This is also one of the reasons why Chen Yin later felt that scattered bullets were more useful than single-headed bullets.

"So that's it?" Chen Yin was stunned.

"What's wrong?" The old dwarf blushed for a while, because he knew that Chen Yin's design was more practical and mature than his "swords, guns, swords, halberds", but he was a little dissatisfied with what Chen Yin said......

Unexpectedly, after a few words, Chen Yin was silent, which made the old dwarf a little embarrassed.

“…… Wait, lend me a charcoal pen. Chen Yin snatched the short, thick charcoal in the old dwarf's hand, pulled out a new piece of white paper and began to draw on it.

Soon, a long, metal pole with a tail appeared on paper.

"This ...... Is it a warhead? The old dwarf looked surprised, "This is too thin, isn't it?" Not even your cannon...... Do you want to go in a lot of races at once? ”

"No, it's not over yet." Chen Yin smiled slightly, and drew 3 views of the bullet stock next to the metal rod. It is two semi-cylinders with wind resistance devices that are joined together and buckled on a metal pole.

Anyone who likes military affairs on Earth will see at a glance that what Chen Yin drew is a "tail stabilized shelling armor-piercing shell", which is the standard ammunition for high-pressure smoothbore tank guns that emerged after World War II.

This kind of "armor-piercing projectile" has a depth of penetration that is difficult to achieve in traditional rifled shells, armor-piercing shells, armor-shattering bullets, etc., and the production of single-headed bullets with this principle can just make up for the lack of power of muskets. I believe that even a tin can like Lancelot will become a dead can when it is "taken off".

"This ...... This and this...... It's a work of art! The old dwarf looked at Chen Yin's drawings with bright eyes, "This ...... It's also a 'mature' design, right? ”

"Hmm." Chen Yin nodded, "In our place, this kind of ammunition is called the 'tail stabilized shelling armor-piercing projectile', which is specially designed to deal with highly armored targets. ”

The old dwarf used charcoal to simulate the flight of the armor-piercing projectile, and his two hands simulated the bullet stock, and as the armor-piercing projectile flew forward, the butt with greater resistance naturally separated and detached......

"Hulling...... Sure enough, it was shelling. What a genius design. ”

The old dwarf shook his head in admiration.

Chen Yin smiled slightly: "This is nothing, in our place, the liter model of this kind of ammunition has been widely equipped, that's it......"

Chen Yin blackened the end of the metal rod and continued: "In this way, the ******** with the delayed fuse installed here, after the armor is pierced in the front section, the ******** behind will explode in the target's body!" It's a pity that we don't have the conditions to ...... now, whether it's a fuse or explosives"

"Genius! Oh my God, how can there be such a genius in the world!? The old dwarf's eyes lit up, "What if...... If this weapon is invented, then even an ordinary person can easily kill a spirit beast or a high-ranking knight with a cannon!! Oh, my God...... We will rewrite history! ”

“…… Don't get excited, this kind of thing is enough for you to climb the technology tree for hundreds of years......" Chen Yin looked helpless.

“…… Alas. Although the old dwarf couldn't understand the words that popped out of Chen Yin's mouth, he actually knew how difficult it was to study.

If nothing else, their current explosives are not stable enough to make such a warhead - as long as there is a violent impact, those ****** will explode, so even if there is a delayed message, they will not be able to produce explosives with high enough stability.

"Let's get here today, I'll come back when I have time," Chen Yin pointed in the direction ......of the central fountain of the Golden Harbor, "I live in Barana, if you have news here, you can always look for me there." ”

"You...... Q: What does the Worm Sleep Do? As far as I know, the worm is something that is entangled in ancient nightmares......"

"Huh?" Chen Yin was halfway through, when he suddenly paused and turned around with a surprised face.

"Didn't you say you didn't know?" Chen Yin's face was unhappy.

“…… You're asking about 'the place where worms sleep', and of course I don't know. The old dwarf smiled slyly, "There is only one place I know, and that is the Land of the Sealed Demons. ”

"I'm suddenly interested in this 'Demon Sealing Land', I wonder if you can talk to me?" Chen Yin dragged over the wooden chair that was a little low and sat down again.

"I'd like to hear the story of one of your toys too." The old dwarf laughed like a fox that had stolen a fishy fox.

"Toys?" Chen Yin let out a soft snort from his nostrils, and without saying a word, he grabbed the paper shell scattered bullets sealed next to him and filled them into the double-barreled shotgun, aiming at the 15-meter target with two shots.

"Bang! Bang! ”

Two crisp gunshots rang out, and the wooden rake that had just been replaced and had not been used a few times was beaten to pieces by countless steel balls! Flying sawdust was scattered all over the ground, and only a piece of wood with holes left to hang there.

The old dwarf couldn't help but widen his mouth.

"This!?" (To be continued.) )
