Your Majesty, the Spectacle Has Missed the Country!

Chapter 90 Three-masted Ship (Part 1)

After listening to Bruno's explanation of the term bomb, everyone present felt heavy pressure.

Because... what Bruno described was a weapon that had never appeared in this world.

This kind of weapon is different from the previously manufactured or researched enchanted weapons, because those enchanted weapons are only strengthened and upgraded on the basis of the original weapons.

As for the bomb, there is absolutely no precedent to learn from, and it is completely up to them, the mage apprentices, to explore and develop it themselves.

To create a brand new weapon from scratch, is this the entry test given by the Earl?

After Wright heard Bruno's request, he couldn't help but grit his teeth...

This is indeed an... extremely difficult task!

"At the same time, since bombs are one-time consumables, it is particularly important to reduce the cost of making bombs as much as possible while developing bombs!"

Bruno paused, looked around, then lowered his voice and added seriously: "Especially when it comes to the use of magic crystals, you must try to save as much as possible! Looking at the entire Idar Territory, I only have one magic crystal in total. It’s just a vein! If you use one piece today and another piece tomorrow, wouldn’t it only take a few hundred years for it to be used up?”

Wright nodded quickly, convinced.

"When making bombs here... the most important things are two aspects. On the one hand, safety. You must have proper safety measures to avoid explosions during the research and development process. On the other hand, pay attention to controlling the bomb. Regarding the power of the explosion, it is best for you to have a measurement standard and understand the different methods of making bombs with different powers."

"And this is because, in some special circumstances, more powerful bombs are not necessarily better. On the contrary, slightly smaller destructive power can produce better effects."

Bruno said from the side, while Anel, Wright and others recorded all of this in small notebooks.

Since arriving in Idar Territory, these mage apprentices have also used this kind of white paper as thin as cicada wings.

The biggest advantage of this kind of paper is that it is easy to carry. You can just put a few sheets in your pocket and write down any new ideas immediately.

Although I don't know how much such paper costs, but just looking at such a thin and light material, I can guess that it is expensive.

It is said... that in order to make these new types of paper, the Earl almost sold everything and spent all his wealth...

Most of the raw materials required are precious raw materials imported from the Kingdom of Basel, and the price of a piece of paper is almost half a month's wages of ordinary civilians...

However, such valuable papers were piled up in the laboratory in the Almis Mountains as if they were free of charge, for them, the mage apprentices, to use at will.

Thinking of this, the mage apprentices who were recording on the white paper felt warm in their hearts.

Seeing how carefully the mage apprentices used paper, Bruno knew that the rumor that the paper was extremely expensive had played its due role.

After all... in this era with such a low literacy rate, writing with a pen is mostly something that only nobles or mages can do.

Therefore, at least for now, most of the potential customers of paper are wealthy people. Therefore, Bruno must first create an illusion that paper is particularly precious.

Then, he could plunder more money from those stingy nobles.

This is just like the whiskey and vodka sold in Idarland. The consumer groups for vodka are mainly passing mercenaries, businessmen and craftsmen with some spare money, and other lower-class people who have relatively decent living conditions.

Whiskey, on the other hand, is much more expensive than vodka, and its main customers are wealthy businessmen and lords and nobles from various places.

Through such a product marketing strategy, the liquor produced by Idarling can earn more profits.

In fact, to be honest, are the costs of these two distilled spirits really so different?

of course not!

However, if other nobles know the wine they drink, and other common people at the lowest level will also drink it, how can the difference of being a noble be reflected?

Therefore, the nobles are not only drinking wine, but also showing their dignity as nobles!

Regarding the topic of bombs, Bruno only pointed out a few of the most important points and key points that these mage apprentices needed to pay attention to, and then let them develop it on their own.

After all, the principle of bombs does not sound difficult, but what is difficult is how to use magic circles and other magic components to create magic bombs unique to this world.

Just like Bruno's previous life, almost everyone knows the black powder formula of monosulfide, dinitrate, and charcoal, but if you really traveled through time, could you make it?

I'm afraid even if you know the formula, you won't be able to make it because you don't even know what sulfur and saltpeter look like.

In fact, Bruno's original idea was to take a shortcut and purchase the enhanced gunpowder formula and related raw materials directly in the system mall. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

However, under the column related to gunpowder, there was a line of small red words that made Bruno give up the idea.

[Note: This product is not compatible with the world system it is in]

It was only then that this magical world showed Bruno how different it was from the earth.

Since gunpowder on the earth cannot be used, Bruno can only place the task of developing bombs on these mage apprentices.

At the same time, Bruno also plans to send further personal guards to the Armis Mountains to ensure the safety of the laboratory.

After sending away these mage apprentices, Bruno finally found time to activate the system again.

The completion of the construction of Namur Fortress brought Bruno a huge fortune of 150 Brilliance Points. Since he was rich, he naturally had the confidence to visit the system mall.

Bruno has been salivating for all the products displayed in the system mall for a long time.

Coupled with the threat from the pirate leader Kelvin Prato, Bruno urgently needs a reliable warship blueprint to resist the pirates from the Kingdom of Basel.

The system mall provides a variety of shipbuilding drawings, from the simplest small wooden valve to the ironclad ship of the industrial era. All kinds of drawings are on sale.

Bruno, on the other hand, naturally set his sights on the [three-masted sailboat] that was common in the age of sail.
