Chapter 729: Daydream

Robb raised his head and saw that the dwarf leader had just crawled out of the sewer in front of the chapel and was walking towards the chapel. Lilian’s reminder came right on time.

Robb quickly switched his attention back to Robb Smith's side, walked quickly into the military conference hall, stood in the corner, quietly turned himself into a statue-like decoration, and then quickly switched back. At this time, the dwarf leader had just walked to Robb's side with his dwarf legs.

"Godfather!" The dwarf leader seemed very excited, so excited that his beard was trembling. "We have finally succeeded in developing what you asked us to research last time."

"Oh?" Robb wondered, "What did I ask you to research?"

Recently, Robb had been juggling between two things, with too much work that he couldn't even remember what he had been working on.

"The mortar!" the dwarf leader said.

"Ah?" Robb said, "Has it succeeded? Interesting, bring it here to see."

The dwarf leader took out a cylindrical object with a stand from behind him and placed it in front of Robb. "Godfather, we made this thing using the idea of making short cannons. We filled it with explosives at the bottom, lit it, and could throw the iron bullets far away all at once, very, very far..."

As he spoke, the dwarf leader casually aimed the mortar at the Black Pine Mountains behind the chapel and fired a shot. The shell made a sharp whistle and flew onto the slope, then disappeared with a "puff." It was too far away, and the view was blocked by flowers, plants, and trees, so it was unclear what it had hit, but it was certain that it had only left a big hole on the damp ground on the slope.

The dwarf leader smiled awkwardly. "That's the power of a solid bullet."

"So you have succeeded in developing the mortar, which can shoot two or three miles away," Robb said, "but the problem is that this thing can't shoot the hollow bullets that I suggested, which can explode. It can only shoot the ancient solid bullets, right?"

The dwarf leader nodded vigorously.

Robb frowned, "It’s easily detonated because the hollow shell is not strong enough, which means the shell is too weak. It won't detonate because our technology is not yet advanced enough, and the collision-triggering technology is completely not here yet."

The dwarf leader continued to nod vigorously.
