In front of everyone, Sun Yu prepared some new gunpowder and detonated it.
There was a bang, and hot wind hit your face, with a slight tingling sensation. The new gunpowder was really powerful, and it contained a bit of the power of thunder, and there was almost no smoke.
After the demonstration, Sun Yu waited for everyone's comments. This is also an important part of Taichu Palace training. Stones from other mountains can attack jade. Sometimes comments from laymen can also open up spiritual thinking or help to examine shortcomings.
Wei Yuan has a brief knowledge of alchemy and pharmacology, but he has nothing to say about the formula and physical properties. If he does say it, he can only be so civilized and military, and can only say "fuck".
However, Wei Yuan's focus was on another aspect. The power of the new gunpowder was greatly increased, but the cost increased more than ten times.
After mass production, the original gunpowder has been reduced to a few hundred kilograms for one tael of silver. As for the new gunpowder, Wei Yuan estimates that one tael of silver can only buy five kilograms.
After watching Sun Yu's demonstration, Yu Zhizhuo said: "If you are pursuing instant power, there is still some room for improvement. These gunpowders can be so refined..."
Yu Zhizhuo grabbed a handful of new gunpowder and turned it into round particles as fine as sand under the influence of force. The inside of the particles was loose and not solid. He tested it again and found that the power increased by 20% out of thin air.
Sun Yu added: "Now this formula can be improved in two directions. One is to improve the quality of thunder sand, golden charcoal and fire glue, which can increase the power. Further, Xuan Lei Stone can be used to replace the thunder sand, so that the power will be even more powerful.
Big. The other direction is to move closer to the original formula and get cheaper gunpowder. The best combination between power and price still requires a lot of experiments."
Wei Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. The previous wars had shown that the number of muskets was the key to turning the tide of the war. The muskets were naturally weak in power. If they were few and powerful, they would not be as good as a strong man directly using Taoist bombardment.
Wei Yuan is now particularly sensitive to controlling the war situation. The key to the musket's ability to change the war is to allow mortals to go to the battlefield and have the power to fight. This is a move that fundamentally reverses the war situation.
If it weren't for the muskets, there would be less than 20,000 capable warriors out of the hundreds of thousands of people in the realm. But with the muskets, the number would exceed one hundred thousand. With the muskets and the sentient beings, Wei Yuan would be able to fight in a short period of time.
It is equivalent to having one hundred thousand elites. There are not all sentient beings, but there are one hundred thousand ordinary warriors.
It takes at least two or three years for ordinary people to reach the muscular realm with an ordinary diet. Archers need an additional three years of training. Sword and shield soldiers only need a little less than half a year. Only spear soldiers are the easiest, with one year of training.
But it only takes three days to train a steel pipe gunner. If you are in a hurry, half an hour is enough. A steel pipe gun can hit a door panel as big as ten feet away. Just aim it roughly in the direction. There is no point in aiming without aiming.
The new gunpowder was very powerful, and all the cultivators were very excited. Their thoughts surged and they gave many opinions. After an hour, many directions for improvement were discussed.
For example, Yu Zhizhuo proposed that the Xuan Lei Stone can be replaced by the Thunder Strike Wutong. There is a Thunder Tree in the realm. If you place the Phoenix Blood Wutong next to the Thunder Wood, and receive the baptism of thunder day and night, it will become a Thunder Strike Wutong in half a year. Its physical properties are compared to
Xuan Lei Stone is slightly weaker, but its price is only one-tenth of Xuan Lei Stone.
The last step is to determine the optimal proportion of the formula. There seems to be no good way to do this except to try it bit by bit. Previously, Sun Yu divided each ingredient into ten small portions and then tried it bit by bit, such as eight portions.
One part of thunder sand to one part of golden charcoal; eight parts of thunder sand to two parts of golden charcoal... Relying on this stupid method, it took more than 1,700 tries to arrive at the current ratio.
Wei Yuan finally understood why Sun Yu had been assigned more than ten people, but he kept complaining that there were not enough people.
Speaking of this matter, Sun Yu said to Ji Liuli: "Senior Sister Ji, I'm afraid I'll need to borrow your Demon Suppression Tower to save me some energy."
