Chapter 17: You Are Really Smart
Boom boom boom!
A deafening explosion sounded suddenly, and even the floor under their feet shook in the violent explosion.
"It should be about time now, Master Lou Gao, please come in!" Dai Weisi said as he opened the big iron door of the forging room and walked into the forging room with Lou Gao.
When he saw the scene in front of him, even the knowledgeable Lou Gao was shocked.
The hard iron barrel had been completely shattered, broken into countless iron pieces scattered on the ground in the explosion. At the same time, the iron plate on top of the iron barrel was overturned by the violent impact caused by the explosion. The iron plate was full of dense cracks, and it seemed to be on the verge of breaking.
Not only Lou Gao was shocked, but Silong, Siyu, and Li Hu were also stunned when they saw this scene!
"This, this is..."
Li Hu picked up a piece of broken iron from the barrel, feeling the residual heat on the iron. His face suddenly changed, and he commented:
"What a terrifying power! It's just a little powder, but after burning, it can blow the hard iron barrel into pieces! If the distance is close enough, even a defensive war soul emperor will be injured!"
Li Hu looked at Dai Weisi's back again, and he found that he really couldn't see through this prince.
These days, Li Hu felt too much shock from Dai Weisi. First, he fought against the dark gold fear claw bear, and his luck was bursting, obtaining the external soul bone.
The second was the ten thousand year whale glue. He thought Dai Weisi was just like an ordinary playboy, but he didn't expect that after taking whale glue, he broke through to the Soul Sect in just one week.
Then he absorbed the fourth ring of ten thousand years, and now he has researched such a powerful powder.
Looking at Dai Weisi's back, Li Hu was very curious. If one day, he really became the emperor of Star Luo, then where would the Star Luo Empire go?
Lou Gao was shocked and said, "Your Highness, what on earth is this? It has such a huge power."
Seeing Lou Gao's interested expression, Dai Weisi knew that he had taken the bait. No matter who it is, once they feel curious or interested, they are basically not far from falling.
Dai Weisi smiled and explained, "Master Lou Gao, I believe you have seen this thing, it is gunpowder!"
"Ah? Gunpowder?" Lou Gao was stunned. Of course he knew about gunpowder, but wasn't it used to set off fireworks? Could it have such power?
"Crown Prince, is this really gunpowder? In my impression, gunpowder doesn't seem to have such power."
"Haha, ordinary gunpowder does not have such power, but now after my improvement, this black gunpowder already has the ability to pose a threat to high-level soul masters."
After a pause, seeing that Lou Gao had not yet come out of the shock, Dai Weisi continued to lure: "Master has also seen that such a small amount of black gunpowder is enough to injure a Soul Emperor.
If the dosage of gunpowder is increased, even soul masters at the Soul Saint and Soul Douluo level will be killed, and even Titled Douluo may be injured!
And the reason I came here this time is to ask Master Lou Gao to use black gunpowder to create a weapon that can change the situation of Douluo Continent! I wonder if Master is willing to lend a hand!"
"Weapons that can injure Soul Saints and Soul Douluo... enough to change the situation of the continent."
Lou Gao was intoxicated by the big picture painted by Dai Weisi, but to be honest, after seeing the power of black gunpowder, he did develop a strong interest in this thing.
As a master craftsman, Lou Gao is naturally proud. Nowadays, blacksmiths are in a low position and can only be on the same level as ordinary people. They are not even as good as those arrogant businessmen. How can he, the president of the Blacksmith Association, save face?
For many years, Lou Gao has wanted to create a weapon powerful enough to threaten soul masters. Only in this way can the status of blacksmiths be improved, and the situation of the Blacksmith Association will not be so embarrassing.
Now, after seeing Dai Weisi's improved black gunpowder, Lou Gao finally saw hope.
The power of this gunpowder is so great that if it can be made into a weapon, it will be enough to threaten the life of a soul master!
And by creating such a powerful weapon, the status of blacksmiths will inevitably rise, and even the Blacksmith Association will be transformed into a powerful force that is not weaker than the seven major sects.
Thinking of this, how could Lou Gao refuse? He smiled and said, "Haha, how dare I refuse the eldest prince's request? I am willing to lend a helping hand to His Royal Highness the eldest prince. But..."
Changing the subject, Lou Gao frowned slightly, looked at the messy forge room, and sighed, "The power of this black gunpowder is so huge. To be honest, I don't know what kind of weapon to make it into.
Swords, spears, axes, hooks, forks, shields, and armor will definitely not work. I can try bows and arrows. In this way, it may take a lot of time to make this weapon, and it may even fail!"
He couldn't help but think so. The technology of Douluo Continent is still in the era of cold weapons. The only long-range attack weapon is probably the crossbow.
"Haha, Master, don't worry. I came here just to discuss some ideas with you. Maybe we can make a powerful weapon?"
Dai Weisi smiled and took out a pre-drawn blueprint from his soul guide ring. The blueprint was a firearm from his previous life: a grenade!
He originally wanted to draw cannons and guns, but then he gave up. Although the principles of guns and cannons are simple, it takes extremely high forging skills to make them.
Let alone a small conical bullet, Dai Weisi doesn't think that such a small bullet can be made with the ironmaking technology of this world.
Even if Lou Gao's forging skills can successfully make a bullet, it is meaningless if there is only one.
Dai Weisi needs a large number of bullets, hundreds of thousands of them, only in this way can he form firepower coverage on the enemy in a war.
Lou Gao is old, and he can't let him make bullets there every day, right? Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Dai Weisi finally chose grenades.
The grenade is large in size, and the principle is relatively simple. With the forging skills of the Blacksmith Association, it should be possible to replicate it.
Lou Gao took the forging drawings of the grenade, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes. As a master craftsman who had forged countless weapons, Lou Gao saw the clue of the grenade at a glance.
"So that's it, great! Great! It turns out that it can be used in this way. Just fill a large amount of black gunpowder in the center and wrap the outside with sharp iron sheets.
Finally, add two pieces of flint at the bottom of the grenade, and wrap the fuse around one of the flints...
In this way, you only need to pull the fuse quickly to make the two pieces of flint rub against each other to catch fire, ignite the gunpowder, and finally throw it out!"
"The explosive power of the gunpowder is enough to blow away the surrounding iron sheets and kill the enemy! Great! I didn't expect there are such weapons in the world. Your Highness, you are really smart!"
