Sword and Magic and Taxi

The dwarf was very satisfied with the condition of the iron pipes. After eating and stuffing, he used this energy to make some cast iron parts. It is said that these will be turned into parts for guns after being cut, drilled and polished. Zhao Mai could still see a few things when looking at the finished product, but he couldn't recognize anything when looking at the cast iron parts.

This means that ordinary people see only stones, but artists see statues. How to show exquisiteness from the ordinary, that is the real art. There is no doubt that what the dwarves are doing is an art.

Zhao Mai and Green will not be able to get involved in the next work and can only wait for the dwarf to finish the work. Zhao Mai seizes the time to continue learning Common Language, and Green also seizes the last moment to teach him.

Junkrat Green is very talented in language. Not only does he learn it quickly, but he can also imitate it vividly. He can hear more emotional information from the tone of voice of others than the average person.

He can quickly and accurately interpret a look, a movement, or an inadvertent shake. This ability is indispensable on the card table, but when it comes to Zhao Mai, it is a bit inadequate. For Green, Zhao Mai comes from a completely different place, and the meanings expressed by body language are many different, and Zhao Mai's mother tongue is like a heavenly book to him. Whether it is Common Language, Elvish or Dwarven, these texts all have the basic structure of letters and are consistent in usage and thought. Each of the square characters used in Chinese seemed to be a magical emblem. After reading it a few times, Green completely lost confidence in learning.

It is said that the easiest way to learn common language is to start with a smile and graduate with a smile. The dwarf alphabet is the easiest to recognize, but the history is too long. Living in caves has led to the isolation of dwarves from each other. The writing has also developed separately, which is equivalent to too many dialects, so it is a smile to start and a cry to graduate. Elf writing is too aloof. They have a lot of lifespan to learn, but other races are not so convenient. However, Elvish writing eventually became beautiful, so some people say that Elf language started with tears and came out with smiles.

Green said that Chinese is the kind of language that makes you cry to death before you even see the door. He gave up studying because he didn't want to die.

The second day passed quickly, and at dawn on the third day the first gun was ready. Green's pistol is the smallest in size and can accommodate the fewest parts, making it simpler. The rough metal surface has not been polished and modified, giving it an unexpectedly rough feel.

This is a standard double-barreled hand cannon. The thick barrel and short handle do not match well. However, Green requires that size be given priority, so it can only be made like this. Zhao Mai looked over and over for a long time, and had to admit that this handgun had a unique beauty in another world.

Sock, Green, I just wanted to understand something. After hearing this, you must remember to keep it a secret. Don't tell ordinary people. Zhao Mai was about to start collecting private goods again, and said: I have a feeling that the gun itself is not the best. The most important thing is the ammunition. I have come up with two...three kinds of ammunition, what do you think?

Using pen and paper, he drew shotgun, flat and cone bullets. Once launched, what effect can be produced depends on the warhead? The round ball projectile used before may be less powerful. I have been thinking about it for the past two days. Since it has been determined to use a custom metal bullet case, why Why don’t you change the warhead?”

The dwarf pinched his beard and thought for a while, then said: This will make it more complicated to make and will become very expensive.

Isn't our goal to make a legendary magic weapon? Which magic weapon will be cheaper? Zhao Mai shrugged: If there is a way to increase the power of the long sword by half, even if the cost is increased tenfold, I think someone will want it. Bar.

Yes, it is indeed the case. Green agreed: Only one who can create a magic weapon can become a master craftsman, right?

The dwarf Thok was convinced and he started making bullets. Since the cartridge case is useless after being fired, there is no need to cast a mold, just roll two iron sheets to try the effect. Green considered that his weapons were all for close-range self-defense, so he chose shotguns. He fell in love with the effect of one dozen, one blockbuster described by Zhao Mai, and was ready to try it out.

Gunpowder is readily available, and the dwarves are very agile. The first launch was carried out at noon that day, but the ignition was not successful. I checked the reason and found that the bottom of the cartridge case was too thick and the sealing wax was not penetrated.

The second launch took place that afternoon, and this time it was successful! The scattered bullets left a dense pile of small dots on the wooden target. Judging from the impact, the power of this gun was not inferior to that of a hand crossbow - besides, it was a lethal weapon.

Now that it was proven that this idea was possible, the dwarf began to build a second gun. He kicked the other two out and prepared to work all night.

No, you have to take a nap! Zhao Mai insisted: Go and have a good rest, and we can relax. Maybe once you relax, your mind will be more active and we will give you a new good idea!

If he said anything else, the dwarf would never listen, but for the sake of the firearms, he couldn't be stubborn. In the blacksmith shop, the three people fell into a deep sleep. During this period Green got up once and it was said that compensation for the theft came.

You must take this money. Green said to Zhao Mai: It's only one hundred gold anyway, just use it as pocket money.

It seems that with the hand cannon, Junkrat has become more confident. He also persuaded Zhao Mai not to cancel the room at the Fireplace Hotel, which was a way of supporting the fat boss.

Zhao Mai didn't care about this. He listened to the sound of the dwarves working and looked forward to seeing his weapons. But on the evening of the third day, what was made was the dwarf's heavy hammer spear.

No matter how you look at it, the body of this thing is just a two-handed war hammer, but the handle is slightly curved. The barrel is the handle of the hammer, and the muzzle is hidden at the top of the hammer. If he plays with this hammer gun, Zhao Mai will definitely break his wrist, and Green might dislocate his shoulder again. The dwarf Sok was able to pick it up easily, hold the weapon flat with one hand, and enter the firing position.

Don't worry, Mike, I've calculated the time. The dwarf said confidently: After making hand cannons and hammer guns, I have accumulated some experience, which can make your weapons lighter and easier to use. After all, you are with us Among the three, the physical condition is the weakest...

Thank you for telling the truth... Zhao Mai smiled helplessly, worried that he would not be able to finish the weapon.

Your gun will be ready in the early hours of tomorrow. Then I will start with your gun, make fine adjustments, and then make enough bullets. Sock patted Green and said to him: He needs Let’s leave here and go to the Druid Forest. We two have nothing urgent to do, so we’ll postpone the fine work until later. Do you mind?”

I don't have any objections! Green replied with a smile.

In fact, the dwarf took out the final work a little later than expected. The rising sun of dawn has appeared, and its light shines on the shoulders of the three people. In the middle of them, a double-barreled shotgun about half a meter long lay quietly on the table. The dwarves fully considered the convenience of holding it and creatively installed a blade that automatically flips out under the muzzle. Whether it is shooting or transforming into a short spear form, this gun can basically maintain balance.

I have improved the grip. You can use this weapon with one hand. You need to use both hands when loading. However, one hand is only responsible for grabbing the gun body, so it does not prevent you from using a shield or something. Sok happily Smiling, he said to Zhao Mai: I still need to change the balance for you, but first I need to make some bullets to try out the feel.