Ji Liuli's Demon Suppressing Tower also has the ability to evolve heavenly secrets. The two discussed it in detail for a long time. Ji Liuli set up a formation on the spot, placing the Demon Suppressing Tower in the middle. Now half of the spiritual objects in her formation are Wei Yuan
After redeeming the money, Wei Yuan couldn't always ask her to supplement him out of his own pocket.
Under the Demon Suppressing Tower, Sun Yu simulated the physical properties of several raw materials with Dao Power and sent them into the formation. The two people continued to adjust the formation and struggled for a long time. Finally, a ball of fire rose under the Demon Suppressing Tower. Sun Yu used Dao Power to simulate the raw materials.
Burned!
Although it was not an explosion yet, Ji Liuli looked at it carefully and said: "With 80% true burning charm, this method is feasible!"
Looking at Sun Yu who was very excited, Ji Liuli added: "If you rent a tower, you can get a thousand taels of silver per hour."
Before I knew it, it was already dawn.
The cultivators dispersed, each having breakfast or doing morning exercises. Wei Yuan wanted to leave, but Yu Zhizhuo held him back: "Where are you going, Master Realm Master?"
Wei Yuan struggled uselessly: "I'm going to study..."
Yu Zhizhuo dragged Wei Yuan away and said, "There is a golden house underground, and there is Yan Ruyu underground. Realm Lord, I just found some beautiful things underground. Let's go and have a look."
Two hours later, Wei Yuan was too impressed to look at it, but he saw another million kilograms of various ores.
Yu Zhizhuo smiled brightly and directed the monks to install pillars and horizontal beams in the passage opened by Wei Yuan, while praising: "After my nephew was promoted to a higher level, his Tao power has greatly increased. My ten or so junior brothers together are not as good as you alone."
.It’s a pity that you don’t have much time to do, so I can only block you all the time.”
Wei Yuan's heart moved, and a faceless warrior appeared, saying, "What do you think of this?"
A halo appeared in front of the faceless warrior. The same rapid water blade technique was used, but it was not as powerful. It was only equivalent to a full blow from an ordinary monk, but it could also cut rocks.
After Wei Yuan was promoted to the middle stage of Daoji, the range of Tao techniques that these faceless warriors can use has also increased. The original simple water flow technique now has water blades in it, and it has finally become a real rapid water blade technique.
The faceless warrior's water flow continued, digging into the rock formation bit by bit.
Originally, Yu Zhizhuo's eyebrows were furrowed, and his expression became a little solemn after one cup of tea. After one stick of incense, he showed surprise, and after two sticks of incense, he was already shocked.
If a normal human-level monk casts Tao magic like this, one cup of tea will exhaust his Tao power. An earth-level monk can support one stick of incense. If two sticks of incense are used, the earth-level monk will even die of exhaustion.
"Master nephew, how long can this puppet spell last?"
Wei Yuan said: "From morning to night."
Then he condensed a point of light and handed it to Yu Zhizhuo: "This is the secret to controlling the heart."
Yu Zhizhuo collected the Heart Technique and briefly tested it. The Faceless Warrior collected the Dao Technique according to his instructions, walked to the other side, and continued digging. Yu Zhizhuo was still hesitant, and two more Faceless Warriors appeared in front of him.
"There are two more here. Let's give them to our uncle together." Wei Yuan said.
A smile suddenly bloomed on Yu Zhizhuo's face, and he slapped Wei Yuan hard: "Go and do your business!"
Three puppet monks who can work from morning to night are much more useful than one Wei Yuan who comes and goes and doesn't know when he will be called. From now on, Yu Zhizhuo will be able to fully plan the underground excavation, and the progress will be rapid.
Only the most difficult areas require Wei Yuan.
For Wei Yuan, the Tao power he naturally recovers every moment is equivalent to three human-level Taoist monks. Therefore, these three faceless warriors work from morning to night, and Wei Yuan's own Tao power does not increase or decrease.
Wei Yuan said: "By the way, Uncle Master, the production will be slightly adjusted later. One out of every three parts of iron and copper will be used to make various tools."
"Okay, come with me and I'll show you something nice."
Wei Yuan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yu Zhizhuo was climbing all the way up. The good things were not deep underground. Speaking of which, he admired Master Yu. He could stay underground for more than ten hours a day.
To him, she is even more attractive than a peerless beauty.
