Brother Loyal didn't expect that the otherworldly Molotov cocktail he had concocted could actually trigger a "Military Order Mission", which is also a unique benefit for manufacturing players, but this order is different at the moment.

While the order price for the quest reward is quite higher than the regular order, it also has a tight deadline of only three days, which is twice as short as the deadline for other orders.

Luckily, there are plenty of materials in Tracey's alchemy hut, and the Molotov cocktail is not a difficult thing to make.

Brother Loyal quickly got busy.

He's a clever guy who plans to "outsource" this job to a few NPC apprentices in the Alchemy Hut, and it's a big deal to give them some pay.

It's clear that Brother Loyal has bigger plans.

He wasn't content with making Molotov cocktails in the game, as evidenced by the fact that he asked Lady Tracey to use those tools.

This guy is clearly planning to play a big wave.

The tools he needed were the processed items that Lord Pa Ying had commissioned Lady Leenia to send to the Crimson Keep, a small production line that could make your own bullets and repair firearms, but no one in the camp would use them, so it was sent over and left in the camp warehouse to eat ashes.

I don't know how to be discovered by Brother Loyalty, this guy is as excited as he has discovered a new world.

He took the time to teach Trace's NPC apprentices the craft of making Molotov cocktails, and this thing only needs to pay attention to a few points to do well, and it is really not too difficult.

He also negotiated the "OEM price" with these NPC apprentices, and he generously gave 30 of the 60 gold rewards he could get for this order to the apprentices, which made them very motivated, and after Triss left, he began to tinker with the production of Molotov cocktails in the yard.

The basement in Tracey's hut is filled with all sorts of bottles, and you don't even need to collect them from local sources.

Thanks to the Archduke Bloodvulture's almost insatiable demand for spirits, the production of Molotov cocktails will not encounter any material problems at all, which is equivalent to Tracey making her own "contribution" to the military cause of Translasia?

"What are you doing sneaking here?"

In the dark alley outside Tracey's alchemy hut, Grand Duke Bloodvulture held a wine bottle to block Murphy, who was about to follow Brother Loyal and a few guys away, and she said in an unhappy tone:

"Are you planning to do something bad to my students?"

"I just want to see what they come up with."

Murphy explains:

"And I think this beautiful tutor should be more worried about his 'personal safety' than doing bad things to your students."

"Go, go, this is a big court, be a little more restrained."

Tracey rolled her eyes and slapped Murphy's hand away, and she said:

"But surely you don't come to me in the middle of the night without going to sleep, don't you like to take a nap at dawn? Is something wrong? ”

"Big deal."

Murphy informed Triss of Earl Sico's warnings and the possible involvement of the Wolf Venom Clan in the Gnoll Warlord, who immediately shook his head and said:

"Certainly not what old Edward instructed! That cunning old man has always been clear about these 'bottom line issues', and he can't risk offending Lord Pa Ying just to gather a group of gnolls to come and kill us.

The wisdom of the ancients could not have gone so far, the risks and benefits were not proportional at all!

I suspect that the leader of the Greypaw faction, Korando, made his own decision, and it is in line with the decline in the quality of the Wolf Venom Clan's rapid expansion after retreating to Greeney Island.

In order to expand the influence of the clan, the elder Edward indiscriminately incorporated all kinds of thugs and thugs on Greeney Island into his clan, which made his people no longer have the slightest dignity of midnight nobles.

In particular, these 'young people', who are less than 100 years old, like to treat traditions and warnings as nothing, but those who are born as thugs are very wild and ignore the law, and really dare to do anything. ”

Tris said disdainfully:

"They're messing with it, and I'm guessing you're going to tell Leenia about it?"

"Well, I'm going to sue."

Murphy took a few steps forward and said to Tracey:

"It would be even better if this matter could be passed on to Lord Pa Ying through Leonia, the current enemy, everyone is actively preparing to deal with the black plague, but the wolf venom clan is in contact with foreign enemies, no matter how merciful Lord Pa Ying is, he will definitely be furious when he encounters this kind of thing.

Then we can laugh at old Edward's bad luck. ”

"It's not that easy, the faction problem in the Bloodline is already a dead end that can't be solved."

Tracey is not so optimistic, she says:

"Just as the Earl of White Mountain can recruit a Blood Vulture traitor without Shanny's permission, so Krando can hook up with the Gnoll without reporting Edward, and even if it happens, it won't involve the old guy.

At most, he was disgraced.

I even think this in itself is a trick of old Edward to 'kill with a knife'.

