Chapter 46

Druid Joseph's return to Nebo meant that Zhao Mai should set out for the farmer's forest. Druid's study life is about to start, his heart is full of excitement, but also a bit reluctant.

It is because of the separation of the "Three Musketeers". Due to the rush of time, Zhao Mai's musket is the only one to complete all the processes including polishing, polishing, protective spraying, etc. it is now on Zhao Mai's back, close to his clothes, giving people a sense of security.

The bullets made by hand are all made by dwarves. A belt specially used to place bullets can put these 30 flat headed metal bullets safely. They are easy to use and will not affect the activities. This is green's craft.

"Whether it's becoming a druid or building a weapon, I can't help much. But I'm very experienced in making appliances for storing small things. " Green smiles triumphantly. "My pocket can hide cards, chips and daggers without being touched. These obedient warheads don't matter at all. "

"In that case, I have something to do for you. I hope you have to be careful and get the most out of it. "

"What's the matter?" Green asked with some surprise. Through more than half a month of contact, he can see that Zhao Mai has magical ideas and techniques.

"I can make a lot of money by teaching you this, which is big enough to swallow your life." Zhao Mai thought it over for a while, and said, "no matter how much you earn, you should take out most of them to support Sok's gun research. Because only weapons and powerful force are your ultimate security guarantee. "

Seeing that green put away his smile, knowing that he understood the risks, Zhao Mai gave him his own method of preparing fine salt.

"The alchemy salt of the spirit is so simple?" The surprised expression on Green's face is Zhao Mai's biggest harvest. "Hundreds of years, even thousands of years, the elves use such a simple way to earn our money?"

"I don't know how to make alchemy salt. Maybe it's the same, maybe it's not as easy as my method."

"It's a matter of huge profits. Can you trust me? " Green frowned: "we've only known each other for less than a month. Aren't you afraid that I'll take your way away and earn money by myself? Who cares about the firearm?"

"Salt must be getting cheaper and cheaper. The most you can do is to run away. Can't I bring down the price of salt?" Zhao Mai said with a smile: "big deal, I framed you for stealing the alchemy salt preparation method of the elves, so that you can't say clearly even if you have a mouth."

"OK, since you can cheat, then we can cooperate." Green scratched his head. "I'll never work with a fool again in my life. Really, one time is enough."

later, Zhao Mai took advantage of the dwarf to carry out the final adjustment of the gun, and mysteriously handed him a secret recipe. "Sock, this is my powder formula, and the granulation method."

The dwarf couldn't restrain his curiosity. He quickly opened it and read it several times. He was sure to keep it in mind. "These days I feel that your gunpowder is much better than mine. Of course, explosiveness is definitely not good, but it is the most appropriate way to push the warhead. "

"Well, gun, medicine and bullet are all very important. If one falls down, it will affect the final power."

"I'll remember this recipe and make more and better guns." Sok smiles, his beard ripping on both sides, forming a curved crescent. "Come and see your weapon. I've finished it."

"Don't worry, just listen to me." Seeing that there was no one around, Zhao Mai said to the dwarf with great sincerity: "the guns are there. As long as they can be disassembled, most of the mysteries can be learned. But the secret of gunpowder is not like this, few people can reduce the formula from the black powder

"Well, you're right." The dwarf has a crooked head. He doesn't know what Zhao Mai is alluding to.

"Keep the secret of the formula in mind. If you have time, you should devote yourself to the research of a better formula. It should also be kept secret. No one can tell you." Zhao Mai said: "only in this way can we ensure that such weapons will not spread. It's like Just like the best martial arts of dwarves and the best archer skills of elves, what a terrible thing it would be if you were learned and mastered by a larger number of goblins and orcs

The dwarf swallowed hard, and finally realized the danger. Knowing the power of guns in hand, you can easily arm an unarmed weak man, such as Zhao Mai, into a killer who can pose a great threat to Knights. If the formula of gunpowder is known by orcs, they may be able to imitate similar weapons without blacksmith.

One or two orcs with crude weapons is nothing, but the number of orcs is almost ten times that of dwarves. Even if you have the best muskets in the world, if you are attacked by ten of the worst muskets at the same time, you will be dead.

"Don't worry, I won't divulge the formula of the powder." He thought about it and added: "bullets can't be sold at will. Only those kind and friendly races can get them."

Zhao Mai smiles and hugs Suok, then goes to see his musket.Because the Druid training is about to start soon, Sok the dwarf pays more attention to the natural style when he decorates the gun for Zhao Mai. After secretly consulting green, according to the sketch drawn by "crazy mouse", he changed the original blade from one to two, and changed it to the front slot type for the convenience of operation. So, on the whole, when the blade is pushed out, the tip of the gun looks like an elephant's tooth.

The sight of the musket is also carved like an elephant, with at least two ears in order. The counterweight has also been carefully adjusted to make Zhao Mai adapt as soon as possible. Because there is not enough time, otherwise the dwarves would like to apply Rune technology to the elephant's teeth, so that it can become a magic weapon.

Take this weapon, rub the pattern on it, and the dwarf text hidden in the vine like anti-skid pattern reads "to my tutor, the beacon of guidance, the source of pure gold." Zhao Mai kept looking back and forth and couldn't put it down. "Such a good gun should have its own name. What do you suggest, Sok? "

"How about elephants?" The dwarf said, "you said my arms were like elephant legs, so I carved an elephant. The picture was painted by green. I don't know if it looks like it. After all, I haven't seen an elephant. I'm worried... "

"It can't be called an elephant. It's too common. Mammoth is the most powerful ancestor of the elephant family. It is strong, powerful and tenacious. It is the king of land. I'd like to call the gun mammoth M1, or mammoth for short

"Megatooth, I know what it means. What's M1 about?"

"It doesn't make any sense. It's just for people to ask questions." Zhao Mai said to Sok, "if you want to make more people identify with you, you need to arouse their interest. Just talking about technology, it can only be limited to craftsmen. For others, you need to learn how to package Come on, it's easy. As long as you can make them curious and keep asking, they can hear more introductions, can't they? "

"Yes, I didn't think of it." "The tutor is the tutor," he said with a smile

In this way, after their respective farewell, Zhao Mai carrying "mammoth M1 giant toothed beast", carrying a basket of eggs, followed Joseph north to leave the town of Nebo.
