Chapter 117: Hand Cannon
Now those samurai and ashigaru are on land, whether they are fighting or fleeing, Zhang Zicheng thinks that he can't handle it as a person who has never been on the battlefield, so he waits for the time being, wanting to wait for them to get on the ship before making a move.
And in this process, Zhang Zicheng also asked Rego by the way: "Do you know the Grim Reaper?" โ
As he spoke, Zhang Zicheng also described the classic skeleton image holding a sickle.
Hearing this, Rego thought for a while, and then really nodded: "You know, Death, there are many legends and stories about it, but few people can apply it." Although I have seen two of them, the general idea and theme are only exhortations to cherish life, and there is nothing special. โ
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Zicheng suspiciously: "Are you ...... Have you ever seen the Grim Reaper? โ
Zhang Zicheng nodded, and told his story.
Hearing that the Grim Reaper would shout 'Hell' in surprise and run away with a smoke, Rego fell into confusion as expected.
Zhang Zicheng saw that he didn't understand either, so he could only shake his head and stop thinking about this problem.
Time passed for another moment, and because Xiao Wu was also placed in the crack space to heal, and by the way, it also served as an insurance to monitor the empty ring and not to close the space-time pocket, so Zhang Zicheng could only observe the enemy with the naked eye.
I saw those ashigaru after plundering, and they were also arrogant at the gate of the city. And due to the language barrier, the city wall only responded with limited scolding.
Later, several ships were seen to set up devices similar to small catapults, and throw some irregularly shaped objects into the city.
Zhang Zicheng could see clearly with his psionic strengthened eyesight, which were the corpses of some animals.
And before the animal carcasses were thrown, they were all touched by the hat-wearing monks who had healed the Blue Ghost Lux before. After touching it, a faint green light was also evident on the corpse, and if it weren't for the night, it really couldn't be seen clearly.
Zhang Zicheng guessed that this should be the 'Ji Shuijing' in the mouth of the general before, but he didn't expect that the poisoner and the nurse were the same person, so the witch doctor was really not separated?
However, he had already seen the corpse poison unleashed by these people, and although the system did not detect any supernatural places at that time, in terms of effect, under the prayer of the priest, it was obvious that it was not as terrible as the real plague in history, and it was still in a balance that could be restrained.
But if you look at it this way, I don't know if antibiotics are still useful.
Before dawn came, the samurai and ashigaru got on board and left.
From the beginning to the end, the city is closed to the gate, with an attitude of either you come to attack the city, or if you don't attack the city, you will be less than compared, and you can really do the soldiers coming to the city, but there is almost no bloodshed.
If you don't count the green ghost wrestler who was poked in the skull by Xiao Wu, he rushed out and spilled blood on the street.
Zhang Zicheng stuffed the antibiotic into Rego's arms, and under Rego's confused expression, he spoke: "This is the medicine used in our world to defend against certain diseases...... Anyway, I'll write you a simple instruction for use, and you'll use these medicines to see if you can treat the sick people in the city, and then try to make contact with your Duke in a positive way as much as possible. You don't need to wait for me in the city, I'll look for you later. โ
When Rego heard this, his face suddenly turned pale.
But he still held the medicine box in his arms, nodded, and sighed: "Okay, I'll try not to die until you come back...... But I'm not supposed to be too efficient, so don't expect too much. โ
Zhang Zicheng nodded, and followed the boat in the direction of the downstream.
After approaching the distance, Zhang Zicheng did not rashly jump on the deck or jump into the window of the cabin, after all, he was not familiar with the construction of these ships, but the fact that he could squeeze so many people showed that it was very crowded inside, and it was likely that there was not enough space to dodge and sneak.
Therefore, he still looked at the city upstream, and slowly followed the boats, until the boats were about to go down the river and return to the sea, and then he began to move.
The reason for choosing to start here is that the boats going down the river are very fast, and the sky is already dark at this time, but they have climbed several mountains.
This distance, that is, Zhang Zicheng, who has spiritual energy, can keep up, and it will take at least a day or two for ordinary people to cross on foot, and it is difficult for them to have a chance to go upriver and plunder the village again to rest without boats.
So Zhang Zicheng took out the Magnum revolver in his arms.
"Bang!!"
As if it were a traditional cannon discharge, the deafening sound spread far away, startling countless birds.
With Zhang Zicheng's current reaction speed, his naked eye could already catch that when the primer of Magnum's bullet was fired, the muzzle in his hand simply turned into a wand using fireball magic, and the huge flame was no less than three burning torches tied together.
The thick barrel is completely worthy of the reputation of the 'hand cannon', the huge recoil of the shell being blasted out, the incomparable feeling of pressing the hand, is simply incomparably comfortable.
