From Baron to Lord

"This is just a small turret." Allen understood. "You could say that."

"Well done." Allen praised him.

Allen knew that reducing such a large turret to this size was unimaginably difficult. "Jumping Monte, go and collect 10,000 gold coins later as your reward."

Boltzmann and the others were stunned. Not only did the king not reprimand him, but he also rewarded him with 10,000 gold coins.

This was truly unbelievable. After all, 10,000 gold coins was a great fortune for them.

An ordinary alchemist earns only 100 gold coins a month, which is already a lot.

As for Lilith, Ulfa, and the other elders, they have 1,000 gold coins, and Boltzmann even has 3,000 gold coins.

But upon hearing about 10,000 gold coins, their eyes still turned red.

Jumping Monte thanked him smugly. A bunch of fools, only knowing how to work hard, not knowing how to innovate, only deserving to watch him drool.

"From now on, you will be responsible for specializing in the research of such guns." Allen said to Jumping Monte. A few.

Chapter 459: Task Reward

Allen said to Jumping Monte: "From now on, you will specialize in researching such guns, guns specifically for transcendents."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"However, this energy gun is a bit like a cannon. It's best to reduce the explosion range to a single point. As it is now, the energy utilization efficiency is too low."

"Your Majesty, we can only do this much now. After all, our utilization of energy is not yet too high," Jumping Monte said helplessly.

"Then use bullets. The power of bullets is concentrated."

"But in that case, the range is too short, and it's not accurate at all. Boltzmann's guns can only hit a few hundred meters at most."

Boltzmann's face darkened upon hearing Jumping Monte's words, but he couldn't find any reason to refute.

This fell into a dead end. Bullets have a short range and are inaccurate "970."

If energy is used, it is not a gun at all, but a small cannon.

Allen also had no solution. He only knew that the principle of a gun is that gunpowder expands when it encounters fire, generating power to push the bullet out. He didn't know anything more profound.

"Think about it carefully yourselves. Boltzmann, you research firearms for ordinary soldiers, and the cost should not exceed forty gold coins."

"As for you, Jumping Monte." Jumping Monte immediately puffed out his chest, "You will be specifically responsible for researching firearms for transcendents. It's best to find a way to concentrate the energy as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Allen returned to the palace, went to his study, and took out paper and pen, intending to try hard to recall something.

Although, relying on the abilities of Boltzmann and the other alchemists, this firearm should not be difficult for them.

At most, in a year, they can use their knowledge to create qualified guns.

However, Allen still wanted to try his best to improve this firearm, and he hoped it would be as soon as possible.

After thinking for a long time, the paper in front of him was still blank.

Allen sighed and threw the pen on the table.

"Ding, detected that the host has completed the task: The Rise of Agriculture."

"Congratulations to the host. A year has passed. With the help of magical creatures, you have revitalized the once barren land. You have achieved five harvests a year."

"Task evaluation: Excellent, reward upgrade, gained experience points * 300000, incomplete design drawing * 1."

"Incomplete design drawing: This is a technology that does not exist on this continent. It seems to come from a distant other continent. Although the design drawing is incomplete, you may have unexpected discoveries."

"What's going on? The reward upgrade design drawing has actually become incomplete?"

Allen didn't care much about experience points. He had long since looked down on those things.

However, he was very interested in the design drawing.

With a thought, a book appeared in Allen's hand, which looked like it had gone through many years.

However, the surface of this book was pitch black, making it impossible to see the name.

It seemed to have been burned, and many pages were missing from the book. There were even no pages at the end, which looked very miserable.

"It's so broken, can you still see anything?" Allen looked disgusted. He hated things that didn't match up before and after the most.

Allen picked it up and slowly opened the pages. The first thing he saw was a familiar picture - a firearm!

What!

Allen hurriedly opened his eyes wide. That's right, it was the firearm he had been busy with these days!

However, the structure was even rougher than what Allen had drawn. The entire gun body was even a bamboo tube, which didn't seem very reliable.

"This is really shoddy. Can it be used?" Allen looked at the picture. It should be an early firearm.

The further back he flipped, the more complex the structure of the firearm became, and the shapes were also strange.

Allen even saw a firearm similar to the one invented by Lilith and the others, with three barrels.

Seeing the familiar firearm, Allen couldn't help but smile.

As Allen flipped backward, the patterns became more and more exquisite, and the recorded knowledge also increased. "No wonder, to increase the power and range, this thing is indispensable: rifling."

