Chapter 107 The idea of a bolt gun!
Xiao En's research progress is advancing slowly but effectively.
On the third day, the time the out-of-control person was awake increased to half an hour. On the fourth day, the out-of-control person remained awake for nearly an hour while maintaining mental resonance with Xiao En, and lost control of it. The past experience told Xiao En that it saw an indescribable old family member, but that old family member did not kill it.
The fifth day was also the most critical day. With the blessing of multiple mental spells and the mental link between himself and the out-of-control person, Xiao En kept it awake for a whole morning.
During this period, the out-of-control person acted like a normal person, and even proposed to eat some halfling fire cuisine.
Finally, after the mental blessing spell disappeared, Xiao En disconnected from it, and the out-of-control person returned to a state of madness.
“The activated knowledge inside the brain of the out-of-control person has been completely changed.”
“It is completely different from the mysterious knowledge in the brain of the normal extraordinary person.”
“I just It can wake it up temporarily, but it cannot maintain this effect."
Xiao En's research progress has reached a bottleneck.
This card lasted for nearly a week, and his research made no progress. Although he could make the out-of-control person wake up, as soon as he disconnected the spiritual link, madness would immediately reoccupy the out-of-control person's brain.
It was also during this research process that Xiao En's arcana master level was raised by one level.
He is now - Level 5 Arcanist/Level 5 Psionist/Level 4 Arcanist.
"Master!"
The clay golem walked to the door of the laboratory with heavy steps and reminded: "You have been working all day. Now it is dinner time."
Because Xiao En has a lot of money recently, he upgraded the clay golem's hardware.
Roughly, it is to make it more intelligent, equivalent to an artificial intelligence butler. It just so happens that Xiao En also needs to practice alchemy carving, so he reshapes the rune structure inside the clay golem's brain. After going through it again, the soul crystal that serves as the core operation has also been upgraded from the most basic small piece of soul stone to a soul gem.
The soul gem was obtained when killing the night witch. It gave the clay golem higher intelligence, which is equivalent to using the souls of other creatures as the original driving force. The memory remaining in the soul gem will As the underlying logic for constructing the golem's actions.
So after completing this set of upgrades, in addition to simple cleaning, the clay golem can also perform more complex tasks.
Of course, if you still want to continue upgrading, there are two ways to advance. One is to use soul gems that are close to the legendary level, and the other is to use the brains of other creatures. The brain golem is a kind of A construct created by strange inventions.
"But the latter is very evil. The computers in Hammer World seem to use human brains as basic hardware."
Xiao En stood up and dominated the human race, controlling the out-of-control person in front of him.
With the progress of the experiment, this out-of-control person is becoming less and less resistant to Xiao En's mind control spells. He is now undergoing a long process of mind surgery, in which he transforms himself by constantly modifying his memory. The cognitive thoughts are implanted into the other party's brain bit by bit.
Perhaps one day, when Xiao En completes the entire will implantation, it will be possible to completely wake up and completely reverse and reshape the crazy activation knowledge.
However, the extraordinary person rescued in this way will probably never be promoted to the Legend of Destiny in this life.
Their hearts are defective and they rely not on themselves but on others.
But it’s good to be alive.
Today’s dinner is pan-fried Doromon hind legs, a mutated creature from the underground world. It looks a bit like a multi-legged beast of burden. It can be regarded as a creature of flesh and blood distortion. The reproductive isolation of the entire grotesque country. Disrupted, the distortion of flesh and blood gave rise to many strange species.
When living in Abyss City, don’t have too high requirements for food, as long as you can eat it.
The taste is actually pretty good.
The meat is very tough, but the halfling chef's skills are very good. Now the tower has hired a halfling cook to serve Xiao En on a daily basis.
After Xiao En finished his dinner, he was just about to go to the astrology station to clear his mind.
Suddenly, a black shadow appeared. It stood in the shadow, leaned slightly and said respectfully: "Sir Xiao En. There are guests visiting!"
Xiao En's current security level is very high Gao, there is a quasi-legendary assassination demon who protects him.
Guest?
Xiao En has always lived in seclusion in Abyss City and basically has no friends. After thinking about it, he guessed who it was and nodded: "Invite her to come in."
Soon, there was a soft sound of footsteps. came, followed by a faint sweet fragrance.
Succubus-Veronica.
