. Boom boom boom!
A deafening explosion sounded suddenly, and even the floor under the feet shook in the violent explosion.
"It should be about time now, Master Lou Gao, please come in!" Davis 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 mirror image in front of him, even the knowledgeable Lou Gao was shocked.
The hard iron barrel had been completely shattered, and it broke into countless iron pieces scattered on the ground in the explosion. At the same time, the iron plate on the 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, and felt 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 the defensive war soul emperor will be injured!"
Li Hu looked at Davis' back again, and he found that he really couldn't see through this prince.
These days, Li Hu felt too much shock from Davis. First, he fought against the dark gold fear claw bear, and his luck was bursting, and he got the external soul bone.
The second is the ten thousand year whale glue. I thought Davis was just like an ordinary playboy, but I didn't expect that after taking whale glue, he broke through 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 Davis's back, Li Hu was very curious. If one day, he really became the emperor of Xingluo, then where will the Xingluo 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, Davis 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.
Davis 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 a 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, these black gunpowder already have 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, Davis continued to lure: "Master has also seen that such a small amount of black gunpowder is enough to injure the 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 Davis, 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, put his face?
For many years, Lou Gao has been wanting to create a weapon that is 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 Davis'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 I can make a powerful weapon?"
Davis 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, Davis 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.
Davis needs a large number of bullets, hundreds of thousands of them, only in this way can he form firepower coverage on the enemy in the war.
Lou Gao is old, and he can't let him make bullets there every day, right? Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Davis 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 only asked for 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!"
