Monster Hunt: Notes From a Hunter

Chapter 475 Mushroom Cloud

Although the journey was not the farthest, Hayata was the last to return to the village due to the round trip overland and the two days of recovering from injuries in the camp after the hunt.

Seeing that she was not seriously injured, Gordon was completely relieved.

Xianglan inevitably received a round of ridicule from Zhupa. Half of the hair that had been bald by the flames of the Sakura Fire Dragon could not grow back in a few days.

It is estimated that it will take another month or two before it can confidently say "I am the cutest!" with arms akimbo as before.

The materials for blending high-density dragon-killing carbon have been collected, and the next step is for Pig Chops to take action.

Pork Chop first carefully counted the quantities of various materials, "Five gunpowder rocks, six units of blaster dragon's bone marrow, four units of fire dragon's bone marrow, and ten units of dragon-killing fruit."

Uh, meow, meow, meow, according to the formula, the ratio of materials required for high-density dragon-killing carbon is about one to one: one to three meow. If it doesn't fail, you should be able to concoct three parts of meow.

Since it must be mixed on site, I hope to test it once first, so that there will only be two copies that can really be used."

Anhil, who was watching from the sidelines, suggested, "The quantity is limited by the dragon-killing fruit, but the function of the dragon-killing fruit should only provide dragon-attribute energy, right? It won't affect the blending of the explosives?"

Is it possible that the dragon-killing fruit is not used during the test, or only one is used. In this case, three copies can be used, and the certainty is greater. "

"That makes sense, nya!"

Pig Chop nodded heavily, "I've never dealt with dragon-killing fruit before, but it shouldn't be too complicated, meow. It should be enough to practice with one, meow!"

"Huhu, I can teach you this, it's very simple." Hilda said with a smile.

Unlike Gordon and Hayata, who could only watch, the two shooters had a lot of experience in mixing explosives. At times like this, they could make some suggestions and help.

"The transportation problem of gunpowder rock is also relatively big."

Anhil looked at the big round stones, "A bottle of bone marrow is only about 500 milliliters, and the dragon-killing fruit is not big, so it is not difficult to carry, but this gunpowder rock

It can't even be stuffed into a bag, and it's still explosive. You can't carry it into a hunting ground alone. It's too dangerous. "

"Is it possible to pre-process it in advance?"

Hilda came to the soft cushion on which the gunpowder rock was placed and observed carefully, "Most of it should be sand, limestone and other impurities. There shouldn't be too many real active ingredients. Find a way to extract it?"

"It should be possible, but the extraction process needs to be very careful. Maybe you can soak it in water? It shouldn't change when it comes into contact with water. It doesn't matter if it dissolves in water. You can dry it out later." Pork Chop He kept scratching his beard and thinking hard.

Anhil nodded his chin, "You have to try it. There are just as many gunpowder rocks as there are. We can take one and split it. Try a few more times. If we can extract effective substances, not to mention being easy to carry, the final product should also be powerful. Improved.”

“But it’s not without its shortcomings, nya.”

Pig Chop almost pulled his beard off, "The original gunpowder rock is so explosive. After extracting the effective substances and losing the passivation of impurities, the instability will be greatly increased."

Hilda moved her gaze away from the gunpowder rock and said with a smile: "Just like Ancier said, divide it into small portions and try it a few times. Even extremely unstable substances that can explode when exposed to air can be found. method to save.

Water immersion, oil immersion, freezing

If you really can't find a way, then consider how to transport the complete gunpowder rock. "

In the following days, Pig Chop, Ancil and Hilda took various tools and headed into the small valley outside the village.

When conducting experiments in the village, I am afraid that the house will be damaged.

A few days later, Pork Chop and the others finally got results, but the cost was that half of the hair on the former's body was burnt.

Pandan: Happy!

From a single gunpowder rock with an average weight of more than 20 kilograms, about three to four kilograms of dark red powdery substance was extracted.

According to Pork Chop, even if fire dragon bone marrow is not added, the explosive power of this extremely unstable powder far exceeds almost all known gunpowder formulas.

Naturally, such a dangerous thing cannot be just put into a cloth bag and carried away. They kept the powder in a sealed glass bottle filled with kerosene without leaving a trace of air.

After handling it in this way, as long as you carry it carefully, there will be no big problem.

Hilda and Ancil couldn't help much with the next step of adjusting the high-density dragon-killing carbon, which required more professional knowledge of explosives.

Ordinary people, even hunters who often use various explosive bombs, may accidentally make a mistake.

That's not a hair loss-level accident.

Another day passed, and the hunters saw the finished product in that small valley.

"I thought it would take more time."

Gordon asked curiously: "After all, it took more than half a week to purify the gunpowder rock. Why is it so fast?"

Pork Chop put his hands on his hips and said, "That's because the process of preparing dragon-killing carbon is not complicated. It only takes more than half an hour to master it. You just need to be extremely careful."

"Is half an hour enough?"

This statement made Gordon quite happy. Since it requires on-site deployment, the faster the speed, the lower the probability of problems.

“So where is the finished product?”

"That's it, meow!"

Pig Chop pointed at a pottery jar on the ground that was not much bigger than an ordinary small barrel bomb. It contained, or rather contained, a sticky, pungent orange-red jelly.

It looked a bit like magma.

"Why is it liquid?"

Ansel couldn't help asking: "High-density dragon-killing carbon, it sounds like it should be a solid, right? Is there really no problem with the blending process?"

The questioned Pig Chop said angrily: "No, meow! Because the impurities in the gunpowder rock have been discarded, the purity is actually higher meow!

And it is a 'prototype' high-density dragon-killing carbon, a prototype meow! It is called a prototype meow because the semi-fluid is not stable enough and is not convenient for storage and transportation. It must be blended before use!"

Gordon pulled Ansel to the back and said excitedly: "Don't pay attention to him, this guy is just suspicious, hurry up and click to see the effect?"

He wants to see a big bang!

Pork Chop looked around, "Where to try it?"

Gordon casually pointed to a crack in the cliff, "Stick it in there?"

"No! It will cause a landslide!"

"Not really." Gordon was a little unconvinced.

Hayata also looked around, and she pointed to a relatively flat area in the distance and suggested: "How about putting it in the middle of that flat ground?

We just want to see the explosion effect, not to blow anything up. We should be able to judge the power through the explosion crater left on the ground."

"Good idea."

"I'll move it!"

Gordon wanted to move the pottery jar excitedly, but was driven away by Pork Chop waving his paw.

"Don't touch it!"

Gordon withdrew his hand embarrassedly, and finally Pork Chop held the pottery jar himself, carefully placed it in the middle of the flat ground, and then took a can of gunpowder and poured out a fuse that was 30 meters long.

"You guys move away meow."

"The fuse has been pulled thirty meters away, is it not enough?"

"Not enough meow! Far from enough, at least a hundred meters meow!" Pig Chop bared his teeth and claws, leaving no room for maneuver.

Gordon was a little reluctant, he wanted to watch the big bang up close, but fortunately, whether it was Anshil, Hilda or Hayata, they were relatively cautious.

He was dragged far enough away.

At the end of the gunpowder line, Pig Chop took a deep breath and scratched the ground with his claws. The sparks ignited the gunpowder, and it immediately turned around and ran wildly.

After dozens of seconds, the flames rushed to the pottery jar.

The strong fire comparable to the flash bomb dazzled the eyes of people in the distance, and a golden-red mushroom cloud rose in the depths of the small canyon.

"Boom boom boom--!"
