Chapter 594: Missed?
Instead of heading directly to Santan, Luna and the others took a turn on the way, away from the main road leading from Stonenon to Santan, and hid behind a small hill.
Luna called her uncle and Carol away from the crowd for a while, then took out the jar from her bag again, and crouched on the ground to unbuckle the balls that were roughly bonded with wax one by one, and poured out the nitrocellulose inside, soaking it back in the alcohol.
Samuel and Carol couldn't help but be surprised when they saw that the ball was full of something similar to cotton wool, and Samuel even wanted to get his hands on it, but was slapped away by Luna.
In fact, although nitrocellulose is flammable and explosive, it is still relatively stable at a certain temperature, but that is under the premise of mature technical conditions.
However, what is most lacking in these years is the technical conditions, plus in this world, except for some basic chemical elements, many things are different from Luna's inherent knowledge reserves, and a small bomb with amazing power has been exploded, Luna really doesn't dare to let Samuel move anymore.
It doesn't matter if she's too cautious, or it's okay to say she's too timid, anyway, the older she gets, the less timid she is, and it's because she understands that she has less fearlessness because of ignorance.
The word explosives is simple to say, and the moment of explosion is even more spectacular, but as long as you understand its origin and development, you can get a glimpse of the long blood line dragged behind it.
Although this is an indispensable sacrifice in the process of scientific development, and it is heavier for one to die if he doesn't do it well, in fact, it is only a minority of the few who can be remembered, and everyone is inevitably selfish, not to mention that Luna does not want to be a science and technology maniac.
The most intuitive thing to implement to her is that no matter who wants to dedicate their lives to the development of science and technology, she and the people she cares about can't anyway!
The two dozen small balls were quickly emptied and thrown aside, and under the scorching sun, the residual alcohol on them quickly evaporated.
Holding the small glass jar of nitrocellulose and alcohol, Luna stood up and walked farther away, she poured the alcohol out of the jar, and returned to Samuel and Carol, who looked uncertain, and said:
"Look. ”
What to see?
Samuel and Carol looked at each other, but didn't say anything more, only following Luna's gaze to the small damp cotton wool not far away.
Time passed minute by minute, about ten minutes, and the scattered ball of nitrocellulose discarded by Luna on the ground suddenly burst into a large ball of fire, and the glass jar containing the cotton wool also shattered into several petals with a "click" because it could not withstand the instantaneous high temperature.
The firelight came and went as fast as it came, disappearing in the blink of an eye, while Samuel and Carol looked at Luna with a pale-faced face after the burst of fire ended.
"Let's go! Don't mention this again. Luna sighed, but she was much calmer than the two of them, mainly because the hidden danger was lifted, so that the heart in her stomach that had been hanging since the small bomb exploded finally fell back to its original place.
stepped on the land of the mother country, and experienced a big war before, and everyone was a little tired.
Samuel and Carol were still digesting the fleeting fire, so they didn't think about continuing their journey, but simply let everyone stay on this small hill and repair it for half a day, and then set off the next day to return to Santan City.
Luna was absolutely in favor of this, although she had not dealt with the feather soldiers with the guards before, but she should have been frightened, and now she felt that she could not lift her energy, so after hastily eating something, she went to find Ali to rest.
Speaking of which, it wasn't until this time that Luna discovered that Ali's pair of big wings are definitely treasures, not only can they shelter from the wind and snow in winter, but they can also act as a pergola in summer, although Ali's body temperature is not low, but nesting under its wings can ensure a constant temperature.
In the middle of summer, when the temperature can soar to 40 degrees Celsius and the earth is about to be scorched, it is absolutely unenviable.
Looking at the little niece who got under Ali's wings, Samuel wiped the hot sweat oozing from his head and followed, wanting to share the wings on the other side, but as every time before, he was swept away by Ali very unceremoniously.
"Stingy!" Samuel glared at Ali and shook his fist.
Ali tilted his head, picked up a pebble from the ground with his mouth, and then threw his head at Samuel with precision.
Samuel was stunned by the pebble on the head, which didn't hurt, but in exchange for a sneer from Luna, who poked her head out from under Ali's wings.
Glaring at his niece, Samuel suddenly saw that the golden corner of the bag that Ali had not let people take off his body all the way was exposed, and he couldn't help but smile, took out a gold coin from the small bag pinned to his waist, and shook it at Ali.
The golden coin shone in the sunlight, and Ali's eyes swirled around with the gold coin like a pendulum.
It wasn't until the coin finally stopped shaking that it quickly talked about it, and tried to take it with its mouth, but Samuel quickly dodged it, and Ali couldn't resist the temptation of the coin, so he cooed twice, and raised his wings on the other side.
Samuel got his wish and threw the gold coin to Ali with a hearty smile.
Ali took it with his mouth with precision, then turned his head and stuffed the gold coin into his bag containing his armor.
Seeing that her uncle had finally found a way to get what he wanted, Luna couldn't help but smile and retract her head, ignoring the two who were willing to fight and the other to suffer.
The next day, the repaired people were regrouped and set out on the road again, and the speed naturally soared, and before sunset, they saw the gate of the city of Santan, and the mission, which had been away from the old country for nearly a year, and had gone through all kinds of twists and turns, did not know who it was, and took the lead in cheering.
Luna, however, was drawn to the sight of several figures crouching or crouching on the ground.
"Is that, Barry?" Samuel also noticed the abrupt presence that had placed himself in the clearing.
"Like. Luna pursed her lips and replied softly, feeling that there was something strange about these people here, but I couldn't say what was strange.
Soon, Luna's doubts are answered by Chester.
"It's great to see that His Highness is fine, and along the way, we always miss. Chester greeted him with a smile, his little eyes winking at Luna.
"Always missed?" Luna asked, somewhat surprised.
Barry tore Chester, who wanted to continue explaining to Luna, and stepped forward:
"Don't listen to his nonsense. It's just a coincidence. ”
"Oh, did you happen to be waiting for us here, what kind of mission are you taking on?" Samuel asked with a smile as he glanced up and down at Barry, who was naked, and urged his crotch mount to step forward to block Luna behind him.