In order to strengthen the control of the clan, send some 'unstable factors' into the forward war zone to give us trouble, so that whether we win or Clandor wins, old Edward will have a good harvest.

Murphy, don't underestimate the Ancients!

Compared to their strong strength, the wisdom formed after going through the world is the most difficult side for them to deal with, do you think they are as cunning as me, and they were not played by Sarokdal more than a hundred years ago?

Here's a lesson. ”

"Well, follow your teachings, my lord."

Murphy whispered, causing Tracey to pout, and she said:

"I'm not your lord."

"You can be."

The Vampire Lord stepped forward in the darkness of the dawn to grab Tracey's waist, bowing his head and kissing his former elder in the dark alley where no one was.

The good news is that Tracey is no longer resistant to this level of intimacy.

The bad news is, and only to that extent.

Murphy could feel that there was still some unknown hesitation in Tracey's heart, which kept her mind from making up her mind, knowing that she didn't hate being treated so gently and sweetly.

To go further, Murphy has to work like the Detective to find the source of Tracey's hesitation and destroy it with his own hands.

As the Proverb of Lord Paliano when he left.

If Murphy wants to pick a thorny rose, he will have to be patient.

"I thought you'd hit me in the face with a psionic impact."

After a few minutes of hot kisses, Murphy whispered:

"After all, my mischievous and greedy hand has been put where it shouldn't be. How do you stay in shape? Obviously, you didn't suck too much blood, and you didn't see how restrained you were when you ate. ”

"I'm going to have to give you some sweetness, my Earl, beauty is also one of the most important weapons in the hands of vampires."

Tracey snorted, reached out and pushed Murphy's hand away from her round buttocks, took a few steps back, and sent a seductive flying kiss to Murphy in the dark, the moment her long hair blocked her eyes, she said:

"Keep serving the Blood Vulture Clan, little Murphy, and if you do well, I don't mind giving you more sweetness."

Murphy shrugged.

Watching Tracey disappear into the first rays of the coming sunlight as a flying little bat, he hummed his own song and headed in the direction of the camp with his hands behind his back.

Triss had already given him a suggestion just now.

Perhaps he should have submitted this report to Lady Leenia after he had solid evidence, so that he would not look like a complaining long-tongued woman who was playing with rumors.

Although he hadn't met Lord Pa Ying yet, Murphy felt it was time to pay attention to how he looked in the eyes of that lord.

If you can hug this midnight golden thigh, your career will be effectively promoted.

——

"It's completely 18th century level processing equipment, the processing accuracy and production efficiency are a mess, if you count the all-manual design, I would give it a lower evaluation, no wonder they have never developed a reloading projectile, and are still using spherical projectiles.

I thought it was a bug in the background of the game, but I didn't expect the reason to be so simple.

It's purely because the machining accuracy is not enough!

Of course, it is also possible that we can only find machinery with this kind of precision in the novice village, and I heard that those halflings could make steam trains a hundred years ago, and the high-end manufacturing technology is still at this backward level. ”

In the warehouse of the camp, the loyal brother, who had been allowed to use these "strategic materials", walked around the small production line in front of him in a decent manner.

He first expressed his disdain for the tools in front of him in an "expert" manner, but then rubbed his hands together and said with a eager face:

"We're going to have to rework this thing first! When I go back and search for drawings on this, then we can try to produce pointed bullets. ”

"Ahh

Several young players who came here with Brother Loyalty looked at each other, and one of them whispered:

"Brother Zhongzhong, it's not me who said, what are you going to do! Listen to what you mean, do you want to do something very practicing? ”

"Huh? Are you not seeing it until now? ”

Brother Loyal grinned, took out a small bag from his psionic bag, and mysteriously poured out a pile of powder and placed it on the table.

He reached out and picked up the fine pieces of gray-black powder, and said:

"I've had this idea since before I entered the game, and I asked Woo Meow and Bang Brother to help me collect some of the various types of gunpowder in this game, and I've been doing these things in addition to alchemy for the past few days.

Let me tell you a little secret.

The basic ratio of gunpowder in this world is no different from ours!

Whether it's the gunpowder used in the dwarven musket or the one added to the witch hunter's explosives, it's an extension of the standard black powder, but the production level is very low, and the dwarves and halflings don't even understand the picric acid.

Not to mention the more powerful TNT and Black Sorkin. ”

"Hey, the background of the game, isn't it a nonsense made up by the development team?"

The little player next to him pouted and said:

"And people have psionic powers on this side! Steam technology, Brother Zhongzhong, you have also seen those unscientific steam furnaces, so small but can produce more kinetic energy than the internal combustion engine, which is completely contrary to the principles of physics.

