Chapter 328

The mechanical alchemy room of the castle.

Ren sat at the table intently. In his hands, a metal component writhed and deformed like a molten liquid. After countless attempts, he finally stabilized. He nodded in satisfaction and put it in the One side, then picked up another piece of alloy to continue trying.

There are already hundreds of parts on the table.

Each part has different specifications and parameters, and the materials used are also different, such as machine brackets, springs, barrels, magazines... Many parts are also engraved with runes, flowing with the light of energy.

After a while, another part was completed.

"call……"

Ren let out a long breath and rubbed his forehead. After using the activated metal for a long time, it still consumes a lot of mental energy. The finer the structure, the more difficult it is.

This is the longest time he has studied firearms. It started after returning from the Sain Plateau. For more than two months, he spent half a day in the mechanical alchemy room almost every day, and sometimes even a whole day.

But the effort is worth it.

He finally researched a unique firearm that combines the soul gun and the hot weapon of the previous life.

Ren originally planned to cooperate with Bremidt in research, but after the dwarf introduced the craftsmen of Lava Castle to the canyon, he ran back without having time to invite them. Ask the chief craftsman Blestein, he can't explain clearly, it seems that there is something important, related to archaeology.

So he had no choice but to let it go, just to save Bremet from always inquiring about the secrets of the machine gun.

Ren grabbed the parts on the table and quickly assembled them.

Ka Ka Ka...

A few minutes later, a complete soul gun was assembled.

If there are gun fans on the earth here, they can recognize it at a glance. This soul gun looks like AKS74U, which is also a variant of AK47. It is a very classic short-barreled assault rifle. The handle and the barrel handguard were replaced with metal, and the whole body was black. The length of the entire gun was only fifty centimeters, and at first glance it looked like a submachine gun.

The seemingly short gun body weighed 20 pounds. It was made of a variety of magic alloys and carved with runes to dissipate heat and stabilize it.

The gun can only be held with one hand because there is no stock and grip.

It is definitely not good for ordinary people to use. It is difficult to control when shooting, but it is just right in the hands of the spear wing knight. The spear-wing knights are superhumans, and their bronze body gives them great power. After merging with the first main soul, their power grows again. There is no problem in holding the soul gun alone.

Ren never thought of equiping the Gunwing Knight with the Rambo Gun.

If you do this, it is almost impossible to keep the secret of Rambo's gun. There are more than 300 people, and the bullets are not available at all. Moreover, the weight of Rambo's gun is more than 200 pounds, and the ammunition box may be 400 to 500 pounds. Only A first-level gunwing knight can pick it up, but can't shoot flexibly.

Even the Rambo guns of the Ultramarines, he is planning to eliminate them and replace them with the soul guns he researched.

Ren loaded the arc magazine, aimed it at the wall of the mechanical alchemy room, and pulled the trigger.

Da da da……

A burst of rapid gunfire rang out, and within ten seconds, the magazine of thirty bullets was emptied.

"It's powerful, it's almost worse than the Rambo's gun, and its rate of fire and range are only half. After all, it's a short-barreled gun. It's already very good to be able to do this."

Ryan's satisfactory self-evaluation.

In his vision, the fighting style of the Gunwing Knight needs to be flexible, not limited to being a gunner, so the soul gun is made to be held in one hand, so that the other hand can hold a long sword, and it needs close combat When , will never be at a loss what to do.

The magazine that was finished just now used conventional gunpowder bullets, which did not trigger the rune effect.

Ren activated the activated metal, fused the parts of the gun body that did not need to move into one, and even completely sealed the window for ejecting the shells.

Immediately, the runes on the soul gun were excited, sending out a chill.

Lane switched to a different magazine and fired again.

Da da da, amidst a burst of violent gunshots, the rune of the soul gun lit up, and the rate of fire was faster. Thirty rounds of bullets were fired in about eight seconds, and the power of each bullet increased slightly.

And, no shell casings are ejected!

This is its biggest highlight, using caseless ammunition.

Ryan devoted himself to research for more than two months, and the most important result was the production of a caseless bullet.

In the previous life on the earth, caseless ammunition was born very early. The charge was made into a solid block and connected to the warhead. The firing pin ignited the gunpowder and fired the warhead without leaving ashes.