Allen did know before that the bullet rotates when it leaves the muzzle, but he always thought it was a normal situation when the bullet was ejected.

He also didn't notice that the bullets he tested in the alchemy laboratory today didn't have this situation.

The role of rifling is to give the projectile the ability to rotate, so that the projectile can maintain its intended direction after leaving the barrel…

This is the soul of the firearm. It can be said that this one piece of knowledge is worth hundreds of millions of gold coins.

Boltzmann and the others may never think of this method. It's not that they are too stupid, but after all, it is the result of hundreds of years and countless people.

Moreover, in this continent with magic, when they encounter problems, they may subconsciously think of using supernatural powers to solve them.

It's not that this is not good, but it will definitely greatly increase the cost. After all, magic is not something that poor people can afford.

As for the other aspects of this book, a large part of it is about the barrel.

In the early days of firearms, this was the most important thing.

After all, in that era when technology was still somewhat backward, finding a steel that was strong, pressure-resistant, high-temperature resistant, and also had toughness was really a headache.

But now there is no need to worry. Just mixing in some magical materials can perfectly solve this problem, and the cost is not very high. "Allen!"

Allen wanted to continue reading, but he heard Lucy's voice.

"Princess Lucy, you can't go in." The female warrior outside was doing her best to stop Lucy.

"Why can't I see him?"

Allen hurriedly went out and saw Lucy standing outside. "Allen!"

Seeing Allen, Lucy happily rushed over, and Allen hugged Lucy. "Allen, look, we have a new partner again."

Lucy said to Allen 1.7, and Allen also noticed a fairy next to Lucy.

"Did this appear in the Nature Chamber?" Allen said with a smile.

Since knowing that the Elf Chamber is good for those nature spirits and can also produce nature spirits, Lucy often stays there.

However, the previous primary Nature Chamber could only produce nature spirits. After Allen upgraded to the intermediate level, a fairy actually appeared, which was also a pleasant surprise.

"Allen, shall we go outside to play together?" Lucy looked at Allen, her eyes wide open, looking at Allen.

Allen naturally knew that this was Lucy's purpose and couldn't help but smile, "Okay, there's nothing to do anyway." "Great, Allen, I knew you would agree."

Chapter 460: Success

The next day, the alchemy laboratory. "Rifling?"

Boltzmann and the others said in unison, their mouths full of incomprehension. "That's right, this is the most critical part." Allen looked very excited, looking at them.

After returning with Lucy yesterday, Allen finished reading the book, but the biggest gains were only two.

After all, it was just an incomplete design drawing, and some of the more profound knowledge in the back was missing.

However, Allen was not particularly sorry, after all, they were two worlds.

Getting the most basic knowledge is enough. Knowledge and energy are different, and the final development is also different.

At that time, those things will not only be helpful, but will mislead you.

"I tried your gun yesterday and found that the bullets were flying out randomly. In this way, not only is the range short, but it is also inaccurate." "With this rifling, the bullet can be shot out spinning, and the power is very different."

"Your Majesty, can the power be greatly increased by 25 if the bullet comes out spinning?" Boltzmann looked at Allen.

Although someone had said long ago that the king was the son of the god of war, and the king had hardly made any mistakes.

But when it comes to their alchemy field, they are still confident.

After all, Allen has never shown any ability in this area.

Allen didn't say anything. After all, facts prove everything. "Boltzmann, give me the firearm you had yesterday."

Allen took the firearm from yesterday and smiled as he looked at the dark gun barrel.

His fingertips pressed against the barrel, and several white lights rotated and entered the barrel.

The seemingly hard iron pipe became as fragile as tofu under the white light, leaving behind lines.

"Okay." After a while, Allen had completed it.

Turning the firearm over, a small pile of iron filings poured out from the barrel.

Looking at the rotating lines appearing in the gun barrel, Allen smiled with satisfaction.

Although it was his first time doing this, with the strength and control of the legendary realm, it seemed to be doing pretty well? "Where are the bullets?"

Boltzmann hurriedly handed Allen a pile of round iron balls. Allen frowned as he looked at the solid iron balls, but didn't say anything.

This bullet was simpler. Allen waved his hand, and many rotating patterns appeared on the iron ball.

Allen confidently picked up an iron ball and put it into the barrel.

Aim, fire. Bang - This time, it could be clearly seen that the bullet hit the center of the iron plate.

Although it was not exactly in the center, it was countless times better than before.
