Maxim Heavy Machine Gun
After arranging things at Lou Gao, Quan Yi went to the First Blacksmith Shop.
Unlike the Lou Gao, the First Blacksmith Shop carried another important task.
That is weapons development.
During that year, Quan Yi and Blacksmith Yuan developed firearms to match Smokeless Gunpowder gunpowder.
Since Quan Yi changed the bullets to metal-cased fixed bullets.
The development of firearms completely departed from the firearms of the Black Powder era.
In order to Great Limit the use of Smokeless Gunpowder gunpowder metal cartridge cases, Quan Yi and Blacksmith Yuan jointly developed a terrifying weapon.
Today is the day to officially test its power.
It was created before Quan Yi went to the Star Dou Great Forest, but due to its powerful performance, the existing Shooting Range is simply unable to fully test its data.
Therefore, Quan Yi decisive decision to build a special Shooting Range.
Quan Yi arrived at the Research Institute, entered the room, and found it empty.
Quan Yi was not surprised and quickly walked to a corner of the room.
The corner of the room was empty, but when Quan Yi pressed down on a part of the wall, the smooth surface dented as he pressed down.
"Snap!"
The sound of machinery turning filled the air, and the ground in front of Quan Yi slowly rose up, revealing a staircase extending downwards.
Quan Yi slowly walked down the stairs, and as Quan Yi went deeper, the wide-open entrance gradually closed.
After the entrance closed, a soft, dim light emanated from the end of the passage, ensuring that one could see their footing.
The staircase descended straight down, about four or five stories deep, Quan Yi entered an incredibly spacious underground space.
The underground space is about two kilometers long and wide, and six meters high, with all six sides covered by hard granite.
Various lamp-shaped Soul Tool were embedded in the walls, providing light to the dim underground space.
Under the light, Quan Yi could see that firing channels had been drawn in the underground space.
Quan Yi's position is the shooting position, and the opposite side is where the shooting targets are located.
However, the shortest shooting target here is at least 300 meters away.
The furthest one was placed right next to the opposite wall, which was two kilometers away.
Just as Quan Yi was admiring the newly built Underground Shooting Range, Blacksmith Yuan, who was setting up something in the distance, noticed Quan Yi's arrival.
He stood in the middle firing position and waved to Quan Yi, saying, "Young Master!"
Quan Yi walked up to Blacksmith Yuan and asked, "Why are you here all alone?"
Blacksmith Yuan touched the huge gun barrel on the firing table and said, "I'm not entirely comfortable leaving this thing here, so I come to check on it every day these days."
Quan Yi's gaze followed Blacksmith Yuan to the firing platform, where he saw a strangely shaped firearm standing.
It consists of a gun body and a tripod, so it can stand upright on a flat surface without anyone having to hold it up.
Even more peculiar is the belt on one side of the gun, which is connected to a string of metal cartridge cases.
Quan Yi looked at it with burning passion, and the name of its previous life flashed through his mind.
Maxim Heavy Machine Gun.
Quan Yi smiled and said, "I want to test its power now."
Blacksmith Yuan replied, "I have made preparations these past few days, Young Master can test its power at any time."
Blacksmith Yuan stepped aside to make way for Quan Yi.
Quan Yi the side and gripped the handle behind the gun.
The cold metallic feel from his palm did nothing to extinguish the burning passion in Quan Yi's heart.
Quan Yi straightened his gun and looked ahead. He saw a thick steel plate placed a kilometer away from the end of the passage.
Moreover, this was only the first one; behind it, several steel plates, each equidistant from the others, were neatly stacked.
With his eyes fixed ahead, Quan Yi decisively fired the first bullet.
"Clap clap clap clap clap"
In an instant, a brilliant flash of light erupted from the cold gun barrel, and countless bullets rained down, rapidly striking the steel plate a kilometer away.
"Clang clang clang clang."
In an instant, the massive steel plate, five centimeters thick, was riddled with holes by Quan Yi's heavy machine gun.
"Bang!"
In less than thirty seconds, the foremost steel plate collapsed with a crash, and the second steel plate behind it began to withstand the attack of the heavy machine gun.
The strong Gunpowder, the sound of bullets hitting steel plates, and the clanging of spent cartridge cases falling together created a horrific sound of death.
Such a sound, if placed on the ground, would definitely be noticed by the people around.
No wonder Quan Yi wanted to build the Shooting Range deep underground.
The loud bang and flash of light lasted only a minute; the gun stopped firing after that.
The hundreds of bullets loaded on the ammunition belt were used up in just one minute.
Quan Yi looked at the two steel plates pierced by the machine gun and shouted, "Awesome! Blacksmith Yuan, we did it!"
Blacksmith Yuan stood there completely stunned, staring blankly at the terrifying scene before him.
Although Blacksmith Yuan, as the forger, knew its power best, this understanding was theoretical.
Today, having witnessed its true power firsthand, Blacksmith Yuan was extremely excited.
"Young Master, we succeeded."
Quan Yi was still not satisfied and asked Blacksmith Yuan, "Are there any more bullets?"
Blacksmith Yuan opened the Ammunition Box next to him, carried it to the side, and reloaded the ammunition for Quan Yi.
Quan Yi gripped the gun handle again and fired forward.
"Tap tap tap tap".
As Quan Yi controlled the bullets, the line of bullets carved a circle on the third steel plate.
One minute later, the new ammunition belt was used up.
Blacksmith Yuan immediately took out a new ammunition belt and seamlessly attached it to Quan Yi Quan Yi continued to shoot at the steel plate.
When the third ammunition belt was used up, the cold barrel emitted a piercing steam sound.
White steam emanated from a channel on one side of the gun barrel.
This is Cold Water Pipe designed to cool down the hot gun barrel.
Therefore, its barrel is also thicker than other gun barrels.
Quan Yi unleashed his full power, using five ammunition belts and over a thousand bullets to unleash his fury on the steel plate in just a few minutes.
Once the moisture inside the gun barrel had evaporated completely and all the prepared bullets had been used up, Quan Yi reluctantly let go of his hands.
He laughed loudly, "Blacksmith Yuan, with this, our Quan Family will have the power to change the entire continent."
With burning passion in his heart, Blacksmith Yuan gazed at Quan Yi and said, "Yes, Young Master, with this, no matter what kind of Spirit Master we face, we can subdue them with bullets."
In its mind, there was a scene where the enemy brought tens of thousands of soldiers to an empty battlefield.
On their side, all they need to do is build a defensive line and place a dozen machine guns loaded with countless bullets.
A dozen minutes later, countless steel bullets pierced through the bodies of tens of thousands of people, leaving behind countless pools of bright red blood on the ground.
Such a terrifying weapon sent a chill down Blacksmith Yuan's spine.