Xiao En also smelled a little bit of sulfur, and sure enough, behind the succubus was a fire-burning demon, his name was Aoun, a transcendent who practiced both alchemy and the demon path. This guy may also be a reincarnated soul from another world, but he doesn't know how to cover his aura, but he should not be an ordinary human in his previous life. He may be an astral race from another world, or an intelligent elemental life.
Ornn is so passionate about the power of fire and explosions that he even has a way to travel to the inner elemental plane of fire.
It is immune to fire damage and can withstand temperatures of tens of thousands of degrees.
On the other hand, Xiao En himself cannot enter the fire elemental plane, as it will be cooked, and the blessing spell is also very dangerous and cannot last long.
"Sir Xiao En!"
The succubus-Veronica was obviously dressed up carefully tonight. She wore a dark red dress like an evening dress, embellished with Thin lace, a deep white ravine exposed on the chest, the slit of the long skirt reached close to the waist, and the slender thighs were white and slender but full of power, as if she could easily strangle a strong man, in her fair skin Wearing a string of exquisite ruby necklaces around her neck, the lavender devil tattoo on her collarbone makes her look even more charming and beautiful.
Veronica used the Orb of Transformation to cover her demonic side, put away her demonic wings, and her tail with stings disappeared. Her feet were exactly the same as those of humans, revealing her slender ankles.
After this change, she looked a little less dangerous as a devil, and a little more pitiful and charming as a woman.
Xiao En nodded slightly and said: "Please come in."
They came here today probably to invest in the Hell Flame matter. Xiao En had already sold off a lot of the extraordinary relics he harvested last time. In the end, The most valuable things are the relics of the lizardman leader and the relics of the old family members, which can probably be obtained with more than 12,000 soul stones.
In Abyss City, if there are too many soul gems, they will be exchanged for equivalent rare items and relics. Sometimes soul gems are also used as a higher value currency.
Most soul gems come from advanced transcendent beings, and their value ranges from hundreds to thousands of soul gems.
Soul stones are relatively common. Mortal souls, animal souls, and some weird souls may all give birth to soul stones. Soul worms can also use a large amount of "flesh alchemy" to become soul stones through rituals.
The value of the legendary soul crystal is hard to estimate.
Compared to the scheming succubus Veronica, the Fire Demon is much more straightforward. It did not sit on Sean's sofa because it would burn the furniture and its body temperature was too high. .
The Fire Demon said eagerly to Xiao En: "Your Majesty Xiao En, there is absolutely no problem in wanting to invest in Hell Flame."
"I just need a lot of funds. Research.”
"In addition, I am very interested in the bolt gun you mentioned. I have never heard of this kind of firearm, not even in the Dorne area."
Hearing the words of the Fire Demon, Xiao En's His eyes immediately turned back from the succubus' proud peaks.
He directly abandoned the succubus beside him and walked to the desk with great interest. His invisible hand picked up the pen and drew on the drawing, and said in a deep voice: "This is a bold idea."< br>
"Conventional firearms are already difficult to be effective against high-level monsters." "So, we need something more powerful."
"A bolt gun, as the name suggests, is a firearm that explodes when it fires bullets. It is heavier than ordinary firearms. The ammunition needs to be matched with some extraordinary relics. I recently studied some alchemical materials found from the fire elemental plane and found that there are Some elemental materials are suitable for use as explosives.”
“Of course, it is not that stable.”
Because Xiao En has the blessing of reading magic, he can learn anything very quickly. It takes ten minutes to memorize the content of a book, but it takes more time to digest it.
With the upgrade of the brain's hardware, Xiao En's understanding ability is also improving. He feels that his brain is about to evolve into a low-end biological computer.
Huo Burning Demon listened with interest, nodded, and raised his own questions.
In fact, Xiao En had the idea of a bolt gun very early on.
It was first in Dorne City. At that time, under the leadership of Hank, he got several rounds of special bullets from the logistics department of the Night Watch, and used extraordinary relics and alchemical notches, which were quite powerful. It's so big that when a bullet goes out, it's almost like a cannonball, very powerful.
However, these ammunition are very rare and troublesome to make, and there are not so many extraordinary relics in the real world.
At that time, Xiao En was thinking, why should conventional firearms be used to fire these bullets? Why can't the caliber be larger? Why can't a large firearm be specially designed to fire such bullets?
Limited by his thinking and cognition at the time, Xiao En did not think deeply about these issues.
Now that he has completed the reshaping of his self-perception, he feels that all this is achievable. The bullets created through alchemy already have the basic design of a bolt gun.