Everyone has made it clear that they don't talk about physics!

You're still struggling with the history of gunpowder development in this game, isn't this a recipe for fish. ”

"Hey, you know a hair! Day by day know to play games, play and play! Do you understand the essence through the phenomenon? ”

Brother Loyal was suddenly unhappy, and he crossed his waist and scolded:

"People say this game is going to be 100% real, do you know what that means? If they really started from this point of view, it wouldn't have happened to make up the background of the game!

The halflings and dwarves in this game can make black powder, and I read the history books in the library and asked Professor Malcolm, a specialized historian.

The dwarves began using explosives and firearms in 400 A.D., seven hundred years ago!

Can you understand?

It's been 700 years since gunpowder and firearms appeared in this world! And dwarves and halflings have always used them as weapons of war, so why is it that 700 years of development still keep gunpowder technology at such a primitive stage?

But on the other hand, the gun revolution fueled by steam technology has been going on!

Instead of paying attention to ammunition, they are going further and further in the field of projectors, which does not correspond to the laws of development of things at all! We've all seen the self-hunting crossbow with our own eyes, and the mechanical level of that thing is at least the level of the 19th or even early 20th century.

Don't you think that's weird?

The level of processing and firearms are improving, and even the arithmetic orb is a fantasy computer prepared based on the mechanical calculation principle of the difference machine.

However, only the level of gunpowder is standing still."

Brother Loyal shook his head and said:

"There's got to be a reason for that! And I think it's definitely a deliberate hole dug by the game in this regard, just waiting for us to step into it and then find out the truth hidden in the history of the game on our own, maybe it's still a hidden main story. ”

The other players looked at each other.

They all think that Brother Loyal is stunned, what are you competing with a game, can't you just have fun?

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the others, Brother Loyal was a little tired.

He sighed and said:

"Forget it, I'll do it myself, you go find some tools to come back, pliers, wrenches and the like, let's disassemble these tools first, and when I go back and get the drawings from the Internet, let's modify it."

Get some spikes popped out, and then change those weird gun structures back to what we do. ”

"Ah, do you really want to do that?"

A short player couldn't help but ask:

"It's not necessary, right? Brother Loyalty, human dwarves and halflings have mature manufacturing experience and systems, can we just use them? Developing a different set of standards frameworks on your own is a waste of time and effort.

The most important thing is that our bullets and guns are not necessarily more powerful than the spherical bullets of other dwarves.

Don't make it for a long time, it's just in vain. ”

"That's what you don't understand."

Brother Loyal grinned like a fox who stole a chicken, and said:

"I'll admit that the dwarves and halflings have amazing steam technology, but I ask you, no matter how small those steam engines are, it's quite troublesome to put on a firearm, but if I give you an AK to rub in your hand to achieve the same burst effect, would you like to bring a steam repeater that is so sophisticated that it will break at any time with limited weight? Or would you rather carry a durable AK with you?

I'm not trying to rebuild another set of framework standards, my brothers, I'm trying to use our advanced technology to get more advantages for us!

AK is just one example!

Do you want to hit the gnolls with rockets? Don't you want to carry Gatling to sweep through thousands of armies?

If you want to, find me a tool!

Let's start rubbing these little cuties from now on, I'll say one more thing, do you dare to do these things in reality? But you're doing it here, and no one cares about you, right? Don't want to try hand-rubbing AK? If you really don't want to, then why are you running here and messing with me?

Why don't you go outside and kill the gnolls? ”

"! Awesome! ”

A group of young players suddenly became noisy.

They rushed out of the warehouse like wild dogs to find the tools that Brother Loyal needed.

Hand rub a big toy?

What man doesn't get confused when he sees it!

Brother Zhong stayed alone in the warehouse, shook his head and turned back to check the structure of the tool, and after ten seconds he heard footsteps, so he turned around and shouted:

"Find it so quickly. Ah, Lord Murphy! ”

Brother Loyal was about to salute Murphy but was interrupted by the vampire lord, and Murphy's expression at this time was very peculiar.

His blood-colored eyes stared at the ordinary looking old man in front of him who had three very punishing specialties: [Explosives Crafting Expertise], [Gunsmith] and [Intelligence Gatherer].

He whispered:

"When I heard your words as I was passing by, I suddenly realized that perhaps you otherworldly spirits had stumbled upon something about our world. The truth! I mean, that little detail that most people don't pay attention to.

As for the assertion between gunpowder, technology, and firearms, I admit that your statement seems to have opened up a new way of thinking for me.

Looks like we're going to have to talk, my warrior! ”
