Flintlock Gun

"Thank you for your hard work, Blacksmith Yuan. All of this is thanks to you." Quan Yi sincerely expressed his gratitude to Blacksmith Yuan.

For the past six months, Blacksmith Yuan has been holed up in his room every day, studying the making of Iron Gun day and night.

"Young Master, you flatter me. This is all I should do," said Blacksmith Yuan modestly.

Although Blacksmith Yuan was quite proud of his forging skills, he knew that the completion of this weapon was all thanks to the Young Master.

The simple weapon contained various ingenious ideas, from which he also benefited greatly.

"Young Master, this is the Iron Gun No. 2 that I made according to your requirements. After testing, it has met all the requirements you put forward before."

As Blacksmith Yuan handed the Iron Gun to Quan Yi, he reported the situation.

Su Ling'er, standing to the side, quickly glanced at the wooden target, also very curious about the power of this Iron Gun.

Su Ling'er has excellent eyesight; she can see objects just fifty meters away clearly.

However, when she saw it, her pupils shrank and she was greatly shocked.

Because she also saw what was behind the target.

Behind the target was a thick brick wall. The test firing range was built with very hard stone, so that ordinary swords could not leave any marks.

But a circular hole appeared in the wall, and a tiny iron ball was embedded inside.

Is this a gun? She had witnessed Quan Yi using Shotgun before, but in her opinion, it was only because of Quan Yi's special First Soul Skill that it could produce such destructive power.

However, the Blacksmith Yuan was able to inflict damage equivalent to Quan Yi's First Soul Skill without using any Soul Skill, which was beyond her comprehension.

Quan Yi took the musket; the cold touch and the pervasive Gunpowder stirred Quan Yi heart.

The gun body is made entirely of metal, and most importantly, the gun has a breech-loading design, and it is Flintlock Gun.

In his previous life, Quan Yi did not have a detailed understanding of firearms.

But he had a general understanding of the history of firearms development.

Early firearms typically involved loading ammunition into the barrel and then connecting the Gunpowder with a long rope. Before firing, the rope was lit, the Gunpowder was aimed at the enemy, and the explosion pressure propelled the bullet forward.

The type of firearm that Quan Yi used was called Flintlock Gun.

This Flintlock Gun was a product of the middle and later stages of gun development. It could load ammunition from the back of the barrel and fire it by pulling the trigger.

This is because it not only greatly improves loading efficiency, but also enhances the stability and accuracy of the weapon.

Quan Yi initially wanted to manufacture the former type of Musket, but Quan Yi discovered that with the technology of the Douluo Continent, it was entirely possible to manufacture a more advanced Flintlock Gun.

"How exquisite! Truly a masterpiece!" Quan Yi he looked at the trigger and hammer.

Besides being lightweight, it also has a beautiful design, Taiyi from his original simple design, which clearly shows that a lot of effort was put into it.

Moreover, Quan Yi could see that this gun surpassed the previous ' Shotgun ' in terms of manufacturing process, especially the connection at the rear of the Gun Barrel, where all the structures were perfectly fitted without the slightest deviation.

In the past six months, Blacksmith Yuan's skills seem to have improved even further.

"Blacksmith could achieve this level of skill after decades of practice. However, what's more important is your creativity, young master. Without your guidance, even with my superb craftsmanship, I could never have created such a weapon."

Moreover, the most important element, Gunpowder, was also invented by you. Without Gunpowder, even the most exquisite Iron Gun is nothing more than an Iron Pipe, utterly useless.

Although Quan Yi's praise pleased Blacksmith Yuan, he dared not be arrogant. The most important part of this Musket was not made by him.

Gunpowder is arguably the most important part of Iron Gun.

It is also Quan Yi's most important invention in the past six months.

Saltpeter, Sulfur, Charcoal are the most basic Gunpowder materials.

But Quan Yi's understanding of Gunpowder was limited to this.

Fortunately, all three of these items exist in the Douluo Continent, and they are all easy to find.

However, Quan Yi n't know the exact proportions. But finding the proportions was just a matter of spending time and effort experimenting one by one.

Therefore, Quan Yi entrusted the research on Gunpowder to his mother, asking her to secretly conduct research and experiments on Gunpowder in other places.

With the investment of time and money, and the experimental methods provided by Quan Yi, a suitable ratio was quickly found.

At the same time, Quan Yi and Blacksmith Yuan studied the design of Iron Gun. With these two approaches working together, they invented the Flintlock Gun in just six months.

Moreover, Quan Yi did not stop there. He was also working on Purification materials and searching for other materials on the Douluo Continent, hoping to create a more powerful Gunpowder.

To maintain secrecy, the research on Gunpowder was conducted in another secret location, so even Blacksmith Yuan was unaware of the specific methods of Gunpowder manufacturing.

With Quan Yi's Gunpowder and Blacksmith Yuan's skill, this powerful weapon was finally born.

Moreover, this is just the beginning; there is still much room for development.

"Can I give it a try?" Quan Yi asked eagerly.

"Of course." Blacksmith Yuan was very confident in his work, and he had also spent a lot of money on the materials.

Therefore, they are not afraid of any safety risks.

In front of Blacksmith Yuan was a large table with a box of Gunpowder and a round iron ball on it.

Although it was the first test launch, as the designer, Quan Yi certainly knew how to operate it.

He skillfully poured Gunpowder into the gun and then loaded the bullet from the Gun Barrel.

Then, he set up his Iron Gun and aimed at the wooden target in the distance.

The Iron Gun weighed several tens of kilograms. For safety, the Blacksmith Yuan specially used the highest grade of Iron Essence as the main material for forging. This material has good toughness and moderate hardness, but its density is too high, making it a bit heavy.

An adult might find it difficult just to lift it up.

However, this weight was nothing to Quan Yi.

This gun differs from Shotgun; the iron ball cannot explode, allowing for area-of-effect attacks.

To hit the target, the gunman needs to aim, aligning the three points (Front Sight, sight, and sight) in a straight line.

Quan Yi decisively pulled the trigger.

The Flint of the hammer strikes, producing a spark. The flame ignites the Gunpowder, causing an explosion. The pressure from the explosion propels the steel bullet forward.

With a loud bang, the iron ball pierced through the wooden plank and embedded itself in the wall in the blink of an eye.

"Click, clang."

Two voices came.

One was the sound of wooden planks being smashed, and the other was the sound of steel hitting the wall.

After the gunshot, Quan Yi put down his Iron Gun, but Su Ling'er's heart remained unsettled for Jiujiu.

After witnessing it firsthand, she discovered that the Musket's destructive power and attack power were comparable to Second Soul Skill.

Moreover, the attack is swift and has a long range, making it difficult for even a Soul Grandmaster Spirit Master dodge if caught off guard.

A Flintlock Gun was enough for someone with no Soul Power to hunt down Soul Grandmaster. What did that mean? Su Ling'er dared not think any further.