The two of them returned to the ground all the way, and Yu Zhizhuo took Wei Yuan towards his private workshop.
There are actually seven different formations arranged inside this small courtyard. There are more than a dozen anvils and workbenches of various types, and hundreds of tools. There are more than thirty small and large hammers alone. The smallest ones are like ants.
The larger ones weigh several thousand kilograms. The worst of all hammers are top-grade magic weapons, and there are even two magic weapons.
Yu Zhizhuo solemnly took out a steel pipe with a faint blue light, handed it to Wei Yuan, and said with a smile: "In order to build this thing, I put a lot of it into it."
Wei Yuan took it and looked at it carefully. This steel pipe was six feet long, hollow inside, with openings at both ends. The inner diameter was about the size of an egg, and the overall thickness was about the thickness of a tea cup. Wei Yuan was a skilled man with big hands, so he could hold it just right.
This steel pipe has a faint cold aura. It is actually a top-quality magic weapon. It looks inconspicuous. In fact, it weighs more than 700 kilograms. Wei Yuan also needs some strength to move it freely.
Yu Zhizhuo took out two spear points, one long and one short, and installed them on both ends to form a short spear.
"Originally, openings at both ends were reserved to prepare for possible breech-loading ammunition in the future. But Sun Yu came up with new gunpowder, and many ideas can be realized. Let me show you the original idea first."
Yu Zhizhuo moved out a box, which contained gunpowder sealed with oil paper. The sealed gunpowder was all one foot long, and the size, thickness, and length were exactly the same.
Yu Zhizhuo took Wei Yuan to the shooting range, took the steel pipe, put the tail on the gun, and said: "This gun has three characteristics, which are indestructible, frost-proof and dust-proof."
Not bad, Frost Weiyuan can understand it. One is a solid advancement, and the other can prevent the gun body from overheating and damage, protect the gun body formation, and can also add the power of frost to the attack, making the opponent's movements slower.
.But what’s the point of being spotless? Isn’t this common on Taoist robes? Taoist robes with this characteristic basically don’t need to be washed, and they can avoid poison and poison.
However, Wei Yuan thought more deeply and had doubts about Hanshuang. This kind of steel-barrel gun is usually used as a stick after firing one shot. At most, it can be used as an ordinary spear by reinstalling the gun head. The body of the gun is not hot.
It doesn't matter at all.
Yu Zhizhuo looked like he knew you didn't understand, and he took out another box, which actually contained a box of gun heads.
Yu Zhizhuo stretched out his hand and pressed it, and five sections of gunpowder and a gun head flew out automatically. The gunpowder columns entered the barrel from the front muzzle, and then the gun head came into place on its own. Yu Zhizhuo held the long gun and pointed at the stone ten feet away.
target.
Amidst the roar, the stone target, which was equipped with a medium-grade magical weapon armor and had a defense equivalent to that of an earth-level monk, was pierced by a single shot!
Yu Zhizhuo did not stop, but shouted loudly, the gunpowder and gun heads all flew up, automatically arranged neatly, then loaded and fired, loaded and fired, the roar became one, and in the blink of an eye, more than ten guns were fired, covering a piece of bag
The huge boulder covered with steel plates shattered half of it.
Seeing this, Wei Yuan suddenly realized that the original purpose of the spotless film was to make it smooth and silky! Master Yu was really a great talent because he was unconventional and unconventional.
This round of rapid fire just now, according to the standards of the outer world, the rate of fire has exceeded 500 rounds per minute, which is a proper machine gun standard.
This front-mounted single-shot machine gun has never appeared in the outer world.
Yu Zhizhuo handed the gun in his hand to Wei Yuan and said: "This gun is a top-quality magic weapon, no less than Xiaoyu. I named the magic sword used by Cui Yu's nephews "Pure Land" and give it to you.
But now that I have new gunpowder, I have to make some new powder packets and reconsider the amount of powder. The power will be increased after all. But even if the amount of powder is full, this gun can withstand it."
Wei Yuan took over the Pure Land and thought to himself, didn't the name mean to send people away for reincarnation?
With this gun in hand, killing the foundation is like killing a dog, and the sky foundation cannot withstand a round of shooting. It is really a killing weapon in group battles.
Wei Yuan held a gun in his hand, feeling heroic but also helpless. Even without the gun, he would kill the foundation like a dog.