Almost at the same moment, the 'cannonball' slammed into the bottom of the wooden boat, causing a loud bang. The huge impact force shook the entire ship violently, and the wood of the keel of the hull instantly collapsed, and the debris scattered and splashed in all directions.
The breach widened rapidly, the crack spread to all sides, and the hull of the ship seemed to be torn apart by an invisible giant hand, forming a sore, like a greedy beast's mouth, frantically sucking the river water.
Zhang Zicheng couldn't help but be surprised when he saw such an effect.
He knew that Magnum's bullet was powerful, but the destructive power that could sink almost the entire ship with one shot was still somewhat unexpected by Zhang Zicheng.
But then, he was relieved.
Who made this a low-dimensional person who could kick a tree without using psionic energy?
Besides, there is still plenty of oxygen in this world, although Zhang Zicheng doesn't know much about modern gunpowder and thunder mercury, but at least oxygen-assisted combustion still has a little impact.
"If only there were dragons in European mythology in this world." Zhang Zicheng touched the hand cannon in his hand and couldn't put it down.
He was already imagining how cool it would be to hunt dragons with this thing.
Of course, the premise is that the dragons of this world are only large beasts, not the almost demigod alien archmages of World of Warcraft or traditional online texts.
In the process, the people on board were already buzzing and screaming.
Zhang Zicheng didn't bother to listen to the system's translation, so he raised his hand directly and aimed at the second ship.
"Bang โโ!" "Bang โโ!!" "Bang โโโโ!!"
Gunshots rang out one after another, and the revolver was not like the newly developed guns and artillery, which took dozens of seconds to reload each time, but with this intensity of firepower, it could be fired continuously, and there was also the physical strength to resist recoil...... The thrill of shooting is indescribable.
Since Zhang Zicheng was standing at a fairly high position, his shooting was top-down. Except for the first shot, which aimed at the bottom of the ship to ensure the effect, and after seeing the power of Magnum's bullets in this world, he simply shot at random.
This kind of high-power artillery that is easy to fire in bursts is already comparable to the saturation fire of high-firepower ships in the Age of Discovery, and it may even be more efficient, and the accuracy is completely crushed.
A few ships were just a hundred meters away, and they easily turned into a pile of wreckage that went down the river.
In the process of bullet piercing through the cabin, the countless human bodies that inadvertently penetrated were barely intact stumps, and only clumps of rotten flesh could be seen spreading along the river from a distance.
โโโโ
The surface of the water burst open, and an indigo fish leaped out of the bottom and smashed straight to the shore.
It looks somewhat like a shark, but its nose is sharp, jagged, and its eyes resemble the human pupils of yellow eyes on a black background.
And on its dorsal ridge, there is a thin figure, clutching its dorsal fin until it lands on the shore and does not let go of its hand.
Ji Shuijing, who was dressed in monk's clothes, climbed to the side with difficulty and coughed incessantly.
At the same time, the indigo shark gradually turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the air.
"What's that? The Shikigami you summoned? I don't know if that's the right name, but Shikigami seems to be a summon that belongs to the Onmyoji, right? โ
A voice sounded, and Ji Shuijing hurriedly raised his head and looked around hurriedly.
Immediately, the voice sounded again: "Huh? It turns out that you are a woman. โ
Ji Shuijing finally heard the source of the voice clearly this time, and when he looked up, he saw a man wearing a strange mask and wrapping his whole body standing on the thickest trunk of a large tree.
But his weight didn't seem to match his size, and the roots of the branches, which were almost thicker than his thighs, were constantly pressing down, and there was a faint tendency to be crushed by the other party.
"Who are you? Just ...... You did the attack just now? โ
Ji Shuijing coughed up a few more mouthfuls of water and asked weakly.
However, Zhang Zicheng, who was standing on a high place, had already seen what her hand was doing hidden under him, so he jumped down directly, and then kicked the other party over with a gentle kick.
It's really light, and the psionic energy is useless, and I don't kick it by kicking a football, but first put my toes on the opponent's shoulders before I start to exert my thighs. It's not so much a kick as a push.
But with such a force, it still directly overturned this Ji Shuijing, although her feet did not leave the ground, but her upper body almost drew a circle, and her back slammed into the ground, from lying on the ground to lying on the ground, and immediately let out a painful moan.
Zhang Zicheng did not show mercy to his subordinates because the other party was a woman, after all, he was also a ruthless person who could poison the city. He stepped forward, tore off the beads she was holding tightly, and asked casually, "What do you seem to be planning to launch just now, and how is this thing used?" โ
He was greeted only by the saliva that came out of Ji Shuijing's mouth, and he didn't know if it was spittle or the water he had just fallen into the river to drink.
However, Zhang Zicheng still carefully dodged it...... Who's the main one has green saliva? It's simply venom.
Sure enough, after the liquid fell to the ground, it quickly corroded into a small crater.