There are many advantages of caseless ammunition, one is that the bullet is light and can carry more ammunition; the other is that it does not need to eject the shell, which simplifies the structure of the firearm, can completely close the receiver, prevents dust or debris from entering the chamber, and prolongs the use of the firearm life.

But caseless bullets also have a fatal disadvantage, that is, spontaneous combustion.

The heat from the shot remains in the chamber, and new bullets may ignite as soon as they enter. On the earth, caseless bullets have not been popularized precisely because they cannot solve the problem of spontaneous combustion, and have shortcomings such as waterproof, high temperature resistance, and difficult storage.

Wren hadn't even thought of making caseless ammunition.

However, in the process of researching the soul gun, he discovered that the propellant of the soul gun bullet, that is, "phlogiston", turned out to be a solid mixed with magic metal, which could control deformation with activated metal.

Moreover, the ignition point of phlogiston is very high, so it needs soul power to ignite through the runes on the soul gun.

These two characteristics immediately made Ren think of caseless ammunition.

After hundreds of attempts, he finally made the phlogiston into a shell, and then filled it with propellant from the earth, forming a unique caseless shell.

When firing a gun, the rune is used to excite the phlogiston shell, generating high temperature, igniting the internal propellant, generating a huge thrust, and ejecting the bullet, with only a small amount of gas remaining in the barrel. The next bullet goes into the chamber, because the ignition point of the phlogiston shell is very high, and it is not afraid of spontaneous combustion.

The most important thing is that the phlogiston used in caseless bullets is only one-twentieth that of normal soul gun bullets.

The power of ordinary phlogiston bullets depends on the amount of soul power invested.

And the soul power of the gunner is very limited. Even if a first-level gunner uses the least powerful phlogiston bullet, he can only fire a dozen shots at most before venting. The endurance is very bad.

In essence, the shooter is also a spellcaster.

The soul gun is the gunner's staff, an indispensable medium for casting spells. However, most gunners have low levels of soul transformation, limited aptitude, can't master meditation, and don't have the soul power of the caster.

This is also the main reason why gunners are at the bottom of the extraordinary profession.

Even if the gunner has cultivated to the middle level or even the high level, the soul power will increase greatly, but the soul power required by the phlogiston bullet will also increase sharply. The more powerful the gun skill, the less he dares to use it indiscriminately. ease.

Allenus has never developed an automatic rifle or machine gun. It is also because of the limitation of soul power that a swarm of phlogiston bullets is shot out quickly. Before the enemy is dead, the shooter himself falls down first.

Caseless bullets solve this problem very well.

The phlogiston shell no longer determines the power of the bullet, but only serves as a primer to ignite the propellant, which can greatly save soul power, and the number of bullets that can be fired has increased by dozens of times!

Da da da……

Ryan fired continuously, emptying a dozen magazines.

He only held the gun with one hand, and the body of the gun was as stable as Mount Tai. In fact, the recoil was not small in his hand, but it didn't seem to exist in his hand. Hundreds of bullets hit a hole the size of a fist. With so many bullets fired non-stop, the soul gun heated up slightly, and multiple ice runes dissipated heat at the same time, emitting a faint mist.

When a thousand bullets were fired, the soul gun was still working steadily.

Ren stopped in satisfaction.

"that's it."

He didn't try again, and glanced at the phone interface. A thousand rounds of ammunition consumed three bars of battery. I am an eighth-level wizard, and my soul power is much higher than that of the gunner. Even wizards of the same level are far behind. It is normal to only consume three batteries.

If you were a first-level gunwing knight, you should only be able to shoot 300 to 400 shells without cases.

Ren picked up a caseless bullet. Its shape was completely different from ordinary bullets. The shell was in the shape of a cuboid, covering the bullet with only a small tip exposed.

If such bullets are popularized, the combat effectiveness of gunmen all over the world will increase dramatically, and they may become the most popular extraordinary profession in a sudden change.

But it cannot be used by ordinary people, and its impact on the world is far less than that of pure gunpowder firearms.

"It's better to be cautious, and it can't be rumored for the time being."

Ren learned that many well-known powerful soul guns have adopted dimensional technology, and a magazine can hold tens of thousands of bullets. Not only does it not need to change the magazine, but the bullets are hidden in the dimensional space. The corresponding unlocking method can't take out the bullet.

He currently lacks the materials and the corresponding knowledge, so he can't make it for the time being.

When you master the dimensional magazine in the future, you don't have to worry about the bullet leaking out.