"The alchemist demigod can even design an anti-matter rifle, why can't I create a powerful bolter?"
"I am an Earthling."
"I am very familiar with firearms. The traditional spellcaster's combat mode may not be suitable for me, so I need more powerful firearms."
"If possible, I would like to get an electromagnetic gun."
Not far away, the succubus Veronica bit her voluptuous red lips. At first, she clearly noticed that Xiao En's eyes were attracted by her proud figure. As an advanced succubus, this was very important to her. self-confidence, because she is a peerless beauty for men and can bring them unprecedented joy, although it requires a small price (physical absorption).
But before she could use her charm skills, Xiao En was all interested by the fire demon's words. The two men gathered together to discuss the idea of the bolt gun with great interest. Leave her alone.
She is not a succubus who relies on charm to gain a career. Extraordinary people who can advance to become a succubus across paths all have extraordinary willpower, because crossing paths is inherently difficult. things.
Those lowest-level succubi make a living by selling their lust in Abyss City, and Veronica’s rise depends entirely on her own wisdom, means and strength.
But reality dealt her a heavy blow. For the first time, she tried to rely on charm to get to the top, but failed. The painstaking efforts to dress up were more serious than the casual questions raised by the fire demon. attraction.
However, she did not disturb the two people in front of her. On the contrary, she stayed quietly and even took the initiative to make Xiao En a cup of green tea.
She is a very smart woman.
Veronica was born in the Dagon region. She is an extraordinary person who smuggled into the weird country from the real world. There are many people who smuggled from the real world in Abyss City. But after leaving the real world, it is difficult to go back.
Usually, extraordinary beings who have completed the ‘transformation’ ceremony and are no longer human racially want to sneak away from the real world.
Because they are no longer human, it is very inconvenient to live in the real world.
"Look at this."
Xiao En handed the remaining alchemy bullet to the fire demon in front of him, and said solemnly: "If this kind of bullet can be mass-produced, then create a special The firearm, the most basic bolter, is complete."
The Fire Demon stared at the bullet that was as exquisite as a work of art. The alchemy marks on it were very complicated. It said solemnly: "The production process is very complicated. High."
"It requires very strong craftsmanship."
It was put in front of the nose and smelled, and continued: "It is not difficult to use extraordinary relics as materials. The Weird Kingdom is easy to collect. As long as we have enough soul stones, adventurers can help us find them.”
"If I want to mass-produce this thing, I need a lot of alchemy apprentices."
Xiao En nodded silently: "Productivity."
"It is really difficult without enough productivity. To achieve large-scale mass production. "
It is not ordinary people who are the productive forces, but extraordinary people who are the productive forces. It must be an alchemy path, or an extraordinary person with alchemy skills.
The Fire Demon pondered for a moment and said: "I will take this bullet away."
"I'm wondering if I can reproduce it."
"As for the firearms that specifically use this kind of bullet, if you have an idea, give me the drawings and I will study it myself. It is very powerful. Continuous firing places high demands on the materials of firearms. ”
Material science.
Xiao En nodded silently and said: "I'm afraid the current material science is not enough. I will think about the application of arcane materials."
Some of his terms, Huo Burning Demon listened to It didn't quite understand it, but it could be understood. It nodded and said: "It's definitely okay to use fine gold and mithril, but the cost is too expensive."
"Maybe Osteel can give it a try."
Osteel's full name is arcane steel, which is a metal ingot fused with magic blessing.
Until the two of them left, Xiao En didn't have time to talk to Veronica about more things. He could only visit her another day. There was a curfew in the Mysterious Lock District at night, and they couldn't stay here.
Xiao En watched the succubus's charming back leave, his eyes fixed on her plump and round buttocks like the full moon.
“It seems that even after asking, I am still the same old pervert as in my previous life.”
"Because I am."
Xiao En smiled self-deprecatingly. The moment he turned around, he had already collected his emotions and completely forgot about the alluring figure of the succubus.
Without a woman in my heart, I draw my sword to the God of Nature.
He does not need to deliberately suppress the desire to exclude himself, because it is a part of nature, but he cannot be affected by it. He can pick it up and put it down at any time. This is the result after he asked.
Of course the succubus is tempting!
Want to fuck.
But no one can influence him from completing his destiny!
Xiao En walked into the laboratory and said calmly: "Get ready for the next experiment, thought implantation and mind reconstruction surgery."
The clay golem muffled: "Okay . Master.”