Although it doesn't seem to be very powerful, Zhang Zicheng can't say whether the protective clothing can resist it, in case it can't, the protective clothing with a hole in it may not be able to resist the other party's poison.
And this poison doesn't seem to be Ji Shuijing's hole card, seeing that the distance was widened, she decisively pinched out two magic seals with one hand, and then Zhang Zicheng felt that the Buddha beads in his hand began to tremble violently.
"Tsk, it turns out that it can be activated remotely."
Zhang Zicheng threw the Buddha beads directly out, wanting to throw them back into the river, but in mid-air, a cloud of white smoke erupted from the position of the Buddha beads.
In an instant, the green ghost wrestler who had spurted blood above his head before smashed into the shallow water of the river bank from mid-air, splashing the river all over the sky.
Not only that, but two more people had already swam ashore from the middle of the broken river. And after them, there are some survivors who are also swimming towards this side one after another.
Zhang Zicheng even recognized the two leading people...... One of them was a samurai who used his sword qi and flew out of his sword light to slash at Xiao Wu. The other is the leading general who wears the most luxurious hat.
"Tsk...... The most critical few people did not die. โ
Having said that, the expression on Zhang Zicheng's face was not heavy.
This was not too unexpected for Zhang Zicheng, who had no intention of targeting them for sniping from the beginning. As a few powerhouses in the fleet, and in a worldview with extraordinary powers, it's only natural that they can survive.
Zhang Zicheng had intentions in this regard...... After seeing Magnum's power, Zhang Zicheng also wanted to try it even more, what was his combat effectiveness after being strengthened by spiritual energy.
From this point of view, it is the female monk named Ji Shuijing who needs to be careful...... After all, it's poisonous.
"Bastard ......" The general who was wearing a gorgeous hood and wearing the world's feet and big clothes, after seeing Zhang Zicheng, the bloodshot under his eyes burst out.
Although they don't know why this man wearing a strange helmet attacked him and others, they themselves did not come to this land to engage in diplomacy, and they have long had psychological expectations for possible resistance.
It's just that he really didn't expect that the aborigines' resistance this time would be so fierce and violent.
"Kill him!"
As soon as the general gave the order, these survivors who were already standing on the shore immediately let out a roar and rushed towards Zhang Zicheng.
Zhang Zicheng was not polite, he directly raised his hand, aimed at the warrior who could pull the sword light and use the sword qi, and pulled the trigger.
"Bang โโ!!!"
The familiar sound of explosions was heard, and a cloud of blood mist bloomed among the crowd.
It was as if the pause button had been pressed on the charges of all the samurai and ashigaru, and even the hideous roar on their faces almost seamlessly turned into astonishment.
"One...... The Blademaster ......"
Ji Shuijing's eyes widened, looking at this scene in disbelief.
It can almost be said that among all the people present, the most powerful Sword Saint who fought head-on turned into a ball of red fireworks.
And in comparison, the general who drew his saber seemed even more unacceptable to this scene.
He stared at the Magnum pistol in Zhang Zicheng's hand, revealing a kind of horror, anger, and hidden greed and madness: "Those...... The attack, unexpectedly, was fired by such a small handcuff?! โ
Handcuffs?
Zhang Zicheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
Sure enough, this group of guys' knowledge of technology obviously does not match the local European-like era.
The only one present, who was not deterred by Zhang Zicheng's firepower, was probably the wrestler wearing the mask of a green ghost.
"Drink, โโ!!"
After he came ashore from the shallow water, he immediately roared and threw himself at Zhang Zicheng.
It's just that when he was hidden in the Buddhist beads, it was obvious that he couldn't wear his weapon, so he just attacked Zhang Zicheng in a sumo stance.
But even so, on his body, the phantom of the green ghost not long ago still reappeared.
Seeing this, the general did not stop it, and even immediately clenched his saber.
He stared at Zhang Zicheng, wanting to see if the other party would use that powerful handcuff.
If not...... It shows that this handcuff is indeed the same as an ordinary handcuff or even an artillery, and can only be fired single!
In that case, there is nothing to fear!
Seeing this, Zhang Zicheng raised the hand cannon again, but then hesitated a little.
After all, Magnum bullets are actually full of precious...... The Mexican town linked by the earth at this time, it's really hard to say how much stock there is.
If you only have your own box, it's better to save some money.
So Zhang Zicheng withdrew his hand cannon, and in the bright gaze of the leading general, he filled his fist with spiritual energy and slammed it into this green ghost wrestler.
"Poofโโ!
Everyone present could hardly believe their eyes.
Obviously, this man has already withdrawn the handcuff that is comparable to a giant cannon......
However, the arm of the green ghost was like tofu encountering an iron rod, and it was pierced vertically by a fist that had no sharpness at all, and went straight into the forearm!