Putting down the soul gun, Ren decided to give it a name.

"Let's call it a submachine gun. It's simple and easy to remember, and it looks similar to a submachine gun, but its power is equivalent to an assault rifle."

After confirming the design and name, he immediately began to mass-produce submachine guns.

The magic metal that had been prepared earlier was moved over, and the activated metal was fully operational. In just two or three hours, fifty brand new submachine guns were manufactured.

Under the grasp of the metal touch, each submachine gun is in the same performance and size.

Ryan knew the quality was fine without trying the gun.

An Ultramarine knocked on the door and came out with a happy face, saying, "Boss, the dwarves over the canyon have informed that Fort Vajra has been completed."

"So fast?"

Ren couldn't help being surprised, he was busy researching submachine guns, and it has been a few days.

After careful calculation, it has been less than 70 days since the start of construction, which is a full 20 days shorter than the three-month construction period stipulated in the contract.

Ren put away all the submachine guns and stepped into the teleportation array.

The scene in front of him changed, and a wide hall appeared. It was originally a cave that Rennes smashed on the rock wall. After the expansion of the dwarf craftsman, it was completely different.

The teleportation array is located in the middle of the hall, with a ceiling height of more than fifteen meters. The entire hall is a huge hexagon with a diameter of more than 100 meters. s room.

The chief mason of Lava Castle, Blestein, led more than two hundred dwarves, waiting outside the teleportation array.

"My lord!"

Blestein said in a very loud voice: "Fort Vajra has been built, please check and accept it, if there is no problem, we will leave after paying."

"Okay." Ren nodded happily.

The alchemy room, the armory, the prayer and meditation room, the mechanical workshop, and the warehouse, these five areas surround the teleportation hall, which are designed by himself, so there is no need to check them again.

Of the six passages in the teleportation hall, the largest one leads to the canyon.

Ren walked in a passage with a width and height of more than eight meters. There were crystal lamps on the walls, and the light was very bright. After a hundred meters, he officially entered the fortress.

The entire fortress is made of diamond rock, built on the hillside, covering up the passage into the teleportation hall. The fortress has three floors, and each floor has an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters. The canteen, martial arts field, and dormitory have all kinds of functions.

Walking out of the fortress, there is a wide open space outside the main gate, surrounded by a tall semi-curved city wall.

Three entrances and exits were opened on the city wall more than ten meters high.

Going out from the left is a huge shooting range. The farthest target is a kilometer away, reaching the end of the canyon. The building of the shooting range is equipped with a soundproof circle, so that the internal gunshots will never come out.

The exit on the right leads to the large playground, which is enough to accommodate thousands of people to train together. On the side of the playground, a long stable has been built at the foot of the canyon wall rock. At present, it can only accommodate 2,000 bronze galloping horses. Then expand.

Dozens of huge caves have also been excavated in the rock wall above the canyon, which can allow the fire dragon to inhabit it.

There are also several sentry towers hidden in high places.

All the buildings are made of diamond rock, which is durable and beautiful, showing the superb craftsmanship of the dwarves.

Ren could not be more satisfied.

The things I drew on the design drawings became real objects in only 70 days. This speed not only exceeded my expectations, but also the degree of completion was extremely high, fast and good. No one could do better than the dwarves .

"Lord, how are you?" Blestein asked confidently.

"Very good!" Ren admired sincerely: "The dwarf really deserves to be the best master builder in the world, and I am very satisfied."

Hearing this praise, all the dwarves showed pride on their faces.

Ryan readily paid the other half of the salary, and wanted to invite the dwarves to the celebration banquet, but they refused. It has been more than two months since the dwarves left Lava Castle. Most of them have families and are very homesick. Ren can only say goodbye with regret.

"Master Blestein, I look forward to having opportunities to cooperate in the future." Standing on the side of the teleportation line, Ren said sincerely.

"Then I will wait for your news." The strong dwarf smiled rarely, "Your lord is welcome to visit Lava Castle at any time."

After speaking, he entered the portal.

After Ren closed the portal, he immediately cut off the coordinate connection with the dwarven teleportation array, and then walked out of the fortress and stood on the city wall in the eyes of the Ultramarines.

Ten minutes later, a large group of bronze galloping horses came across the sky.

More than 300 majestic bronze galloping horses, shining with green light all over their bodies, turned over the rock wall above the canyon, swooped down, and ran happily on the playground.
